Chapter 13 Not every magic school is Hogwarts (page 1)

Snapped!

The transparent string was tightly tied around Les's neck, but Les didn't even blink, because an extremely thin but extremely strong mini-shield appeared on his neck, supporting him. The rope was tied up.

At the same time as the wizard hiding in the dark took action, the other four wizards each took out their wands and attacked Lupet.

In their plan, Rice would definitely be killed instantly by the hidden boss, and all he had to do was deal with Lupet. But it happened that something went wrong with the strongest member of the gang, and their previously invincible tactics failed, which also led to their defeat.

Facing the enemy's attack, Lupet, who was experienced in combat, jumped to the side astutely and avoided all the incoming magic spells.

Rupert, who had dodged the attack, pulled out her new wand, but before she could fight back, a blinding flash of light accompanied by a loud explosion exploded in the dead end. The four people on the opposite side rolled their eyes and all fainted. .

After easily knocking out the four people, Les shook his wand again, and a stream of black smoke spurted out from the tip of the wand and drifted towards the corner of the alley.

"Collapse!"

A figure wrapped in a black robe instantly appeared from under the wall, raised his hand and cast a stun spell on Les. After casting the stun spell, he didn't even look at the impact of the spell, and directly began to imagine the place where he wanted to apparate in his mind.

In the brief confrontation just now, he had realized the strength of his opponent. Now he had no intention of continuing to fight with Les and the others. He just wanted to escape from this ghost place.

The teleportation spell Apparition requires you to focus on conceiving the destination in your mind, and then you can teleport to the place you want in your mind. This process is very short, and a skilled wizard doesn't even need a second.

'Give me a second, just one second! As long as he can reach that place, the black-robed wizard roared hysterically in his heart. Fortunately, the Apparition was performed very smoothly this time. He could feel strong squeezing from all directions, and the scene in front of him gradually dimmed.

The black-robed wizard knew that his Apparition was successful, and his inner uneasiness began to subside little by little...

Suddenly, a different feeling appeared. The surrounding air seemed to have solidified, "locking" himself in mid-air.

His Apparition failed!

The black-robed wizard raised his head at a loss, and then met the young man's deep, cold eyes. The young man looked at him without any emotion in his eyes, just like a tourist looking at a fish stranded on the beach. generally.

The wizard couldn't help but shuddered, and his intuition told him that he was finished this time.

After casting the anti-Apparition spell, Les slowly put down his wand and patiently untied the string around his neck.

The black mist condensed and formed little by little as it flew toward the black-robed wizard, turning from a cloud of mist into a piece of black gauze. By the time it flew in front of the wizard, it had become as tight as a steel needle.

Soon, the black mist bound him tightly, making him unable to move.

Lupet ran to where he had been hiding and found a transparent cloak. The cloak is transparent and almost blends into the ground. It can't be noticed without bending down and taking a closer look.

"This guy actually has an invisibility cloak!" Lupet felt incredible. Why do these down-and-out wandering wizards have such expensive things as invisibility cloaks? How can they afford it?

"Just keep it."

For wizards who can use the Disillusionment Charm, things like invisibility cloaks are very useless, and only half-empty guys like Lupet will regard them as treasures. Therefore, Les was not interested in the invisibility cloak. He was more curious about the condition of the string.

After studying the rope in his hand, Rice discovered that it was a delicate prop with a steel wire as its inner core and an invisible beast's hair wrapped on the outside.

After seeing this, Les couldn't help but applaud this wonderful idea in his heart.

The hair of invisible beasts is generally used by wizards to weave invisibility cloaks. This is the first time that Les has seen the operation of wrapping steel wires. It can be said that it is very creative. It is indeed miraculous when used for sneak attacks. If it weren't for the magic power fluctuations attached to the rope, Rice might not be able to detect it. For an ordinary wizard, there is a high probability of being attacked by a sneak attack.

After taking away the most valuable magic items, Lupet searched the bodies of the four unconscious people. However, she was greatly disappointed with the results of this battle. The four of them couldn't even collect a single gold Galleon, and it seemed that they spent all their money to buy invisibility cloaks.

Of course, not all was lost. The wands on the four of them could also be sold for a few bucks, so Lupett naturally accepted them with a smile.

"Wizards after a thousand years are really too weak." Les walked up to the black-robed wizard unhurriedly, stretched out his hand and pinched his cheek.

In his opinion, there was no need to interrogate the remaining four soldiers. The core leader of this group was only the guy in front of him, and all the intelligence was focused on him.

After hearing what Rice said, the black-robed wizard was startled at first, and then realized: How can anyone live for a thousand years? Nico Flamel, the oldest wizard in the magical world, only lived for more than six hundred years. The guy in front of him was just bluffing and talking nonsense.

However, even if the other party is talking nonsense, it does not prevent him from having the upper hand, so the black-robed wizard thought for a moment and decided to surrender for the time being.

"I believe this is just a misunderstanding..." The black-robed wizard's voice was muffled because his face was pinched.

"Shh-" Les had no desire to talk to him. He forced the other person to look into his eyes until the other person's eyes became distracted.

Les is proficient in Legilimency. Although his current body is a bit weak, many magic spells cannot be used at full strength, but Legilimency, a magic that relies on the strength of the soul, has not been greatly restricted. He still Can easily read the memories of a controlled wizard.

"Who ordered you to do such a thing?"

"Anthony MacMillan, he offered us forty galleons to teach us a lesson."

"If you succeed in capturing Lupet and I, what will you do to us?"

"Play with it for a while, and then get rid of you - John said you have a lot of money with you, we can divide the money, and then pass the pot to Anthony. Anyway, he asked us to teach you a lesson." Black Robe The wizard confessed his feelings frankly, which made Lupet resentful and kicked him several times.

During the questioning and answering, Rice had already made it clear about the intentions and origins of this group of people: McMillan hired thugs to attack people, and the hired thugs became interested in making money, and wanted to simply use the McMillan family's tiger skin to kill people and rob them of money. .

The situation is not complicated.

"Are you a student of Hogwarts?" After struggling for two seconds, Rice asked a question that he was very concerned about. He was afraid that the other party would say that he was a student of Slytherin House.

"No, it was the magic taught to me by the monks of the Secret Order."

"The Secret Order?"

It was the name of a magical organization that Les had never heard of. There are many Muggle organizations with this name, but Les thinks that it is most likely just the same name as what the black-robed wizard said.

"Have you heard of it?" Les looked at Lupet and asked her.

Lupet frowned and said with some uncertainty: "It seems to be a magic organization active in Europe that teaches magic to those young wizards who have not learned. I have met a wizard from Montenegro before. He is A member of the Secret Order—I just don’t know if it’s the Secret Order he’s talking about.”
