I swung a sword at Hogwarts

John used his wand to remove the key necklace, and the light around him dimmed.

"What is this key for?"

As an alchemist, John checked the key first.

There is an unlocking magic hidden in this key. Unlike the unlocking spell, this magic is a protective spell.

"Something like a Secret Keeper under the Fidelius Charm," he concluded, stuffing the key into his pocket.

That protected place, the entrance can only be found with a key.

If something is being protected with such fanfare, it might be something valuable.

Pulling out the staff, the bookshelves around John began to return to their original positions.

The light on the ground confirmed John's guess that this wizard tower was a huge magic amplification prop.

To know the specific effects, John has to walk the entire tower.

He continued to walk upwards.

Arriving at the sixth floor, there is a garden with lush green plants and criss-crossing roads that turn it into a maze.

It took John some time to walk out and reach the seventh floor.

There is a school hidden here.

Unlike Hogwarts, the school here gives people a depressing feeling, and everything inside is uniform.

The classrooms were exactly the same, as if they were copied by a cloning spell.

The way up was hidden above a pool filled with eels that had long since died.

There are many star models on the eighth floor, and the flying stars simulate the universe.

This room seemed as vast as the universe. John walked around but couldn't find the entrance to the ninth floor.

He stopped and heard footsteps.

The moment he got close, he turned around and grabbed the dagger that was stabbing at him.

With a twist of his right hand, he snatched the exquisite knife and put it against the man's neck.

It seemed that he did not expect John to react so quickly. The man stiffened all over and goose bumps appeared on his slender white neck due to the cold.

John stared at the other man.

Long, silky blond hair, grey-blue eyes and fair skin.

After a brief pause for breathing, the woman stared at John with her eyes.

"Who are you? Why are you here? How did you get in?" The beautiful woman asked three questions in a row, looking very angry.

John's face turned cold, "This is what I want to ask you, who are you?"

This was the second person to appear in the wizard tower, so John naturally would not miss the opportunity to explore.

The woman wanted to be tough, but the cold feeling on her neck made her reluctantly say, "I am the master here, Emily."

"Master?" John looked him up and down suspiciously.

His suspicion hurt Emily's heart, and she said stubbornly, "It will happen sooner or later."

Emily noticed the sword on John's back and the staff in his left hand, and her face changed drastically.

"You pulled out the Gray Crystal Staff?" Emily cursed, "You stupid groundhog, you will let the Black Iron Blood Lord out!"

"Then the whole city will be plunged into disaster."

Emily yelled at John, calling him a groundhog, which made John's face turn dark.

Doesn't this guy realize his current situation?

But Emily seemed to have given up hope. "Now, when the Blood Lord finds us, we'll die here. Where did you come from, you stupid fool!"

...

Chapter 394 I Rescued the Witch

Reckless man?

I?

John fell into deep thought, considering whether to put a tongue-locking curse on the mouth of this chatterbox.

Seeing that Emily seemed to have given up hope, John simply put down the knife.

He asked casually, "What is this place? And what is that Black Iron Blood Lord?"

Emily no longer had any hope, and she didn't want to hide anything anymore.

"This is the Black Hawk Tower. The wizards of the independent wizard faction conducted research here. Later, they made a bold study, which led to the disappearance of wizards in the entire tower."

Emily knew this place very well. She rolled her eyes at John and said, "As for the Black Iron Blood Lord, he is a very dangerous guy."

"He was originally the viscount of this city. He later held me hostage and pried open the Black Eagle Tower to get inside, intending to take away the treasures inside."

At this point, Emily sneered, "It's a pity that he was wrong. He thought that if he controlled the wizard, he could control magic. But he was backfired and turned into a blood lord."

"I never thought that I could use magic to close this place so that he couldn't get out."

"The Blood Lord's weakness is sound. I used my remaining magic power to summon a banshee to block his way out, and blocked the exit with the staff."

Emily laughed at John and said, "It's a pity that you, a reckless man, ruined everything. Now everything is over. If Blood Lord finds the body, no one can stop him."

While John was thinking, he looked up at Emily strangely, and asked, "Is the Blood Lord you're talking about the guy made of blood?"

"Yes, it was him. He was looking for me everywhere. Fortunately, I hid on the eighth floor and he couldn't find me." Emily responded, not noticing anything wrong.

John said with a strange look on his face: "If it was that guy, he should be dead."

"Don't be ridiculous, how could he..." Emily glared at John in dissatisfaction.

