Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2326: Advance and retreat
"Oh! Click a la la la—"
A row of horse-drawn carriages dragged by Ye Qi just slammed on the open space in front of the camp, and then fell to the ground lightly, and the riveted wheels wrapped in iron sheets rolled a certain distance along with their traction, and quickly slowed down. Slowly stopped.
Before and after the dozens of carriages, two teams of eagle and horse riders and more flying guards riding on broomsticks also landed.
Even though the whole team looks a little mighty, but from the air to the ground, the formation is neat and tidy.
Oh, of course! A queue like this is definitely not what the Blois family is trying to show off-now they move and fight under the cloud that cannot use the Phantom Shifting spell almost all day long, and even the only heir of the family is on the front line, having such a posture. It's commonplace.
Not to mention that it's almost all my family members here right now, even if Mrs. Maxim and her first secretary, who were uninvited today, see this scene, they are not at all surprised.
With the background of the Blois family, the guarding of the wizard can only be regarded as a small scene. Many upstart-like middle-level forces in the magical world are usually much more exaggerated than this!
"Click."
After the entire team landed and stopped, the door of the second carriage in the queue was gently opened, and the steps automatically stretched and opened from under the door. Immediately afterwards, Patriarch Blois, Willie, and the old butler walked down one by one under the respectful guidance of a wizard.
"Mrs. Maxim?"
As soon as I got out of the car, the Patriarch of Blois, who came back with the team, saw the only two outsiders here-the size of Maxime. It was really hard not to see them.
I saw Blois pause for a while, then nodded slightly at the other party with a questioning expression.
Although she is an "outsider", as Maxime, no one in Blois's family is unfamiliar with her. As early as many years ago when Maxim became the headmaster of Busbarton, Willie's father had already met with her once, and it was in the former home of Blois.
It's just that, if you want to be familiar... Actually the two are not familiar with each other. After all, the Blois family, especially the host family, has been very low-key over the past few years, and there are still few opportunities for the two to actually meet.
"Mr. Patriarch of Blois, it's a coincidence. I'm asking your camp guard to let me in and sit and wait for a while! Unexpectedly, the husband would have returned before the report was over."
"Well," Blois couldn't help but pause again when he heard the words, then walked up to him, swayed back and motioned, "If you have anything to do with Mrs. Maxim, just talk to the housekeeper directly. Now, you guys are more familiar with it. Well, it’s rude... Let’s take two people inside and let’s talk slowly!"
The last sentence was obviously addressed to the old housekeeper, and when he finished speaking, he nodded at Maxim, and walked directly inside.
Frankly speaking, Mr. Blois's performance is not rude, at least it is indeed a little demeaned. But the content of what he said is actually reasonable.
At least he knew very well that Maxim and the old butler had formed the Resistance Alliance together with Hermione, and he also suddenly guessed Maxim's purpose this time. As he himself doesn't want to involve too many external affairs at present, it is naturally the most appropriate choice to leave it to the old housekeeper to clean up the mud.
At least that must be more merciful than he would personally decline the invitation that the other party will send out later.
"Sorry, ma'am! Patriarch has been personally involved in danger in the UK during this period of time a few days ago. He just came back recently, but he immediately rushed to the front line to deal with a big trouble. It was when he needed a break...Please! Anyway, if you have anything, go to the camp and sit down first!"
Ms. Maxim's sudden visit with bone and eye injuries at this juncture is specifically for the experienced people such as Mr. Blois and the old housekeeper, naturally, they can more or less guess. As far as the current internal and external situation on the European continent is concerned, the superficial order that is barely maintained can be said to be undercurrents. As the new president of the Federation, Maxim, who is still somewhat lonely, naturally hopes to win over all parties as soon as possible. Talents and forces that can be wooed, so that they can do more when the disaster is approaching.
It's a pity that Blois and the old butler actually see them more thoroughly than she does.
Especially Mr. Blois, who has experienced so many difficult battles in the UK, he has a very deep understanding of the nature of this disaster. If the enemies of human beings are only the living corpses, if most wizards and Muggle forces are assembled, they may be able to compete with each other and find the possibility of victory from them.
However, the vast majority of people are still unclear, and now the real enemy of mankind is a group of real demons!
At this time, what the human side needs is not a large number of willingly sacrificed "send the dead", but an elite force capable of confronting those demons and Helbo head-on-this means that it is still in the UK. The struggling Harry, Hermione and others.
As for the rear...maybe all the forces have to do is to maintain stability as much as possible, at least not to drag Harry and the others who are fighting bravely on the front line of the first battlefield.
Have you not seen that Blois has returned? He came back this time not only for Willie, but also for the second battlefield between Germany and the southern part of the Netherlands.
Of course~IndoMTL.com~ At this moment, Mrs. Maxim certainly does not fully understand this truth. She is even thinking about threading needles between the major forces and uniting everyone to counterattack the enemy!
But when she realized from the situation just now that Patriarch Blois obviously didn’t want to say anything to herself, she hesitated for a while, her eyes passed by the old housekeeper, and she subconsciously turned her head to look not far away. Willie.
Meeting Mr. Blois today was just a coincidence without a surprise, and Maxim's original goal was originally Willie, who is currently representing the rights and obligations of the Patriarch.
"Miss Blois...Oh, it is said that you have been with Mr. McLean for a while in the UK. I don’t know what's going on with him? You should know that Mr. McLean and I are also old friends. Now, he has not heard from the outside world recently, after all, it is a little worrying!"
On the way here beforehand, Maxim has always emphasized the need to use the identity of a friend as the keynote of this meeting. Although she just met a Blois Patriarch by accident, it seems that she still intends to do so at this moment. Done.
Unfortunately, Willie has never eaten this set much.
