Chapter 1517: "The Promised Thing"

"Okay, that's it!"

When Hermione carved the last line on the last stone slab, she pulled everyone to work on the magic diagram slate and finally made all of them.

Since this set of formations is from the same drawings as the one that Maca asked her to make at Hogwarts, I believe that the debugging will be smoother because of the corresponding experience, which is undoubtedly good news for the current urgent situation.

"The next step is to go and place these magic stone tablets according to the drawings...... Or like we did at school, Luna and I went our separate ways, Ginny-"

"Wait."

As Hermione was talking, she suddenly saw Luna stand up and waved her hand, and said excitedly:

"No need, you just need to help move all the stone slabs to the central square, and I'll take care of the rest! Just 'bang-la-la' and you can put all the slates in place...... 'bang-la-la'! ”

……

Just ten minutes after Luna volunteered to place all the stone slabs by herself, the magic stone slabs that Hermione and the others had transported to the square were indeed manipulated by Luna to merge with the mercury statue, and flew towards the town like droplets of water from a spring.

Needless to say, such a conspicuous scene made the town see more people. Among them, including Delphi, who has been sitting by the window and looking out.

"That's ...... Rune slate? ”

Looking at the large slabs of stone that swept through the air and flew to various locations in the town, Delphi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Could it be Dad...... No, he'd already done all the defensive preparations he had to make? "But if it weren't for Dad, who else here would be able to do that easily?" ”

Just thinking about it, she suddenly seemed to remember something, and suddenly said "ah".

"It's the alchemy statue! There is a large enough mana support there, even if the mental power is insufficient, it can be supported by mana...... So, is it Miss Lovegood? ”

At the thought of Luna, Delphi suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but fall silent again.

She remembered that Maca had asked her for something before...... An important thing that cannot be said to people casually. That thing is, when necessary, take Luna, Hermione and others, and protect them from the secret passages of Spiral Town.

Yes, Delphi thought it didn't seem difficult. Because even if Helbo appeared in person, with such a large number of evacuees as Spiral Town, it would not be easy to find her actions immediately, and it would not be a problem for her to escape through a secret passage that few people knew about.

However, for now, the word "no problem" can probably only be used for Delphi at that time - she can't do it now.

"Miss Lovegood, they must be making the final preparations for this town, right?" Delphi looked at the general direction of the central square and couldn't help but whisper, "That is, the enemy will come soon." ”

As she said this, she suddenly reached out and grabbed the wand that was on the coffee table in front of her, and gripped the handle of the wand tightly.

"Let's not mention the things on the front line, I still have to do what I promised my father in person...... That's right, I have to go over, and I'll go now. ”

Before he could finish speaking, Delphi suddenly got up from his chair, took his wand and looked out the window again, and then turned and ran out of the room as fast as he could.

……

"Luna, can you even do this kind of thing?"

While Delphi was still on her way to this side of the plaza, Luna, who had entered the mercury statue, had placed all the magic tablets in their intended positions.

And just when Hermione and the others were amazed by this, everyone saw the statue suddenly raise its hand, and a beam of light immediately soared into the sky, followed by two layers of magic shields that suddenly flickered in the sky above the town.

Obviously, one layer is the original protective magic of Spiral Town, which has been strengthened by Maca's hand, and the other layer is the new magic shield that everyone has made.

Even if the new shield will definitely be relatively more fragile, in any case, more protection will still make everyone feel more at ease.

After a while, Luna Fu stepped out of the mercury statue again, and then jumped off the base of the statue with ease. Hermione couldn't help but glance at the statue before pulling Luna and her friends back together.

"In this way, Luna, the only one who can enter this statue, must be protected! Neville, if the army of living corpses does come to attack the town, you don't want to go anywhere, just stay here and guard Luna and the statue......" Hermione said seriously, suddenly pausing slightly, "Well, Hannah will stay here too!" With Neville. ”

"I see."

After the impulsive lesson in the underground corridor, Neville seemed to finally regain his composure. Now that he had heard about Hermione's assignment, he understood the reason, and immediately responded.

Then, Hannah, who was following Neville, nodded slightly.

"And then," Hermione continued, "Ginny, you're going to be in the observation room!" ...... with Ron When you get back later, remember to talk to Ron as well. ”

After explaining to Ginny, she moved her gaze to the side again, looking at the next person.

"As for Percyβ€”"

I don't know if I'm embarrassed to say it, Hermione couldn't help but pause. But soon, Percy shook his head at her, and with a little regret on his face, and more calmly, he took the initiative to speak:

"I'll forget it! I'll go and gather with the other evacuees in a moment, and even if I am given any mission, I won't be able to do it, and maybe I'll be delayed! ”

"Percy."

Seeing him say this, Ginny was obviously a little sentimental. But before she could say more, she heard a rush of footsteps gradually sounding from a certain direction, making everyone subconsciously turn their heads to look over.

"Delphi?"

After seeing who the figure that appeared from the corner of the square was, the first reaction of the friends was basically just to say hello, but Hermione was quite surprised.

"You...... How did you get here? Hermione looked at Delphi who was running towards her, and said with some confusion, "How's the situation at the front?" Wait, can't it be...... The enemy has come? ”

This sentence can make the hearts of the friends jump - if it really comes so soon, then there must be something big wrong! Otherwise, I had just received news that the group of living corpses who had just left Dartford City, why did they cross the other two-thirds of the way and go directly to Canterbury City?

Fortunately, when Delphi heard this, he immediately waved his hand to dismiss Hermione's particularly scary speculation.

"No, not what you think."
