Professor Rupert Hogwarts

Chapter 119 Lockhart vs. Basilisk
Professor McGonagall looked at Lockhart who fell to the ground solemnly, and Snape also stretched out his wand.Although they didn't like Lockhart, they couldn't watch him being killed by the basilisk.

Professor McGonagall pointed her wand, and a vine wrapped around Lockhart and pulled him aside, avoiding the basilisk's tail attack.At the same time, Snape opened a gash on the basilisk with an invisible Divine Edge Shadowless Curse.

Black blood spilled from the wounds on the basilisk's body, as if it felt the pain of the body. The basilisk's twisted body was bumping around, and the stone pillars near the open space were even hit by the basilisk to create some cracks.

Then, the basilisk seemed to be enraged, its twisted body surged wildly, and it rushed towards the crowd.

Feeling Hermione's grip on his arm tighten, Eisen narrowed his eyes, glanced at Snape and McGonagall next to him, then raised his wand and pointed it at Lockhart, who was lying beside him not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Following Eisen's movement, the floor under Lockhart suddenly changed and a one-foot-square stone platform rose up.After the stone platform raised Lockhart, the top part transformed into a chair, which straightened Lockhart's body.Making it look like he was sitting on it.

Then armrests appeared on both sides of the chair, and the armrest on the right transformed into a bracket to prop up Lockhart's right hand and secure his wand in it.

With a thought in his mind, Eisen moved the bracket holding Lockhart's right hand, causing the wand in his right hand to point at the basilisk running towards him.Then, a little green light came out of the tip of Lockhart's wand.

Wind blades appeared out of thin air in front of Lockhart, forming a wind blade tornado and attacking the basilisk.A series of scars appeared on the basilisk's body, knocking the basilisk to the ground.

It sounds like a very complicated process, but in fact it only takes one second.

To Harry and others, this was a very strange scene. Lockhart, who was pulled aside by Professor McGonagall, suddenly sat on a chair on a raised stone platform, holding the wand tightly and pointing at the basilisk. I saw wind blades like tornadoes, cutting the basilisk all over its body.

Of course, this is not surprising. What is strange is that Lockhart's sunglasses fell to the ground. His eyes were closed tightly, seemingly to prevent him from looking at the basilisk, but his head was drooped to the side, as if he was unconscious. Past general.

Since he was unconscious, how did he cast his magic?And it's such a powerful magic.The injured basilisk was seen twisting and rolling on the ground, but within a few moments it was seriously injured and on the verge of death.

"Is Professor Lockhart that powerful?" Ron was stunned by this scene.He has always been Lockhart's biggest fan and firmly believes that Lockhart is a liar.

You know, Ron saw Lockhart's behavior in class.But I didn't expect that Lockhart would become so powerful that he could kill the basilisk by himself.

"This -" Hermione looked at Lockhart's miserable look with his head hanging down, and then at the movement of the wand in Eisen's hand pointing at Lockhart, and was a little confused as to what was going on.

Professor McGonagall and Snape stopped what they were doing and focused their attention on Eisen.Some were amazed, and some were confused.

"Professor Lockhart seems to be very powerful. He is indeed a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor!" Eisen pointed his wand at Lockhart and praised Lockhart calmly.

As he thought, the wind blade tornado quickly expanded and turned into a ten-foot thick wind pillar, then compressed and merged into a wind blade, directly cutting off the basilisk's head.

The basilisk's body twitched heavily, and after twisting and rolling a few times, it completely stopped moving.The huge wind blade also dissipated under Aisen's thoughts.

At the same time, the bracket on Lockhart's right hand slowly moved, causing his right hand holding the wand to drop and hang on the armrest.It feels like the spell has been cast.

"The basilisk is dead?" Hermione's voice came.

"Yes, the basilisk is dead!" Feeling Hermione's gaze, Eisen came to the basilisk's huge head. After feeling no curse feedback from the basilisk's bulb-like eyes, Eisen A definite conclusion is given.

Afterwards, Aisen took off his sunglasses, turned back into a poker and put it away after dispelling the magic.Seeing Aisen's actions, others also put away their sunglasses.

