Just as it takes many means to support justice, walking around evil is certainly not just a one-on-one instigation.

After dismissing the deception of the Lady Higgs in front of her, Maca let her legs go limp and sat down in the chair behind the potions table, shaking her head slightly.

“…… She wasn't lying, she had bought the parchment from the black market, and had no contact with Helmpo himself. ”

When Sirius on the side heard this, he immediately frowned and said:

"Do you want to check it out on the black market?"

If you continue to follow this clue, supplemented by the spell of tracing the source, you may be able to find the trace of Helbo, who has always been hidden recently.

But when Maca heard Sirius's words, he only shook his head again.

"No," he said, "as long as it is clear to us that Helmo has not given up on the wizarding world of England yet, it will be a good bonus for us." But if we want to follow this path to find out the whereabouts of Helbo, then we must underestimate that cunning fellow a little too much. ”

As she spoke, Maca glanced at Ms. Higgs at the back of the table, and continued:

"This Miss Higgs is clearly different from the owner of the Hanged Man's Tavern before. If there is an 'indirect' relationship between Miss Higgs and Helmao, then the tavernkeeper Ted and Helmpo are ...... Perhaps there is a more 'direct' connection. ”

"And if I'm right, I'm afraid Helmpo is going to use this subtle way this time...... Little by little, the British wizarding world has been infected and corroded. ”

Hindered by Maca's repeated obstructions, it is not difficult to understand why Helbo would choose this more roundabout method. What's more, compared to a straight stabbing knife, it is obvious that it is a more difficult invasion method to unknowingly "poison" the entire United Kingdom like this.

Just like Ms. Higgs in front of the four of them at this moment, in the whole process of seducing her to fall, Helbo did not even need to pay attention to herself, she herself would voluntarily fall into the bottomless abyss in the temptation of power.

"Speaking of which......" Lu Pingping looked at the parchment solemnly, and couldn't help but ask, "Maka, what will happen if she finally completes the magic ritual on it?" ”

Gaining power through brutal killing is undoubtedly a very evil form of black magic. And often in this kind of dark magic ritual, the dark wizard will also get a terrifying growth to match the huge effort.

"It will allow them to derive higher spiritual power from the souls of their victims," Maka said, "which means that if the ritual is successful, then Lady Higgs will be able to unleash more powerful spells than ever before—especially those dark magic." ”

At this point, he paused slightly, but then pouted and added:

"Of course, that has to wait until she really succeeds, and the specific odds of success ......"

Maca didn't need to continue, but gently shook the parchment in her hand a few times with the corner of her mouth, and the meaning was almost self-evident.

And if they fail, not only will the Dark Wizard's efforts be rewarded, but they will further lose more things - such as their own souls and lives.

Obviously, whether they succeed or fail, the "demon" behind them will be the ultimate beneficiary.

At the end, Maca waved his hand and said:

"So, let's not work on this Higgs lady and let Scrimgeour send someone to take over! The tavernkeeper should have been more careful than her...... After the last temptation, I felt that with that person's mind and strength, Helbo should pay more attention to him. ”

In the slightly sluggish expression of Miss Higgs, Marka and the others were talking to themselves, and at that moment, the door to the living room behind the former was suddenly opened from the other side.

"Mr. McLean."

It's still the same figure in a trench coat and a wide-brimmed hat, and it's still the same voice that is so hoarse that it makes it difficult to distinguish the gender. Emerging from behind that door was apparently the trench-clad wizard who had come with him from Hogwarts Castle.

"Aside from the elves working here and a half-blood elf minion, there's no one else in this Potions Workshop. Also, I couldn't find anything more special than this one. ”

If you want to say why she didn't appear here with Maca and the others just now, it turns out that long before Maca chose to "visit" through the back door openly, she had already sneaked into the workshop and launched a covert search.

"Huh? Parchment again? ”

Maca reached out and took the paper she handed over, looked down at it casually, and then nodded knowingly.

As you can see, this is actually a letter, and it is also an unfinished letter. As far as these contents of the letter paper are concerned, Maca has already noticed it when she was reciting Higgs just now.

