Chapter 63: The Battle of London (1)

Londoners will never forget this day, when they were hurrying through the streets as usual to get busy with their lives, when a heavy shadow suddenly appeared in the sky.

"Cloudy again?"

"London's Damn Broken Weather......"

A few people complained, and raised their heads nonchalantly, "Ahhh ”

Amid the screams of terror, a group of strangely shaped cyborg humanoid beings jumped from the sky.

They flew low over the city with a kind of flying machine, and the cannons on their arms bombarded pedestrians and high-rise buildings on the side of the road with impunity.

'Boom! A loud explosion drowned out the terrified cries of pedestrians, and the burning flames and broken buildings instantly turned central London into a battlefield.

Everyone was fleeing, and cries and screams filled the whole of London:

"Help!"

"What are these...... Who will save us? ”

The alarm phone at Scotland Yard is almost bursting.

But even the police, when faced with alien forces, are as powerless as ordinary civilians.

Inspector Lestrade sat in his chair with his head crossed, staring at the screen with red eyes, and the devastated shì and wolf bèi fleeing and crying people on the street pierced his heart.

Finally, he couldn't bear it any longer, stood up suddenly, gritted his teeth and gave an order: "Go and call a team of people and go out with me to rescue the citizens." ”

"But, Sir, let's wait for the army to deal with it." The subordinate policewoman Sally Donavan said in surprise.

Inspector Lestrade looked over in silence, "Ma'am, this is not a chat, this is an order. ”

"I see, Sir." Sally scrambled to her feet, her chair making an unpleasant noise from her violent movements.

She pinned the gun to her waist, her expression bewildered and a little frightened, and she pretended to be calm and ready to go out to call someone.

"Agent Donawan." The detective was behind her and stopped her: "This rescue activity is voluntary, and those who don't want to participate can not participate." ”

The upright and gentle detective paused and suddenly said, "I'm sorry to get everyone out of a safe place." However, when people are in danger, the last people they should sit idly by are the police. ”

"You're right, Inspector." Sally Donavan's gaze gradually calmed, "I'll be with you." ”

"Thank you for your trust, Agent Donavan." Inspector Lestrade said gently and firmly, "Remember to wear body armor." ”

At the same time, Mycroft was not idle.

He was fast enough, and after receiving news from Daniel, he urgently contacted the military and asked for troops to be sent to defend London.

But for one, the alien terrorists apparently didn't give him much time. Second, without evidence, the military did not believe in such a magical thing as 'aliens' at first.

'Do you think reality is science fiction?' A lot of military bigwigs sneered at McCroft, 'Have you been in your right mind lately?' Not long ago, I mentioned the management of wizards, and now it is the alien invasion of London, fantasy and science fiction, you have a wide range of knowledge! ’

Although Mycroft had come up with no less than a hundred brilliant plans in his mind to 'get rid of these people', it was useless at this moment.

The two sides wasted enough time arguing. It wasn't until London turned into a battlefield that the group of opinionated military bigwigs were horrified to find out: This news is actually true!

They rushed to mobilize the army, but it was really ...... Too late.

With a black umbrella and a heavy face, Mycroft looked out of the floor-to-ceiling window at the city of London, where there was fire everywhere and the sound of bombing, he walked back and forth anxiously, clenching his fists.

He reached out his hand backwards, and the assistant lady, who was always following him, immediately handed a black mobile phone to the palm of his hand.

"Daniel, where are you now?"

"Safe place...... Daniel Black's voice sounded a little gasp, "I just thought that I heard that Malfoy Manor has good defenses, and I'm going to go over and hide." ”

Mycroft couldn't help but roll his eyes, he lit the floor with a black umbrella, and fought back his anger, "that Ministry of Magic of yours, get your cops ...... No, what kind of Auror team pulled out to help......"

"Are you kidding? The Aurors don't listen to me! Daniel shouted in surprise on the other end of the phone.

