Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

#504 - Vanishing Cabinet (asking for monthly ticket recommendation)

At this moment, in the recording device, Anduin saw Claremont finish his official duties amidst his own magic supplies before hurrying to the black market. (ba shu 69 xin)

From the black market warehouse, he used his personal space bag to load a large quantity of supplies, including a great deal of food, some alcoholic beverages, books, various daily necessities, and so on.

It seemed that in addition to managing Sector One, Claremont was also responsible for transporting essential supplies to the base.

After Xia Tiya's many days of reconnaissance within the sector, it was discovered that the wizards inside the base had to spend money to purchase various daily necessities, and the prices were considerably higher than outside.

Clearly, Claremont was very business-minded, using goods from the outside to earn the salaries of the internal staff, thereby recovering funds and saving a lot of operating costs.

After Claremont packed everything up, he went straight to his private office and opened the signal that Anduin and the others had seen once before, then directly entered the fireplace.

However, unlike ordinary wizards who shouted place names when using fireplaces, Claremont did not speak after throwing in the Floo Powder, but allowed the flames rising from the fireplace to engulf him until he disappeared.

From this, Anduin could judge that the fireplace was equipped with a single-threaded Floo Network, only leading to one place.

But when Claremont reappeared, he did not arrive directly inside the breeding base as Anduin had expected, but instead arrived at a place similar to a warehouse.

Inside, there were shelves four to five meters high everywhere, filled with various sundries and supplies, and these supplies did not seem like the shelter reserves that Anduin had seen in the basement of No. 277 Diagon Alley.

The things here could be said to be all useless garbage.

There was a large pile of damaged tables, chairs, benches, and other broken furniture, covered in dust, as well as many completely outdated discarded publications, worthless books, and so on; it was simply a garbage dump for storing杂物.

After entering, Claremont zigzagged through the large warehouse,绕到 the edge of the warehouse, and stopped in front of a dirty,尖头柜子.

Then Anduin saw Claremont open the cabinet door and钻了进去.

After he closed the cabinet door inside and quickly opened it again, the scene outside the cabinet was completely new, and he had apparently been transferred to the inside of the breeding base.

"This is… a Vanishing Cabinet?" After seeing Claremont's actions, Anduin recognized the item in front of him after a little thought, and his eyes widened, revealing a look of curiosity and desire.

"Vanishing Cabinet? What is that thing? The old guy relied on this thing to suddenly move into the sector, it's amazing," Hogg couldn't help but ask after hearing Anduin's exclamation.

"A Vanishing Cabinet is an alchemical device containing powerful space magic. It is a set of equipment consisting of two cabinets, and the two cabinets can be directly connected no matter how far apart they are, which is very magical."

"And I have never seen a real object. I saw relevant records in some rare alchemy secrets. This device was invented by an unknown wizard hundreds of years ago."

"However, due to the preciousness of the制作材料 and the complexity of the制作工艺, not many of them were流传于世 at the beginning, and with the passage of time, even the制作工艺 has not been流传下来 in the wizarding world. I thought this thing had completely绝迹, but I didn't expect to see a real object here."

Anduin was very interested in these magical alchemical creations, so he couldn't help but感慨 after seeing the real [Vanishing Cabinet].

"Claremont uses the Vanishing Cabinet to connect to the breeding base, does this mean that the other two bases of the Silver Spear also have two sets of Vanishing Cabinets that can be used?" Hogg naturally联想道.

"No…" Anduin shook his head after hearing this, "We can't make a judgment so quickly. The珍贵程度 of this device is beyond your imagination. The Silver Spear cannot have too many, and this thing may not even be配给 Claremont by the club."

"Are you saying that this set of Vanishing Cabinets belongs to Claremont himself?" Hogg歪歪脑袋 with some incomprehension.

"There is this possibility, because if the Silver Spear has such a sharp weapon as the Vanishing Cabinet, they can use it to do more things, such as… using it for smuggling!" Anduin saw the key at a glance.

"Ah? Just such a small broken cabinet, how much can it smuggle? Few of those magical animals can fit in," Hogg responded somewhat不信.

"You," Anduin glanced at Hogg speechlessly, "This is a wizarding world. If you can't塞进去 large things, don't you know how to make them smaller? Have you forgotten that you have the ability to变小 yourself?"

"Although I don't know the specific principle of the Vanishing Cabinet, and I don't know if there is a limit to its range of action, according to the records on the资料, the connecting distance of this device is almost unlimited. The Silver Spear only needs to运往 one of them to the Americas, and when they need to走私 the magical animals there, they can temporarily shrink them and pass them over."

