Almost immediately, Myrtle "discovered" the real culprit.

"Pee-pee! I know it's you! It's Christmas, can't you just shut up for a minute? You're so annoying! I'm going to tell Bloody Barrow!"

The next moment, she ran away through the wall.

In the toilet, Xia Zhi found a copper faucet with a small snake carved on the side and spoke in a snake-like voice.

"Open!"

A white light emanated from the faucet, which spun rapidly away, revealing a water pipe large enough for someone to crawl into.

Summer Solstice transformed into Voldemort's younger self and crawled into the water pipes, as if playing on a sticky and slippery slide, to reach the secret room.

He walked forward for a while and found a very spacious hall.

Inside the hall stood a stone statue of Slytherin, but it did not depict him as a spirited young man; instead, it showed him as an old man.

Looking at the enormous Slytherin statue, Xia Zhi hissed like a snake.

"Speak to me, Slytherin - the greatest of the Hogwarts Four."

This is the incantation to summon the basilisk.

Soon, Slytherin's mouth opened, and it grew wider and wider until it became a huge, dark hole.

On the summer solstice, a rustling sound came from within.

He closed his eyes, and the flesh on his upper and lower eyelids twitched, tightly sealing the gap between his eyes.

The basilisk's eyes have the effect of causing immediate death, and Xia Zhi didn't know if they would work on her, so she decided to treat them as something that might be useful.

After closing her eyes, Xia Zhi's ears twitched, using her keen hearing and sharp sense of smell to pinpoint the location of the basilisk.

Although Summer Solstice used the Disillusionment Charm, the Basilisk did not use its eyes to capture its target.

It noticed that Xia Zhi, a stranger, was standing in front of it, and that he did not bear the aura of the contract left by his old master. It immediately opened its mouth and charged at him.

Snack time!

But the next moment, Xia Zhi stomped her right foot hard on the ground.

"There is a golden light covering my body!"

He cast the Golden Light Spell, enveloping Xia Zhi's body in a layer of dazzling golden light, and then jumped into the snake monster's mouth.

The basilisk was stunned and stuck out its tongue in confusion.

It feels like I ate something, but then again, it feels like I didn't.

Soon, Xia Zhi, who was crawling inside the basilisk's belly, arrived near its heart.

The basilisk's stomach contained highly corrosive digestive fluids, but Xia Zhi's Golden Light Mantra successfully blocked these fluids.

He raised his right arm, and blue-white lightning crackled within the basilisk's body, surging towards its enormous heart!

"Thunder in the Palm!"

Crack!

With a loud bang, blue-white lightning pierced through the basilisk's membrane and struck its heart.

With its heart severely injured, the basilisk's body rose high, emitting a howl of unbearable pain.

"hiss!"

The next moment, it lost consciousness, with only its body still convulsing in pain.

The basilisk's enormous tail and body slammed against the surrounding stone pillars with a thunderous roar.

Numerous stones were smashed by the basilisk's body, sending dirt and rocks flying, making it look like a demolition site.

Inside the basilisk, Xia Zhi transformed into a pool of blood, instantly enveloping the basilisk's heart and devouring it.

Then, focusing on the heart, he spent half a day digesting the entire thousand-year-old serpent monster.

Inside the secret chamber, Xia Zhi sat cross-legged, digesting the magic power she had just gained from devouring the basilisk into mana.

At this moment, he was covered with a layer of bluish-gray scales that were exactly the same as those of the basilisk. Not only did his eyes turn into dark yellow beastly pupils, but four long venomous fangs also protruded from his mouth, and his lower body turned into a long and thick tail.

Xia Zhi conjured up a mirror, illuminated it with flashing fluorescent light, and looked at her new form.

He touched his eyes, then grinned at the fangs and nodded.

"This form is not bad for combat. Both its petrifying eyes and venomous fangs are extremely lethal. But it's not good to use this form all the time."

As Xia Zhi activated his internal magic, his hard scales, thick tail, petrified snake eyes, and venomous fangs all slowly retracted into his body.

"Fix it quickly!"

Using a Restoration Charm to restore his clothes, Summer Solstice walked out of the Chamber of Secrets through the passage in Slytherin's mouth and discovered that the Chamber led to the Forbidden Forest outside the castle.

Because he had just devoured the basilisk, Xia Zhi exuded a faint basilisk aura.

After he appeared, both the birdsong and the chirping of insects immediately disappeared, and a large flock of birds in the nearby forest were startled and flew away.

"To be honest, I've been at Hogwarts for three months and haven't even been inside the Forbidden Forest yet."

Summer Solstice took out her wand and strode into the Forbidden Forest.

The Forbidden Forest is a primeval forest located within the Hogwarts area and is one of the few magical animal sanctuaries in the world.

In modern times, with human footprints and man-made structures covering the entire Earth, including deep within glaciers and deserts, countless amazing animals have lost their homes.

To protect these magical creatures and prevent them from being discovered by humans, the magical world has established many magical creature protection zones.

The Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts is most famous for its centaur tribe and unicorns.

Centaurs are undoubtedly intelligent beings. They speak human languages, have their own culture and thoughts, and are particularly skilled in astrology.

But like the Veela, because they are not human, they are still classified as magical creatures by wizards.

The horsemen had many complaints about this, and even became somewhat hostile towards humans because of it.

Besides centaurs and unicorns, there are many other things in the Forbidden Forest.

Examples include the Bowtruckle, Thestral, Hippogriff, and Giant Spider.

Not long after Xia Zhi entered the forbidden forest, he discovered an eight-eyed giant spider that was over a meter long.

