Flitwick's levitating spell finally hit the rope accurately, forcing Luna, who had already jumped into the pit, to drag her to the bottom of the pit.
At this moment, she felt a little stomachache from the rope wrapped around her waist.
However, Luna, who was hanging her hands and feet at the moment, had no time to care about this, because even though she still failed to reach the bottom of the pit, she still vaguely felt a suspicious flow of magic power.
"Miss Lovegood, are you okay? I'm going to pull you up right now—"
On the ground, Flitwick, who was standing by the pothole with his wand stretched out, shouted down, then without waiting for Luna to answer, he decisively raised the tip of his wand.
Suddenly, Luna was like a little kitten being lifted up by the scruff of her neck, and was pulled up by Flitwick's control of the rope.
"oh!"
The moment she set foot on the ground again, she lost her balance and sat down on the ground.
"Miss Lovegood, I'm not telling you, but you are too bold!" Flitwick finally couldn't help but muttered after lifting the levitation spell, "You know what? Kingsley and Xiao When Sirius and the others checked this area, they didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary, just because they were worried that there might be some undiscovered traps. After all, even Maka has been hit once... "
Flitwick was originally a person who didn't always keep his mouth shut, but now Luna's impulsiveness made him unable to hold back and wanted to warn her more.
The latter sat by the pothole, listening blankly to Flitwick's high-pitched voice, and nodded after a long while.
"Sorry, Professor Flitwick... I understand."
To be honest, Luna was not actually admitting her mistake.
With her usual style of doing things, it has long been a habit to do things on her own as she did just now. It would be very difficult to make her feel that she had done something wrong.
However, she could feel worry and concern from Flitwick's nagging - only after feeling the other person's kindness did she intuitively realize that she might need to apologize to him.
At the very least, you should accept the kindness of those who care about you.
However, accepting kindness is one thing, but whether she should stick to her own opinion is another matter for Luna.
"Professor, I will be more careful next time."
Before she finished speaking, Luna, who was sitting on the ground and nodding obediently one second, directly supported the ground and moved her butt back the next second, turned over and fell into the hole again.
But this time, Flitwick really didn't expect that the little witch would jump a second time without success. The crisp and unpredicted move really shocked him.
"Oh, sure enough—those little things here have strange reactions!"
Luna controlled the rope that had not been loosened and quickly descended to the bottom of the pit. And then, the free magic power in her perception seemed to move in a strange direction, seeming to extend from the bottom of the pit to the cave wall on one side.
"Lovgu—"
"Professor Flitwick, I think I have a clue!"
Above, Flitwick hurriedly looked down the pit, and then he heard Luna's voice coming through, interrupting his rambling behind him.
"What?" He was suddenly surprised, "Clues...really?"
"Yes," Luna raised her neck with a clean smile on her face, "It's right over here - well, it should be heading in that direction!"
"Are they the 'small particles' lingering in the air that you told Professor McGonagall before?"
In response to Flitwick's repeated confirmation, Luna nodded firmly towards the hole's entrance.
"That's right."
…
Not to mention that Luna seized the opportunity of the Muggle mutation, was able to persuade Professor McGonagall to go to the scene where Maka disappeared, and successfully found a clue.
In fact, when something happened in the Ministry of Magic dungeon this morning, Maka, who was still wandering in the black and white city, suddenly stopped moving forward.
But when he touched a certain symbol pattern on his wrist, the faint burning sensation made him frown slightly.
"...This time, I really can't stay here any longer."
Although he really wanted to know the reason why Haierbo created this special space, he still had to go back if something unexpected happened to the outside world.
But now, the magic script mark he left in the dungeon of the Ministry of Magic has obviously been destroyed.
The next moment, Maka took out the staff and waved it.
In an instant, a silver eagle suddenly appeared accompanied by a large silver haze, flapping its wings silently and flying into the sky.
This is Maka's silver eagle patron saint. The bright silver represents his strong spiritual power. Even this space created by Haierbo cannot take away the color from Maca itself.
