Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 2168
It must be said that Luna's attempt to entice the enemy to delay by herself was not considered successful.She is just a person, and it is obviously impossible to hold the long line of living corpses for a long time.
But fortunately, Luna's original goal was achieved-during the time she led the living corpse to the north, the Burrow had already done enough for the defense of the stronghold and even the counterattack. ready.
As for Luna... when she found that the living corpses controlled by the devil finally gave up chasing herself and turned to the west again, she was planning to go back to Hermione's side as soon as possible, and she happened to meet Safina.
"...I found out that the corpse queue was diverted to the north. I thought it was Blois who came out again, but I didn't expect it to be Miss Lovegood, you came back from France."
When Luna saw Safina appear from the east, she found that the other party seemed very tired.After listening to Safina's personal statement, Luna understood why the other party was so tired.
The answer is simple. During this time, Safina has been trying to find the "chief" from the long line of corpses.Maybe it was a demon, maybe a high-level living corpse, maybe even something else, but it wasn't that important to her.
All she hoped to do was to find the leader who made this group of living corpses organized as much as possible.And if the leader can be taken out and dealt with before they attack the defense of the Burrow stronghold, then it would be better!
However...it's a pity that she never found it no matter how she looked for it.
But to be honest, Safina's return empty-handed this time, in fact, she is not to blame.Because even Luna, who was able to actively detect the existence of the devil, has not really found it yet!
To blame, you can only blame the demon who led this group of living corpses, because it is so capable of hiding-clearly in the team, but it seems that no one can find it.
"Actually, I just came back. I saw that the living corpses might be going to the Burrow, so I wanted to drag them first." Luna said to her while riding a flying broom and flying west with Safina. "By the way, Safina, I took your sister Ursula to Bill’s side. Although it’s not very safe now, it’s only separated by a strait, but in fact, it seems Nowhere is absolutely safe."
On the other hand, after hearing Luna's words, Safina nodded in gratitude.
"Well, thank you anyway, as long as you don't let Ursula stay in strife or danger, that's enough!"
The upheaval of the federation is naturally unknown to Safina, after all, Luna has not had time to say yet.But she had already learned about the previous Boothbaton corpse incident.
And at a time when everything seems to be full of human selfishness and the threat of disaster, leaving Ursula in a relatively safe place within reach of her is definitely better than putting her far away. Fenner felt relieved.
As this disaster cannot be subdued day by day, the current situation is very different from before.
"Miss Lovegood, I think we have to speed up-if the living corpses have already started attacking when we return to the Burrow, then we may not be able to enter the stronghold."
After saying this to Luna, Safina asked her to put away the broom, and then personally led her to speed up and fly towards the Burrow.
...
When Luna met Safina by chance on the way back, Charlie and Old Akinbad had already arrived at the stronghold with Miss Brandt, and led by Ron back to the burrow in the center of the stronghold.
Leaving aside the two "outsiders" Akinbad and Ida Brandt, for Charlie, this is equivalent to going home.
Even if the current burrow is no longer the Weasley house that used to be, when he saw this house that still deliberately left most of it intact, he immediately felt a sense of going home.
"Ron...Although, this is definitely not the time to say this, but...Where is Percy's graveyard?"
Charlie only sat in the living room with old Akinbad for a while, and couldn't help dragging his brother Ron to the side and asked in a low voice.
Ron couldn't help hesitating for a moment when he heard the words, and then pointed towards the backyard.
"I'm not going to call Ginny... In fact, she hasn't calmed down in her heart during this period of time. It's just because the outside is full of dangers, and we have things we can't finish every day, so Percy’s affairs were forcibly suppressed. So... if you want to see it, go by yourself! Not far away, just inside the stronghold, you can see from the backyard..."
In fact, not only Ginny, but Ron himself obviously couldn't let go.Therefore, he did not go with Charlie in the end, but chose to stay in the living room.
And just as Charlie and Ron went to one side to talk in a low voice, Old Akinbad, who was sitting on the other side, was looking at the two with a little thoughtful expression.
He knew the death of Percy Weasley.
In other words, in fact, everyone who is currently qualified to know about this matter already knows about it, only Mrs. Weasley is still deliberately kept in the dark.
Of course, there are actually many people who are not qualified or need to know about this. For example, Miss Brandt, who is sitting across the coffee table, is a little restless, is one of them.
She naturally didn't know Percy's sacrifice, and didn't want to know, because her own business was enough to make her feel devastated.
"Mr. Akinbad, I have to... I have to go and tell Miss Granger first... You know, what Mrs. Maxim wants me to do."
However, when Old Akinbad heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head.
Most things are time-sensitive, and the agreement between Ida and Maxim is obviously the same.By now, the matter had already passed completely, and probably only Miss Brandt was still uneasy.
It's just that, depending on how much life matters, Akinbad is not good at saying anything about her-even if the truth of the curse has long been doubtful.
"If you want to go, go!" After a short pause, Old Akinbad said, "It's just that the team of corpses is about to arrive, Miss Granger probably has no time--"
After all, Ida couldn't hear what he said, so she got the first sentence, got up and ran out of the door.Without the person who spoke, Old Akinbad had to withdraw the words that followed, and shook his head here.
Everyone has his own things and his own ideas.The performance of this Miss Brandt is actually the true situation of many wizards at present, which can not help but make people worry.
