Raven's Claw at Hogwarts - Chapter 615
c613 Mr. Mission Must Be Fulfilled
Harry pursed his lips when he heard this, and his close friend spoke, but his steps stopped.
He looked at the densely packed crowd below, and finally made up his mind and walked downstairs.
He thought clearly, as the Death Cloak said, there is no turning back when you shoot a bow. Now he has no room to look back, and all he can do is to move forward with his head covered!
Looking at Mike’s reaction, Death Cloak laughed strangely.
It seemed to be very familiar with this place, constantly guiding Harry in the direction he was going.
With its help, although there were many white-robed wizards walking around, Harry still arrived in front of a magnificent palace without any danger.
Compared to other palaces, there are far fewer people in front of this palace, but in terms of danger level, it is the highest among all palaces!
Because the people standing in front of its door are no longer those men in white robes carrying things in a hurry, but six fully armed and vigilant fighting wizards!
The door of the palace was open, but the strange thing was that Harry couldn’t see the scene inside at all. All he could see was darkness, which made the palace look like a bird with its mouth open waiting for prey to fall into a trap. monster!
Harry had to stop, and he said softly with some fear:
“where is this place?”
‘Prison, a prison for those bad things. ’ Death Cloak said, ‘Go forward boldly, these guards are all just showy, they won’t be able to detect you at all. In addition, you don’t have to worry about them using the same method as last time to trace your location. Now all their thoughts are on Mike Townley, and they don’t care about you at all. ’
This time, Harry didn’t hesitate much and walked directly towards the entrance after hearing this.
Fortunately, the Death Cloak did not deceive Harry.
Under the protection of the Death Cloak, the guards standing at the door ignored Harry, allowing Harry to enter the palace easily.
Unlike the splendor outside, the palace was dark inside, with only two oil lamps providing weak firelight.
And through the firelight, Harry could even see the thick dust accumulated on the ground and the spiders crawling on the cracked walls.
This place simply cannot be described as dilapidated.
But Harry was not surprised by this. He even took it for granted. After all, in his impression, this was what a prison should be like.
Walking straight ahead along the path illuminated by the oil lamp, Harry saw a stairway going down diagonally. He continued walking down the rock wall for a while, and finally the time became brighter in front of Harry.
However, this brightness is also limited, because the source of these lights is an ancient magic lamp. Judging from the dimness of the light, this magic lamp has been lighting continuously for at least 30 years.
And what this magic lamp shines on is a broken stone tablet engraved with Latin characters.
Since a large number of spells are written in Latin, Harry is still familiar with this kind of writing.
But it was obvious that Harry was not a serious and studious student, and some of the handwriting on the stone tablet was very faded, so he could only read roughly the words on the stone tablet.
Harry stepped forward and carefully read the words on it, only to realize that it was actually a prayer.
The content was probably praising a god or saint named Uranus, and claiming that he and other believers had collected enough sacrifices to pray for Uranus to give him another gift.
Harry was confused when he read this prayer. In his limited reading, there had never been any god or saint named Uranus.
After hearing the general meaning of Harry’s translation, Death Cloak clicked his tongue twice and sighed:
‘Human beings are really greedy creatures! ’
“Do you know what’s going on?”
‘Isn’t it already obvious? ’ Death Cloak said, ‘The wizards once obtained unimaginable benefits from the man named Uranus through sacrifices, and then they tried to do it again with the same sacrifices. ’
Harry thought for a while and felt that what the Death Cloak said made some sense, so he continued to ask:
“Then what sacrifice are they talking about?”
Harry’s expression was a little ugly when he said this. When he talked about sacrifices, he would think of those bloody scenes recorded in Muggle history.
When Death Cloak heard this, he laughed strangely and said:
‘They should have hidden all the sacrifices inside. Wouldn’t you know if you go in and take a look? ’
After saying that, the Death Cloak returned to silence and refused to come out no matter how much Harry called.
Seeing this, Harry had no choice but to walk around the stone monument and continue walking inside.
The space behind the stone tablet suddenly opened up, and this space seemed to have a hole connecting it to the outside, so the air quality was much better.
Although there is still a strange musty smell unique to the old basement, it is still much better than the earthy smell in the previous stairway.
It’s just that the light here is still dim. With the faint light, Harry can only see several large or small rooms scattered in this huge space. These rooms have different shapes, but through Harry almost immediately regarded the prisons that Death’s Cloak had spoken of as cells.
On the wide walkway outside these cells, there were several tall and thin figures walking slowly. Harry got a little closer and was surprised to find that these people looked like the triplets who had appeared in the secret realm of the Freemasons. The old man is exactly the same!
But unlike the old triplets, the white robes worn by these people in front of them seemed to have not been cleaned or replaced for a long time. They looked gray and shabby, and their eyes were also dull. The walking route has always been fixed and repeated. This behavior is as if they are all robots with a predetermined level!
Harry carefully avoided the patrol route of the old men in white robes, came to the door of a spherical cell, and looked in through an open window on the surface.
The inside of the cell is also spherical and looks very smooth.
A dozen dark-blue-skinned weirdos with small eyes were crawling towards the door with their hands down, but the wall was too smooth, and every time they climbed to the middle, they would slide to the bottom of the ball again.
They even tried building ladders to escape, but their numbers were too small and they couldn’t escape even using this method.
And in the gap between them crawling, Harry keenly discovered that there was a box at the bottom of the spherical cell. There was a big bright red button on the box, which made it look like a box for Explosive device for mine blasting.
