Hogwarts: From Luna's House to Godhood Through Intense Competition

Not only that, but a glass bottle filled with silvery-white liquid fell out of his body.

Without hesitation, Tom Riddle gathered the light around him and scooped the glass bottle into his hand.

As he reached for the wand, Vizette uttered the spell first, "Wand, fly!"

Just as Tom Riddle was about to grab the wand, it flew into Vizzett's hand.

"No! The energy expenditure is too great! I can't linger here any longer!" Tom Riddle's eyes flickered, and he suddenly floated up, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

……

"It's faster than I expected." Vizette looked down at Lockhart's wand. "Is this a fragment of the soul? How bizarre!"

“Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult to detect him through conventional means…” He gently shook his wand, causing the giant fire serpent to vanish into nothingness.

Recalling the glass bottle in Tom Riddle's arms, Vizette murmured to herself, "Something more precious than a wand? What was in that bottle?"

“It’s probably unicorn blood…” Ferenze’s face was grim. “Perhaps a unicorn has been killed!”

Vizette frowned. "Is this why he came to the Forbidden Forest? Besides inciting the eight-eyed spiders to attack Hogwarts, he also wants unicorn blood?"

Ferenze sighed, "Unicorn blood can prolong life... even for those on the verge of death, it's more effective than phoenix tears!"

"But the side effects contained in the blood... that invisible yet deadly curse, will likely cause the user to pay a terrible price!"

Dumbledore once said something similar, and Vizet, out of curiosity, wanted to know exactly what price she would have to pay.

However, he couldn't find any relevant information, either on or off campus, and usually just mentioned it as "at a heavy price".

He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mr. Ferenczer, what exactly was the terrible price we paid? Do you know?"

Ferenze recalled, "According to our word of mouth, once you drink the blood of a unicorn, any plans you make afterward may go awry and fail to come to fruition..."

Just then, a rumbling sound suddenly came from afar.

Ferenze's expression changed. "I should have told you earlier! They're here! Those creatures driven away by the eight-eyed giant spiders!"

The ground trembled, and not far away was a small hill-like figure, a furious giant monster, frantically waving its arms, trying to grab the eight-eyed giant spider wandering in the forest.

Vizette snapped her fingers, burning the spider silk off the giant spider. Before the spider could even turn over, it was grabbed by the giant monster and slammed back to the ground...

“Let’s go quickly!” Ferenze bent down. “I’ll take you away from here.”

“I have a better way!” Vizette looked at the ever-growing number of enormous figures and shook his head slightly. “Where is the nest of the Eight-Eyed Giant Spider?”

“It’s just ahead.” Ferenze immediately pointed into the distance.

"Then take me there!" Vizet transformed into the phoenix Animagus and took flight.

Ferenczek quickly gathered his strength, pushed off with all four hooves, grabbed Vizet's claws in mid-air, and began to guide the direction.

……

Compared to the imposing presence in the distance, this territory belonging to the eight-eyed giant spider gave Vizette a sense of tranquility.

Along the way, there were only large spider webs hanging from the trees and pieces of bone and flesh stuck in them, with no other traces of living creatures.

The surrounding trees grew increasingly dilapidated, gradually turning into a misty expanse. Ferenze whispered, "Put me down! If we're both in the air, we'll be easier targets."

Once back on the ground, Ferencé carried Vizette forward until they came to a wide depression.

The center of the depression was shrouded in a hazy mist that blocked out the sun. Only upon close inspection could one discern that it was a giant, hemispherical spider web.

Scattered around the spider web were countless eggs of the eight-eyed giant spider, which were densely packed together and would occasionally throb like a heart.

Click click click…

Click click click…

The eight-eyed giant spiders that had escaped gathered here, constantly opening and closing their chelicerae, as if they were complaining.

And the person they were confiding in was an enormous eight-eyed giant spider that looked like an elephant;

Its bristles were no longer jet black, but instead revealed a tattered gray, indicating that it was definitely not young. There was also a layer of white film over its eyes, suggesting that it was blind.

Ferenze once said that the leader of the eight-eyed giant spiders had lost its ability to move, which must be the huge eight-eyed giant spider in front of us.

"You've come... I am Aragog..." Aragog opened and closed his chelicerae, speaking much more clearly than the other eight-eyed giant spiders.

“I am the wizard’s pet…we are not enemies…wizards and centaurs are enemies…we are friends…good friends…”

“Is that so?” Vizette raised an eyebrow, then suddenly turned around and raised her wand in one direction. “Divine Shield!”

Swish!

A sword aura slashed through the spider web, followed by a dark shadow descending from the sky.

It was another eight-eyed giant spider, even larger than Aragog, with a hideous wound torn open on its carapace, from which foul blood kept oozing out.

