Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

"You mean we should just retrace Claremont's path into the base? That's a good idea, but what about the other two sectors? If our guess is correct, the other two bases shouldn't have direct access routes to the inside," Hogg asked, puzzled.

"Have you been staring at the monitors so much that you've gone silly?" Anduin gave Hogg a knowing look. "Now that we can penetrate the core hub, we can naturally crack the barrier by studying the protective arrays there. I think I have that much confidence."

"Uh…" Hogg scratched his head awkwardly upon hearing this. How could he have forgotten? The configuration of these three breeding sectors is basically the same. With the information on the core array of Sector One, quietly breaking through the other two would be a piece of cake.

Once he understood, Hogg revealed an excited expression. "In that case, when do we move? I want to lead the charge!"

"No rush, the preparations aren't complete yet. Have you figured out how to settle these hundreds of people and that large group of magical creatures? What we should prioritize now is preparation, and we need to quickly figure out the safety of that passage." Anduin stood up as he said this.

"Sir, are you planning to scout the way now?" Hogg, who was very familiar with Anduin, quickly asked.

"That's right, this is the best time. While Claremont has just returned to the sector, it's actually safer to sneak into his black market now, after all, the shielding magic in the sector doesn't discriminate between friend and foe."

"Even if I accidentally trigger some alarm in the opponent's secret room or that warehouse, as long as the intensity isn't too strong, it won't be transmitted into the sector," Anduin stated his plan.

"Brilliant." Hogg nodded as if suddenly enlightened upon hearing this. "Use his inconvenient communication within the sector to walk Claremont's path. But are you planning to enter the sector along the way?"

"I'll see what the situation is when I get there. You pay attention to Claremont's and Golden Flying Shuttle's movements, and contact me promptly if anything unusual happens."

With that, Anduin disappeared in a swirl of Apparition.

When he reappeared, he was already at the location of Claremont's black market.

However, since it was still daytime, the black market hadn't started operating yet. There were only a few scattered wizards in the manor. These people didn't know if they were patrolling or just wandering around. In any case, discipline wasn't great. After all, this wasn't a completely closed place like the sector, and their duty was just to maintain order.

Seeing this, Anduin didn't hesitate and immediately cast a Disillusionment Charm on himself, smoothly finding Claremont's office.

This office did have some basic warning magic set up, but to Anduin, it was practically non-existent. He broke in without much effort, and after casting a silencing charm on the room, he directly opened the door to that secret room.

"As expected, this secret room has multiple warning spells set up. If Claremont wasn't in the sector right now, he might have been alarmed."

Anduin was now hiding in front of that secret room, carefully probing with detection equipment, and also figured out the internal structure.

Without much effort, Anduin found a way to bypass these protective spells and successfully entered the secret room.

At this time, Anduin didn't rush to study the fireplace, but instead focused his attention on that black mirror.

This item can combine the functions of communication and transmission, which aroused Anduin's interest from the beginning, so he took the opportunity to touch it.

However, for safety's sake, Anduin didn't risk uncovering the velvet cloth covering it. Although it only appeared last time after Claremont and Golden Flying Shuttle initiated the signal, this black mirror has a way to directly transfer Golden Flying Shuttle here after all.

Anduin carefully examined the side frame and back of the mirror with a magnifying glass-style detector, and checked the mirror surface again after uncovering a corner of the velvet cloth.

After a simple inspection, he found that the craftsmanship of this full-length mirror was also very superb, and the materials used were also very expensive. Anduin was very sure that at least two ounces of refined mithril were added to this mirror.

But unfortunately, the transmission principle here is still similar to the Floo Network, which means its radiation range will not be too large.

"No wonder Golden Flying Shuttle only uses it for communication instead of smuggling and transportation, it turns out it's just a flashy appearance."

That's right, this magically effective full-length mirror is just a device with average cost performance in Anduin's eyes. Its range of action doesn't even exceed two hundred kilometers, and it can't even reach foreign countries.

"But if I enter reversely along this full-length mirror, can I follow the vine and find Golden Flying Shuttle? This guy is shrouded in团团mist, and I still can't accurately lock his position."

Anduin looked at the full-length mirror in front of him and pondered. He has discovered more than once that Golden Flying Shuttle can appear in more than two places at the same time.

