Chapter 734 The hunter is in action

"Rhodes, you are here."

Casillas stepped forward to welcome the student whom he had once been quite optimistic about.

"What's wrong?"

Getting closer, Casillas frowned,

He could clearly feel the faint aura of weakness lingering around Rhodes and his slightly pale face.

"What happened?"

Hearing the teacher's concerned inquiry, Rhodes smiled and seemed not to care about his injuries.

He said in a relaxed tone: "I fell into the trap of several Auror wizards."

"It took some effort and I finally escaped."

Casillas took a deep look at him and seemed to know that what happened was definitely not as easy as Rhodes said.

"How is the injury now? If you need anything, just ask." Casillas said after a moment of silence.

He knew that the student in front of him was a relatively decent person.

Rhodes was not polite and spoke six or seven names, all of which were potions to repair the soul.

Ian on the side called other wizards and prepared the corresponding potions according to Rhodes' requirements.

"Rhodes, come here, tell us in detail what happened after your arrival."

Casillas pulled the student in front of him to a seat and listened.

"Actually, it's not bad. Initially, I came to Africa, and not long after that, I found the wizard and learned about what happened in the wizard world."

"Later, I traveled from Africa to London, received the message to join the New York Temple, and set off to New York, America."

Speaking of this, Rhodes looked a little bad.

"As a result, for some reason, Aurors are also monitoring the black market smuggling channels."

"When they were talking about Kama Taj, they accidentally exposed a flaw and they caught it."

"I'll ask for it later when I find an opportunity."

In the end, Rhodes said it was an understatement, but Ian and Casillas were not that easy.

"It's good to come back. You'll be safe next time." Casillas was silent for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking, and consoled him.

At the same time, a wizard came from the side, whispered a few words into Ian's ear, then turned and left.

"Rhodes, the potion just now is ready. Go over and take it to recover quickly."

"Safety comes first now."

In response, Rhodes nodded, turned around, found a wizard to lead the way, and left.

When Rhodes was far away, Ian was silent for a moment and asked Casillas seriously: "Teacher Casillas, do you know this student?"

"Can you trust me?"

"Of course." Casillas said with certainty: "I know his character very well and will not betray him."

Obviously, Casillas knew something bad might have happened.

"Okay!" Ian nodded and said in a deep voice, "I just received some bad news."

"Several wizards have passed through the New York Temple many times."

“It doesn’t feel like it’s unintentional.”

"Perhaps, the New York Temple is being targeted."

Instantly, Casillas's face turned ugly.

As soon as Rhodes arrived, a wizard passed by the New York Temple.

You know, there may not have been a wizard coming in the previous ten days and a half.

As a result, several people came in one day.

Who would believe it if they say there is no problem?

Of course, out of trust in his students, Casillas could only think on the bright side that his students were just deceived.

"Inform Carter and be on full alert!" Casillas said in a deep voice: "We are sure there is a problem, then we can't wait any longer."

Hearing this, Ian nodded.

Then I heard Casillas say quietly: "Send two more mages to help Rhodes treat his injuries."

Although it is possible that Rhodes was used as bait and deceived.

Is that something that should be guarded against or something that needs to be guarded against?

It's not like he hasn't encountered fallen mages before, and he has killed quite a few.

Ian nodded in understanding and turned to leave. Casillas also turned around and continued back to the core of the New York Temple.

Just in case, Plan B is always ready to be launched.

…………

Hunter Association, President's Office.

In the spacious and bright office, a clearly visible light curtain appeared in front of Luca and Draco.

The image of the light curtain is exactly the street where the New York Temple is located.

However, the street scene is very ordinary and does not seem to have the appearance of a New York temple.

"Draco, are you sure this is Karma Taj's stronghold?"

"Don't make a joke like the gangster did last time."

Yes, they used Rhodes as bait and deliberately let him go.

Follow Rhodes' trail and try to capture Kama Taj's stronghold or more dark wizards.

At first I was anxious, thinking that the gang where Rhodes stayed was related to the dark wizard of Kama Taj.

