Chapter 163 Ella
"Stop"
Jiang Li used the Parseltongue translator to issue orders to the basilisk.
The basilisk's movements became noticeably stiff the moment it did, and the next second it began to struggle frantically.
Its huge body is the most powerful weapon in this space. Anyone who is hit by it will either die or be disabled.
The basilisk's eyes were shielded by Snape's spell, and it had no way of seeing Jiang Li's existence.
Seeing that the basilisk was still so energetic, Jiang Li directly slashed down from the top of its head with the sword, turning up its skin and flesh, and the blood inside spurted out.
At first the basilisk struggled violently, but gradually began to lose strength.
"Boom!"
The huge snake head fell down weakly and hit the ground heavily, making a loud noise.
The only sound in the entire secret room was the sound of flowing water coming from the snake head-shaped fountain.
Snape nervously ran towards Jiang Li.
Jiang Li jumped down from the snake's head, wiped his face calmly, the sword of Gryffindor in his hand was still dripping with blue blood, and his heart relaxed.
Seeing Snape coming over, Jiang Li smiled.
She waved at Snape and said in an excited voice, "There is a lot of basilisk blood here. Don't waste it. Put it in a jar quickly."
Seeing that she was still in the mood to talk about this, Snape walked up to her with a sullen face, feeling it necessary to make her realize how dangerous her behavior was.
"hurry up."
Before Snape could speak, Jiang Li stuffed the bottle and gloves into his hands.
"The blood will become stale in a moment. The blood of a basilisk is very expensive and you can't buy it normally."
He directly interrupted Snape's sermon before he even finished speaking.
He immediately followed Jiang Li to collect blood.
The blood of the basilisk is poisonous, so you need to be especially careful when collecting its blood.
Jiang Li placed his white-gloved hand on the snake's head and pressed the Parseltongue translator with one hand.
"I know you're not dead yet."
"Would you like to taste the barbecue?"
Snape was drawing blood here, and when he turned around, he saw Jiang Li prying open the basilisk's mouth and stuffing a roast chicken into it.
???
After doing all this, Jiang Li patted the snake's head and continued to translate in Parseltongue.
"Is it tasty?"
Suddenly, the snake's head moved and the basilisk's eyes were about to open.
Jiang Li simply pressed down the basilisk's eyelids with both hands, preventing it from opening its eyes.
Basilisk: “…”
"No eyes allowed"
The basilisk's head immediately stopped moving, as if it was dead.
When Snape discovered that the basilisk was not dead, his expression instantly became solemn.
He wanted to take Jiang Li away, but when he thought about her usual style of doing things, he knew that she must have a backup plan, so he had to stop abruptly.
He cast a petrification spell and a binding spell on the basilisk to prevent it from suddenly attacking Jiang Li.
Jiang Li felt that the snake monster was very similar to the monster he had raised before.
She tentatively probed her spiritual sense into the basilisk's consciousness.
Perhaps because it was too weak, the basilisk had no defenses against it at all and Jiang Li easily succeeded in making the contract with it.
Jiang Li was also stunned.
It turns out that basilisks can actually be contracted?
"It hurts so much. It hurts so much."
A childish little girl's voice came into my mind.
"You are actually a female!"
Jiang Li looked at the huge snake monster in surprise. He thought it was a male.
"Who are you and why are you able to talk to me?"
The voice of the little girl in my mind also revealed shock.
"I am your friend and master. You have to listen to me from now on." Jiang Li said seriously.
"Friends? What is that?"
This time Jiang Li was stuck.
“Friends are partners who help each other, fight side by side, and accompany each other.”
"Can I eat it, friend?"
"No, you can't eat people casually, otherwise you will be killed as a monster."
"What is a monster?"
"Something that is different from the ordinary and makes people feel scared."
"Then I am a monster. I am scary, but now I am about to die. I am not scary anymore, so I am not a monster."
"You won't die. I will save you."
"Why did you save me?"
"Because we are friends."
"..."
Then there was a long silence in my mind.
Jiang Li looked up at Snape and said, "Do you have any healing potion?"
"Yes, are you hurt?"
Snape's expression became noticeably more nervous, and he took out all the potions he had prepared.
"I'm not injured. I need to treat the basilisk."
Jiang Li patted the big head of the basilisk, smiled brightly and said: "From now on, it will follow us."
Snape wondered if he had heard it wrongly.
"You want to keep this snake monster? Do you know how dangerous it is?"
He wanted to wake Jiang Li up and see what she was thinking.
This is a creature of the highest danger level recognized by magic and cannot be tamed at all.
"I know. I have signed a contract with it. It will obey my orders completely."
Jiang Li touched the big head of the basilisk. The snake scales were slippery and felt cool to the touch.
Snape recalled the memory he had seen before. Jiang Li seemed to have a pet that was even more terrifying than a basilisk.
For a moment I didn't know what to say.
Seeing Jiang Li staring at him expectantly, Snape had a blank expression on his face. He looked at Jiang Li with disdain while helping him heal the wounds on the basilisk's body.
"You'd better not let anyone know that you have a basilisk as a pet. I don't want to visit you in Azkaban.
If you get hurt by a basilisk, don't blame me for not warning you."
"Don't worry, it will never hurt anyone. It's just a baby snake."
Jiang Li touched the big head of the basilisk, his eyes full of pampering.
Hearing this, Snape's mouth twitched.
How could a baby snake be bigger than a building? Jiang Li wouldn’t like to raise these weird creatures in the future, right?
Although he disagreed with Jiang Li's idea, Snape still worked hard to help treat the basilisk.
The basilisk, which was originally dying, slowly recovered its vitality with the help of spells and potions.
The basilisk raised its head and its eyelids moved. Jiang Li immediately gave a warning.
"Don't open your eyes."
The basilisk immediately closed its eyes and rubbed its huge head towards Jiang Li.
Snape was frightened by what he saw and drew his wand, ready to attack at any time.
Jiang Li could feel the basilisk's closeness to him, so he raised his hand and touched its head.
She turned to Snape and said, "Would you like to touch it?"
"No." Snape said without hesitation.
He didn't want to be with such a dangerous creature.
"That won't do. Ella will stay by your side from now on, so you two need to get to know each other." Jiang Li said, touching the basilisk's head.
"What Ella?"
Snape had a bad feeling in his heart, and he said to Jiang Li: "You didn't give this snake a name, did you?"
"Yes, isn't the name Ella very nice? I've thought about it for a long time and I think girls should have a cute name." Jiang Li said happily.
Hearing this, Snape was paralyzed.
Ella next to him sensed Jiang Li's thoughts and swam towards Snape.
Seeing this, Snape subconsciously raised his wand to attack the basilisk.
