Chapter 105

"Let's explore the place ahead later."

Devereux walked out of a hospital room on the fifth floor with his eyes closed.

He closed the door gently.

Exhale slowly.

Originally, he thought that only the third floor required him to protect his eyes from the miserable mental attacks of those patients.

But as soon as he went up to the first room on the fifth floor.

I saw a patient's body covered with limbs of various shapes.

Those extra limbs can actually make various subtle movements.

Such as scratching, waving, or even trying to grab anything that comes close.

So Devereux has now firmly decided to close his eyes tightly when entering any room.

Find the way simply through the perception of meditation.

He took out his wand.

Cast a purifying spell on yourself.

Let the lingering weird image in your mind fade a little.

Then.

He clicked on his secret exploration panel.

[Current exploration level of the secret realm: 90.6%]

"It's strange, there's a lot of difference."

He rubbed his shoulders.

Feeling a little tired.

The entry upgrade Cardvero obtained when the exploration level reached 60% was not in a hurry to use it.

After all, the only golden entries on his body now are [Blessing of Love] and [King of Examination].

To be honest upgrading to red is for the current Devereux.

The improvement is not big.

So he wanted to wait until next week to load a golden entry.

Use this card again.

As for goals.

Currently Tonks' [Disguise Magus] and Dumbledore's [Alchemy Genius] are both within his range of choices.

Devereaux has now explored all the wards open to general patients from the first to fifth floors.

He even sneaked into some dangerous wards and treatment rooms that were forbidden to ordinary patients.

But now it seems that there should be some wards that he has not discovered or has not entered.

While Devereux was thinking.

Suddenly there was a noise from the fourth floor below.

Devereaux looked over.

Three doctors were dragging the witch who had shouted "Fox" in the waiting room into a ward in a very Muggle way.

Devereaux didn't seem to have discovered it before.

It must have been a spell.

It is difficult to detect if no one comes in or out or uses special spells.

Devereaux suddenly became interested.

Run downstairs immediately.

By the way, I added another layer of Illusion Body Curse to myself.

As he got closer, he realized that the witch had stopped shouting "Fox" at this time.

Instead he struggled desperately.

Roaring madly.

"I am Percival's man! You have no right to arrest me! You have no right!"

But it obviously didn't work.

The doctors dragged her into the room with all their strength.

The nameplate on it reads "Extremely Dangerous."

Devereaux's mouth twitched as he watched their actions.

"What about Percival, why don't you say you are Qin Shihuang or King Arthur?"

Devereux shook his head.

I looked around to make sure no one was looking this way.

Devereaux paused.

Watch that door.

At that moment.

His [Hunter] intuition was not triggered at all - which meant that there was no direct threat behind the door.

"Maybe just a regular isolation room?"

With this thought.

Devereux walked over.

Carefully, he reached for the door handle.

He planned to push the door open with the slightest movement.

Take a sneak peek inside.

However, an accident happened——

As soon as his hand touched the door handle.

The phantom body curse on his body was automatically lifted without any warning!

Devereaux only had time to be stunned for a second.

Then a doctor in a white robe immediately appeared in front of him.

Displeasure was written on his face.

"what are you doing here?"

the doctor questioned.

Devereux was stunned.

Then he forced out an awkward smile.

"Uh...lost?"

Obviously.

This reason did not satisfy the doctor.

The other party reached out and grabbed his arm.

Carry him all the way to the stairs.

"Go back to the waiting room! If you can't find your way, ask the nurse and stop wandering around!"

The doctor's tone was stern.

But apparently nothing really bothered Devereux.

"Okay, okay, I get it!"

Devereux nodded repeatedly.

Fortunately, he was not asked to go directly to his parents.

Otherwise, the matter of sneaking out to visit the hospital would be exposed.

And he probably didn't realize that he had used the Disillusionment Curse.

But it's true.

Who would have thought that someone who looked like an elementary school student could use spells that many adults couldn't master?

After experiencing this scene.

Devereux became much more cautious.

He decided not to touch the clearly marked "no entry" areas for the time being.

To avoid getting caught again.

This time he came to the fifth floor.

Although it is said that I will no longer enter those wards that are clearly guarded very strictly.

But this time, write down the addresses of these wards first.

You can explore these wards specifically the next time you come.

So Devereaux relied on the reference to the counter-spell of the Ignore Curse in Moody's [Hunter] entry.

Successfully found the "extremely dangerous" wards on the first to fourth floors.

On the fifth floor, Deveraux found that there were many more hidden wards here than on other floors.

After all, this is a ward for treating spell damage.

And in the magic world.

Damage caused by spells is undoubtedly the most common and complex.

Deveraux walked to a ward.

He found that this door was a little different from the previous ward.

It did not cast a revealing spell.

Instead, it was sealed by a powerful closing spell.

He touched the door frame with his fingers.

Feeling the power of the spell.

He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Interesting, it's sealed so tightly."

He glanced at the nameplate on the door.

[Permanent spell damage ward]

Deveraux touched his chin and felt that the name was a little familiar.

And the existence of the revealing spell was not detected at present.

[Hunter] Perception also confirmed that there was no danger immediately.

"Okay, try it!"

But Deveraux did not try to solve the powerful closing spell on the door.

The complexity of the spell was obviously beyond his ability.

Rather than wasting time and taking risks.

It would be better to take a side road.

He gently retreated to the wall.

Pressed his palm on the cold wall.

Silently chanted the Transfiguration Spell in his heart.

In a moment.

The texture of the wall began to wriggle.

Then it slowly separated to both sides.

A small door appeared.

This is the power of his [Transfiguration Spirit]!

It can be done silently and without using a wand.

Transfiguration completed!

Then Devereux opened the door and walked in.

Watching the exploration jump up by 1%.

He nodded with satisfaction.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave.

But he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a figure sitting on the bed in the corner of the room.

It was a woman.

She was sitting quietly on the bed.

Wearing slightly loose pajamas.

Her face was thin and haggard.

Her eyes looked particularly large.

As if they had lost focus.

Her hair had already turned gray.

Messy and dry.

The whole person seemed to be drained of vitality by pain.

He didn't know what he was kneading in his hands.

His fingers moved mechanically and stubbornly.

Devereux stood at the door.

He was stunned.

He felt that she looked very familiar.

But he couldn't remember where he had seen her.

So he walked closer.

He found that the person had been holding a piece of candy wrapper in his hand.

When he raised his head and saw the medical record book on the bedside table of this patient, he understood.

Why did he feel familiar with her.

[Name: Alice Longbottom]
