The Diagon Alley Counterattack has officially begun.

In the fog, the radiance of magic spells kept flashing, and the sounds of shouts, chants, and explosions were all mixed together, making it impossible to tell what the situation of the confrontation on the front line was.

In the mist above everyone's heads, huge rocks sometimes cracked open and roared into the crowd; on the ground beneath everyone's feet, mud and rocks surged, and people were often dragged underground.

The most frightening thing is undoubtedly the miserable green arc of magic light that keeps streaking through the air. In such a chaotic battle, almost every arc of light means that at least one person will be killed instantly.

Human life seems to have suddenly become extremely cheap.

"boom"

I don't know at what moment, a kind of smoke and dust with a pungent smell suddenly broke into this magical battlefield. With every explosion, the soil flew up and the bricks and stones flew everywhere.

Immediately afterwards, a series of popping sounds came from a certain direction, causing the situation on the battlefield to become even more chaotic.

"what happened?"

Aberforth, who was fighting at the forefront, waved his wand violently, sending a dark wizard running wildly away. Then he turned his head slightly and asked Sirius loudly not far away.

The surrounding noise made it difficult for people to hear his voice clearly, no matter how loud it was.

Although Sirius on the other side didn't understand clearly, he could easily guess what Aberforth was asking because he himself was also puzzled by the sudden violent roar.

"I don't know either"

He first waved his staff to deflect a crushing spell coming from the front, and then roared back:

"However, Kingsley said that a Muggle army directly under the Queen may come to help us, and maybe they have actually come!"

"Muggle army?"

Aberforth glanced across the battlefield, but except for a large number of magical lights coming and going, he could see almost nothing. Judging from the location of the sound just now, the explosion should have come from

Looking at the side and rear direction of the dark wizard, if you think about it, it might be possible to do what Sirius said.

"Hopefully they can cause these guys a little trouble!"

"boom"

Before he finished speaking, there was only a strange scream, and then a ball of flames rose up on the dark wizard's side. Suddenly, a group of dark wizards were knocked down and pushed away by the huge impact, and even more unlucky ones were exploded on the spot.

It was shrouded and the scene was extremely tragic.

"Da da da da..."

The Muggle army's firearms fired again, bullets mixed with lines of tracer bullets, inserted diagonally from the side and rear of the dark wizard, guiding the direction in the misty fog.

Immediately afterwards, there was another roar, and the violent explosion and impact once again knocked away a dozen dark wizards who rushed towards the Leaky Cauldron, causing some of them to turn around and rush back.

Immediately, the pressure on the wizards fighting on the front lines with Sirius and Aberforth suddenly eased.

"Stop the pursuit, shrink back a little, and cooperate with the Muggle army!"

Suddenly, both Aberforth and Sirius heard Kingsley's voice coming from behind them. They quickly turned around, calling on their wizards to stop pressing temporarily, and looked in the direction of the sound.

passed.

And soon, they saw Kingsley, who was originally commanding from the rear, also rushing to the front line.

"Why are you here too? Just ask someone to pass on new instructions!"

Aberforth asked in a high voice, but Kingsley waved his hand and said:

"Don't worry, I have Lupine commanding me at the rear. You are not familiar with Muggles. Even if you send back the battle situation, you may not be able to grasp the key points, so I am here."

Kingsley is undoubtedly a "Muggle-savvy". Not only does he have a deep knowledge of all common sense in the Muggle world, he even concealed his identity as a wizard and was sent to serve as the secretary to the British Prime Minister.

He may be more knowledgeable about British Muggle society than Maka and Hermione.

"That's the third battalion of the Queen's Royal Hamilton Regiment. They will try their best to share the pressure on our side. But I must say that the Muggle army is not able to devote too much combat power here for the time being. After all,

This is urban London, and it is very difficult for them to fight here."

Hearing Kingsley come up and loudly explain the general situation on the other side of the battlefield, Sirius and Aberforth nodded to express their understanding.

In fact, they all understand this. Although there are relatively many Muggle troops in the London Garrison District, no one would have thought that another war would break out directly in the British capital. There is no such battlefield.

Commanders can come up with great battle plans.

