Chapter 576 Shutdown

"Next, it's our turn."

Mike's mouth curled up, and he walked slowly toward the door.

As he moved, a strong magic power that was visible to the naked eye also spread out, and a breeze blew in the closed meditation room, blowing the silk black robe on Mike's body.

This is the power of the legendary wizard. The magic power left by meditation alone can cause such a change.

Penelope's eyes were straight, and she was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses and followed Mike's footsteps.

But Penelope didn't know that although the scene she saw in front of her was shocking, it was proof that Mike had not yet fully controlled the magic power in his body.

Just like Dumbledore and Voldemort, they would not leak some magic power from time to time when they were practicing activities. Instead, they were more like ordinary people in their daily lives.

Breaking through the legendary realm was like opening the limiter in Mike's body. Since breaking through the legendary realm, every moment, the magic power in Mike's body has been soaring at an explosive speed.

This makes it difficult for Mike's powerful mental power to control this rapidly emerging new magic.

This is a very normal phenomenon. Almost every legendary wizard has to go through such a period of magic surge at the point of breakthrough. This process is long or short, but legendary wizards must wait until this period is over before they can fully master all their own power. The reason why

Mike has been hiding in the meditation room to meditate during this period is that he wants to use meditation as a means to quickly master the magic in his body.

At present, the effect of this method is very good.

Although Mike still has a little magic overflow, he has basically mastered the newly added magic in his body. As for the new magic that is still emerging in his body, he needs to wait until he has time to adapt to it in the future.

Now Mike has more important things to do!

The two walked out of the meditation room, walking quickly one after the other. After passing through one door after another, they finally came to a room with a large number of machines and display screens.

This is the comprehensive intelligence command room built by Mike with Victor's new technology. Through a large number of mechanical transmissions in the room, real-time monitoring of every corner of the entire Masonic secret realm and delayed monitoring of some of the combatants outside, and many other information will be gathered here and displayed on the dense display covering an entire wall.

To be honest, the scene in this comprehensive intelligence command room is somewhat like the command room of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) that can often be seen in TV and movies. It is very modern and even a bit sci-fi.

Mike was very curious about how Victor came up with such a thing. After all, there was too much Muggle knowledge involved in it. Even if Victor has become a mechanical life, it is too unscientific and not magical.

Of course, curiosity is curiosity, Mike is not stupid enough to ask Victor.

He still has self-knowledge.

Even if Victor patiently explains this to him, he will definitely not understand it.

"Mr. Townley!" *N

found the arrival of Mike and Penelope, and the staff who were still busy in front of the screen all stood up, hammered their left chests with their right hands, and saluted Mike.

Mike nodded, waved his hand to signal them to sit down, and said,

"What's the situation now?"

"Report to you, our operation was very successful!" A girl wearing a beret said expressionlessly, "At present, more than 70% of the Auror troops of the Ministry of Magic have been eliminated, and they are almost in a semi-disabled state. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was also successfully captured under the command of Captain Arthur. The various non-human intelligent creature groups in Ying Country have successfully eliminated the Ministry of Magic officials in their protected areas, and began to attack those pure-blood families under our command. In addition, the foreign non-human intelligent creature forces represented by Kled and Carlisle in the United States have also arrived at the designated location and began to attack and ambush the Ministry of Magic officials according to the original plan."

Mike nodded with satisfaction.

The current development of the situation is much smoother than he expected. It seems that the Ministry of Magic did not raise too much vigilance after attacking their lecture venue, or Chris did not expect Mike's attack to come so quickly.

But in any case, this is a good thing for Mike.

Mike smiled and said,

"Give orders to all the commanders of the troops, and ask them to withdraw all the cutting-edge forces while maintaining the needs of the occupied areas."

"Yes! Sir Townley!"

Everyone in the integrated command room answered in unison, and then the entire command room began to get busy again. Human voices and electronic synthesized sounds kept interweaving together, forming a huge noise that made people feel irritated.

But Mike didn't feel that way at all. On the contrary, he even enjoyed this busy and noisy atmosphere, which could well relieve his loneliness caused by long-term meditation.

While Mike was enjoying it, Penelope tugged at Mike's sleeves uneasily, until Mike turned his head to look at her and said hesitantly:

"This... should be the last battle, right?"

Mike stared at Penelope and saw that her eyebrows were tightly kneaded together, so he stretched out his hand and carefully rubbed them, then hugged her gently and said:

"Of course! After this battle, everything will be settled. Don't worry, I won't fail."

"Yeah!"

Penelope nodded gently after hearing this, and at the same time stretched out her hand and hugged Mike, unwilling to let go for a long time.

Smelling the fragrance from Penelope's hair and feeling Penelope's slowly slowing heartbeat, Mike was also full of emotion.

The relationship between him and Penelope has slowly entered a calm stage from the initial enthusiasm.

This seems to be a good thing at first glance, because it indicates that the relationship between them is changing from lovers to relatives.

But the actual experience is far from that good.

As the two lost their passion for each other and the things that bothered Mike were increasing, the interactions between the two were becoming less and less, and they had not even done the kind of exercise that was beneficial to the body and mind for a long time.

Mike was obviously unqualified as a boyfriend.

But Penelope did not complain. Even though her ability was limited, she still worked hard and took care of Mike's daily life silently.

This touched Mike very much.

'Perhaps, when this war is over, it's time for me to propose to Penelope and give her a result.'

Mike made up his mind secretly, and at the same time, he tightened his hand around Penelope.

