Chapter 266: The Twists and Turns of Finding the Portkey

The penultimate floor of the Ministry of Magic of the Enamel Kingdom is made up of a very sloping platform with a glass-door room next to the platform.

It was supposed to be an office, with the words "Les Arcêtres" written on the door in French. Through the glass portal, you can see a range of stationery and work equipment on the desk, including a circular ticker that flies around like a snake and a silver metal quill.

"We shouldn't be wrong." Vanessa looked at the office work items enumerated in front of the office door and said to the members of the wizarding team. "This is where you can guide guests, manage communications, and provide system services, and the door keys should be stored here."

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and get it?" Spindor impatiently drew his wand and cast a lock-picking spell on the lock.

The door lock did not move at all.

"There should be a powerful anti-Alaho Cave opening spell here." Vanessa frowned.

Then she tried another lockpicking spell as well, but the door lock still didn't respond.

"It seems that I can only forcibly break open this door, and I don't know how strong the defensive magic of the Ministry of Magic of the Enamel Kingdom is." She sighed and prepared to use a destructive spell to blast open the glass door of her office.

At this moment, a magnetic female voice suddenly sounded.

"Or else...... Let me try? Miranda said thoughtfully.

Vanessa glanced at the intern in surprise, but moved out of her seat, thinking that a dead horse might be a live horse doctor.

The others were not so good-tempered, for example, Spinning said dissatisfiedly: "What do you know about a little girl who has not yet graduated, can you open the door lock that neither of us nor Vanessa can open?" ”

Miranda ignored her, and pressed the tip of her wand against the handle of the glass door.

"Open Sesame." She read.

The next moment, the door lock suddenly split in half, and the two parts that split fell to the ground from the inside and outside of the glass door at the same time. In the original position of the handle, there are now only two solitary deadbolts left at the junction of the door and the wall.

Miranda reached out and pulled the deadbolt from the hollow handle as she explained to Vanessa, "Before the Portal Cave and the Arajo Cave were opened, Sesame Open was a lockpicking spell that had a wide audience. However, because it destroys the structure of the lock itself, it is gradually replaced by a harmless lockpicking charm. ”

"But because it has been replaced, many wizards haven't even heard of this spell, so most places don't have a corresponding counter-spell, and using sesame seeds to open the door will work wonders at this time!"

Miranda smiled and pushed open the door and made a gesture of invitation to Vanessa.

"Goshak, it looks like you're quite knowledgeable!" Vanessa looked at Miranda in amazement and exclaimed.

Then, she seemed to think of something suddenly, and this surprise immediately turned into consternation, "Wait, Miranda Goshawk, you are the author of the Book of Spells?!" ”

Miranda nodded reservedly, a smile in her eyes, and glanced casually at Spencer.

Spencer, who was still questioning Miranda's magical abilities just now, was embarrassed to turn his head away, not knowing what to say.

"Looks like our team has picked up a treasure this time." Vanessa smiled and walked into the office first, looking for the location of the doorkey.

……

Five minutes later, the group of wizards stood in front of a metal shelf with ugly faces.

The words "Doorkey" were clearly marked on the shelf, but the shelf was empty, and there was not a single shadow of the portkey.

"We should have thought that the evacuation of the Ministry of Magic of the Enamel Kingdom was most likely achieved through the portkey." Vanessa said with a frown. "So it's only natural that they use up all their inventory."

"So what do we do? The Witch Party may be here soon, are we going to stay here and wait for death?! Spinder asked impatiently.

"Actually, I know the spell for making a portkey—Portus." At this critical moment, Miranda spoke again. "If I can find the permission key here, I think I can make a temporary portkey to go to the country."

"Then let's go find it!" Spindor grabbed his shiny head and rushed to the desk at the door of his office.

However, he had not been halfway to his desk when he stopped abruptly.

Then, Spindo slowly raised his hands and stepped back in a cold sweat.

"I didn't expect to find the volunteers of the Federation here, it's really a big gain!" A group of black-pressed figures walked in, and the black-robed man at the head spoke. "Oh, there seems to be a Hogwarts student as well?"

Vanessa stared, glanced at the team members around her, and quietly carried her wand behind her back.

"Master Grindelwald said that he wanted to keep the living forces of the wizarding world, so that student could keep it. As for the others, just kill them. The black-robed man at the head waved his hand casually and said to a large group of subordinates in the rear.

"Goshak, Grindelwald is quite kind to the students, so you can choose not to make a move, or you may get hurt in the melee." Vanessa whispered to Miranda. "When you really become strong, remember to avenge us when the time comes."

"But I didn't come to the battlefield just to be a spectator." Miranda shook her head slowly but firmly and addressed the conscientious captain. "In fact, I joined your squad for this kind of urgent battle scene!"

Vanessa stared into Miranda's blue eyes and chuckled.

"Okay."

The next moment, the two sides fought fiercely together!

Colourful spells sprinkled throughout the original archival office, illuminating the glass doors and walls.

As a veteran Auror, Vanessa's strength should not be underestimated. In this battle, she burst out with great combat power, and single-handedly withstood the pressure of nearly half of the entire wizard squad.

To everyone's surprise, Miranda was alone in blocking a third of the spells flying from the opposite side, and even had a feeling of ease.

The two powerful combat forces made the rest of the team members fight very easily, and even gradually forgot that this was a battle of life and death.

However, the wizard squad was at a natural disadvantage in terms of numbers after all, and after a few minutes, several wizards in the squad gradually felt that they were powerless, and the pressure of sharing the battle became less and less, and the pressure on the others became more and more great.

Feeling the pressure mounting, Vanessa threw a spell and shouted to Miranda, "Goshak, it's time for you to stop, don't wipe out our entire team!" ”

Miranda gritted her teeth and blocked a wave of concentrated fire with an iron armor charm, and her face suddenly turned white.

At this life-and-death time, she once again felt a sense of powerlessness due to lack of strength. The bottleneck that stood in the way of magic became more and more apparent, and Miranda could not do anything about it.

At this moment, a golden circle of light quietly appeared beside Miranda.

"Miranda, I just sensed that you came to the Enamel Kingdom from the two-way mirror, and I think you can come to our family...... Hey, what's going on here? ”
