harry potter book of crimes

"Roar--"

Crazy screams constantly overlapped in the battlefield, like the beating of war drums in disorder, rushing into the sky. But on the way, the thick clouds were like a solid pot lid, tightly buckling them in

In this raging and boiling "cauldron".

Countless living corpses rushed towards the other side of the defense line. Their eyes were different from those of the same kind in Britain, and they were all burning with dark flames.

At a glance, it looks like the evil spirits from purgatory have come to the human world.

"The impact spell is firing! The herb team is preparing...the herb team is replenishing vine seeds! The impact spell is covering the round shot...the wall of the corroding spell is solidified...the rotation of the group protection spell has begun..."

The wizards belonging to the Blois family lined up neatly in front of the formation, and the commanders on the front line issued instructions tacitly, and the many teams performed their duties without any confusion.

In the current crisis, this time they are fighting on their own homeland. Behind them is their homeland. No matter what, they cannot take another half step back.

However, it was not them who really stabilized the defense line after it was on the verge of collapse.

"Chi chi chi..."

Countless nets of corpses were surging like snakes outside the stone wall with dark spikes. As the wizards of the herb team used magic spells to release the seeds one after another, the density of the thorns and vines was still there.

Continue growing.

On the ground, living corpses were dragged down one after another, clinging, entangled, tightened, and then pulled into the sea of ​​vines. No one knew whether those living corpses submerged in thorns had been eliminated, but at least, they were still ferocious there.

Under the offensive of the zombie army, this long line of defense near the northern border of France was finally temporarily stabilized!

No one has time to cheer for this, because the battle is still going on and the crisis is far from over.

But at this moment, in the middle of the endless wave of living corpses, there was an open space where not even a living corpse dared to step into it. In the open space, there were more than a dozen high-level people of different heights, short, fat, and thin.

Living corpses, surrounded by the black figure standing in front of them.

"laugh--"

A thorn that had been snaking underground for nearly half of the battlefield suddenly popped up from the soil. It shook very quickly, as if to test the surrounding situation. But in the next moment, it was struck by a strong and powerful force.

The soles of his feet suddenly stepped on him, and he struggled a few times but could not break free.

Then, I saw the thorny vine paused for a moment, and then submerged into the soil again.

The owner of that foot might have the ability to keep it, but he didn't do that. He just allowed the soil under his feet to loosen suddenly, and the thorn vines fled in a hurry.

The figure retracted his right foot, raised his head again, and looked at the end of the battlefield where the living corpses were swarming - the temporary fortress behind the French border. This place was already in sight.

"Interesting plants... This actually reminds me of a person," he said leisurely to himself, "the owner of the big sea of ​​trees that planted oak trees."

The words gradually fell, mixed with the roars of the seemingly endless living corpses around him, and were almost inaudible.

And a moment later, he suddenly waved his right hand forward. Immediately afterwards, four of the dozen or so high-level living corpses standing behind him seemed to have received some order.

The dim black flames suddenly burst out of his eyes, and a cold and fierce aura suddenly burst out.

The next second, four figures were suddenly wrapped in black flames, and flew out toward the distant defense line with astonishing momentum and speed.

…

"Miss, various family branches are organizing the sixth batch of troops. The death curse master team of our headquarters has responded to the call, and the twelfth potion master team is waiting to be stationed on the northern defense line... In addition, the new Allied Forces Department of the Federation sent a secret letter requesting

Join the battle from the side to assist us."

The observation room on the top floor of the fortress looked a little shabby. Apart from a table and a few armchairs, there was only a magic map hanging on the side wall showing the real-time dynamics of the defense line.

There is no way. Although this fortress standing in the dense forest behind the defense line is tall enough and strong enough, it also has a lot of protective magic solidified on it. But it is a temporary construction after all, and... no one knows how it can be used.

How long to use it.

In front of the observation window, a girl named Willie wearing a big pointed wizard hat was gently holding the rough stone window sill with her soft and white fingertips. She was listening to the calm report of the old housekeeper behind her and looking at it quietly.

distance.

After waiting for a while, after the old housekeeper finished reporting one by one in a simple and orderly manner, the girl nodded slightly.

"We want to thank Madame Maxime, but we have to ask her to wait."

Before he finished speaking, the old butler immediately turned around and gave instructions to the middle-aged deacon who had been waiting at the door since just now:

"Reply a letter to the Federation to express gratitude, and inform the new department that the Allied forces are temporarily stationed in Switzerland to wait for our signal."

"yes!"

With a reply, the deacon immediately turned around and left from the door.

There were only two people left in the observation room again.

After a few seconds of silence, only the roar of the zombie army on the other side of the defense line and the roar of various magics lingered in the air, which was annoying.

But the girl still seemed very calm.

"Miss," the old housekeeper seemed a little unable to bear it, "at least...let me take you to retreat to the second line of defense first! The first line of defense may collapse again at any time, and by then, I'm afraid it may not be able to survive.

Stabilized again like last time.”

However, when the girl heard this, she turned around slightly and showed a quiet smile to the old housekeeper.

In the past, it would have been harder to see such an expression on this girl's face than to resurrect Merlin. But now, it was truly displayed in the eyes of the old butler.

Looking at that beautiful and delicate face, as well as the warm smile on it, the old man who had worked in the Blois family for nearly his whole life suddenly became more determined to protect his young lady with his own life.

But the girl then shook her head.

"Don't worry, if that time comes, I will leave."

After saying this, the girl turned back again and continued to cast her gaze towards the world outside the window. But this time she did not look towards the other side of the defense line, but lowered her head slightly, as if she was feeling something.

He looked steadily at the lush forest below the window.

And it was at this moment that four black spots appeared from the rear of the battlefield and rushed toward the defense line at extremely fast speeds.

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom——"

Four consecutive balls of black flame suddenly exploded on the transparent barrier formed by the group protection spell. The strong impact caused ripples in the barrier, and there were even clearly visible cracks in one of them. Although the cracks soon appeared in the protection group

The wizards continued to cast asylum spells to heal quickly, but it was clear that a new round of crisis had arrived!
