Relying on magic games to transcend reality

“Hey, quick, camera, lighting board, point this way!” The reporter turned his head and waved, directing the staff to set up the scene.

Well… although the environment was a bit simple, and he set out in a hurry and only brought a few tools, the final result did not meet his ideal requirements.

But the strong never complain about the environment.

Ignoring the scorching sun above his head and the sweat that was quickly oozing out of his forehead, he raised the microphone and began his opening remarks into the camera.

“Ladies and gentlemen in front of the television, we are honored to have the Mike family for an interview.

They were the first to arrive on the East Coast and witnessed the duel between wizards and the transformation of mountains into desert.

Now, they explore deep into the wonderland created by magic, what are they looking for?

What does it feel like to be in close contact with magic? What is that big fish flying in the sky? Who is the Oriental man standing on the back of the fish?

Okay, let’s find out the answer right away!”

After the passionate speech, the reporter stepped back, revealing a middle-aged man with his hands on his hips behind him.

“Mike, Mr. Mike, can I call you that?”

“of course.”

“Then let’s get to the point, Mr. Mac, you saw Mr. Dumbledore perform magic with your own eyes, right?”

“Yes, although I couldn’t see the movements clearly because the distance was too far, but the magic wand was definitely used.”

“What kind of magic wand is that?”

“Like I said, it was too far away so I couldn’t see it clearly.”

“That’s a shame, let’s move on to the next question.

Mr. Mac, what do you think that fish floating in the air is?”

The middle-aged man shrugged. “It looks like a whale. My nine-year-old nephew who likes Eastern culture told me that it is called Kunpeng.”

The reporter had obviously done his homework, and as soon as he heard the word “Kunpeng”, he immediately faced the camera and explained: “Kunpeng is a creature in Chinese mythology.

Legend has it that it is extremely large, and has two forms that can be switched freely.”

After that, he turned to Mike and said, “Young man with white hair who flew out from Kunpeng’s back, do you have any clues?”

“He seems very strong. It can be seen from Mr. Dumbledore’s attitude.”

“Yes, there is also a terrifying crack that cuts off the desert.” The reporter agreed and then asked, “Mr. Mike, do you think he is related to the man who appeared at the magic show a few months ago?”

“Well, their outfits and hairstyles seemed to be the same, but I was very far away both times and didn’t see the details of their appearance.” Mike scratched his head awkwardly.

“It seems you are as unlucky as me.” The reporter humorously helped Mike relieve the embarrassment of not knowing anything, and then asked about things that everyone was concerned about.

“Okay, I think the audience can’t wait any longer.

Mr. Mike, what are you and your family looking for in this desert?”

“Some say Mr. Dumbledore buried treasure in the desert.”

“really?”

“I did hear them.”

“who are they?”

“It’s that group of rich people and congressmen.”

“Oh!” the reporter exclaimed, “That doesn’t sound like a rumor.”

“Yes, and before we set off, I found that they were instructing their assistants to mobilize equipment to go deep into the desert.”

“Well, now things are getting interesting.”

The reporter faced the camera again and said, “Thank you very much for Mr. Mike’s answer. He helped us uncover a little bit of the mystery behind magic.

What is beneath the veil, and what is Mr. Dumbledore’s treasure, we will continue to follow up and report for you.”

The staff put down the camera, and the reporter fulfilled his promise and took Mike and his family into the helicopter, rushing towards the center of the desert.

“Things are going the way we expected.”

In front of the makeshift two-story building, a wealthy man sat on a wooden chair, opened the cover of his laptop on the table, and smiled as he told the people around him: “The guys in the live broadcast are the last team left.

He was only halfway to the center of the desert, and the main force was obviously about to arrive.”

“Drinking water and food are also arriving soon. I’m sure the thirsty and hungry explorers won’t mind spending ten times the price to buy supplies that can sustain their lives.”

A man standing a little further away turned around and said, “I think this matter needs to be discussed.”

The rich man looked at him and said, “Look, you are so greedy that you actually show kindness. Are you afraid?”

“It’s nothing to be ashamed of, I am terrified.”

He looked out at the desert ahead and said, “You have to understand what you are facing.”

“You can rest assured. The wizards at Hogwarts won’t care about little people like us. Besides, we haven’t done anything really evil. We’re just selling some food and water, which is a little expensive at most.”

The rich man stood up and said a famous saying that has been widely circulated: “When the profit reaches 300%, they dare to risk being hanged.”

The man’s gaze shifted from the yellow sand to the rich man, his eyes revealing sarcasm: “The guy who said this knows very well that he will not be sentenced to death by hanging.”

