for Advance Chapter
It's Christmas again. Hogwarts was shrouded in white and turned into an ice castle. Harry, who had reconciled with the Dursleys this year , no longer had to stay in school to enjoy Professor McGonagall's physical "comfort". He decided to take Hermione and her parents with him and spend the Christmas holiday together. By the way, meet Aunt Petunia's new "cousin" or "nephew" ?!
And through the letters sent to her by Hermione's parents, Harry also knew that Mrs. Granger had been pregnant for more than three months . As for whose child it was... It was hard to say... Anyway, after all the calculations, it was estimated that the probability of Mr. Granger was not high. It was either Vernon's or Daly's, so it seemed that the fertility rate of Muggles was still higher. In this regard, Harry and Hermione both said that the birth of a new family member was a happy event. However, Hermione had a little entanglement in her heart and had never told anyone, that is: on the issue of pregnancy, Hermione knew that it was difficult for wizards to give birth, but she still hoped that the father of her first child would be Harry. At the very least... If she were to get pregnant with a Muggle child first, she would prefer it to be her father, Mr. Granger's.
As for the Dursleys, Hermione was not against having a child for them, but she just hoped that it would not be her first child. After all, girls are very concerned about their first times.
In this regard, Harry's attitude was to let things take their own course. Although Hermione did not say it, Harry had actually considered this matter. But no one could guarantee the birth of a child, so he thought that it was okay.
Whether Hermione 's first child was his or some other stranger's bastard, his love for Hermione would not change. There is a saying that goes: There is true love between him and Hermione, and the child is just an "accident". . ...
"It's great to be young, isn't it, Fawkes?" Dumbledore said softly, his fingers gently stroking the feathers of the phoenix on his shoulder. Fawkes made a pleasant cry, as if in response. When the two black spots finally disappeared from sight, the kind smile on Dumbledore's face slowly faded, replaced by a resolute look. He turned and walked to his desk, and took out a black diary inlaid with silver snake patterns from the depths of the drawer. The surface of the diary was unusually cold, and it exuded a chill even in the warm headmaster's office .
"Tom, we should make a break." Dumbledore muttered to himself and put the diary into the inner pocket of his robes . He waved the Elder Wand, and a silver Patronus jumped out from the tip of the wand. "Severus, Minerva, please gather in the girls' bathroom on the second floor immediately ."
Fifteen minutes later, Dumbledore met the two professors at the door of Moaning Myrtle's bathroom. Snape was dressed in a black robe, his face was even gloomier than usual, and he was carrying a small box filled with various potions; Professor McGonagall was wearing her sturdiest battle robes, her hair was tied up tighter than usual, and there was a rare excitement in her eyes .
"Albus, are you sure you want to act today?" McGonagall asked in a low voice, looking around vigilantly.
"Although most students have left school, what if--" "That's why, Minerva." Dumbledore said calmly, "Christmas is the time when . And..."
He patted the inner pocket on his chest, " The 'cold' that little girl Ginny Weasley caught while shooting sex photos outdoors with Hagrid gave us a perfect excuse. Tom's diary is in my hands, and now is the best time to deal with the basilisk."
Snape's mouth twisted into an expression that was almost a smile: "I have prepared neurotoxins and antidotes for snake creatures. Enough to take down ten-headed basilisks."
"Great, Severus." Dumbledore nodded, "Then let's get started."
He turned to the faucet engraved with a little snake mark, took a deep breath, and made a series of hissing sounds. The floor of the bathroom suddenly shook, and the sink moved slowly, revealing a dark entrance to the pipe.
"I never knew you could speak Parseltongue, Albus." McGonagall said in surprise.
"I learned it in Cairo in 1899." Dumbledore's eyes flashed with distant memories, "I didn't expect it to come in handy today."
The three of them slid into the pipe one after another and moved forward in the dark and damp tunnel. Snape lit his wand, illuminating the walls covered with moss and unknown mucus. The tunnel continued to extend downward, and the air became increasingly cold and damp, with a smell of decay.
"We're almost there." Dumbledore suddenly stopped and pointed his wand forward, "I can feel its presence."
At the end of the tunnel was a stone wall engraved with coiled snakes. Dumbledore used Parseltongue to open the mechanism again, and the stone wall slowly opened, revealing a huge underground cave - Salazar Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets. In the center of the chamber stood a giant statue of Slytherin, and the serious face looked particularly gloomy in the dim light. The bones of small animals were scattered on the ground, and the air was filled with the unique stench of rotten meat and snakes .
"Lumos!" The three lit their wands at the same time and looked around vigilantly. Suddenly, a rustling sound came from behind the statue, followed by the harsh sound of scales rubbing against the stone surface. Dumbledore immediately raised his wand: "It's coming! Prepare to fight!"
A huge basilisk slid out from behind the statue. It was emerald green and fifty feet long. Its thick body like a tree trunk was covered with glittering scales. The pair of yellow vertical pupils were like two evil lanterns in the darkness, staring straight at the intruder.
"Don't look into its eyes!" Dumbledore shouted, "Fawkes, now!"
