I wield a sword at Hogwarts

As long as all the mechanisms are destroyed, it is equivalent to having no mechanisms.

The wand dragged the white light of lightning, and with a flick of John's hand, all the mechanisms were triggered.

The white light shatters all mechanisms and the road becomes safe.

He walked under the guillotine mechanism with only the ax handle left, and reached the other side of the cliff.

Pick up the snake-eye gem. The statue in front of you is similar to the human-faced snake outside the pyramid.

The human face of the statue is an old man with a long beard and a purple hat.

The wrinkles on the face are carved into the face of the statue.

This is an upright human-faced snake. Different from the '8' on the outside, the human-faced snake stands like a straight magic wand in front of it.

Behind the statue is a huge hourglass.

But just like the one in John's hand, this huge hourglass was in dilapidated condition, and the sands of time on it had long since disappeared.

After studying the giant hourglass for a while, John discovered something else.

It was a huge snake-like white bone.

Its body has disappeared, but judging from the situation, this snake should have been guarding here.

It's just that too much time has passed and the snake's lifespan has been exhausted and it has turned into a white skeleton.

"Looking at its skeleton, it seems to be a basilisk."

John rubbed his chin and circled the bones.

A basilisk of this size would probably live longer than the one at Hogwarts.

But even the basilisk has died of old age. How many years ago did the owner of this place exist?

"As far as I know, apart from Salazar Slytherin, there is only one other wizard who keeps the basilisk."

John murmured to himself, looking up at the snake with a human face.

On the list of the top ten dark wizards in the world, a guy who is as evil as Extis.

It can even be said that he is more evil than Extis.

Because he created a magic that everyone thought was extremely evil.

Horcrux.

Pure killing, splitting souls apart, as a way to achieve immortality.

In John's opinion, that wizard was an enhanced version of Voldemort.

Even someone as powerful as Voldemort needs to pick up his wits so that he can survive.

At the same time, it is also the oldest dark wizard.

A man who used toads to hatch eggs and create a basilisk.

The first person to refine Horcruxes, and until John's time, no one was sure of his death.

He created many evil curses that still affect the wizarding world today.

This is not an Egyptian pyramid.

It belonged to an ancient Greek wizard.

The person who can be ranked first among the top ten dark wizards in the world.

The active period ranked earlier than the Big Four of Hogwarts and the three brothers.

"Despicable Herbo." John looked at the statue and said the name slowly.

If the dastardly Herbo Horcrux had not been destroyed, he would have almost achieved immortality.

…

Chapter 526 Hello, basilisk

"Now it's time to use the hourglass again."

John's tail hooked the soul lamp, and a silver soul flew out from the soul lamp.

After pouring it into the hourglass, the golden Möbius strip flows.

John flipped the hourglass over and the scene around him changed rapidly.

The place that was originally in ruins is now back to what it was like a thousand years ago.

The fragments that fell off the statue of the human-faced snake began to return to the body.

The broken giant hourglass was repaired bit by bit.

Over time, the hourglass was repaired and golden sand gathered inside at the bottom.

John's hourglass streamer stared at the hourglass full of sand of time above.

He only needs to turn it now to bring this ancient tomb that has been sleeping for thousands of years back to that era.

"This large time-turner affects enough space to cover this pyramid."

John walked around the hourglass until he reached the bottom and tapped it with his wand.

"Tip over."

A little magic dragging the bottom.

The huge hourglass made a long crunching sound.

The part supported in the middle of the hourglass seemed to be unable to hold up, and it turned over with difficulty.

John stared at the hourglass and spent ten minutes turning it.

Finally, it was completely inverted, and golden quicksand flowed from the top of the flip to the bottom.

The first grain of sand of time fell to the bottom, and a golden rhythm emanated from the hourglass.

This wavelength quickly covers the entire pyramid.

At the same time, things started to change around me.

The first is the human-faced snake, which has lost its color over the years.

But now, color appears again on the body of the human-faced snake.

The uneven stones on the ground became smooth again.

Gold is spread on the ground, making the entire space golden and bright.

A rumbling sound came from the bottom of the cliff.

From the lowest point, a touch of gold emerges, followed by a continuous upward spurt.

When John looked at it, he saw countless treasures.

The craggy rocks on the upper level turn golden, and cascades of sand flow down below.

The sands of time.

The entire pyramid changed, and in the corridors lining the pyramid, figures appeared and flashed past in reverse.

"Replay it at the rate of one year per second."

John looked solemn, this gesture was not a big deal.

"Reshaping the entire pyramid is an ambitious design."

The time turner allows people to be transported to a certain moment in time, and this is actually the time anchor that transports the pyramid from a certain moment to the present.

John needs to express his admiration for such accomplishments in time magic.

The reinvention continues, measured in time.

John came to a surprising conclusion.

This place has existed for over a thousand years.

What an ancient existence this is.

As the last sharp golden dome fell on the dome in an upside-down form, John could finally get a glimpse of the true appearance of the pyramid.

The pyramid made of infinite treasures and the sands of time reappears in the world as time goes by.

The body of the human-faced snake gradually bends to form a ‘?’ shape.

John has no shortage of Sands of Time. There are many times more Sands of Time stored here than in the Ministry of Magic.

A large amount of sands of time gathered to form a special area.

John put down the snake-eye gem, and the scene in front of him did not change.

This special realm freezes time, and now you don’t need a snake-eye gem to see scenes from thousands of years ago.

The sands of time crowd out each other and flow in the sky like a river.

John threw the broken time turner inside.

Just like drawing water, when the time turner was taken out again, it was filled with the sand of time.

John's purpose was achieved.

He looked up at the human-faced snake and approached the human-faced snake.

The curved human-faced snake is even weirder than before.

John has a strange idea.

"It's moving."

The moment the idea came to his mind, John heard movement.

A hissing sound came from behind the human-faced snake.

John recognized the meaning.

"Hungry……"

Immediately afterwards, a basilisk larger than the one in the Hogwarts Chamber of Secrets slowly poked its head out.

This is a basilisk from a thousand years ago. As it continues to shed its skin, it is more than twice as big as its kind.

The terrifying body slid on the ground, making a frightening hissing sound.

John stared at the basilisk with its head sticking out, and he thought of the snake skin he had touched when he fell.

It seems that they are all the shedding of this snake.

This snake is older than the one at Hogwarts.

The cause of death, John guessed, was that the entire pyramid was eaten.

Previously, he found gold parts in the basilisk bones, which may be because the basilisk accidentally ate the treasures.

Smelling the smell of food, the basilisk slowly turned its head.

Its movements were slow and non-threatening.

But basilisks don't need excellent speed. They have eyes that can kill their prey.

At that moment, the basilisk's orange eyes met John's.

Normally, the prey falls dead and the basilisk feasts.

But the fact is.

The basilisk's eyes widened and he asked in confusion, "It's so strange. Why is he okay?"

The huge body gradually swam out, and the basilisk didn't understand why John was okay.

The size was more intimidating than the skeleton John saw.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the Snake King.

John looked up at this time, and a pair of slender vertical pupils that were different from dragon pupils appeared in his eyes, giving his whole person a colder temperament.

He said, "Hello, basilisk."
