Chapter 1794: Signal
"Looks like these fire dragons won't be able to stop them...... Hans, go back at once and report everything that happened here to the head of the house, and ask him to think again about the next support that our Brandt family will provide to that McLean. β
"Yes...... I, I'll go. β
After watching the old man's phantom shape leave in front of him, Edward frowned and muttered secretly:
"Since Helmo can't be relied on at all, we'll have to stand on McLean's side. And now it seems that McLean's gang is definitely powerful, and the strength is terrifying...... But then again, if even they can't defeat Helbo, then the future of this world is really unimaginable! β
In fact, the Brandt family has always been very clear in their thinking, and they know that Helbo is destined to be the enemy of everyone. If nothing else, just look at Britain today and understand that the most "merciful" thing Helbo can do to all ordinary people is to turn them all into living corpses who absolutely obey his command.
To be honest, Helbo's approach is incomprehensible to most people - if there is only himself left in this world, then what is the point of his life?
But today, all of Helbo's actions show that he doesn't seem to need any "companions" at all. For him, it seems to confirm the unreasonable saying that "only the dead are trustworthy".
Probably only someone like Maca who vaguely sensed Helbo's true intentions would understand what the hell that guy had in his head!
Well...... No, maybe even Maca didn't really understand Helbo's thoughts!
It's just that, except for Maca, who has been the only one who has been able to face Helbo so far, everyone else obviously doesn't need to think so deeply. Including Hermione, the old butler, and even Edward of the Brandt family, everyone is just trying to "survive" in order to resist or avoid the threat posed by Helpo.
ββ¦β¦ Mr. Butler, if you can break out of the encirclement any further, then Erich and Ms. De Quinn will be handed over to you. Be careful, Maca once said that the moment of relaxation is usually the most dangerous moment, and it is important to make sure that it is safe before apparition. β
Above the mountains, Hermione was still leading the three of them forward.
Because the effect of gravity rules on large, heavy flying creatures such as fire dragons is particularly obvious, they are basically in danger in the process of breaking through the encirclement.
And now, seeing that she was about to rush out of the fire dragons, Hermione suddenly said that she was ready to leave. At this timing, it seems somewhat strange.
But it was clear that this was originally agreed upon by them in advance.
"Yes, Miss Granger," the old butler immediately replied, "you have to be careful yourself, you don't have many rune cards left!" β
"Hmm."
As she spoke, Hermione swung her wand and threw two more cards forward, each flying under the two dragons that were closing in on her again.
In the next second, the rules were activated instantly, tearing the two fire dragons down at the same time.
At the same time, Hermione had already led the three of them to escape the attack of the two fire dragons again, and as she rolled sideways to avoid the dragon's breath, she confirmed that there were only seven or eight fire dragons left in front of her.
"Miss Granger, it's okay! Leave it to me! Seeing this, the old butler couldn't help shouting.
"Good!"
Hermione spun over and swooped back unexpectedly. However, before leaving the group, she still threw out two more cards, cutting some of the threat for the old butler again.
"What is she going to do......" Edward, who was in the distance, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw this scene, and then suddenly said, "Ah! And Madame Maxim. β
Yes, from the very beginning, Maxim used the Illusion Charm to hide his figure, and it seemed that he intended to pass through the encirclement of the fire dragon alone from the mountains and forests below. However, with the dragon's sensitivity to the changes in its surroundings, it was not an easy task for Madame Maxim's huge body to not make any movement in the woods.
What's more, there are as many as 100 fire dragons that the Brandt family has brought this time!
With so many fire dragons, they actually couldn't exert their full strength when besieging Hermione and the four of them, after all, there were only a few that could surround them and attack directly. However, with their size, they can fly enough to cover most of the small undulating mountains in the vicinity.
For Madame Maxim, this is an absolute disadvantage.
"If it's just two or three fire dragons, I should be able to resist it alone, but if there are more...... Obviously, not being discovered by them is the best outcome. β
There had been a discussion before leaving the halls of the Ministry of Magic, and that was what Madame Maxim had said at that time.
And in this regard, Hermione only said one sentence:
"I'll be back to help you after sending Mr. Brandt and Ms. DeQuinn out, so please send me a signal then."
"Roarβ"
The fire dragon that came at her again left Hermione with no time to recall her previous plan. But what she was going to do next, she had already reconfirmed.
This time, she didn't use the few rune cards she had left, but purely relied on the Quidditch technique she had practiced hundreds of times, weaving between the dragon's breath and itself.
If you want to kill the fire dragon in a short period of time, Hermione alone can't do it, and it's not even easy to hurt these magical creatures with thick skin and strong magic resistance.
So, she could only honestly hide from it.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a soft sound came from the mountains and forests a little farther away. It wasn't loud, not enough to attract too much attention from the dragon, but it was for Hermione to hear it all at once.
"Is it there?" Hermione glanced in that direction, "I didn't expect Lady Maxim to have run a lot of distance without a word. β
Thinking so, she didn't change her direction and flew straight there, but instead took the initiative to launch a small but enough spell attack on the fire dragons.
Then, she led a large group of fierce fire dragons straight above Madame Maxim's location, and flew straight into the distance.
"Whew!"
Because a few fire dragons were chasing too closely, Hermione, who was worried about being swept away by the dragon's breath from behind, had to consume a few more cards. But at this moment, on the beaded bag she hung diagonally on her body, a bead engraved with magic suddenly lit up with a burst of light, which made her heart jump suddenly.
