Chapter 273: A Way Out
"Are you just discovering this problem now?" Scrimgeour looked even more surprised than him, "I thought you found the problem as soon as you came in and came up with a solution, hurry up and search carefully, with your knowledge, you should be able to find a way out, isn't the way to get in the same way you found!"
"Don't worry, I'll see. ”
――
Lockhart tensed, the room was airtight, I don't know where the air to breathe came from, maybe it was brought in with the teleport......ation? And Lockhart, who is on vacation after ten o'clock, will come to work, if you meet him when you go out...... It's really going to have to fight your way out.
He surveyed the floor first, then the surrounding walls, and found that all of them had a layer of protective magic that was exactly the same as the one on the middle frame, and he saw every inch of it - that is, anyone attacking in any direction, as long as the strength of the mana attack per unit of time reached a threshold that could threaten it, could trigger a counterattack from the energy supply system, and then it would unceremoniously make everyone in the room lie down and remember their loved ones.
Noticing that there was only space in the room and no forbidden flying spells, Lockhart cast a spell to float himself, went up a few dozen meters and approached the dome, inspected it and then looked at the trunk of the big tree - everything they could touch, it was exactly the same.
"Do you want to attack every inch of it with magic like you did in the last room?" Lockhart guessed.
"Then you can come to Merlin to pick you up in a dream of the love of your life......" Scrimgeour scoffed, "and think of a serious way!"
Lockhart was a little flustered, if he couldn't find a way to get in, it would be easy to do it, just go back the same way, but if he couldn't find a way to get out, it would be different. He stood under the big tree again to see if there was anything unusual under the frame.
"You say that since this thing doesn't kill the intruders directly, but wants the secrecy to come in and subdue those people, there must be a way to get out......" Lockhart said nervously.
"Nonsense. The energy supply system still needs to be overhauled and maintained occasionally, can't it be repaired once and for a while to kill a group of people......" Scrimgeour couldn't figure out how to get out, "Maybe, it's timed, and when the time comes, it will automatically send us out?"
"Then we're going to wait?" Lockhart glared at Scrimgeur, "No way, if this device needs to be overhauled or remodeled, how does it know how much time it will take......
"Is it voice activation?" Lockhart remembered some special magic that required the right words or codes to get out, "Let's get out! Teleport! Open the door!"
Tried for a long time. There was no movement.
"Don't try it out, think about what you would say if a normal crew came in for maintenance or remodeling?" Scrimgeour reminded.
"Didn't your friend tell you how to get out!" said Lockhart, annoyed, "he must know." ”
"We didn't ask him, you didn't remember! I wasn't in charge of the interrogation, so I wasn't that careful, and I didn't expect that the energy supply system was not accessed through the guò channel. It's something that needs to be teleported in......" Scrimgeour also regretted a little, "I didn't ask, of course he couldn't take the initiative to sue me, otherwise he would break his oath." ”
Lockhart didn't continue to complain. He didn't think of asking how to get out after asking how to get in, and he subconsciously thought that coming in through that door would naturally go out through that door...... Let's think about the possible cipher, if it's not a mechanism triggered by voice, then it's likely that some special spell will be needed to get out.
"It's fixed...... Modification complete!" The two tried every possible password. "Mission over! That's it!...... Let us out. ”
"If it doesn't work, contact the people outside and ask them to go to Randu and ask how to get out, right?" Scrimgeour said helplessly, "Or have someone pick us up......" he took out a note, "Damn." Sure enough, it was shielded from the signal. ”
"We're going to go out and save the world, aren't we going to die here?" Lockhart said, twitching his cheeks, "I want to go out and meet my two older sisters, and tell them to their faces that I love them forever!"
――
As soon as the words fell, the energy supply device suddenly burst out again with a strong white light, and a huge white light curtain was projected not far in front of Lockhart, and after a few seconds, the light curtain stabilized, no longer a snow white, but seemed to form a door, and you could even see the wall tiles and the ground opposite the door.
"In?"
"Enter!"
Lockhart was the first to burst through the door, stomping on solid ground, followed by Scrimgeour as well. When they looked back, they were emerging from a large arch that rested on a large stone pedestal, surrounded by steps, and doors leading to the chambers of the other Mystical Divisions.
"It's not ......," Lockhart looked shocked.
"The arch of the death chamber is usually used for special executions. Scrimgeour confirmed Lockhart's suspicions, "How did we get out of here?"
The door that connected the energy chamber to the death chamber through Guò disappeared in a white light, revealing the worn drapery that hung from the arch.
"What's going on, did the people who were executed go to the energy room?" Lockhart wondered.
"No, it's supposed to be a coincidence," Scrimgeour dismissed the idea, "and those who pass the curtain will be banished to the void, and some say they'll be half-alive and half-dead, I guess there's no place to die." And the reason why the energy supply room has opened the door here is probably that the space in this arch is the most fragile and unstable, and it can send us out with the least amount of magic - what the hell did you say triggered this door?"
"Could it be that I said I love my sister and triggered the portal?" Lockhart was also puzzled, "Maybe this is the origin of the rumor that behind the locked door is the greatest power in the world - love?
"Alright, don't disgust me, it's almost ten o'clock. Scrimgeour looked at his watch and said in shock, "Let's get out of the Ministry of Magic or we might be discovered."
He took a sip of the polyjuice potion, transformed into the batter, and hurried with Lockhart to the elevator up the Mysteries. The Department of Mysteries is on the ninth basement floor, and the Ministry of Magic Hall is on the eighth basement floor, so you don't have to worry about encountering people on the road.
The fake Lockhart hadn't arrived yet, and they didn't show any flaws, so they left the enemy-occupied area smoothly, and Scrimgeour went straight back to his hiding place, and Lockhart had to go to the place where the batter's hand was lying, change his clothes, modify his memories, and then wake him up and let him go to work at the Ministry of Magic to avoid flaws.
