Chapter 302

Murphy wrote a letter to Sophia.

The content is as follows:

"Respected Your Majesty:"

【Look how polite I am】

"It's been a long time since I asked about you. Are you satisfied with the black tea I sent you last time?"

【Take people's hands short, you must remember it】

"Thank you again for your strong support for our cause. You can rest assured that those Arkaim wizards will receive generous salaries. I will definitely not let the compatriots of friendly countries feel cold."

【Rest assured】

"In addition, regarding the conditions you mentioned before, although I have already agreed to you, I still don't know your specific needs. If you have any intentions, please let me know by letter, and I will definitely not fail your trust."

【What exactly do you want, tell me quickly】

"Now that it is autumn, I don't know if Your Majesty has been to the UK. The autumn in the UK has a different interest. I sincerely invite you to visit, and I will definitely not let you down."

【If you come, you will definitely bring Lady Yaga, right?】

"Also, I heard that shamans are good at soul arts. I have recently encountered a problem in this regard and want to go to your country for advice. I hope you will allow it."

【If you don't come, I'll go there?】

"Also, attached to the letter is a magic ritual, which can be added to the heart communication network, so that you can listen to your voice at any time."

【Writing letters is too slow, let's contact by phone in the future】

After writing the letter, Murphy handed it to a Watcher, who would arrive in the Soviet Union to deliver the letter through the "International Floo Fireplace" just established with Arkaim.

This is also a sign of strengthening cooperation between the wizarding worlds of the two countries.

In the future, Murphy is preparing to build more Floo fireplaces between the two countries and completely open up the two wizarding worlds.

There are so many wizards in Arkaim, wouldn't it be a waste not to pull them over to work for himself?

On the afternoon the letter was sent, Murphy's "Raven's Court" heart network discovered a new member.

Murphy was overjoyed and immediately sent a message, "Hello, Your Majesty."

But the latter sent back an old voice, "I am Lady Yaga."

Uh... Murphy suddenly felt like he was preparing to tease someone's daughter, but was discovered by the other party's parents.

"Hello, Madam." Murphy had to say hello.

"This magic is very interesting. Your attainments in heart magic are surprising," Lady Yaga praised, and then said, "But the Queen is not convenient to accept such magic, so if you have any urgent matters in the future, you can convey them through me."

The heart communication protocol attached to Murphy's letter was for calling the Queen.

Such things would inevitably be subject to heavy inspections, so Murphy didn't dare to leave any obvious backdoors in it. He couldn't control the other party through this Soul Seed, nor could he steal the other party's vision, hearing, etc., at most he could get some positioning.

But didn't expect that even so, the one who joined was still Lady Yaga.

Well, this heart magic protocol thing is indeed too special, and it is reasonable for the other party to be so cautious.

"Of course, of course, I was too abrupt." Murphy felt a little disappointed in his heart, but it was also reasonable.

Lady Yaga was also relieved. Fortunately, she arrived in time, otherwise Sophia would have signed that magic protocol.

No one knows what kind of effect this heart magic that has never been seen before has. If the Queen is controlled by Murphy because of this, it will be over.

Even if, as Murphy said, this magic is just for heart-to-heart talk, that won't work either.

Having someone chat in your head every day is too intimate. As long as Murphy puts a little effort, a little girl like the Queen will probably fall soon, and even without magic control, speech control is very difficult to handle.

Although she hopes that the Queen can have a good relationship with Murphy, and even hopes that the two can combine, that is on the premise that the Queen still occupies a relatively advantageous position and still puts the interests of Arkaim first.

If the Queen becomes a pair with Murphy, but is controlled by Murphy, making Arkaim a tool for Murphy to use at will, it will be a loss.

"Mr. Darkholm, you said in the letter that you have a problem with the soul?" Lady Yaga asked.

"Yes." Murphy thought for a while and decided to tell the truth. "I encountered an enemy who seems to have planted a heart coordinate in my head. But I can't find the existence of this coordinate no matter what. So I want to ask you if you have any way. If possible, I hope you can help me remove it."

"Heart coordinate?" Lady Yaga seemed very surprised. "Your attainments in heart magic are already very high, and you can't find it?"

"Yes, so I need your help."

Lady Yaga thought for a while and said: "If you have time, you can come to Arkaim, and I will check it for you personally."

The existence of the heart coordinate made Murphy feel like a fishbone in his throat. In case the enemy has means like his Avada Star-Killing Cannon, maybe he can take himself away at any time through this heart coordinate. He didn't hesitate, went directly to Arkaim through the Floo fireplace, and then met the Queen and Lady Yaga in the Palace of Spring.

Sophia received Murphy in the reception room. She looked a little worried. "Mr. Murphy, what is the specific process? Can you describe it? Lady Yaga said you encountered an enemy?"

Murphy briefly explained the matter with Ragnuk, and finally said: "He mentioned a name, Maria, but I know nothing about this name. Lady Yaga, do you know such a wizard?"

Lady Yaga has lived for more than a hundred years and has seen more than him. Things he doesn't know, maybe the old lady knows.

"This is a common name, but as far as I know, there should be no one who can do the means of heart attack through others as a medium as you said."

"Heart magic has very distinct characteristics. It is actually a contest of will between the caster and the recipient," Lady Yaga said. "Heart magic only succeeds when the caster's will is significantly stronger than the recipient's."

This is also consistent with Murphy's understanding of heart magic.

When he uses Soul Seeds on others, if the Soul Seed is against the other party's will, he often needs a series of preceding steps, or mental torture, or deception, etc., otherwise he will encounter resistance.

On the contrary, agreement-type Soul Seeds are like contracts, with clear terms, easier to be accepted by the other party, and simpler to plant.

In addition, there is the Soul Seed virus, but this method is difficult to directly manipulate the other party's will, and can only do limited operations through the virus. If it is slightly more complicated, it may lead to the death of the virus host—the Soviet Muggle officials who died in the confrontation with Ragnuk are evidence.

"Are you saying that Maria's will strength is far beyond mine?" Murphy asked.

"I'm afraid so." Lady Yaga said, "Will is not the same as thinking, spirit, etc. It is more like a strength of the soul. In the use of magic, it is expressed as a kind of power, the power to make magic take effect before other wills... just like kings and soldiers, nobles and commoners, it is a difference in hierarchy..."

Murphy was stunned for a moment, and then understood, "Similar to the user permissions of the magic network?"

Wizards with strong will are users with higher permissions in the magic network system, and their orders can be executed before those with lower permissions.

Murphy once felt more affinity for magic after his second awakening in the village of Joaquim.

He felt at that time that it was an improvement in magic network permissions.

But after two Animagus transformations, Murphy felt that his affinity for magic was completely no less than that of Dumbledore, Tom, and others, and he didn't feel that he would be suppressed when facing them.

If this means that his magic network permissions have reached the level of top wizards like Dumbledore.

Then does it mean that wizards with much higher permissions than himself are also much stronger than Dumbledore, the ceiling of the wizarding world?

In the world today, are there still such monsters?

Why have I never heard of it?
