It was a stone slab, a huge round stone slab.

As Maca cast a spell to dig through the ground, until the stone slab buried deep in the ground was gradually exposed to his vision, the few symbolic notches on it that were still stained with sand and mud made his face change slightly.

"Retreat!"

With a backhand pull on the trench-robed wizard who was following him, he suddenly flew backwards quickly.

And it was at the moment when he quickly made his judgment that the stone slab under the pit suddenly burst into a burst of gray magical brilliance, rushing out of the bottom of the pit and diffusing outward.

Maca is so fast that even Helbo can't react. It's a pity that no matter how fast he is, he can't be too fast.

He only had time for a flash of lightning, and a layer of protection was placed around him, and in the blink of an eye, he and the trench-robed wizard were swallowed up by those surging lights.

After a while, when the gray light retracted, the stone slab at the bottom of the pit and the two large living people had disappeared in unison in the sudden change just now.

"Maca? Hey! ”

Seeing from afar that the brilliance was extinguished, and the two people who were in it were taken away in an instant, Lupin didn't care whether it was dangerous or not, and hurriedly flew over to look left and right.

Unfortunately, there was nothing but the deep hole in the middle of the small park in the street.

"I didn't say there was this beforehand!"

Although he didn't think that the light just now was deadly, the disappearance of Maca was a fact. Lupin now wondered where he and the mysterious wizard had been taken by that light?

……

"Don't do it!"

Just as Lupin was distressed by the disappearance of the two, on the other side, Maca suddenly calmly stopped the trench-clad wizard who had stretched out his wand.

In fact, as soon as the gray light receded, he and the trench-clad wizard immediately discovered the first anomaly in their environment.

It can be seen that the place where the two of them are located does not seem to have changed at all.

When I look up slightly, the sky wall, flowing clouds, and the sun ...... There are all kinds of buildings near and far, including this little park, where everything is still where it should be;

When I looked down again, the deep pit in front of me still existed, but the round stone slab at the bottom of the pit was gone.

If there's one thing that's different from before, it's the colors!

To put it bluntly, it is actually very simple, they both found that the whole world seemed to have been washed and faded, and there was no other color except black, white and gray. It's like being trapped in an old photograph.

After a moment's thought, Maca suddenly saw a gray shadow in the distance approaching this way—it looked like a person, but the figure twisted irregularly, resembling a terrifying monster barely humanoid.

As soon as the figure flew rapidly from the sky, the alert trench-clad wizard was about to cast a spell, but Maca reached out and pressed his wand.

And the trench wizard didn't have much dissatisfaction after being stopped by Maca. Although the eyes hidden under the brim of the hat were still fixed on the monster in front of them, the wand in his hand still hung silently.

Maca didn't say much, he just stared at the twisted gray shadow for a moment before he looked at the strange scene around him and sighed slightly.

"I didn't expect this guy Helbo, he's quite cautious!" He muttered, "I only designed to trap him once, and he trapped me here in a similar way......

Shaking it slightly, Maca said again:

"But speaking of which, this may be one of his strengths."

"What do you mean?"

Hearing this, the windbreaker wizard on the side asked in a hoarse voice while being wary of the gray shadow monster.

Maca then raised her right hand and gestured to the black and white world around her.

"Mirror world," he said, "a lot of Helbo's magical research revolves around a mirror, so ...... How so? The 'surprise' he left me always felt a little unexpected. ”

"Ahem, ahem...... So what is this? ”

Seeing that the other party pointed to the gray shadow monster that was wandering nearby, Maca shrugged her shoulders and said:

"It's Lupin."

As he spoke, he cautiously stepped forward, reaching out to try to pat the gray shadow on the shoulder. And as expected, his hand passed through it with ease.

"There is no entity, but you can still feel Lupin's magic fluctuations, which means...... This mirrored world is on a 'spiritual' level. So, if you did cast a spell on it just now, Lupin would have to—"

Before she finished speaking, Maca seemed to think of something bad, and her eyebrows suddenly frowned.

