Chapter 1238: Underground

Yes, Joanna's heart was full of curiosity at this time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Because she realizes that this new companion has just joined, Emma Roberts is full of little secrets.

What is the reason for this, just because she is a well-known actress in Hollywood?

In fact, it is not strange that a wizard has some secrets, on the contrary, a wizard without a secret is even more suspicious.

Wizards are originally one of the representatives of the mysterious side, although there are many kinds of wizards, but usually, when people think of wizards, they either think of a witch like in the game, a small fireball in a large fireball thrown out in one breath, also called a wizard, or a witch who comes and goes without a trace, waving his hand and can change anything to the witch who is biased towards the field of life magic.

Toharry Potter and Dungeons & Dragons, two famous magical settings, are rarely associated with another, and most traditional, wizarding image, shrouded in black rags, like a strange old woman, with secrets hidden all over her body, and a whole bunch of messy images such as shriveled frogs and skulls.

This is the earliest image of magic, wizards, wizards, and witches, and it often comes from fairy tales or other legends.

It's rare now, but it's not non-existent.

Even when Joanna was still an Auror, she once met such an old wizard during a mission out of Romania.

She once thought that in addition to vampires, there were other strange plots mixed into that world.

But as it turned out, she didn't find a trace of the fairy tale's existence, although the old wizard was indeed very eccentric, almost as if he had been disconnected from the world.

However, the wizarding world is full of strange beings, such as five-legged monsters with terrifying origins, and it is not surprising that a few strange old wizards occasionally appear.

Discovered only on the northernmost island of Delia in Scotland, the five-legged monster is a highly dangerous carnivore with a special penchant for human flesh.

As the name suggests, they have five legs, each with a misshapen foot at the end, and a body that clings to the decent surface and is covered in red hair.

Legend has it that this thing was transformed by a wizard, and there were two wizarding families living on the island of Delia, and after a certain quarrel, one family took advantage of the night to sleep, and turned the other family into a five-legged monster with a transformation charm.

But they are obviously more dangerous when they become monsters, they attack and take revenge on another family in a frenzy, and it is not until there is not a single living wizard left on the island that these monsters probably realize that no one can wave their wands anymore, and they can only remain like this forever.

Joanna had seen the five-legged monster in the Department of Magical Beasts Management and Control, which was labeled as quite dangerous, but in fact, it was indeed one of the most dangerous magical creatures, especially for humans.

The fire dragon is also dangerous, but humans and unicorns are the same in front of it, ants, there will be no special treatment, but there will also be no special hostility.

But the five-legged monster is different, it has a crazy killing intent towards humans, and when two creatures appear in front of it, it will definitely choose to attack humans without hesitation.

It is precisely because of this that it has become more dangerous.

Just like the natural enemies of humans, although there is no place to restrain humans, there is a natural hostility towards humans.

There are a lot of wizards, especially those who are fascinated by magical beasts, who try to restore them from magic after learning their origins.

But they have only been met with stronger resistance and hostility, presumably even if they were once humans, and now they prefer to live as monsters.

Joanna saw this record and was immediately shocked.

It's too scary, okay.,It's a shame that those wizards can still tell them as braggaking stories.,If you think about it.,Some wizards have been turned into a monster forever because of the transformation spell.。。 Ugly, terrible, bloodthirsty, constantly attacking humans, eating raw flesh, but perhaps keeping the memory of humanity alive, forever. Forever..

Oh, that's terrible.

Joanna couldn't help but feel a tingle in her scalp and shivered.

She made up her mind that she would never, ever go to the hellish place of Delia Island.

There are not a few mysterious and strange phenomena in the wizarding world, and everyone has their own little secrets, Madison even has some secrets, it is nothing, but... The secret that Joanna discovers seems to be a little different from the normal secret.

Madison has a problem.

It's not that there's something wrong with what she's hiding, but it's about herself. There is a problem.

Joanna wasn't sure what it was, it couldn't be that Madison was a Boggart changer.

The explanation given by the old wizard is very interesting.,The anti-spell can protect all wizards.,So why did Madison fall into a fantasy?,In other words,Is it okay to think.。。 Maybe Madison wasn't a wizard.

Of course, anything can happen in the wizarding world, and maybe the truth wasn't as outrageous as Joanna had guessed, just for some other small reason they hadn't noticed.

But Joanna's suspicions about Madison aren't just because of the illusion.

And because before. At the time of Madison's distress.

Joanna once used the Flying Charm on Madison's clothes, but of course nothing flew over.

This is a very strange phenomenon, according to Joanna's prediction, there should only be two results of magic at that time, or the clothes flew with Madison. Either the clothes flew over on their own.

In any case, it will not be unresponsive.

But the real result was that not only did nothing fly over, but when Madison was found, there was no trace of her clothes being touched by the spell on the surface of her body.

What is the reason for this.

Joanna was sure that there was nothing wrong with her spells, she was a battle-hardened Auror and a former Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, and if a small flying spell went wrong, it would be worse than Lockhart.

The only possibility. It's that Madison is not Madison.

This explanation may be a bit confusing, but the more intuitive expression is Emma, not her real name.

She's not Emma Roberts, who she is.

Joanna had noticed the problem for a long time, but she didn't express it for the first time, first of all, it was just a suspicion or possibility, and secondly. She didn't know how to mention it at all.

Like now, even if her suspicions deepened again, Joanna couldn't ask anything.

It's a strange problem that she obviously has the appearance of Emma Roberts, but she is not the real Emma Roberts, which is even more abnormal than wearing a pseudonym.

Suddenly, Joanna frowned, as if she felt that she had grasped something, but unfortunately the inspiration was fleeting, and after shaking her head, she did not think of anything of value.

Why she did this, Joanna couldn't figure out.

