Murphy glanced at the other party.

He remembered the question Laura Kruger had asked him.

She asked at the time if Murphy found a way to turn ordinary people into wizards, would he mind sharing such power.

Murphy's answer at the time was that he didn't know yet and would ask him again when there was a possibility.

Now, such a moment has arrived.

"No," Murphy said, "There's no need to stop."

"The authority of magic does not belong to me alone, nor do I have the right to deny others access to magic. We are all travelers on this road leading to the end of magic. I just took a few steps first."

If his goal is simply to gain dominance, then the more people who have magic, the less power he has.

But that's not his goal. What he wants is to reach the end of magic.

This is not a road of zero-sum game competition, but a road of cooperation where the more people who travel together, the further we can go.

Andrew breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Director."

Murphy nodded, "Let's talk about the current situation."

"You just said that wizards are the target of constructing potions, but wizards have magical powers and cannot be regarded as ordinary animals. They should also be regarded as magical animals. Has there been a breakthrough in Magic Magus technology?"

"Actually, there is no real breakthrough," Andrew scratched his head and said, "The difficulty of Magic Magus compared to Advanced Magus is that when adding the tissue of magical animals to the potion, because magical animals have magical powers, their tissues The magic power in the potion will destroy the balance of magic power in the potion, and even conflict with the wizard's own magic power, leading to more intense changes."

"Compared to the High Magus, the degree of this kind of mutation cannot be suppressed even by the Guardian God. This will lead to a sharp increase in the probability that the potion will develop a malignant mutation."

"But since this time only the Muggle's 'breath' is used to guide the wizard's magic, and there is no magic in the Muggle's breath, there will be no conflict. The magic is still the same, but the label and attribute distribution have been changed. It’s like molding plasticine into the shape you want through a mold.”

Murphy understood, "Okay, how long will it take you to complete this magic potion?"

"Because the process is similar to the production of Animagus potion, according to my estimation, it may take at least half a month."

"Half a month? Patrick doesn't have that long..." Murphy thought for a while, "By reducing his body's metabolic rate through petrification spells, freezing spells, low temperature, and anesthesia, can he slow down organ failure and inhibit virus replication?"

After listening to this, the medical experts summed it up and said, "Yes. But given Mr. Patrick's condition, it may be delayed for about two days at most."

Two days is still not enough.

After thinking about it, Murphy suddenly said: "What about real petrification?"

For example, the basilisk's petrification ability, there are methods in the magic world to truly petrify creatures.

At worst, after we have a way to treat Patrick, we can use mandrake juice or something like that to restore him.

"It should work."

Murphy immediately came to Siren Song of Knockturn Alley, found Lisandro, and told him what he wanted.

The latter went out for a while and came back soon, saying: "Sorry, the venom of the basilisk is gone. That kind of creature is very rare, but the venom is not very useful. We have not received this kind of venom for two or three years." Material."

"If I go to buy it now, can I find it?"

"It's difficult. This kind of material is difficult to store for a long time. Generally, wizards will either use it themselves after getting it, or they will change hands quickly. It is unlikely that they will be able to acquire it."

Murphy was a little worried. Should he go to Hogwarts to get the basilisk?

"However, I did hear news about basilisk a few months ago. If necessary, I can ask you about it."

"Oh? Go quickly!"

After a while, Lisandro came back, "I have a customer. One of his relatives is an explorer. It is said that he saw a basilisk last year."

"Where?"

"Grand Canyon, Arizona, USA."

"USA?"

"I'm going on a long trip." Murphy said to Laura Kruger, "I'll be back in two days at most. Take care of the institute, and if there is news about Ares, have the watchers dispatched. We must save the child."

After arranging the next work, Murphy took out an empty Coca-Cola bottle.

Apparition has a maximum distance limit, making it difficult to travel across continents. Although the international floo network between countries can also travel across states, it requires a lot of procedures and is quite cumbersome.

In contrast, portkeys have become the most common method for wizards to travel across continents.

Generally speaking, portkeys also need to be filed with the Ministry of Magic, but that is just a legal procedure. Murphy was pressed for time at the moment and could not care about this. He directly asked Lisandro to find a wizard who had been to the United States and made it for him. A portkey to San Francisco.

"Good luck to you, Director."

"gone."

Auror Command, Office of the Chief Auror.

"Director Robards," Kingsley knocked on the door and walked in when he saw the door was open, "I apply for an immediate arrest warrant for Murphy Darkholm!"

"W-Wanted?" Gadwin Robards was playing with a small golden statue. It was a gift from the Mephitos when he took office a few months ago, and it was specially carved to look like Gadwin himself. He liked the look of it very much and would take it out to play with from time to time.

"Murphy broke into St. Mungo's and took away the witness we were monitoring! Blatantly interfering with the Auror case! Director, this is the best opportunity! We won't catch him any more! We must take advantage of this opportunity Launch a full investigation into him!”

"St. Mungo's?" Gadwin was stunned for a moment, "I thought it was Azkaban. Is taking away a few patients a crime?"

"That's a group of Muggles bitten by werewolves!" Kingsley said, "I suspect some people are dissatisfied with Murphy, and they started dog-eat-dog. But this is our opportunity, Director, those Muggles are related There is evidence that Murphy sold potions to the Muggle community, so he wanted to take them away!"

"He is preparing to destroy the evidence!"

"This..." Gadwin looked a little embarrassed, "Now that Sirius is still outside and there are werewolves, there are so many things going on, why do you have to keep an eye on Murphy?"

"Because he is our real enemy. Sirius and Werewolf will only cause temporary trouble, but Murphy, if he is at large for one day, we will be in danger for one more day."

"Director, don't forget, he is also the enemy of Mr. Barty Crouch." Kingsley said, "If you don't plan to deal with him, I will directly apply for a wanted order from Mr. Crouch."

"You..." Gadwin was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red, but he finally said, "Okay, I'll report to Mr. Crouch."

Port of San Francisco, United States.

Murphy appeared next to a dock warehouse.

After looking around, Murphy took out a GPS locator, checked his location, and found that he had not strayed too far from his destination.

Then he took out another map, which was a simple map drawn by the explorer who had seen the basilisk.

According to the other party, he found the basilisk in a desert at the bottom of the northern edge of the Colorado Canyon. Judging from the location of the sign, it seemed to be north of a place called "Cape Royal," a stone's throw away. Thousands of kilometers.

A thousand kilometers, for Murphy now, is only a matter of minutes.

He first put on a titanium alloy helmet on himself.

This thing is specially built for high-speed flight. With its maximum speed of Mach 3 or above, if it hits a bird or something, even with its current physical fitness, there is no guarantee that it will not be injured.

But with this helmet, he is no longer afraid, and the helmet will still cover his head and the front of his beak when he transforms into a crow form, forming a cone-shaped structure to reduce wind resistance and further accelerate his flight speed.

After putting on his helmet, he cast a Muggle Repelling Charm on himself, followed by a Disillusionment Charm, and then turned into a black smoke rising into the sky.

In the middle of the journey, he suddenly turned into a black crow, his speed suddenly doubled, and with a "bang", a white wave of air exploded behind him, breaking through the sound barrier, and flew away like lightning.
