Chapter 286： return journey

Before the banquet started, Sean went to the Black Lake again with ease. After hitting the scales, it didn't take long for the basilisk's huge emerald green head to emerge from the lake.

"Things are ready, I'll give you a try." Sean hissed, then let the basilisk with his back turned to him bow his head.

The glasses specially made by Mr. Wallup this time are huge, and the overall shape is somewhat similar to windproof glasses, but with an additional strap, which was specially ordered by Sean to prevent the basilisk from accidentally leaving the glasses.

The main body of the glasses is a light black frame with pure black lenses. There is a mechanical button next to it. When you press the outer black lens, it will pop up, and then the inner transparent crystal lens will be exposed.

There is also an electronic control device integrated into the frame, and Sean has a remote control that can control the opening and closing of the inner and outer two layers of lenses - of course, the electronic products within the Hogwarts range automatically fail, and this will have to wait until later.

Although time was short, Mr. Wallup, who had the ability to banknotes, gave himself a surprise, and he was very satisfied with the glasses in front of him.

The basilisk closed his eyes tightly and lay motionless on the ground. Those who didn't know it thought this guy had already died.

Sean took out the huge glasses, and the six-legged cat-leopard pudding came out of the ring, walking upright, like a human with four hands.

"Meow?" Pudding glanced at the basilisk warily.

Sean rubbed its head: "Don't be afraid, my own."

The cat and leopard, which possesses the two pupil techniques of hypnotism and legilimency, is naturally restrained by the basilisk that looks straight at it, but under the relief of Sean, it still carries the huge glasses honestly.

After a while, the originally terrifying basilisk put on a pair of pure black glasses and looked oddly comical.

"How, how do you feel?" Sean asked the basilisk.

The basilisk shook its head, and it looked a little uncomfortable: "It feels weird, like I have an extra layer of thick and hard eyelids."

Sean patted its head: "Please bear with me. After you leave with me, I will find a way to make people change to more comfortable materials. However, will it affect your actions after wearing this?"

The Basilisk shook his head: "It doesn't matter. For me, there is no difference between swimming with my eyes closed and swimming without closing my eyes."

"That's good, but you must remember that you can't take off your glasses without my permission." Sean instructed.

"No problem, I'll listen to you." The basilisk nodded.

Sean took out a cage with a few mice in it, which was the usual snack for cat and leopard pudding.

Putting the cage under the basilisk, Sean asked, "Can you feel the mouse normally?"

"can."

"Okay, then open your eyes and stare at the mouse to see if my glasses are useful."

The basilisk moved with great momentum, its emerald green scales scratched across the rocks and made a harsh sound. Then it raised its head in the sunlight and looked at the shivering mice with its yellow pupils blocked by black lenses.

For one second, two seconds, three seconds, the mice were still huddled and shivering, but they were not harmed.

Sean grinned: "It really works, how do you feel about it yourself?"

"I don't feel anything, it's just that the lens in front of the eye is a little hot."

Sean clapped his hands, what he wanted was this effect, and now he finally didn't have to worry about being hurt by the basilisk's unintentional actions.

"Great, big guy, now, come with me?" He stroked the basilisk's cold scales.

The basilisk lowered his body and rubbed Sean with his truck-like head: "Okay."

Sean opened the ring and expanded the entrance to the maximum. The basilisk squeezed in hard, deforming the door frame of the entrance, and finally slipped in.

"Meow!" Pudding roared threateningly.

The basilisk doesn't care, its super-high intelligence allows it to clearly distinguish between enemies and friends.

Sean stretched his head in and comforted the pudding for a while, and then shouted to the basilisk in snake language: "There are caves and lakes on the left, do you still get used to it?"

"Very good, I like it." It was probably the first time the environment had changed, and the basilisk's hiss sounded a little excited.

Sean was relieved, and after communicating with the two magical animals for a while, he closed the ring passage and walked towards the way he came.

Now, with the Basilisk, you don't have to worry about fighting.