"It's not an order, Daniel." In a calm tone, McCroft said, "This is a request. ”

Daniel was silent on the other end of the line.

"Whether it's a wizard, or an ordinary person. The UK and London are our common home. ”

"But, I ......"

"It's also an opportunity." McCroft said on the phone with extreme calmness: "This is a good opportunity for ordinary people to accept wizards. Think about saving London from alien terrorists. The image of wizards will no longer be the monsters that eat children in fairy tales, but heroes. ”

He turned around, looked quietly at his reflection in the floor-to-ceiling window, and used a phrase that Nick Fury often used when he applied to the International Security Council: "Superhero!" ”

"Daniel, I know you're not as careless as you seem. You won't watch this happen, maybe you don't have a sense of belonging to the UK, but you have a good heart, and it won't let you stand by and turn a blind eye when tragedy happens......"

"Thank you, sir, for your understanding and compliment, but I'm already at the Ministry of Magic. If you want to chat, I'll be with you another day. ”

Daniel's smiling words came from the phone, and McCroft was stunned for a moment, narrowed his eyes, and repeated in an accentuated tone: "Already to the Ministry of Magic?" ”

"Yes, I did plan to stay away...... But there's my favorite dessert shop in the city centre. ”

"Whoever attacks the dessert shop is my enemy!"

"I'm sorry I lied to you, but I'm honored to hear you say so much, talk to me so cutely, and use the word 'request'." Daniel sighed.

Then, he joked on his phone, "Don't be mad at me, sir. When this is over, I will bring special desserts from the wizarding world and make amends to you in person. ”

Mycroft listened to the beep of hanging up the phone over there, half ringing, and pursed his lips: "Cheeky."

However, in the end, the corners of his lips rose slightly uncontrollably, and he muttered to himself: "One qiΔ“ peace." ”

Then, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, and gave a second order: "Inform Kingsman, tell SΓΉ Merlin, for those rookies, a great internship opportunity has arrived." Let them help as secretly as possible, but in extraordinary times, they can break the 'secret agent secrecy rules' and shoot directly and publicly. ”

"Yes, Sir." The faithful assistant lady agreed.

"How's the evacuation going?"

"I just got the news that the chief of the Scotland Yard Police Department, Lestrade, ignored the orders from above and rushed over to the rescue with a team of people after half an hour." The assistant replied with admiration.

Mycroft's heavy expression finally showed a hint of relief.

Although the center of London is already in chaos, the wizarding world in the United Kingdom has not been harmed for the time being due to the magical barrier, but it is not so calm.

"Captain Sevic, Sirius asks for backup."

"Support? What kind of support? ”

"There was a large number of strange non-human terrorists in the center of London, smashing and killing, and when Director Black learned about it, he took a team of Aurors to check it out. Just now, he sent back the news that the scene is very dangerous, but many innocent citizens in London have not been able to evacuate in time, so he asked for support. ”

"Danger? Who allowed him to lead the team over? Dangerous! Isn't the danger because he doesn't listen to orders and acts on his own? What does this have to do with me? ”

Director Sevic had long since looked at Sirius, who was always against him. At this time, when he learned such news, regardless of his rule of 'don't do anything, but seek peace', purely from the bottom of his heart, he hoped that Sirius would be unlucky.

"But, ...... over there, London"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I've just heard that those terrorists aren't human, but they're not magical creatures either. They're mechanical, or Muggles make them themselves...... Wait, machinery, that's what Muggles are called, right? ”

The head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement stood at Auror Command and said publicly, "This is an internal Muggle affair, and it has nothing to do with us wizards. ”

"But, the Director......," a dark-haired wizard objected, "but what if you let it go, what if it harms the wizarding world?" Muggles ignore the Charm, just to keep Muggles out of our sights, but not to fend off those attacks......"

