"Then let's all take action! Hermione, you and Ginny go to the square to explain the situation to the volunteers who are going to gather, and maintain order by the way. Well... Myron? Since you and those organizations The volunteers know each other, so why not help out too! As for me, I have to inform the front line now - if this additional remedial operation is to be successful, it also needs cooperation from Maca. "
Lu Ping assigned the necessary preparations one by one, and his clear organization showed that he was really good at doing this kind of central planning.
But after he finished speaking, Delphi, who was not assigned the task, couldn't help but said:
"Mr. Lupine, what about... me?"
"Well," Lu Ping couldn't help but hesitated when he heard this, "If I have to say it... In fact, we would rather you go to support the front line. After all, with your strength second only to Maka... How should I say? Stay here. It’s really a waste here!”
Lupine is undoubtedly a kind and considerate person, and he has always been good at thinking about others. Obviously, he didn't want to say these words originally - at least he didn't want to say them so straightforwardly.
Because he could feel it to some extent, there must be a reason for Delphi to stay in Spiral Town.
However, the repeated collapse and retreat of the front line and the inefficiency of the rear evacuation team made him a little anxious.
Muggles are human beings too, and their lives are not something that can be given up at will. What's more, even if we choose to abandon those people who have no time to evacuate, they will eventually turn into living corpses and attack us instead.
Who would be willing to do something like this that adds strength to the enemy out of thin air
It's a pity that Delphi's current physical condition is no longer able to support her in fighting the army of zombies. This is probably only known to Maka and herself, who are pretending to be "Myron".
Seeing that Delphi didn't know how to answer for a moment after hearing Lupin's words, and Lupine seemed to feel a little regretful after seeing Delphi's appearance, Maka quickly took a step forward.
"Mr. Lupin," he said loudly, pretending to be surprised, "you just said... that this young lady is second only to Mr. McClane in strength? Oh, please forgive me for being a little ignorant. I didn't know that there is another one on our side. Such a powerful witch! After hearing what you said, I suddenly felt much more at ease—"
Yes, not only did Maka not reduce the pressure on Delphi, but she also deliberately raised her up even more invisibly through words of admiration.
After two compliments like this, he changed the subject and said:
"But Mr. Lupin, after knowing the strength of this young lady, I think I can understand her intention of insisting on staying in the town - no matter how tense the battle situation on the front line is, Haierbo has not yet appeared. No one can guarantee whether he will come over here and launch an attack from the rear while Mr. MacLean, the only enemy who can rival him, is fighting at the front."
Having said this, he shook his head somewhat exaggeratedly and sighed:
"In fact, somewhere in my heart I have probably been worried about this happening. But before I learned about this lady's strength, I was always blinded by the fierce and dangerous battlefield, and I didn't even notice it. Such a terrifying possibility exists!”
Although Maka's words were mainly to give Delphi a reason to stay in Spiral Town, they also contained some of his personal selfishness.
Yes, Maka seems to be unconsciously trying to make everyone pay more attention to the situation in Spiral Town, rather than the combat operations outside to resist the zombie army and evacuate the Muggle population.
Because for Maka, who considers herself an "ordinary person", perhaps the most important thing is the safety of acquaintances such as Luna, Hermione, and Delphi. Compared with this, other people's lives are certainly important, but at this critical moment, they must step aside.
It must be said that although Maka, who has returned in time, seems calm on the surface, it goes without saying that it goes without saying - how could he still be able to survive after witnessing the death of both Luna and Delphi? So calm
Perhaps even he himself hadn't realized that his thinking and actions had already been affected by the scarlet memory of that scene that still remained in his heart.
"Oh, right!"
Just when Lu Ping and others couldn't help but think about it, Maka suddenly changed the topic again:
"It seems that Lola hasn't been assigned anything to do yet, right? I think she should go to the central square to help on my behalf! I actually have some private matters here, and I need to talk to this... well, this lady Tell me."
The "young lady" he spoke of naturally referred to Delphi.
"Private matter?"
Seeing Delphi looking over with some confusion, Maka immediately said:
"Yeah...one thing about Marlena."
When Maka mentioned the enthusiastic lady in her temporary residence, Delphi couldn't help but was slightly startled - although the time she stayed there was short, almost all the people assigned to stay there had been taken care of by the other party, and Delphi also Same thing.
So after being stunned for a moment, she quickly nodded.
But at this moment, Lola, who was pushed away by Maka to Hermione and Ginny, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but tugged on the corner of Maka's clothes and said:
"Myron...I, I can't do it, there are so many people..."
"It's okay," Maka immediately turned around and comforted, "Those who are willing to become volunteers must be kind and brave good people, so don't be so nervous! What's more, I think there are still a minority of handsome men and beautiful women in this world. I’m sure you won’t be so shy that you can’t speak!”
"But-"
"Hey! Since you want to participate in this operation, you will have to face this kind of thing sooner or later, right? Come on! Just think of it as getting used to it first! After that, everyone will definitely need to work together as a team!"
Lola heard Maka's words and seemed to want to say something else, but Ginny who came over took her hand and walked out. On the other side of Ginny, Hermione walked hurriedly and said:
"In that case, let's go there first! Lupine has sent personnel from the Ministry of Magic to take action. It is estimated that someone will be there soon in the square. There is no time to delay any longer!"
Looking at Lola's pitiful expression as she was being pulled away, Maka could only make an encouraging gesture towards her, then turned around again and looked at Delphi who was waiting aside.
It was only then that Lu Ping gestured:
"Then you can settle your personal matters first! I'll go deliver the news to the front line, and we'll discuss the rest when I come back."
After that, he turned and walked towards the other end of the hall, leaving some space for the two of them to talk.
"So, what exactly is that thing about Malina?"
Delphi looked at Maka and asked proactively.
