Chapter 318: Black Iron City (6)

In this catacomb, which is full of black iron armor, even if there are more than two hundred wizards, it still seems very empty, and the atmosphere here is a little oppressive and solidified, except for the two 'tourists' who are being taken to visit this place in front of them, the rest of the people can't help but be silent.

Whether it was the scholars and wizards in charge of research, or the Aurors in charge of the security and other work here, they were all silent, and thousands of thoughts were surging in their hearts.

Researchers are worried about whether they will be able to continue the job they are doing now, after all, they have spent years of dark ascetic research for it, and it is not free will that keeps them going, but the good pay and the reputation they will gain after successful research in the future.

People live in the world, and there are people who don't seek fame or profit, but obviously they are not among them, even if this man continues to let them study the ancient treasures here, the generous salary and the pending placement of their own family will definitely be gone, after all, that is something that can only be arranged by the Ministry of Magic, and it is not something that individuals can do casually, besides, with this guy's character of treating human life as a mustard, even if there is a result, it is difficult for his name to appear on the list of signatures.

Maybe the leading few university scholars may have, but most of them are certainly not playing.

The Aurors think more simply, they don't worry about money, but they worry about their lives.

Compared to the more controllable and more valuable research scholars, the position of the Aurors at the moment is very embarrassing, they can't deal with this guy together, that thin magic barrier is not impossible to break, but judging from the results of their previous personal tests, it will take at least five to ten seconds for them to gather fire before it is possible to break the magic barrier that is neither scientific nor magical.

The wizarding world does have magic barriers that are stronger than that, but they are all used by fortress strongholds, permanent and semi-permanent defensive barriers built with large alchemy arrays, when will a single person be able to carry this thing?

Although said. There is indeed a precedent for carrying a single person, but there is only one Nicol Lemay in the world! Just one guy can make magic stones that are miraculous!

If Nicolame hadn't slaughtered the revived goblin empire and plundered the astronomical amount of huge wealth accumulation, he wouldn't have been able to do the extravagant act of throwing one of the philosopher's stones, alchemy would have burned money, and the refining of the philosopher's stone was a fighter in the money-burning battle, and using this stone to simply take some gold was the most loss-making thing.

'Could it be that this guy is Nicolame's. Bastard? ’

Such an idea came to someone's mind, but after thinking about it, Nicolame has not even had a child for hundreds of years, and the nickname of the elixir includes 'the world's first sterilization potion', and he can't see his own son, where there may be any illegitimate children, besides, this person has black hair and black eyes, and he is still five big and three thick, and it is more convincing to say that he is a descendant of Trajan the Great than Nicolamay illegitimate son.

At this moment, when the Aurors were impetuous, a faint magic fluctuation touched their bodies, and a familiar voice sounded in their ears, and in an instant, the originally discouraged Aurors suddenly had a backbone.

'It's Director Tom!' ’

'Why is Director Tom here?!' ’

The Aurors restrained themselves from glancing around to find the man, and lowered their heads slightly under the whispering instructions in their ears, trying not to make any unusual moves, so that the adversary who was 'playing' in front of them would not notice their situation at the moment.

Speaking of Director Tom, none of the Aurors did not admire him, although at the beginning, as the airborne commander, he was opposed and hostile by many people, but in just a few months, he almost perfectly controlled the entire Auror department, compared to the previous boss's boastful pie, Director Tom is really doing people's work.

not only improved the welfare, bereavement and other benefits that should have been implemented early in the Auror department, but also made them have made visible progress in strength, their wallets are bulging, their lives are better, their work is easier, and their waists are straighter than before.

For the Aurors, and even for colleagues in other departments of the Ministry of Magic, the most commendable thing that the Minister of Magic has done over the years is to recruit Director Tom to the Ministry of Magic, and in just one year, the call for Director Tom to be the Minister is getting louder and louder, maybe in another year, the Ministry of Magic will really change its door, which is a good thing that everyone is happy to see, and other departments have been coveting the Aurors for a long time, and they have long been looking forward to being able to replace such a great boss.

"I'm always there for you."

Director Tom's magnetic voice echoed softly in their ears but seemed. People seemed to hear a hint of 'gnashing of teeth' hidden in this calm voice.

Maybe it's because Director Tom also hates the demon who just killed several of their colleagues, and people can't help but rekindle their bitter hatred for that guy in their hearts.

"Don't worry, that guy is really strong, but this is our home turf."

Director Tom's voice temporarily suppressed the burning hatred in people's hearts, and everyone listened intently to the calm whisper.

"The protective magic of the dungeon has been suppressed, but it has not been destroyed, I need someone to go to these nodes to manually activate the defensive magic here, the first thing is to break the confinement of the anti-phantom transfiguration spell, the Aurors are in charge of this small team, you slowly move until the designation, wait for my signal."

"Second, although the cracking and reverse engineering of the black iron armor is progressing slowly, these black iron armors are not in the stage of being damaged and unusable, and the ministry has found a way to open and drive them, but since the black iron armor here has not replaced the magic crystal, we can only drive small armor by relying on our own magic power."

"This can greatly improve our mobility and survival rate, it is difficult to deal with that guy with a few squads here, what we need is reinforcements."

Director Tom began to name them one by one, and he could almost name the more than two hundred people present, and this careful point was also noticed, and in addition to being moved, their loyalty was one step closer than before.

After a quick initial staffing arrangement, Director Tom continued:

"I will blow open the door that blocks the exit, and the rest of the people who have not been clicked by me will immediately cooperate with me to use a combination spell at the moment when the signal appears, and if you can't break that magic barrier in a short time, you won't break it, there are many ways to trap him."

From beginning to end, Director Tom didn't show up in front of anyone, and people didn't find out where he was, but everyone listened carefully to the arrangement, without a trace of hesitation, I don't know why, when they heard this voice, the first thought in people's minds was 'trust him, he is a leader you can trust'.

Because of this powerful personal charisma, in the space of a year, the Ministry of Magic has fallen for him.

The people who were secretly acting on their own moved cautiously, waiting for the earth-shattering signal to sound, and in front of them, the two people who were touring, seemed to know nothing.
