Hogwarts starts with stealing power
Chapter 108: Windmill Town Trapped in the Old Cycle
"You should be the newcomers to this mission." Several more flying broomsticks fell from the sky. Lin Xia looked over and saw that the faces of those people had some vicissitudes of life, and they did not look like students who had come out of the academy.
Lin Xia nodded to Draco and took the initiative to introduce her name.
Rosen, the leader, turned to Cedric and asked, "It seems like you guys know each other?"
Cedric nodded: "They are my juniors from the same college."
"Same school?" Rosen was a little surprised, "I remember you are from Hufflepuff, so these two are also from Hufflepuff?"
"Wow!" Without waiting for Cedric to answer, the others said happily: "Hufflepuff is so successful. At such a young age, he actually got the top student badge and came to do the task!"
Rosen suddenly thought of something, and his pupils opened slightly: "Wait a minute, you two little wizards look so young, and Hogwarts recently had outstanding first-year students, and two of them appeared in a row, shouldn't you? Could it be those two top students?"
Lin Xia said: "If you are referring to the first grade, that should be us."
The other wizards were also confused.
"The top student in first grade? The one who invented the magnetic wand?"
"New and improved scabies potion?"
"And what kind of youth facial soap is there?"
"Damn it, it's you two???"
A wizard immediately quit: "No, I want to protest. How can Hogwarts send such excellent research talents to do dangerous tasks?"
Another broomstick fell from the sky. She had a mature face and bright red hair, like a dazzling fire.
She was quite dignified in this group of people, and when she came, everyone fell silent.
She first glanced at all the wizards, and then focused on the two young wizards, Lin Xia and Draco.
She nodded to them: "Hello, I am the captain of the team this time. My name is Mia Ewing. You can call me Mia."
She pointed to the person who was leading the team before: "This is the vice-captain of the team, Rosen. If you can't find me, you can communicate with him."
Mia didn't know what she thought of, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I also studied in Hufflepuff College before."
Lin Xia and Draco looked at each other and probably reacted.
Presumably this person is an "acquaintance" that the professor secretly arranged for them.
"Captain, these two little wizards are too young, and they are still fighting talents. Otherwise, we will still..."
Mia interrupted: "Don't underestimate them. This time they not only have to complete the task of guiding newcomers, but also secretly conduct an assessment of combat talents. If Hogwarts is not sure about them, it is impossible to allow them to participate in combat assessments." "
As soon as she said this, no one in the team spoke.
It seems that in this team, Mia's majesty is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
After making sure that everyone was present, Mia said resolutely: "Let's go, let's set up camp outside the town for observation."
Several dark tents have been erected outside the gate of the town.
Opening the tent and walking in, the room felt as warm as spring, with flames floating in the air, exuding warmth.
Only then did Mia tell them about the requirements of this mission.
"This town is called Windmill Town. An abnormality was discovered a month ago. People in the town submit articles to WWN (Wizard Wireless Network) every day, asking them to broadcast the daily weather forecast on their exclusive channel, but WWN has not adopted it.
This anomaly was discovered by WWN staff. People who first started broadcasting thought that the town had finally given up on weather forecasting, but some employees felt that something was not right. After all, Windmill Town was obviously very persistent about this. "
Rosen also walked in and took over the conversation: "An internal employee checked the listening situation of Windmill Town and found that they had not received any signal from Windmill Town for a while.
Before that, there were thousands of reception signals coming from Windmill Town every day. The staff realized something was wrong and reported it to the Ministry of Magic. After that, some strange things happened in Windmill Town. "
Lin Xia asked curiously: "Something strange?"
"Well, obviously the calls of relatives and friends living in Windmill Town can be answered, but they only answer the phone on Tuesdays, and not at other times."
Draco asked curiously: "Do you know the reason for this?"
Mia nodded: "It has already been investigated, because every Tuesday is the day when relatives and that family have regular phone calls, and they talk about home affairs.
After we discovered the anomaly in Windmill Town, we called on people who were working outside to make calls to see if we could find out anything. As a result, everyone in Windmill Town only answered the phone on the fixed days that had been previously arranged. "
Lin Xia pondered for a while and then asked: "Are there any other abnormalities?"
"Yes, there are many." Mia looked serious. "You can observe through the telescope that people in Windmill Town go out to work every day and produce something. They can even send people out to do business with other towns."
"But," she changed her words, "They only talked about what they should talk about, topics they didn't usually talk about, and they didn't answer any of them. It was like they were stuck in a past loop."
"The mission of the two young wizards is to conduct reconnaissance missions. If they find anything unusual in the town, they will tell us immediately."
