บท 153: Chapter 153: Bruno’s Little Plan
Despair!
Bruno held the brown disk in his hand, his eyes dim and his expression depressed. "That's it. Why doesn't the portkey work?" he thought. Could it be that the Ministry of Magic has done this? In Bruno's knowledge, anti-Apparition spells can indeed prohibit spatial movement, but they should never affect a portkey. Portkeys can only be restricted if the Ministry of Magic deploys magical items specifically to confine space.
But when the idea crossed his mind, Bruno immediately dismissed it. There was no way the Ministry of Magic had done this themselves. He hadn't done anything unscrupulous—he just made and sold fake magic items to make money. Even so, he did it carefully. Every item he handled would have the exact effect he advertised when shipped. However, it might become completely useless after a week or a month. With this skill, and by hiding his identity when selling these fake magic items, basically no one could give him trouble.
Moreover, even if it was exposed, such a large-scale attack would not be launched. He had never heard of such a big creature like the one outside being kept by the Ministry of Magic. It felt more and more like the work of a dark wizard. Thinking of dark wizards made Bruno feel weak. He often hung out in the black market. He didn't know the methods of dark wizards in detail, but they were quite similar. These guys, due to their frequent use of black magic, had very unstable temperaments, and it was normal for them to suffer from mental illness occasionally.
Suddenly!
Boom! A huge roar sounded in his ears. Bruno looked up at the window and saw a large number of huge flaming stones floating in the sky, like meteorites, blasting directly towards his alchemy cabin. At this moment, Lockhart waved his wand, slightly affecting the Mirror Dimension and condensing a large amount of earth and stone into meteors. Although he couldn't control things at will in the Marvel world, Lockhart could still have a slight influence on the upgraded Mirror Dimension.
He controlled a large number of giant rocks, or meteorites, to float behind him and simultaneously cast a blazing spell to increase their power. The lightning strike earlier hadn't seriously injured the basilisk, but Lockhart could feel its pain through their contract. Immediately, he called the basilisk away, preparing to break through the defensive attacks from outside first. Fortunately, he hadn't fought inside this time. Already feeling a bit troublesome outside, if he were inside and allowed the goblin to control the traps at will, he might indeed be facing death.
Lockhart's thoughts flashed as he looked at the large number of flaming meteorites floating behind him again. He waved his wand, directing them towards the alchemy hut. As the meteorites shot towards the hut, the alchemy hut emitted a large amount of thunder, continuously crushing the incoming meteorites. However, it was evident that the thunder was getting weaker with each attack. After a while, its power weakened to an extreme.
Seeing this, Lockhart nodded with satisfaction. This time, he called out to the basilisk again, letting it vent its inner grievances and pain. The basilisk once again swung its body, smashing into the alchemy hut, making deafening noises. This time, due to its anger, it hit harder, and the sound became even more deafening. Under the constant attacks, the remaining defensive cover dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Then, Lockhart heard a voice in his ears and raised his eyebrows. He looked at the white flag flying above the roof and raised the corners of his mouth. However, he acted as if he hadn't heard anything and did not stop the basilisk's attack. He looked at the increasingly dim defensive shield with an indifferent expression.
Finally!
Boom! With a powerful strike from the basilisk, the defensive cover shattered with a cracking sound. At the same time, the alchemy hut, now defenseless, partially collapsed under the impact, making a loud noise. Seeing this, Lockhart signaled the basilisk to come back and controlled his body to land on the basilisk's head. Stepping on the snake's head, Lockhart pointed his wand at his throat and quietly released a Warless Amplification Charm.
"Bruno, since you surrendered, come out," Lockhart's loud voice spread around. The goblin Bruno poked his head out of the study, looking at the huge basilisk in front of him and the wizard on the snake's head with an expression full of fear. Realizing that all his methods were completely ineffective, Bruno quickly shouted loudly, fearing that the dark wizard would attack again.
"My lord, my lord, I'll come out right away," he said, opening the window of the study, holding the white flag, and activating the magic boots under his feet to step into the air quickly. This move showed his carefulness. He hoped to display his alchemy level to the dark wizard through such actions, asking him not to abuse him. Bruno had a rough guess about Lockhart's intentions this time. Apart from a bunch of valuable magic items, his alchemy skills were his most valuable asset.
In order to get better treatment in the future, he deliberately showcased his alchemy skills. He didn't want to be seen as worthless and eliminated. He had often heard that dark wizards were merciless to those who had no value. The most typical case was the Dark Lord. According to legend, the Dark Lord was extremely cruel to wizards who had no value, often subjecting them to the Cruciatus Curse.
After thinking about it, Bruno walked through the air, constantly waving the white flag to signal his surrender. At this moment, Lockhart looked at Bruno walking in the air with great interest, especially at the boots on his feet. If he hadn't been sharp-eyed, he wouldn't have noticed the mark of Kamar Taj on the shoes. At first glance, they resembled magic items similar to the Boots of Hermes. However, the modified boots of Hermes were obviously more high-end, revealing a mysterious and magical style. They seemed like luxury items carefully designed and refined by a master.
Lockhart thought to himself that Bruno's aesthetic and craftsmanship were quite good, better than many ordinary wizards. He could later have Bruno refine some of his items. Lockhart decided to give his future subordinate an extra burden. He had always been fond of beautiful things. Knowing that his future subordinate had good craftsmanship and aesthetic standards, he wouldn't hesitate to use him.
Of course, the premise was: "Bruno, relax your mind and sign the contract." Lockhart waved his wand, drawing a large number of pale golden lines in mid-air. Soon, a pale golden rune pattern appeared and floated towards Bruno.
