Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 1894: Changes in the ancient city

In the south of England, there is a river that cuts into the land from the Solent Strait and winds from south to north until it passes through Winchester before turning to the east and gradually weakening.

　　This river is called Yiqin River.

　　 To be honest, this river is actually not too long, and it is not too famous. It is not even ranked in the UK, where there are many rivers.

　　 But this time, its existence happened to bring great convenience to Hermione and her party's itinerary.

　　 "Let's go into the water."

　　 After re-entering the mist along the river, as more and more corpses were encountered, Hermione decided to start driving down the water.

　　 The flowing river water will naturally hinder the movement of the living corpses, so there are not too many enemies underwater. As long as the breathing problem is ensured, safety will be greatly improved immediately.

　　 And speaking of breathing underwater... For the current Hermione and the others, it is obviously just a small matter.

　　After all the members of the team, including Harry, have also imposed a head-foaming charm, everyone put away their broomsticks and sank into the water of the Yichen River.

　　 The weather has actually been very warm recently, but unfortunately the sun has not been seen for too long in the UK, and the temperature has been very low. Right now the big guy was soaking in the water, and he couldn't help shivering.

　　 However, after experiencing the previous near-fatal crisis, there is no need to worry about the horror of death on the battlefield at any time than fighting hard. It doesn't seem to be a big deal to be frozen in the water.

　　 "pululu..."

　　 Hermione with a big bubble wrapped around her head turned to look at Harry. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, she made a "go" gesture at the friends.

　　 The next moment, she suddenly waved her wand and pointed behind her.

　　 "Boom!"

　　 As a stream of air exploded from the tip of her rod, she suddenly leaped forward. Although the speed was much slower than the flying broomstick, it was at least much better than swimming.

　　 When everyone saw this, they all followed her along the river to Winchester in the north.

　　……

　　 "Wow!"

　　 When Hermione and the others didn't know it was the first time they surfaced to reapply the Bubble Head Charm, the sky had gradually turned dark. Looking out from the left and right in the middle of the river, the surrounding space has become drowsy again, and I can't see far.

　　 "You stay here for a while, I'll go to the shore to take a look."

　　 Hermione panted slightly, paddling the water and swam slowly towards the river. As she gradually approached the river bank, a large shadowy figure in the shadow of the thick fog came into her eyes again.

　　 The density of living corpses here is already quite high, even higher than when they were besieged by a large group of living corpses on Downton's side. It’s by no means a good choice to go ashore here to look for signs that can be identified.

　　Hermione didn't even dare to get too close to the shore, because the living corpses were very sensitive to the fluctuations of the magical power of living people. Once they got close, they might be noticed at any time.

　　 Fortunately, she soon discovered that she had good luck this time, because the bank was a road along the river, and there was a street sign not far in front.

　　"Here! Winchester is ahead!"

　　 When Hermione was barely recognizing a few letters on the street sign, her tired face suddenly showed a look of joy-even if she was traveling under the water by a spell, but in order to maintain balance in the water , Such a long journey still requires a lot of physical strength.

　　 "Go ahead, and when you really enter the area near the ancient city of Winchester, the number of living corpses will be greatly reduced." Neville who also swam over said, "Last time we came here. That's it-Maca has sent people to empty all the living corpses in the ancient city, and there are patrols of wizards who can manipulate the black flames everywhere, and soon we will be completely safe."

　　 "Hmm."

　　 Hermione nodded, then followed Neville back to the middle of the river, beckoning everyone to move on.

　　 However, when they came out of the water again, Hermione found that the situation did not seem to be exactly what Neville said...

　　"Here...should we have reached the ancient city area, right?" Hermione supported the rocks on the riverside and looked at the shore a few more times, but suddenly felt a horror, "What are those?"

　　 That's right, there really seems to be many figures walking and patrolling on the shore, but... Black Flame Wizard? No, no, no, those guys who use black flames to fend off enemies may seem a little weird, but Hermione has heard from Harry that they usually act like normal people except when they are in battle.

　　 However, the figures on the shore have a humanoid posture, even if they look through the fog. But the very stiff and weird walking posture of those "human figures" made Hermione look like a human in no way.

　　 Seriously, compared to the guys above, Hermione felt that the living corpses outside looked more like people!

　　 After hesitating for a while by the river, she quietly returned to her companion and told everyone what she had seen.

　　"...Have you seen the puppets? To be honest, after seeing the figures on the shore, the first thing I thought of was the puppets controlled by the silk thread by the puppet master."

　　 My friends who have faced too many terrible realities now ~ IndoMTL.com ~ naturally do not have much fear of this scene.

　　 It’s just that I thought that this place should have been the site of Maca, and some of them had just come here not long ago. This time I came again, but such a big and very strange change has taken place, which makes everyone very uneasy.

　　 "Oh! What the **** is Maca doing here!" Ron wiped the cold water on his face and muttered in a low voice, "Last time I came in'lying down', but I saw a lot of things...I think, in fact, those Black Flames are scary enough-all of them look like dead people. This time...Hermione, what did you just say? Dolls? "

　　 However, Neville shook his head and said:

　　"Actually! I think it should be okay... Anyway, this must be the site of Maca, which will not change? When I came before, I thought that he should be planning to stay here very much. For a long time-and as long as this is the place of Maca, we don't have to worry too much."

　　 "Hmm..."

　　 Hermione couldn’t help but nodded when she heard the words, she said after pondering for a moment:

　　"Also! And, we are all here, we have to go up and have a look-so be it! Neville, you protect everyone here, I will go ashore and try it out first."

　　 After speaking, she saw other people still talking, and immediately waved her hand to indicate that she didn't need to say more.

　　 "Leave it to me."