He has been very wary of the opponent's method of being able to split himself, and he doesn't even know if Minister Pete, whom he has been tracking, is the person himself.

However, clone?

The inspiration that suddenly flashed in his mind made Anduin's eyes light up, as if he had grasped something key. "Clone technique? Is there really such a magical spell in this world? This is a bit incredible."

Anduin shook his head helplessly. Now is not the time to think about these things. The purpose of his trip is to determine whether the passage into the sector is safe.

As for what secrets Golden Flying Shuttle has and what is behind this black mirror, these are things to consider in the future. After distinguishing the priorities, Anduin leaned back against the fireplace next to him.

After some inspection, Anduin determined that there was nothing abnormal about this fireplace, so he followed Claremont's method and teleported to the warehouse full of sundries.

The location of this warehouse is also underground. Anduin circled around several times without finding the door. Although there were no powerful warning spells set up here, there were also Anti-Apparition Charms, so there was no way to get here except through that fireplace.

"But since this is underground, the Penetration Charm should be useful," Anduin pondered in his heart, and then personally tried it, and found that drilling into the ground was very smooth.

"In that case, when the official action is taken later, there is no need to bother to make a trip to the black market. I can record the actual location here, and then use the Penetration Charm to break in directly."

Anduin nodded secretly in his heart. There is a black mirror in that secret room that Golden Flying Shuttle can pass through. Just in case, it's better not to enter here from the secret room at will.

Thinking of this, he found a corner to deploy a locator, so that this warehouse was captured.

After finishing all this, Anduin came to the Vanishing Cabinet non-stop, but he didn't open it immediately, but took out a magnifying glass like a scientist and studied it.

However, this inspection work was not so easy. The magical principles contained in the Vanishing Cabinet and the complexity of the spells were completely incomparable to that full-length mirror. Anduin didn't get any clues after studying it for a long time.

"Sure enough, it has something."

Anduin was not surprised to see this. If this alchemy equipment, which can be called endangered in the wizarding world, could be easily studied thoroughly, then it would not be almost lost.

Studying it can't be completed for a while, and he can't move it away in order not to reveal it. Anduin looked at this treasure in front of him with itching hands, and couldn't help but remain silent for a moment.

In the end, he decided to not see it and not be bothered, and directly opened the cabinet door and plunged in.

He definitely had to explore the inside of the core hub, and he was very sure that he would not trigger any alarms there.

Because in the core area of the array, such as the alchemy room, there cannot be too many sources of interference. Casting spells or setting up magical barriers in it at will may affect the transmission of the core magic flow.

Just like the alchemy room that Anduin repaired in the British Ministry of Magic, although this kind of magic interference will only temporarily block it, it can continue to be used after a little dredging.

But the core hub of Sector One supports the magic shield outside. A little mistake may expose it, so the club would not do such a risky thing if they were even a little sane.

Sure enough, Anduin's process of passing through the Vanishing Cabinet and entering the sector was exceptionally smooth.

After successfully sneaking in, Anduin was not busy exploring this spire. He knew that this could be considered the quietest place in the entire sector, and Claremont would not come over for a while.

He first took out a communication amulet and activated it, and at the same time put on a wireless earphone-like communicator on his ear.

At this time, within the sector, Xatia, who was playing with the little Thunderbird in the shed, suddenly shook, and then took out a similar prop from the tactical vest and put it on her ear.

"Sir! Are we starting the operation now? I'm not mentally prepared at all!" Xatia asked somewhat flusteredly after putting on the earphones.

She knew that the protective array here isolated the communication between the two. Now that she suddenly received Anduin's message, it proved that either the other party had cracked the array, or it meant that the other party was now in the sector.

Anduin denied upon hearing this, "The operation hasn't started yet, but I have successfully sneaked into the sector. How is the situation on your side?"

"You've already come in after only a few days? This speed is too fast." Xatia hadn't recovered from the shock at this time, and then responded to Anduin, "The situation on my side is okay. I stay with the little Thunderbird during the day, and go out for a stroll at night when I have nothing to do, but it's really too uncomfortable not being able to take a bath for several days. Sir, please rescue me quickly!"
