Chapter 153: Rebellion Farce
Soon, Murphy read some bad news from the other party's mind.
The Magic Research Institute had fallen.
To be precise, it was controlled by several undercover wizards.
Kingsley and Crouch had long suspected that Murphy had a secret lair, so when Murphy recruited wizards through the Wizard Security Shop, they sent intern Aurors to lurk in.
They had good strength, but hadn't registered as real Aurors yet, and most of them were just graduated, meeting Murphy's recruitment requirements.
At the same time, Kingsley also learned from the lessons of previous undercover failures. Not only did he not let these undercover agents perform any tasks or send back intelligence, but he even cast Obliviation Charms on these undercover agents, sealing the memory of their undercover identities.
These undercover agents who didn't know they were undercover agents were very difficult to find flaws even if they were subjected to Legilimency.
So they were absorbed into the Magic Research Institute just like ordinary excellent shop assistants.
They had been loyally working for Murphy until today.
In order to wake up these extremely deep-lurking undercover agents, Kingsley extracted those sealed memories and put them into a small memory orb, which they carried with them.
That memory orb was set with an activation spell, connected to a paired control device, which could remotely control the state of the memory orb and make it release memories at any time to wake them up.
Such exquisite undercover means were something even Murphy couldn't have predicted.
And after they were woken up, they immediately received the Aurors' counterattack order through the radio. The Aurors asked them to occupy Murphy's lair and open the door to welcome the arrival of the Aurors.
But... when they wanted to do this, they suddenly found that they had encountered a problem.
They seemed to, perhaps, actually, couldn't betray Murphy...
Any behavior of leaking the Magic Research Institute to others without authorization was instinctively resisted by them.
Even, they couldn't even pass a message to inform the Aurors of the location of the Magic Research Institute.
They soon realized that it was the effect of the agreement signed with Murphy.
Murphy used some kind of spell, the effect of which was so strong and so irresistible that it didn't even look like the implementation method of the Unbreakable Vow, which threatened with death—for the Unbreakable Vow, as long as one is not afraid of sacrifice, it can be violated.
The terrifying thing about Murphy's spell is that it makes the recipient completely follow this agreement from the bottom of their heart.
Any act of leaking secrets would be stopped by themselves.
No matter if you were an undercover agent or an enemy in the past, as long as you signed the agreement, you became a comrade.
Damn it...
The undercover agents were almost collapsing, but out of loyalty and justice, they still followed the first half of the Aurors' orders and occupied the Magic Research Institute.
After all, most of the people in the Magic Research Institute were Muggles with no combat effectiveness, and house-elves who couldn't hurt wizards at all. There were not many wizards, and they succeeded quickly by surprise.
Then they met Murphy.
"What an exquisite means." For Kingsley's operation, Murphy praised from the bottom of his heart, "However... it's useless."
After all, the intensity was too low.
The intensity of the memories sealed by the Obliviation Charm was completely insufficient to break through the blockade of the Soul Seed.
And the combat strength of this group of undercover wizards was not enough in front of him.
So skills or schemes only work within the range of relative power gap. In front of absolute power difference, they only add to the laughter.
Murphy also found the other two undercover agents who were guarding the remaining wizards in another conference room and subdued them without any effort.
The crisis of the Magic Research Institute was thus resolved.
It's not that the undercover wizards didn't want to do more to ensure victory, but the agreement required them to cherish the institute's property, unite and cooperate with other Muggle researchers, respect each other, etc. They could concentrate the people and trap them in one place, which was already drilling the loopholes of the agreement and doing their best.
The losses caused by this rebellion farce were not even as much as Murphy's flash just now...
Murphy found the researchers responsible for the treatment of Patrick and others and found that they were still working in an orderly manner at their original posts, and didn't even notice that a rebellion had occurred in the institute.
Miserable, really too miserable...
Murphy was almost going to shed tears for the undercover agents.
"Boss, did you find the Basilisk venom?" Andrew Tooke asked as soon as he saw Murphy.
"No, but it's not needed anymore."
The Basilisk's head was poked into a mess by the Thunderbird, and the venom glands were burned to ashes by the thunder fire. The spilled venom was hard to collect, and most of it was rolled away by the subsequent tornado.
He really didn't get the Basilisk venom.
But after possessing the Basilisk Animagus form, if Murphy was willing, he could also secrete some venom, or strengthen his Petrification Curse through this venom, making it turn into true "petrification".
But that was not what Murphy meant by "not needed".
"Using Dittany Promoting Factor can accelerate the preparation of Animagus potion. Get a piece of paper, and I will write down the specific ratio and preparation steps for you."
After killing the Thunderbird, in order to survive, he had to crack the mechanism of the mutation that happened to him. In those five microseconds of light-speed thinking time, Murphy understood the process through hundreds of thousands of comparisons and calculations.
Its core mechanism is the accelerating effect of Dittany Promoting Factor on Animagus potion.
On this point, he had already established a perfect theoretical model.
Taking the paper handed over by the intern therapist Valya, and borrowing the other party's wand, he used Comprehensive Recall on himself and materialized that part of the knowledge onto the paper with a "Copy Spell".
He had been able to do this move as soon as he completed the Raven Magus. The scripts given to Pict were done this way.
After handing the steps of the acceleration potion to Andrew and letting him prepare the antidote to save people, Murphy summoned the remaining medical experts to give himself a comprehensive physical examination, drew several tubes of blood, and did various fluoroscopies and punctures.
However, because his body was already very different from ordinary humans, the experts couldn't draw any conclusions and could only conduct research first.
He had just come down from the NMR machine when Laura found him, "Director, we just received a call. The other party said they could provide the location of the werewolves."
In fact, because the reward Murphy set was very high, they had received quite a few similar calls, but this call was a bit different, "He said he was also a werewolf and said he saw the werewolves abduct a child. I think this news should be true."
"Oh? What is his name?"
"He calls himself Moony. We don't know what it means."
Moony?
Remus Lupin?
Murphy didn't hesitate too much, "Immediately have the Watchers mobilize to save people!"
"Director, the Watchers can't be contacted... We suspect the Aurors might have controlled the security shop..."
Murphy frowned, damn it, just causing trouble!
"Forget it, I'll go myself. Where did he say the werewolves were?"
"London Docklands, Surrey Docks, but he lost them and doesn't know the specific location."
