Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

"Boom!~"

With the sound of a burst of flames reverberating, Mike, Arthur, and several members of the Order of the Phoenix appeared in the magic hall.

It's just that this time the fire of the phoenix did not go out like the previous few times, but continued to rotate in mid-air.

Immediately afterwards, as the rotation of the Phoenix Fire accelerated, the fifty Los Santos wizards brought by Mike had all been swallowed up by the flames.

At this point, except for Dumbledore, all the members of this night raid have all arrived.

The reason why Dumbledore did not appear here is also one of the plans that everyone had discussed.

Dumbledore will not act with the large army. He will hide in the dark and provide support in critical moments. In addition, he will not take action in tonight's operation.

Mike understands this very well. Now that Voldemort has not appeared, if he follows the large army directly, it will easily attract Voldemort to attack.

According to Dumbledore's previous statement, his own strength is not as good as Voldemort's. If he is attacked again, then although Dumbledore himself will be fine at that time, their accompanying personnel will be different.

If you really want to be attacked, Dumbledore won't have the time to control them. If they don't say whether they can weaken the power of the Death Eaters this time, their own personnel will be greatly reduced.

It's just that Mike remained skeptical about Dumbledore's words that he would take action in times of crisis. He believed that if he and the members of the Order of the Phoenix were in danger, Dumbledore would definitely take action, but if Arthur and the wizards of Los Santos were in danger Distress is not necessarily the case, you must know that the two gangs just had some unpleasant experiences not long ago.

In the hall of magic, the wizards of Los Santos who had just landed quickly stood in alert formation and began to observe the surroundings vigilantly, and Moody and Tonks, two senior Aurors, were doing the same thing. .

As for Mike and Arthur, the two of them looked at the entire magic hall with indifferent faces. With their strength, as long as it wasn't for Voldemort to visit tonight, there would be basically no danger.

There is a significant difference between the magic hall at night and the daytime. It is not only silent here, but except for the 'Magic Brothers' fountain in the center of the hall, which is composed of centaurs, goblins, witches and wizards, symbolizing the power of wizards. There is no light source beyond the dim light.

However, the dark environment is not a hindrance to Mike and the others. All of them drank the night vision potion provided by Snape before coming here. Now in the dark night, except for a little color difference, the vision is basically No difference from daytime.

Los Santos wizards and Moody did not find anyone in the halls of magic after careful observation, not even the security checkpoint, which is usually staffed 24 hours a day.

A smile appeared on Mike's face upon seeing this. This strange situation was undoubtedly telling them a piece of information - the Death Eaters had already entered the arena first!

Thinking of this, Mike raised his hand and made several complicated gestures. Then he saw all the Los Santos combatants around him, including Arthur, pulling on the hoods matching their combat uniforms and pressing on his chest. Los Santos logo.

Immediately afterwards, the figures of Arthur and the others slowly faded, and finally merged with the dark night, almost completely invisible.

"Is this the invisible monster leather jacket?"

Moody looked at Mike in shock with his mouth open.

Seeing this, Mike pursed his lips and nodded. The amount of Jin Galleon he smashed on this wizard unit was completely astronomical. In addition to the conventional combat equipment, he also put a lot of invisible monsters in his battle suit. Leather, the skin of this magical creature that is the raw material for the invisibility cloak, is now on the brink of extinction due to the imbalance between supply and demand, which has also caused the price of their skin to skyrocket.

And the result of Mike spending a lot of money is that now all the combatants in Los Santos have acquired the ability to be almost invisible!

This ability is not completely invisible, it is still very obvious during the day, but at night, they are definitely a stealth weapon!

But most importantly, this invisibility does not require magic power!

Moody's jealous eyes are about to pop out. Even the most elite Auror army in magic is definitely not as good as this Los Santos wizarding army in terms of equipment!

"It's getting late, let's go straight!"

Mike didn't mean to talk nonsense any more, he directly flipped the switch on the combat uniform and entered the stealth state together.

Upon seeing this, Moody finally put away his greedy eyes temporarily, and walked forward with some unwillingness to start clearing the way.

The destination of their trip is the Department of Mysteries on the ninth floor of the Ministry of Magic. This department can be said to be the most mysterious department in the entire Ministry of Magic. At the same time, it can be regarded as the scientific research department of the Ministry of Magic. A large number of top wizards have all turned into The silent man, in which he studies the most profound and mysterious things in the entire wizarding world.

For example: time, thought, memory, prophecy, death, strength, longevity...

Mike is no stranger to this place. He had come to sit here when Harry was first charged.

If you want to go to the Department of Mysteries, you must take the magic elevator. Moody and Tonks agree that there is definitely danger and ambush in the sealed and small environment of the magic elevator, but Mike doesn't care, he is very aware of Voldemort's trip. The purpose is to let Harry take down the prophecy ball.

Then it is impossible for him to arrange any obstacles on the way to the Hall of Prophecy, because with Harry Potter's IQ, it is very likely that he will be blocked from the Hall of Prophecy.

"Ding! The Department of Mysteries!"

As a cold female voice sounded in the elevator, Mike, Arthur and others were all relieved, and this time their guess was correct.

Mike immediately used the instant messaging president to notify the remaining Los Santos wizards, Moody and others who had not come down, while himself and Arthur and others left the elevator first.

Different from the magic hall, a large number of torches were lit on both sides of the corridor leading to the Department of Mysteries. Shaking slightly, this made the faint shadows of Mike and the others continue to tremble with the trembling of the flames.

"The flame goes out!"

