Hogwarts: Magical Elegy

Chapter 346 Changes in War

english channel

On the rough sea surface, the wind howled and the rain poured down.

Big raindrops fell in an extremely arrogant manner.

Then he was swallowed by the raging waves...

The rainwater just merged into the sea without leaving any trace.

Thunderclap——Thunder bang————

Deafening thunder sounded one after another.

Continuous streaks of lightning burst into instant fireworks between the sea of ​​clouds.

They look like trees full of branches. They also look like rivers with hundreds of branches.

The bottom end is connected to the sea level, and the thin branches penetrate into the clouds.

These lightning bolts are different from rain.

The rainwater was swept into the sea, showing no waves.

But these lightning bolts fell into the sea.

It's like a huge bomb.

It set off a towering water column that eclipsed the waves in front of it.

It is conceivable that if these lightnings fall on land, buildings, especially fortifications.

What destructive effects will it cause?

Snap——

It seemed like there was a sound of the air exploding.

But in this storm, it is the same as the raindrops melting into the sea water as written above.

Can't make any waves.

What's more, the lightning and thunder in the sky here are continuous and deafening.

Thanks to the near-constant lightning.

The flashing light is like a stage flashlight, lighting up this invisible world.

In a slide-like screen.

A black shadow quietly appeared under the often flickering sky.

Look closer.

It was a young man wearing a torn wizard robe and riding a black broom.

At this time, he did not have the vigor and vitality of a young man.

Instead, he looks like a migrant worker who works overtime for several days.

His face was haggard, and his clothes and hair clung to his body, like a drowned rat.

Let the cold rain hit his face randomly.

As a wizard, it is also an Auror profession that only the best adult wizards can work.

In the face of this kind of weather, you can maintain a decent appearance by just waving your hands.

After all, drainage spells and drying spells are things that low-level wizards can master.

But he didn't.

Maybe I don't dare, maybe I can't.

He suppressed his aura tightly, and used all his strength that he had never tried to lock the magic wave connected with the broomstick from leaking out.

In short, he was flying in the sky with the help of magic.

Try to reduce the presence of magic.

crackling——

Lightning seemed to pass not far above his head.

Maybe it's the remaining electricity, maybe it's the water vapor whistling under your feet.

A creepy feeling surged into the wizard's heart.

No, we can’t lower the altitude anymore...

Monday, yes, the wizard calls himself Monday.

Because in the unbreakable oath he promised to that adult.

He needs to abandon his past and move on with a new identity.

That was the adult I met on Monday, so I...

Since the previous name has been discarded, how can calling oneself be Monday be considered rash?

Anyway, your work cannot be seen in the light...

It can be said that he was ordered to do so at a critical moment.

Pictures from the past suddenly appeared in my mind.

Then a flash of lightning awoke his wandering spirit.

It seems that I am almost reaching my limit.

After all, he only escaped from the siege after a fierce battle...

On the sea, even during the day, in unfamiliar waters, facing the vast sea and the endless sky, you will be confused about where you are.

Not to mention being in the dark.

There are dense power grids in the sky. With my level of magic, fighting against nature is tantamount to seeking death.

And below, because the sea swallowed up all the light.

I can only occasionally detect the position of the sea surface with the help of reflections.

As for the huge waves crashing in the dark.

You are powerless yourself.

If the flight altitude is too low, a huge wave will sweep you into the sea.

That was really a prayer for Merlin to make him lose consciousness quickly.

Probably he was thinking of Merlin in his heart.

On Monday, I suddenly caught a glimpse of an island in the distance.

Is it really an island?

I felt a little dazed on Monday.

It is said that when a person is dying, he will see the thing he longed for most before death.

On Monday, I touched my face and wiped the rain off my face.

At this moment, a bolt of lightning fell on the top of the island, cutting off part of the island's height.

Although the rain has taken over his face, a smile has appeared on the face that was filled with death before.

Really an island!

What a blessing!

Monday turned the broom around without hesitation and sped towards the island.

