Chapter 1179

I do think Luna's punch is actually very meaningful. Because it at least shows you that we obviously care about you too-remember? We can be friends for life if you want!

Hermione half-raised her glowing wand, spread her hands towards Ron and said:

So... hey, don't always look down on yourself, okay? Trust me, you just haven't found what you're good at yet!

Perhaps it was because Ginny had made a little joke earlier that Ron had no real friends, which made him suddenly have the impulse just now. Of course, it may be that this kind of inferiority complex has accumulated for too long, so that I can't help myself for a while.

But anyway, Hermione's words made Ron feel better.

After saying these words, Hermione paused for a while, and then said as if she wanted to put aside the trivial matters just now:

Come here and see this!

As she spoke, she raised her hand and raised the dazzling wand high above her head. And as the light cluster rose, the ceiling in the mist gradually became faintly discernible.

When Ron obeyed Hermione's words and hurried to the other party's side and looked up, he heard Hermione whisper:

Ron... but, you know, I still want to thank you. Yeah, 'if I'm dead, what am I going to like maca'? So, thank you for thinking of me and the three of us ...I'll keep an eye out.

Oh...um.

Ron nodded, because he didn't know how to answer, so he could only whisper:

You're welcome! As you said, we can be friends for life.

Hermione smiled, then pointed to the area above her head that was illuminated by the magic wand's glowing spell, and said:

There should be the 'unfinished painting' that Tonks mentioned here. Hermione said, From what she said, the original entrance to the black market seems to have been destroyed, and now the entrance here is the one in the black market. Made by fairies...

Looking up at this moment, you can see that there are actually many picture frames nailed to the ceiling.

When Hermione's wand moves, you can find that there are different oil paintings arranged irregularly on it. If there is no fog, it may be difficult to notice the color of a specific painting at a glance. content.

In terms of concealment, the effect must be very good in normal times.

However, although the current fog has brought it a new way to hide, once there are no so many paintings to confuse people, it will make it easier to find.

Hermione just walked slowly while holding her wand, letting the light pass under the oil paintings one after another, and soon saw a work that was only painted with a heavy blue and black background.

I don't know much about art, but... Hermione said, I guess this is an unfinished painting?

Yes, it's this one, Luna leaned over and looked around, hesitating a little while talking, but finally nodded with certainty, It should be right!

Obviously, the existence of the fog made her perception of magic power less keen. Even when she was looking directly at the target, she still needed to carefully screen it to be sure.

Very good, Hermione nodded, Then the question now is, how do we enter the 'black market' through this painting...well, maybe like the courtyard wall behind the Leaky Cauldron, we need to knock ?”

You can give it a try.

Both Ron and Ginny supported Hermione's statement.

However, after a while of tossing, Hermione had to admit that she had something to do with it this time - it seems that the wisdom of goblins is indeed no lower than that of humans, and maybe even higher!

Well, although their personalities and tempers are really unflattering, so that although both parties always cooperate with each other because of their reason, they always have a lot of conflicts.

Just as Hermione was thinking hard with her sore arms, Luna suddenly suggested:

Hermione, how about...can we try Gallon?

Hermione was stunned for a moment when she heard this, but soon said helplessly:

Oh, let me guess, it must be one of Maca's words that inspired you, isn't it?

Yeah! Did you notice that too?

As Luna said, she reached into her pocket and began to take out the money, and continued:

Every time Maca mentioned goblins, he always said that their heads might be filled with Galleons, so what they did would not use Galleons, or they would exchange them for Galleons. of……

Having said that, she finally took out a gold coin from her pocket, and happily held it in her hand and waved it in front of Hermione's eyes.

Hey!

At that moment, she jumped on the spot a little, and then threw the gold coin towards the painting on the ceiling.

Ding--

With a clear and pleasant sound passing by everyone's ears, everyone saw that the Galleon hit the picture frame almost straight, and then spun and bounced back, hitting Luna's head. forehead.

Oh!

Luna only felt a pain in her forehead, and then squatted down on the spot covering her head. Jin Jialong then fell down again and rolled forward, until he hit the bottom of the wall, then he turned around and fell to the ground.

