439 Communication and reporting
"We can only let Hagrid watch his younger brother hiding in the woods for the moment, and even tie Hagrid's younger brother up for the time being." At this time, Mr. Weasley, who went to get the drink, walked over with two glasses of butterbeer and said.
"We cannot use any magic, because the Ministry of Magic will record it when using magic. If it is once or twice, it will not be a big problem, but the intensive use of magic in one place can easily attract the attention of the Ministry of Magic."
"If this is the problem, I think I can help." After looking at no one around paying attention, Hugo took a sip of butterbeer and said.
"At least we can create a space that covers the scope of a football field at our current level, and no magic is used in this space will be sensed by the outside world."
"What, is this true?" After hearing Hugo say this, Sirius suddenly widened his eyes and became excited. "Can magic be really not discovered there?"
"Don't worry, this is a secret magic I learned from your old house." Hugo smiled and said. "As long as you don't hit the magic out of the range, it's not a big problem."
"By the way, how to make that space? Does one of you need to be on site?" Mr. Weasley asked at this time that as the current head of the Weasley family, who has talent in manufacturing, he knew how troublesome this kind of thing was.
"That's not necessary. For the magic circle with the largest area, I only need to make 36 rune stones in advance, and then you can put these rune stones on fixed points as required. It's not very difficult."
Hugo said with a smile. Unlike ordinary wizards, both Hugo and those ship girls admire the tradition of industrial society, so when designing this new magic circle, they naturally adopted the most popular modular design.
Because it is a modular design, this magic array can naturally be disassembled into many small pieces and assembled where needed, forming a magic barrier.
Compared with the traditional magic props in the wizarding world today, although Hugo and his new invention cannot solve the inherent fragility of each moving component for the time being, it is undoubtedly a higher cost to achieve the level similar to magic props.
However, whether it is convenient to layout, simple to disassemble, flexible to use, or overall cost-effectiveness and cost, it is better than the original old-fashioned magic props.
"Do you only have hidden magic arrays? Are they all of them large?" After Hugo introduced this set of magic props, Mr. Weasley, an old warrior of the Order of the Phoenix, immediately asked, because he realized the value of such magic props in war.
"Of course not. For example, the set of magic props I introduced to you before can be disassembled and used. Each rune stone can support a 10×10×10 space." Hugo shook his head and said.
"But compared to being disassembled and used, these things can form a larger magic prop after being aggregated, covering a space much larger than the space created by individual parts."
"And in the variety of this magic array, in addition to this magic array used to hide magic waves, we also have an invisible magic array and a defensive magic array."
"Thank you, we will buy these things like mutual aid," Mr. Weasley said, raising his glass at this time. "The hot butter beer today is good, just so I can drink a little more."
Obviously, Hugo and his team's previous secret plan was surprisingly effective. Although it was not clear whether Dumbledore could see any clues, at least most members of the Order of the Phoenix did not see where the real command core of the ship girls was.
This is why Mr. Weasley turned the topic to other things, because in Mr. Weasley's opinion, Hugo and others are at most apprentices of the Mutual Aid Association, so the topic is not suitable for too deep discussion.
After drinking a glass of butterbeer, Hugo and the other three left the three broom bars together. After all, Sirius and the others seemed to have something to do, and it was not very suitable for them to stay there.
"Where are Harry and the others going?" Just as he headed to the restaurant where Xue Feng and the others were, Hermione unexpectedly saw Harry, Ron and Ginny walking on the path ahead of them.
"It should be heading to Pig Head Bar, after all, there are only two shops on this road." Hugo glanced at the place Hermione was looking at before and said.
"I really hope Harry and the others can remember to bring their cups. Luna told me that their dean Flivie said it was actually quite safe there, and the only problem was that the hygiene was a bit worrying."
"It seems that Harry has decided to set up his study group, but to be honest, the information leaked from the Pig Head Bar is like a sieve. I can guarantee that Harry and the others will know what they are doing before they go back to the castle Umbridge." Veneto said.
"Believe in Harry and the others, at least I don't think something happens to Harry and the others so easily." Hugo smiled, then followed Veneto and the others into the restaurant.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, they came to the private room that was never open to the public as usual, and then listened to Xuefeng reporting on the recent situation while eating.
"—There are now six transport ships that can perform hyperspace jumps, and four will be put into use in the next two weeks." Xuefeng opened a holographic projection and began to report on the actions of the ship girl in recent times.
"Now that the Mars base has started to be built as we plan, the Mars One high-latitude base has found sufficient water sources and has begun to cultivate various algae and magical plants."
"According to the plan, by Christmas, the Mars base is similar to essentials such as oxygen, water and food to meet the self-sufficiency of Mars and bases in Mars orbit."
"This is very good news." Hugo nodded, "By the way, I remember the largest space dock we planned will be built in Mars orbit. How is the project now?"
"The core part is being assembled, and for this we have mobilized most of the productivity we have at hand." Xue Feng turned the information back two pages and said. "But even the first phase of the project will not be completed until May next year."
"This is mainly because our core mission is to build a Mars base and a series of industrial facilities on Mars, so in a short period of time, the construction of ships can only rely on the shipyard in the lunar orbit."
"I understand that this is the reason why sharpening a knife does not delay chopping wood." Hugo smiled. He knew that the current construction project was planned scientifically by the ship girls, so he would not point fingers at it.
As reported just now, there were seven first batch of Mars bases. In addition to three bases on the surface of Mars, it also includes an unattended armed outpost on Phobos and three space stations.
According to the plan, the first batch of construction will mainly solve the permanent survival problem of personnel on Mars and establish most of the supporting industrial facilities required for future Mars docks.