But soon, he noticed something was wrong.

Did I just set a flag?

'Could it be that there will be another change in this war?'

Mike thought so, but soon smiled and shook his head.

This is the real world. How could the Internet memes that only exist in literary works really come true.

In the noisy integrated command room, Mike and Penelope just hugged each other quietly.

Although people came and went around them, no one paid attention to them.

Even if someone accidentally glanced at them, they would quickly look away and pretend that they didn't see anything.

Everyone knew that it was better not to disturb them at this time.

But people who don't know how to be tactful will always appear.

I don't know how long it took, Mike felt someone patting his shoulder gently.

He shook his hand off impatiently, but the man still shook him persistently, even with more force.

Finally, Mike frowned and turned his head fiercely, ready to see who was the bold guy who dared to disturb him and Penelope's family.

But as soon as he turned his head, he found something wrong.

The originally noisy integrated command room had become quiet at this moment, and the people surrounding him had changed from the staff in the command room to Arthur, Benjamin and others. At this moment, they were looking at him and Penelope with interest.

Seeing this, Penelope pushed Mike away fiercely, blushing and fleeing from the integrated intelligence command room.

"Welcome back." Franklin said with a strange tone, smiling and teasing, "I thought you were going to hug each other until dawn."

Hearing this, Mike shook his head helplessly, looked at the direction where Penelope left, and then said to Franklin and others unhappily:

"When did you come back?"

"Probably when you hugged each other for about half an hour. By the way, it's been two hours since you hugged each other."

Victor said after looking at the watch.

"So you just watched a good show for more than an hour? Oh! You are really my good friends!"

Mike spread his hands and pretended to be angry and said slowly, but as soon as he finished speaking, he felt a familiar force on his shoulder again.

Mike turned his head and saw Zhou Hong shaking his shoulders persistently.

Obviously, it was him who woke him up just now.

"Oh! Zhou Hong, you are still good. I guess you must not want to continue to watch me make a fool of myself, so you woke me up? I really love you for nothing."

Mike said with a look of relief, and at the same time reached out to touch Zhou Hong's hair.

But Mike's outstretched hand was rudely knocked away by Zhou Hong, who glared and said:

"I don't care if you make a fool of yourself! I came here to tell you that Victor attacked Harry at Hogwarts just now, just for the invisibility cloak! Mike, he has not given up the Deathly Hallows until now, you must punish him this time!"

Mike's embarrassment flashed across his face, he frowned and looked at Victor, his expression was very serious.

As for the Deathly Hallows, Mike still said the same thing, as long as he was alive, no one could successfully take the elder wand from him and achieve the achievement of collecting the three Deathly Hallows.

So he didn't really care about Victor's research on the Deathly Hallows.

It's normal for researchers to be a little curious.

The reason why Victor was verbally warned before was because Zhou Hong's state was a little wrong, and he needed to be appeased in this way.

But now, if what Zhou Hong said was true, then Victor would be a little crazy.

You know, Harry is their mutual friend!

"Victor, did you really do that?"

Mike asked angrily, but Victor didn't say anything, just lowered his head towards Mike, as if he had nothing to defend.

This made Mike a little confused about what to do.

Now is the critical moment before the final battle, and Victor must be dealt with quickly.

But Victor's contribution to the Freemasons is not small.

Not to mention that he willingly transformed himself into a mechanical life that lost all human emotions and absolute rationality in order to rescue Mike, but the advanced equipment he subsequently provided to the Freemasons greatly improved the current backward technical level of the Freemasons.

Moreover, as a member of the Freemasons, Victor signed the "Unbreakable Oath" like everyone else when he joined the Freemasons.

As a manifestation of the rules, even though Victor has now left his human body and become a mechanical life form that Mike cannot understand, the "Unbreakable Oath" is still engraved on his soul and continues to work.

Therefore, Victor will never infringe on the interests of his colleagues in the Freemasons, and Mike and others must not make too harsh actions against him.

This gave Mike a headache.

At this moment, Benjamin stood up. He looked at Victor deeply, and then came to Zhou Hong and said to Mike:

"I remember that Victor's body has been stored in his alchemy laboratory, and it is operated by the magic power device inside the Freemasonry, right? If so, it will be much easier. In view of the current situation, shut him down temporarily."

Mike did not reply, but continued to look at Victor.

This time, Victor did not remain silent.

"Mike, you know, I did this for the Freemasonry." Victor sighed and said while walking in the integrated intelligence command room, "The Deathly Hallows is a huge treasure. The command room you see now and some other emerging products are the products of my research on the elderberry wand and the resurrection stone.

To be honest, I am not very interested in collecting the three Deathly Hallows. Even now, I am not very interested in the Resurrection Stone and the Elder Wand in your hand. After all, I have already studied them. I just want to study the invisibility cloak itself and try to discover more technologies from it.

It's a pity that you don't allow me to do so. Maybe you should take the initiative to ask Harry for the invisibility cloak, which will be good for all of us. "

"Bullshit!"

Zhou Hong cursed as soon as Victor finished speaking.

But the next moment his mouth was covered by Benjamin. At the same time, Victor obviously didn't care about it. He continued to stare at Mike, as if waiting for Mike to give an answer.

Mike, who was looking at him, shook his head and said solemnly:

"I don't have time to discuss the right and wrong of this matter with him now. And in view of what you have done, I'm sorry, Victor, I have to turn you off temporarily. "
