Chapter 57 Transactions

The Ministry of Magic's visit was expected. Lin Xuan knew that he would have to greet them one day.

The Ministry of Magic is located in a downtown building. A lot of Traceless Expansion Charms were used inside, creating a lot of space. At the same time, he also used the Maji Confusion Charm to organize the entry of Maji. It's located in the heart of New York.

As soon as you enter, a huge clock appears directly above your eyes. The clock has four sides, ensuring that either side can be seen at first glance. The hall offers a wide variety of services. From simple magician registration, to cleaning out wands, to reporting magical incidents, it can all be done in the hall. Some house-elves, as well as goblins, work here for the Ministry of Magic. At first glance, it gives a sense of highly developed magic.

In the elevator, an old goblin is responsible for driving the elevator. All the way to the top floor. Lin Xuan was told that he had arrived at the place.

The president of the American Magical Association is a black woman. And rightfully so. In the vast majority of Hollywood blockbusters, blacks are indispensable at the top of the official organization. If a TV show doesn't feature blacks, there will be a whole bunch of inexplicable guys protesting the film's racism when it comes out.

Like most official leaders, this chairman is stubborn and conceited. I only know the rigid obsessiveness of the laws of the Ministry of Magic. Granward had been lurking around her for so long that he didn't know anything.

It's just that for Lin Xuan, who is familiar with the plot, it is still a very simple matter to deal with her.

The two Aurors who led the way left directly after taking Lin Xuan into the office on the top floor. Obviously, this is a high-level conference room, and the two of them can participate.

As soon as he entered the conference room, Lin Xuan felt an obvious sense of suppression. There is more than one danger point. Apparently there is some kind of limiting magic set up here. At the same time, there is more than one crackdown. There were three people in the room in addition to the Chairman. Looks like a high-ranking member of the Ministry of Magic, as well as a role like the chairman's secretary. The rest was undoubtedly Granward's disguised Minister of Security.

"Mr. Lin, I'm sorry to invite you in this way. But there are some things we have to talk about. It's about your magical heritage. ”

"I thought it was quite a privacy issue. So I can choose not to talk about it? ”

"In that case, we'll have to talk about your blatant use of dark magic in the city."

"Well, I admit that I used black magic to punish a madwoman. Any questions? ”

"Of course there is a problem. According to the Ministry of Magic, wizards are not allowed to use magic in front of the No-Maj. Unless it is in the case of external self-defense. But as far as we know, you were not threatened at that time, so your actions were illegal. ”

"By what you say, I'm really breaking your laws. But the question is, why should I obey your laws? People obey the law because they also enjoy the protection that the law affords. But I have never enjoyed the convenience of any of your systems, and I have never even learned your magic. You're going to want me to travel your obligations. ”

"Every magician who comes to New York must obey the laws here, or we will enforce them." The Chairman's tone had begun to aggravate. It's just that Lin Xuan didn't seem to be afraid at all.

"Interesting, you make laws and then force everyone to obey them. So who gave you the right to make laws? Why should I be asked to obey this law without my consent when it was enacted. ”

"Qubbling doesn't change your situation, Mr. Lin. Here, the Magic Council sets the rules, and this cannot be changed. With the chairman's words, Lin Xuan obviously felt that the restrictions in the conference room had become stronger. But looking at the faces of the others that did not change at all, Lin Xuan knew that this restriction was only aimed at himself.

"I knew that negotiations would never come to fruition. Because we all think we are on the side of the advantage, we will never make concessions. In the end, it is up to the fists to solve the problem. All of you here are high-level officials of the Ministry of Magic, so they must also be powerful magicians? ”

Before Lin Xuan's words were finished, Granward had already sensed something? He stepped back sharply, pulled out his wand, and fainted at Lin Xuan. But an invisible barrier beside Lin Xuan bounced off this spell.

"Wandless spellcasting?" Glenward's face was a little solemn.

"I have to say that the magic of your department is indeed very well developed. But you have a fatal heel. You're so reliant on wands. ”

Lin Xuan's fingers lightly touched the table, and an invisible fluctuation came out. The formation in the conference room became extremely active the moment he cast the spell, but Lin Xuan didn't seem to feel it, and pointed out this finger casually. An invisible vibration spread throughout the conference table. In the next second, the six-meter-long conference table was directly reduced to fragments. And tens of thousands of pieces of roughly equal size. All this happened silently, and the chairman and the others had just taken out their wands and saw the scene in front of them. I was a little dumbfounded.

Wandless spellcasting is a skill that everyone here has mastered, and it's not impossible to do it to this extent. But he did it under the suppression of the forbidden magic array. It's pretty scary.

"Can we talk again now?"

"I admit that you are a powerful mage, but the law is sacred and no one can break it. Besides, no matter how powerful you are, this is the Magic Council, and you think you can really get out. ”

"First of all, I never wanted to be an enemy of the Magical Council. All I wanted was what I deserved. ”

"What do you want?"

"Magic. I want your magic, and after learning your magic, I will naturally obey your laws. I think it's rightfully deserved. Of course, in exchange I can also share my magic, as if I was paying for the tuition. ”

Lin Xuan felt that a few people on the other side saw a faint wave of magic fluctuation. He knew that several people were discussing it in private. Lin Xuan didn't try to eavesdrop. For him, the deal was not necessary. He had more than one option to get his hands on the magic of this world. Whether it's the black market, the magic family, or even those black magicians, they can be the object of trade. Choosing the Magic Council is just the most official channel.

After a few minutes, the discussion seemed to have a result.

"Mr. Lin, in principle, we agree to your request. But there must be certain restrictions on our transactions. ”

"Then it's time for the real negotiations." Lin Xuan smiled.