I need time to rest and a place to sort out the messy magic power in my body.

Besides, it had only been 4 hours since I escaped.

In other words, four hours ago, this place had not been lost.

At that time, I could use Apparition, but no, I could no longer use Apparition.

He can only use the door key to return to the place arranged by the adult...

The risk of using Apparition continuously before has left me with scars all over my body, even after so long.

He could feel his left leg trying to return to its previous position.

puff--

There was an air leaking sound as a heavy object sank into the sphere.

That's because Monday worked its magic and turned hard rock into squishy rubber.

In addition, he has other means of his own.

In short, he landed safely on this small island where every inch of land in his eyes was valuable.

Phew - Monday struggled to get up.

He actually wanted to have a big dream, even in the storm with lightning and thunder.

"Guard safely, protect everyone..."

Set up protective magic so that the rain will not fall on you.

On Monday, I touched the rainwater on my face, and my vision became completely clear.

Monday gritted his teeth and cast a waking magic on himself, but the price was that after the magic failed, he would definitely fall into a deep sleep.

But now, he can't.

After doing all this, Monday raised his hand without the wand.

Look at the skeleton, it's a woman's hand.

"Uh-huh——"

The man looked at this hand that did not belong to him, but was attached to his arm, and it was not a hand that he could control.

Try your best to get it to open.

The hand did slowly open, but there was severe pain throughout the process.

The man groaned the whole time.

Although, it's okay for him to yell, Storm will take care of everything for him.

But the man's self-esteem and sense of mission forced him to grit his teeth and persevere.

Finally, the hand spread out.

It also revealed what this hand was holding tightly.

It is a watch, golden yellow, with a metal case.

It seems that apart from not moving and having only one pointer, there is no big problem.

Note that this is what it looks like.

The biggest problem with this watch is that it is embedded in the palm of this woman's hand.

The back of the watch and most of the side shells are closely integrated with flesh and blood.

"Goddess of luck has indeed always favored me!"

Under his own will, he spread his hands completely.

Only then did Zhou Zhou scream to the sky, venting his pent-up pain, and finally fell heavily backwards to the ground.

I don’t know how much time passed during the storm.

But never more than an hour.

Monday got up from the ground.

He regained some energy in front of him, and the magic power that was almost out of control was able to obey his orders again.

He raised his hand and turned the pointer on the dial in his palm.

One lap, two laps...

"Remember! Don't exceed seven laps. Even if you exceed it, it will be in vain..."

The adult's words lingered in my ears.

Monday licked his pale lips.

He understood that one circle meant going back one hour, so seven circles meant seven hours.

If you turn it a few more times, there won't be any problems with this watch.

It's just seven hours at most.

One, two, three...seven!

Turned around seven times carefully.

Monday loosened his fingers and about seven breaths passed.

The pointer that moves counterclockwise quickly rotates clockwise.

A sharp pain surged into my heart.

The severed hand drained a large amount of magic power from him.

I haven't waited for Monday's reaction.

It's all over again.

Huchi - Huchi -

A gust of sea breeze blew.

The spirits were lifted again on Monday.

Can't you even maintain basic magic?

No! I came seven hours ago!

Because, in the sky at that time, you could still see a few stars through the clouds!

I realized it on Monday.

He gritted his teeth with all his last strength and insisted on waving the wand.

Snap——

Sure enough, seven hours ago, the magic network was intact.

In addition, the watch in my hand is a different kind of door key.

You only need to activate it yourself to take yourself to a secret place.

This time, there was no sharp pain all over my body when traveling through time.

Instead, it’s the familiar rotational stretch.

Vaguely, he seemed to have arrived in a hall full of clocks.

Several wizards in black robes seemed very surprised to see him.

But in the blink of an eye, they were coming towards me.

It's a pity that I can't hold on anymore...

Darkness flooded Monday's vision————

—————————

"You! It's you! Don't be stunned! Come with me!"

As an excellent Auror.

Why do you fall asleep while on duty outside?

