Chapter 2168 Seeing the Big From the Small
It must be said that Luna's method of luring the enemy to delay by herself was actually not successful. She was only alone, and it was obviously impossible to hold back the long line of living corpses for a long time.
But the good thing is that Luna's original goal was achieved - during the time when she led the living corpses to chase north, the Burrow had already made sufficient preparations for the defense of the stronghold and even the counterattack. Prepare.
As for Luna... When she found that the living corpses controlled by the demon finally gave up chasing her and turned around and rushed westward again, she, who was planning to go back to Hermione as soon as possible, happened to meet Safina.
"...I found that the queue of living corpses was diverted to the north. I thought it was Blois coming 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 hearing Safina's story about her own mouth, Luna finally understood why the other party was so tired.
The answer is simple. During this period of time, Safina has been trying to find the location of the "leader" from the long team of living corpses. Maybe it's a demon, maybe a high-level zombie, maybe even something else, but it's actually not that important to her.
What she hopes to do is to find the leader who made this group of living corpses organized as much as possible. And it would be even better if the leader could be found out and dealt with before they attacked the Burrow stronghold's defenses!
However...it's a pity that no matter how hard she looked, she couldn't find it.
But to be honest, Safina returned empty-handed this time, and she was not to blame. Because even Luna, who can clearly detect the existence of the devil, has not really found it so far!
If you want to blame, you can only blame the demon who led the group of living corpses, because it is really good at hiding—it is clearly in the team, but no one seems to be able to find it.
"Actually, I just came back. Seeing that the living corpses might be going to the Burrow, I wanted to drag them first." Luna said to her while riding a broomstick and flying west with Safina, "By the way, Safina, I brought your sister Ursula to Bill's side. Although it's actually not very safe there now, after all, there is only one strait away from here, but in fact, it seems Nowhere is absolutely safe."
On the other side, after hearing what Luna said, Safina couldn't help but nodded gratefully.
"Well, thank you anyway, as long as Ursula doesn't stay in conflict or danger completely, that's enough!"
Naturally, Safina still doesn't know about the drastic changes in the federation.
After all, Luna hasn't had time to say it yet. But she already knew about the Beauxbaton corpse incident before.
And when it seems to be full of human selfishness and the threat of disaster everywhere, keeping Ursula in a place that is within reach and relatively safe will definitely make Sarah feel better than putting her in a distance. Fenner felt relieved.
As this calamity continues to fail to calm down day by day, the current situation is quite different from before.
"Miss Lovegood, I think we'll have to hurry up—if the zombies start attacking by the time we get back to the Burrow, we're afraid we won't be able to get into 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 Akimbard 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 though the Burrow was no longer the Weasleys' house, when he saw this house that had deliberately kept most of it as it was, he immediately had a feeling of coming home.
"Ron...although, this is definitely not the time to say these things, but... where is Percy's grave?"
Charlie only sat in the living room with old Akinbad for a while, and couldn't help but dragged his younger brother Ron to the side and asked in a low voice.
Hearing this, Ron couldn't help hesitating for a moment, and then pointed in the direction of the backyard.
"I'm not going to call Ginny... In fact, she hasn't calmed down for a while. It's just because there are so many dangers out there, and we have too many things to do every day, so we put Percy's matter was forcibly suppressed. So...you can go there if you want to see it! It's not far, it's in the stronghold, and you can see it from the backyard..."
In fact, not only Ginny, but Ron himself obviously couldn't let go at all. Therefore, in the end, he did not go with Charlie, but chose to stay in the living room.
And when Charlie and Ron went to the side to talk quietly, the old Aginbad who was sitting on the other side was looking at the two with a thoughtful expression.
Of course he knew about Percy Weasley's death.
In other words, in fact, basically everyone who is qualified to know about this matter already knows about it, and only Mrs. Weasley is still temporarily kept in the dark by everyone.
Of course, there are actually many people who are not qualified or need to know about this matter. For example, Miss Brandt who is sitting across from the coffee table and is quite restless is one of them.
Naturally, she didn't know about Percy's sacrifice, and she didn't want to know, because her own affairs were enough to make her feel devastated.
"Mr. Aginbad, I have to...I have to go and make it clear to Miss Granger...you know, what Madame Maxime wants me to do."
However, after hearing this, old Aginbad couldn't help shaking his head.
Most things are time-sensitive, and the agreement between Ida and Maxim is obviously the same. Up to now, the matter has already been completely over, and probably only Miss Brandt is still worried.
However, considering how much her life was at stake, it was not easy for Akinbad to say anything about her—even if the authenticity of the curse had long been doubted.
"Go as soon as you want to go!" After a short pause, the old Aginbad said, "It's just that the zombie team is coming soon, and Miss Granger probably won't have time—"
After all, Ida couldn't finish listening to his words, she only got the first sentence, then stood up abruptly and ran out from the door. And without someone to talk to, old Aginbad had no choice but to take back the words that followed, and shook his head here.
Everyone has their own things and their own ideas. The performance of this Miss Brandt is actually the true situation of many wizards at present, which makes people worry.
