The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 40 The time to harvest has come

[Terrifying power, is this your strength? It's not enough, this alone is not enough.]

Lucius's eyes were fixed on Weiss, a complex mix of emotions in them.

He was secretly thinking in his heart that the powerful strength displayed by this young man made him feel surprised, but also made him feel a little worried.

Ms. Bones opened her mouth in surprise. At that moment, she seemed to see the shadow of Dumbledore in Weiss.

She quickly realized her mistake and closed her mouth, but the shock in her heart took a long time to subside.

Umbridge, who had just run away, had quietly hidden behind Dumbledore at some point. She stuck her head out and nervously watched the fierce battle.

There was a hint of fear in her eyes when she looked at Wes. She had never thought that Wes was such a powerful wizard who could compete with the legendary basilisk.

However, Weiss had no time to care about their thoughts at this time.

The basilisk slowly crawled out of the sea of fire. Its body was completely intact and its scales were still as smooth as before.

Wes was not surprised by this. After all, if the basilisk could be dealt with so easily, it would not be listed as one of the most dangerous creatures.

Although the basilisk's eyes are blindfolded, it has inherited some of the properties of a snake and can keenly perceive the surrounding scenery even without relying on vision.

It knew clearly that the wizards in front of it were its enemies.

[I haven't eaten in a long time. I'm really hungry. Let me feed on these people.]

Driven by hunger and brutality, the basilisk let out a low hiss and rushed towards Weiss rapidly.

It was extremely fast, and its huge body was like a moving mountain, bringing up a gust of wind.

Weiss immediately waved his wand, and as he cast a spell, the snake-like carvings wrapped around the ancient pillars seemed to be given life. They fell off one after another and turned into lifelike snakes.

They twisted their bodies, and under Wes's command, the snakes charged towards the basilisk like a surging tide.

Although these carved snakes are not as big as the basilisk, they are as agile as a real group of snakes. Under Wes's control, they formed waves of attacks to try to stop the basilisk's advance.

However, the size difference between the two sides was too great, and the basilisk rushed all the way, knocking the snakes away effortlessly.

Each impact caused the ground to tremble slightly, demonstrating its unparalleled power.

The basilisk advanced aggressively, and was about to rush to Wes.

Weiss calmly flicked his wand, and it seemed as if an entire lake of water was summoned.

A turbulent, violent torrent suddenly appeared and swept the basilisk away.

The water flowed rapidly, making a huge noise, and hit the basilisk like a waterfall.

The basilisk continued to move towards Wes in the rapids, struggling hard to break free from the current.

But Weiss had great control over his magic, and he brought his wand to his mouth and exhaled softly.

"Hu~~"

With this breath, a chill swept through the entire secret room, the temperature dropped sharply, and the basilisk was frozen into an ice sculpture.

All the summoned water froze, forming a huge icicle that trapped the basilisk inside.

The entire secret room seemed to have turned into a world of ice and snow, and the cold atmosphere made people shudder.

The three were stunned by Weiss's magical attainments.

Lucius was more surprised than surprised. He thought to himself: "With such strength and Dumbledore, even the Dark Lord in his prime would not be their opponent."

Admiration flashed in Ms. Bones' eyes as she realized that Weiss was more than just a young wizard, his strength and wisdom were beyond his years.

Umbridge was more fearful, as she knew very well that if such a powerful wizard became her enemy, it would bring huge trouble.

Seeing the basilisk was frozen, several people couldn't help but feel relieved, thinking that the crisis had been resolved.

"Hoo~~" Umbridge exhaled into her hands, then rubbed them together, hoping to warm herself up. "It seems the basilisk isn't that..."

"Shut up." Weiss's voice was small, but it carried an unquestionable majesty as she interrupted Umbridge.

"What?" Umbridge doubted her ears for a moment. As a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Magic, when had she ever been treated like this?

"I said shut up." Weiss stared at Umbridge coldly.

Umbridge sensed the chill in Weiss's tone and involuntarily took a few steps back.

At that moment, the basilisk's ice sculpture began to shake, and the ice crackled with a crackling sound. The basilisk was still alive, its tenacity astonishing. "Looks like we need to be a little more rough."

Weiss shifted his gaze to the Slytherin statue and gave a wicked smile: "Let your master deal with you."

His wand drew mysterious tracks in the air, and magic power surged, as if weaving an invisible web.

The ground began to tremble, stones began to fall, and some stone pillars collapsed under the heavy weight.

Under the astonished gaze of the four people, the statue of Slytherin began to move.

The huge statue seemed to be given life.

"Oh, why didn't I think of that?" Dumbledore patted his head in frustration. "Young people still have ideas."

"It's making too much noise. Will this place collapse?" Ms. Bones looked worriedly at the rocks falling from the top of the secret room.

"Don't worry." Dumbledore raised his right hand and performed a repair spell.

A soft light enveloped the secret room, and the fallen stones seemed to be held up by an invisible force, slowly returning to their original positions.

Seeing Dumbledore take action, Weiss let go.

The basilisk had just broken free from the icy restraints, but before it could react, it was firmly grasped by a pair of huge hands made of magic.

Weiss's wand drew commands in the air, and the statue seemed to come alive, swung the basilisk up and slammed it to the ground.

A deep pit was smashed into the hard ground, and dust flew everywhere.

The basilisk shook its stunned head, it seemed that it had not yet recovered from the sudden attack.

Weiss could even see a hint of confusion on its face.

"Let me give you a taste of this." Under Wes's control, the statue swung the basilisk around and smashed it to the ground again and again.

Front, back, left, right.

"boom!"

"How cruel," Dumbledore murmured, "how cruel."

The other three watched with their mouths open as one of the most powerful beings in the wizarding world was tossed around like a rag bag.

Finally, the basilisk lay on the ground limply like a noodle, motionless.

Weiss stopped the spell, the statue loosened its grip, and the basilisk fell heavily to the ground.

Weiss used a spell to find out that the basilisk had no signs of life. He turned to Dumbledore and said, "It's solved. The rest is up to you."

His tone was calm as if he had done something small.

Dumbledore nodded slightly, and he slowly left the Chamber of Secrets with Lucius and the other two.

Lucius had a complicated expression on his face, a mixture of excitement and a hint of worry.

Umbridge looked at Weiss, fear in her eyes.

In her eyes, Weiss was an extremely dangerous person. She was keenly aware that Weiss had no respect for the Ministry of Magic, and she wanted to stay away from Weiss as soon as possible.

After everyone left, Weiss raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and he snapped his fingers lightly, and the crisp sound echoed in the silent room.

Zhan Di, who was hiding in the dark, immediately appeared dragging a suitcase.

“Then it’s harvest time.”

Weiss's voice was filled with excitement and anticipation.

Some tools floated out of the suitcase, including a saw, a hammer, and even a scalpel.

The tools gleamed coldly in the dim light.
