Chapter 1792: Real Mock Battle
Is the Brandt family trying to make enemies of Hermione and the other three?
No, obviously, even if they had such an idea in their hearts, at least on the surface, they would not dare to do it. Not to mention Maca, who stood behind Hermione, and the Blois family, represented by the old butler, the current headmaster of Beauxbatons, Madame Maxim, alone was enough for the old head of the Brandt family to think twice.
So, do they really just want to see the strength of Hermione and the others? Needless to say, the Brandt family's considerations certainly can't be so simple.
"The real purpose of his visit this time is probably to find out our true strength......
After Erich's father took the gray-robed old man to go out of the door first, the old butler, who had been silent, said slowly:
"The Brandt Family...... No, not only the Brandt family. I think that probably the vast majority of the forces that are in a wait-and-see posture at the moment are trying to figure out whether it will be Helmault or Mr. McKellen who will win in the end. After all, if they continue to be so confused, they will be scared too! ”
"Are they afraid?" When Erich on the side heard this, he couldn't help but whisper, "Now that almost all of you are carrying so many dangers, what are they afraid of?" ”
But soon, Hermione shook her head and said:
"Of course 'they' will be afraid, especially now—if we are utterly defeated, then with Helbo's nature, they will be the ones who will suffer. Even I think it will be useless for them to surrender by then, and Helbo will not have the slightest mercy for the worthless. ”
"yes!" The old butler bowed slightly, "However, knowing the terrifying strength of the other party, how many people dare to fight him with their own lives?" So even if they are frightened, they still only know to wait by bending their necks. Now the so-called wizard family is just a group of cowardly but face-saving guys in the face of this catastrophe...... In fact, if there were no Mr. McLean in the way, we Blois would not be much better off than them. ”
The more extraordinary the achievements of the ancestors of the past, the heavier the burden on their descendants. The old butler, who had worked in the Blois family all his life, could not have seen this more clearly.
And listening to him say this, Erich finally gritted his teeth and said:
"Miss Granger, Madame Maxime, and Steward Blois, I want to join you, and I want to join you in challenging Helpo! Maybe my strength is not at all important in this disaster, and I want to do my part, so that I can at least let me know that I am fundamentally different from those elders of my Brandt family! ”
"Oh, of course it's all right," said Madame Maxime, "even if it's just you, we can't ask for it!" ”
"I'm going to join in," said Ms. de Quinn at once, "Erich's decision is mine—when I get back, I'll immediately start beckoning wizards from all over Belgium." ”
"Thank you," Hermione smiled, "thank you for your support, and we're always welcome to both of you." It's just that maybe we'll have to talk about it after we successfully break out of the fire dragon's encirclement. ”
……
Hundreds of adult fire dragons, and they are still in a state of being guided by a dragon trainer. Even an experienced dragon trainer can't fully command a fire dragon with a ferocious nature, but the power that can be formed by the combination of the two is by no means as simple as "1+1".
Such a large battle, although the actual combat power is not even comparable to the first batch of living corpse army created by Helbo at the beginning. But today, Harry, who is the most powerful under Maca, is not here, and with only the three of Hermione, it is also a big challenge.
"Roar—"
As soon as she was out of the house, Hermione finally heard the roars of dragons that were cut off by the magic of the Ministry of Magic's buildings, and just by listening to the roars, she knew that the so-called "hundred dragons" were certainly not a false report—no, maybe there were more than a hundred.
"Miss Granger, are you coming out so soon?" Edward, who was already guarding the door, watched them come out and chuckled, "I thought you would need more time to prepare!" ”
Although his words do have some other meanings in them, except for a certain degree of flirtation, they actually do not contain any sarcastic meaning.
In the face of so many fire dragons, everyone has to weigh it carefully - at least he himself will never do such a "stupid thing".
But in this regard, Hermione only pursed her lips and said:
"Since you said you want to simulate the confrontation with Helpo, the more realistic the better, isn't it? So, do you think Helbo will give us time to prepare if he tries to attack? ”
"Uh," Edward paused in silence when he heard Hermione say this, before nodding, "Did you decide to take the two of them with you?" Then I'm looking forward to seeing what you do - if you can pass today, I'm sure the wizarding people of all Europe will be greatly encouraged! ”
"Who is worrying now, but the wizard?"
Hermione sighed, and suddenly she felt that she didn't want to be angry with this father of Erich. Because compared to these "little things", there are many more important things waiting for her to worry about!
"Madame Maxim, Mr. Butler, and two, it's time for us to go."
Before she could finish speaking, she took out her broomsticks and distributed them to everyone, and then stepped on one of them. Seeing this, Edward on the side immediately glanced at the gray-robed old man not far away.
The next moment, I saw the old man's wand pointing upwards, and a red fireball instantly flew high and exploded in the air with a "bang".
"Roar !!!!"
A loud roar mingled with the howling wind, echoing through the mountains and forests surrounding the Ministry of Magic. Then, I saw fire dragons of different sizes and varieties flapping their wings and climbing up in the air, even covering most of the surrounding sky.
Obviously, even the Brandt family could not have put together a hundred fire dragons of the same kind in such a short period of time.
"It's coming!"
Hermione soon saw that some of the fire dragons suddenly broke away from the surrounding group and rushed straight towards them.
"Let's go!"
Needless to say, Hermione and the old butler each took Erich and De Quinn first, and flew into the air at once. Because they knew that Madame Maxim was too big to fly directly with a broomstick, and they had to help cover it first.
