Chapter 2121 Black Cage

"... How long do we have to go? Where is the venue of the trial meeting?"

"The venue is on the basement level."

"Then what floor are we on now?"

"Five floors underground, which is the last floor underground."

The conversation between Luna and the receptionist is echoing faintly in this deserted corridor, and has been transmitted to the deeper part of the front.

And just as the receptionist witch said, this is the underground part of the headquarters building of the International Federation of Wizards, and it is also the deepest layer underground. Not to mention that there seems to be no one here now, in fact, even in the past, when people from the Ministry of Magic of various countries came to deal with official business every day, the place was usually idle for several months without anyone coming down.

After all, now...at least before the current disaster, the two deepest underground floors have not had the chance to play their true purpose for a long time.

However, it is worth mentioning that this long underground corridor is unexpectedly not as dark and gloomy as other similar places. Under the illumination of a magic shade lamp every short distance, this long corridor with white walls is still quite bright.

In addition, the corridors seem to be under the spell of self-cleaning. Although they are inevitably a bit old, they are spotless everywhere, and people will not feel the slightest discomfort when walking in them.

"The fifth basement?" Luna heard the receptionist walking in front say this, and couldn't help but glance at the back of the other person, "Oh...Mr. Aginbad asked you to bring me here ?”

As soon as Luna said these words, the receptionist stopped for a while, and subconsciously turned her head to look at her. Then she continued to turn around and walk forward, while responding:

"Yes, Mr. President wants me to take you, Miss Lovegood, to meet one... oh no, 'two' people before the trial officially begins."

"Okay!" Luna nodded after hearing that.

Obviously, she wasn't worried at all that the other party would take her to any dangerous place, because she could feel that the receptionist didn't have any malice towards her.

Not long after, the two stayed along the promenade and passed a series of closed silver-gray metal doors. The receptionist who was leading the way finally stopped in front of another door. She turned her head and glanced at Luna again, then said softly:

"Miss Lovegood, please wait a moment.

"

"Well."

Luna nodded, and then responded. But at the moment when the other party turned around and took out his wand and was about to open the door, I don't know if it was a coincidence, then he heard a clanging sound from inside the door.

Because there is a silver metal door separating it, and the door seems to be relatively thick, so the sound is actually not too loud. It's just that the corridor is already very quiet, so the sound is still exceptionally clear.

"what?"

All of a sudden, Luna let out a light snort as if realizing something, and the receptionist involuntarily stopped casting a spell to open the door. And almost at the same time, in the shadow behind Luna, a black sharp blade unexpectedly protruded out without a sound.

Luna, who noticed that the black blade was floating, quickly waved her hand at the shadow, which made Shabo retract the sharp blade again.

Then, she heard the receptionist in front of the door say again:

"By the way...Miss Lovegood, I think I have to remind you first. There is currently a rather special living corpse locked inside, although Mr. Aginbad has had people restrain it as much as possible. Its actions, but you must be careful where you should be careful."

"Well, I know." Luna immediately nodded again after hearing this, "But... who is that living corpse? Why do I seem to... feel a little familiar?"

"This—" the receptionist paused hesitantly, "Anyway, you'll find out when I open the door."

Before she finished speaking, she finally swiped the wand back and forth in front of the gate a few times, and finally pulled it lightly. The next moment, with a soft "click", the silver door slowly opened automatically.

"Bang!"

At the same time as the door was opened, there was another knocking sound from inside. This time without the thick door panel blocking, the sound suddenly became much louder, and it even made people feel a little deafening.

It's just that Luna obviously has no time to care about this little movement at the moment.

"Madame Maxime?"

The space inside is not too big, and because there are not too many extra furnishings to obstruct the eyes, you can see the bottom at a glance just by standing at the door. The moment she opened the door, Luna saw a small black cage floating in the deepest part of the room.

And just below the cage, there is a pool that is only a little bigger than the cage - it is definitely impossible to see how deep the pool is with the eyes alone, because the water in the pool is not clear. water, but a strange liquid like mercury.

Under the influence of magic, this silvery liquid seemed to have a life of its own, and was automatically flowing backwards from the pool into the air. They are like strips of metal tentacles, spiraling around the cage in the middle, slowly undulating and circulating.

To be honest, the sight looked a little scary.

"clank—"

Just as Luna was watching carefully, the figure curled up in the black cage... which looked a lot like Mrs. Maxim suddenly moved again, making a loud noise. The huge force distorted the obviously strong cage, and then shook it slightly.

But at this moment, another voice suddenly sounded from the room, which immediately attracted Luna's attention.

"Miss Lovegood?"

"Ursula? Oh, so it's you... No wonder I felt as if I felt another familiar magic just now."

Yes, Luna didn't expect that Ursula, who just heard that she had left Beauxbatons not long ago, would actually come to the Federation.

Of course, if the professor at the school gate could have made it clear earlier, she probably wouldn't be so surprised now.

"Are you also invited by Mr. Aginbad?" As soon as Luna saw Ursula, she temporarily put the black cage aside, raised her feet and walked straight inside, " You don't know, I'm looking for you!"

And at the same time, the receptionist who was in charge of leading the way before also entered the room, and closed the silver-gray door behind him.

"You two, please have time to talk about the old days! Miss Grofein, after this morning, do you have any gains? You know, it is about Mrs. Maxim, her current how is the situation?"
