Hogwarts Summoning Guide

Before we knew it, evening had fallen. The magnificent London Bridge was brightly lit, its four obelisk-shaped pillars gleaming in gold, truly leaving a lasting impression. Cars and people bustled across the bridge, while small boats crisscrossed below, creating a lively scene.

"Do you know where the entrance is?" Bai Lin unfurled a wisp of black mist. Even though it was night, it was best not to let Muggles look up and see "A Cloud in the Northwest Mysterious Sky".

Eddie shook his head a little embarrassedly and said, "I only know it's under the bridge, but I don't know about the entrance..."

George chimed in, "It could be a phone booth over there, or it could be a toilet stall... Anyway, the Ministry of Magic just loves to pull this kind of stunt!"

"I'll do it!" Luna's pupils emitted a faint purple light. As she whispered, a dark shadow rose from her wand. Before anyone could see what it was, the shadow "whooshed!" and flew towards the bridge below. As it approached the bridge tower, it suddenly dispersed into dozens of fainter shadows, like a group of ubiquitous ghosts, and slipped into the doors and windows of the bridge tower.

Only Bai Lin and Yan Nishuang saw clearly that they were a group of "little devils," or "little demons" as described in Western religions. Luna must have been exposed to this unorthodox knowledge a long time ago, but she carefully hid it. With her "indifferent" and "righteous" nature, she would never use this knowledge and ability to do evil.

Now that she has received Bai Lin's "Chaos" faction enlightenment, her thinking has also undergone a subtle change. She no longer thinks that these "demonic magic" are anything that "harms others". As long as she uses these abilities for good, there is nothing to hide.

But ten minutes had passed since the kids crawled into the bridge tower, and Luna's expression was becoming increasingly strange, as if she had seen many things she couldn't understand. One moment she was frowning, the next she was grinning. The twins wanted to ask her what she had seen, but Hermione stopped them, telling them not to disturb Luna.

Bai Lin intuitively felt that Luna had found the path, but was unraveling some kind of mystery, like cracking a combination lock on a door.

Regardless of what the group of magicians in mid-air were busy with, a cruise ship slowly passed under the bridge. On board, a group of Eastern children who had come to London for study tours were singing in unison with their teacher, looking very happy.

"London Bridge is Falling Down! Falling Down Falling Down..." The children sang this old song about London Bridge with great joy. In the East, this would be considered very unlucky. It's hard to imagine a group of students singing about a building collapsing in front of a landmark in the capital. But in London, it's perfectly normal. This song has been sung for hundreds of years, and London Bridge has collapsed, been rebuilt, collapsed again, and been rebuilt again, which is why it is what it is today.

Historically, there have been periods when, upon the death of a British king, agents used the code phrase "London Bridge is Falling Down" to orchestrate the transfer of power.

Nowadays, when many children sing nursery rhymes, they often interpret Falling Down as the shape of London Bridge, where the bridge splits and then rejoins in the middle as large ships pass through.

But today was different. When the children's boat was a few hundred meters away from under the bridge, just as they finished singing their lullaby, they heard a deafening crash behind them. The teachers and children turned around in alarm and saw the magnificent, splendid London Bridge, a source of pride for countless Britons, as if it had been violently pushed up by a huge force from underground and was beginning to fall apart.

First, the steel cables on both sides of the bridge seemed to be stretched taut by a tremendous force. Then, with a muffled thud, the cables snapped one after another like firecrackers. Immediately afterwards, the two magnificent bridge towers began to shake violently, and the covered bridge between the two towers began to collapse. The unfortunate tourists on the covered bridge screamed as they fell towards the main bridge below along with the snapped steel beams, seemingly doomed.

Next, the two bridge towers began to collapse, and in less than a minute, this magnificent landmark would be reduced to rubble.

"Oh no, they've discovered us! The Church of Hastur has activated the self-destruct mechanism for the underground base!" Luna cried out in panic as the purple light in her eyes went out.

"Scatter, go rescue people, I'll force my way in!" Bai Lin urgently issued the order. No matter how weak the children were, they could at least fly on broomsticks and use the Levitation Charm. Everyone responded and took off, no longer caring about the laws related to wizarding secrecy. Led by Harry, they flew towards the collapsing London Bridge.

Bai Lin and Yan Nishuang transformed into two golden beams of light and swiftly slipped into the gaps between the collapsing bridge. With superhuman eyesight and senses, Bai Lin had already found the path explored by the little devils. They quickly slipped through stairs, rooms, and wall cracks until they appeared in an underground passage.

The underground passage was like it had dozens of explosives planted inside, with violent explosions occurring from time to time. However, these were all wizard magic, and unlike physical explosions, they did not instantly detonate the entire passage. There were still some limitations to magic, which gave Bai Lin some room to exploit. With a thought, his disordered black and purple elemental energy spread like mist, severing the control channels of all remote sensing magic. The magic bombs that had not been detonated immediately went silent.

The two quickly passed through the passage and arrived at the gate at the deepest part. Several Luna's little devils were still wandering around, unable to find the way in. Yan Nishuang stepped forward, stretched out two fingers, and instantly unleashed a powerful force like thunder, flood, or volcanic eruption. It was the method of borrowing the power of heaven and earth in the Qingfeng Mountain Sword Technique. The sword energy swept open the stone gate in front of them, revealing a staircase leading to a deeper place.

The two exchanged a glance. Now it was all about speed. The enemy must have started to retreat, but it was impossible for them to pack up and take everything in the underground base in an instant. Their figures were like two streaks of light, and they instantly appeared at the deepest part of the passage. Bai Lin kicked open the huge stone door at the end of the passage, which was guarded by dozens of gargoyles. The gargoyles had just awakened when they were smashed into rubble by countless black and purple ice rain. It was absolutely brutal and direct.

Behind the main gate was a gloomy yet magnificent hall, similar to the underground spaces of Hogwarts. The hall was filled with countless glass jars, each over three meters tall. A quick glance revealed that it was practically a replica of the sealing system in the Summoning Encyclopedia. Various exotic beasts from the magical world, including experimental subjects of intelligent races such as centaurs, vampires, giants, and demi-humans, were immersed in the glass jars. Without exception, tiny, disgusting yellow tentacles were protruding from their limbs.

A pink-clad figure, accompanied by dozens of black-clad guards, remained in the center of the hall, seemingly ready to await Bai Lin's arrival.

"Umbridge!" Bai Lin recognized her at a glance. He had a feeling that his uncle Fudge was probably in grave danger. Umbridge had taken control of all the resources of the British Ministry of Magic and had completely defected to the Church of Hastur. Everything before him explained everything. The Church of Hastur wanted to control the biological samples of the entire magical world and then create a monster army that could rule, enslave, or even destroy the entire world.
