Chapter 294: The Book Hidden in the Ice (2 in 1)

Chapter 294: The Book Hidden in the Ice (2 in 1)

The curse representing death exploded on Nick's terrified face, but Nick was still Nick, he did not even have any change in the expression on his face.

When Jon perceived that he could not avoid the curse, and even prepared to die, the curse unexpectedly fell on the petrified Nick!

Good things come to good people!

He was glad that he had refused Gabrielle's attempt to scribble on Nick's face and switched him to a position in front of him to protect him, then he turned to the side and counterattacked without saying a word!

"Confringo!"

He did not retaliate with the same killing curse, not because Jon was soft-hearted, but because he clearly understood that with three people on the other side, even if his killing curse could take out one of them with precision, the other two would find an opening and do the same in return.

That's why a wide-range spell like a blasting curse is undoubtedly the best choice.

"Boom!"

The Death Eaters who had seen that one of the killing curses had already hit Jon were nearly defenceless against the fact that he not only did not die but actually could counterattack.

The magic affects reality, the strong explosion caused by the blast instantly exploded the shield charm on the three.

After following Grindelwald to study and deepen the dark magic for two months, the dark magic power that Jon now uses can be said to be different from what it used to be.

Before this, his blasting curse at most shattered the shield charm of the Death Eaters, then no longer have any kind of offensive power, but now, the remaining power directly blows the three Death Eaters flying out!

Jon is not confused by the temporary success of the battle, after the three Death Eaters were blown away, he just casually made a shot of the Invisible sword curse, then took Gabrielle, and at the same time switched the helpful Nick as a shield to his back again, and began to quickly flee this area.

The three Death Eaters were obviously using a disillusionment charm to ambush here, Jon is not clear for the moment by what means they have learned their route of travel, not to mention it is not clear whether they have more helpers coming in addition to the three Death Eaters. New novel chapters are published on

The labyrinth is not like the outside, the space here is narrow, as long as more than five people surrounded Jon back and forth, then he basically can not dodge all the spells shot at him, as evidenced by the sneak attack just now, one of the three shots of killing curse hit him.

The confined space doesn't allow Jon to make better use of his speed and flight advantages, so he can only retreat as quickly as possible, and then see the exact situation after getting rid of these three people.

Jon evacuated just in time, the small space that limits his ability also brought maximum pay-offs to his blasting curse, the three Death Eaters were blown to dust, and the one who faced Jon directly even had two fingers blown off!

When they messily dodged the Invisible sword curse that Jon used for cover afterwards by looking at his aim, they no longer could see Jon's figure in front of them.

The Death Eater whose fingers were blown off was obviously the leader of this three-man squad, and his face showed a distorted expression caused by pain as his body trembled while picking up the two mangled fingers from the ground.

"How long has it been since the letter to Lord Lestrange was sent over?"

His face was filled with a grimace, and his wand was pinned to his waist as two of his men panicked and pulled out potions and poured them on his amputated knuckles, which were still bleeding and shaking violently while answering.

"Just less than half an hour, Captain, we sent out the letter when the arrangement we left on that path was triggered before, according to the size of this labyrinth, if Lord Lestrange is far away from us, then it will take at least three days for them to receive the letter and then to rush over."

"Three days? Three days are more than enough time for them to collect our bodies!"

The captain with the broken finger didn't know if he was venting over the constant sharp pain coming from his hand, or if he was really just simply expressing his displeasure and cursing.

"This damn labyrinth! Why can't we just Apparate? Even if everyone was equipped with a magic broom, there's no way we could get immediate support in such a short amount of time! Where are the paper planes to ask for nearby support? Have you released them yet? Tell the other idiots that we found him at this location! Tell those shitheads to start encircling this area immediately!"

The other Death Eater he questioned said in a panic.

"I released the paper planes the first time you handed it to me, Captain, but the closest squad to us seems a bit far away"

Just before he finished his sentence, a thin sound of footsteps came from far and near to their rear. The three Death Eaters kept the highest alert at the first opportunity, and even the captain with the broken finger endured the severe pain and held his wand tightly in his left hand.

Soon, a fluttering paper plane appeared in their field of vision.

After looking at this paper plane, the three Death Eaters all breathed a sigh of relief, and then each of them looked at the other three Death Eaters who followed the paper plane to find them just now.

Gabrielle said excitedly as she lowered her giddy voice.

Jon was also in high spirits.

"Can you see what's placed inside?"

"A book, one that's only as big as a notebook."

Gabrielle's description made Jon slightly disappointed, he had expected to find the gem left behind by Adrien right here, but it is better to get something than nothing.

Although Gabrielle was able to cross the ice and access the book, she wasn't able to bring it out.

The good thing is that according to her description, this part of the ice where the object had been hidden was not very thick, Jon estimated, a blasting curse is enough for that layer of ice to be broken.

The sound and movement of that spell won't be that light, so after he succeeded in breaking the ice and taking out the book that Gabrielle saw, he immediately used the repairing charm on the broken part right away.

Then instead of immediately examining the book, he took Gabrielle and immediately shifted locations with the cloak of invisibility draped over them.

Within a minute after they left, a squad of Death Eaters hurriedly arrived at the place where Jon and the others had been before.

But after carefully checking the surroundings they did not find a movement of anyone. But they did not leave it at that, instead, they used the magic paper plane to report the discovery to their higher-ups.

The paper plane transmission speed can only be considered ordinary, not even as fast as the owl delivering letters.

But in the cold Arctic, no owl can simply work in this place, so the Death Eaters can only use this inefficient method.

And on Jon's side, after he came to a fairly safe place, he hid with Gabrielle under the cloak of invisibility and opened the book that had a very old cover.

However, what disappointed him was that the content written in this book was not written in English, it looked somewhat like German, which Jon could not understand even basic at all.

But this is, after all, something that Adrien left on the map with a special mark, even if he can't read it for now, Jon won't directly throw it away.

After properly putting the book into his pocket, he began to look at the next target point on the map again.

Adrien marked out a total of only three points on the map, two of which were dotted out with red ink, and the other was black.

One black mark is the secret corridor where Jon found the map, and one red mark is the spot where the book has been found, lastly now only the last red mark remains.

What is hidden in this one can basically be determined, it is the location where Adrien crafted that gemstone at the North Pole.

Jon also felt that after all his efforts to come to such a place looking for the raw materials to make the gem, but as a result, when things were found and made, yet there was no way to take it with him, he would not have forgotten to leave a mark.

At the same time, this also reflects the importance of the book he got, it can be marked by Adrien specifically with the same dot as the gem, which means that this thing is equal to that gem in his heart.

Then, Jon did not stop, the last spot is a long way from where they are now, basically about twice the distance they have walked since they entered the labyrinth.

They now had to move with the cloak of invisibility, with just Gabrielle remaining, Jon didn't feel comfortable letting her scout ahead alone, so their progress was undoubtedly slowed down a lot.

But besides encountering Death Eaters and breaking out into battle not long after coming out of the secret corridor, the journey that followed was not considered dangerous, even if they encountered a squad of Death Eaters, they successfully avoided them.

Two and a half days later, they finally arrived at a place less than a mile from the point marked on the map.