The moment he saw the box, Harry instantly understood its identity – a mysterious object.
He looked back at the cells scattered behind him, and couldn’t help but get goosebumps all over his body.
If he guessed correctly, those cells should all contain mysterious objects.
At the same time, he also understood the meaning of the sacrifice.
It turned out that the sacrifice mentioned on the stone tablet was not the blood sacrifice he imagined, but a mysterious object!
What kind of being would use a mysterious object as a sacrifice to himself? ?
Harry was deeply shocked.
But at this time, the voice of the Death Cloak came through.
‘Ah, Mr. Mission Must Be Fulfilled, old friend. ’
The voice of the Death Cloak had a nostalgic sound to it, which brought Harry back to his senses.
But at this moment, he had no time to worry about why the Death Cloak knew the name of the mysterious object, because the blue weirdos in the spherical cell had already discovered Harry, and were all staring at him with their little black eyes. Looking at Harry.
“Brothers, am I right? That’s a human being.”
“Probably not, I saw it too!”
“Humanity!”
“Come down! We’re going to save the world!”
…
Hearing the voices of the blue monsters below, Harry’s expression changed. He looked at the old men in white robes who were attracted by the voices, and instinctively hid in the shadows of the cell.
The old man in white robe obviously did not have the ability to break the concealment. After searching and finding nothing, he returned to his patrol route again.
Harry breathed a sigh of relief and asked his question.
“Why do you know these guys? What are they?”
‘I thought you could guess it, Harry. I’ve been locked up here before, so it’s normal to know a few old acquaintances. ’ Death Cloak said, ‘As for them, they are Mr. Mission Must Fulfill. Do you see that red button box? As long as you press as many times as you want, there will be as many mission-defining gentlemen as you want. Then say your request, and Mr. Mission Bida will help you fulfill your wish. ’
Harry frowned upon hearing this. According to what the Death Cloak said, this seemed to be a wishing machine.
Shouldn’t a mysterious object like this be used as a tool by those in white robes? How could he be locked up?
The Death Cloak seemed to see Harry’s doubts and continued:
‘Mr. Mission Must Be Not as good as you think. First of all, their capabilities are limited, and they cannot complete many tasks at all. Second, the way they complete their work is also completely uncontrollable.
For example, if you ask him to help you get a cup, he may help you get one from the living room, or he may buy one, or break into your neighbor’s house to grab one.
There’s a different way of getting the job done, which means they’re likely to have very bad negative consequences, you know?
Of course, there is the worst case scenario.
As for why they are locked up here now.
Can’t you see this?
They are out of control!
Someone gave them a mission that they can never complete!
And the people who placed the mission themselves were dead and unable to complete the mission, so they could only use various extreme methods to try to complete the mission! ’
Harry nodded as he thought about it, he had basically figured it out.
At this time, the calls in the cell gradually became quieter. Harry listened curiously and heard the blue weirdos inside still complaining softly.
“Damn guy! I really want to kill him!”
“Save the world! How did that bastard come up with such a mission!?”
“I give up, come on.”
…
Listening to the sounds underground, Harry lowered his head in thought.
He thought he might already know what the other party’s mission was.
Save the world, this person who put forward the task is really evil!
At the same time, he also understood why these guys were attracted by the relationship. According to what Death Cloak said before, these guys would make many extreme attempts when they encounter tasks that cannot be completed.
And it is very likely that it will include some things that will have a very bad impact on the world.
Harry pursed his lips and had an idea.
He took out the game console that Mike had given him back then from his seamless stretch pocket, and carefully threw it into the cell through the window.
“Ah! Who is littering!”
As an angry roar came, Harry slowly poked his head out and said to the angry blue monsters below:
“Perhaps I can help you complete your mission.”
The blue weirdos were stunned. They looked at each other, and they all looked confused.
And Harry continued:
“Did you see what I threw in? It’s a game console. There is a game called Final Fantasy in it, and the plot is about saving the world. Maybe you can’t save the real world in front of you, but at least, you can save the game world. .”
Hearing this, the blue monsters began to look at the game console with intense eyes.
And the Death Cloak let out strange screams of exclamation!
…
At the same time, in the office of the Minister of Magic of the United States, Mike was frowning at a document in front of him.
This is a document just sent by Penello, which tells about a series of strange changes in the Ministry of Magic in other countries.
For example, they began to consciously build up troops around the country, or they began to prohibit business transactions between domestic companies and enterprises in the wizarding world of the country…
These actions undoubtedly reminded Mike of a terrible fact – they were going to war against themselves!
Mike took a deep breath, stood up and looked towards the cloudless scenery outside the window.
He had already known that the International Magic Federation would never give up after being tricked by him, but he did not expect that the other party’s revenge would come so quickly and violently.
But will things really go as smoothly as they thought?
The corners of Mike’s mouth slowly rose. Since the other person wanted to bite him whole and swallow him whole, he had to be prepared to break a few big teeth!
Mike, as the most powerful legendary wizard of this generation, is not a vegetarian!
With this thought in mind, Mike suddenly turned his head, looked at Penello and said:
“Inform all departments and start preparing for war! At the same time, let the Department of International Affairs and Cooperation warn those Ministry of Magic who intend to harm us, let them know what will happen if they do not cooperate with us! Then notify the Daily Prophet and others Media, let them fully cooperate with us in the near future to build momentum and control public opinion!”
Mike said firmly, which made Penelo, who was still worried, regain some energy.
She stared at Mike’s tall figure and was stunned for a moment before saying firmly:
“yes!”
