Chapter 196 Accident
Luke glanced at Dumbledore who was standing beside him, and asked with some doubts.
"You know him?"
On the other side, Meade showed an excited look on his face the moment he saw Dumbledore.It was like seeing a savior.He finally got rid of the group of women around him.Then he walked quickly in the direction of Dumbledore.
"Long time no see, Dumbledore!"
There was a relieved smile on his face, but also a hint of peace of mind.
And Dumbledore went up to meet him, opened his arms, and said with a smile, "It's been 30 years! It's really been a long time."
After hugging, he quickly pulled Mead to Luke's side, and then gave Luke a wink.
Luke understood and squeezed directly from his mute ball that hung himself around his neck.The silent enchantment unfolded invisible.
"Professor, would you like to introduce me first?"
Luke had a curious look on his face, and he could tell at a glance that something was wrong with the person in front of him, he should be a mermaid.Or rather, a mermaid.
After all, the definition of a mermaid in the magic world is not a fish, but a human.
Although some mermaids don't think so.
Dumbledore looked at Meade with a look of genuine joy on his face.
"Let me introduce you, this is Mead Alan. Mermaids from the Deep Sea Empire, which is the largest mermaid country in the world and the most civilized mermaid country. But they don't often appear in the sight of wizards and Muggles among."
This is not often, it refers to the frequency of their appearance, and also the frequency of their dealings between them.
The mermaids of the deep sea empire rarely have anything to do with the wizarding world.And those mermaids who don't live in the sea keep secrets about the deep sea empire.Therefore, the name of the Deep Sea Empire is rarely known, let alone anyone who has actually dealt with it.
Luke felt a little emotional for a while when he heard these terms that he had never heard before.
Even after coming to this world, he has seen many people and things that he hadn't seen in the original book, and he has accumulated the knowledge of the entire Gunter family, but now he still has a lot of things he doesn't understand, many don't understand or even don't know something.
A little bit of knowledge can never become the leaf that hinders you.
"This is my student, Luke Gaunt of the Gunter family. You should be able to tell that this kid is a genius."
When Dumbledore said this, the pride on his face did not seem fake.Now, as an educator, what he should be most proud of is that he has cultivated an excellent student.
Students like Luke are enough to be the pride of any educator.Although the relationship between the growth of this student and their professors is really not that great.
Dumbledore's words were naturally recognized by Mead.He could feel that, regardless of the level of magic power, the mental power of the little boy in front of him was truly beyond ordinary people.
"Hello there."
Luke stretched out his hand without hesitation, with a reserved and polite smile on his face.
"Hello there."
Meade took Luke's hand and returned a polite smile.
Seriously, Dumbledore was visibly relieved to see Luke just smiling politely.After all, seeing this smile, he basically knew that Luke had no intention of cheating Meade.
If Luke smiled brightly and brightly, then...he could only mourn in silence for his friend.
"What are you doing here?" After Dumbledore was overjoyed, he naturally threw out his doubts.
Haven't heard of the Deep Sea Empire, and didn't know there is a group of mermaids in the sea?That's really not your ignorance.If you know it, it means you are really good.But if you haven't heard of it, it doesn't mean you can't do it.
From this point, it is also understandable why Dumbledore has such doubts.
The mermaid of the Deep Sea Empire arrived on a human cruise ship, pretending to be
Not even a big fanfare.For a slightly more knowledgeable person like Dumbledore, this is simply an incredible thing.
Mead was also very happy looking at this old friend he hadn't seen for a long time in front of him. He knew Dumbledore's level of strength 30 years ago.Although 30 years have passed now, Dumbledore has changed from an old man to an even older man.But Mead could feel it.Dumbledore's strength is probably not weaker than back then.
Possibly suffered from years of physical and mental exertion.But this does not mean that Dumbledore's strength has also been reduced.The combat power system of a wizard cannot be said to be more demonic as he gets older.But the downward arc does appear to be sluggish.
In other words, now Dumbledore can easily deal with the two wizards who attacked the princess.
"A girl close to me was taken away by two wizards. The two of them are hiding on this ship now. And we don't want to appear in the cause of mankind. So I am investigating the location of the two wizards , By the way, see if there is any way to save that girl."
Mead said helplessly, "But it doesn't seem like there is any good chance. If we continue like this, we can only wait for the rescue team from the Deep Sea Empire to come over."
As he said this, Dumbledore and Luke exchanged glances.
Both of them saw the meaning in the other's eyes.
"True, but not quite true."
Both have their own way of observing the truth of what the other is saying.They could all see that Mead was telling the truth, only half-truths.
"Your friend is not very honest."
"Did you see those two wizards?"
"I saw one. As long as the other is not Grindelwald, we can handle it."
"That's fine."
"Oh, then maybe the two of us can help."
Dumbledore said with a smile.Luke also nodded on the side.Of course, the two of them will not sit idly by.The journey is still long, so it is not bad to have such a thing to do to relieve boredom.
What's more, they can see that behind this matter may really bring them a little surprise.After all, the Deep Sea Empire itself is something that no one has had much contact with.This really got Luke interested.
The mermaid, I want to be a mermaid with a very advanced civilization.How valuable is this research!
It seems that today's Luke will also be able to leave something in his own research notes that his predecessors have not mentioned.
