Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

"Where is this? Why am I here?"

"Wake up! Wake up!"

"Where's my wand? What happened to my things?"

"Damn it, who the hell locked us up in this forsaken place?"

"Help! Someone, please help me!"

Before long, the wizards and Muggles in the various cells began to awaken. Everyone was initially just confused by their current situation.

But soon, emotions such as doubt, panic, and anger gradually began to spread. As more and more people woke up, the warehouse base turned into a large marketplace, filled with noise, cries for help, and cursing.

They didn't understand what had happened, why the whole world had changed when they woke up.

Swish!

Suddenly, a row of bright lights lit up the entire warehouse base. It turned out that a magical lantern, scavenged from the park, had been installed above each cell.

In an instant, the originally dim warehouse was illuminated, and the sudden appearance of the strong light made those who had adapted to the darkness very uncomfortable, and they all shielded their eyes with their hands.

The previous noisy environment seemed to be paused by the arrival of the strong light, and suddenly became much quieter.

After everyone gradually adapted to the light in front of them, they finally saw the shocking scene before them.

It turned out that they weren't just with the people around them. In their field of vision, outside the iron bars in front of them, there was a whole area of cages similar to their rooms, all filled with people.

Among these figures, some of them knew each other and were colleagues who worked together in the same park. Some were completely unfamiliar, never seen before. Others were acquaintances they recognized or had met a few times, but they didn't remember them working in the park.

At this time, these awakened people all gathered in front of the bars, approaching the cages in front or on either side, asking questions to those they recognized with suspicion or panic.

"Harkob, do you know what's going on? Why are we here?"

"I don't know either. I only remember returning to the dormitory to rest after curfew last night. When I woke up, I was in this strange place."

These were wizards working in the same park, trying to understand the situation from each other across the cages.

"Nancy? What are you doing here? Aren't you from East Germany?" A West German witch saw an East German wizard she knew and asked in confusion.

"I don't know. I was working in a magical animal breeding park before, but I woke up here."

"What? You also work in a breeding park?"

"What do you mean, 'also'? Could it be that you are too...?"

"Yes, I also work in a magical animal park. Although it requires a continuous six-month term, the pay is very high, but my park is clearly in West Germany!"

This was a conversation between two wizards who knew each other but did not live in the same park.

Later, through everyone's mutual exchange, they slowly understood that all the people imprisoned in these cages were employees working in the breeding park, except that some people worked in different locations from themselves.

"So, does that mean everyone here is related to the magical animal breeding park?"

"Yes, I work in a park in East Germany."

"I'm in West Germany."

"I'm also in West Germany, but I've never seen you before. Could it be that there are different parks in West Germany?"

After continuous dialogue, some people also realized that there must be something wrong with the park where they worked, otherwise, how could they be brought here silently?

At this time, a wizard shouted loudly, "The reason we're here must be related to the breeding park. Does anyone know what's going on?"

Then a wizard from Park One recognized Nason in the neighboring cage, and immediately pointed at him and asked, "Nason, you're the captain of the maintenance team, do you know anything?"

"Me?" Nason had only just woken up not long ago. The Stunning Spell he received was quite powerful. Hearing the question, he looked at the other person blankly. "I don't know what's going on, but I'm different from you. I was attacked by two people wearing white masks. They suddenly rushed into the dormitory. I was on the first floor at the time and was directly knocked unconscious."

"Now that you mention it, I remember too. I was also knocked unconscious from behind when I went out to relieve myself at night, but I see that the rest of you seem to have fallen asleep and then woke up here," another wizard from another park added at this time.

After the two of them said this, a few more people in the cell said that they had also been attacked by others, and some people said that they had seen the appearance of the attackers, and they were indeed figures wearing white masks.

"White masks? Could it be the Silver Spears? But that shouldn't be," a wizard who obviously knew more than others showed a puzzled expression on his face.