With a flick of his wand in Mike's hand, a lights-out spell was thrown out.

All the torches on both sides of the corridor were extinguished in an instant, the whole corridor returned to darkness again, and the only shadow that could reveal the whereabouts of Mike and the others finally disappeared.

At this time, the elevator behind several people also made a crisp sound again, and Moody and others finally arrived.

"What's the matter?"

Moody said while looking around.

"No," Mike nodded to him, "let's go."

After speaking, Mike took the lead and walked towards the depths of the corridor.

In the innermost part of the corridor there is a dark lacquered stone door, which is an automatic door driven by a mechanism. sound.

Immediately afterwards, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a huge space that was also pitch-black inside.

This is a large circular room, with eleven black stone doors that are exactly the same as the previous one separated on the walls of the room.

After everyone entered the room, the stone door they had entered was automatically closed, and the surrounding scene suddenly changed. Everyone only felt that everything in front of them began to spin and jump for a while. After all the anomalies disappeared, everyone was surprised. They found that the stone door behind them had changed positions, and they could no longer find the stone door leading to the outside of the magic!

Los Santos wizards immediately became alert, and Mike also looked at Moody behind him with dissatisfaction.

The current situation is something he and others have never encountered before. As the former commander of the Auror Office, Moody has no reason to not know the arrangement of the Department of Mysteries, but he has never told himself.

Sure enough, Moody's face had a smile on his face, and that smile, combined with the hideous scar on his face, looked very ferocious and very unbeatable.

Mike's expression became more and more bad, and he was almost certain that Moody did it on purpose!

"Don't be nervous, this is just a general anti-theft measure. In fact, there are hidden signs on each door to indicate their function!"

Tonks walked towards a stone door, pointed to an indiscernible circular mark on the right side of the stone door and said:

"Look, this clock mark indicates that behind this door is the Hall of Time, and as long as we pass the Hall of Time, we can reach the Hall of Prophecy!"

Mike's expression softened a little, and nodded to Arthur, who stepped forward with a blank expression and opened the stone door.

On the other hand, Moody snorted coldly. It seemed that he was very dissatisfied with Tonks' leaking information in advance.

It's just that Tonks obviously wouldn't buy his account, and after making a face at him, he hid behind Lupin again.

"Kazkatz!"

With the sound of gears turning, the stone gate finally opened.

Behind the door is another huge room, but it is different from the original dim room. There is a huge crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling of this huge room, which is now emitting bright light all around.

Beneath the huge chandeliers are neatly arranged rows of containers, with a large number of odd-shaped clocks placed on top of them, ranging from the smallest pocket watches, common Muggle alarm clocks to huge cabinet-style pendulum clocks.

And the clocks were still running, causing the room to be filled with the ticking sound of time passing.

This weird scene made Mike, Arthur and the others look a little dumbfounded, while Tonks explained in time:

"This is the Time Hall, where the silent people will study the secrets of time. Although I don't know their specific research process, there is no doubt that anything here is very dangerous, everyone must be careful. Oh! By the way, this is also the place where the time-turners are stored, and most of the time-turners in the whole of Europe are stored here for the silent people to study."

Mike nodded. In fact, without Tonks' explanation, he basically guessed that this room should be the laboratory where the silent people study time.

Because he saw a huge experimenter at the end of the room!

It was a huge bell-shaped crystal hood almost two meters high, which was firmly placed on a table, and there was a hazy, shimmering, shimmering breath inside.

And within the hood floated a small egg as beautiful as a gem.

It floated up quickly in the hood, split open, and then a hummingbird broke out of its shell.

But as soon as the juvenile hummingbird appeared, it was lifted up by the surrounding magic along with the eggshell, and flew towards the glowing smoky breath above it.

During the flight, the hummingbird, which had just broken its shell, seemed to have been pressed by the fast-forward button and started to grow rapidly. The wet feathers on its body were dried in an instant, and its body began to expand continuously!

But the moment it came into contact with the suffocating breath, a scene that made Mike's pupils shrink suddenly happened.

Just like replaying a videotape, the little bird that just turned into an adult hummingbird was sealed back into the eggshell again, and then the cracks on the eggshell healed quickly, until Mike fully reacted. At that time, the hummingbird had already fallen down slowly for an egg.

The hairs on Mike's whole body stood up. At this moment, he has been completely conquered by the power of time, and at the same time, he has a little reverence for the silent people!

That's a bunch of real lunatics!

"Tonks." Mac calmed down and said, "Lead the way."

The latter also seemed to see Mike's nervousness, and she responded and led the crowd towards the bell crystal.

And as the distance shortened, the rest of the people also noticed the horror scene inside the bell crystal, including Moody's point where everyone moved away from it - no one wanted to change like the poor hummingbird. Be an old man or a baby!

Behind the large bell-shaped crystal stood a gate, and Tonks took the lead and pushed open the gate.

Then there was a room in front of everyone with a lot of shelves like the Time Hall, but unlike the Time Hall, the light in this room was extremely dim, and there were no gorgeous chandeliers on the ceiling at all. The only light source was the faint blue candles scattered around the walls, and the items on the shelves were also different from the Time Hall. They were actually filled with all kinds of gray crystal balls.

After everyone entered the room, the door behind them automatically closed again. Tonks turned his head and smiled and said to everyone:

"Welcome to the Hall of Prophecy."

At this point, everyone is relieved. What they have seen in the time hall just now is beyond everyone's imagination. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never believe that someone would do such a terrifying experiment again!

But when everyone just relaxed, a faint human voice suddenly came from a little farther ahead!
