"Ursugh...oh, you mean Miss Geoffrey? If it's her you're looking for...unfortunately, she has already left Beauxbatons this morning."

When the Beauxbatons professor heard that the person Luna was looking for was Ursula, he actually felt a little lucky.

After all, Beauxbatons is currently at a delicate juncture where the school closure plan will be launched at any time. Now, almost all the people who can enter the campus are all their teachers, students and their related family members who have gone through numerous inspections.

In this way, in addition, Luna's arrival this time is indeed a bit unexpected, and both her behavior and words make people feel suspicious... It would be best to avoid letting her in without offending her.

.

Yes, "under the condition that she is not offended" - nowadays, the group of young wizard elites headed by Hermione have gradually become objects that most forces and individuals are unwilling to easily turn against. And

Among them, Luna was naturally included.

After hearing the professor's very polite answer, Luna immediately scratched her head and asked with some confusion:

"This morning? So...where did Ursula go?"

"Actually, it's——"

The other party was about to inform Luna of Ursula's whereabouts, and while talking, he hoped that she would leave as soon as she got the news. But who knew, his wish for Luna to leave as soon as possible came true immediately.

Well, it's just the way Luna left...it was very different from what he imagined.

At that moment, before the professor could say anything, everyone present suddenly saw something moving in Luna's coat pocket.

The next moment, Luna seemed to have been pulled hard from her waist, and she suddenly disappeared in a space contraction from her pocket. Only twenty people inside and outside the school gate were left behind.

The remaining wizards and witches stared at each other across the fence of the school gate, with question marks written all over their faces.

…

The time was approaching noon, but inside the headquarters of the International Federation of Wizards, it was still so quiet. This seemed to indicate that the trial conference announced by Ajinbad was purely a joke.

Of course, this may also be the current situation deliberately created by some people.

But then again, in fact, this situation where no one was present before the start was not all secretly caused by the German Brandt family - although the strength of their family should not be underestimated, but

It is not enough to influence the decisions of so many European magic forces.

Ultimately, what really caused this situation to happen is the current increasingly terrifying and world-shattering disaster.

Because of this disaster, Maca, Hermione, Madame Maxime, the old housekeeper of Blois, and others stepped forward several times, calling on many forces to either "unite together" or "provide support."

In particular, the Resistance Alliance led by Hermione has attracted major power groups in many Western European countries.

It must be said that Hermione and the others have indeed worked very hard, and have almost absorbed most of all the forces that are most threatened in the disaster-stricken UK into the alliance.

You must know that most of these forces originally also had parliamentary seats in the Federation. So to a certain extent, it is equivalent to taking away some of the power that could be summoned at any time from the Federation.

.

As for the other remaining countries... before the power of disaster has really come to them, they are on guard and wait and see, which is the only thing they want to do at the moment.

In today’s trial, has Ajinbad sent invitations to all those forces to observe the trial? Of course! Ajinbad has sent out many invitations, and almost all those he thought were necessary to be invited to observe the trial.

Already.

It's a pity that so far, the forces that have sent representatives to the scene are still very few. On the contrary, they are not as many as the individuals he selectively invited and the wizarding media.

But...of course, there are actually only ten or twenty minutes left before the official opening. To say that this trial will definitely start in such a shabby scene, that is not necessarily true.

After all, it can be said that except for special people like Luna and a small group of "own people" who can be personally screened and invited by Ajinbad this time, almost all of them are "smart people" who are proficient in judging the situation.

.If it is really necessary, even if the trial is coming to an end, these guys can rush over immediately and shamelessly put in the last kick.

No matter what, Akinbad is still the current president of the International Federation of Wizards, and this federation is still the most representative neutral coordination organization in the entire European magic world.

But...well! At least for Luna, how these turbulent undercurrents will eventually stir up the current water is not something worth caring about.

Even from the first step into the hall, she could already intuitively feel the smell of calculation.

"Hello, young lady, are you invited to attend the trial?"

Before she could take a few more curious glances in the hall, a receptionist who usually only sat behind the front desk stepped forward from the side and asked.

"Well?"

Luna looked away from the painting hanging on the wall not far away, paused for a moment, and then nodded.

"Yes! Bill asked me to come."

The other party is indeed the receptionist of the Federation. Although at this time, she does not know who the "Bill" in Hermione's mouth is, it does not prevent the other party from continuing:

"Then please show your invitation letter. Once confirmed, I will immediately take you to the trial venue to sit down."

"Invitation letter? Okay!"

Luna said, and immediately took out the letter from her pocket that had just "trapped" her once in front of Beauxbatons School, and then handed it to the other party more or less casually.

After carefully checking the curse mark on it, the other party handed the letter back to Luna, bowed slightly politely, stretched out his hand and said:

"Miss Luna Lovegood, please follow me this way."

Before she finished speaking, she saw the other party decisively turned around and left, walking straight towards the magic elevator. As soon as Luna saw him, she immediately trotted to catch up with him and followed him into the elevator.

"Click——"

As the fence door closed automatically, the magic elevator, which was similar to the British Ministry of Magic, immediately sank into the ground very quickly, carrying the two of them straight to the venue.
