Chapter 2201 the Cold Light Behind Hermione
"Boom—"
Explosions were still ringing out one after another from outside, and the protective barrier covering the stronghold was like an overturned salad bowl, which was shaking frequently with the explosion and sprinkled a little bit of silver light.
Many wizards and wizards in the stronghold were hurrying to and fro. Although they were anxious, they didn't show much fear on their faces, and they were still doing what they should do in an orderly manner.
They all stepped into this land of disaster with their own will. It can be said that everyone has already made the psychological preparation to die in struggle and resistance.
It must be said that they are the real warriors in the European magic world. Even though they are relatively weak, none of them are willing to back down.
Because they know in their hearts that when the disaster is out of hand, someone has to stand up.
"what?"
Suddenly, one of the witches, waving a wand and carrying a box of emergency potions, hurried past in front of the Burrow, paused and raised her head subconsciously.
After being slightly taken aback, she couldn't help but looked up at the sky and said to herself in surprise:
"The barrier... seems to be starting to stabilize again?"
Because just now, Hermione has issued the latest instructions. According to the plan, once this second protective barrier is broken, Sarah will reopen her alchemy barrier to block the enemy group. At the same time, Safina, Harry, Mr. Blois, and even Hermione herself will also go all out to meet the incoming enemies and start the retreat process completely.
It is said that Hermione still has some follow-up measures after that, but that has nothing to do with volunteers like them, so I didn't inform them in detail.
However, no matter what Hermione left behind, once this barrier is broken, it will definitely mean that the "Nail Project" has failed. This is undesirable for all those who hope to successfully resist the disaster.
Therefore, when the witch found that the barrier protecting the stronghold had stabilized under the high-intensity attack of the zombie army, she even had an excited smile on her face.
It's just that if you are happy, what you should do will not change until the new instructions come down. The witch just paused, and soon continued to run forward with the box, but the pace seemed to be much lighter.
And not long after she left the Burrow door, at the bottom of the stairs in the living room of the Burrow, the trap door suddenly moved, and then was suddenly pushed open by a hand from inside.
"Patter.
"
The trapdoor flipped over and leaned against the back of the stairs. Immediately afterwards, two figures hurriedly crawled out from below, one after the other.
Obviously, this was Ginny and Hannah who were in charge of maintaining the core of the array in the basement. Right now, it can be seen that the two people who just came up from below are flushed and out of breath, with sweat profuse on their foreheads, and even the ends of their hair are stuck to their cheeks with sweat.
At this moment, the protective barrier has regained its stability, which is naturally due to the two of them. It's just that although the temporary change of formation was successful, they were exhausted for a while.
"Huh... the air above is really much fresher..."
Hannah supported her knees and took two deep breaths, and couldn't help but sigh. But at this moment, she heard Ginny on the side suddenly say:
"What about Ron? Isn't it his job to stay in the living room and guard the basement entrance? What about the others?"
Upon hearing this, Hannah also straightened up and raised her head, and followed Ginny who was looking left and right and took two steps.
"Could it be that there are other tasks? You know, something unexpected happened outside, otherwise we don't need to enable the record—"
"No!" Ginny shook her head resolutely, "You also know how important the core of this rune pattern is... In fact, Hermione originally planned to let Harry stay here if it was not estimated that the external combat power might not be enough Defensive. What's more, Ron, he..."
Although some words are obviously not good to say so, but Ron's lack of combat ability is a fact after all. Even if more people are needed outside to help right now, wouldn't it be necessary to hand over Ron?
Ginny shook her head again, and swallowed what might be unfair to Ron - in fact, in the final analysis, as a younger sister, Ginny was actually more worried at this time.
"...hope he's okay."
After a quick search in the living room, they found that Ron was indeed not there, so Ginny and Hannah ran out of the Burrow in a hurry and went straight to the east tower.
...
If it really came to the point where it was necessary to activate the record and temporarily change the formation, Hannah and Ginny would definitely not be able to stay in the basement anymore.
Because of the instability of the doubling of the magic power conversion, problems may occur at the core of the formation at any time, and it is very likely that it will crash at this time. Although the core is placed in the basement, even if the core part collapses, the impact on the ground will be minimized, but staying in the basement is still very dangerous.
So Hermione and Ginny agreed that after they came out, they could go to the East Tower with Ron, who was guarding in the living room, to meet her.
But Hermione didn't expect that when the rune barrier was shaken by the self-detonation bombardment of the living corpses, Ron was the only one who hurried over here.
"H...H...Hermione..."
Ron seemed to have run all the way from the Burrow, and when he appeared in front of Hermione, he seemed almost paralyzed from exhaustion. He was panting heavily while leaning on the wall post, calling Hermione intermittently.
"Ron?" Hermione looked at his half-dead appearance, then glanced behind him, and then frowned, "Why are you alone? Where are Ginny and Hannah?"
"Ginny...and...Hannah...huh..." Ron gasped heavily, unable to speak clearly, "They—"
"Hey... Anyway, you should catch your breath first."
Although he was worried about the situation of Ginny and Hannah, the stronghold was under intense attack right now, and it was not just one or two people who were in danger. Seeing someone coming to report the battle situation in other directions, Hermione could only wave her hand at Ron, and then hurriedly turned around to continue giving orders.
"Since Miss Grofeyn has left the southern defense line, there will definitely be a more serious blow... let the south tower open all the gravity traps I set up, how long can it last..."
Hermione was explaining the countermeasures very quickly, and asked the messenger to deliver the notice immediately, but at the next moment, she heard a guard standing by the wall suddenly shouted:
"Miss Granger, be careful—"
In fact, at the same time that the guard shouted, Hermione caught a glimpse of a cold silver light out of the corner of her eyes. But when she turned around following the cold light, she found that the source of it was a silver dagger held upside down in Ron's hand.
At that moment, Ron's eyes turned into two deep blacks.