"Grateful!"
Seeing the two people who agreed to help without hesitation, Meade was filled with emotion.There is the feeling of being helped by friends.There is also the guilt of having cheated on a friend.
This made him a little messy for a while.However, the state of the whole person has also changed from being embarrassed at the beginning to becoming quite positive.
"That shouldn't be too late. I saw one of those two wizards just now. A skinny yellow-haired one?"
Luke said without hesitation.
His positive attitude made Mead feel happy, but also more ashamed.
But he didn't mean to tell Luke and Dumbledore the true identity of the princess.He and Dumbledore were just friends who had met a few times and had adventures together.Even if he thought he could entrust his life to Dumbledore.But the importance of Her Royal Highness is far beyond that of his lowly life.
So he will not take risks, and will not gamble on the greed of Dumbledore and the child named Luke Gaunt in front of him.
That's not what the wise do.
Looking at Meade with a moving expression, Dumbledore suddenly thought of something strange.
"Mead, why don't you fight directly? Two wizards, if Luke can deal with it, it shouldn't be too difficult for you to deal with it."
Of course he didn't think Meade would do this kind of thing alone.Even without considering the truth behind Meade's lie.Even if you take the lie seriously, the boy
The son's parents must be there too, right?
Now if they are not on the ship now, it means they are wary of something.
Scared of wizards?No, those two wizards really weren't necessarily Mead's opponents.When the wizard's spell falls on the scales of a normal mermaid, its power will be greatly reduced.The mermaids of the Deep Sea Empire, for unknown reasons, have even stronger defenses.Therefore, when a wizard faces the mermaids of the Deep Sea Empire one-on-one, if the magic power is equal, it is basically difficult to win.
Dumbledore was well aware of this.
So... is it the ordinary humans on this ship that make them so afraid?
This information made Dumbledore feel a little surprised.Mermaids... afraid of humans?
And Luke obviously understood what Dumbledore meant, but he was not that surprised, he also knew the characteristics of mermaids.then……
"Your scales, can't stop the impact of those physical props?"
As he spoke, he made a gun gesture with his hand.
Seeing Luke's expression, Meade nodded awkwardly and said, "Our scales can protect against magic, but they are indeed relatively weak against things like swords. And the human thing called a "gun" , The power of more than 100 years ago is not that great. "
More than 100 years... For mermaids, this time span is not very long, but for humans, this time span is their generation.
There are too many things that can be done in the past 100 years.
Luke got an affirmative answer, so he looked at Dumbledore.Dumbledore also gets a lot of time.There is also a certain understanding of Muggle stuff.But in terms of weapons, it is indeed his blind spot...
However, the mermaid's fear of Muggles still touched him a little.
"It turns out that Muggles are already regarded as a strong enemy by so many races?"
He asked himself in his heart.But can't get any answer.
Meade looked at Dumbledore, whose face suddenly changed for some reason, with a puzzled expression.
what happened?
Bai Mao also wanted to ask this question.
He still held the food he brought back from the restaurant in his hand.The portion is quite a bit, it's not just for what's in the case.It was also for him to eat.He wanted to sit quietly on the table and have a good meal.But when he thought of the box lying on the bed, he felt all sorts of uneasy.Even if he is very clear, he has added all the protective magic he can add to that door.And some cautionary magic.And he also specially enhanced the sensitivity of warning magic.As long as someone touches that door, he will find out and stop the other party in time.
But even so, he still couldn't sit still, he could only hurry back with some food, thinking about keeping an eye on that dangerous box all the time.
But when he got really close, he saw what was in front of him.The spells he arranged before have all been destroyed now, and the door has obviously been opened.
The food in his hand fell to the ground uncontrollably.The expression on his face became extremely serious.
The hand has drawn the wand from the waist.You have to ask him if he knows who is in the room.How could he not know.If these spells were broken violently, it would be impossible for him not to notice.
Then there can only be someone who fully understands his finality, and researches one by one a solution method that does not alarm him.
In other words, this person must be quite familiar with him, and has been with him for a long time, at least he has seen these spells of him more than once.
This means that this person can only be one person.
"Torris! You betrayed me!"
Bai Mao said viciously at the door.
He was holding a wooden stick with a fierce and hideous expression on his face.
This made some Muggles around him subconsciously stay away from him.At the same time, not far away, he looked at this man who was facing a half-open door, as if he was facing a big enemy, and couldn't stop whispering.
And as time went by, more and more people gathered around.
This naturally attracted Luke's attention.
In other words, in such a boat of Muggles, the magic power of wizards is as conspicuous as a searchlight in the dark in the eyes of those who can perceive magic power.
And it seemed that there was something exciting on board that was worth seeing.With a glance from a distance, they saw the shining magic aggregate.
That was obviously one of the wizards.
"It looks like we found our target pretty easily."
Although Luke said it in a joking tone.But in fact, there was no smile on his face.The expressions of the two people around him were different, but neither of them looked relaxed.
It's very simple, the white hair is like an enemy, but in their field of vision, there is no other source of magic power.
No, you can't say that.
should say.
They saw a source of magic that was draining away.And this magic power source has basically been lost.
This situation can only mean one thing...
"The yellow hair was killed... who killed it?"
Luke asked suspiciously.