Luna, are you okay?

Although she really wanted to laugh in her heart at the moment, Hermione still held back her smile, and hastily leaned over to support Luna's shoulder. Luna raised her head slowly after hearing this, tears were already shining in her eyes, but she laughed first.

It hurts... so it hurts so much when Gallon hit someone, hahaha...

Not far away, Ron looked at the red mark on Luna's forehead, and couldn't help rubbing his forehead.

Needless to say, that looks like a real pain, he said, pointing at the wall with his wand outstretched, so why not use the Levitation Charm...into the painting? I'll try try……

In the final analysis, low self-esteem is often caused by inappropriate comparison. After all kinds of training in the past few years, even Ron, who has a mediocre talent for magic spells, can easily use the technique of silent spells on the floating spell.

While he was speaking, the Galleon jumped up from the ground and flew towards the unfinished painting.

And in the next moment, everyone saw that the gold coin had actually submerged into the cold-toned painting without hindrance, and disappeared in a flash.

Oh! It goes in—

Before Ron finished his sentence, he suddenly felt a suction coming from the painting, and he hastily changed his words and exclaimed:

Is it actually charging one Galleon per person? It's so expensive!

Before he finished speaking, more than a dozen silver coins suddenly fell from the painting in front of him along with a piece of paper, and immediately after that, he was pulled into the painting and left together in a burst of space distortion.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, the dozens of silver coins were not bound by magic, and they were scattered all over the ground with a clang.

Ron first grabbed the piece of paper that fell from the air, and then looked up and looked around.

Here... it seems that it was originally a wide hall?

I managed to get out of a dangerous building, but after I got out, it turned out to be another bigger dangerous building?

Looking at this hall that was supposed to be very open, but now it is also full of signs of collapse, Ron simply didn't know what to say.

But obviously, this is the other side of the passage built by the goblin, the hall of the Dark Spirit Pavilion in the black market.

Not long after, Hermione and the others walked through the passage with their own pockets, and appeared near Ron one after another. Seeing that none of them had scattered silver coins, and each of them followed with only a piece of paper, Ron couldn't help but let out a little gasp.

Why? Didn't it give you Sickles?

We didn't pay much, Ginny reached out to catch the slip of paper, and replied casually, as long as you throw in three silver Sickles, it will send us here.

Oh, OK……

Ron bent down with a bitter face, and began to look around for the coins that were rolling everywhere—no way, the coins are endowed with a certain degree of magic resistance effect, and the Flying Curse doesn't work on them, he You have to pick them up one by one by hand.

Luna, please help! These are all your money... Well, let me owe you my three silver coins first! I came out in a hurry today, I didn't bring any money...

While Ron was digging into the money, Hermione had already finished reading the piece of paper. In fact, that's just a pass certificate, and you can use it to start the passage when you need to leave.

What is worth mentioning is that there is actually a line of eye-catching cursive characters printed on it: Welcome to the Wizards Guild of the Dark Spirit Pavilion, you will be most sincerely received by honest and reliable fairies.

So, where are the 'honest fairies'?

Looking at the messy scene in front of her, Hermione couldn't help pursing her lips.

Looking at the situation, the ruins outside may not really be a disguise... This black market seems to have suffered a terrible attack!

If there is a battle, the strength of the goblins will not be weaker than that of the wizard. Although there is a lack of outstanding individuals among them, their average ability is even much higher than that of the wizard group, not to mention that they still have many magical props from ancient times to the present.

It's just...Of course, with the goblin's temperament of wanting money and not dying, it is not a small problem whether he is willing to use it when needed.

Ron, are you done picking up? We have to go out and see what's going on.

After all, he was in a hurry right now. If it was only his own money, no matter how stingy he was, he would just grit his teeth and give up.

But when I think that this is Luna's...

As soon as Hermione turned her head, she saw Ron straighten up and said with a depressed expression:

There are still four... If you are in a hurry, why don't you come and help me find them? You know, they are so round, once they roll... Oh!