But to be honest, even Maka couldn't help but feel relieved when she saw such bright colors in this city that only had black, white and gray.
You know, he has stayed in this boring space for several days!
However, the patron saint was summoned just to have it deliver a message to the windbreaker wizard. If he wanted to leave this space, the Patronus Charm wouldn't be of much help.
"Let me see where you put the magic node that connects to the outside world!"
Just as he was thinking this, Maka suddenly punched the staff in his hand on the ground, and a ray of magic power swept straight to a certain direction in the city through an obscure method.
At the same time, outside in a small corner of downtown London, an inconspicuous little black spider suddenly started to tremble.
Immediately afterwards, I saw it crawling out of the corner quickly, and in the blink of an eye it ran into the distance and disappeared.
Not long after, no one, including the Aurors who were still searching for traces of Maca in and around London, noticed that some spiders in the city suddenly became active.
They confirm their position in various places in London. Whenever a little spider finds the right place, the symbol drawn on its abdomen will light up with a faint blue light accordingly. Soon, those unnoticed little spiders gradually built a magic web covering most of the city.
When this magic net was finally formed, Maka, who was still in the black and white space, also expanded the range of perception to the limit.
This method of greatly expanding his sensing range came from the method he used to use spiders to infiltrate the Ministry of Magic.
Only due to the problem of the transmission distance of magic power, this method was not successfully put into use until he now mastered some of the soul rules.
And now it seems...
"...The effect is pretty good, just a little blurry."
It is impossible for creatures in the outside world to appear in this black and white space, but the magic power of these creatures will be reflected here accordingly.
Because of this, the magic web built by the Acromantulas can be used by Maka in this space without any hindrance.
In other words, the experience of being able to perceive the magical dynamics of most of London is indeed shocking enough.
But in fact, it's not that wonderful.
A large amount of free magic power is moving in such a wide range. Just feeling its majesty like a vast ocean makes Maka like a small boat rolling and swaying in the stormy waves.
Fortunately, the entire magic web is supported by the souls of the little spiders. This small boat in the wind and waves always has a harbor to rely on.
"Well, the turbulent flow of magic power over Big Ben is still continuing, which is somewhat unclear. However, such an almost unnecessary flow is definitely not a magic node. Instead, it seems to be caused by some magic item. The source of magic..."
"Those two magic sources...are they Kingsley and Sirius? Sure enough, it's still too vague, but if they are really them, they should be looking for me..."
"The Ministry of Magic can't sense it. Is it because it's underground? I don't know what the situation is like there. I hope the Aurors left behind can seal off the dungeon floor in time..."
At this time, Maka almost transformed into a human-shaped Marauder's Map, and it was a large-scale map covering most of London. Any wizard who he can distinguish the fluctuation of magic power can be tracked and observed by him in real time.
However, it had already taken a lot of time just waiting for his precious spiders to arrive. But now it is obvious that it will take more time to find the so-called magic nodes in the entire city.
"Mr. MacLean?"
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded from behind Maka. Just by hearing the hoarse voice, one could easily tell who was coming even without the Patron Saint who came back with him.
What's more, there are only two people in this space at the moment - unless Haierbo comes, who else could it be
"Are you here?" Maka nodded slightly and said without looking back, "Wait here for a moment! I'm looking for a way to leave... Something happened outside, and I have to go back. That's why I asked you to come over. , I want to ask you if you want to go out with me?"
"Something happened? What-"
Behind Maka, the windbreaker wizard was halfway through speaking subconsciously, but he quickly closed his mouth slightly in a daze.
Maka was naturally very keenly aware of the other party's anomalies, but he didn't say anything more, but refocused his attention on perception.
The windbreaker wizard stood silently behind him, seemingly wanting to speak several times in a row, but holding back at the last moment each time.
No one knows what this always mysterious wizard knows or what he wants to say. Even if Maka noticed the mystery of the other party, she only tacitly agreed not to pierce the extremely thin layer of window paper.
More than half an hour later, Maka was suddenly stunned.
"That's... Luna?"
