Even with the Basilisk's high magic resistance, it could not withstand being relentlessly beaten around without being able to mount an effective counterattack. In the end, it could only lie in the Chamber of Secrets with its eyes wide open, glaring miserably in death, becoming a pile of magical materials in Li Feng's eyes.
Looking at the motionless Basilisk, Li Feng scratched his head and asked, "You two, should we leave now, or roast the Basilisk's corpse before we go?"
Snape glanced at Li Feng and sneered. "Don't you know that snakes can remain alive for a while even after their heads are cut off? McGonagall and I aren't afraid of making eye contact with the Basilisk if we leave now, but can you handle it?"
It could still live after its head was cut off? Did he think snakes were flies or cockroaches, able to keep mating and reproducing on instinct even without their heads? Speechless, Li Feng wanted to tell Snape that it was not a matter of whether it was alive or not. Snake nerves simply worked that way. Even if their heads were smashed apart, their bodies could still react naturally when stimulated from outside.
"What are we doing now? Continuing to admire the Basilisk's alluring corpse?" Li Feng spread his hands and curled his lip. "I don't have that hobby."
McGonagall, who was comforting Ginny nearby, glanced at the Basilisk and said, "Once the magic in its eyes has faded, we can leave the Mirror Dimension."
Seeing that Li Feng did not understand how to tell whether the Basilisk's eyes had lost their magic, McGonagall added, "Look at the sheen in its eyes. Once the snake pupils grow dim and lose their luster, it means they have lost their petrifying effect on you and Ginny.
