Chapter 1184: Sacrifice Iron Armor Curse
In fact, the seemingly empty and noisy underground black market is actually not as peaceful as the four Hermione seemed on the surface.
The black market has always been a black market, and in these turbulent times, it is clear that a certain segment of the wizarding world will need it even more.
For example, when Maca released the prisoners of Azkaban in order to act, the guys who sneaked away took advantage of the chaos.
Yes, after Maca left with Bellatrix and the rest of the Death Eaters, there were always some shrewd enough prisoners who took advantage of the chaos of the Dementors to escape across the sea.
And these people would never have been able to settle in a newly built settlement under the plans of the Ministry of Magic. Even if the black market was severely disturbed by Helpo, they could only continue to hide there and live a life of resignation.
Of course, in addition to the prisoners of Azkaban, there are many more "gray wizards" in the black market who rely on lawlessness to survive all year round. Because they have always been very cautious, there is really nothing about the case that would make them afraid.
But once they live a life with a lot of money, it is obviously impossible for them to return to a life that is stable but tight on their budgets.
So, don't look at Maca asking the Ministry of Magic to count and collect a large number of black market populations to the outside world, and even enough to build two towns made up of pure wizards. However, in the black market, there are still many people who stay, hiding in the shadows and waiting for this huge turmoil to gradually subside.
However, these wizards who had never left for various reasons almost didn't expect that Helbo was not enough once, and this time it would come a second time!
When the fog gradually spreads in this underground black market and completely envelops the place, many people secretly curse the idea of fleeing abroad.
It's a pity that the vast majority of people didn't have time to take action, but the Werther family suddenly stood up. The old head of this ancient wizarding family personally stepped forward and included the remaining idle wizards in the black market under the name of Helbo.
According to the old owner, Glu Witt, it was Helmo who took the initiative to reconnect with him and asked him to help him with his unfinished task last time - to take down the entire underground black market.
It must be said that the name of the Werther family is indeed not to be underestimated, not to mention the even worse name of Helmo is embellished behind. Old Gru didn't spend too much effort, and in just one night, he took most of the remaining power groups in the black market under his command.
Obviously, the reason why the goblins of the Dark Spirit Pavilion hid in the vault was actually because they didn't want to obey the orders of the Werther family.
However, no one knows what the Werther family, especially the old master Gru Werther, thinks in his heart, for the time being.
"Divide one or two more cars out, and let Norman go over there!"
In the main hall of the Werther family's mansion, the old master Gru sat at the innermost end of the long table, and coldly gave an order that made everyone in the family a little puzzled.
"Don't ask anything," said old Gru, with a blank face, "just do as I say." β
β¦β¦
When this underground black market gradually began to become turbulent again, Hermione and the others, who were on the run, could only be regarded as a small accident.
But no matter what, because Luna threw something backwards just now, it seemed that they had delayed each other for a while, and they finally distanced themselves from the people chasing behind them.
"But it can be heard that the other party did not stop chasing because of the accident, even if the target of the chase has already left the field of vision, they still did not give up."
"They split up and chased after each other!" Hermione listened intently, then whispered, "Get ready!" The other party must be much more familiar with the terrain than we are, and may want to outflank us...... However, this may also be a good opportunity for us to fight back! β
If she didn't get into the fight, Hermione didn't want to fight at all. But if she really can't help it, she obviously won't stand still.
The other three, including Luna, all subconsciously grabbed the Demonic Stone Tablet that they had just taken out and held in their left hands after hearing her say this.
Although only four people will definitely not be able to exert the power of dozens of people at the beginning, but in this case, it must be enough.
"Watch out for footsteps on both sidesβ"
As she passed another fork in the road, Hermione led the three of them as fast as she could. And sure enough, at the moment when they hurried by, the left and right spells suddenly collided together, bursting into a burst of dazzling brilliance.
"It's supposed to be a full-body restraint charm," Hermione said, glancing back, "They want to capture us alive." β
And at this moment, Ron, who was running a few steps ahead, suddenly asked quickly:
"Hermione, there's the alleyway ahead, which way is it going?"
"Go straight!"
At the moment, the other party is acting separately, and once they turn the corner, there is a good chance that they will bump into one of them. If she had no choice but to do so, she felt it was better to avoid it.
In a short time, the four of Hermione rushed from the alley to the street outside.
"Watch out for people on both sides!"
In the alleys on the left and right, two figures also ran out, and this just showed that Hermione's guess was correct.
"Luna, you and Ginny keep an eye on the right; Ron, let's keep our eyes on the left-"
Even if the time to cross this street must be short, after all, the road surface is not much wider. But the other party had shot in the narrow alley before, and now it is obvious that he will not miss a better opportunity.
Sure enough, as soon as Hermione finished speaking, two spells immediately burst in.
"Armor Protection...... Hermione, Disarm Charm! β
Ron was talking, only to see that after he put an iron armor spell on himself, he actually took the initiative to meet the other party's spell. Hermione was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood Ron's thoughts.
He was trying to take advantage of the two of them to give Hermione a chance to fight back.
To be honest, Hermione herself did not approve of this dangerous tactic, after all, the strength of the opponent's spell is difficult to estimate, and God knows if Ron's iron armor spell can be stopped?
But perhaps it was the other party's intention to capture him alive, so Hermione hurriedly obeyed Ron's wishes.
Immediately after, as Ron took a step slower and narrowly blocked the spell at Hermione's side. Hermione's silent disarming spell also passed through the exploding light particles, and the red light suddenly shot towards the other side.
Ron's Iron Armor Spell worked, and although he stumbled a few steps from the impact, he didn't take any damage. Unfortunately, Hermione's disarming spell was dodged by the opponent by rolling forward.
Before they could sigh, Ginny and Luna on the same side of Ginny and Luna went into the next alley in front of them again.
"At least slow that guy down a few steps!"
Ron said this, but in exchange for Hermione's "daily glare" today.
"If your iron armor spell can't stop it, it's not that people are a few steps slower, but that you drag us down and have to stay and fight!" Hermione said angrily, "And you can only lie on the ground and stare dryly!" β
"Oh! Didn't I block it! Ron grinned and whispered, "Besides, I've seen those two bondage spells colliding together, and I'm confident I can block them." β
"Don't talk back!" Hermione rolled her eyes, "Run!" Go straight aheadβ"
β¦β¦
Just as Hermione and the others were being driven around the black market, Maca stopped a little in front of the ruins of the gallery just outside the entrance to the Dark Pavilion.
Although Luna did not notice anything unusual in the ruins, he did notice the scattered fluctuations of mana remaining in the ruins.
He could tell that what blew up the gallery like this seemed to be the magic of the goblins.
"Disguise?"
After a cursory observation, he came to the same conclusion as Hermione.
Of course, just standing on the outside and looking at it obviously doesn't lead to more conclusions. After a casual guess, he lifted his leg and walked towards the crumbling-looking interior of the house.
It didn't take long for Maca to arrive at the place that had puzzled Ron before. Looking at the completely blocked corridor in front of him, he closed his eyes slightly and sensed it, and soon noticed that a certain painting above his head was faintly different.
And after he further analyzed it, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Those goblins, when did you start pricing so fairly? Only three Xike per person? β
