Chapter 1651: Lifting the Shackles


The flashbang plus auto-shotgun burst tactics work well most of the time, especially against basilisks who don't even know what flashbangs are.When Deathstroke leads the girls to the center of the chamber in the deepest part of the underground network, there is only a strange huge stone statue that occupies an entire wall, and there is no shadow of a basilisk.After the professor said, 'Speak to me, Slytherin, the greatest of the Big Four,' the statue's mouth opened, and the sound of something rubbing in the pipes began.Hermione threw out a flashbang directly, turned her head to avoid the bright light, and fired wildly at the pre-anticipated position.When I opened my eyes a few seconds later, I saw that the basilisk was dead.The serpent's entire head was gone, and part of its body was missing, and it now looked like a Slytherin statue with a thick black noodle in its mouth."

That's it?

Isn't it a little too simple?

”She looked at her hand with some suspicion, and then at the gun in her hand.There are so many books about how difficult the basilisk is to deal with and how dangerous it is to people, but this golden bullet is so special that it seems to be able to penetrate any defense.Su Ming took out the godkiller to skin the basilisk, and the fangs didn't know where they flew, but the scales were still intact.Put it away for her first, and make a uniform after her height is finalized in the future, of course, you have to find the god of fire for casting, and the materials have to be mixed with n metal and promethium metal."

That's it, now that you know all the weaknesses of the enemy and have a full set of plans in advance, what will be the difficulty?"

The professor forcibly peeled off the snakeskin's skin as if he had taken off his socks and put it in his bag: "It's nothing more than a young dragon, how much time do you want to delay with it?"

”"It's not a dragon," Hermione was a little speechless, as if she didn't even have the strength to hold a gun.After preparing for so long, it turned out to be over in less than thirty seconds after meeting, which is not right at all."

Alright, if you don't plan to eat it, then leave the corpse here, I'll tell the headmaster what happened in the secret room, but if you want a reward, it's estimated that the winter vacation is over."

Su Ming clapped his hands and dragged the smooth snake flesh out of the stone statue's mouth and coiled it into a lump.Hermione shook her head, and the other two girls behind her also looked helpless, got into the sewer of the bathroom, and walked in the dark and smelly place for nearly fifteen minutes, and finally didn't even see what the basilisk looked like, and that was the end of it?"

I want to see a real dragon, the one with wings and four legs."

Hermione stared at the professor with a pitiful attack."

Well, it's not impossible, if we fly to Wales now, we might be able to go to Hogsmeade Village for a while when we kill a few green dragons."

The professor shook off his hand full of blood and took off his tie, which turned into a flying carpet again, "But it's illegal to hunt dragons without the approval of the Ministry of Magic, and we have to do it secretly."

Give you some black cloths and cover your faces. ”Hermione doesn't care if it's illegal anymore, she said to slay dragons before, but there are no dragons today, and the psychological gap makes her very unwilling.Anyway, she wants to see the dragon today, and whether she kills it or not is another matter.She picked up the black handkerchief, not noticing that it seemed to be prepared by the professor a long time ago, and put it on her face.Before she knew it, this was the first time she broke the law.Su Ming was very satisfied with this, he never cared if he could kill the dragon, what he cared about was how to make the law and common sense no longer become shackles that constrained the development of apprentices.The more people in the modern civilized world have this problem, all kinds of rules are everywhere, and Hermione has to learn to ignore the rules of some people before she can make her own rules in the future.Now that she has completed her more basic courses in this area, she has made a good start under the temptation of the death knell, and the illegal activities have been carried out naturally.But the rest depends on how she goes in the next few years.The cloak led the three of them out of a sewer above their heads, turned left and right, rushed out of the sewage outlet, and disappeared into the darkness of the night.That night, Hermione not only fulfilled the dragon's wish to slay the dragon, but also received a package from Ollivanders, a promised gift, a second wand, and a short letter.The scribbled handwriting illustrates the situation, the new wand was made of exactly the same material as her original, nine and three-quarters an inch long, with vine wood, and even the core of the wand was the same dragon's heart chord, the dragon's heartstring.This is the secret of how a wizard drives two wands, that they choose the user, and that they recognize the same person most of the time.The new wand is the unregistered kind, and she can use it to do shady things without worrying about being monitored by the Ministry of Magic, which is said to be the case with many successful wizards.But Hermione didn't care anymore, having a shotgun and tactical thinking was enough for her, and she cared more about Horcruxes and the Dark Lord, as well as the so-called mystery of the Seven.There were also some things that happened during the holidays, such as Headmaster Dumbledore retrieving the Gold Cup, asking the physical education professor to purify it again, and he seemed to be relaxing a lot after disposing of three Voldemort's Horcruxes in one semester.And the mouse that the professor played with that day turned out to be a person, I heard that it was related to an unjust case in the wizarding world, Hermione didn't know very well, but I heard that Harry Potter cried until he fell unconscious in the common room where no one was on vacation, which was very embarrassing.The departure of students has emptied the campus a lot, but it has little impact on Ravenclaw, and the people in this college don't seem to realize what a holiday or holiday is.Maybe it's only on Christmas Day that they come out of the lounge, go to the prom to have a bite to eat, and then retract back, right?

The days just slipped away quickly.Hermione couldn't sit in the break room like those people, and she thought she might have too much energy to exercise too often, so she wore a scarf and ran around the Black Lake the day before Christmas.High-top snow boots didn't save her much effort, but at least they were warm, and she just had to grab her scarf and not let it fall off.At this moment, she suddenly saw Professor Snape and Professor Wilson, who were standing on the covered bridge between the main castle building and the stargazing tower, as if chatting as if watching the snow-covered forest.His own professor was still the same, standing crookedly with a cigarette in his mouth.Snape looked agitated, as if he was yelling at someone around him.Hermione wanted to eavesdrop, but it was too far away, and there was no cover at all, so she was sure to be spotted walking through the white snow.So she could only find a stump and sit down, trying to see something from the expressions of the two of them from a distance.Unfortunately, it was too advanced for her to reason about dialogue through lip language or facial expressions, and she ended up covering her ears and starting to see Snape's long black hair flicking from a distance, like a rock singer she had seen on TV."

What is it that makes the normally serious Snape so excited?

I'm curious."
