"call out"

Accompanied by a sharp and ear-piercing whistling sound, a stream of light passed straight through the group of living zombies. Then, an explosion sounded loudly from the middle of the zombie army, and a large impact mixed with cold current spread in a ring, affecting the entire area.

All living corpses, large and small, were frozen into ice sculptures.

In terms of group lethality, this ice blast may be the most powerful magic that Maka has cast today.

However, even if the freezing effect covers a wide area, it is still quite limited compared to the entire zombie army. This undoubtedly proves that it seems difficult for Maka alone to completely destroy the enemy in front of him.

It's possible.

"Um?"

And just when Maka wanted to take this opportunity to rest for a few seconds to catch his breath, suddenly, a very familiar magic power came from the air and broke into his sensing range.

"Hermione?"

At that moment, Maka in the battlefield was seen waving his hand, freezing all the "fish that slipped through the net" that ran in front of him, and then turned back to look at the orange-red sky.

Sure enough, a figure riding a broomstick immediately came into his sight.

At about the same time, Kingsley and others, who had been paying attention to Maka's battle in the battlefield, couldn't help but follow his gaze and turned their heads.

Maka looked at Hermione who was approaching quickly from the air and quickly swooped down. After thinking for a moment, her eyes naturally fell on the young man standing between Kingsley and Harry.

"Are you here to find him?"

After thinking for a moment, Maka immediately turned around and waved her hand again. The invisible magic blade based on the Shadowless Curse of the Divine Edge was immediately mixed with cold air and slashed towards the group of living corpses like a huge crescent moon.

In an instant, a large number of enemies were cut in half like weeds, but because of the mixed frozen power, no blood was shed.

The next second, Maka raised her hand again, and as the earth surged, the living corpse that fell to the ground was immediately buried deep into the ground.

After doing all this, Maka stepped back and almost came to Kingsley and the others together with Hermione who had landed.

"Maka!"

"Oh, you're here?"

It would definitely be a lie to say she wasn't tired, but Maka still waved her right hand gently towards Hermione, and the smile on her face still made people feel very light.

"I heard that the evacuation of the people in Faversham Town is almost completed?"

"Yes! It's almost over." Hermione nodded, "It should be over before sunset. I already confirmed it with them when I left..."

As she spoke, she seemed to be looking at Maka's expression cautiously, and then hesitated before whispering:

"Maka, don't you...don't blame me for acting arbitrarily? You even punished Neville to write a paper before."

"Well," Maka couldn't help but shrugged after hearing this, "To be honest, personally, I still don't agree with your decision to run out of Spiral Town privately! But it turns out that your behavior can also be said to be

You have done me a big favor...If it weren’t for your help in evacuation in Faversham Town, there might have been a lot of casualties again tonight.”

Having said this, Maka paused for a moment, then nodded to Hermione and said:

"So...you saved those lives!"

While Maka and Hermione were talking, Gary stood aside and stared blankly at the two of them looking back and forth. Looking at him, he seemed to want to say something, but he never found a chance to interrupt.

And more importantly, the person he was trying to talk to didn't seem to notice his presence at all.

It wasn't until the two of them had finished their greetings that Maka turned her head to look at Gary, spread her hands and said:

"Hermione, are you here to see this boy?"

"I"

"Mr. MacLean!"

Before Hermione could answer, Gary finally couldn't help but said loudly:

"It was my fault that I recognized the wrong person just now, but... please save my grandpa! I know that if anyone else can save my grandpa's life now, apart from Haierbo, you are the only one left!

"

"...Gary?"

These words seemed to touch Hermione's heart.

In fact, when she saw Gary's figure on the front line, she had already realized that she might have misunderstood the boy before. But now after hearing that request, she finally confirmed the other person's true thoughts.

Yes, maybe it was because she said earlier that it was impossible for Maka to save Gary's grandfather that Gary decided to sneak to the front line to find Maka himself.

And more importantly, even if Maka is here now, Hermione doesn't know whether Gary's grandfather should be saved or not.

Thinking of this, she subconsciously touched the beaded handbag around her waist.

Of course, although Hermione knew exactly what Gary was talking about, Maka had no way of knowing. Even after seeing the expressions on Hermione and Gary's faces, she could more or less associate some of the situation.

After glancing at Hermione's hand pressing on the bag, he then looked at Gary, whose face was slightly lowered.

"Save your grandpa?"

"Yes."

Gary bit his lower lip, reminding himself that he must be careful with his words in front of this MacLean. After all, no matter how bad his temper was, or how arrogant he usually was, he still understood the attitude he should have when asking for help.

What's more, after witnessing the other party's magic just now, he probably didn't have the arrogance to be arrogant.

"Grandpa was seriously injured in London not long ago. Although he escaped, he was too seriously injured... and I heard from my uncle that grandpa seemed to have been hit by some terrible curse..."

"Hermione," Maka listened and suddenly turned her head and asked, "What happened to his grandfather? You should know about it, right?"

"Well, I know," Hermione saw Maca looking at her, and immediately put down the hand covering the bag, nodded slightly, "His grandfather... was a dark wizard, and once followed Voldemort."

"'Ex-Death Eater'?"

Maka turned to look at Gary again with a clear understanding, and said quite bluntly:

"I think you should be very aware of the grievances between me and Voldemort, and even more aware of my attitude towards the Death Eaters, so you deliberately avoided your grandfather's identity and his intention to go to London in recent days, right?"

"I...I didn't!"

Gary obviously hesitated when he answered.

"Okay!" Maka shook her head, "Seeing as you are trying to save your loved ones, I won't bother you more on this point. But, don't tell me whether I can be saved or not. Let me save you.

For a person who is probably my enemy, I think you should at least give me a reason first, right?"

After hearing Maka's words, Gary finally fell into silence with a stiff face.

Seeing that the boy remained silent, Maka waved to Hermione, then turned around and walked to the other side... Harry, who was not far away, saw this and couldn't help but follow after thinking about it.
