Chapter 206 [Exploring the Strange Phenomenon in the Mountain (Blue)]

That evening, Ted was still visiting Jerry's house. After having a sumptuous and special dinner with Jerry's friends, news came from the Ministry of Magic.

The Ministry of Magic is completely unable to spare any manpower, and even the two interns here have to be transferred away.

Because something big happened near Edinburgh.

A giant, five-meter-long creature from another world broke into the edge of the city, destroying six houses, killing eight people, and injuring twelve. It also destroyed a section of the street...

It is said that the Muggle Prime Minister is furious and has already said that he will use troops.

The Ministry of Magic also dispatched almost all of its Aurors, strikers, and employees to deal with the aftermath - how to cut off communications, how to appease Muggles, erase related memories, and restore damaged buildings... But the dead cannot be resurrected! How to account for the death of eight people?

Since the fall of Voldemort, even the dark wizard community has followed an unspoken rule - that is, they cannot kill Muggles in public and expose the existence of the wizarding world.

Otherwise, if the wizarding world is exposed in the slightest, it will not be the business of the British wizarding world alone. The International Confederation of Wizards will also intervene, and it may even be a joint hunt by the ministries of magic of many countries.

But now, this magical creature from another world, which came out from nowhere, appeared directly on the edge of the city and started to destroy as soon as it appeared.

The Ministry of Magic was slow to react, and by the time the relevant personnel arrived at the scene, the local police had already been shooting at the unknown beast for several minutes.

"Those strange iron wands of Muggles have little effect on the monster. They can't even penetrate its fur. Even the first team of Aurors who arrived didn't have a good solution. The monster has a high resistance to magic and can continue to move despite several spells. It's simply a fire dragon walking on the ground!" said a young employee in the Asian Affairs Office.

"I'm sorry, we have to go over there to provide support now. You guys have to hold on here on your own..." When he said this, he felt a little embarrassed.

There are monsters attacking the village here, and we, the people from the Ministry of Magic, are actually leaving?
It was the horned man who had a better vision and comforted him: "Andrew, don't worry too much. This is not your fault. Go and perform your duties. I wish you peace."

These words were very thoughtful. They not only comforted the young Ministry of Magic employee who still had a conscience, but also left a good impression and a favor.

This sturdy man looks quite rough, but I didn't expect that he is as rough yet delicate as Zhang Fei's embroidery.

In fact, this man is also considered the village chief, although Decamund does not have such a position.

Ted was quite concerned about the "monster siege" in Edinburgh and wanted to find out some information, but both the Weasleys and Harry were very far away. Even for Ansu, it would take several hours to fly back and forth.

This communication is still too inconvenient. If there is WeChat, we can get in touch with just a ding.

That night, Ted stayed at Jerry's house.

In the village of Decamund, there was a group of adult demihumans who had not slept at all, standing guard on the wooden wall of the village.

In fact, the night was not peaceful either.

In the distant mountains and forests, all kinds of wild beasts and even magical creatures rushed out. Some seemed frightened and ran straight towards Decamund, while others took a detour and fled to farther places.

The men on guard at night fired a dozen rockets back and forth to drive away the panicked beasts.

The people in the village were worried. It was obvious that something had happened in the mountains, which had even disrupted the original ecological chain. Many creatures fled in panic.

Passive defense like this is really not a good idea.

But now, the village really cannot send out a large number of people, otherwise the defense force will be insufficient and accidents may easily happen.

Ted sat on a stone pier at the edge of the village's stone square, listening to the villagers' discussions while looking at his own tasks.

"Ding~ Triggering the task:

【Explore the Vision in the Mountain (Blue)】

The Misty Mountains are vast and have many rare herbs and magical animals. Now something strange seems to have happened in the mountains, threatening the subhuman villages. The great man said that you should make as many friends as possible, so you can't just ignore it.

Objective: To investigate the abnormal situation in the mountain.

Rewards: 550 experience points, 200 reputation points with the subhuman village of Decamund, card [Mountain (Blue)].

The evening mist is thick and the mountains are far away. There must be a reason why all the beasts are frightened. "

The villagers were not quite united in their thoughts. Some wanted to go deeper into the mountains to investigate the situation, some wanted to strengthen the defense, some wanted to set up sentries around to increase the alert range, and some of the most pessimistic people were ready to evacuate at any time...

After all, they have lived here for nearly ten years, and every blade of grass, every stone on the ground is the result of their hard work. It is really hard to give up. But if there is a greater danger, losing the land and saving the people is necessary.

Jerry was in a very low mood. After all, the village was facing such an unknown danger, and he had no way to deal with it. He couldn't help but ask Ted: "Ted, what do you think we should do?"

Ted glanced at him and whispered, "I'm planning to explore the mountains. Do you have a map of the area?"

Jerry was startled, but then calmed down. After all, it was not surprising that Ted would make such a choice.

He took Ted to his room and took out a leather map from the box under the bed.

This is a map drawn by the village, which includes the main terrain nearby and the routes of their exploration teams in recent days.

"Which direction should we explore?"

Ted pointed to a place on the map and said, "Let's go there first."

However, the two of them wanted to go and investigate the situation secretly but were discovered.

It's Jerry's childhood sweetheart.

"Jerry, where are you going?" The mouse-eared girl appeared silently behind the wall not far away, poking her head out and asked.

Jerry and Ted were both shocked!
Ted: Holy shit, twelve meters, right at the edge of my mental perception range! Is that such a coincidence?
Jerry smiled awkwardly: "You found me again."

It turns out that this mouse-eared girl, Xueli, although she did not awaken her magic power to become a wizard, is a true natural stealth user.

Jerry was the first person to wander around at night in Hogwarts. Although he didn't have an invisibility cloak and couldn't cast invisibility spells, he managed to wander around at night for two years without being caught.

But compared to my childhood sweetheart, it's nothing.

Jerry had no choice but to tell Sydney about his and Ted's plan. Sydney immediately asked to join!
Ted hesitated a little, because if there was any danger, with his current strength, it would not be a problem to take Jerry and escape. But if there was one more person, it would be hard to say.

At the beginning of the vacation, Ted had already upgraded his experience points.

It takes 6 experience points to upgrade from level 7 to level 21000. After the reduction of the talent [Study God (Purple)], it still takes 18500 experience points.

1 attribute point, Ted added it to spirit.

1 point of skill was added to magic power, raising the magic power to level 7.

At this time, the effect of the wand's magic power +1 level has expired.

This is the limit of the cedar phoenix feather wand.

However, the magic +2 level effect of the pseudo-philosopher's stone is still there.

After the bonus, the magic power is level 9!
Ted's magical power is already at Snape's level.

He is considered to be at the top of the magic world! And he is only 13 years old!
Ted dared to say that Voldemort, who had just graduated, was definitely not as good as himself in terms of magical power.

The rapid improvement in magic power allowed Ted to cast many spells with more powerful effects, and some restrictions on powerful magic no longer existed.

For example, he has basically mastered all the DND3 ring spells that he had not been able to master before.

He also used alchemy to refine a lot of magic props, so self-protection was not a problem.

……

Xueli also saw Ted's concerns, and with a flick of her wrist, she grasped the dagger that she had taken out from somewhere, "Don't underestimate me!"

Jerry also explained: "Sydney's fighting ability is very strong. She is especially good at sneak attacks... I mean, unexpected attacks."

Ted said "Excuse me" and used the identification technique.

[Snowy], Mouse-eared subhuman, Level 4 Stalker/Level 1 Dark Assassin...

There are actually 5 levels!
Much higher than level 3 Jerry!