"Mark, do you know those people? The Silver Spears you mentioned, are they the smugglers who sell magical animals on the black market?" Mark was overheard by the people next to him while he was muttering, and they immediately stepped forward, grabbed his collar, and asked loudly.

"I heard it too. What did you mean by 'shouldn't be'? Do you know the details of these people?" Another person next to him also approached Mark. "Your patrol team is in cahoots with the leader. Are you hiding something from us?"

At this time, the shouts of these two people also spread to other cells. Immediately, all the civilian wizards and Muggles turned their attention to Mark, or to the other patrol members they knew.

Mark was unnerved by the gazes of the crowd, and seeing that a few people seemed to want to attack him, he blurted out, "It's impossible for the Silver Spears to have tied us up here, because our park was built by them. That is to say, the Silver Spears are actually our employers. There's no reason for an employer to kidnap employees!"

The civilian wizards in each cell were in an uproar when they heard Mark's words.

"What? We've always been working for the Silver Spears? Doesn't that mean we're all accomplices of a smuggling group?" In Germany, most people know about the Silver Spears Club, but they also know that it is a criminal gang that operates in the gray area. They are usually good citizens and don't want to be involved with these people.

Nason's heart skipped a beat when he heard this information. He had heard Jimmy mention that the patrol team was associated with the Silver Spears, but as an honest person, he was unwilling to think in that direction, but now that a member of the patrol team had admitted it, combined with the information he had heard before, it proved that this was the truth.

Thinking of this, Nason looked around anxiously, but when he saw the figure sitting in the corner of a certain cell, his eyes lit up, and he immediately shouted at the other person, "Your Excellency Clement, you are the leader of our park, you should know what's going on!"

Hearing his call, the surrounding people's eyes followed Nason, and they found Clement sitting dejectedly in a corner in one of the cells. At this time, the old man no longer had his usual high spirits, only a dull and lifeless look in his eyes.

"It's really Your Excellency Clement. Have you also been kidnapped to this ghostly place?" The employees who had always admired and loved this kind leader also recognized him and called out to him with concern.

"Your Excellency Clement, it can't be the Silver Spears, right? Aren't we all their people?" The patrol members in Park One also shouted at him in panic, hoping to hear the answer from him.

But at this time, Clement was like a living dead, just lowering his head and muttering to himself in the corner, deaf to the shouts around him.

A Park One wizard who was in the same cell as Clement thought he wasn't fully conscious, came to his side, gently pushed him, and softly called out to him twice.

But Clement still didn't respond. Seeing this, the wizard had no choice but to lower his head and bring his head closer, but when he clearly heard the words Clement was muttering, his face suddenly changed.

"What's going on? What happened to Your Excellency Clement? Was he injured by the attackers?" Many people were still concerned about the old man.

"No..." The wizard next to Clement shook his head with an ugly expression. "He keeps muttering, 'It's over, it's all over, I've been abandoned by the club!'"

"What?"

After hearing the other party's answer, the people in each cell widened their eyes in shock.

The civilian wizards were shocked that Clement's words proved that they were indeed working for the Silver Spears, working for a smuggling group!

The patrol members in each park were shocked by what the other party said. Clement was abandoned? Does that mean they were also abandoned? Was it really the Silver Spears who locked them up here? But that doesn't make sense, they have always worked diligently and have never provoked the club.

The hundreds of people around them were silent for only a moment after hearing this news, and then burst into even more intense noise.

Some of them were confirming the accuracy of the news with the members of the patrol team, some of the patrol members were arguing with each other, and more people were venting their emotions in panic.

"Everyone, stop arguing."

At this time, a wizard shouted loudly, his voice even louder than the surrounding noise, and then everyone turned their attention to that person.

"Let's not get entangled in this. No matter who brought us here or who we're working for, we're all prisoners now. What we should be thinking about is how to escape, right?"

This wizard was burly, but his mind was very delicate. After he said this, the people around him suddenly woke up.
