Chapter 376 Christmas Secret Meeting

The Christmas holiday is finally here, and this year’s Hogwarts can be said to be the deserted it has been in the past century.

Because all the students who had families to return to, they chose to go home to spend Christmas without hesitation. No one wanted to stay in Hogwarts and continue to face Umbridge’s stinky face every day. .

Harry and Mike did not choose to stay in school, but the difference was that the former did not choose to stay in school just because he had to take care of the injured Mr. Weasley with the three Weasley brothers at St. Mungo's to relieve his inner pain. Guilt - Harry believed that he was largely to blame for Mr. Weasley's attack.

As for the latter, Mike is no longer the loner he was when he first crossed over. Now he has not only gained a group of friends from the Freemasonry, but also has an elder like Professor Flitwick. Naturally, he will spend Christmas with them. Passed.

Of course, the most important reason is because of Penelo.

In the past few months, Mike and Penello have not seen each other for a long time due to work reasons, which makes Penello very dissatisfied.

I finally got a vacation this time, so of course I had to ‘comfort’ my girlfriend.

However, what Mike didn't expect was that shortly after the Christmas vacation began, Victor, who had not appeared for a long time, came to him and made a strange request to him.

In the magic training ground of the secret realm of Freemasonry, Mike and Victor were standing opposite each other.

Mike was wearing a dark black combat uniform exclusively used within the Freemasonry, while Victor opposite him was shirtless. His exposed muscles reflected a strange light under the magic lamp on the ceiling of the training square, and there was a faint feeling inside. There is even a stream of light flashing around.

At the edge of the training ground, Arthur, Penello and other Freemasonry members were nervously looking at the two people on the square. Among them, Benjamin was holding a laptop computer, observing the two people and writing on it. Keep banging.

"Is Victor crazy?" Franklin looked at the solemn Victor in the square with an expression like a fool. "If he wants to test the data of the new body, he can use other methods. Why does he have to ask Mike for actual combat testing? ?Isn’t this seeking death?”

Hearing this, Benjamin looked at Victor deeply, and his hands stopped typing on the keyboard.

As someone who has been with Victor for a long time, he can actually understand Victor's psychology very well - Victor is actually very anxious.

Mike gave him great support on the journey of mechanical body transformation.

This moved Victor very much, but it is not that easy to open up a new field after all.

Victor is a proud man.

But nowadays, people like them who concentrate on studying magic spells or potions and other conventional combat methods have made great progress in combat effectiveness, but Victor has been standing still, which makes him very anxious. Eager to prove myself.

However, even if this is the case, is it too reckless for you to directly find Mike as a test subject?

You must know that Mike's strength is completely monster-level in everyone's eyes!

Thinking like this, a trace of worry appeared in Benjamin's eyes.

But while Benjamin was thinking wildly, Victor standing on the field started to move.

There was only a sound of engine revving, and bursts of blue light emitted from Victor's knees and other leg joints wrapped in black trousers.

Immediately afterwards, Victor turned into an afterimage and rushed straight towards Mike at an extremely fast speed!

"This speed! You can almost catch up with me!"

A trace of surprise flashed across Arthur's eyes, but Victor did not stop moving at this moment. His upper body was constantly deforming as he ran. First, a tail-like mechanical creation stretched out from his back. The tip of this tail is a brown wand, which is currently stroking in the air as Victor runs.

These sliding trajectories may seem mindless, but if you observe carefully, you can find that they are actually dancing according to a certain pattern.

At the same time, Victor's free arms also changed.

His right hand had disappeared, replaced by a sharp sword that shone with cold light, while his left hand turned into a cannon barrel, with the same faint blue light brewing in it.

"sough!"

As two sounds of breaking through the air were heard, two beams of light, one red and one blue, were shot from the barrel of Victor's left hand and the tail behind his back, flying towards Mike.

Penello and others at the edge of the square exclaimed when they saw this, because the speed of the two beams was so fast that it almost exceeded the limit that the naked eye could capture.

However, the next moment, their exclamations were stuck.

Because at the moment when the two beams of light were about to hit, Mike waved his right hand holding the wand lightly, and then a terrifyingly powerful magic burst out from the wand.

Victor's attack was like a drop of water falling into the sea in this powerful magic power. After creating a small ripple, it disappeared silently.

Benjamin was so shocked that he couldn't speak at this moment, because he, who specializes in spells and potions, knew exactly what Mike had just done.

That is not a defensive technique at all, but a pure release of magic power!

Generally, this kind of defense method will only appear on two wizards who are quite disparate in strength, just like a professor versus a student. Only the opponent's magic level is low enough, or one's own magic power is high enough to resolve the opponent's attack so easily. attack.

But are Victor's magic levels really low?

certainly not!

As someone who specializes in taking care of Victor's life, Benjamin knows Victor's level of magic very well.

Although Victor has been studying human machinery, since he is still in the developmental stage, the level of magic power in his body is still rising.

Even compared to himself and others, he is not weaker at all.

Then there is only one answer left - Mike has become stronger than they can guess!

Just when several people at the edge of the square were shocked, Victor had already approached Mike. The sharp sword in his right hand slashed towards Mike without hesitation. However, this sword was struck by another sharp sword. Blocked by one of Mike's spare swords.

Seeing that Mike did not use the holy sword to deal with him, the expression on Victor's face became even more ferocious. The barrel of his left hand pressed against Mike's chest and began to charge energy again.

