Chapter 2618 ready
In fact, when it comes to accepting Maca, except for Harry, who is still a little bit convinced, the friends including Hermione have already gradually acquiesced in their hearts.
And for Hermione, the moment the wand, which was handcrafted by Maca and finally engraved with her name, was handed over to her as a gift, it was tantamount to a wand with only one minute left. That is, the high side of the tray balance that can reach equilibrium, the last feather that finally falls.
A wand model without any magical effect is naturally not worth much, but in Hermione's heart, the meaning it represents is enough to play a decisive role.
It would be great if Hermione could convince Harry again!
Luna's voice rang in her ears, and it could be heard that she was in a really good mood at the moment with a slight sound at the end of her words, and she was happy for Maca for Hermione's performance just now.
Yes! Maca nodded, with a smile on his face, I hope everything goes well!
...
The trip of Maca and others led by Hermione seems to have a lot of variables, as if they may encounter danger at any time, otherwise they would not have only brought a group of wizards with the strongest combat capabilities in the army to carry out activities.
But compared to their elite team, which basically had no danger all the way from south to north, it seems that the army that landed from the east coast would be more likely to go from east to west to the northwestern highlands of Great Britain safely. It was even more difficult for Hermione's party, who happened to take the Hogwarts Express directly to the foot of the woods near Hogsmeade.
In the few hours before noon, Harry and Neville went in two directions, trying to explore the woods to the north.
After Harry himself and Neville's Patronus returned one after another, Hermione integrated the information brought back by the two of them and quickly came to a conclusion——
Probably, the entire Scottish Highland forest area north of the place where they are now stationed is full of wandering corpses.
In connection with the fact that the living corpses in the northern part of the disaster area have not been brought under the command of the greedy demon, it is obvious that the group of living corpses scattered in the north has now been concentrated in Hogwarts by a certain will. In this deep mountain and old forest where the castle is located.
But the good thing is that the first batch of magic troops who are currently landing from the coast near Edinburgh in the east according to the original plan, at least in number, are definitely much larger than Hermione and the small group of people.
Even though they may be a little lacking in terms of individual strength, they are all powerful alliances with the wizard army of the three major families as the baseline.
As long as they can still abide by the requirements of the plan after landing, and don't be greedy when they find a large number of living corpses in the highland mountains, it should be no problem to come here to join Hermione's team smoothly.
What's more, it's not that there is no strong combat force leading the team there!
Not to mention anything else, just the powerful alchemy doll of Sarah left in the first batch of landing troops is obviously enough to protect them from accidents when they are unlucky enough to encounter a small number of high-level living corpses. of personnel were lost.
Sure enough, after a night of exploring in rotation and waiting calmly, Neville's patron saint of the lion brought everyone good news - outside the forest in the east, he encountered a man who was marching along the road at the foot of the mountain. The vanguard of the first counterattack army...
The leader is Samuel. He saw me, and I pointed out the direction for him. I think that in half a day at most, the vanguard he led will be able to come and join us!
In the open area of the camp with a bonfire lit, Neville, who opened his eyes, was reporting the situation to Hermione.
For this kind of work as a spy going deep into an area full of enemies, conducting large-scale investigations and long-distance communication, he, who is good at the Patronus Charm, is even more suitable than Harry, who is already extremely powerful in personal combat. There is no doubt that Neville has found his true place in the team.
As for the Samuel that Neville just mentioned, needless to say, it is naturally one of the heirs of the three major families who tried to take the role of bait, the young lazy priest Samuel of the Rossi family. Julius Rossi.
On the side, hearing that the little grandson had successfully led the vanguard to the nearby area where there was only half a day left for the journey, the old head of the Rossi family couldn't help but nodded in relief, but didn't say anything.
He knew very well that it was Hermione Granger who made the decision now, and even if it wasn't Hermione Granger, there was still a Maca sitting not far away who really made him willing to take a backseat.
He just needs to know that his grandson is fine, and that's enough.
Then lead them the way! We can meet up as soon as possible, so we can explore the depths of the forest as soon as possible. Hermione said to Neville without a pause. She had already considered these things many times in her heart. up.
it is good.
Neville responded, and then closed his eyes again. Although the patron saint has a strong connection with the spell-casting wizard himself, and the power of the patron saint's spell can faintly restrain the power of evil, but in this ghostly place shrouded in strange clouds, if he wants to maintain ultra-long-distance control, even Neville must It takes a lot of concentration.
On the opposite side of him, Hermione turned her head and glanced at the woods to the north again through the flames of the campfire. When she turned her head back again, there was still worry faintly discernible in her eyes reflecting the firelight.
Harry will probably be back soon. I reminded him not to rely on his strength to go too deep. He should be measured. She said to everyone sitting around the campfire, When he comes back this time, there may be The news we want may be able to determine how much resistance we will encounter on our way to Hogsmeade Village.
I'm ready!
Ron patted the rune arm shield on his left arm and said loudly.
Seeing this, Hermione glanced over the square arm shield, and then subconsciously looked towards Maca not far away.
It was almost dawn now, and after a night, of course Maca was no longer sitting under the old Scotch pine at noon yesterday. Nothing happened during the night, he was resting in the tent over there, and from here he could only see some light shining through the gaps in the tent's curtains.
From the looks of it, he probably didn't fall asleep either, at most he just took a nap.
After being stunned for a moment, Hermione looked towards the east of the forest again. Through the slight gaps between the canopies, the eastern sky can already be seen to be slightly whitening.
Well, she squeezed the wand in her pocket and murmured softly, I'm ready too.
