Chapter 226: Slytherin's research room
Seeing the light bulb-sized eyes of the basilisk, Ivan vaguely felt his body become cold.
??
?? Fortunately, there is no sign of being petrified, and the shadow of the blood magic unicorn is also not affected in any way.
??
?? This proves that his previous guess is correct
??
?? Even so, Ivan didn't relax at all, because the huge basilisk had snaked its body and came in front of him, and the cold breath was spitting out on his body, making Ivan almost nauseous.
??
?? Basilisk opened its big mouth full of fangs, but did not launch an attack. Both eyes fixed on the "owl" who was lying on the ground and groaning, and his mouth made a hissing sound.
??
?? "Hiss~ (Hungry! You gave it to me?
??
?? Before Ivan could reply, the basilisk suddenly opened its mouth, tore the two "owls" into its mouth, and swallowed directly.
??
?? Ivan, who witnessed everything through the patron saint, couldn’t help but twitched. The **** he was about to deal with the basilisk was so cold
??
?? Ivan was slightly relieved that the basilisk did not intend to attack him directly.
??
?? This means that both parties can communicate.
??
?? Thinking of this, Ivan followed the basilisk's whisper just now and said.
??
?? "Yes, this is the gift I brought you"
??
?? "Do you know where Slytherin's research room is? It is where your master often goes when he is here?" Ivan added.
??
"Not enough food! Hungry~" The basilisk ignored Ivan's words, winding his huge body around him, spinning around restlessly, staring at him with two large light bulb eyes, stretching out from time to time The tongue was testing his smell.
??
?? Ivan became nervous again.
??
?? At the same time, Ivan is also very depressed. How does this basilisk behave like a foodie? Is it true that every time he is summoned?
??
?? Then Tom Riddle opened the secret room several times, and what did he feed him?
??
?? Ivan was very worried that the basilisk would consider attacking himself if he was too hungry, and couldn't help but remember the information he had checked in the forbidden book zone before he came to the secret room.
??
?? The above shows that the recipe for basilisk is very mixed. Mammals, birds, reptiles, and insects eat almost everything, but the favorite food is spiders.
??
?? Ivan said with an idea.
??
?? "You tell me where is that place? I'll take you to eat the eight-eyed giant spider next time!"
??
?? "Eight-eyed giant spider?" The basilisk spit out the letter and whispered in a low voice.
??
?? It doesn't know what the eight-eyed giant spider is, but from the meaning expressed by Ivan, it should be a very big spider, which should be able to satisfy its own appetite.
??
?? This special name reminds the basilisk faintly of the tempting smell it smelled in the castle the last time it awoke. It is certain that it must be a very delicious spider.
??
?? It is a pity that not long after that, the person who drove it forced it to sleep
??
?? Noting the basilisk's reaction, Ivan settled and said again. "It's a very special kind of spider, it's very big, I believe you will like it! As for now, you should take me to your master's research room first!"
??
?? "Eat the eight-eyed giant spider!" The basilisk whispered and weighed it, then suddenly turned his head and meandered away in the direction where he came, seeming to want to return to his lair.
??
?? Ivan is a little strange, why did the other party suddenly run away.
??
?? But soon Ivan thought of another possibility, and hurriedly ran forward and grabbed the basilisk's tail, letting it take itself.
??
?? Basilisk also let Ivan’s movements go, and followed the open mouth of the Slytherin statue, sliding in the passage.
??
?? Ivan, who was lying on the basilisk’s tail, also followed the basilisk into the statue. The shadow of the unicorn surrounded him, illuminating the surroundings.
??
?? After walking through the passage, Ivan found himself in a big place. This should be the basilisk’s lair. I don’t know how long it has not been taken care of, and it smelled of mold.
??
The walls around ?? are engraved with murals, on which are recorded various magical creatures, the last painting is the basilisk.
??
?? The real basilisk, after bringing him in again, hovered in the corner, stepped aside, and revealed a door.
??
?? On both sides of the gate, there are two stone guards. The swords in their hands are crossed to block the way to the gate.
??
?? Ivan suddenly understood that that was what he was looking for.
??
?? "Salute to the great forerunner Salazar Slytherin!" Ivan tried to read the "key" the system gave him.
??
?? rumbling~
??
?? The two stone guards suddenly moved, retracted their weapons, opened the door, and then leaned over and knelt down, as if they were welcoming the master's servant.
??
?? Ivan couldn’t help but spit, Salazar Slytherin really likes to engage in the ritual sense of these curves.
??
?? stepped into this room, the surroundings suddenly became bright, and the ceiling was full of dots of magic lights. Perhaps it is the magic that is set to automatically turn on when someone comes in. What is rare is that it has been over a thousand years and has not expired.
??
?? Basilisk stayed outside and didn't dare to come in, and I don't know if Slytherin had given it any instructions before.
??
?? This made Ivan finally opened his eyes in peace, and cancelled his patron saint. There was always a weird feeling that his eyes and body were out of sync.
??
???~
??
?? Ivan walked forward and soon found that he had stepped on something ~www.mtlnovel.com~ stopped, picked it up, and found that there were a few yellowed and wrinkled paper sheets.
??
?? said it was a page of paper, but in fact it was not made of any material. It felt like a licorice skin, and Ivan felt a little familiar.
??
?? After looking at what was written on it, Ivan's face turned black.
??
?? "Tom, you really are a liar!" Ivan gritted his teeth with anger. After comparing the content, he was sure that this was the missing page of "The Origin of Blood".
??
?? Tom had been fooling him before this thing was taken away by Dumbledore, but he was still dubious at the time.
??
?? And these missing pages, just as Ivan had originally expected, recorded the method of fusion of blood, that is, the formula of the blood fusion potion that the system rewarded him last school year.
??
?? "Sure enough, my previous guess was correct."
??
?? Ivan was not surprised. After learning that "The Origin of Blood" was written by Salazar Slytherin, he guessed that the rewards the system gave him were not something out of nothing, but something that already existed.
??
?? In addition to these, the missing page also details the existence of the secret room and how to get there.
??
?? Ivan thought, and it seems that what Tom said to him was not all false.
??
?? Tom probably, as he himself said, found a clue left by Slytherin somewhere in the castle, found the "Origin of Blood", and then went to the secret room according to the prompt
