harry potter book of crimes

"Ron... we are all here. You must hold on. We will reach Winchester in just a short distance!"

Harry and the others, who set off for Winchester first, arrived later than Sarah who brought Ursula with her, but this was actually nothing surprising.

Because Ron was injured, and the injury was not serious. If it weren't for his extraordinary recovery ability, the war situation was so urgent that there was no way to rescue him immediately. Others would have died on the way.

"Don't worry...Harry, I can't die."

Ron, who was being carried by Neville with his patronus, lay on the back of the silver lion and waved his hands with some difficulty.

It can be seen that there are scorch marks from his shoulders to his back, as if he was burned by something with extremely high temperature.

Although he was given medicine in time and coupled with his own healing ability, the wound has recovered. However, because the burns and scalds seemed to have some special power that affected his muscles, he was now very nervous.

Hard to move.

What is worth mentioning is that the person who caused him to be seriously injured was a high-level living corpse. And that guy is not dead yet. He was only injured by Harry's sword and temporarily hid in the surrounding fog.

among.

It was a high-level zombie with intelligence. Even Harry and Blois had to admit that he was extremely difficult to deal with. Therefore, they did not dare to fly or even walk too fast at the moment. They needed to be on guard against that person at all times.

A high-level zombie strikes again.

But the other party just didn't appear again. It was like a cunning beast that had been hiding in the dark, constantly wearing down the endurance and patience of Harry and others with the help of other living corpses around them.

"Mr. Blois, have you sensed its location?"

After entering for a while while fighting, Harry couldn't help but ask again. When Blois, who was at the end of the team, heard this, he immediately said:

"It's constantly moving, and you can sometimes detect it... But even if you know where it is, so what? Can you leave the team?"

Blois's rhetorical question made Harry scratch his head helplessly after he raised his sword and chopped down another ordinary zombie.

At present, he and Blois are working in tandem. Protecting Ron and the others among the living corpses is already the limit. Without anyone, it is impossible. Fortunately, they can continue to advance slowly while fighting, otherwise

, even if they persist, it will be meaningless.

With this thought, Harry could only calm down and continue to move forward step by step while wielding the Sword of Gryffindor. Tiredness was accumulating in his body, but they could no longer rest.

At this point, Harry was already secretly thinking that if the high-level zombie appeared again, he would have no choice but to activate the anger rules in the Sword of Gryffindor. Even if there would be some sequelae, even if it was likely to be destroyed by Hale

Bo noticed, but he couldn't just watch Ron and the others die, right?

"etc."

After a while, Harry, who was walking in front, was suddenly startled and said with some confusion:

"Do you think... there are fewer living corpses?"

"indeed."

Blois looked around, frowned and nodded, but his footsteps did not stop.

"Don't be stunned, keep moving forward... Maybe this means that we are almost there." He said, "Although, it may not be where we thought... there must be something lurking ahead."

After the words fell, the group of them continued to move forward. As they walked, Harry noticed that there were fewer and fewer living corpses in front of them, and in the end there were almost no traces at all.

"Ahead is the ancient city," Harry said. "I wonder if Willie is here."

"Just go and take a look and you'll find out."

Blois held the wand tightly, and the flame dragon he summoned had returned to the top of the team because there were no enemies, and the team's pace gradually accelerated a little.

But at this moment, Blois suddenly turned around, raised his wand, and reminded:

"Behind! It's coming"

As soon as it finished speaking, the flaming flying dragon suddenly turned around and pounced into the fog behind them. But soon, it was hit back by a fireball comparable to its huge body, and the fire rain flew away for a while.

Blois raised his wand high, and an invisible magic shield blocked the team from the flying rain of fire, but the surrounding area quickly turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Everyone had to stop.

"Hannah, Ginny, please help take care of Ron first."

Neville waved his wand and sent Ron, who was lying on the back of the silver lion, towards Hannah. Then he jumped down and commanded the patron saint of the silver lion to jump back alone.

At the same time, the high-level zombie who had severely injured Ron finally revealed his figure in the mist behind the team.

It was a tall living corpse. Although it was still in human form, its body was no longer what a human should look like. Rock-like muscles spread all over the body, cracked piece by piece, and there was lava flowing in the gaps. One picture

There was no mouth or nose on the angular face, only a pair of narrow holes, inside which two masses of orange light were beating continuously. The sparse hair on the head was neither black nor white, but red like a flame.

If Maka or Willy were here, they would be able to recognize it at a glance. This is one of the four high-level living corpses they saw in front of Herbo Seat.

It was silent, and as soon as it appeared, it suddenly raised its palm. As a mark flashed suddenly, flames emerged from the palm of the hand, and spat straight towards Blois, who was standing at the back of the team.

"It is indeed a regular rune."

Mr. Blois, who is also good at controlling flames, narrowed his eyes and was not afraid at all. As he waved his wand, the flame dragon quietly dissipated, and then the ground rose up, accurately blocking the opponent's flame attack.

Immediately afterwards, the arched earth wall rumbled, and then turned into a giant statue and ran straight towards the opponent.

"boom!"

After a punch, the lava zombie dodged and the colossus also stepped back again, using its body to protect the front of Bulova.

Now is obviously not the time to advance rashly. The Colossus is not as agile and quick as its opponent, so it is better to defend than to attack.

"Potter, I'm here to guard you. Go ahead! I'll cover you."

When Blois opened his mouth, Neville's Silver Lion Patronus had already circled behind the lava zombie and bit the guy's neck.

"Harry, I pestered him."

Harry, who was holding the Sword of Gryffindor, nodded slightly, passed by Neville, and rushed towards the battlefield quickly.

"Be careful!"

Neville couldn't help but add another sentence, but Harry obviously didn't have time to respond.

"boom"

Another ball of flames erupted from the lava corpse, causing Harry to pause.
