Chapter 524 Alliance? Nonexistent! (2-in-1)

The sharp fire and powerful magic fluctuations instantly attracted the attention of the law enforcers. Seeing the large fireball that expanded to more than two meters high and rushed towards them at high speed, the four law enforcers were a little panicked.

"Enemy attack!" Fortunately, years of training came into play at this moment. Someone quickly reacted and let out a shrill cry. Others also hurriedly waved their wands to point at the incoming fireballs, building protective barriers.

"Impediment Jinx! (Obstacles)"

"Protegos! (Armor Protection)"

The flying fireball hit the magic barrier in the next second. After only resisting for a moment, the magic barrier was crushed to pieces. The orange-red fireball immediately disintegrated, and endless light and heat spread in all directions.

The two law enforcers in front were blown away and hit the pillar behind them hard, and the iron armor spells on them broke.

A law enforcer in ragged clothes vomited blood. Since the Iron Armor Curse blocked him, there was no serious problem.

But another law enforcer not far away was not so lucky. He had no time to cast a protective spell and was blown to pieces, leaving no sound.

The law enforcement officers who were still alive had no time to rejoice, because everyone knew that the danger was not over yet!

Before the smoke from the explosion completely dissipated, more than a dozen magical beams of various colors rushed in from the smoke, followed by several low wolf howls.

"Those damn werewolves should retreat quickly and tell others to come!" The leading law enforcer immediately issued a retreat order after realizing that the enemy was numerous and obviously unstoppable, and planned to use phantom to leave.

However, his movements were obviously a step slower. Ivan and the others, who had been lurking for a long time, would not let him go. A gray-black werewolf had already rushed in front of him, biting the arm of the law enforcer, interrupting His spellcasting.

Other law enforcers were also attacked to varying degrees immediately.

In just a few seconds, all four law enforcers fell to the ground, unable to put up any decent resistance.

The few merchants in the wizard market were stunned when they saw this brutal scene. They didn't even bother to pack up the items in the stalls and fled in panic.

Ivan ignored them. His goal this time was to target the wizard market and had nothing to do with these poor wizards.

"Mr. Hals, what should we do with these two people? Are we going to kill them?" Fulen and Walker each came over carrying a still-living spellcaster and asked.

"Just take care of them first!" Ivan glanced at the two law enforcers who had lost their fighting ability and waved his hands.

If possible, he doesn't want to kill anyone. There are already very few wizards in the magic world, not to mention that these law enforcers are all on commission and may not have any loyalty to the Nott family. It is better to wait until they are tortured and confirmed in the future. Disposal.

Just as Ivan was thinking this, there was an explosion in the distance, accompanied by some shouts of killing. Ivan immediately understood that Asia and Docter had taken action.

"Leave four people to guard, and the rest of you will follow me in!" Ivan did not dare to delay any longer, and immediately ordered.

In order to prevent subsequent support from the other party and avoid being trapped in the urn to catch turtles, it is necessary to ensure that the exit is unobstructed.

Fulen and others nodded. This was what they had discussed before, so they quickly arranged the candidates to stay. The remaining nine wizards followed Ivan and rushed into the wizard market.

After successfully knocking out the two guards inside, Ivan successfully arrived at a large room and followed the instructions on the map to turn an oil lamp placed nearby.

Kakaka

A wall at the rear cracked open, shaking to make way for a passage that was very narrow and could only allow two people to walk side by side.

The end of the passage looks like a hall, but due to the limited field of vision, it is impossible to see the whole picture, and it is not sure that there is no one guarding it.

Ivan grabbed a piece of brick and without any hesitation, he immediately rushed in, followed closely by Fulen and others.

When they were halfway there, six heavily armed dark wizards suddenly appeared at the end of the deserted passage. Apparently they had heard the explosion outside and had deliberately ambush here.

If they were in a more open area, these dark wizards would not have time to run away and would never come to die. But it was different now. In this narrow terrain, Ivan and others had no way to escape.

"Reducto! (Shattered to pieces)"

"Avada Kedavra"

"Incendio! (Fire is blazing)"

Colorful magic beams struck one after another, including several green rays of light that made people's hair explode.

The faces of Fulen and others changed suddenly, and they were in a dilemma for a while. The obstacle curse and armor curse they cast could not block the killing curse.

Ivan calmly threw out the bricks in his hand and pointed his wand.

Under the combined action of the Enlargement Curse and the Transformation Curse, the brick expanded rapidly, and its surface gradually gained a metallic luster, standing in front of you like a wall.

boom!

Several magic spells collided with the masonry wall. The latter was a magical creation after all and was not as hard as a real wall. It exploded immediately, and countless fragments flew in all directions.

"Oppugno! (Thousands of bullets fired)"

All this was naturally expected by Ivan. He waved his wand again, and all the masonry fragments were pulled and fell towards the dark wizards at the end of the passage.

Fulen and others behind Ivan were not idle either. They all took out their wands and fought back, venting their anger.

Faced with such a large-scale magic attack, the dark wizards, who had no spirit of sacrifice, chose to give in after the first wave of attacks failed and left the passage to avoid the attack, but this also meant that they lost the first wave of attacks. A second chance to take action!

Ivan, who was extremely fast, crossed a distance of more than ten meters and entered the hall in just two seconds.

The tables, chairs and walls in front of them were all pockmarked by a large number of broken rocks and bricks. A total of six dark wizards had already traveled halfway in these two seconds.

A dark wizard who didn't have time to run turned around and saw Ivan who suddenly broke in, and waved his wand without saying anything.

"Diffindo! (Split into pieces)"

The red beam hit Ivan, then returned the same way, knocking him away.

Ivan slowly added a stun spell to knock out the dark wizard.