The phoenix flew up from Dumbledore's shoulder and rushed straight to the face of the basilisk like a ball of burning fire. The basilisk let out a deafening roar and opened its bloody mouth to bite Fawkes, but the phoenix dodged nimbly and grabbed the basilisk's eyes with its sharp claws.
"Stupefy!" Professor McGonagall took the lead, and a red light hit the basilisk's neck, but only left a scorch mark on the scales.
"Its scales are resistant to magic!" Snape quickly opened the medicine box and took out a bottle of dark purple potion, " Physical attack combined with magic is required!"
The basilisk was furious at Fawkes' harassment, and its tail swept across the three people. Dumbledore quickly cast the Shield Charm, and a translucent barrier blocked the attack, but the impact still caused cracks in the barrier.
"Minerva, it's time!" Dumbledore shouted. Professor McGonagall showed a rare excitement on her face. She raised her wand high and shouted in a clear and powerful voice : "Stone Pillars!" The whole secret room shook, and the knight statues on the wall came to life one by one, marching in formation with stone swords and stone shields. An army of more than 20 stone statues surrounded the basilisk, and stone swords slashed at the basilisk's body.
"Well done, Minerva!" Snape praised, pouring the purple potion into a small sprayer. "Dumbledore, I need a chance!" Fawkes had successfully pecked out one of the basilisk's eyes, and yellow-green liquid gushed out . The basilisk rolled over in pain, smashing three or four stone statues, but more stone statues rushed up one after another.
"Now!" Dumbledore suddenly made a series of hisses in Parseltongue. The basilisk was obviously startled , and there was a brief hesitation in its movements.
Snape seized the opportunity and aimed the sprayer at the open mouth of the basilisk. Purple mist sprayed into the basilisk's throat , and it immediately twitched violently, and its movements became slow and uncoordinated.
"The neurotoxin is taking effect!" Snape shouted, "but it will only last for a few minutes!"
"Enough!" Dumbledore raised the Elder Wand, and a dazzling golden beam shot directly into the other eye of . With a loud bang and the basilisk's shrill scream, its eyes were completely blinded.
The blinded basilisk twisted wildly, and its tail smashed more stone statues, but Professor McGonagall kept commanding new stone statues to join the battle. Dumbledore began to move forward, and drew a circle around himself with the Elder Wand, and the blue calendar fire
instantly ignited.
"Fire shield!" He pointed the wand at the basilisk. The blue calendar fire condensed into a spear and instantly pierced the basilisk's head and went straight into the brain. Dumbledore said this, but he really didn't want to use this magic . The basilisk froze for a second, then fell to the ground like a collapsed mountain, stirring up a cloud of dust.
The chamber suddenly became quiet, with only the rapid breathing of the three people and the clattering sound of the stone statues as they retreated.
"We... succeeded?" Professor McGonagall asked in disbelief, her hair was untied and
her face was covered with dust.
Snape walked quickly to the body of the basilisk, checked it and nodded to confirm: "It is indeed dead. My poison destroyed its nervous system, and Dumbledore's Terminator spell directly destroyed its brain."
Dumbledore wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked towards the body of the basilisk: "Now, complete the last step."
He took out the diary from the inner pocket, and then used the magic wand to remove a long fang from the mouth of the basilisk.
When the fang pierced the diary, an inhuman scream broke out from the page. Black ink
gushed out like blood, forming a vague human figure in the air - the face was distorted, screaming silently, and then turned into black smoke and dissipated.
The diary burned in Dumbledore's hand and turned into ashes in the blink of an eye.
"It's over." Dumbledore said softly, but his expression was extremely complicated.
Professor McGonagall breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank God. I have been worried--"
Her words were interrupted by a sudden vibration. A purple magic circle appeared on the floor of the secret room, and pink magic mist spread throughout the secret room. A vague female figure appeared above the magic circle, stretched out a translucent hand and touched the black smoke left after the diary burned.
"The goddess of joy and love successfully accepted this year's sacrifice." Dumbledore explained in a low voice, with , "Five more times to go."
Professor McGonagall and Snape exchanged glances, but neither spoke. When the magic circle disappeared, Snape rolled up his sleeves, revealing the inside of his arm - there was originally only one pink and purple thorn pattern, but now it has become two.
"The price must be paid." He said calmly, lowering his sleeves.
The three of them left the secret room in silence and returned along the tunnel. When they reappeared in the bathroom, the castle bells rang exactly seven times, and the Christmas dinner was about to begin.
"Go change your clothes, the children are still waiting for us." Dumbledore said, and
his , as if everything just now had never happened.
At the Christmas dinner that night, Dumbledore sat in the guest of honor seat, watching the students who stayed in school happily enjoying the food and exchanging gifts. Professor McGonagall, who drank the anti-aging potion and returned to the state of 18 years old, simply took a shower and came to the hall naked, surrounded by a group of boys with their dicks erect.
"Cheers to Hogwarts!" He raised his glass, and the sound of silverware colliding, the girls' screams and laughter echoed in the hall.