So I took action to arrest a few leaders, but when I asked, I found out that I had arrested the wrong ones.

Quickly clean up the memory and put it back.

After others found out about this incident, it turned into a hastily made joke.

Draco said nothing to this.

But Luka called and stopped talking.

After all, there's nothing wrong with the plan, it's just a matter of haste.

"He has been in for a while and has not come out. In addition, the information I investigated shows that a lot of workers were summoned here not long ago, and there was a lot of movement."

"It was just after the London incident."

"I have reason to suspect that there is a high probability that he is related to Kamal Taj."

"We just sent a few Aurors to keep an eye on it."

"If there is any abnormal movement, it will probably be Kama Taj's stronghold."

Draco said in a deep voice: "President, now I want to apply to ban phantom migration and space teleportation in the entire New York City."

Luca was a little hesitant. After all, New York is still very big.

Although there are mature interference arrays, the cost is not high.

But the city is too big, and overall it consumes a lot of resources.

"Otherwise, just ban the Blanc area!" Luka suggested.

"It's not impossible, but in this case, it is very likely that the people of Kama Taj know that we have determined the scope of their stronghold."

"Moreover, if the other party is really not in the Blanc area, such a big move will definitely not miss the opportunity to leave completely."

Hearing this, Luka was silent for a moment and said decisively: "Okay, we will prohibit teleportation in the entire New York space."

"You will be solely responsible for the next step. If it is confirmed, all personnel will be dispatched."

Having said this, Luka gently patted Drake on the shoulder and hinted: "Now that time is getting tighter, we must be willing to give up."

Less than half of the one-month deadline has passed.

If he fails to produce results again, he will not only have to be kicked out, but he will also be punished.

And Drake nodded naturally, indicating that he understood.

Now he and Luka can be said to be completely tied together, both prospering and losing.

I naturally know the meaning behind what I just said.

Whatever it takes, just let go and do it.

Thinking of this, Draco narrowed his eyes and turned a fierce look.

Just like a cheetah seeing its prey, its eager desire cannot be concealed.

Luca wants to be the president of the Hunter Association, and he wants to return to London.

The two not only do not conflict, but also complement each other.

…………

Streets outside the New York Temple.

Two Aurors were sitting in a cafe not far away, drinking coffee and looking at the buildings not far away through the glass.

The building is actually a newly renovated apartment.

At least that was the case with ordinary eyes, and it was also the case with the eyes of the two Aurors.

"Aaron, have you found anything?" Auror All Might on the opposite side asked softly.

The wizard Aaron neither nodded nor shook his head, but said calmly.

"The dark wizard Rhodes went in and never came out."

"Plus Muggles leave the building on their own initiative every time they pass by it."

"Clear signs of a Muggle shielding charm."

"But I can't really detect the slightest trace of magic."

“There’s no ghost here, that’s why there’s a problem.”

"Maybe, it's just the Muggle shielding spell cast by Rhodes." All Might took a sip of coffee and said lightly.

"Wait a little longer. Anyway, Rhodes is being monitored by the Fairy Eyes and can't escape."

Hearing this, Aaron nodded and agreed with the other party's statement.

"If this is really Kama Taj's stronghold, then he really has two brushes." Aaron said with a smile.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, goblin eyes, this is the goblin clan's treasure that your majesty obtained by clearing the goblin group."

"Not only can it monitor, but it can also break illusions."

"It ranks among the top 100 treasures in the Federation." Oumai said with envy.

"If Director Draco hadn't been well connected, how would we have had the chance to get in touch with him?"

In response, Aaron nodded in agreement.

While the two were chatting, suddenly...

Aaron's expression was slightly stagnant, and he lightly kicked the opponent with his right foot to indicate that something was wrong.

Ouma glanced at it pretending to be nonchalant.

A rather handsome middle-aged man walked out of the building they were paying attention to.

Moreover, the other party's direction seems to be towards his side.

"The face is unfamiliar, and there is no magic aura in his body."

"But hiding is not ruled out!"

Aaron analyzed quickly in a low voice: "I don't know if it's a Muggle. Be wary of his next move."

