Chapter 1708: Late Night Inspection
"I'm sure I did hear someone calling me in Enns' room just now! I can't tell who that voice belonged to, but I think it's probably Ens ......."
In the room, Alexander carefully recounted what he had encountered, including his own attempt to remove some of the bondage spells from the other party, but ultimately failed due to Blois's magic.
And next to him, Maca, who was also sitting on the ground, couldn't help frowning after listening to his description. After a moment of silence, Maca first admonished:
"Remember, don't undo the spell on him lightly, unless you can be 100% sure that he hasn't been tracked by Helpo. If this island is also touched by Helpo, with our current situation, the result is only a dead end! β
Yes, that's what Maca warned Alexander. But to be honest, after hearing Alexander's account of the accident, Maca quickly became more curious and worried about Enns's state.
Think about it, the whole person is wrapped in heavy protection and seals, where did the voice Alexander hear come from?
"Although Mr. Blois is not very good at soul rules, he also knows that Helbo is very likely to have left soul magic on Enns. To this end, he also imposed several protections and restrictions on soul magic...... To penetrate those obstacles and convey your 'voice' to Alexander...... This is not an easy task. β
Maca pondered in her mind, and after a moment of thought, she suddenly stood up from the floor as if she had made a decision.
"Alexander, you call Harry for me, take him to the door of Enns's room and wait - remember to remind him to bring the Gryffindor sword, I'll be there in a moment."
Before he could finish speaking, he put away the magic note that he had put aside, and then went out of the room with Earns.
It didn't take long for the two to separate in the hallway on the second floor.
Maca walked down the arcing corridor to the left of the staircase to the back of the wizard's tower, paused briefly at the doorway of one of the rooms, and reached out and knocked on the door.
"Who?"
I heard the sound of inquiry very quickly, and it was clear that there were many people who didn't sleep as well as Maca and Alexander tonight!
"It's me...... Hermione, did you all sleep? β
As soon as he had finished asking, there was a repetition of the movement in the room, and then the door was opened with a series of footsteps.
"Maca? What happened? Hermione, dressed in her dressing gown and coat, looked at Maca standing in the doorway and said, "Is something wrong?" Does it matter? β
"Oh, no, no, it's nothingβ" Maka shook her head when she seemed a little nervous, "Luna is in the same room with you, right?" Is she asleep? If she's asleep, wake her up for me! I have something to ask her to help with. β
To be honest, Maca didn't really want them to meddle in the matter unless they had to. Nowadays, the situation is getting more and more dangerous, and the deeper you get involved, the more you will be targeted by Helbo, and Ens is actually a pretty typical example.
After hearing Maca's words, Hermione paused slightly, then nodded.
"Okay, I'll call her." As she said this, she suddenly couldn't help but whisper, "However, I can ...... Do you want to help? β
"Hermione, you ......"
Maca hesitated, looking at the hesitation in the other party's eyes, and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed. But after pondering for a few seconds, he nodded slightly at her.
"Thank you."
Hermione pursed her lips and suddenly turned around and ran back into the room, forgetting to close the door.
Seeing this, Maca had to reach out and help her close the door again - both of them were still wearing pajamas! In the past, you must have had to change your clothes, right?
After closing the door, Maca couldn't help but shake her head and muttered:
"Let's remind her to pay attention in a moment!"
Then, a few minutes later, the door was opened again, and Hermione pulled Luna, who was already a little dazed, out of it.
The moment the door was opened, Maca also noticed a flash of redness on Hermione's cheeks, obviously aware of her small "mistake" just now.
"Let's go! I even asked Alexander to call Harry - if Harry hadn't slept yet, the two of them would have been waiting for us over there! β
With that, Maca walked briskly to Enns' room with Hermione and Luna. Sure enough, when he looked around, Harry was already waiting in the hallway in front of the door with his sword in his hand.
"Maka, Alexander has just told me about the general situation, but it's just ...... I don't seem to understand what you're calling me to do? Harry raised his Gryffindor sword and shook it, "Are you still planning to ask me to slash Ens with one sword when I see that the situation is wrong?" β
"Of course not!" When Maca heard this, she immediately shook her head and said, "I called you over just to make you a guard - if something goes wrong and the other party wants to run, remember to stop him for me!" As for the rest, leave it to Luna and Alexander...... And, of course, Hermione to figure it out. β
As she spoke, Maca didn't stop, and as she spoke, she walked straight to the door of Enns's room, unscrewed the doorknob, and walked in.
However, with a pair of naked eyes, everything in the room seems to be free of any abnormalities. Ens also lay honestly on the bed, his whole body straight and motionless.
"Hermione, this ...... You can try to use it, just like a regular wand. Maca handed Hermione the silver serpent staff she had taken from Enns's hand, and after handing it to her, she added, "This was originally Enns's thing, and when he recovers, he will have to return it." β
"Okay."
Hermione took the snake staff and looked left and right, the snake carving on it was simply lifelike, and at first glance it was the kind of carefully crafted treasure.
Immediately after, Maca patted her on the shoulder and said:
"Then, it's up to you to protect Luna."
With that, Maca beckoned Luna and walked up to Ens's bedside.
"Luna, don't be sleepy, help me sense the state of Enns's soul - you now have the rough embryo of the Philosopher's Stone, which should be considered a strong point in this regard, remember to be careful."
"Hmm."
When Luna heard this, she immediately nodded and closed her eyes slightly, and gradually extended her spiritual power forward according to Maca's request, sensing the situation in Enns's body on the bed.
Maca couldn't do anything to help with this, all he could do was wait for Luna to tell her what she perceived.
Seeing her eyes slightly closed and standing still, I thought that she had always looked sleepy since just now, and even made people worry about whether she was just standing and falling asleep.
