Chapter 1175 Pack and Take Away
Hermione and the others used the Apparition spell to leave the school.
Until now, even Ron has been able to barely move himself from one place to another, so apart from Ginny in the first year, Hermione and Luna naturally are not to be mentioned.
Of course, since Ron is still far from mastering the relationship, in order to prevent him from losing an arm or something when he is manifested in London, he was taken away through the entourage just like Ginny.
However, when the eyes of the four people suddenly lit up and found that the feeling of down-to-earth had returned, the surrounding scene made them suddenly startled.
"This is... where is this?"
Ginny looked around in a daze, only to realize that the place where they were now should have been a lavender field.
As you can see, the clumps of grass stalks at our feet are lush and green, dotted with some small indigo flower clusters. Presumably, when the lavender flowering period arrives after June, the place will be completely occupied by bright purple, which must be very beautiful at first glance.
But, why do you say that this place "should have been" a lavender field?
Because at this moment, Ginny and the others saw that half of this flower field was still verdant and verdant with lavender plants, but the other side was already shrouded in that unknown gray mist.
Just looking up a little, you can see that the smog from the city of London is extremely thick, standing in front of everyone like an impenetrable gray barrier, allowing everyone to connect to the tall buildings in the city of London. They are all out of sight.
And it is also at this moment that the "Wall of Mist" is actually still spreading outwards little by little.
It's just that because it has already covered too much area, the diffusion of the fog has become too slow, so that it is difficult for people to detect that it is still moving.
"This... should be the Banstead area in the southern suburbs of London..." Hermione, who is most familiar with London, glanced around, "I remember there is a big lavender farm here."
"Is there something wrong with the Apparition Charm?" Ron couldn't help but asked a little worriedly, "Oh, okay! I'm just saying... You know, I haven't been able to use it well."
"Obviously it's not the spell that made a mistake," Hermione shook her head. "Even if the Apparation spell made a mistake, we wouldn't make a mistake together! So... then there should be a problem with the space itself..."
she was talking,
Suddenly, he glanced in the direction of the dense fog in the direction of downtown London, and said solemnly:
"Therefore, I don't think it needs to be said anymore. It must be this strange gray fog that repells us who try to manifest directly in it!"
"Sure enough, it was Hai Erbo who did it?" Ron took a deep breath, "He actually covered the whole city with this kind of mist... I should say that he deserves to be a person who can pass on his name to this day." A dark wizard?"
"How powerful he is is not what we should care about now," Hermione pursed her lips and said, "Since the story about him has long been unknown, it is meaningless for us to think about it. Therefore, we What should be considered now is how to find your family members as soon as possible!"
"Oh, yes!"
Hermione's voice fell slightly, and Ron and Ginny looked at each other, and they both saw the worry in each other's eyes.
"Let's go!"
In the half of the lavender field without fog, Hermione thought for a while, and quickly said:
"Let's go to Diagon Alley first—although Percy may not be there anymore, as long as he has been, we should be able to find out about his whereabouts."
"Well," Ron nodded, walked forward eagerly with his legs open, and continued, "at least this fog doesn't seem to harm people, after all, Percy also mentioned in the letter that Dad is in London. I searched for a time all night, but I returned home safe and sound the next morning."
"Wait! It's better to be careful!"
Hermione grabbed his collar by the back of his collar, causing him to take two steps back quickly, clutching his neck and coughing for a while.
"I have some anti-virus masks used in herbal medicine class here. Although they may not be effective, they are better than no protection at all!"
Luna on the side watched her take out a whole stack of bowl-shaped masks from her bag and began to distribute them to everyone. She reached out to take a pair and asked curiously:
"Hermione, where did you buy your satchel? It's like the leather pockets hanging around Maca's waist. It looks like it has everything in it?"
"I tried to do it when I was practicing the Untraceable Stretching Charm."
After Hermione finished distributing the masks, she stuffed the rest back into her bag, then immediately waved her hands and said:
"Don't compare my toy bag with Maca's. Who knows how many times he has folded stretching spells in those pockets?"
While answering Luna's question casually, everyone had already put on their masks, and Hermione put one on herself as well.