On Monday, he thought about it and realized that he had been fighting at high intensity for three consecutive days, relying solely on the sobriety potion to keep his eyes open.

Huh?

Why do I just follow someone after being greeted?

Oh, yes, this is my captain, that’s okay...

Monday replied loudly, and then followed the footsteps of the captain in front with sonorous and powerful steps.

By the way, I had just been on duty, why did the captain ask me to meet a woman?

Huh? How do I know I’m going to meet a woman?

Monday felt a little strange.

What's wrong with me now?

This is a floating island.

The island is dotted with various magnificent buildings filled with alchemical devices and towering antennas.

Because the magic power on the island fluctuates very frequently.

Wizards basically hide inside the island.

The tubular passages here extend in all directions, and there are no maps or acquaintances to guide you.

It's hard not to get lost here.

The captain leads the way.

Along the way, I met many Aurors and said hello to the captain.

As for Monday, because he was wearing a wizard robe for a secret mission, no one would take the initiative to say hello to him.

So, I thought about it peacefully on Monday.

But in his opinion, it only happened in a moment!

The captain's voice came from the front.

"Sir, I brought Monday!"

Me? Monday?! Did you admit the wrong person? Wait, my name is Monday?!!!

Huh? Why?! Huh? Why am I here?!

Monday's brain was a little confused, and he didn't understand what was wrong with him.

"You go out first!"

The adult in the captain's mouth suddenly spoke.

Her voice was hoarse, like sandpaper being rubbed against a wooden board.

"You...I..."

Although he regained consciousness on Monday, he was still confused.

He always felt that he should know the woman in front of him.

But he couldn't pronounce her name.

"You don't need to know my name. Now you follow me to complete a task!"

"This mission is very dangerous! But it has to be carried out!"

"Otherwise, our stronghold will be destroyed! What will be the consequences! Don't I need to tell you?"

Monday became clear in silence.

Although part of him was wondering in his heart, how could a witch with such a hot body, generous body and wealth have such a voice?

But most of his mind already understood what kind of mission he was going to perform!

This place is a magic network node on the border.

Although it is like a secret realm, it does not appear in the real world.

However, now listening to the tone of the woman in front of me, this has been exposed.

It is only a matter of time before the spatial coordinates are found.

Moreover, as far as I know, it is difficult for them to have reinforcements.

In other words, if this mission fails.

The node here will be lost.

Then the coverage of the Magic Network from the British Ministry of Magic will disappear.

It's like the navigation lost its satellite.

Whether it is apparation or some war magic, the guidance method will be lost.

In short, they will lose another piece of land! Their magic network will be even more damaged!

On Monday, suppress all distracting thoughts in your mind and perform Occlumency.

Follow the woman on her mission.

All goes well ahead.

It's just that women always make themselves stand still and don't move from time to time.

The woman who disappears in front of her always appears from anywhere around her.

But no matter what, I was sure that her magic fluctuations had not changed, and the secret code that communicated with me had not changed.

Don’t ask yourself more questions!

In the front, during the stop-and-go process, the two eliminated three spies who had broken into this place.

Just when the woman told herself not to move again.

An accident happened.

A woman dressed normally and a woman dressed more generously appeared in front of him.

The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, were actually in the blind spot of each other's sight.

But in Monday's eyes.

That’s a scary thing!

because!

Both of their codes are correct!

Then, there should be a scene between the real and fake Monkey King.

I just don’t know whether I want to be a group of gods or a Buddha on Monday...

However, accidents always happen.

The first one to appear was the fully clothed witch. After all, she was not injured and was moving normally.

But just when the fully clothed witch came to Monday, the seriously injured witch saw this scene.

Through the mask, Monday could feel the shocked and horrified expression of the witch.

"how?"

The fully clothed witch saw that Monday looked strange, so she quickly turned around.

I found a figure similar to myself disappearing around the corner of the pipe.

"Chase! She is fake!"

Monday hesitated for a moment and then followed the pace of the witch.

Maybe the spy the witch was chasing had stolen her hair and used Polyjuice Potion to gain her trust!

