Chapter 1959: Percy in Distress
The power used by the enemy is very similar to that of his own, and his own power is given by Maca...... So, what's going on here?
Safina suddenly felt very puzzled.
However, rushing back to Weymouth is the priority right now, and it is clearly not the time to think about these details.
“…… In short, you can't go on that side of Southampton Bay - the enemy is blocking the road over there! Safina frowned, "And, judging from the situation before my subordinate was killed, it seems that the other party is able to control a large number of other living corpses, which is probably the reason why we have found more and more dense living corpses along the way." ”
"So, we're still going to have to go by land?" Harry thought for a moment, then waved his hand, "Then let's go!" Since that guy is in Southampton, if you continue to go west, the number of living corpses in front of you should start to decrease again. ”
"Well," Safina nodded, "let's go!" ”
With that, she cleared the living corpses again, and took Ursula's hand and turned her head to fly west. Seeing this, everyone immediately followed.
Walking by land, even if you fly, the speed is definitely much slower than that of the sea. After all, in the misty region, this group of living corpses that spread all over the mountains and even in the sky could not be avoided.
Fortunately, as Harry had just said, as the distance from Southampton, where the demon was, and the relatively small number of living corpses in the western region, their density was significantly decreasing.
However, as they got closer and closer to the city of Weymouth, everyone's mood was never relaxed, because they soon discovered another problem.
"Harry, the enemy density is definitely much smaller than before, but ...... The number of living corpses that have evolved here has increased a lot compared to before! In the past, it was almost impossible to see those evolved individuals here, but now you see-"
Ginny slowed down slightly, stepped back to Harry's side, and spoke of what she had observed.
"yes!" When Harry heard this, he couldn't help but bow slightly, "Although it is definitely much better than Winchester's side, but with these evolved individuals, I don't know if the defensive strength of the camp can withstand it." ”
Hermione had left a line of defense made of gravity traps at Camp Weymouth, which could be maintained as long as a wizard provided magic in the formation.
However, the fixed gravity trap is really just a "trap", and it is not a big problem to deal with ordinary living corpses with only simple instincts, but in front of evolved living corpses, it is definitely not enough.
"Miss Göfgain, we might as well speed things up a little faster!"
"Huh? Good. ”
Safina, who was opening the way in front, heard Harry's proposal from behind, but she didn't object. After a slight nod, she manipulated the Black Flame to attack the living corpse faster and sharper.
And because the pressure from the enemy is getting less and less, the efficiency of rushing is further increased. As an hour or so passed, Harry and the others noticed that the scene below was becoming more and more familiar.
"That's the road sign for Bavington, it should be almost to Weymouth!" As he passed over a road, Ron pointed to a sign on the road.
"Well, I saw that too." Harry answered.
……
Seriously, things are not going well at Weymouth.
In fact, before Harry and the others set off from Winchester, Camp Weymouth was already in trouble. And this so-called "trouble" also comes from those sudden evolutionary living corpses.
Originally, although there were ordinary living corpses here, and even encountered several attacks by the tide of living corpses, there were very few evolved living corpses here.
This time, however, the situation is completely different.
"Mr. Weasley, emergency! An extremely fast living corpse has appeared outside the northern defenses, and our spells will be hard to hit! And they...... Seems to be 'interested' in our camp. ”
As soon as he heard the guard's report, Percidon realized that this was a big problem!
Speaking of which, the presence of evolved individuals near Weymouth has always been a concern for Percy. And now, what he feared has finally happened.
"How many?" He sprang to his feet and hurriedly asked, "How far is it from our outermost line of defense?" ”
"It's close, and because it's fast...... Although everyone on the line is trying to intercept it, I guess a few of them should have run near the line by this time. As for the quantity...... Before I left the line, there should have been more than a dozen, but there could be more to come. ”
The guard calculated.
And when he finished speaking, Percy nodded in understanding:
"Tell everyone, don't fight hard until you retreat to the last line of defense! But if you can't even stop Miss Granger's gravity traps, get ready to fight hard! Camp Weymouth can't be lost, they must not be allowed to storm the camp! And I, now go and inform Madame Maxim - hold on! ”
"Yes!"
The guard immediately answered, then turned and ran out of the tent.
It must be said that Percy was actually feeling a little glad at this moment. The new group of family wizards who have been added to the Blois family before are not only strong in battle, but also completely loyal to the Blois family, and are the kind of warriors who dare to sacrifice.
With their ethos as an example, and the name of the Blois family, the teams that had previously been assigned by other Alliance members were finally stabilized.
If it were the same state of panic as before, I'm afraid there should be someone who escaped this time!
It's a pity that no matter how high the quality of these wizards sent by the Blois family is, they are just a group of ordinary wizards. In the face of those individuals who have evolved in the living corpses, it is also impossible to really fight each other. With the combat abilities of the evolved living corpses that Harry had described, if Mr. Blois himself hadn't been brought in, I'm afraid the result would still be pretty bad.
Yes, Percy wouldn't be naïve to think that there really were only a dozen of those guys!
Percy picked up the quill, thinking of writing an urgent letter to Madame Maxim of Beauxbatons asking for help. However, he began to hesitate again at the thought of the news he had received that Mr. Blois no longer wanted to make a move.
Calling for help was necessary, but he couldn't just leave the trouble to Madame Maxime—he had to figure out how to get Monsieur Blois himself.
