Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2638: Death in life
"It's unbelievable...look behind us! The outside of the school gate is now packed like a Quidditch World Cup audience, but when you get in, you can't even see half a living corpse. ? This... Who knocked over this can of sardines that was supposed to be full of fish? Why is the 'fish' on the outside of the 'can'?"
After a lot of hard work, everyone finally crossed the front bridge repaired with ghoul net vines, and broke through the blockade of the enemy group in one go, and rushed straight to the long-lost campus.
Now Ron's speed is really extraordinary. After Maca and Harry, who were the first to step into the front court with absolute strength, he was the third one to enter the door.
And after looking at the situation inside the door with concentration, he couldn't help but be the first to speak in amazement. Naturally, it was also him.
"What kind of fish are canned, stop talking nonsense!"
Harry grabbed Ron and dragged him behind the bushes where he and Maka were taking cover, while Maka was doing the same to the others who came in later.
The vestibule at Hogwarts is really empty, especially near the school gate. Except for the lawn or lawn, there are almost no available shelters. That is, crouching behind the bushes in front of the fence wall, from a distance, it is barely considered that it is not so dazzling.
After a while, Harry couldn't help but turn his head. The dense corpses outside the iron fence were still in front of him. To be honest, it's no wonder that Ron couldn't help sighing just now.
"Is there any force preventing them from entering the school grounds?" He stared at the terrifying scene outside the fence and couldn't help whispering to himself.
And not far away, Maca's attention is obviously long away from the campus.
From here, you can actually see the entire front of Hogwarts Castle very clearly. It can be seen that the campus today is showing a very strange atmosphere as a whole.
As mentioned earlier, when looking from a distance outside, you can see that the castle is almost "immersed" in a kind of black smoke. Up close now, it's still the same.
It's just that the tall castle's main gate, which can't be seen in the distance, is still open for some reason. It seems to be filled with black mist inside the gate, just like those open windows on the castle, thick black smoke flows out, and goes down the stairs in front of the gate all the way, until it reaches the brick road and grass in front of it. They were all covered with slightly undulating black air.
Strangely, however, after about twenty feet away from the castle itself, the black smoke that covered the nearby lawns like a carpet was like hitting an invisible wall, all confined within Within a certain range around the castle, it could not continue to spread out.
This also makes the entire vestibule still mostly "clean", and inside and outside the clear boundary, it seems to be completely two worlds.
But what surprised Maca the most was not actually this. What he is most curious about is the state of the various trees and vegetation in the vestibule today.
It must be said that, apart from the terrible appearance on the other side of the castle, the ecological environment in most areas of the entire campus is really amazingly good, even to the extent that it makes people feel a little weird—
The lawn in the vestibule is fresh and green, and the woods in the direction of the forbidden forest are still lush. The row of greenhouses seemed equally alive.
Even the beating willow, the worm cocoon that originally hung all over it has long since disappeared, and the paper has drawn out a lot of new shoots. With a burst of vitality and comfort.
Compared with the barren and disaster-stricken land that everyone has seen along the way, the contrast of the scene here is obvious, and it makes people feel more fresh and beautiful than Hogwarts in the past!
"I saw grass that wasn't withered yellow again! But I never thought that the place where the whole disaster area could see fresh and tender green would actually be here - I thought it was the most unlikely place to see it. The place where this scene is!" Neville, who was squatting not far from Maca, was obviously also surprised by the vitality here, and couldn't help saying this at this time.
On the other side of Maca, Willie, who has always liked plants the most, is already looking down at the bushes and blades of grass beside her. She seems to be very curious as to what makes the vegetation here grow so healthy in a severely polluted magical environment...
"I have a proposal."
Just when everyone was deeply shocked by the various scenes in the school, Maca's voice suddenly sounded, breaking the silence here.
And probably at this time, including Maca, everyone realized with a little hindsight that there was something very wrong on the campus:
It's so quiet here!
In this campus, there is such a vibrant scene, but not even the slightest sound of insects and birds.
Even if the core area that was supposed to be a dead place is now full of business, it's strange enough~IndoMTL.com~ But in the school's forecourt with lush vegetation and vitality, there are not even a single bird, beast, or insect. , which is obviously even more bizarre and abnormal.
I just came here all the way, except for the sound of hand-to-hand fighting with countless enemies, there is indeed no other movement on this disaster area. It was probably because he was already used to the dead silence that even Maca didn't notice it right away.
"There is vitality everywhere, but there is a sense of death everywhere..." Maca, who interrupted the previous topic a little, murmured at this time, and then turned to continue, "Anyway, I have a The proposal is to let me... um, Harry and I! Let's go to the castle to check the situation up close."
He probably just wanted to explore alone at first, but after considering what most people think, he still brought Harry along.
After saying this, Maca turned her head to look at Sarah next to her, and reached out to her:
"Give it to me! You wait here and prepare to contact the Hogsmeade village station as needed. If you can't get in touch here, let Miss Geoffine protect you and try it out until Hermione and Lu are successfully notified. until Na."
"Okay."
Sarah obediently handed over the broken doll that had been in her hand, and nodded lightly. Although Safina on the side did not speak, but judging from her posture, she obviously acquiesced to Maca's assignment to herself.
In the end, it was Harry who, after thinking for a while, also slightly raised the sword in his hand, and silently agreed to the action proposal for this first probe.