Sean flew over the cliff and landed next to the castle, thinking about what happened next while walking towards the auditorium.

First of all, since we agreed to take the basilisk out for a walk, then go to other places to travel during the summer vacation, let him see the scenery other than Hogwarts, and it happens that one person and one snake can also cultivate feelings.

As for how to feed the basilisk, it is not difficult, except for the cost of money.

The Basilisk has a very wide range of recipes. It eats everything except chicken. Sean is going to get some cattle and sheep for it to change its taste when he goes back. This guy has been at the bottom of the Black Lake for hundreds of years, and it is too bad to only eat fish every day. .

Of course, in addition to cultivating relationships, think about how the basilisk can help him.

First of all, the size of the ring channel needs to be expanded again, otherwise in an emergency, the basilisk will be stuck for a long time just to swim out of the ring. Secondly, you can teach the basilisk some things, such as how to use its various lethal weapons reasonably.

In addition to the famous death by looking directly, the venom of the basilisk is also one of the most poisonous in the world. Later, you can consider letting the basilisk detoxify and preserve it, but be careful when using it...

Shawn thought about these questions as he walked towards the auditorium.

It didn't take long for him to reach the door of the auditorium. At this time, the students had gathered in the auditorium, and the flags of the four colleges were flying in the air.

"Sean, this way!" The sharp-eyed Daisy waved at him.

He smiled and sat beside his friend, greeted the students around him, and told jokes.

When the dinner started, Professor Dumbledore, who had not been there since that night in Paris, finally appeared in front of Sean.

He is in high spirits, and through the lens, he can still see the wisdom and gentleness in his lake blue eyes.

Dumbledore looked the same as before, and the confrontation with Grindelwald didn't seem to affect him in any way. He still smiled and chatted with the professors, and occasionally raised his glass to greet him.

Old Riddler... Sean didn't look much, and didn't try to get in touch with Dumbledore.

He knew all too well that as long as Dumbledore didn't want to see him, it was useless to think about it.

Perhaps, as Aurelius said, everything can only be explained clearly by Dumbledore and Grindelwald themselves.

It is worth mentioning that this year's Academy Cup was not awarded, and the trophy was still preserved by the previous champion Ravenclaw.

Dumbledore believes that the school has lost nearly half of its students, and Professor McGonagall, the dean of Gryffindor, has also gone to Nurmengard with the team, which makes the competition for the Academy Cup full of uncertainty.

After much consideration, the teachers unanimously agreed that the Academy Cup will not be awarded this time.

However, Sean felt that Snape might not be too happy - Daisy was not at the school, Snape gave very few points to other colleges throughout the second half of the school year, and in the end, Slytherin scored ahead of the others. Three colleges are a big part.

This is probably the reason why the professors "unanimously agreed".

The old bat sat on the professor's long table, his face was expressionless, and only occasionally used a fork to bring some food to his mouth.

Probably noticing Sean's gaze towards the professor's long table, Hermione touched him with her elbow and whispered, "Are you really not going to study two divination classes next semester?"

Sean nodded. "I don't think I have any talent for this."

This is actually an excuse. To be precise, Sean has already understood a little from the prophet Grindelwald.

Divination, prophecy, prophet, is this mysterious and mysterious magic real and effective? - Yes, it definitely works.

But there is no doubt that the wizards who can learn useful knowledge from these courses are basically the most special ones.

If you don't have the talent for divination, then even if you study for decades, your ability is not comparable to a prophet who just turned eleven. It sounds ruthless, but it's the truth.

So Sean decided not to take divination as an elective.

He plans to devote a lot of energy to the course of Ancient Rune next semester, even if he has only a little talent, but with the help of the masters and the cooperation of props, he should be able to learn a little bit, right?

Hermione supported her cheeks with some distress: "I'm struggling, whether to choose only one of arithmetic divination and divination."

Sean raised his eyebrows: "Do you have to choose so many?"

"Of course!" Hermione glared at him, "Now that the four major colleges have unified the big class model, I have enough time."

