Chapter 214 Slytherin's Legacy
"I'm so hungry..." The basilisk seemed to think of something, and the words stopped abruptly, as if it also realized that something was wrong: it lost all its sense of being a snake.
"Mortals, Hugh is presumptuous, this is the abode of the supreme being, the great giant Salazar Slytherin!" The voice of the basilisk suddenly became solemn.But in Lu Ren's ears, there was no going back.
The image of the basilisk is forever fixed in his heart as a gluttonous fat man.
Lu Ren asked in Parseltongue, "What do you want to eat?"
Basilisk: "..."
For a moment, there was a dead silence in the secret room.
"Mortal, since you wake me up, you should serve me with blood!" The basilisk seemed to want to struggle.
"So are mice okay?" Lu Ren wasn't afraid at all, he had already seen through the nature of the basilisk.
Basilisk: ...
"Can I have some giant acromantia, please? If not, wild boar is fine too. If it's not good, some chicken, please!" The basilisk finally gave up resisting, "I'm really hungry! You don't bring food here again I'm going to sleep!"
Lu Ren: ...
"Can you hold on for a while?" Lu Ren was also convinced.
……
In the end, Lu Ren still left the secret room first, went to the edge of the Forbidden Forest and brought back a wild boar.When he returned to the secret room, the basilisk ran out excitedly: "Handsome boy, hungry, eat!" Then the whole snake jumped on the wild boar and began to swallow hard.
After it swallowed the wild boar, it came to its senses, "Actually, you don't have to keep your eyes closed, I can control my abilities."
Lu Ren: Damn you didn't say it earlier!
So he opened his eyes, and a giant snake over 20 feet, that is, more than 6 meters, appeared in front of his eyes. Its snake skin looked green and very bright, and it was a poisonous snake at first glance.In addition to its green, scaly skin, the basilisk has sharp teeth and yellow eyes the size of light bulbs.
Although he looked directly into the eyes of the basilisk, there was no abnormality in Lu Ren's body.And Lu Ren, who had been with Norber for a long time, didn't feel how big the snake was, but it was only "merely" 20 feet.Lu Ren knew very well that the basilisk can grow up to 50 feet—as long as a dragon, but Parseltongue can make the basilisk enter a deep sleep, thereby preventing it from continuing to grow, and entering a state similar to suspended animation.So although this basilisk has existed for nearly a thousand years, it is still a child.
"So what's your name?"
"No name." The basilisk seemed to be drowsy again after eating, "Dad didn't take it either..."
"Dad?"
"It's your headmaster, Salazar Slytherin." The basilisk said lazily.
"Have you killed someone before?"
Basilisk: ...
"Killed..." the basilisk said faintly, "I can't resist the orders of the descendants of Slytherin... Now he's back! But the orders are very vague, so I've been perfunctory him."
Sure enough, Lu Ren's previous guess was verified.
"Is there anything else you can do? I'll go back to sleep if I have nothing to do. Don't wander around the school alone these days. I don't know when that person will come back."
"Did Slytherin leave anything here?"
"Me! But am I a thing? I shouldn't be a thing."
"Except for you?"
The basilisk was obviously impatient: "You people are really annoying! Yes, just behind that statue, there is Slytherin's workshop, which contains some of his manuscripts."
Then the basilisk turned its head and crawled towards where it came from.Lu Ren followed it and flew into the statue's mouth.The mouth of the Slytherin statue is wider than it looks.After walking dozens of steps, he came to a huge crypt, which contained many small animal bones, and the air smelled foul. It seemed that this was the lair of the basilisk.
The basilisk crawled to a corner of the crypt, coiled itself up and remained motionless, apparently asleep.
On the other side of the crypt was a stone door with a gold snake's head on the handle.
Lu Ren:? ? ?
I doubt……
Lu Ren knocked on the door, and then the snake head started to move, opened its mouth wide, and a haughty voice came out: "Who is it?"
Lu Ren felt really speechless. Why does this Slytherin room look like Ravenclaw?
"Lu Ren from the Central Plains, pay homage to Senior Hogwarts Slytherin."
"Yes." The snake twisted its head, and then opened the door.
Lu Ren stepped into the room, and suddenly there were some faint stars in the room. Lu Ren looked up at the ceiling, but only saw a vast starry sky.At this time, he seemed to be really in the wilderness, the sky was the quilt, the ground was the pavement, it was just an ordinary room, but it made people feel the insignificance of himself and the vastness of the universe.
Thousands of years of time have washed away, but the magic here has not been invalidated.
There is a chair and a table in the room, and a bookshelf with many manuscripts and books on it.Lu Ren lit up the lamp on the table and browsed the treasure left by Slytherin.
After some time, Lu Ren read the manuscript on the table, and he also had a general understanding of Slytherin's research in his later years.
It has to be said that Slytherin, one of the Big Four, is really a pioneer in the magical world.He spent his whole life studying bloodlines and how to borrow power from powerful creatures, and it is not difficult to see from the words in the manuscript that he succeeded in the end.
He successfully integrated the blood of the basilisk and gained power beyond imagination.What is the specific power, he did not disclose in the manuscript.
The parchments on the table are all records of Slytherin's experiments on blood fusion, but to Lu Ren's regret, all his experiments failed.In other words, the experimental records left in this room were all failures.
In this case, Lu Ren would not be able to follow the path of Slytherin, because the risk of blood fusion is extremely high. If there is no magic potion, it is absolutely close to death, and the successful formula in this room has disappeared.Obviously, Lu Ren was not the first visitor.
And looking at the failure records in this room, and the almost uncontrollable angry tone at the end of the report, Lu Ren could imagine how much Slytherin had paid for these experiments.Lu Ren is an ordinary little wizard, it is almost impossible to continue these experiments - there are even experiments using living people as materials!If he dared to do this, Dumbledore would definitely be happy to play the role of the Third Hokage, but Lu Ren would be very embarrassed, he could only play Orochimaru...
However, Lu Ren didn't like blood fusion either - fusion might bring extremely troublesome side effects. What he looked at was another unfinished research of Slytherin: the cultivation of magical animals.However, because this work was not completed and the results were slow, it did not enter the "sight" of the predecessors, so a relatively complete information was left.