Mia arranged for Lin Xia and Draco, and then turned to discuss with other team members what methods to take after entering the town.
Neither Lin Xia nor Draco felt ignored.
Both of them are too weak. It would be weird to discuss with them about what method to use.
Lin Xia walked out of the tent and looked at the town with many huge windmills not far away, with a trace of thought in his eyes.
Falling into the cycle of the past is just Mia's guess, which is not necessarily accurate.
After hearing what Mia said, Lin Xia had another guess.
Various phenomena show that the people in the town are living according to their past behavior habits. Is this another kind of manipulation?
Manipulating humans does not necessarily mean that humans must complete something.
Letting humans live in accordance with the rules and not being discovered by others is also a kind of manipulation.
And this kind of manipulation often makes others' "non-abnormality" cover up another "abnormality".
If it is really related to manipulation, then there is a very obvious problem-
That is, the controller behind the manipulation of these people cannot understand the living habits of wizards at all.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have made so many mistakes: not answering the phone when it rang, turning on the radio but not adjusting the channel, only talking about past topics and not answering new questions...
While thinking, the scale of fate in Lin Xia's mind suddenly turned slightly and stopped at the "looking for qi" column that had never appeared before.
A different scene suddenly appeared in her eyes. The sky in the town became gray, forming a sharp contrast with the bright colors around.
In the town, there were also various dark and unlucky auras, which could be regarded as dead air.
In some places, the dead air was not so heavy, and in some places, the dead air was as thick as a piece of black ink.
Lin Xia made a prompt decision and walked to the highest point, taking out the Nimbus 2000 given by Draco from the ring.
Mia noticed her behavior and frowned and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Lin Xia said, "I know some oriental feng shui divination, and I plan to fly to a high place to take a closer look at the terrain of Windmill Town."
Mia nodded quickly and said, "Then go ahead, be safe, and remember not to fly above Windmill Town, the wizards inside will react violently."
"Got it."
Taking advantage of the fact that the ability to "see the air" has not disappeared, Lin Xia flew directly to the small hill where she had been before, which was a good observation point.
The speed of the Light Wheel 2000 is very fast. With her full speed, she reached her destination in a few seconds.
Lin Xia carefully observed Windmill Town.
Although the death energy is unevenly distributed, it can still be seen that the concentration is increasing in sequence.
The death energy outside the town is the lightest, and the concentration increases as you go in.
But the center circle of this town is not set up in the center, but to the right.
It is surrounded by a mass of dark ink, but there is a small white shop inside.
This white is the most conspicuous, and it is obviously where the vitality is. In addition, various white spots were scattered in some places of the town, and the colors were also light and heavy.
After a while, the "looking qi" disappeared, and Lin Xia recalled it again, and she had memorized all the scenes she saw.
She controlled the flying broom and returned to the tent.
Mia immediately asked: "How is it, did you find anything?"
Lin Xia said nonsense: "Really."
The other wizards were very surprised when he said this.
No way, is the Feng Shui of the East really so magical?
Lin Xia said: "It's just a little discovery. I saw a place with outstanding people and beautiful scenery. Generally speaking, that place has good Feng Shui and a large floating population. It is good for business or residential use."
Mia looked at Rosen: "Where is our map, come and get it!"
Rosen woke up from a dream and quickly took out the map.
Lin Xia pointed to the place with strong vitality.
Mia suddenly realized: "So it's this place, then you are right, this is the central prosperous area of Windmill Town, with the largest flow of people."
She asked with a burning gaze: "Besides this, what else did you see?"
Lin Xia shook her head. Things like life and death are not easy to explain to others, and they can't be proved. She can only find an opportunity to make them pay attention to this place.
Mia arranged the tasks and emphasized to Lin Xia and Draco again: "You go in this time mainly for investigation. Tell us what you think is wrong. Don't move without our permission.
Including your transformed objects, you must move according to the territory we have marked, don't walk around casually. This town is dangerous and not dangerous, provided that you don't anger the wizards inside."
Lin Xia and Draco nodded, repeatedly saying that they knew.
The group entered the town.
Windmill Town is not big or small, with a population of thousands of people. Most of them work in office buildings, but there are also people who go out shopping during the day.
Lin Xia and Draco put on the clothes Mia had prepared for them in advance and blended in with the local residents.
Two young and beautiful sisters walked hand in hand on the street and passed by Lin Xia. They were chatting with a cheerful smile.
"The clothes you just saw are so beautiful, don't you want to buy them?"
"Not yet, I haven't saved enough money yet!"