Then, they heard Kingsley continue:

"So, if the Muggle army can suppress the dark wizards' side in this first wave of attacks, we will attack after they stop attacking; and if their first wave of attacks is not effective, I think the Queen's side will

Immediately ask them to retreat and defend to prevent the war from spreading further to the center of the city."

"And when the time comes, Sirius, you will lead someone to penetrate from the side... and try to separate the dark wizard as much as possible, do you understand?"

"OK!"

"Then you won't go back?" Aberforth asked as he backed away, "You will be defending here with me next?"

"In order to take Sirius's place," Kingsley shrugged, deflected a curse, and said without looking back, "Besides, I don't think Haierbo will be indifferent to this battlefield. At present,

Judging from the situation, he may not come in person, but he may send more combat forces to the scene."

In fact, it can be heard from Kingsley's words that he does not have high expectations for the Muggle army this time.

As he said, the power that the Muggle army can exert in urban London will inevitably be very limited, because many powerful and effective covering weapons cannot be deployed.

When it comes to the actual situation, Kingsley's view seems to be quite accurate.

At this moment, just behind those crazy dark wizards, the arrival of bullets and artillery fire really caught the dark wizards off guard for the first time. These groups of crazy wizards composed of ordinary believers, in the first few days,

A lot of people fell down within minutes.

But when they didn't care about the severity of their injuries and started to counterattack, the situation quickly changed.

They are crazy, but they are not stupid when it comes to fighting.

When a series of obstacle spells, division spells, collapse spells, transfiguration spells, and more disruptive spells rained down on the Muggle army's front line, the battle situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.

Here, the advantages of the Muggle army cannot be demonstrated. In addition, those lunatics are all fearless of death. With only an infantry battalion combined with a certain number of tanks and artillery, the battle becomes extremely difficult.

But it was not over yet. Just as Kingsley expected, Haierbo seemed to have been standing nearby and watching with cold eyes. At this moment, a black figure suddenly crossed the battlefield from one end.

It can be seen that the figure is surrounded by a piece of black viscous substance of uncertain shape, which floats in mid-air like liquid, but can turn into an indestructible protective shield when necessary.

There is no doubt that that is the kind of black-eyed wizard who fought against Maka together with Haierbo.

"Concentrated fire!"

I don't know which commander in the Muggle army roared, but after a brief pause, a large number of bullets soon poured towards the figure.

However, the black-eyed wizard seemed to have expected it and reacted extremely quickly. The black matter floating around him spread out in the blink of an eye, covering his entire body and forming a black sphere.

.

The next moment, with the clicking sound of a series of bullets hitting the hard wall, countless stray bullets flew everywhere in the group of dark wizards, injuring many people.

It's a pity that their original target didn't receive even a scratch.

"boom"

Suddenly, a cannonball fell from the side towards the black sphere in the battlefield at high speed, followed by a deafening explosion.

At that moment, even the ground seemed to tremble slightly.

However, when the smoke and dust cleared, the black ball was still intact, and even a smooth arc of light was reflected on the surface of the ball.

The battle between wizards and the war between Muggles are definitely two completely different concepts. So far, it cannot be said which side is stronger, but at least this battlefield is undoubtedly caused by these "minions" created by Haierbo.

More dominant.

"retreat!"

The command at the rear of the Muggle army was straightforward and decisive. As soon as they saw that the situation was not right, they immediately issued the order to retreat. Even though they were not familiar with wizards and magic, and most of them were even shocked, the discipline of the soldiers kept them always

Resolutely executing every instruction.

But to be honest, can they really withdraw?

Yes, if this new change had not occurred, this assigned army under the Fourth Division of the London Garrison District might really have been in big trouble.

Fortunately, when another equally swift figure rushed in from the crowd, the black-eyed wizard who had just half-sideways emerged from the black ball instantly turned his attention to the person.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

The figure that rushed in from the horizontal stab didn't say much at all. He suddenly waved his wand, and immediately saw a large number of ice cones condensing in the air, and then fell towards the black-eyed wizard at a speed comparable to the cannonball just now.

When the opponent saw this, he immediately sealed the black ball that had just been half released, and then there was an almost continuous violent collision.

Suddenly, the sky filled with crystal ice fragments exploded in the center of the battlefield, and the cold air flew everywhere.

In the distance, Sirius and others on the other side of the battlefield saw it, and their eyes suddenly lit up.

"Is Maka here?"