At the same time, Fulen and others who had been following Ivan rushed in, blasted several magic spells, and the remaining two dark wizards fell to the ground miserably.

Ivan turned his head and glanced. He originally wanted them to capture him alive as much as possible, but after thinking about it carefully, he shut his mouth. Asking Fulen and the others to keep their hands in such a fierce battle would be irresponsible for their lives!

"There are two roads ahead. According to the previous plan, we will split up. Fulen, you are responsible for taking some people to search on the left!" Ivan took out the map and looked at it. After confirming again that the location of the conference room was on the right, he faced Flan said.

"Yes, Lord Hals." Fulen had already transformed into the form of a werewolf. His huge and ferocious head paused, and then he led four of his men and ran towards the passage on the left.

Ivan did not act immediately. He stretched out his right hand and tapped the wand on a cabinet in the hall. Under the influence of magic power, the wooden cabinet quickly softened and stretched into a huge giant. python.

All the passages in the secret room below are very narrow. Once blocked, it is almost impossible to avoid the other party's magic, so he needs a human shield large enough to resist these magics for him.

Although Ivan can also turn himself into a basilisk and kill everyone, this may be dangerous. What if he accidentally hits the Avada Kedavra in front?

He didn't want to experience for himself whether the basilisk's anti-magic skin could resist the killing curse!

"Act now!" Ivan watched the giant snake snaking into the passage, summoned his patron saint as insurance, and finally gave the action order.

A few minutes ago, in the underground conference room,

Six wizards were sitting around a mahogany round table, discussing intensely.

"We have lost too many manpower in the past few months, and the wizard market is getting deserted day by day. We cannot continue like this!"

"Then what should we do? Surrender and admit defeat? Do you think the other party will let us go at this point?"

"Yes! We must not admit defeat. If we bow to those half-bloods and Muggles, will we lose face? We can definitely recruit more people, or seek help from the Ministry of Magic."

Everyone was talking about it, and it was full of gunpowder.

Just by looking at the form, everyone knows that they are at an absolute disadvantage. The opponent is pressing forward step by step, and failure is only a matter of time.

According to their usual style, they should start compromise negotiations at this time, and test whether they can make the other party stop targeting the wizard market by giving in some benefits. After all, if they continue to fight like this, their losses will only be greater.

But the problem is that this time is different from the past. Their enemies are not equal. They are not a pure-blood wizard family, but a magic shop owner in Knockturn Alley. They really can't bear to compromise with such a lowly half-blood who has no reputation.

When the argument gradually reached a stalemate, one of the wizards in black robes turned to look at Nott, who had never spoken, and made some suggestions.

"Old Nott, isn't the Executive Director of the Ministry of Magic your good friend? If the Ministry of Magic is willing to intervene, then the matter will be easier to handle."

"How can it be that easy? The Ministry of Magic has no time to pay attention to us now." Nott shook his head and sighed.

With his identity, he naturally knows much more information than ordinary wizards. Azkaban seems to have lost a very important fugitive recently, and a large number of Aurors have been secretly dispatched.

Coupled with the recent dementor riots, the executive director was going crazy with worry. He seemed to have suddenly aged several years when they last met. How could he be in the mood to deal with this mess that happened in Knockturn Alley.

And Old Nott knew very well that in the eyes of many senior officials of the Ministry of Magic, none of the wizards in Knockturn Alley was a good person. If a group of them died fighting for territory, it would be too late for them to applaud.

Because this often means that there will be a lot less vicious things in the magic world in the next period of time.

Listening to Nott's words, everyone present fell into a brief silence. Without the intervention of the Ministry of Magic, it would be a fool's errand to make the other party settle down.

The pudgy witch sitting in the corner hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and suggested.

"I feel that Asia is not just trying to compete for the wizard market. In the past few months, she has not only been attacking our wizard market, she must have a bigger plot! If you can convince the executive director of this, , then the Ministry of Magic will never let it go!"

"You want those people to believe that a magic shop owner in Knockturn Alley will threaten their rule? How difficult!" Old Rozier shook his head with a sneer, pouring cold water on everyone.

"No, we can collect or fabricate some evidence. It's enough to make the people at the Ministry of Magic realize that they have gathered many dark wizards with evil intentions!" the pudgy witch said fiercely.

"Then let's vote as you say. If more than half of the people agree, we will start implementing it!" Nott tapped his index finger on the table. After hesitating for a while, he finally made a decision.

"Seconded!"

Several other wizards had no objections and agreed, because this was the last resort. If that didn't work, they could only consider surrender or compromise.

Old Rozier looked around at everyone, pretending to be sad and slowly nodded in agreement, but deep down he couldn't help but sigh. It was too late to seek help from the Ministry of Magic now.

I'm afraid none of them can get out of here today

But while sighing, old Rozier was also happy that he was on the side of the winner, and this time not only did nothing happen, but he actually achieved merit!

As for the psychological pressure caused by betraying an ally?

nonexistent!

Old Rozier knew very well that if there were enough benefits, anyone in front of him would betray him without hesitation. The so-called alliance was just a joke.

boom

Just when old Rozier was thinking this, there suddenly came some violent noises above them, a faint explosion could be heard, and the tables and chairs in the conference room shook crazily.

"What's wrong? What happened?" The short, fat witch looked panicked and held on to the table to prevent herself from falling.

"Looking at the noise, someone may be calling in from outside!" Nott's face was very ugly. He squinted and scanned the people in the conference room one by one.

"What?! How could it be such a coincidence?" Old Rozier frowned, with a look of astonishment on his face.

Several other people also looked at each other, with an inexplicable light shining in their eyes. But only they knew about the secret meeting held here today.
