I'm a priest at Hogwarts

Chapter 118 Dumbledore's Battle
The successive loud noises have already alarmed many people. Orlando didn't dare to delay and hastily used the light body technique to speed up. The basilisk chased after it. It rushed into the hall all the way. A, the body of the [-]-meter-long snake makes a rumbling sound like a running train. Under the reflection of the blazing torches in the foyer, the basilisk glows bewitchingly red. go away.

Across the greenhouse and across the grass, Orlando chose the shortest path without hesitation, and passed the Whomping Willow before it could react.

After a while, there was the sound of crackling and whipping behind him, and the angry roar of the basilisk. You don't need to look at Orlando to know that the two of them have met. Professor Glenrup knew what he was doing, so it was no wonder he was skinned.

Orlando plunged into the Forbidden Forest without looking back, where Dumbledore had already cleared a large area.At this time, a light door appeared in front of him, and Orlando vaguely sensed that Dumbledore cast a magic barrier here, making it easier to get in and harder to get out.

Sure enough, as soon as I entered Orlando, I felt that the inside and the outside were two worlds. The outside could not sense the situation inside, and the sound inside could not be transmitted to the outside. Obviously, this was the battlefield or trap set by Dumbledore.

"Boy, why are you in such a mess?" Nicole Flamel and Dumbledore had been waiting for a long time.

"Forget it, when I left the castle, I was attacked by Lockhart who was controlled by the Dark Lord, and almost capsized in the gutter, well, that's it." Orlando handed the diary to Dumbledore.

"Lockhart?" the irascible Nico Flamel was about to ask who this man was?The basilisk had escaped from the Whomping Willow and rushed over.

"Teacher, we'll talk about this later, let's make room first." Orlando gave Nico Flamel a look.

"Alright, Albus will leave the rest to you."

"Leave it to me, you all back away first." Dumbledore shook his head helplessly.

The two quickly backed up until they reached the stone platform behind them.

"Teacher, it's not good for us to do this." Following the example of Nicole Flamel, Orlando leaned back in the chair, crossed his legs, and watched the play happily while drinking black tea.

"What's wrong, we are guests, we can't take the lead, now it's time for Albus to perform, we just watch the play quietly."

Dumbledore is worthy of being the most powerful white wizard in this century. Seeing his wand touch the boulder pile a little, a three-story stone lion came to life, let out a roar, and blocked the basilisk's path.

The stone lion is the product of Transfiguration, it has no flesh and blood, no soul, no fear of the snake pupils and fangs of the basilisk, the two quickly wrestled together, while Dumbledore was not idle, he just tapped his wand He muttered something, and soon a magic cage rose up around the basilisk and the stone lion, blocking their retreat.

The stone lion, which lost Dumbledore's command, soon fell into a disadvantage, and was rolled up and twisted into pieces by the basilisk. He had promised Nico Flamel to capture the basilisk alive, and he couldn't just finish it like this.

Dumbledore commanded the wand to transform into two stone lions again. This time, the stone lions kept a certain distance from the basilisk, one in front and the other behind. They were only responsible for provocation but did not take the initiative to attack. Go round and round.

Dumbledore, who was not far away, took this opportunity to complete his magic, and vines as thick as the mouth of a bowl rose from the ground. These were transformed from felled trees through transfiguration, and they entangled like spider webs. On the huge body of the basilisk.

At first, the basilisk broke through these vines with its huge body and great strength, but as Dumbledore increased the transmission of magic power, more and more vines were attached to the basilisk at an increasing speed. Quickly, when the dense vines covered the entire body of the basilisk, it was powerless to struggle. At this moment, the stone lion jumped over and gave it a final blow, stepping on its high head, and the basilisk let out a mournful roar. He fell to the ground with a thud.

"Let's go, the good show is over, it's time for us to play." Nicole Flamel put away the teapot and said with a smile.

The two came to Dumbledore's side.

"Old man, I haven't seen you for many years, but your Transfiguration is still so superb." Nicole Flamel praised without hesitation.

"I'm old, I can't do it. I just moved a little bit, and I feel like my whole body is falling apart." Dumbledore said with a smile: "I will leave it to you, let me experience your soul magic Bar."

"Look." Nicole Flamel walked up to the basilisk deliberately showing off, thinking of a competition.

"Teacher, watch out for its eyes." Orlando wanted to step forward to stop Nicole Flamel, but he stopped him with a wave of his hand.

It turned out that at this time Nicole Flamel had already closed his eyes and sealed his five senses, relying entirely on his powerful soul perception to communicate with the outside world.

He used his wand to draw a five-pointed star in the air. Under the night sky, the five-pointed star gave off a faint golden light, and then sank into the top of the basilisk.

Following Nico Flamel's casting of the spell, the screaming and struggling basilisk gradually became quiet, and the pupils looking at Nico Flamel no longer flashed the deadly green light.

It seemed that some agreement had been reached, Nicole Flamel withdrew his magic and walked back.

"Teacher, how is it?"

Dumbledore also looked over, obviously waiting for an answer.

"This thousand-year-old basilisk is not low in intelligence. It has clearly understood its situation. It has agreed to sign a soul contract." Before Orlando was happy, Nicole Flamel continued: "But it has a prerequisite, it must It needs to be defeated head-on by killing the person who summoned his master, which is also the contract magic left by Salazar Slytherin."

Dumbledore looked at Orlando playfully, although he subdued the basilisk easily, it was because he had set up the battlefield early.

The basilisk, who didn't know it, jumped in headlong, facing a prepared and powerful transfiguration master who restrained him, he was completely defeated without using any skills, which made people feel that it was so big and powerful. It's not good, but Dumbledore, who knows the inside story, doesn't think so.

After saying this, Nicole Flamel didn't continue talking, but looked at Orlando and waited for his decision.

"Teacher, please tell it again, I don't need magic, but it is not allowed to use snake eyes and fangs. We will win or lose in a physical fight." Orlando took out the mace that he hadn't used for a long time from the psychic bracelet .

Don't look at this mace as inconspicuous, but he found it out of Nicole Flamel's hundreds of years of alchemy collection. It is made of pure black jade and gold crystals. It is hard and can amplify magic. Don't look at it, it is only seven feet eight It is inch long, but weighs [-] jin. It is difficult for ordinary people to lift it, let alone use it.

"Are you sure? I'm sure, teacher."

Nicole Flamel knew for a long time that his cheap apprentice was a giant humanoid monster with great strength and vigor, and that he might be able to defeat the basilisk by himself, so he didn't plan to say anything.

Not surprisingly, the basilisk agreed to Orlando's request. According to its cognition, the little guy in front of him could entangle him to death with his tail without using talent skills.

"Are you ready?" After maintaining such a large range of magic for a long time, Dumbledore gradually felt a little overwhelmed, and he couldn't help urging.

"Ready, professor, you can let it out." Orlando said a step forward.