"Okay! Then... let's go to Diagon Alley first!"
...
After entering the area shrouded in fog, Hermione discovered that the gray mist was much denser than she had imagined.
Walking in it, just a little farther away, even the ground can't be seen, as if the few of us are in a strange dream.
But the good thing is that during the journey towards downtown London, everyone did not notice that the density of the fog had increased. It seemed that the gray fog had no distinction between the center and the edge.
To be honest, this made them all a little relieved—they thought that the further they walked into the city, the thicker the fog would become! After all, if the fog were thicker, wouldn't it be impossible to see anything in the end?
However, Luna was not included among those who felt lucky.
"I don't like the fog!"
She twisted her mouth inside the mask, shrunk her neck a little uncomfortably.
Hearing this, Ron frowned and waved his arms, looked at the unmoved fog and said:
"Hi! How many people will like it?"
Of course Ron was right. Besides Hai Erbo and his like, who else would like this strange fog that seriously affected people's normal life?
However, what Luna wanted to express at this time was not what he meant.
In fact, this fog of London has at least one other effect that ordinary wizards cannot feel-it will disturb the fluctuation of magic power.
Since the day when Luna was able to sense the magic power, after such a long run-in, she has actually adapted to the feeling of being in the magic power. But now in the mist, the original natural magic power fluctuations suddenly lost their regularity, which made Luna feel very uncomfortable.
Thinking about it is also true, for ordinary people, if their normal vision suddenly becomes chaotic. Even if it is not to the extent that it affects normal vision, I am afraid few people will feel very comfortable.
Fortunately, Luna's ability to adapt may be her greatest strength. Although she only feels uncomfortable, it doesn't make her feel unbearable.
The only pity is that her magic power sensing ability, which has become increasingly sharp, is obviously greatly reduced in this fog.
Otherwise, she will definitely let everyone avoid a lot of troubles in advance in this fog today...
Just as the few of them were walking along the road in the thick fog, Hermione, who seemed to have been thinking about something since she came in, turned her head abruptly.
"Ron," she kept asking, "I remember that there are many entrances to the Ministry of Magic in London, and there should be ones around here—did your father mention the guest entrance in Banstead?"
"Uh, I really don't know about that," Ron shook his head hurriedly, "I think you know too, when dad comes home from get off work, all he has in his head is the Muggle items he collected , how can you even think about work? What, you plan to go to the city center from the Ministry of Magic?"
"Anyway, it's definitely impossible to just walk like this. It's at least a dozen miles from here to the Leaky Cauldron!" Hermione thought as she said, "And...although I have a broomstick with me, it's a pity that I only have one , It’s not enough for the four of us!”
Obviously, since they didn't expect such a big deviation in apparition, they were almost unprepared before they set off. Even if Hermione had a broom, it was just a habit she had with Luna for competition practice.
"How about... go back and get it first?"
Even though Ginny was anxious, it was already a fact that something went wrong. In order to strive to reach Diagon Alley earlier, before going too far in the fog, it seems that it is the best choice to go back to school.
But when Hermione heard it, she suddenly shook her head.
"No, I have another way to get to the city faster! It's just this way... I think you may have to suffer a little—"
"What way?" Ron immediately said, "You just say - as long as I can find Percy and the others sooner, I will suffer anything!"
"Yes!" Ginny also nodded quickly.
Hermione looked at Luna again, then patted the satchel on her waist, and motioned to everyone.
"Look, this bag of mine is sealed with a drawstring, and its opening can actually be stretched very wide..." she said, "With the space that has been cast with the No Trace Stretching Charm, I don't think it's okay to put you all in it." The problem...well, it may be a little crowded, and it has never been decorated inside, so there must be no way for people to stand."
"Oh……"
When Ron heard this, he blinked his eyes—he never dreamed that he would be taken away by Hermione one day!
On the contrary, after Luna heard it, she was a little bit depressed, her eyes widened, and she clapped her little hands happily.
"Wow! That sounds like fun!"
"Hmm..." Seeing her excited expression, Hermione felt guilty and didn't know where to go, "Okay! Just be happy..."