At this time, Monday didn't have much thinking ability at all. For example, the secret code between them could not be copied by Polyjuice Potion.

Polyjuice Potion can only make a person look like another person, but it cannot gain another person's memories!

Finally, Monday alone blocked the ragged witch.

In other words, it was the witch who took the initiative to see him.

Monday confirmed that the witch's code was correct. He did not attack immediately, but wanted to hear what was going on.

"It's the time turner! There's something wrong with the time turner! It can only go back seven hours at most!"

The witch panted, her voice not so hoarse and harsh due to lack of breath.

He knew it on Monday, but he didn't ask any more questions.

Because, his thinking is getting more and more drowsy.

Suddenly, a sharp pain woke him up.

Before he could do anything.

The already extremely weak witch also cut off her arm.

"This is the time turner! Put it on! Make an unbreakable oath..."

"Listen! You must live! You must get out of here at all costs! When you feel safe, activate the door key in your hand! You will reach a safe place!"

"You must pass these words to my team members!"

"The time turner has changed! It can only allow you to travel back to seven hours at most!"

"After traveling through time, you can only move around in the places where you have been! The specific scope is unknown!"

"Inform the Minister of Magic immediately! Our plan has failed completely! Prepare for all-out war!"

…

All that was left was that the witch drank a bottle of bubbling green potion.

In the blink of an eye, a living person turns into a puddle of water.

Then, Monday was in a daze, and he saw the floating island being penetrated.

It was a Kirov airship with a swastika painted on its exterior.

It's just that it wasn't a big cucumber bomb that was dropped, but a powerful beam of light that made all the wizards despair.

In the blink of an eye, Monday was fighting two wizards above the sea.

Until he plunged into the lightning zone that blocked the waters of the floating island.

Only then did he get rid of the enemy with the help of natural danger.

…

"Hey! His dream is coming to an end! I don't think there's a problem with his identity!"

"agree!"

"It's indeed the eldest sister's secret code, but it's a pity that she..."

A burst of noise rang in Monday's ears.

He barely opened his eyes.

I saw several wizards dressed similarly to myself sighing with emotion.

It turns out that I was so tired that I had a dream!

That's what I was thinking on Monday.

It wasn't until he was talking to everyone that he realized that he had been struck by the 'gentle' Legilimency.

It's not a good feeling to be led into a nightmare!

However, when everyone apologized to him and explained the reasons, he was relieved.

"You! What on earth do you do?"

Now Monday, he has replaced the woman and become part of the team.

However, he is not the captain, but is equivalent to a new rookie.

Now that you have joined, you must listen to the responsibilities of this team!

"It's not you! It's us! It's our duty!"

This is a strong wizard. As a wizard with an ordinary physique, Monday feels that he is twice his size.

The big guy explained in a loud voice!

"We have many tasks. As long as we can maintain or help the battlefield, we will do it."

"The task that the eldest sister is doing is to guard Sky Island! When Sky Island was discovered, use the time converter to go back to one day before Sky Island was discovered."

"In this way, she can activate the space transfer magic that takes a day to activate at the moment of discovery!"

"Thus enabling Sky Island to avoid enemy attacks."

"But it can't be done now! We must remind the Ministry of Magic in time! The war can only be fought head-on! Our team has been helping them get some breathing time for more than a month!"

…

"Jay...no! Captain!"

Just when the big guy was explaining his doubts about Monday.

A wizard who left came to the big man with an ugly expression.

He originally wanted to call the big guy by his code name! However, now he had to convey one thing tactfully.

Under the unbelievable gaze of the big man, he sighed, nodded with difficulty and said.

"It's too late...their lives...are all extinguished..."

"Doesn't that mean there are only seven of us with time turners?!"

"Captain! I hope there are only these seven in this world!"

Hearing this... the big man immediately made a helpless prayer. "Please protect Merlin! They all destroyed the time turner before they died!"

Otherwise... the big guy can no longer imagine the terrible consequences!