The enhanced perception brought by the Guardian Meditation and the Night Vision Charm can be more effective in such a relatively quiet environment.

This allowed him to discover the eight-eyed giant spider hiding in the shadows, intending to launch a sneak attack.

"It tastes better because we're friends, right?" he muttered. "Still planning a sneak attack?"

"Mosag!" Aragok's voice was filled with grief. "Kill them! Eat them!"

However, the eight-eyed giant spiders dared not move at all, and even shrank back towards Aragog. "Click... The terrifying wizard... Can't eat him... Will kill me..."

Vizette cut to the chase: "Where's the unicorn? Where's the unicorn you captured?"

“It’s not here…it was taken away by something else,” Aragok replied. “That thing…it bewitched me…I didn’t mean to…”

Vizette narrowed her eyes slightly. Compared to the other eight-eyed giant spiders, this one was probably older and therefore knew better how to communicate with humans.

Having been attacked by the eight-eyed giant spider several times, Vizette certainly wouldn't believe such a story, given the inherently cruel and dangerous creature.

He looked at Ferencze and asked, "Mr. Ferencze, is what it said true?"

“Nature will tell us the answer…” Ferenze looked worried, clearly like Vizet, he didn’t believe what the eight-eyed giant spider said.

He took out a handful of herbs from the pouch at his waist, and was about to make his next move when the eight-eyed giant spider named Mosag flipped over and suddenly spat out a strand of spider silk...

Chapter 53 The Eight-Eyed Giant Spider Passed Away Peacefully

Female giant eight-eyed spiders are much larger than males, and the advantage brought by their size is evident in Mossag.

This spider silk was extremely thick and its momentum was more terrifying than any spider silk before, like a cannonball suddenly blasting towards Ferenze.

"Armor protection!"

Vizette suddenly raised her wand, drawing a "1" in the air, and an invisible shield instantly formed, blocking Frenze's path.

Boom!

The spider silk collided with the Ironclad Curse, producing a dull, resounding boom like the tolling of a bell. Ferenze seemed dazed by the loud noise and staggered back a few steps.

Vizette snapped her fingers, and a flame burst forth on the spider silk, spreading like wildfire along the silk as it was about to enter Mossag's mouth.

Those eight-eyed giant spiders that escaped clearly recounted everything they had seen and heard;

The moment Mossag released the spider silk, he had already broken it, using it as a "cannonball" to prevent Vizette from repeating the same trick and putting himself in a predicament where he would get burned.

Due to his own condition, Aragog was unable to participate in the battle directly. Instead, he kept opening and closing his chelicerae, making a "click-clack" sound, trying to coerce and entice the cowardly eight-eyed giant spiders.

The eight-eyed giant spiders finally overcame their fear and decided to join forces with Mossag to launch an attack on Vizette.

……

"The water is as clear as a spring!"

Vizette adjusted the angle of her wand, and a thick stream of water burst forth from the tip of the wand, heading straight for the attacking eight-eyed giant spider.

The eight-eyed giant spider quickly spit out spider silk and swirled in all directions. Vizet gently flicked his wand, and the water flowed as if it were alive, making a rumbling sound, sweeping away the scattered eight-eyed giant spiders.

The water surged towards the eight-eyed giant spiders, and with a loud crash, the spiders, unable to maintain their balance in mid-air, fell to the ground.

“a” (ansuz)!

Vizette whispered the incantation, silently pumping ancient magical power from his core.

Although Mossag didn't know what the wizard in front of it was going to do, it knew that the water and the flames were both extremely dangerous things.

Driven by instinctive fear, it didn't even bother to attack; it only thought about retreating as quickly as possible to avoid getting wet in the water that was spreading around it.

Mossage's choice was undoubtedly correct. After a brief period of gathering strength, the depression suddenly darkened, as if shrouded in shadow.

A dazzling flash of lightning appeared out of nowhere, and a ball of lightning crashed down. Countless bolts of lightning, like a swarm of wildly dancing snakes, instantly attacked the eight-eyed giant spiders that were covered in water.

The eight-eyed giant spiders seemed to have gone mad, as if they were having an epileptic seizure, their bodies convulsing uncontrollably.

Only then did the rumbling thunder echo across the depression.

……

Although Mossag was not struck by lightning, its instinctive fear was even more intense, causing its body to tremble uncontrollably.

"Skillful adaptation!"

Vizet swung her wand horizontally, and the lightning-streaked water gathered together, forming cages that trapped the convulsing eight-eyed giant spider within.

With all the eight-eyed giant spiders trapped, Mossag naturally understood that the wizard before him would focus all his efforts on dealing with him.

The instinct for survival overcame fear, stopping its trembling and allowing it to continue climbing up the spider web, intending to escape as quickly and as far away as possible.
