Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

Chapter 71: Parseltongue



"Among the magical animals, there are many snake-like magical creatures, but there are only a few snake-like creatures rated as dangerous by the Ministry of Magic."

Sherlock wrote the word basilisk on the blackboard.

"Among them, the basilisk is one of the only two xxxxx-level snake-like magical creatures. Another long-horned water snake has become extinct in Europe, and only a few survive in the Americas, so we will not discuss it. But even if we consider this Compared with the two types of danger levels, which are rated as the highest snake-like black magic creatures, the Basilisk is also slightly better."

"The appearance of this creature is not a natural choice, but a magical experiment by an evil dark wizard."

""Despicable Hypor" was a notorious Greek dark wizard a thousand years ago. The first basilisk was born under his hands. This creature was born to kill."

"It was a massive snake, and the longest basilisk in recorded history could grow to be fifty feet in length. It was powerful and had venomous teeth, but the creature's most dangerous feature was its s eyes."

The students below listened attentively. Although snake-like magical creatures are not interesting, listening to Sherlock's storytelling is much more interesting than Professor Binns' class on the history of magic.

Sherlock said very seriously.

"The basilisk's eyes have strong magic power, and anyone who looks at its eyes will die immediately, no exceptions!"

"So, if any of you are accidentally attacked by a basilisk in the future, you must remember that you must never look into its eyes. No one can resist such magic!"

His tone was so heavy that the students in the entire classroom held their breath subconsciously, and deeply remembered what he said in their minds.

Of course, the content of this class is not just about basilisks. Sherlock also brought a cage over during the class, and it was covered with a layer of black cloth, making it impossible to see what was inside.

After explaining the basilisk, Sherlock removed the black bra from the cage, revealing the creatures inside.

It was a large snake with three heads. Its body was about five or six feet long, and its surface was bright orange with black stripes.

The three-headed snake's left head was staring coldly at the students in the classroom. The head in the middle seems to be wandering in the sky, not knowing what to think. The right head has been spitting out the letter and making a "hiss" sound, like a talker.

Harry sat in the second row with Ron in this class, and he could clearly see the whole picture of the three-headed snake.

But the strange thing is that he didn't hear the "hissing" sound of snakes, but heard an unpleasant, chattering voice constantly talking.

"You... it's all your fault... caught by the wizard... and brought here... to keep these little brats around... you've been doing the wrong thing... why would I Sharing a body with you guys...sucks...reality sucks..."

Harry stared blankly at the snake in the cage, he found the source of the sound he heard, it seemed... it was the head on the right side of the snake!

When all the students' attention was attracted by the snake in the cage, Sherlock's voice also sounded in the classroom.

"The rune snake, native to Burkina Faso, Africa, as you can see, it has three heads and a scary appearance, and is rated **** in the Ministry of Magic's Fantastic Beasts hazard rating, along with bird snakes, fire snakes side by side."

"Although the Rune snake looks frightening on the outside, its character is not particularly vicious, but because of its appearance, many dark wizards keep it as a pet."

"The one I brought was borrowed from a friend who was an Auror in the Ministry of Magic. This snake was the loot they captured from a dark wizard."

When he said this, Ron quietly leaned into Harry's ear and whispered, "I can't imagine how miserable Professor Forrest's friend is in his usual life."

Harry didn't give him any response, and was still frowning at the snake in a daze.

"There was once a wizard who was proficient in snake language and recorded the habits of the rune snake. The three heads of the rune snake have different functions."

"The head on the left is a mastermind who decides where the rune should go and what to do next. The head in the middle is a sleepwalker who will stay motionless for days, engrossed in brilliant visions and In fantasy. The right head is a critic, with a continuous irritable hiss, evaluating the efforts made by the left and middle heads."

Hearing Sherlock talk about this, the students began to no longer fear the scary appearance of this rune snake, and they all felt interesting.

As Sherlock said, the three heads of the snake in the cage are completely in line with their characteristics, and they didn't make any aggressive moves from the beginning, they looked safe.

"The rune rarely has a long life, because its three heads attack each other. It is often seen that the right head of the rune hissed, only to see the other two heads have joined forces to kill it. bite off..."

Just as Sherlock was talking about this~www.NovelMTL.com~, a student below suddenly exclaimed.

"Professor! That snake fought with itself!"

Sherlock frowned and looked down. Sure enough, he saw the head of the talking tuber snake on the right. It had been beaten by its two companions on the left. The three snakes made an unpleasant "hiss" sound together.

At this time, Harry heard a voice that was completely different from others.

"You think...you're very powerful...then why don't you act on your own!"

"My dreams... are gone... I have endured you for a long time... Every time I think of the most critical... You will break it!"

"You two... did something wrong... I'm still to blame! Do you want to fight... Come on!"

"Bite you... I bite you...!"

"Bite you to death... Bite you to death...!"

Harry looked at the runes that he and he were wrestling with, and couldn't help but persuade him.

"Don't fight anymore, if you fight again, you will all die."

The three heads that were biting together suddenly stopped, and they stared at Harry blankly together!

The entire classroom suddenly became quiet, so quiet that you couldn't even hear the sound of breathing!

Sherlock, who was raising his wand and preparing to cast a stun spell on the snake in the cage, was also stunned. Everyone in the classroom was staring at Harry.

Sherlock's eyes were strange, and his students showed fear and disgust!

"I heard it! I heard it!"

A Slytherin student shouted.

"Potter is talking to snakes! He's a Parseltongue!"

Harry finally came to his senses, looked around at a loss, and didn't realize what he had done.
