Chapter 1538 Delphi Who Is Becoming More and More Estranged
"ah!"
Suddenly, Luna, who was sitting on the pedestal of the mercury statue in the center of the square, couldn't help but let out a soft cry, causing Neville, who was guarding not far away, to look back quickly.
"What's wrong?"
"Oh, it's nothing," Luna said, shaking her hands, "The bracelet Maca gave me suddenly became hot, probably... those bad things are coming soon, right?"
Neville couldn't help clenching his wand tightly upon hearing this.
"Is it finally here?"
"Yeah!" Luna stood up while talking, patted the dust on her buttocks and said, "Since Maca gave the signal, it's time to get ready."
Before the words were finished, Neville watched her briskly climbed onto the base, and stretched out her hand to the mercury statue with various postures, which looked like a living creature.
Soon, Luna was slowly wrapped in those bright and soft mercury, and her whole body got into it.
After staying for a while, the originally blurred face of the mercury statue seemed to have the delicate outline of Luna's face.
"Drilling in there...don't you feel out of breath?"
Just as Neville was muttering secretly in his heart, he saw that the statue that became more and more like Luna suddenly raised its arms. Immediately afterwards, two magic shields began to form above the statue, and quickly spread towards the edge of Spiral Town.
...
"Mr. Lupine, the army of living corpses has broken into the downtown area of Canterbury, and they are attacking here quickly!"
"knew."
In the lobby on the ground floor of the new Ministry of Magic, the previous busyness has calmed down, and people from all walks of life are no longer in a hurry. Because up to now, everyone has done what they should do, and even if there are any omissions in the future, they can only be adjusted according to the temporary judgment of Lu Ping and other leaders.
"Convey the news to Minister Shaker immediately! Be ready to activate all protective measures at any time... But don't worry yet, wait for McClain's signal."
"yes!"
After understanding Lupine's meaning, several messenger wizards who were waiting nearby responded at the same time, and then left the hall immediately.
After the people who delivered the news went out, Lu Ping turned back and looked down at the sand table in Spiral Town. At this moment, the layout of the town was already clear at a glance.
Those Kingsley's suppression teams that had withdrawn from the front had already guarded the crossroads in the four directions of Spiral Town together with the support wizards of the Federation. Although there is only one entrance, if even Hai Erbo comes, no one can predict from which direction they will attack.
In addition to the wizard, the wild elves who were fooled by Maca from the island have also been stationed on the edge of the town. They are responsible for the sky above the town.
Of course, before the army of living corpses entered the town, the first thing they needed to overcome was obviously the defense of the two magic shields.
Just as he was thinking about it, Lupine suddenly turned his head again, and happened to see two layers of translucent magic films spreading out in the dark sky. The two shields of different colors overlap each other, exuding a faint brilliance, which is more gorgeous than the aurora at the North and South Poles at first glance.
"Come on! Success or failure depends on tonight..."
While whispering like this, Lupine couldn't help but gradually clenched the wand in his hand.
...
When the army of living corpses attacked, everyone in Helix Town couldn't help but gradually tense up. But there are only two people, but they don't think about how they should protect the town and wipe out the enemies in the future.
One of them, except for Hermione's injury, was Maca who kept calm all the time, even when he was seriously injured and unconscious and couldn't use both arms afterwards,
He also didn't seem to show much wavering at all.
As for the other person, it is probably Maka's unexpected "good daughter" Delphi.
Right now, she is staying in the central square of the town just like Neville...or in other words, staying by Luna's side. Whenever Neville happened to look back to the other side of the Quicksilver statue, he would inevitably see her staring at the statue that became one with Luna in a daze.
Neville didn't know what Delphi was thinking, and...maybe that girl was so beautiful that Neville never dared to talk to her.
But even if he didn't speak, Neville could tell that Delphi seemed to have a lot of thoughts in his heart, and it was difficult to confide in others.
As a person who is not good at words, Neville is very clear that if this state lasts for too long, he will get sick. He himself was a good example before.
"Delphi... er, miss?"
Using a somewhat nondescript address as the beginning of the conversation made Neville himself feel very awkward.
But there was no way around it, because Delphi almost never told others about her surname, at least Neville obviously didn't know it yet.
After all, if she had to choose, she would definitely want others to call herself "Miss McLean", but it was difficult to explain it clearly to others.
Needless to say, in that case, others would definitely misunderstand the relationship between her and Maca.
"Well?"
Hearing Neville's words on the other side, Delphi turned his eyes away from the statue and turned to the other side.
"Mr. Longbottom, what's the matter?"
"Oh, no...it's just that the enemy will arrive outside the town at any time, we'd better be careful and concentrate more."
Neville said so, but then shook his head and said:
"Ah! I'm sorry, I forgot that your strength is much stronger than mine...Maybe for you, my suggestion doesn't have much reference value at all..."
"No, please don't say [UUReading 00kxs] that Mr. Longbottom's strength can be regarded as a leader in the modern magic world! Well, you are right, I was thinking too much just now gone."
Sense of distance!
To be honest, Neville didn't want to have such a deep friendship with the other party, and he also has a girlfriend now, so naturally he wouldn't think about what he had or what he didn't.
Not to mention, a girl like Delphine who looked "high and cold" was the most difficult type for Neville.
But let's not talk about that, at least for Maca's sake, Neville still hopes to make friends with the other party, and it is very likely that they will fight together in the future. He doesn't want to be very difficult to even talk to the other party things.
It's a pity that the repulsion and rejection emanating from Delphi made the distance between the two of them increase rather than decrease after they talked.
"This feeling of alienation... Since when did it become more intense?"
