Chapter 211 Being Targeted
The original plot had some changes due to Snape's whim and Hermione intervening, but what Locke didn't expect was that after he left, Professor Lockhart would have no face to stay any longer, but Snape still Take over the next demo.

He arranged for Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy to compete on stage, and the result revealed the ability of Harry Potter's Parseltongue, and because of this, everyone began to distance themselves from Harry.

It's no wonder that these people have scruples. There are many signs that Harry is closely related to everything that happened recently. Especially a few days later, the reappearance of the victim made Harry fall into the vortex of public opinion.

And Harry's affairs also made Lockhart's affairs inconspicuous to a certain extent. During this period of time, he kept a low profile and didn't make any fuss. He even wanted to avoid Hermione a little bit.

Unknowingly, it came to the Christmas holiday again. Unlike the past where some students would stay in school, this time the students who were worried about being attacked all chose to leave the school that had become unsafe.

Because of these turmoil, the parents of the students also began to express dissatisfaction, especially Lucius Malfoy was still jumping up and down at this time, accusing him of negligence in this matter on many occasions.

Lucius Malfoy was determined not to stop Dumbledore from being the headmaster, and Dumbledore's external behavior seemed to be really messed up.

Undercurrents are surging in private, but on the surface everything is still operating step by step. A few days after the holiday, Locke was walking in the corridor of the school, preparing to go to the principal's office, discussing the next move with Dumbledore, and suddenly walked A little pause.

"I didn't expect that I was also being targeted." Long accustomed to turning on the magic perception all the time, Locke instantly noticed the basilisk at the corner of the corridor in front of him, and there was a slight friction sound at the same time.

The basilisk seemed to want to ambush itself, hiding almost motionless around the corner. If it wasn't for Locke's extremely keen five senses, he wouldn't be able to detect the subtle breathing and friction sounds.

"Apparition!" Locke cast a spell, and a person who looked exactly like him appeared next to him. This magical form even had a certain texture. It was not a simple illusion, but its quality in all aspects was average. Ordinary, easily broken up.

Controlling the phantom slowly approaching the corner of the corridor, suddenly the basilisk rushed out, and its huge body directly hit the phantom.

"Pfft!" The phantom was shattered by the huge force, and before the basilisk figured out what was going on, Locke's attack had already arrived.

"Shenfeng Wuying!" This magic looks simple, but its power is actually quite good. At this moment, Locke cast it, flying a few meters away, and successfully hit the giant head of the basilisk.

"Hiss!" The basilisk wailed in pain, and then seemed to be irritated. Obviously, the natural tough skin of this basilisk gave him a strong protective ability. Although Shenfeng Wuying just now was painful, it did not cause anything. Serious injury.

The enraged basilisk found Locke, and suddenly increased its speed. With the sound of friction, it opened its huge mouth and bit Locke.

Looking at the movement of the basilisk, Locke was extremely calm, and using guns and martial arts calculations, he came up with a suitable countermeasure in an instant.

I saw his legs suddenly hopped hard, then turned around in mid-air, and with a shake of his hand, there was an extra metal epee in his hand.

The basilisk flew into the air, and then Locke volleyed down, and the giant sword aimed directly at the basilisk's eyeballs and stabbed it.

But what Locke didn't expect was that he didn't feel the sharp sword piercing, but had a flexible touch, which let Locke know that his sword did not cause harm to the basilisk as he wished.

Frowning, Locke didn't expect that the basilisk was stronger than he expected. He knew that the basilisk was very resistant to magic, so he thought of using physical methods to deal with it, but he didn't expect that the physical defense was also very strong.

The sword slashed on the basilisk's eyelid just now, but it just caused it pain. In the ever-changing battle, Locke's mind changed sharply, constantly thinking about the way to deal with it.

And being stabbed in the eyelid, under the severe pain, the basilisk lifted its head up in an instant, and its head happened to hit Locke in mid-air.

Fortunately, through guns and martial arts, Locke had already included the reaction of the basilisk. With a slight turn of his body, the head of the basilisk hit his feet, and then he jumped back more than ten meters away with the help of the basilisk. The location of the strange tail.

Landing on the ground and stabilizing his body, Locke watched the basilisk constantly shake and reveal because of the sharp pain in the eyeballs. Locke was thinking about how to deal with it.

Of course, powerful modern weapons cannot be used at Hogwarts. If there is a big commotion and the school is demolished, even if it can be restored, he will not feel better, so he can only use appropriate magic.

And the basilisk is very resistant to magic. Just now, the magic front has no shadow. Locke can cut even the iron plate, but it doesn't cut the basilisk's skin. From this point of view, Locke doesn't have many choices.

Unless using top-notch magic such as the Divine Fire Curse, Locke can only entangle it with physical means.

Thinking so in his heart, Locke was about to recite the spell, but unexpectedly, at this moment, he heard footsteps not far away, thinking about what he had discussed with Dumbledore, not to reveal too much strength for the time being , the curse in Locke's mouth became: "Be careful, don't come over!"

Then, Locke thought of some habits of the basilisk in the plot, and used the onomatopoeia spell, and a loud cock crow echoed in the long corridor.

Hearing this sound, the basilisk's body suddenly shrank, and it opened its huge mouth, stuck out its tongue and hissed twice without knowing what it said.

Perhaps the sound of the cock crowing played a role, or maybe it sensed that someone was approaching. The basilisk suddenly turned around and rushed to the corner. Locke followed carefully and found that the basilisk's tail disappeared into a pipe.

"What happened!" Perhaps because of the commotion just now, professors including Dumbledore and the four branch deans rushed over one after another, and then began to ask Locke about the situation.

"I have nothing to do, I just encountered an attack." Locke hesitated and looked at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore understood what Locke meant. He had been deliberately concealing the basilisk before, and Locke was asking if he should tell the truth.

"It's a basilisk." Dumbledore thought for a while, and then chose to speak out.

"Basilisk?" Snape was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't react immediately. After all, he was not like Locke. He already knew the plot, so he naturally understood who was behind the basilisk.

"This is not the place to talk, let's go to my office and talk slowly," Dumbledore said.

"Do you want to send Locke to the infirmary first?" Professor McGonagall interjected at this time.

"Thank you for your concern, but I have nothing to do." Locke said: "Because I found out in advance, I was prepared, so I was not attacked."

"Okay." Professor McGonagall looked at Locke, whose clothes were not messed up, nodded, and stopped asking.

"Okay, let's all come to my office first and discuss this matter together." Dumbledore said in a timely manner.
