"...This is a war that determines the future of human civilization... no, it is a war that determines the future of various races that have survived and thrived on the land beneath our feet for countless years!

That's right, it's not just us humans. I think it's not just humans watching this scene in front of the TV now, there are more... like goblins, giants, centaurs, even fish-men, etc.

Various 'magic' races.

And these races that in our minds originally existed only in myths, legends, and novels have finally come to us today, putting aside all the barriers caused by historical reasons in the past, standing side by side with us, and working together.

Rise against this terrible disaster!

Because now we are facing the same crisis!

Because now we have a common enemy!

At this moment, whether it is a human, a goblin, a centaur, a giant, a vampire, or a fish-man... I, all the viewers in front of the TV! Through the screen, I believe you have all seen what is behind me.

This scene——

Yes, each of their phalanxes is a magical resistance army composed of elite warriors who voluntarily gathered from our allies of the same race!

When ordinary people's force and non-magical conventional military weapons are mostly unable to exert normal combat effectiveness under the terrifying and strange demonic clouds, batch after batch of warriors with magic have forgotten life and death. In the past,

During the dark and boundless days, he used his own life to resist and slow down the impact and erosion of the 'demonic army' on the European mainland.

And today, they will once again dedicate their lives to the future of our civilization. In order to end this unprecedented disaster, the entire army set foot on the dark side of the old Britain on the other side, which has completely become a disaster place occupied by demons.

soil!

Friends, please pray with all your strength for them - for these heroes who have emerged from among us! Nowadays, this is all that ordinary people like us can do...

look!

The heroes set off!"

On the slightly blurry TV screen, the Muggle female reporter who was on the observation tower of Camp Granger no longer had the intention to continue looking at the camera, because at this moment, even he was on top of it.

On the wall at the lookout entrance, I stood on tiptoe and looked towards the beach to the north.

Just as she just said while holding up the microphone, there are phalanxes connected to phalanxes over there, and a large number of magic troops are lined up on the coast.

Since the door keys will be activated soon to carry out large-scale space transfers at the same time, in order to capture a relatively complete picture, the film crew could only stay as far away as possible from the beach where a large-scale magic reaction was about to occur, and chose the location at the entrance of the camp.

Use a telephoto lens to shoot live broadcasts on the watchtower.

But even though they were already so far away, when a large number of spatial distortion points suddenly appeared on the army on the beach following an order, all the viewers who were watching this scene in front of the TV discovered that the picture on the TV was still

It twisted and jumped uncontrollably.

By the time the live broadcast returned to calm, the beach that had been heavily guarded by the army was completely deserted, leaving only a seascape scene of waves crashing against the rocks.

Perhaps even the Muggle cameraman was shocked by the astonishing scene of collective space movement. After being stunned for a few seconds, he quickly closed the lens and turned around to remind the people passing by.

The figure of the female reporter returned to the camera frame.

"Ahem."

The reporter cleared his throat, adjusted his mood and facial expression, and then said:

"In order to eliminate evil, to end this unreasonable disaster, to restore peace to the world, and for the future of you and me - we will win! Okay, wait a moment, the live broadcast will continue, I will represent

Let's go interview some of the counterattack army logistics personnel who are still staying at 'Camp Granger' and let them talk to you..."

…

"I wonder what the Muggle reporter just now will say about us in front of that black box? Hermione, Harry, that's something that can show images on Muggle 'television', right? You should have watched it often when you were young..."

Just north of the former Redhill City in the old British disaster area, in a parking lot in front of a dilapidated old supermarket on the outskirts of the city, Ron was talking with great interest about the Muggle live broadcast he had just seen at the camp.

Something about the film crew.

Obviously, after experiencing various setbacks in the past, Ron, who could not even be defeated by the despair of losing his legs now, is probably one of the few big-hearted people in this group of people.

While the three heads of the three major families, Maxim, the president of the Federation, and Hermione, who had seen countless big scenes, were inevitably nervous and heavy, Ron, at least on the surface, still seemed

Seems relatively easy.

In fact, this group of them was the rest of the people who had gathered in the open space in the middle of the camp, except for the leaders of the army.

They, the real elites among the elites, did not set off with the large troops. Instead, they set out about half an hour in advance, and when the Muggle film crew had just arrived at the camp to find a shooting location, they set foot on this area.

disaster area.

I remember that someone had suggested beforehand that the army should probably land directly at the northern end of the disaster area, and then head straight to Hogwarts Castle, which might be the source.

However, after discussing with the three major families, as well as Madame Maxime, Hermione chose a relatively safe route. First, she gathered all the troops at the northernmost point of France through the Portkey, and then boarded a ship to cross the channel.

, and went all the way north along the southeastern coast of old Britain, and finally landed from the northeast.

After all, there were dark clouds hanging over the entire old Britain. No matter what, such a large army still had to rely on ships to get over. Fortunately, the Muggle military of various countries joined forces to support a group of transport ships, which gave this counterattack a promising start.

A good start.

However, because Hermione, as the commander-in-chief, insisted on returning to her old place and taking a look at London before rushing to Hogwarts, she brought everyone here one step ahead.

This is Redhill, south of London.

Here, we are very close to London, so close that even if we stand in this parking lot and look north, we can clearly see the powerful icicles reaching into the sky!

"Forget about live TV, Ron!"

Harry pursed his lips, stared straight at the frost-white giant pillar in front of him that still seemed to be astonishingly oppressive, and said in a low voice:

"Now that we have returned to this place, it undoubtedly means that the enemy will appear in front of us at any time... The battle has already begun."