"I thought this was a trap set by Helbo to seduce me, but I didn't expect that I was in the right place this time?"

"Ahem...... Didn't you say, this is a mirror world? The trench-clad wizard immediately asked, "Got the right place?" Are you serious? ”

Hearing the confusion in the trench-coat wizard's tone, Maca finally couldn't help but turn around and take a good look at the other party.

"You're asking me?" He said with a puzzled expression, "I said, do you really not know, or are you still pretending to be confused?" What the hell are you here for......

As she spoke, Maca finally waved her hand and said:

"Forget it, you didn't ask me what I said just now - just do what you have to do!"

With that, he simply closed his mouth, turned around and walked out of the park.

The trench-robed wizard looked at him halfway through and then held back his words, as if he also felt a little awkward. But after seeing him stop and be stunned for a while, he nodded silently, and then chose another direction and left.

……

After deciding to separate herself from the trench-clad wizard, Maca sensed the wandering magic in the space around her, and walked slowly towards the center of London in a vague direction of magic.

Seriously, he really wanted to ask the trench coat wizard to find out, but he also knew that it was better not to communicate with that person too much.

If he really asks something, he will definitely gain a lot, but I am afraid that it will also lead to more and worse troubles.

Of course, the matter of the trench coat wizard is put aside for the time being, and now Maca is dealing with the problem of this so-called "mirror world".

At first, he just wanted to get out of trouble. But just now, after realizing that this may not be a trap, the idea of getting out of this predicament has to stand on the back foot.

In fact, as he thought that the magic he had cast here could hurt Lupin, a certain terrifying intent that Helpo had in his mind came to mind.

Obviously, as long as that guy makes a move in this mirror world, even if the scope is limited to the part of the city of London, the damage he can cause will be extremely terrifying!

As for why that guy hasn't done it yet...... It seems that this can only be said by himself.

After walking around the black and white city for a while, Maca gradually noticed that the flow of magic in the air was faintly accelerating. At this moment, Maca found herself in the inner city of London.

Is there anything unusual here? What causes the accelerated flow of free magic?

On the streets, gray shadows come and go, and according to the previous example of Lupin, it can be understood that these are the magical outlines of people "reflected" in this mirror space.

Muggles are also magical, but they don't have the magic in them that they do.

Maca didn't stay on the street for long, and after observing the gray shadows for a moment, he stepped on the magic book and flew down the street towards the center of the city.

"Huh?"

It didn't take long, probably more than ten minutes, to pass quietly.

Maca hung above the center of London, and beneath him was Big Ben, which he had seen many times. But even here, he still didn't find anything of note.

Yes, the flow of magic around me was already a bit restless here, but otherwise everything was normal.

Of course, this weird world of black, white and gray alone cannot be called "normal".

Looking down at the crowded traffic below, and the gray figures inside and outside the car, even Maca, who had always been calm, couldn't help but smack her tongue slightly.

It's like a child who has been looking for a building block toy for a long time and finally finds its location, but when he picks it up and looks closely, he finds that he just finds an empty building block box.

This feeling of being just a little bit away and finally having failed in hope is really uncomfortable!

"Could it be that this is really just a trap set against me?"

If you just want to trap Maca and make him accidentally hurt the Muggles and wizards in the outside world, this is also a possibility! But what is the success rate of it......

Helbo is not a fool who would do such a thing that does not go up or down, Maca still believes this.

"Then let's look again!"

According to the clues given by the flow of magic, if there is a real problem with this space, it is probably somewhere in the center of the city.

Suddenly, he controlled the magic book and let himself slowly descend to the sidewalk on the side of the street.

Letting the flow of gray shadows pass through her, Maca didn't care, turned and walked in one direction.

It's useless to be anxious at the moment, so let's calm down and take a good look!

At the same time, the trench coat wizard on the other side was actually doing something similar to Maka.

If you let Maca know, you probably should be confused because the other party's behavior is completely different from what she imagined.

What the hell is this guy here for?
