The world is in trouble.

After Maca took the group to the island for refuge, Fort Blois was destroyed - both on the surface and on the inside, and all of them were in ruins overnight.

It was followed by the United Kingdom.

When many people are cursing Helbo and wondering if the other party has an enmity with the country...... Yes, speaking of which, Helbo does have a grudge against the country. If it weren't for the four founders of Hogwarts, how could he have been buried underground for nearly a thousand years?

Of course, for this reason or not, Britain is experiencing a stormy attack from the south to the north.

The night, the night after Fort Blois fell, the nightmarish attack began. One could not see Helbo's movements, because the gray fog had returned, and they had hidden the crimes he had committed in it.

With Maca missing, and Britain suffering, the European forces finally had no choice but to watch from the sidelines. In addition, they all wanted to know what was going on in the ever-expanding fog, so several groups of exploration teams formed by various forces were sent into the fog area.

However, it may be more appropriate to call these teams "death squads", because these people do go in with the consciousness of death to find out.

Surprisingly, these squads were not wiped out as expected, and in the end, a few of them returned.

Through the hands of these wizards who desperately tried to enter, the general situation in the fog was finally known to the outside world.

According to them, many of the cities there have been reduced to rubble, and corpses can be seen everywhere between the ruins. And this time, Helmpo also transformed the corpses of those Muggles into groups of walking dead, "contributing" to his continued northward advance.

As for Helpo...... Sorry, he wasn't seen by any of the squads that could get out. And it seems that the few teams that have not heard from each other since they entered may not have been able to escape because they met Helbo.

However, the fortunate thing in the misfortune is that it takes a lot of time to invade an entire country with Helbo's ability.

Especially the fog that continues to spread northward, it is not something that Helbo can "conjure" out of thin air. Even if the number of living corpses is growing as they advance, every time the fog area expands, Helbo needs to consume a large number of living corpses to detonate the "fog production".

Therefore, although Helpo's march was fast, it would take a long time to "swallow" the whole of Britain in one gulp.

And it is worth mentioning that it is obviously not only the army of living corpses created by Helbo that will "explode"!

In the process of Helbo's invasion all the way north, the British royal family, which had been cornered by him, could no longer hide in silence. Following the "mushroom" planted in the Strait of Dover by not knowing who had done it, the British royal family finally had no choice but to start an explosion on their own soil.

From here, Maca's earlier words of "don't easily push Muggles into a corner" were finally confirmed.

Even with Helbo's strength, the British royal family's counterattack slightly halted the pace of progress, giving many Muggle cities in front of the fog more opportunities to escape.

At the same time, however, on the small island of Rowena, Maca's lessons had just begun.

Today, no one can say what the future holds.

……

“…… Harry, don't worry about any accidents, I'll keep your soul under control. All you have to do is challenge it again - since Gryffindor has chosen you, it means that you at least have the possibility of inheriting his weapon, so go for it! ”

In the backyard of the Wizard's Tower, Maca put one hand on Harry's shoulder as she whispered words of encouragement in his ear. In front of Maca, Harry gripped the hilt of the Gryffindor Sword with both hands, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, apparently struggling with something unseeable.

But after saying this to Harry, Maca didn't stop, but looked up and back again. There, the other person's face was just as good, and he couldn't see anywhere.

"Neville, keep holding on! Mental toughness will make your Patronus Charm even more powerful - this is only the first stage, and if you can't carry such a stone, you won't be able to continue your training after that. ”

That's right, it's Neville standing there right now. He was holding his wand and pointing it straight above his head, and just above him, a boulder dangled and looked like it was going to fall at any moment.

He had been using the levitation charm for half an hour, and an ordinary wizard would be shocked to see this. But listening to what Maca said, it seems that this is just the beginning.

After saying that to Neville, Maca turned her head to look in the other direction again.

"Hermione, Luna, you don't need to be in a hurry—learning the rule rune is not in a hurry, and you need to rely on gradual comprehension to slowly understand its essence. As for the writing of the runes, they don't need to be very accurate at first, because as you begin to understand them, you will naturally realize the mystery of their strokes. ”

As Maca spoke, Hermione and Luna were still undistracted when they sat side by side on the floor, looking at a thin piece of old parchment.

At the same time, Delphi, who had mastered the cooling rules, sat opposite the two of them, quietly reminding the two of them.

This is the first time that Maca has even taken out the "Scroll of Truth" for others to see, and it is obvious that he is really determined to make everyone's strength grow rapidly this time.

Although, it is not yet known to everyone what will become of it.

"At least it won't get worse than it is now."

Maca glanced at the three of them again, muttering something to herself, before turning to look outside the courtyard.

Compared to the small courtyard, the outside of the courtyard, which has just been vacated by Maca, is obviously more open. And this is also more convenient for the friends to carry out actual combat exercises.

Since there was a big gap between Ron and the others and Harry, even Maca couldn't make them greatly increase their strength all at once.

For this reason, he chose another way to make them stronger.

"Be careful, too! Take your time at first, don't rush—" Maca shouted at the big guys outside the courtyard.
