Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2633: Confrontation
The village of Hogsmeade, currently regarded as a temporary counterattack stronghold, welcomed a new guest today. As the saying goes, one more person can bring more strength, which obviously should not show any attitude of refusal for the entire counter-offensive army, which is in urgent need of manpower to deal with the long front.
Especially if the "guest" has also expressed a willingness to contribute to the battle.
However, the situation on the scene at this time is a little subtle - the tense feeling of the sword drawn in the silent confrontation scene, even the distance from here just now. Sirius who looked in the past could smell it.
It is worth mentioning that compared to the wizard who was alone on the opposite side, there was already a large group of people gathered in the stronghold. At the head, it seems that the leader of the second vanguard, the muscular man Yegor Matuseyevich, who had just returned from the frontline battlefield for a rest ten minutes ago.
As a pure-bred human wizard, this guy is really not small, so he is always very conspicuous in the crowd. Sirius can tell at a glance that the big guy standing at the front must be him.
Then, who is the man who is currently being blocked at the intersection of the street by a group of wizards headed by Yegor who are obviously affiliated to the three major families...
"Mr. Stewart?"
A head with long pale blond hair suddenly appeared from the window of the temporary command post, beside Sirius, and after looking at it from a distance, he immediately blurted out like this.
Obviously, that's Luna.
As for "Mr. Stewart" in her mouth, it is naturally the one who just parted ways with her and Hermione and others in the outer London suburbs, John Stewart.
I didn't expect to see each other so soon!
"It turned out to be him," Lupin frowned slightly after looking over Sirius's shoulder at this time, "Didn't he say he plans to go back to the United States first? Although he also said that he will definitely come back. , but it's a bit too fast... But if it's him, the situation over there can make sense."
"Anyway, let's go over and have a look first," Sirius said, turning around.
……
Objectively speaking, the reason why three of the four major families today chose to end up together at the previous point in time to jointly participate in this mighty and catastrophic war is that the American "mason workshop"... That is, the initiative of the Stewart family is inseparable.
It's not that if the Stewart family's secret team didn't show up in the old British disaster area, the three major families would not intervene in the disaster, but if that was the case, the three major families would definitely not choose to show up at this time. Admission.
After all, even the four major European families, which represent the highest level of European magic, have obviously declined greatly compared to their former prosperity. Leaving aside the Blois family that had been involved from the very beginning, for the remaining three families, even now, it still seems a little rushed.
This can be seen to some extent from the fact that their three-way coalition did not perform well in the first battle of the second battlefield, and then had to rely on Harry, Hermione and others to help.
So now, the wizards of the three major families who have not dealt with the United States have naturally hated the Stewart family more and more after experiencing the bad battlefield.
"Stuart."
In the middle of the street, Yegor, who had been staring straight at the opposite side, finally spoke again after a stalemate.
"We don't need you Yankees to pretend to be kind, go back to your America! If you're standing there again, don't blame us for the crowd and carry you out."
This guy looks rough on the outside, and his tone of voice at this time is also very rude. But I have to say, from his expression and posture, he is not at all arrogant, but shows caution and calmness everywhere.
Because John on the opposite side had already explained a little of his friendship with Hermione and others before, and now Hermione is the commander-in-chief of their army. Even if he doesn't like the other side, he knows he can't do it. It's better not to do it, at least...you can't let your side do it first.
So, even the last sentence "carry it out" is nothing more than a harsh word.
It's a pity that since John has been in trouble this time and has come here all the way, it is definitely impossible to leave without doing anything.
"Mr. Matusievich... well! Since Your Excellency doesn't want me to help out in the war, I won't help. It's just... I do have to meet Miss Granger, even if Your Excellency If you don't want to let it go, please send her a message for me anyway?"
"Then go outside and wait! Miss Granger is not free now... Remember to stay away from the fortifications around Hogsmeade." Yegor said with his calm expression still. With no mercy at all, John's face could not help but stiffen.
You must know that although the current front has advanced into the deep forest some distance from Hogsmeade Village, and the main combat forces are also on this front. However, because the overall battle line has been stretched very long ~IndoMTL.com~ it is really impossible to block all the enemies at one end, and there are still many fish that slip through the net.
Leaving John alone outside the Hogsmeade fortifications now would be infinitely more dangerous than if he had come all the way from the south alone.
After all, this is a battlefield after all!
"Let him in!"
Just when the big man Yegor was about to whisper what the other party could say, Lupin's voice came from behind the crowd behind him, causing him to curl his lips slightly.
He was just used to pretending to be ruthless. In fact, he had already vaguely realized that he had to let that guy in in the end.
What's more, in fact, even if this John and Hermione and others have no friendship. People still have to stay, especially the Stewart family, it is impossible to let them go easily, but the way to keep people is definitely not the same.
But now...
"Mr. Lupin?" Yegor turned around and waved his hand, letting the gathered people push away from both sides, and then looked at Lupin who was walking towards him and said, "Since Mr. Lupin said so..."
As he spoke, he turned to the side again, stretched out his hand to invite him, and made a "please" gesture, presumably trying to sell his favor.
At the beginning of the formation of the army, among the original three coalition forces that were split and incorporated, only the Matusievich family was always reluctant. By now, they may also understand that since they finally joined in, they still have to get along better, which is good for each other.
However, it still makes people feel that many actions are vaguely deliberate.
"Thank you."
Lupin nodded at him with a nonchalant smile as he passed by.