And there is a more important question, and that is... If she's not Emma, then who is she, or so to speak. What is it.

。。。

"In front. . . It's right in front. ”

"I smell it, smell."

"Destroy it. . . Destroy it. ”

。。。

In the following journey, the witches can be said to be eye-opening, the Magic Congress is worthy of being left over from the most brilliant era of magical civilization at that time, and the defensive magic arranged around is far more than just a fantasy.

Magical refractions, spatial disorders, labyrinths of spells, many of which have long since been lost, and the magic they can't even name is placed in this seemingly endless passage.

The little witch named Delia seems to have a special interest in learning magic, and since discovering that it has lost its inheritance, whether it is Hogwarts or the collections of pure-blood nobles, even Dumbledore may not have heard of it, she has been pestering the old wizard in the portrait, trying to get him to teach him magic.

It's a pity that the old wizard doesn't seem to want to let these magic see the light of day, and his meaning is clear. I just don't want to teach.

In fact, Madison was also interested in these magics, but when he saw the old wizard like this, he could only pout his lips.

Maybe there are too many such guys in the wizarding world, so magic will lose its inheritance little by little.

If it weren't for the urgency of time, Madison had a way to get the old guy in the portrait to reveal his secret, but now was not the right time.

The tunnel full of traps was also long, but it was far from as long as everyone imagined, and after ten minutes, they gradually came to an end.

Madison noticed this and whispered, "Are you sure this place can stop the monsters behind you?" ”

The portrait was held by the witches, and the old wizard inside still left the portrait from time to time, and went to the other portraits to observe the silent position behind him.

Hearing Madison's complaint, he immediately gave an irresponsible response, "I didn't say I could stop it, otherwise I wouldn't have to stand here and talk to you." ”

"At most, it's just a delay. Or even worse. ”

I knew that this old guy was unreliable, Madison muttered inwardly.

And it turns out that this old guy will only be more pitted than Madison imagined, bottomless.

Moments later, the witches find themselves at a dead end. It can't be said to be a dead end, because the intersection in front of it is blocked by huge gravel, and the gravel falls tightly, but at least it was a road at one time.

"That's it." The old wizard said.

Madison's heart sank.

Before she could get angry, Imogen next to her had already burst out first.

"That's it? What's going on? What do you mean. ”

"Literally."

The old wizard's tone was light, "I have never deceived you along the way, move your head and think about it, we are trapped in an unknown world, if there is really a way out, will we still wait for you to come." ”

"I don't know how you got here, maybe we're no longer wandering in that unknown space, but I don't know how to get out."

"The current position. It is a secret passage of the Magic Congress, which can be exited through here. ”

"This is indeed the way out. Before being blocked by gravel. ”

Imogin's expression looked like she wanted to smash the portrait of the old wizard, but she didn't do it after all, first she knew that it was useless, the portrait was just a carrier, and secondly. The old wizard was right, he did his best along the way, and did not deceive them.

At last.. The old wizards were the only ones they could get help here, and they couldn't be expected to explore the Magic Kingdom on their own, a land full of out-of-control magic.

Joanna didn't panic, she stepped forward and gently aimed her wand at the gravel in front of her.

"At a glance." She whispered.

Moments later, she withdrew her wand with the sad news.

"The gravel is at least five meters thick. And the back is not a passage at all, it's dirt. ”

Madison didn't have time to be curious about the magic Joanna used, but he didn't expect that this stupid-looking upright witch had a lot of magic, even more than Imogen and the others, and she had a lot of spells.

She was more concerned about other issues.

With a thickness of five meters, it is almost impossible to break, and even if it is broken, it will cause the collapse of the entire tunnel, and most importantly, behind the gravel is not a passage at all, but dirt.

Yes, as the old wizard said, they are now buried deep underground, and the entire Magic Congress is sealed in the dirt, and unless you go up, the so-called exit passage is impossible to lead to the outside world.

Unless it's a teleportation-type magic circle.

But looking at the old wizard's meaning, it is clear that the Magic Congress does not have it, or it has failed.

Madison attempted Apparition and found that it was still within the range of the Reverse Spell, that Apparition was forbidden, and that the witch had a short teleportation but could not reach the surface through such a thick layer of soil.

"Go back the way you came." Madison said she realized that her people had made a serious mistake.

The witches looked at each other, and the atmosphere seemed to be a little sluggish.

It's not just a matter of doing useless work, but more importantly, they waste too much time, and it's very likely that they will collide with Silent Ran head-on.

But Delia didn't speak, her expression was a little stunned, as if she was listening to something.

Joanna frowned, and after a while, she suddenly said, "I don't believe I have to go back to the surface. ”

The battle of New York above was widespread, and likewise, the Magic Congress was also very large, so it was likely that there was more than just a gap to the surface.

Madison didn't speak, but her expression was a good expression of what she meant.

You can do it, you can do it.

Joanna really has a way.

She cocked her wand, then suddenly threw it upward, "Show me the way." She whispered.

Aurors' must-have tricks, what to do when a wizard gets lost, you don't need to learn the damn centaurs to look up at the stars, you just have to keep an eye on your wand.

Of course, this is not something that ordinary Aurors can master, this is what Joanna pulled out of Alastor Moody's hands.

As Joanna's spell ended, the wand began to spin wildly, in a circular shape, turning back and forth, left and right.

Eventually, its front section points diagonally to an upper-left position.

"Wow." Madison echoed expressionlessly.

She realized that she was underestimating these witches, some of the magic they mastered. It's really useful.

At this time, the old wizard who seemed to have brought them into the pit also suddenly had a wave of presence, and he suddenly emerged from the portrait in Madison's hand and said quickly.

"I saw it. The monster behind him stopped, beside the blue creatures. ”