"Okay, I'm optimistic about you." Sean returned with a smile.

Hermione raised her nose proudly, and then became puzzled again: "But it's strange, I talked to Percy before, and he also took all the courses, but he didn't teach in the United College when he was in the third grade. How could he have time to take so many courses at the same time?"

Time changer... Sean smiled and didn't speak.

Daisy on the side listened to the conversation between the two. She narrowed her eyes slightly and took a sip of pumpkin juice.

She has always liked this kind of atmosphere where friends get together to discuss various things. Even if they don't join the chat, it is very interesting to listen to them.

Xiaobaihua looked around casually with pumpkin juice, and then happened to meet Snape on the long table in the classroom.

Daisy raised her glass of pumpkin juice to Snape, and smiled sweetly.

On the long table in the classroom, Professor McGonagall just turned her head, and then saw Snape who was motionless next to her, she wondered, "Severus, is the food today not to your taste?"

Snape shook the red wine glass and drank the wine inside: "No, today's dinner is very good, I am very satisfied."

"Uh, that's fine..."

When the dinner finally came to an end, Dumbledore stood up.

He glanced at all the students gently, and said slowly, "It's another school year, and you are leaving school tomorrow. First of all, I would like to congratulate the seventh grade students on their successful graduation!"

There was a burst of warm applause in the auditorium, and the seventh graders all stood up and bowed to Dumbledore.

"I hope that this year of study can fill your smart little brains with what you want. I hope you will be more clear about the path you want to take in the future, and I hope that you can live a healthy and happy life."

"I believe you and your friends have more to say. I'll stop here today, classmates, enjoy your summer vacation. Then, the magical world awaits your return."

Cheers and applause resounded throughout the auditorium.

The next day, they boarded the Hogwarts Express for the return journey. Sean, Hermione, and Daisy sat in a box and shared snacks. Harry's group followed George, Fred and the others. Channeling, the twins specially reserved a few fireworks for the return trip.

Percy, who had just become president of the Boys' Union, chased his brother all over the carriage, but the twins ran and shouted for help from Penello Clearwater - she was Ravenclaw's prefect, and Percy's new friend to the girlfriend.

The red-faced Percy quickly retreated under the smile of his girlfriend, but kept mumbling in his mouth to go back to make these two **** look good.

In the carriage of Sean and the others, Hermione used the last few spells on the train to practice spells. They were all underage, and they were not allowed to practice spells during the summer vacation.

However, it was only then that Sean thought that Grindelwald had lost his wand, and now he was using the other party's twig wand without a core. He never knew whether the trace was on the little wizard's body or the inside of his wand.

If the trace is in the wand, does that mean he can use magic freely during the summer?

During the summer vacation, you can ask Barty Jr., his father is preparing for the Minister of Magic election in the summer vacation, and he should have a good understanding of these things.

Daisy, on the other hand, blinked her eyes around Hermione's arm, and said in a glutinous voice: "You can come and play with me! In a wizarding family, the Ministry of Magic cannot accurately detect spells. Was it cast by the little wizard?"

Sean raised his eyebrows, the young wizards from the original wizard family have a great advantage in practicing magic spells.

Hermione was obviously a little moved, but this kind of behavior was obviously illegal. She said quite tangled: "But, but it's illegal... and your parents will also supervise us..."

Daisy smiled and hugged Hermione tighter: "Hee hee My dad is already an illegal Animagus, don't worry, they don't care about that."

Hermione bit her lip, and she was even more moved.

Sean said with a smile, "Go, Daisy has been kindly invited, and you're going to be an illegal Animagus next semester."

Sean's words became the last weight, Hermione sighed and looked at Daisy: "See you in summer!"

"Great!"

Daisy cheered and looked at Sean expectantly: "Sean?"

"I'll come and play with you when I get a chance."

"That's a deal!" The girl stretched out her little finger.

The train is gradually slowing down, and the station should be visible from the window in the distance.

Sean rubbed Daisy's head and tickled her with a smile: "It's a deal."
