"Gah——"

Suddenly, a sharp sound like the tip of a knife slicing through glass inexplicably sounded in a deserted neighborhood, followed by several hoarse desperate cries.

Then, with a loud "bang", the already dilapidated three-story building was completely reduced to ruins.

"Run away! My dear, take Leonie and run eastward, the faster the better! I...I will stop it..."

The voice of a German man suddenly covered up the other two exclamations, but the panic contained in them was no less than the latter.

"Hans... no! Even if we are going to die, we should at least die together!"

He was answered by a female voice full of reluctance, but what followed was several consecutive bangs, as well as large amounts of dust and masonry debris.

As for the man who seemed to be called "Hans", he was probably in serious danger at the moment.

In this sudden invasion war, conversations like this were naturally indispensable. Although western Germany began to organize evacuation early, it was a pity that there was never enough time. When the army of zombies crossed the border from the Netherlands and Denmark, they attacked

At that time, there were still many civilians who never had time to leave their hometown where they had lived for half their lives.

However, it is obvious that those who can support themselves until now even when the Brandt family's Fire Dragon Legion has repeatedly retreated are probably not ordinary families.

Yes, this is actually a German wizarding family that failed to move their family in time at the critical moment - no matter what the reason was that caused them to be stranded on this battlefield, these few days must have been like a journey to their family.

In purgatory.

"Hans——"

Amidst another cry mixed with pain, a woman holding a child was seen stumbling out from the ruins of the collapsed house, using the cover of the high smoke and dust to run desperately along the street.

Run to the east.

But every few steps she ran, she still couldn't help but look back, obviously still looking forward to seeing her husband following from behind.

Oh! Something really came out of that dust! But looking at the weird figure of "Quack" screaming and using its limbs, it was definitely not her poor husband Hans!

"Flying sand and moving rocks——"

The woman held her child in her arms and ran staggeringly. It was obvious that it was impossible to escape the pursuit of the terrifying figure behind her. But it was not known whether it was the instinct to protect the child or some other force that made her particularly special.

He waved the wand in his hand backhand in time, and three quite powerful impacts were instantly shot out from the tip of the wand, intercepting the crazy figure quickly and powerfully.

But unfortunately, her magic spell was accurate enough - the three impacts were shot out in a triangle shape, and as expected, blocked the opponent's space to move and dodge, but the strength of the magic spell was far from enough.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two consecutive impacts hit the running figure, one of which even hit the opponent's head directly, but the opponent's forward speed did not slow down at all.

"ah!"

It was always inconvenient to run away with the child in his arms, but he saw the woman tripping over a stone at her feet and falling heavily on the cracked street pavement.

So the only thing she could do was to hold the child in her arms tightly at the moment she fell.

"Gah——"

The same harsh sound that sounded like the tip of a knife scratching glass sounded again now, and now I finally saw that it turned out to be the roar of the monster!

The figure that looked like a human but was running on all fours quickly rushed to the place where the woman fell like a gust of wind. One hand had already been raised violently, and it was about to swing down hard at the woman's head and face.

But at this moment...

"Avada Kedavra."

Suddenly, a green arc of light ejected from the ruins where the two men rushed out, crossed an arc with lightning speed, and accurately landed on the back of the humanoid monster.

"boom!"

The moment the monster that had leaped into the air was hit by the sudden killing curse, it was suddenly bounced away as if it was electrocuted. It passed over the woman's head and slammed into a house not far behind her.

In the yard.

"Hans——"

The woman who almost closed her eyes and waited for death with her child hurriedly looked towards the ruins, and sure enough she saw an embarrassed figure crawling out from the flying dust. But the man was covered in blood.

Looking like he's dying? I'm afraid he won't live long.

"Honey, let's go!"

The man's left arm bone had obviously been broken into several sections and was dragged limply to his side. His lower body was also covered in blood. He could only drag his body forward with his right hand still holding the wand.

But even though his consciousness was almost blurred, he still wanted to go further? At least he wanted to use his right hand that could still move to use a magic spell to escort his wife and daughter to escape from this nightmare.

"Hans!"

The woman had already climbed up from the ground. Although she also knew that it was best for her to continue running away with the child. But her beloved husband was dying in front of her eyes. Making choices again and again was really embarrassing.

People are at a loss what to do!

"Think...child...be careful!"

The man originally wanted to persuade his wife to run away. No matter whether she could run away or not, at least it would be better than staying here. However, at this moment, the mutation happened again!

"Gah!"

The extremely harsh and familiar roar made both of them shudder - how could it be possible? That was the killing curse he had used with all his strength just now! But it didn't even kill that guy?

And at the moment when the two of them were in complete astonishment, with a soft "crunch" that no one noticed, a clump of thorny vines suddenly burst out of the ground behind the woman and headed towards that place with incomparable ferocity.

The courtyard "swelled" past.

"Ma'am, please come this way."

In an alley not far away, several figures appeared one after another. There were men, women, old and young, but most of them looked quite capable.

When she heard the old man in a tuxedo calling her over, the woman was stunned for a moment, and then she realized what she was doing and ran towards her husband and the group of people who suddenly appeared.

"Miss, is that a high-level living corpse?"

The old housekeeper, who had just greeted the other party in proficient German, now smoothly switched back to French and spoke softly to Willie beside him.

"no."

Willie never glanced at the couple. Her eyes only stayed in the ruins of the courtyard not far away from the beginning to the end. When the old housekeeper asked, she only shook her head slightly and said:

"But if we leave it alone, it is indeed possible to continue evolving."

While the two were talking, they saw vines flying and surging in the yard, and several strange and harsh roars came out one after another.
