Just believing in Maka and doing nothing may indeed be enough for Cathy and the others. But for Willy herself, that was far from enough.
Yes, since she still has the ability to act for Maka and to bring this disaster to an end as soon as possible, then if she does nothing.
This is just laziness, isn't it
Therefore, what Weili said just now was obviously just to make the friends in front of him try not to think too much.
It's a pity that even though Lupine and the others didn't mention too much information about the outside world in front of Cathy and others, there is obviously no shortage of thoughtful people here. Relying on only the sporadic information they received from Landing, they gradually pieced together many disturbing incidents.
As the surging sense of crisis from the outside world seeps in bit by bit, how can everyone calm down now
It was impossible to prevent them from thinking wildly from the beginning.
What is worth mentioning is that in fact, even what Willy said at the moment "believe him" turned into a side proof of Maka's current state.
Let me ask, if nothing happened to Maka, why would she say this
However, perhaps out of trust in Willy and helplessness with the little power they had, no one asked further.
It turns out that many things in this world can be contradictory, especially when it comes to people's emotions.
When they were out of touch with the real-time situation of the outside world, everyone wanted to know more, and even spent a lot of energy trying to piece together the facts from Lupine and his friends' words. But after learning more and more about the actual situation, everyone discovered that sometimes ignorance is actually a kind of happiness.
Compared to facing the abyss but being powerless, being swallowed by the abyss without knowing anything, at least the pain and fear will be shorter.
Of course, this kind of self-deception will definitely not last long.
"Maha?"
Suddenly, it was little Delphi's childish voice with a hint of doubt that broke the dead silence in the living room.
She did seem to remember the title. Even though it was only vaguely familiar, you could see that she was standing there holding Cathy's thigh, tilting her little head and thinking hard.
But she was still too young after all, so she was naturally even smaller when she first met Maka. Even if she really remembered the name, no matter how smart she was, she still wouldn't be able to match it with Maka's face.
However, everyone saw that she seemed to clearly know that this name was very important to her. While muttering "Maha Maha" to herself, she began to look around for it.
And this may be just an accidental state often seen in children, but it seems to have touched a certain same place in the hearts of everyone present - yes! Where is Maka now? What on earth is he doing? Was he in danger
The heavy concern and longing made everyone involuntarily purse their lips... A dull feeling quietly surged up from deep in their hearts.
At this moment, Willie looked at the little Delphi who was looking for a certain figure in confusion, and her heart moved slightly for no reason, as if she suddenly had an idea that even she felt was a bit unexpected.
"If...if she is really suitable."
…
Willy and the old housekeeper stopped at the refugee community. At present, this is actually just a trivial matter. Compared with the events that are happening one after another in the current chaotic situation, the most concerning, but really difficult to know, is obviously the development of the situation at the Devonshire Burrow.
In fact, after several alternating days and nights, the protective alchemy formation that Sarah had arranged in the Burrow was finally completed.
"Have Geofine and the others gone out?"
Sarah, who came down from the attic after working continuously for such a long time, looked no different from a few days ago, and there was not even the slightest hint of fatigue on her face.
Hermione and others who were staying in the living room downstairs were also surprised when they saw her casually patting the scraps of materials in her hands and walking down in a relaxed manner as if she had just spent more than ten minutes repairing the heating pipes. He could only shake his head speechlessly.
"Yes! In the past few days, the living corpses around me seem to be becoming more and more active... Oh, you should also know this."
"All I know is the situation in the north," Sarah walked over, sat down on an empty chair nearby, then shrugged and said, "You also know that I am not as good as when I was in Winchester. There are too many dolls, and it’s impossible to grasp the full situation.”
"Well," Hermione looked down at the map he had spread out on the table, and then said, "In short, the number of living corpses in the east has been increasing obviously and regularly, and their activity is also increasing day by day. I think... There may be more important discoveries in the near future. To this end, Miss Geofine and Mr. Blois have extended their exploration route during the day."
"In addition," she pointed to Weymouth, and then continued, "Neville's guardian spirit finally arrived at Weymouth this morning after several failed attempts. After a while, the news should be sent to Bill’s side—of course, that’s assuming that the remaining magic power isn’t consumed midway while it’s flying across the strait.”
Although there is no fog now, conventional apparation and long-distance magical communication are still not possible on this British land. And even if it is transported with the help of a magic spell with an actual carrier like the patron saint, there will still be greater losses than elsewhere.
It was already very difficult for Neville to use the advanced usage of the Patronus Curse created by Dumbledore, and if he was faced with such a bad spelling environment, the difficulty would be even higher.
Just like the previous attempts, the biggest reason for failure was not that the lion patron saint was blocked by flying zombies on the way, but the problem of continuously accelerating magic power consumption along the way.
If the magic power remaining in the patron saint's body is exhausted, then it will become impossible not to mention delivering the message, but even reaching the destination.
"If it still doesn't work, then let my alchemy doll go!" Sarah waved her hand and said, "Of course, we have to figure out the reason for the abnormality of the living corpse group you mentioned."
Having said this, she turned her head again and looked at Delphi who was sitting by the window.
"She sits there every day - I asked a few questions, but didn't ask anything." Hermione saw her looking over, immediately came to her side, and whispered.
