The appearance of Buckingham Palace has always remained at the moment when Herbo left - the evil statues lining the square, the black thorny vines covering the walls, and the demons that seemed to emerge unbridled from every crack in the masonry. breath.
All corners, all details, all traces, everything is constantly emitting soul-shaking silent roars in this dead silence!
This former king's palace has long been turned into a palace of demons.
What is even more worth mentioning is that, once surrounded by fog, it has now completely revealed its ferocious appearance to the world as the gray fog rises.
Yes, this is Haierbo's residence, and it is also a place that can make countless people feel wary... and even fearful, even if he himself is not present.
After all, in addition to Haierbo, there are also a large number of living corpses produced by the demon summoning technique. All of them, headed by high-level living corpses given power by Haierbo himself, guard this place day and night, and... are wandering around waiting for their master's return.
However…
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a figure wrapped in electric light cut through the night sky at an alarming speed. At a moment when all the living corpses in the area were unable to react immediately, it penetrated the thorny wall of the palace extremely roughly. What followed was a deafening roar.
When a small number of high-level zombies who already had self-awareness were finally stunned, the tall and muscular figure had already appeared in the aisle in the center of the hall.
And appearing together with it was a skinny figure that was casually dragged in its hand. At first glance, he looked no different from a piece of rag with his limp appearance.
"boom."
As the flashing electric arcs all over its body gradually faded away, it was seen casually throwing aside the rickety demon in its hand, then stepped onto the steps and walked step by step towards the throne at the deepest and highest point of the dim hall. past.
There was no fighting, no blocking, and no killing—it was clearly not the only one standing in the hall. Almost all high-level living corpses were lined up on both sides of the aisle, but none of them took any action.
They were of different shapes, tall, short, fat and thin. After the initial shock, they all just lowered their heads and waited silently.
It was as if they had realized something.
And finally after a moment... the tall figure finally walked up to the throne. He stood there for a moment, then suddenly turned around, sat down lazily and nonchalantly, raised his left hand and placed it diagonally on the side of his chin.
The next moment, an invisible soul wave centered on it and spread out from it in an instant, sweeping across the huge Buckingham Palace.
"Tum—"
Immediately, all the living corpses within this range, no matter where they were, no matter what they were doing, no matter which direction they were facing, immediately turned around and crawled towards the throne.
There was no shouting and noisy sound, instead, there was a wave of magic power fluctuations like a tsunami, rushing quietly.
A new king sat on the throne of Buckingham Palace.
…
"Squeak-"
Late at night, the door of the Burrow was opened again, and then a series of familiar figures hurried in from the outside. Safina, Blois, Harry, Luna... none of them were missing. Delphi was helped in by Ginny and Hannah.
Obviously, everyone finally followed Delphi's advice and rushed back as soon as possible.
However, as soon as everyone entered the door, they saw that Sarah, who was responsible for staying here, had a very obvious serious expression on her face. It must be said that this look is relatively rare among Sarah, who always seems not to care about anything.
"What happened while we were away?" Harry asked quickly when he saw it, "Did something happen to Hermione?"
Originally, according to Hermione's own decision, before the incident of the two demons fighting each other was resolved, she had to leave here and retreat to the southwest. And in fact, she did.
Under the escort of several of Sarah's alchemy dolls, if nothing else happened, she should have arrived at a relatively safe place by now.
But looking at Sarah's expression, it could be that she was on the way to evacuate...
"No, Miss Granger is fine now, so don't worry about it for now." Sarah shook her head and said, "What happened... was London."
"Lun... so fast?"
Because Safina had just mentioned London before, everyone almost immediately thought of going there together—did that big devil really go to London
"What's so fast?" Sarah obviously didn't know what happened in the past two hours at most. "Anyway, the dolls I left in Winchester just noticed that there was a wave of fire in the direction of London. There was an extremely violent fluctuation of magic power... Although we still don’t know what exactly happened, but... whatever happens next, it will definitely be a big deal!"
Sarah's words could actually be almost as good as not being said at all, because an empty sign seemed unable to be used to judge anything at all.
However, her words made everyone present feel a chill in their hearts, and no one dared to look down upon her.
"Let's put the matter of informing parents back on hold first!" Ron said to Ginny behind him without looking back, "It's really... not reassuring at all!"
When he said this, a smile appeared on his face, but unfortunately, this smile was stiff.
"Um."
Ginny naturally had no reason to refuse, so she only responded softly.
Next to Ginny, Harry thought for a moment and then said:
"It just so happens that Neville's patron saint has returned just now - Neville, please deliver a new message to the Granger camp immediately! Ask Bill to prepare the first group of wizards immediately, and I will personally lead them on the march. Come. Also, ask Bill to inform Madam Maxim that we need to start urgently preparing a second batch of manpower."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Neville paused hesitantly and said:
"The incident about those two demons just now is too important. There are some things I didn't have time to tell you... In fact, there are some worse things in the news that Bill asked my patron saint to bring back. For example... Booth A living corpse appears in Barton, and Madame Maxime chases it... and both of them disappear."
"What?"
The person who reacted fastest and most to Neville's words was not Harry, who was planning to speed up the plan, but Mr. Blois.