"Now that the basilisk has been killed, is Hagrid okay? Principal Dumbledore will be back too!" Harry put on his glasses, a relaxed smile on his face.

"Yes, Principal Dumbledore and Hagrid should be back too!" Professor McGonagall showed a rare smile.

"Yes, the basilisk that caused the attack has been solved. Since Hagrid did not do all this, Hagrid will naturally be fine. As for Principal Dumbledore, I think he should be back soon. "Aisen nodded and agreed.

"By the way, Professor Lockhart!" Ron was wandering around the basilisk corpse, rubbing his hand on the palm-sized scale. As if he suddenly remembered something, he ran to Lockhart.

With a thought in Eisen's mind, the chair under Lockhart returned to its original state, and the stone platform quickly fell down and turned into the floor again.

Lockhart was lying on the ground, his face covered in blood, and his clothes were already filthy, looking particularly miserable.But judging from the fact that he was still breathing, he was not dead.

"He was slightly injured and passed out!" Professor McGonagall concluded after stepping forward to check.At the same time, Eisen noticed that Professor McGonagall also breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed that she didn't want Lockhart to die tragically in the secret room.

"Hmm—" a small moan came out of Lockhart's mouth, and then he opened his eyes.

"What's going on?" Looking at Professor McGonagall and Ron who were gathered around, Lockhart asked his question in confusion.

"Congratulations, Professor Lockhart, you single-handedly solved the basilisk and showed your glorious moment. It's really amazing!" Eisen gave Lockhart a thumbs up, and then pointed to the person beside him. Decapitated basilisk corpse.

"Really? I said it's no problem to deal with the basilisk! Look, there's nothing I can't solve!" Lockhart's blood-stained face showed a smile, looking particularly funny.

When he wanted to stand up, he fell to the ground and covered his chest with his hands.At the same time, the smile on his face twisted directly.

Next to them, Hermione and Harry, who had already guessed what was going on, looked at Eisen in confusion.But when they thought about being told by Aisen to hide their strength, the two of them looked vaguely surprised.

"That's right, Professor Lockhart, you are so amazing. I think you can write a book about this experience, called "How I Slayed the Basilisk"!" Hermione directly transformed into Lockhart at this moment. My sister, the compliment came out immediately.

"Professor Lockhart, when will you teach us the spell to defeat the basilisk? That's really awesome!" The compliment from Harry, the savior, made Lockhart happy.He endured the pain in his chest and waved his hand to Harry.

laugh--

Snape sneered and turned away, seemingly unable to see the compliments paid to Lockhart by several people.Then he walked up to the basilisk's decapitated head and observed it.

"Let's go, I think Gilderoy needs to go to the campus hospital to stay for a while!" Professor McGonagall saw the blood oozing from the corner of Lockhart's mouth, frowned and interrupted several people.

"I think the body of the basilisk needs to be taken out." Eisen paused slightly before continuing, "Only in this way can others and Cornelius Fudge believe that the monster in the secret room has been solved."

"Yes, the body of the basilisk must be taken out and shown to the young wizards to let them know that it was me, Gilderoy Lockhart, who killed the basilisk. In this way, they will know that the attack will not happen again. !" Although Lockhart looked very embarrassed, his eyes were shining brightly.

Everyone was speechless when they saw Lockhart's appearance.However, everyone left the secret room immediately.

Professor McGonagall walked in front, followed closely by Elson and Hermione.The injured Lockhart was supported by Harry and Ron, walking behind Ison and Hermione.At the end was Snape, who had cast a spell on the basilisk's corpse.

A soft light lit up on the tip of Professor McGonagall's wand, bringing a glimmer of light to the dark and deep tunnel.Although the entire tunnel was still damp and gloomy, the atmosphere around everyone was obviously more relaxed when they left.

After all, when they came in, everyone had to deal with the basilisk, so the atmosphere would inevitably be a bit depressing, but now that the basilisk has been killed, there is no need to worry.

Lockhart, who was being supported by Harry and Ron, even sang a tune happily.
