Chapter 84
"Is... is that thing coming?" Hermione suddenly trembled all over, and Thorne patted her back and comforted her.
"Just don't open your eyes, this guy will kill anyone he sees."
Thorn summoned his wand and gently waved a black ribbon to cover Hermione's eyes. If he didn't untie it himself, no matter what she did, she couldn't take it off at all.
"Be careful." Hermione nodded obediently.
"Hmm..." Thorne nodded, squinted his eyes, and at the same time released all the magic power in his body into the air, just like water, every time the basilisk moved, it would emit ripples.
And against a magical animal like the basilisk with thick skin and flesh, ordinary spells and transfiguration are of little effect, unless he can play those like Dumbledore.
It's a pity that he can't do it, but there are also second-rate options, such as a killing curse, but Dumbledore, the old Biden, didn't teach him.
Fortunately, I still have some tricks up my sleeve.
The next moment, the temperature in the corridor suddenly rose, and the overwhelming blue flames suddenly surged out. For a moment, only a sea of fire could be seen in the corridor.
The portraits hanging here were also torn apart, leaving only the frames that could not be taken away. However, as long as my consciousness was still there, it would not be difficult to change a frame.
Boom!
With a roar, the fierce fire that had just attached to the basilisk was suppressed by a more powerful black magic. For a moment, the basilisk seemed to have recited a fire avoidance spell, rushing towards Thorne. Even if I didn't look at it, I would crush it with my body!
"Stop!" After Thorne noticed it, he suddenly moved his wand forward. For a moment, invisible ripples vibrated in the air, and the huge basilisk was given by this ordinary stagnation spell and could not move at all.
"First, dig out your two eyeballs!" Thorne's expression suddenly became sinister, and the blood-red magic power around him rushed straight to the face of the basilisk, and pulled out the two eyeballs of the basilisk.
After casually summoning two silks to wrap the eyeballs, Thorne finally opened his eyes. The next moment, a bright silver light went forward to the front of the basilisk, intending to split it in half and take the salted snake head home.
It was a pity that the basilisk twisted violently and was not seriously injured, but Shenfeng Wuying still chopped at the body of the basilisk without reducing its momentum, revealing the pale bones inside.
Thorne took this opportunity to swung his magic wand violently, and a red light was thrown out and violently affected the bone, and then it flew towards Thorne without breaking the flesh.
The basilisk forgot to attack for a moment because of the pain. Moreover, the nerves and blood vessels wrapped in it were also violently torn apart, just like the loss of bones. Therefore, the basilisk could only control half of its body at this time, and the latter half was completely a burden.
"Stay here!" Thorne's eyes became more vicious, and a ball of condensed Fiendfyre floated on the tip of the wand, about to burn the basilisk into inorganic matter, but the whole snake of the basilisk suddenly flashed and disappeared.
"................" Thorne restrained the Fiendfyre and looked at Dumbledore and others who came late and said helplessly: "A basilisk controlled by someone was teleported away. I think it should be the door key."
"Basilisk!" Professor McGonagall exclaimed, and the two Gryffindors behind him were so confused.
"Basilisk?"
"So, Ms. Abbott was attacked by a basilisk, but for some reason, she did not die but was petrified... Is it an adult basilisk?" Dumbledore pretended to touch his beard and muttered.
"Adult basilisk, the eyes are over there." Thorne nodded, and raised his chin towards the two giant eyes of the basilisk covered by the silk.
"Oh my God...Merlin bless, Hannah is fine." Professor McGonagall was relieved when she heard that although the basilisk left, the two eyeballs were left by Thorne. The basilisk was not so scary without those eyes that could kill anyone who stared at it. At most, it was just a larger snake.
"Um...can you take this off?" Hermione, who was standing behind Thorne, was scared when she heard them talking about basilisks, eyeballs, petrification, etc., but fortunately, it was okay. She was protected by Thorne again.
But just when she wanted to open her eyes to look at him, she remembered that there was still the silk on her eyes. She immediately pulled Thorne's sleeve with a blushing feeling.
"Oh, sorry." Thorne took off the silk and waved it casually, and disappeared.
And Hermione was thinking about what had just happened.The feeling of being held by Thorne, and not being able to see, being powerless to decide whether it was heaven or hell, and being able to passively accept it......... This feeling...........
........... Not bad?
Thorne looked at Hermione, whose face was gradually turning red, with a strange look in his eyes, and always felt that she was thinking about things that she shouldn't think about at this age.
"Now that the matter is over, let's go back to sleep. A lot of things happened today, and you should all be sleepy." Dumbledore said standing there.
Thorne nodded, waved his wand, and two huge eyeballs and the huge snake vertebra floated behind him, and he was about to leave.
"That thing?" Hermione asked when she saw it.
"I'll take the vertebrae to Snape, and I'll take the eyes for another use." Thorne left the corridor without looking back and walked towards the Slytherin dormitory.
"Let's go too. I'll take you back to the Gryffindor dormitory." Professor McGonagall waved to the three Gryffindors and walked towards the Gryffindor tower.
Dumbledore was the only one left in the empty corridor, with a gloomy look in his eyes.
"Tom........."
........................................
Thorn, who returned to the basement of Hogwarts, knocked on Snape's office first, and after getting permission, he pushed the door and walked in.
"What's the matter?" Snape was concentrating on brewing a pot of potion, and said without raising his head.
"The vertebrae of the basilisk, I remember it was a very precious potion material, I wanted to send it to you." Thorne said, letting the huge bone floating behind him fly into Snape's office.
"...Did you fight with the basilisk?"