Seeing this, a trace of surprise flashed across Mike's eyes. Of course, what surprised him was not that Victor was so ruthless, but that Victor hadn't shown signs of fatigue yet.

Combining the research reports submitted by Victor, Mike actually has a certain understanding of the combat method of Victor's machine.

Victor's body is equipped with multiple high-power alchemical engines, energy storage cannons, transforming swords, and a 'tail' that is directly connected to the nerves and can independently wave the wand and transmit magic power.

This makes his fighting style extremely special, a combination of speed and strength.

And such a body requires a huge amount of energy.

In order to maintain high flexibility of the machine, Victor did not choose to pretend to be everyone's energy pendant, but chose to be fully charged by the magic power in his body.

But Victor is not the one who has many adventures. As a wizard who is not yet an adult, the amount of magic power in his body is not very high. Victor should feel very strenuous if he continuously uses energy-consuming devices like energy-storing cannons.

Thinking this, Mike looked at Victor's face again.

At this moment, Victor looked like he was gritting his teeth, and there was cold sweat on his forehead.

Suddenly, Mike understood what was going on - Victor was holding on!

Mike's expression became serious and he decided to end this battle quickly.

I saw the wand in my right hand waved again, and a mass of magic power so rich that it was almost visible to the naked eye spurted towards Victor. At the same time, Mike's left hand was not idle either. His fingers silently drew a semicircle in the air. , also murmuring:

"Confuse the public!"

"Bang!"

There was an explosion, and Victor flew backwards at a faster speed than when he came in. He fell hard to the ground and slid on the ground for nearly five meters before he came to a stop.

Victor raised his dusty face and looked at the figure still standing quietly in the distance, his heart filled with despair.

Mike is really too strong, so strong that it’s shocking and hopeless!

But can he really give up like that?

Victor questioned himself in his heart, but in the next moment, he already got the answer.

no! I absolutely can't give up just like that!

"Expelliarmus!"

Victor shouted with all his strength, and at the same time, the tail behind him also twisted, and a particularly rich red light spurted out from it!

"Boom!"

There was a muffled sound, and the disarming spell shot from the tip of Victor's staff did not hit Mike, but fell on Victor himself!

Victor was knocked away again, with a look of confusion on his face.

What was equally unbelievable was Franklin and others on the edge of the field. From their perspective, Victor had just cast a disarming spell on himself, and it was also a super powerful one.

So the question is, is Victor really the kind of loser who can even confuse his target?

of course not!

You must know that Victor was famous as a fighting elite before joining the Freemasons! First place in the monster hunting competition!

"It's a confusion spell!" Benjamin sighed and explained, "The moment Victor and Mike came into contact just now, Mike released a confusion spell on Victor's wand, so his wand can't distinguish between friend and foe!"

After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized, and at the same time, Mike came to Victor's side and stretched out his hand towards Victor who was lying on the ground in a very embarrassed state.

"Get up."

Listening to Mike's gentle words in front of him and looking at his sunny smile, Victor sighed deeply.

"I'm really impressed by you!"

The two hands were clasped together in mid-air, and Benjamin and others on the edge of the field also had smiles on their faces.

"Master." Shuke, the house elf, suddenly appeared next to Mike, "The dinner is ready, should we start now?"

Mike chuckled, pulled Victor up, and said:

"Then let's get started!"

…

Ten minutes later, in the restaurant of the Secret Masonic Realm, Mike and other members of the Freemasonry were sitting around a long table, and in front of them were mountains of delicious food.

Especially for Arthur, the food in front of him can be described as a hill. This was a decision made by Shuke after considering his appetite, in order to ensure that every guest at this dinner can enjoy themselves. .

You must know that this banquet is a year-end summary dinner specially prepared by Mike. As the organizer, Shuke naturally cannot make any mistakes.

Speaking of which, there is actually no such custom as a company annual meeting in the wizarding world. After all, the population of the wizarding world is too small, and people are social creatures. Compared with gatherings of colleagues in the company, everyone prefers to have family gatherings with each other. People are together.

But Mike and everyone in the Freemasonry are different. They are all new generation wizards from the Muggle society, so they naturally prefer such gatherings.

Halfway through the banquet, Mike raised his wine glass and pointed it at everyone from a distance and said loudly:

"Everyone, you have all done a great job in the past year, especially the new members who have joined us. You have proven your abilities to me. And what I want to say more is Victor, as you just saw At present, his human mecha has the ability to fight in actual combat. Although it is still unable to face the overwhelming wizards, there is no doubt that this is an innovation that can change the world! "

Hearing this, Zhou Hong and others all had smiles on their faces. As for Victor, he shook his head with a wry smile.

No one knows better than him that the current mechas indeed have good combat effectiveness, but this is far from enough for everyone in the Freemasonry.

At least until he solves the energy problem and adds more and stronger mechanical components, this so-called human mecha is completely useless!

However, Mike in the first seat did not notice Victor's expression and continued:

"But it's not enough. I'm sorry. I know it's a bit embarrassing to say this at such a happy moment, but I still have to say it. The difficulties we will face next will be more severe, and some decisions made within the organization may This will be unacceptable to some members. But please believe me, everything I do is to allow Freemasonry to have a better tomorrow. Here, I apologize to everyone for the decisions I may make in the future! "

Mike stood up and bowed to everyone.

"Okay, now, please raise your glasses and let us drink to the greater good!"

After hearing this, everyone stood up one after another. Even Arthur, who was engrossed in eating, hurriedly poured a glass of red wine and stood up.

"For the greater good!"