"If the other party is a wizard, then we may have caught a big fish this time."

Speaking of this, Aaron's tone was slightly raised, revealing the slightest excitement.

Ouma across from him nodded, picked up the coffee cup, and took a small sip to hide his emotional changes.

During this period of time, not only the Hunters Association was busy with them, but the entire Aurors and the entire Ministry of Magic were searching like crazy for traces of Karma Taj.

There is no way, His Majesty has given the order.

Then the top bosses are also constantly putting pressure.

This is also true for their immediate boss, Draco.

Basically every Auror is under a lot of pressure.

Finally, maybe there might be a result.

At this moment, I saw the rather handsome middle-aged man pushing open the door of the coffee shop.

The waiter seemed very skillful in greeting us.

"Casey, have an Americano!"

The waiter seemed to be very familiar with it. He waved to show that he understood, and then went to the front desk to prepare coffee.

After the two Aurors, Auman and Aaron, saw it, they felt slightly relieved.

However, they still did not relax their vigilance. Although the two of them looked relaxed and were talking to each other as if they were good friends, their eyes glanced at the middle-aged man from time to time.

"Let's make a bet, guess what?"

"I think it has something to do with the dark wizard of Kama Taj."

All Might bet using magic sound transmission.

"Be careful of exposure!" Aaron did not reply, but simply reminded him, and then stopped talking.

There was a trace of disdain on the corner of Ouma's mouth across from him, but he quickly returned to normal.

"Waiter, get the menu."

Oumai waved to the waiter in the distance.

After the waiter heard this, he walked over to Oumai with the menu.

"Sir, what would you like to eat?" The waiter put the menu in Ouma's hand and asked with a faint smile on his face.

"Any signature recommendations?" Ouma flipped through the menu, seemingly not seeing anything he was interested in placed on the table.

"Sir, if you want to eat some desserts, we recommend salt-baked chocolate cookies and nut pastries."

The waiter still introduced with a smile.

Ouma listened quietly, nodding from time to time, waiting for the waiter to finish introducing.

He said calmly: "Let's have three salt-baked chocolate chip cookies."

"The two of us will have one portion each, and give another portion to the gentleman." Oumai directly ordered, while pointing at the middle-aged man who had just come in not far away.

The waiter turned around and looked a little surprised.

"You know Mr. Wilson?"

Ouma nodded, and then asked, "Is he a regular customer here?"

The waiter nodded, but then shook his head.

"Mr. Wilson, he just moved here not long ago and he often comes to our coffee shop." The waiter explained.

Oumai nodded, did not continue to ask, and waved to the waiter to prepare dessert.

He watched the waiter's retreating figure, seeming to be thinking about something.

The next moment, he stood up, holding coffee, and walked towards the middle-aged man.

Aaron on the opposite side sighed, with a helpless look on his face.

Also closely followed.

"Hello, I'm Ouma, and this is my friend Aaron, Mr. Wilson." Ouma sat opposite the middle-aged man with a smile.

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man opposite glanced at the two of them.

Without saying a word, he picked up the coffee as if no one else was watching, took a sip, and closed his eyes as if to reminisce.

This made the smile on Ouma's face disappear immediately, and his face became as cold as frost.

They are Aurors, but they are violent law enforcement agencies in the federal government. Everyone who sees them usually looks respectful.

Aaron's expression on the side was as usual.

Then

clatter!

With a click, he placed his wand on the table, as if to indicate their identities.

Throughout the federation, wizards are respected.

It is common knowledge that only wizards can be equipped with wands.

Taking out the magic wand is the simplest way to remind the other person of his identity.

Let the other person distinguish between superiority and inferiority.

At the same time, Oumai on the side watched closely the change in expression of the man opposite.

They are Aurors, the largest wizarding law enforcement agency in the Federation.

Only others have always avoided them, and they have never avoided others.

With his character, if he suspected that the other party was a dark wizard, no matter whether it was true or not, he would be arrested and interrogated first.

Now, after revealing his identity as a wizard, it depends on the performance of the other party.

Then

"You Aurors are really stubborn!"
