Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 2168: See the big from the small
It must be said that Luna’s attempt to lure the enemy to delay alone was not considered successful. She is just a person, and it is obviously impossible to hold the long line of living corpses for a long time.
But fortunately, Luna's original goal was achieved-during the time she led the living corpse to chase north, the Burrow had already done a good job in defense of the stronghold and even counterattack. Well prepared.
As for Luna... when she discovered that the living corpses controlled by the devil finally gave up chasing herself and turned to the west again, she was planning to go back to Hermione’s side as soon as possible. She happened to meet Sa Fenna.
"...I discovered that the queue of living corpses was diverted to the north. I thought it was Blois who came out again, but I didn't expect it to be Miss Lovegood, you came back from France."
When Luna saw Safina appear from the east, she found that the other person seemed very tired. After listening to Safina's personal story, Luna understood why the other party was so tired.
The answer is simple. During this time, Safina has been trying to find the "chief" from the long line of corpses. Maybe it was a demon, maybe a high-level living corpse, maybe even something else, but it wasn't really that important to her.
What she hopes to do is to find as much as possible the leader who makes this group of living corpses organized. And if the leader can be pulled out and dealt with before they attack the defense of the Burrow Stronghold, then it would be better!
However...it's a pity that she never found it no matter how she looked for it.
But to be honest, Safina's return empty-handed this time, she is actually not to blame. Because even Luna, who was able to actively detect the existence of the devil, has not really found it yet!
If you want to blame, you can only blame the demon who led the group of living corpses, because it is too capable of hiding-clearly in the team, but it seems that no one can find it.
"Actually, I just came back. I saw that the living corpses might be going to the Burrow, so I wanted to drag them first." Luna rode a flying broomstick and flew west with Safina. She said, "By the way, Safina, I took your sister Ursula to Bill's side. Although it is not very safe now, there is only a strait separated from this side, but actually , It seems that no place is absolutely safe at the moment."
On the other hand, after hearing Luna's words, Safina nodded in gratitude.
"Well, thank you anyway, as long as you don't let Ursula stay in conflict or danger, that's enough!"
The upheaval of the federation is naturally unknown to Safina, after all, Luna has not had time to say it yet. However, she had already learned about the previous Boothbaton corpse incident.
And when everything seems to be full of human selfishness and the threat of disaster, leaving Ursula in a relatively safe place within reach of her is definitely better than putting her far away Can make Safina feel at ease.
As this calamity cannot be calmed down day by day, the current situation is very different from before.
"Miss Lovegood, I think we have to speed up-if the living corpses have already begun to attack when we return to the Burrow, then we may not be able to enter the stronghold."
After saying this to Luna, Safina asked her to put away the broom, and then personally led her to speed up to the direction of the Burrow.
……
When Luna met Safina by chance on the way back, Charlie and Old Akinbad had already arrived at the stronghold with Miss Brandt, and led by Ron back to the base in the center of the stronghold. Home.
Leave aside the two "outsiders" Akinbad and Ida Brandt. For Charlie, this is equivalent to going home.
Even if the current Burrow is no longer the same Weasley’s home, but when he sees this house that has deliberately left most of its original shape, he still has a feeling of going home immediately. .
"Ron...Although it is definitely not the time to say this,...Where is Percy's cemetery?"
Charlie only sat in the living room with old Akinbard for a while, and couldn't help but drag his brother Ron to the side and asked in a low voice.
Ron couldn't help hesitating for a moment when he heard the words, and then pointed a finger in the direction of the backyard.
"I'm not going to call Ginny... In fact, she hasn't calmed down in her heart during this period of time. It's just because the outside is full of dangers, and we have things we can't finish every day. That’s why Percy’s affairs were forcibly suppressed. So...you can go by yourself if you want to see it! Not far, just inside the stronghold, you can see from the backyard..."
In fact, it wasn't just Ginny, Ron himself obviously couldn't let go. Therefore, in the end he did not go with Charlie, but chose to stay in the living room.
And just as Charlie and Ron went to one side to talk in a low voice, Old Akinbad sitting on the other side was looking at them with a little thoughtful expression.
He knew of Percy Weasley's death.
In other words, in fact, everyone who is currently qualified to know about this matter already knows about it, only Mrs. Weasley is still deliberately kept in the dark.
Of course, there are actually many people who are not qualified or necessary to know about this. For example, Miss Brandt, who is sitting across the coffee table, is a little fidgeting, is one of them.
Naturally, she didn't know Percy's sacrifice, nor did she want to know, because her own business was enough to make her feel bad.
"Mr. Akinbad, I have to... I have to go and tell Miss Granger first... You know, what Mrs. Maxim wants me to do~IndoMTL.com~ However, old When Akinbad heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head.
Most things are time-sensitive, and the agreement between Ida and Maxim is obviously the same. By now, the matter had already passed completely, and probably only this Miss Brandt was still uneasy.
It's just that, depending on how much life matters, Akinbard is not good at talking about her-even if the truth of the curse has long been doubtful.
"If you want to go, go!" After a short pause, Old Akinbad said, "It's just that the corpse team is about to arrive. Miss Granger probably has no time--"
After all, Ida couldn't hear what he said, so she got the first sentence, got up and ran out of the door. Without the person who spoke, Old Akinbad had to withdraw the words that followed and shook his head here.
Everyone has their own things and their own ideas. The performance of this Miss Brandt is actually the true situation of many wizards at present, which can't help but make people worry.