Hogg suddenly豁然开朗 after listening to Anduin's explanation. Indeed, even if this kind of good thing cannot connect to the Americas so far, connecting to other countries in Europe is no problem.

With the Vanishing Cabinet, the走私 efficiency can be greatly increased, and there is no need to waste it in this place. You must know that directly entering the breeding base from the outside is not too much trouble as long as someone inside helps open the door.

The reason why Anduin and the others feel棘手 is just to avoid alarming the internal enemies when passing through the external防护罩.

"Then it seems that this Claremont is not completely死心塌地 to the Silver Spear. He actually私藏 such a good thing," Hogg捂住嘴 and嘿嘿一笑 after thinking of this.

"That's natural. You also heard his conversation with Golden Flying, Claremont has always been thinking about becoming a formal Silver Spear. Presumably, he私藏 this sharp weapon is also for the future after officially joining the club,大展手脚," Anduin said with a冷冷一笑.

"Huo, after listening to you, this old thing is quite有上进心. With his resources, plus this smuggling利器, if Claremont really joins the club, he might be able to晋升 to the level of长矛 in less than two years," Hogg couldn't help but高看 this old man Claremont at this time.

"Indeed, I guess this is also the reason why Golden Flying doesn't let him join the club so quickly. The不死药 supply in the Silver Spear is already紧张 enough. It would be even more麻烦 to have another mouth at this time," Anduin glanced at Claremont in the picture with a嘲弄眼神.

At this time, with the help of Claremont's perspective, Anduin was finally able to一窥 the situation inside the central尖塔.

The entire核心枢纽 is divided into upper and lower levels. The lower level is a small warehouse, which is堆放 with a lot of物资, including ordinary daily necessities and some magical animal products.

For example, Billywig虫产出的虫蜜, Fire Crab蛋 and褪下的皮, some火龙's eggshells and dragon scales, Diricawl and角驼兽's horns,罐装 of Erumpent爆炸液, etc.

Obviously, there are a lot of magical animal by-products stored here. With these产出, it should also be able to缓解 part of the sector's operating costs, and the Vanishing Cabinet is also placed in this, which is not very显眼.

After arriving at the尖塔, Claremont went to the second floor as soon as possible. This part is the core of the entire sector's法阵.

This is said to be the second floor, but you can hardly see the roof. It has a similar structure to the alchemy room of the British Ministry of Magic. The whole is a square room with a large area.

A large number of符咒 are铭刻 on the ground and the surrounding walls, and a slender stone pillar stands in the center of the room, straight up, and straight through the洞 to the top. Anduin suspects that even the尖塔's塔尖 is also a part of this stone pillar.

After arriving here, Claremont took out his wand and came to the stone pillar for routine inspection,扶着 the stone pillar from time to time to check something, and施放着 weakly fluctuating magic spells with his wand from time to time, but his视线 basically only集中 on the stone pillar,视若无睹 the magic纹 on the ground and walls.

So even Anduin looked very carefully, he could not detect too much information across the screen.

"How is it, my lord, did you find anything?" Hogg couldn't help but插嘴 and asked after seeing Anduin constantly switching back and forth this recording.

"The harvest is not very big. The stone pillar in the middle is similar to the one in the alchemy room of the British Ministry of Magic. Its function is similar to an amplifier. Claremont's inspection is just to ensure that the function in this area is normal, and to avoid断流 in the魔力传导."

Anduin shook his head somewhat无奈, "The core driving符咒 of the protection法阵 are basically铭刻 on the ground, but this guy has no intention of maintaining this part at all. I don't know if Claremont simply doesn't know about this."

"That's possible," Hogg面露思索的神色 after hearing this, "Although that guy runs a magic supplies store, he is not a professional alchemist, and the Silver Spear cannot交待 the entire core枢纽's blueprints to him. Maybe the ground符咒 are also made of advanced材料, and the quality is guaranteed so that they can放心."

"That's indeed a possibility. The Silver Spear obviously wants to打造成 Sector One into a permanent base, and it is very likely that they will spend a lot of money to get a core法阵."

Anduin 认可的点点头 to Hogg's judgment, "No wonder the strength of this法罩 is so high. I have潜入 several times in a row and failed to破解 it successfully. It seems that it is still a bit too天真 to break through from the outside, but fortunately, by chance, we discovered another通道 that can enter."
