Chapter 2200 Temporary Change of Formation
"The demon appeared earlier than expected."
Sarah had just mentioned this sentence to Luna in the attic, and now she was uttering it from Hermione who was standing on the top of the East Tower.
Clearly, this is not good news.
"It's too late...the magic power at the core of the formation is not enough, if you suffer a strong attack now..."
Hermione looked up at the oppressive vortex in the air, her hands clenched tightly into fists, and her arms even trembled slightly due to excessive force.
However, after mumbling a few words to herself, she still took a deep breath, turned her head and calmly exhorted the two wizards who followed:
"Immediately remind everyone in the stronghold - next, we must prepare for the evacuation of the stronghold at all times, and everything is still carried out in an orderly manner according to the plan!"
"okay, got it."
The two wizards immediately realized the seriousness of the situation, but Hermione had also inherited Makanavan's habit of calculating retreats in advance, and had already made plans to retreat before. After all, no matter how much they were unwilling to give up here, human life was more important in the end, and when the time came when they had to give up, probably the dead Percy would not hope that so many more people would be "buried" with him.
There are really enough dead people.
Seeing the two wizards in charge of communication leave from the tower platform, Hermione looked up at the sky again. Obviously, even though standing under this vortex is extremely stressful, she would rather just keep staring at it. If she doesn't watch, she will feel even more uneasy.
At the same time, in the center of the vortex above the head, the pitch-black figure has slowly left the cloud layer, as if supported by an invisible force, it is still slowly descending in mid-air at the original speed Come.
By now, the guy's appearance can actually be seen in its entirety - about the same height as ordinary people, a slightly lean but still muscular body, and dark skin with a texture like crocodile skin There are slight edges and corners on the glossy, bald head, and there is no gender characteristic on the body.
This is the appearance of the demon "arrogant", except for the blackness as deep as night, it has almost nothing in common with the other demons that Hermione has seen before. But generally speaking, people who have seen demons can realize at first sight that they are indeed of the same kind!
Delphi's cooling regular light beams are constantly washing over its body, and for a while, the light is overflowing and the frost is flying across.
The effect is not satisfactory.
Just as Hermione frowned gradually, holding the wand in her hand and staring directly at the figure slowly descending from the sky. Suddenly, the demon's eyes, which had been slightly closed from the beginning, opened suddenly.
Oh no... I'm afraid it can't be called "double eyes" anymore, because there are actually two deep holes hidden behind those eyelids.
However, the moment the other party opened their eyelids, Hermione...and even everyone inside and outside the stronghold felt an illusion as if they were being stared at.
Just when the big guys froze subconsciously, they saw the "arrogance" floating in mid-air raised his chin slightly and pointed his finger lightly.
In an instant, the army of living corpses who had stopped moving around the stronghold actually ignited their souls one by one, bursting out into raging black flames. Then on the next day, they flocked frantically towards the silver barrier protecting the stronghold.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..."
One, two, three... A large number of living corpses crashed into the barrier one after another, and then decisively threw themselves on the barrier and exploded. Soon, the protective barrier trembled violently.
"Go back to defend! Don't worry about that high-level zombie—go back to defend!" Delphi, who was still continuing the rule magic, couldn't help shouting when he saw this.
...
When the second protective barrier of the stronghold was attacked by the living corpses, although Hermione and Delphine's expressions were not good, the most uncomfortable ones were Hannah and Ginny in the basement of the Burrow. .
In fact, because the formation is designed to continuously absorb natural magic power from the surrounding space and convert it into active magic power available to the formation, only in this way can the magic barrier be maintained effectively and permanently. However, it is expected that the army of living corpses... or the demon "arrogance" behind them will inevitably launch a powerful offensive in the later stage, and it is definitely not enough to simply take it as you like.
For this reason, Hermione also designed a part of the array to store magic power, so as to reserve room for high-intensity attacks.
However, just because of the attack of the high-level living corpse that suddenly appeared before, the timing of "Arrogance"'s appearance was greatly advanced!
"boom--"
In the basement, the core part of the pattern array is experiencing bursts of magical vibrations, and the brilliance released by the various symbols and lines in the pattern is also beginning to flicker.
In an instant, the expressions of Ginny and Hannah who were waiting on both sides changed drastically.
"So fast...why? With Miss Grofeyn and the others here, why did the high-intensity attack come so quickly—" Ginny murmured nervously, "Harry...Harry should be... all right ?”
According to the plan, Harry and the others were responsible for dealing with the first few waves of attacks with their strong personal strength outside the stronghold, in order to reduce the pressure on the protective barrier as much as possible before storing enough magic power.
And now, since the barrier suddenly began to be attacked to such an extent, Ginny couldn't help but wonder if Harry and the others were injured, or even...
Ginny didn't think about it any further, because she knew that this was no longer the time to be distracted.
"Hannah, change formation!"
"it is good!"
Both of them are people who have studied new ancient magic literature with Maca, and both of them have participated in the whole process of setting up the formation. It is for this reason that Hermione will let them be responsible for the important core of the formation here. task.
And the most difficult of these "important tasks" is to deal with such emergencies-temporary reorganization.
Hermione designed two sets of runes for absorbing and converting magic power, but for the sake of stability, only one of them was activated during normal operation.
It is good to be able to double the storage of magic power, but if the self collapses due to instability, then the gain outweighs the loss.
So Hermione used it as a contingency record.
Because of the accumulation of magic power in the basement, the wizard would have felt doubled pressure, and coupled with the need to temporarily add a magic power transmission line when the formation was running, beads of sweat soon oozed from the foreheads of Ginny and Hannah. .
But the hands of the two who drew the lines of the formation diagram did not dare to tremble in the slightest.