“You really…”

The faint sound of a car engine interrupted them, and the two of them, along with the crowd watching the excitement nearby, looked over.

A Rolls-Royce was sandwiched between a convoy of more than ten military jeeps, driving along the asphalt road.

The Queen’s car?

They looked at each other and saw the confusion and solemnity in each other’s eyes.

Although the queen had certain real power in the kingdom half a year ago, she was just a decoration most of the time and was definitely not enough to make them nervous.

Six months later, things have clearly changed.

After gaining the friendship of Hogwarts, the Queen did not make any drastic moves to seize power, and most of the power remained in their control.

But the Queen’s voice still crushed them, and even their master, His Royal Highness Prince Sulman, no longer had any strange thoughts.

Under the gaze of the crowd, the convoy slowly stopped at the roadside in front of the building.

Li Cong, who was wearing a tuxedo, got out from the passenger seat and quickly opened the back door. The queen, who was wearing casual clothes, walked out and came in front of them.

“Your Majesty, how are you?”

She seemed to be in a low mood, without her usual friendly smile on her face, and she didn’t even respond to everyone’s greetings. She said directly: “Everyone,

I heard some bad things.”

After a brief pause, she glanced at the pale faces of several people and said, “You are bringing disaster to the kingdom.”

“But Your Majesty, Hogwarts has no right to interfere with the autonomy of the kingdom…”

The cold gaze was like a sharp blade cutting his body. He trembled all over and closed his mouth.

After staring at him for a while, the queen retracted her gaze and said, “I don’t expect my stupid brain, which has been corrupted by greed, to play the role it should play.

But you should be very clear about the history of the kingdom. The weak are not worthy of, nor can they demand, the strong. “

The air was heavy and everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak under the pressure of her tyrannical aura.

After a long while, a woman who was somewhat friendly with the Queen finally spoke up: “Your Majesty, would Hogwarts be interested in our internal affairs, or market transactions?”

“will not.”

Before they could be happy, she added, “But the principal will definitely not be happy. Someone is cheating in his name.”

After hearing this, they finally realized that the queen came here in a threatening manner not because she wanted to sell supplies at high prices, but because they and others used magic to trick people into the desert.

“Your Majesty.” Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after understanding what was going on. Someone said, “We are just casually chatting and speculating among friends. It is up to others to choose to believe or doubt.”

The queen was so angry that she laughed: “What are you thinking?

Playing with the ridiculous rules you make up with a magician who can take your lives at no cost?

Wake up! “

Everyone was stunned, and it took them a long time to come back to their senses from the blinding greed and wonder what stupid thing they were doing.

Can’t you punish yourself without proper reason and solid evidence?

That is a supernatural being, a supernatural being who can turn mountains into deserts, a supernatural being who can create mushroom clouds. Does he need an excuse to attack himself?

Even if he wiped out my entire family, what would that do?

He doesn’t have to bear any loss or cost, it’s as easy as squashing an annoying ant in front of his door.

Looking at the pale faces of the people, the Queen felt that they should understand, so she turned and walked towards the car: “Get everyone out before the principal comes to the door, otherwise no one can save you.”

The convoy drove away to the far end of the highway, and only when they turned a corner and disappeared behind the hillside did they seem to be fished out of the water. They were soaking wet and shouted to their assistants to mobilize transportation to go into the desert to pick them up.

…………

“She’s still thoughtful. Give her some face.”

Zhang Mu, who was floating in the sky with the shadow technique, looked down at a group of “big shots” busying themselves, and shook his head and laughed to himself.

After controlling the Dumbledore doll to send Toby and the other two back to London, he drove Kunpeng back to NH and entered the “world”. Then he returned to the east coast to see what the situation was.

Zhang Mu expected that the crowd who came to watch the extraordinary war would enter the desert.

But what he didn’t expect was that this group of wealthy people, who learned from the Queen that there was no treasure inside, actually started selling “shovels” under his name.

To be honest, from some perspectives, Zhang Mu still admires them very much.

While recovering from the shock, he spotted business opportunities and almost immediately formulated a detailed plan, which he implemented simultaneously with the allocation of materials. It would be a lie to say that he was not strong.

It’s just not being used in the right way.

If the queen had arrived five minutes later, Zhang Mu would have shown up and thrown a rock down.

The reason is actually what the Queen thinks.

He dares to use my name to make dirty money. I’m afraid he doesn’t know how to write the word death.

After watching for a while from high in the sky to make sure that the people below were not just talking, Zhang Mu turned around and flew towards the desert, ready to take a look to see if anyone was in danger.

After flying for a while, I didn’t see anyone in danger.