"Since the letter hasn't been sent yet, it means that the other party doesn't know what Miss Higgs is trying to convey," he said, "but since Higgs wants to share the dark magic ritual, it means that this person must also be the kind of wizard who is interested in dark arts...... Give this to Scrimgeour as well! I'm sure he'll know what to do. ”

Handing the letter into Sirius's hand again, Maca said:

"That's the end of the matter, the control magic I put on her should last another half hour or so, enough for you to send someone to the Ministry of Magic and imprisoned. As for the Hanged Man's Tavern, remember not to cut off the manpower of surveillance. ”

With that, he waved at the trench-robed wizard, turned and walked out the door.

……

In fact, just minutes after Maca left Hogwarts, a group of slightly embarrassed-looking wizarding apparitions appeared outside the school gates, and were almost spotted by the Muggles who were on the hillside outside.

“…… Professor McGonagall, is McLean in school now? ”

After taking the group into the school gate, they didn't even wait to get to the castle, and asked about Maca's whereabouts directly on the lawn of the vestibule.

On the other side, McGonagall looked at each other with surprise on her face, and couldn't help but say with a little worry:

"Mr. Akinbad, your arms and eyes ......"

"It's okay, it's just that I broke my left hand and was blind in one eyeball, it's good to be alive!"

Yes, the current visitor to Hogwarts is none other than the president of the International Confederation of Wizards who has not been heard from for a long time - the old African wizard Babajid Akinbad.

And, of course, the other wizards of the Federation who came with him.

At this moment, not only was Akinbad's sleeve empty, his left eye covered with a rock-like white, but even the rest of his companions were mostly suffering minor or serious injuries.

As far as the last news from Maca about them is known, they have gathered their men to go to the African School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to investigate the incident of the basilisk in Ouagado.

"What the hell is going on?" Professor McGonagall frowned, "This is all done by the basilisk?" ”

When Akinbad heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile.

"So to speak!" He sighed, "Of course, I was made to this place because of my battle with the basilisk—if it weren't for the old headmaster's timely rescue of me, I probably wouldn't have been able to come back this time." But the others ......"

As he spoke, he quickly waved his hand and said:

"Forget it, let's not talk about that. Professor McGonagall, if McLean is here, please help me inform him - just say that the basilisk has left Africa, and no one can say for sure if he will come to your British wizarding world. ”

"Listen, that basilisk is extraordinary, much more powerful than the ancient texts say, and it doesn't have the weakness of being afraid of the crowing of a rooster! If you find it in the UK......"

Speaking of this, Arkinbad couldn't help but smile apologetically again:

"Seriously, I'd love it to come to the British wizarding world right now - at least there's his Macklee here, and even if it did, it wouldn't make Hogwarts a second Vagado!"

Hearing Akinbad say this, McGonagall couldn't help but say solemnly:

"Sir, your alma mater...... What's going on now? ”

Akinbad shook his head slightly, and the only remaining eye suddenly revealed a sadness.

"The student casualty rate is over forty percent - Vagado is no longer the largest of all magic schools."

However, the exigencies of the situation and his status as president of the Federation did not allow him to stay longer. After explaining the general situation and the possibility of danger one by one, he waved his backhand and began to assign the wizards of the Federation who came with him on the spot.

It seems that he chose to come to Hogwarts directly from Vagado, Africa, to provide the first warning, and he has not even returned to the federation headquarters.

And now, they are going to split up and go to the ministries of magic to issue warnings.

Professor McGonagall watched from the sidelines, thinking for a moment, and it didn't take long to understand why Arkinbad had come to Hogwarts in the first place. I'm afraid he thought that if Maca had known about this first, he might have been able to rush to the aid of the basilisk when it appeared?

Although, it is still unknown whether Maca will take the time to leave the British wizarding world at that time.

Moments later, after Professor McGonagall sent Arkinbad and the others to the woods outside the school gate, with the space distortion again and again, the wizards of the Federation went to the magical world of various countries with the help of the portkey.

And when Akinbad also disappeared into the forest in a twist, McGonagall looked back at a certain direction on the lakeside, and sighed heartily:

"Albus, though I have always admired your wisdom, this time ...... Shouldn't you choose to leave at that time? ”
