Chapter 438 People in Murals and the World of Murals

Andy walked to an iron door and threw the light ball of the fluorescent spell through the small window.

The room was suddenly illuminated by a ball of light.

"It is indeed a prison cell..."

Andy was a little strange, "If it's just a prison cell, why is it blocked here?"

Point the wand at the lock of the iron door, and with a soft click, the iron door opens immediately.

Andy opened the iron door and walked in.

This is a very ordinary cell, with nothing on the surrounding walls except a few chains.

After Andy looked around the room, he walked out of the cell with a happy expression and re-locked the iron door.

Walking along the corridor to the end, Andy finally found a different room - the room at the end of the corridor.

squeak——

Opening the iron door, Andy threw the light ball of the fluorescent spell in.

"It is indeed a laboratory!"

As the room was illuminated, Andy could see clearly the furnishings and layout inside.

The room is very large, at least more than 200 square meters.

Some of the things inside must have been moved, but some were left behind.

There were five rectangular iron beds placed in the middle of the room, and there were some shackles on the iron beds. Judging from the position of these cuffs, a person's limbs and neck can probably be fixed on them.

There is a rectangular wooden table at the end of the room, but there is nothing on it.

Andy guessed that Extis would be brewing potions, recording notes, or doing some other magic experiments on that wooden table.

There are various cabinets around the room, but there is nothing in the cabinet except some empty bottles.

"That's all?" Andy frowned slightly.

If these were the only things in the basement, why did the Ministry seal it off instead of putting it to good use?

"Did I overlook something?" Andy walked around the room several times, but still found nothing.

Azkaban has been a prison for wizards for hundreds of years. When the Ministry of Magic renovated the place, they should have moved everything that could be moved.

But they sealed the basement!

"This means there must be secrets in the basement."

"It's just that these secrets cannot be moved away, but they cannot be destroyed either. In order to hide these secrets, the Ministry of Magic sealed the basement."

"Is it a secret room?"

Andy carefully checked the cabinets around the room.

If there is a secret room here, then the location of the secret room is most likely behind a cabinet.

"The trace appears!"

Andy chanted the spell and turned his wand in a circle.

A pale golden magical light shone down, and a mess of footprints suddenly appeared on the ground.

Among these chaotic footprints, some walked towards the right side of the room in an orderly manner, and then disappeared behind the cabinet on the right.

Andy came to the cabinet on the right side of the room and put his wand against the cabinet to examine it carefully.

"Thank you Ministry of Magic!"

Because the Ministry of Magic has already explored this place, the original defensive magic here has been completely destroyed by the Ministry of Magic - there is indeed a secret room behind the cabinet, but opening it is very simple.

"Open!"

Andy pointed lightly with the wand, and the cabinets immediately began to move toward both sides. The bricks and stones on the wall seemed to come alive, spreading toward both sides piece by piece.

When everything calmed down, a passage more than three meters high appeared on the wall in front of Andy.

Andy threw the light ball of the fluorescent spell into it.

At the end of the passage is a secret room.

Unlike the laboratory outside, the secret room was empty and empty, but there were a large number of murals painted on the walls and roof of the secret room.

"mural?"

Andy immediately realized that the reason why the Ministry of Magic blocked this place might be because of these murals.

"Who's coming in?"

"Turn out your lights or we'll eat you!"

"Did you hear that? I'm talking about you!"

The light ball of the fluorescent spell immediately blew these murals alive.

The 'people' on the mural had obviously not seen the light of day for a long time. When Andy saw the 'people' on the mural, they all covered their eyes and scolded Andy.

Andy immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

If it were just a mural, there would be nothing to fear.

Andy was about to go in and visit these murals, and have a good chat with the 'people' in the murals to see if he could figure out the secret of Extis.

But when Andy reached the end of the passage and was about to enter the secret room, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Andy stopped immediately!

If a person who has been in darkness all year round is suddenly stimulated by a bright light, this situation will indeed occur.

The same goes for the ‘people’ in the painting!

The paintings in the magical world can move, and the characters in the paintings can even travel to other paintings. They have thoughts, hobbies, and normal schedules.

If you use the light of the fluorescent curse to disturb the sleep of the 'people' in the portrait during a night walk at Hogwarts, they will also scold you.

But this is just an appearance!

From a certain perspective, these paintings are two-dimensional worlds created by wizards - from the perspective of the 'people' in the paintings, there is no difference between the place where they live and the real world.

If there is a sun, light, or flame in a painting, then the characters in the painting can feel the light.

And it's morning, not night for 'sleeping'.

So it stands to reason that the 'people' in the murals should go to places with light... They should not be afraid of the glare of the light.

Andy stood at the entrance and took a careful look at the mural in the secret room.

After all, it is a mural left by a dark wizard. The style of the mural looks a bit cruel - Axtis drew his experimental process.

But even so, there is light in the mural!

There are torches, oil lamps and the like in many murals. Even in the wild at night, the stars and moon in the sky look very bright.

So... they shouldn't be stung in the eyes by the glowing ball of light!

Andy stopped when he reached the door, and the character in the mural spoke again.

"I haven't seen anyone outside for a long time. Who are you?"

"Are you invisible? Brother, come over and say hello to us, we are almost bored to death."

"Show yourself and I can tell you some secrets."

"Yes, come in and talk to us! We know many secrets and can tell you."

Since Andy used the Disillusionment Charm, the 'people' in the mural could only see the light of the fluorescent spell, but could not see who came in.

Andy was already on guard.

At first, the ‘people’ in these murals wanted to pretend they were normal. But now... their intention to lure Andy in is already obvious.

"If you just shut up from the beginning, maybe the effect would be better." Andy said lightly.