At this moment, sensing the aura emanating from Xia Zhi's natural enemy, the serpent monster, the eight-eyed giant spider lay motionless on the ground, trembling with fear.

Chapter 285 Striking the Nest of the Eight-Eyed Giant Spider

However, as the summer solstice approached, the eight-eyed giant spider discovered that the basilisk's aura was actually emanating from this human, and was immediately puzzled.

The eight-eyed spiders all knew that basilisks existed in Hogwarts.

Every so often, a giant basilisk would rush into their nest and devour the eight-eyed giant spiders like cookies, satisfying its appetite.

The giant spider colony, released by Hagrid fifty years ago and now a tyrant in the Forbidden Forest, has no ability to even hide from its natural enemy, the Basilisk.

They have eight eyes that can see in all directions, but they have no eyelids at all.

This means that once the basilisk appears, they will be immediately petrified, with no way to stop or avoid it.

However, this does not mean that the eight-eyed giant spider is not strong.

This is a behemoth that can grow as large as a Wuling Hongguang minivan, and it is cruel, cunning, and very intelligent.

Most importantly, giant spiders are social creatures, and adults can generally exceed one meter in length.

When the giant eight-eyed spider realized that the basilisk's scent was emanating from Xia Zhi, a human, it immediately lost its fear.

"Gada gada gada da da..."

Its two huge mastiff teeth collided repeatedly, producing a crisp and continuous sound.

This is an eight-eyed giant spider calling for its companions.

At the same time, the giant eight-eyed spider's legs stopped shaking, and its large belly stopped trembling.

It lowered its body slightly, exerted force with its eight legs, and extended its two huge mastiff teeth in mid-air, pouncing fiercely towards Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi grabbed the magic wand and waved it.

"The Upside Down Golden Bell!"

This was a curse that Snape remembered vividly and hated with a vengeance.

After being hit by the Inverted Bell, the giant spider's entire body flipped over, its vulnerable abdomen facing upwards, suspended in mid-air by an invisible force.

But then, two more eight-eyed giant spiders jumped out of the surrounding grass.

Xia Zhi glanced at them and sneered.

"Perfect, let me try out this new form!"

Summer Solstice activated the magical power in his dantian, and his bloodline immediately underwent changes.

Fine, cold, bluish-gray scales emerged from his body, and a pair of narrow, elongated snake eyes, like those of Ultraman, replaced his gaze.

Xia Zhi's lower body transformed into a thick snake tail, while her upper body remained human, and her lower body resembled a serpent monster.

When his eyes, which possessed the power to petrify, shone upon them, the three eight-eyed giant spiders present seemed to turn into statues, remaining completely still.

Three tentacles extended from Xia Zhi's body and wrapped around three eight-eyed giant spiders.

After petrification, the eight-eyed giant spider's body became as hard as stone.

The tentacles extending from Xia Zhi's body continuously secrete powerful digestive fluids, softening the bodies of these eight-eyed giant spiders before devouring them.

"Although not as powerful as the Basilisk, there are a lot of giant spiders. If you eat a lot of giant spiders, it won't be difficult to impersonate Spider-Man."

On the summer solstice, what comes out of the mouth is no longer a tongue, but a long, forked snake tongue.

He followed the trail left by the eight-eyed giant spiders in the forbidden forest, his large eyes fixed on them as if they were about to die, and swayed as he quickly crawled back the way they had come.

"A thousand-year-old serpent monster plus a swarm of eight-eyed giant spiders, my Christmas feast is going to be quite interesting!"

The natural enemy of the eight-eyed giant spider is the basilisk.

However, apart from the thousand-year-old serpent monster in the secret chamber, there are no other serpent monsters in the Forbidden Forest.

Without natural predators, they reproduced freely in the Forbidden Forest. If it weren't for the thousand-year-old serpent monster occasionally coming out to feast on a hundred of them, they would probably have already taken over most of the Forbidden Forest.

Even today, the colony of the eight-eyed giant spider is still quite large.

The aura of the basilisk emanated from Xia Zhi, and the eight-eyed giant spiders that sensed it felt a deep sense of fear.

They fell from the trees and spiderwebs with a thud, scattering all over the ground, and then they saw Xia Zhi's eyes, all of which were petrified.

It stretches out a large number of tentacles from the summer solstice and has a hearty meal.

Some other unfortunate magical creatures also saw Xia Zhi's eyes, and Xia Zhi devoured them all without hesitation.

The leader of the eight-eyed giant spiders is the one that Hagrid bought and brought to Hogwarts fifty years ago, named Aragog.

It is very old, and all eight of its eyes have lost their sight.

But this doesn't mean it can defeat the thousand-year-old serpent monster.

Sensing the basilisk's presence, it gave orders to the surrounding eight-eyed giant spiders.

"Go, my children!"

Once the basilisk has filled its belly, it will retreat.

It's always the same.

A massive number of giant eight-eyed spiders crawled out of their nest and surged toward the summer solstice.

This scene would terrify people with trypophobia and arachnophobia.

Even an ordinary person watching this scene would get goosebumps.

But in Xia Zhi's eyes, it was as if countless fried chickens were running towards her!

Petrifying Eye is a passive skill and doesn't consume much mana.

One after another, the eight-eyed giant spiders were petrified on the spot. Xia Zhi simply turned his lower body into a pool of blood, devouring the eight-eyed giant spiders one by one.

Amidst the strong smell of blood, the basilisk aura emanating from him diminished significantly, putting Aragog at ease.

More than an hour later, as darkness fell, Xia Zhi, having devoured all the surrounding eight-eyed giant spiders, once again advanced towards the spiders' nest.

"The flames are blazing!"