"Are you kidding?" Elder Sevich turned his head, "How could a Muggle thing hurt a wizard?" Even if you can't give him an Arvada, just destroy him. Do you need to teach yourself or someone else an armor to protect yourself? Even if it doesn't work, it's always okay for the phantom to move away and escape, right? ”

"But what if ......"

"There is no case, even if there is. Then we are also out to protect the wizards. Protect Muggles, no way. Master Sevich said coldly, "Wizards' lives are much more precious than Muggles. Muggles have nothing to do with us, and I don't feel the need to risk them for the sake of a group of Muggles. ”

When Daniel rushed into the Ministry of Magic, he was just in time to hear the last words of the great Captain Sevich.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at the Aurors in an office, "See what I heard?" A coward is making excuses for his cowardice. ”

"Who let you in?" Director Sevich glared at him with a weak heart and roared loudly: "Daniel Black, you are not a staff member of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, don't just run around because you are from the Black family. This is the Ministry of Magic, not Black's house, and it's not a place for you to go wild. ”

"Although I really want to quarrel with you." Daniel casually lifted the hem of his T-shirt and wiped the sweat on his face, "But now the situation is critical, I really don't have time to ......"

He clenched his fists, stepped forward sharply, and gave the boss a hard left hook that knocked him to the ground.

Sevic obviously didn't expect Daniel to dare to attack the Ministry of Magic officials so blatantly, and he fell to the ground in a hurry, and was just about to draw his wand to resist, when he heard a voice in his ear: 'No dizziness, damn it!' I said earlier, I'm a civilian! Civilian! ’

As these words rang out, the damn little Blake pounced again, holding a wooden chair next to him and slamming it down viciously!

Captain Sevic's eyes widened in horror, and then, his eyes went dark.

This time, I was completely dizzy.

"Actually, you can use a faint." An Auror next to him whispered Jian Yì.

"Dude!" Daniel kicked the poor boss in anger again.

He turned his head, looked at the Auror seriously, waved his fist, and said, "Even though I am a wizard of distant attack, I also have a warrior's heart that wants to fight in close combat!" ”

Then, in a very low voice, he said, "Don't you think it's a great sense of accomplishment to break the head of this bastard Sevic?" ”

The Aurors looked at each other and said nothing.

"Alright, everyone! As Master Sevic said, go rescue the wizard! You can't protect Muggles, but you have to protect wizards, and he's right. ”

"Now, I declare: the first wizard who needs to be rescued is our great Master Sevich."

Daniel grappled his fainting body and said solemnly: "The great Chief Sevich has braved the center of London alone and been besieged by terrorists in order to rescue your brave Director Black. ”

"Be sure to go and rescue him quickly!"

Then, in front of the still dazed Aurors, he turned sharply, his blue eyes burning with flames.

He looked at them solemnly and firmly: "There are some things that I will only say once!" ”

"Guys, it's not a wizard and Muggle problem."

"No one is more noble than human life, and life has never been measured by wizards or Muggles."

"People who don't lend a helping hand when they see other people's lives in danger are not as good as livestock when they lose their conscience."

"We are protecting our country and fighting for the most precious treasure in the world - life, and this is justice."

"Whoever wants to destroy our England, we will fight! Whoever wants to destroy our London, we will fight! ”

"A poor creature like this...... sneered, sneering and kicking Sevic again, "it is time to go to the flames of hell and repent of his cowardice and incompetence." Pick up your wand for me! ”

He said loudly: "Noble English wizards, we have the blood and courage of our battle-hardened ancestors flowing in our veins! Merlin also led us to fight with King Arthur on the battlefield, and our fathers and ancestors fought valiantly against the enemy, never taking a step back, until the enemy knelt down and begged for mercy and fled. ”

"Now, in the face of an unknown enemy, we will not retreat and fight to the end!"

"Don't let your mother be ashamed of you. Come on, set an example for those soft eggs who don't have the guts, and sue them, what is a man! ”