But soon, Emily realized something, and she asked in horror: "Didn't you meet the Blood Lord when you came up here?"

"I did," John nodded honestly, "and I killed him."

"Impossible!" Emily said excitedly, "You are lying to me. It is impossible for an ordinary person to kill him."

As she spoke, she saw the pattern of the sword on John's back and screamed in shock, "Are you a witcher? No, no, a witcher can't kill him."

Emily suspected that John was trying to trick her into leaving here.

But John raised his hand silently, and a flame bloomed in his hand.

"I burned it with fire."

A simple sentence reveals the truth.

Emily was confused. Why would an exorcist use magic?

It is true that some exorcists have these little tricks, but most of them are similar to shock waves.

In the end, Emily accepted reality.

She doubted her life and said, "The person who forced me to be trapped in this tower for a long time was killed just like that?"

She thought of something and asked, "The person who cast the spell yesterday was you?"

John recalled that he had used a cleansing spell.

This left Emily speechless. She thought it was a wizard, so she opened the door specifically to let the wizard in so that they could join forces to deal with the Blood Lord.

As a result, not only did an exorcist come, but he also killed the Blood Duke directly.

This made Emily's previous efforts seem worthless.

"By the way, where is the ninth floor of this tower?" John still couldn't find the entrance to the ninth floor.

Emily retorted, "There is no ninth floor."

John thought, there is no ninth floor?

Emily stayed here for a long time, and although she did so to avoid the Blood Lord, she also learned a lot about the place.

Most of the Blood Dukes stayed on the fifth floor, hoping to escape from the Black Hawk Tower through the knowledge there.

The upper floors became Emily's place to explore.

She could confirm that there was no ninth floor here.

This tower was originally built by the independent wizards. They had different beliefs from other wizards and wanted to cultivate their own wizard army by occupying cities.

Unfortunately, it was not implemented and all disappeared because of the failure of the experiment.

Emily comes from a prominent family. She is the royal wizard of her country.

He was deceived into believing that there were magical creatures causing trouble, and was eventually abducted by Viscount Dark Iron and brought to the Black Eagle Tower.

At the same time, she also has the idea of ​​investigating the Black Hawk Tower.

Placing a notebook on the table on the seventh floor, Emily said, "This is all the information I could find about the Black Hawk Tower. Demon Hunter, now that you have solved the Blood Lord, I don't mind sharing some with you."

John opened it and saw the notes Emily had collected from the Black Hawk Tower information.

One of the words caught John's attention.

"Monumental monument?"

He looked up at Emily, hoping for an answer.

Emily didn't understand this either, and said, "It seems that the main research direction of the Black Hawk Tower is the Monolith, and the ninth floor you mentioned should be the place where the Monolith is studied."

"The disappearance of that group of wizards is most likely related to the Monolith."

John nodded when he heard this, and then put the book in his pocket very naturally.

Emily's eyes widened, "What did you do?"

"Isn't this the reward you gave me?" John waved his hand generously, "I don't want the money, use this to pay off the debt."

Are you calling me a groundhog?

I generally don't hold grudges and usually take revenge on the spot.

Emily tried to snatch it back, but John suppressed her with one hand.

In the end, Emily had no choice but to promise to re-copy it for John.

...

The two walked out of the black tower.

Emily had been away for too long, she had to go back as soon as possible to report to the king.

"If you really want to know about the ninth floor, then go to the royal capital. Maybe someone there knows it." Emily said before leaving.

She offered to buy the staff from John, and he knew she was hiding something.

They came for the staff, which was left behind by the independent wizard.

The key inside has been taken away by myself, so the staff is useless.

Plus, this thing wasn't suitable for John, he was used to using a wand.

So John simply asked for a huge sum of money, not only did Emily have to walk back to the capital, but she also owed John a large sum of gold.

Even though he dealt with the Banshee and the Blood Duke, Kang Sang's gloom did not dissipate.

John knew that this was because of the existence of the black tower. As long as the tower existed, Kangsang would remain in this state.

Staring at the black tower, John finally ignored it.

He wasn't sure if destroying the Black Tower would have more serious consequences.

He returned to the tavern and found that it was particularly lively today.

The smile on Heiberg's face never stopped. He drank glass after glass of wine along with the income of copper and silver coins.

This is totally different from yesterday.

Libby was also given a free glass of wine by Heiberg, who was in a good mood. Libby, who tried this flavor for the first time, was so spicy that her eyes were filled with tears.

Seeing John coming back, Libby ran over immediately.
