Chapter 1841 There is a kind of trust called mutual use
"There are so many living corpses gathered in a London neighborhood?"
"Huh? Oh, it's actually a lot less than before, and the last time Willy and I came, almost everywhere in the city was in a state of inaccessibility, but it was much more 'spectacular' than it is now. β
When Maca sent his wizards to send Harry and the others away, he and Sarah immediately headed for the British Ministry of Magic in London, as they had promised.
Yes, the whole of London may be considered Helpo's territory right now. The army of living corpses he had created by finally covering almost all of Britain had filled London.
Fortunately, Maca's recent battle with Helpo proved that even if he knew that this was the other party's "base camp", he could take a "day trip" at any time.
"Now that we're here, Helbo should be able to detect it, right?" Sarah, who was following behind Maca, thought for a moment and quickly asked.
And Maca listened and nodded naturally.
"Of course," he said, "it would be strange if the fellow didn't find out!" But it doesn't matter, he's ...... now Most of them are not interested in coming to me. β
Having said that, Maca did not explain much.
And soon Sarah noticed that Maca had not stopped walking as she approached the many living corpses in front of her, and was still striding forward. At the same time, those living corpses did not attack him, and some of the people who stood in front of him took two steps to the side in tacit understanding, and made way for him one after another.
"Don't worry, as long as you follow me, you'll be fine." "In fact, the power that causes the resurrection of these dead is also the rule of the soul, and although I can't control and drive them like Helbo, I won't be attacked by them now." β
"That is...... "Sarah mused," "you and Helbo's power...... From the same source? β
"Well," Maka groaned a little when she said this, before shaking her head, "not so much 'homologous,' but rather that I had taken a similar path with him by mistake under the guidance of 'certain factors.'" β
With that, he paused slightly, and then added:
"You know, there are actually several branches of the Soul Rule - Helmo took one of them a long time ago, and I groped for the other. And then...... How to say that? The paths he and I have taken have different paths and end up in the same direction, so it probably depends on who can reach the end first and grasp the 'results'! β
With that, Maca turned her head slightly as she walked and glanced in the direction of Buckingham Palace.
"So," he adds, "I've been on the go, since my last previous encounter with him...... And he, I think, is the same. The recent wave of living corpses was probably caused by him in order not to let some inconsequential people or things disturb him. β
After hearing Maca's words, Sarah couldn't help but look up at his back and said:
"In that case, then why did you even call me here to help me mend my soul? You...... Shouldn't you be as busy as he is now? β
However, Maca immediately raised her hand and waved it at Sarah behind her.
"What if I say, I'll help you this time...... In fact, it is taking advantage of you, what do you think? "Like the Gofain sisters, I seem to be trying to take advantage of both of them, don't you think?" β
However, should it be said that it is because of the alchemical artificial man who has never had such a thing as "emotion"? When Sarah heard this, she quickly said very calmly:
"So you weren't using me before? Sorry, but to be honest, I always thought we were just using each other...... Oh, maybe I'll feel a little bit else when you've filled my soul, but that's all I've thought about so farβ"
Speaking of this, she pursed her lips and said:
"Because I don't think you need what normal people call 'white lies' to deceive you, so that's my truth."
"Haha!" When Maca heard this, she finally couldn't help but laugh a few times, "Good! I feel like it's been a long time since I've laughed so purely, and I have to thank you! And then...... Well, 'they're just using each other'...... Well said, you can see it thoroughly! Perhaps, the absence of feelings is not always a bad thing. β
Honestly, Sarah was actually quite rightβat least that's what Maca thought.
Because fundamentally, taking advantage of each other isn't necessarily a bad thing. As long as both parties are very clear in their hearts and do not mind being used by each other, then this may be "trust" in the true sense.
"What do you mean?" Sarah asked, feeling a little unintelligible.
"It's okay," Maca shook her head, "when you have your own emotions and emotions, then with your cleverness, you will naturally understand." β
Before he finished speaking, his footsteps suddenly paused, and then he turned his head to look to the side and said:
"Oh, here we are!"
β¦β¦
In order to make up for Sarah's "innate" missing soul, Maca leads her to the former British Ministry of Magic, which has become an enemy position.
Around the same time, Harry and the others had reached the point where they needed to face the battle head-on.
On the outskirts of Weymouth, a new wave of living corpses is approaching. To be honest, the number of living corpses this time is not as high as the previous one, it seems that only the living corpses that came from the east last time have gathered some of them again, and finally poured towards the port of Weymouth.
However, the "small number" was only relative, and to the wizards who were stationed in the camp here at Hermione's transfer, the frenzied crowd of living corpses on the other side of the mountain was as amazing as a pack of hungry wolves.
"Harry, I don't even feel ...... right now It seems that Maca deliberately bombed us back, just so that we could rush back in time to deal with this crisis! β
Neville, who was standing at the intersection with Harry, clutched his wand and couldn't help but say that.
"'Deliberately'? Maybe! The likelihood of deliberateness is indeed high...... It's just that I always feel that it shouldn't be for this corpse tide. Harry also lifted the Gryffindor sword and frowned, "If that's all he wants, why didn't he make it clear?" It only takes a sentence or two, right? β
"Don't think about that yet," Ginny urged behind them, "Mr. Blois, who is best at attacking at all angles, isn't here!" We need to act sooner...... Otherwise, even if this camp is now protected by alchemy, the port will sooner or later be occupied by the influx of living corpses. When the time comes, those survivors will be stuck inside and unable to get out! β
