Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

"It's unbelievable...Look behind us! It's as crowded as a Quidditch World Cup audience right now, but when you get in, you can't even see half a living corpse? This...is Who knocked over this can of sardines that was supposed to be full of fish? Why is the 'fish' on the outside of the 'can'?"

After a lot of hard work, everyone finally crossed the front bridge repaired with ghoul net vines, broke through the blockade of the enemy group in one go, and rushed straight to the long-lost campus.

Now Ron's speed is really extraordinary. After Maca and Harry, who were at the front with absolute strength, stepped into the front court first, he was the third to enter the door.

And after looking at the situation inside the door with concentration, he couldn't help but be the first to speak in amazement, and of course it was him.

"What kind of fish, canned, stop talking nonsense!"

Harry grabbed Ron and dragged him behind the bushes where he and Maka were hiding together, while Maka was doing the same to the others who came in later.

The vestibule at Hogwarts is really empty, especially near the school gate. Except for the lawn or lawn, there is almost no shelter available. That is, crouching behind the bushes in front of the fence wall, from a distance, it is barely considered that it is not so dazzling.

When he was free for a while, Harry couldn't help but turn his head. The dense corpses outside the iron fence were still in front of him. To be honest, it's no wonder that Ron couldn't help sighing just now.

"Is there any force preventing them from entering the school?" He stared at the terrifying scene outside the fence and couldn't help but whisper to himself.

And not far away, Maca's attention was obviously long outside the campus.

From here, you can actually see the entire front of Hogwarts Castle very clearly. It can be seen that the campus today is showing a very strange atmosphere as a whole.

First of all, as I mentioned before, when looking from a distance outside, you can see that the castle is almost "immersed" in a kind of black smoke. Up close now, it's still the same.

It's just that the tall castle's main gate, which can't be seen in the distance, is still open for some reason. It seems to be filled with black mist inside the gate, just like those open windows on the castle, thick black smoke flows out, and goes down the stairs in front of the gate all the way, until it reaches the brick road and grass in front of it. They were all covered with slightly undulating black air.

However, the strange thing is that after leaving the castle itself about twenty feet, the black smoke that spreads over the nearby lawn like a carpet, but it seems to have hit an invisible wall, and it is all bound around the castle. Within a certain range, it cannot continue to spread out.

This also makes the entire vestibule still mostly "clean", and inside and outside the clear boundary, it seems to be completely two worlds.

But what surprised Maca the most was actually not this. What he is most curious about is the state of the various trees and vegetation in the vestibule today.

It must be said that, apart from the terrible appearance on the other side of the castle, the ecological environment in most areas of the entire campus is really amazingly good, even to the extent that it makes people feel a little weird—

The lawn in the vestibule was fresh and green, and the trees in the direction of the forbidden forest were still lush. It also seemed to be alive with life.

Even the beating willow, the cocoon that originally hung all over it, has long since disappeared, and a lot of new shoots have been drawn from the note. Vitality and comfort.

Compared with the barren and disaster-stricken land that everyone has seen along the way, the contrast here is so obvious that it makes people feel fresher and more beautiful than Hogwarts in the past!

"I saw grass that wasn't withered and yellow again! But I never thought that the place where the whole disaster area could see fresh and tender green would be here - I thought it was the most unlikely place to see this scene. Place!" Neville, who was squatting not far from Maca, was obviously surprised by the vitality of this place, and couldn't help saying this at this time.

On the other side of Maca, Willie, who has always liked plants the most, has already lowered her head and turned over the bushes and grass at her feet. She seems to be very curious, what is it that allows the vegetation here to grow so healthy in a severely polluted magical environment...

"I have a proposal."

Just when everyone was deeply shocked by the various scenes in the school, Maca's voice suddenly sounded, breaking the silence here.

And it was probably at this time, including Maca, that everyone realized after a little bit of hindsight that there was something very wrong on the campus:

It's so quiet here!

In this campus, there is such a vibrant scene, but there is not even the slightest sound of insects and birds.

Even if the core area that was supposed to be a dead place is now bustling with business, it's strange enough. But in the front courtyard of the school, which is full of vegetation and vitality, there is not even a single bird, beast, or insect, which makes people feel even more strange and abnormal.

It's just that I came here all the way, except for the sound of fighting with countless enemies, there is indeed no other movement on this disaster area. It was probably because he was already used to the dead silence that even Maca didn't notice it right away.

"There is life everywhere, but there is a sense of death everywhere..." Maca, who interrupted the previous topic a little, murmured at this time, and then turned to continue, "Anyway, I have a proposal to let Me... um, Harry and I! Let's go to the castle to take a closer look at the situation."

Maybe he just wanted to explore alone at first, but after considering what most people think, he still brought Harry along with him.

After saying this, Maca turned to look at Sarah next to her, and stretched out her hand to her:

"Give it to me! You wait here, and prepare to contact the Hogsmeade village station as the case may be. If you can't get in touch here, let Miss Geoffine **** you out to try until Hermione and Luna are successfully notified. "

"it is good."

Sarah obediently handed over the broken doll that had been in her hand, and nodded lightly. Although Safina on the side did not speak, but judging from her posture, she obviously acquiesced to Maca's assignment to herself.

In the end, it was Harry who, after thinking for a while, raised the sword in his hand slightly, and silently responded to the action proposal for this first probe.
