Chapter 266 The twists and turns of searching for the door key
Chapter 266 The twists and turns of searching for the door key
The penultimate floor of the Ministry of Magic is made up of a platform with a large slope. There is a room with a glass door next to the platform.
This should be an office, with the words "Les Archiving Ancêtres" written in French on the door. Through the glass portal, desks inside can be seen housing an array of stationery and work equipment, including a circular ticker that flies around like a snake and a silver metallic quill.
"We shouldn't have found anything wrong." Vanessa said to the members of the wizard team while looking at the enumerated office work projects in front of the office door. "This is the place to guide guests, manage communications, and system services. The door keys should also be stored here."
"Then what are you waiting for? Go in and get it quickly?" Spindo impatiently pulled out his wand and cast an unlocking spell on the door lock.
The door lock didn't move at all.
"There should be a powerful anti-Alajo opening spell here." Vanessa said with a frown.
Then she tried another lock-picking spell, but the door lock still didn't respond.
"It seems that we can only forcefully break open the door. I don't know how strong the defense magic of the Ministry of Magic is." She sighed, preparing to use a destructive spell to blow open the glass door of the office.
At this moment, a magnetic female voice suddenly sounded.
"How about...let me give it a try?" Miranda said thoughtfully.
Vanessa glanced at the intern in surprise, but still stepped aside, thinking that it would be better to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
Others were not so good-tempered. For example, Spindu said dissatisfiedly: "What do you, a little girl who has not yet graduated, know? Do you think you can open the door lock that Vanessa and I can't open?" Can't you open it?"
Miranda didn't listen and just put the tip of her wand on the handle of the glass door.
"OpenSesame," she read.
The next moment, the door lock suddenly broke into two halves, and the two split parts fell to the ground from both the inside and outside of the glass door. Where the handle once was, there were now only two solitary bolts blocking the junction between the door and the wall.
Miranda reached out and pulled out the door bolt from the hollow handle, while explaining to Vanessa and the others: "Before the Door Opening and Alajo Opening appeared, Open Sesame was a lock-picking spell with a wide audience. But because it can It destroyed the structure of the door lock itself, so it was gradually replaced by the harmless unlocking spell."
"But just because it has been replaced, many wizards have not even heard of this spell, so most places do not have corresponding counter-spells. At this time, using Open Sesame will be miraculous!"
Miranda smiled and opened the door, making an inviting gesture to Vanessa.
"Gorshak, it seems that you are quite knowledgeable!" Vanessa looked at Miranda in surprise and praised.
Then, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and this surprise immediately turned into consternation, "Wait, Miranda Gorshak, you are the author of "The Book of Spells"?!"
Miranda nodded reservedly, a smile appeared in her eyes, and she glanced at Spindo casually.
Spindo, who had just been questioning Miranda's magical ability, turned away in embarrassment, not knowing what to say.
"It seems that our team has found a treasure this time." Vanessa smiled, walked into the office first, and began to search for the location of the door key.
……
Five minutes later, the wizard team stood in front of a metal shelf with ugly expressions.
The shelf was clearly marked with the word "Port Key", but there was nothing on the shelf, not a trace of a door key left.
"We should have thought long ago that the evacuation of the Ministry of Magic of China would most likely be accomplished through portkeys." Vanessa said with a frown. "So it's only natural that they use up all their stocks."
"Then what should we do? The Wu Cui Party may arrive here soon. Do we have to stay here and wait to die?!" Spindo asked impatiently.
"Actually, I do know the spell to make the door key - Portus." At this critical moment, Miranda spoke again. "If I can find the permission key here, I think I can temporarily make a door key to the country of Yu."
"Then let's go look for it quickly!" Spencer grabbed his shiny forehead and rushed to the desk at the door of the office.
However, before he had even walked halfway to the desk, he stopped suddenly.
Then, Spindo slowly raised his hands and backed away dripping with cold sweat.
"I didn't expect to find volunteers from the Federation here. What a great harvest!" A group of dark figures walked in, and the man in black robes at the head said. "Oh, it seems there is another Hogwarts student?"
Vanessa's eyes narrowed, she winked at the surrounding team members, and quietly put her wand behind her back.
"Lord Grindelwald said that the magic world should be preserved as a viable force, so that student can be kept. As for the others, just kill them." The leader of the black-robed man waved his hand casually and said to the large group of subordinates behind him. .
"Gorshak, Grindelwald is quite kind to students, so you can choose not to take action, otherwise you may be hurt in the melee." Vanessa whispered to Miranda. "When you become truly powerful, just remember to avenge us."
"But I didn't come to the battlefield just to be a bystander." Miranda shook her head slowly but firmly and said to the responsible captain. "In fact, I joined your team just for this urgent battle scene!"
Vanessa stared into Miranda's blue eyes and chuckled.
"it is good."
The next moment, the two sides were fighting fiercely!
Colorful spells filled the original archives office, making the glass doors and walls shine brightly.
As a veteran Auror, Vanessa's strength cannot be underestimated. In this battle, she showed great fighting power, and she withstood nearly half of the pressure of the entire wizard team by herself.
What everyone didn't expect was that Miranda actually blocked one-third of the magic spells flying from the opposite side on her own, and she even felt quite comfortable.
The two powerful combatants made the remaining team members fight very easily, and even gradually forgot that this was a life and death battle.
However, the wizard team is at a natural disadvantage in terms of numbers. After a few minutes, several wizards in the team gradually began to feel that they were unable to do their best. They were sharing less and less battle pressure, and the pressure on others was getting greater and greater. .
Feeling the increasing pressure she was facing, Vanessa threw away a spell and shouted loudly to Miranda: "Gorshak, it's time for you to stop, don't let our entire team be annihilated! "
Miranda gritted her teeth and used the Iron Armor Curse to block the wave of concentrated fire, her face suddenly turned pale.
In this life-or-death situation, she once again felt the powerlessness of lack of power. The bottleneck blocking the path to magic became more and more obvious, but Miranda was powerless.
At this moment, a golden halo quietly appeared next to Miranda.
"Miranda, I just sensed from the double-sided mirror that you have come to Faguo. I think you can come to our family... Hey, why is there a fight here?"
