Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2623: Just ahead
( ) To kill a high-level living corpse that can control gravity, it is obviously not a difficult task in front of the current lineup. Even if you have to do it among countless enemies, it doesn't seem to be very difficult.
After running all the way along the route opened up by the vanguard of Ron and others, Maca, who was a little behind, hadn't even made a few shots when Harry's hand came from ahead. Baojian went ahead alone, bravely entered the mountains around Hogsmeade, where the living corpses are densest, and successfully solved the latest news of the target.
Then Harry, who turned his head back, broke through and joined the team under the support of Ron, Ginny, and Sarah's alchemy doll, and the flying troops who were resting in the rear camp began to enter the battlefield from the air.
The battle was fierce. After all, the number of living corpses hidden in the deep mountains was astonishing. But so far, it's completely within the range of Hermione's estimate when making the plan, and there aren't many unexpected things happening.
It's just that this first battle is part of military training after all, so Maca didn't participate in the battle on the frontal battlefield much along the way. Some fish that slipped through the net were cleaned up, and the rune cards that Hermione had prepared were placed on both sides of the opened route one after another, ensuring the smooth passage of this march to a certain extent.
Therefore, regardless of Harry's feat of entering and exiting the enemy group very quickly from the very beginning, coupled with the addition of a team of high-level living corpses headed by Rebes as allies, the combat efficiency is also amazing. , in fact, the speed of this forward battle is not too fast.
When Maca and Hermione in the rear finally set foot on the snowy ridge facing Hogsmeade, it was already dark.
…
Here is already above the snow line, and when climbing to the top of this ridge, even the hardy trees seem to be much thinner. Without too many plants to cover them, the oncoming cold wind blew like knives, causing most wizards in the army to shrink their necks.
Hermione is also standing here, beside Maca. Seeing her looking at the shadow of the village that was already in the distance, she couldn't help muttering:
"I remember that when we retreated, several Hogsmeade families didn't go with them, but stayed stubbornly. The old Zach couple of 'Dewes and Bans', the post office owl breeder Daldo from the clerk, and Mr. Evans, the salesman at the quill shop... There are actually a few more, but I haven't had the chance to meet them in the past... Some of them have lived here for generations, but there are others who just came Those who open a shop or work here have already regarded this place as their home..."
So saying, she suddenly asked in a daze:
"Maka, you said...is it possible for a person who has become a living corpse to recover the memory of his life?"
"It's very difficult, very difficult. During the period when the soul of the dead was locked in the body and transitioned to the living corpse, a huge change has taken place. It may be more difficult than Sarah's to restore that transformation. Birth is much more complicated and difficult.”
While speaking, Maca was also looking at Hogsmeade village opposite.
It's just that in that village, the orange lights that used to be there have long since disappeared, and even most of the buildings have been destroyed by the living corpses gathered there, and they are only silently immersed in the shadows, as if filled with a deep death. gas.
Maka's answer didn't seem to reach Hermione's ears, or, in fact, she didn't expect to get a surprising answer.
As she grew up and gradually experienced what it was like to struggle with all kinds of pressure, she also obviously began to understand the difficulty; also began to understand that even Maca is not a panacea.
If Maca can restore the memory of the living corpse, where is the need for her to remind again? This possibility that can almost resolve most of this crisis has been discussed many times—even Maca left the island alone to set foot on this disaster area, which was probably one of the reasons, even though he did not Didn't make it too clear.
"Miss Granger, the enemies on the hillside below have been cleared."
Just as Hermione and Maca were standing side by side, looking at Hogsmeade not far away, a wizard from the Rosie family hurried over and reported to her. The status of task completion.
Hearing this, Hermione turned around and nodded slightly.
"Thank you for your hard work. Everyone rest on the spot for half an hour, and the defense and security of the periphery will be handed over to our special team."
On the way up the ridge, there is a gentle **** with a leeward side, which is far less cold than the ridge, and it is just suitable for a temporary camp.
In fact, the location of Hogsmeade Village on the opposite side is also a similar place, but it is obviously much larger than the gentle **** on this mountain range.
"Got it."
The wizard nodded in response, and while tightening his collar tightly, turned around with a serious face and went down.
At the same time, Hermione took out her broom and flew into the air, and went to the mid-air in person, to convey the order to the captain of the flight troop to land on that hillside in batches for a rest in rotation.
The battle situation in the air is not like that on the ground. Although there are not many living corpses with the ability to fly, they are basically individuals who have advanced. It is not easy to fight. Fortunately, Hermione used the law of gravity magic to help them reduce the pressure from time to time, but their mission was far more than just responding to the enemy in the air, and they often had to dive down again and again to provide support for the ground troops.
Fortunately, the number of this batch of flying troops is quite large, and they are a little tired. At least the situation of combat attrition so far is still under control...
Yes~IndoMTL.com~ Combat attrition... In all wars, this is an unavoidable thing. Even in order to prevent the dead warriors from turning into living corpses under this cloud and attacking those comrades who were still fighting side by side in turn, they must be buried as soon as possible on the spot.
Just like the wizard who came to report just now, the mood of the entire army is not very good. Even before setting foot on this disaster-stricken land, everyone already knew about it through the materials, but after the actual experience, it is still uncontrollably depressing.
Hermione must have noticed this change a long time ago. After coming down from mid-air, Maca saw her go to the hillside and start talking to everyone. You don't need to listen to know that it must be her trying to comfort and encourage everyone.
After all, the battle has only just begun! Everyone is also adapting to the environment here and the various situations during combat. I think she and all her little friends actually came here like this back then, didn't they?
"Hogwarts is just around the corner."
Maka was still standing on the ridge, looking at the darkness beyond Hogsmeade, and murmured softly.
