After witnessing the nuclear explosion, there was a new round of rush. Without knowing the actual situation on the other side, no one would dare to go there at this time, so everyone could only immerse themselves in preparations—be more prepared.
However, the fact that Ron's life or death was uncertain was also lingering in the hearts of all the friends, making them feel more and more restless and breathless.
So, another day and night passed extremely slowly amidst everyone's busy work.
However, Hermione and others in the camp did not expect that just when they were about to temporarily separate and return to the rear, they tried to contact and mobilize more manpower to supplement their combat power as much as possible, and made the last effort to return to the UK and find Ron. While they were busy... three figures, carrying a large piece of cold ice, appeared in the open space outside the entrance of the camp without any warning and extremely unexpectedly.
"Ron... are you okay? Are you-"
Hermione, who was holding a broomstick, and the rest of the group were walking out of the central area of the camp, but before they reached the door, they saw the face that was being questioned outside the entrance by several guard wizards.
There was no doubt that that was the face of Ron that they were familiar with - although Ron's face looked very bad when he appeared outside at this time, Hermione and Ginny discovered right away that at least Ron's body was still intact. , and could still stand on his own without seeming to have suffered too much damage.
Yes, as long as you are still alive, then everything will be fine! The moment she confirmed that Ron seemed to be fine, Hermione breathed a sigh of relief like Ginny and others, and showed a slightly relaxed smile.
However, before the smile could fully bloom, the other two figures following Ron immediately caused the joy on her face to fade away.
Perhaps it was because they had been too concerned about Ron's life and death in the past two days. As soon as Ron appeared in the field of vision, everyone's attention was attracted by his presence.
However, let alone Ron, even if the Veela, whose talent is charm, dances and sings to her heart's content, she can't keep everyone's eyes on her.
"Living corpse!"
At that moment, Hermione was the first to react and suddenly reached out to stop Ginny and others around her from moving forward.
Although the pair of living corpses behind Ron had their faces slightly lowered, they looked very low-key. The clothes on their bodies seemed to have been specially changed, and they were no longer as ragged as most of their kind. But no matter how low-key they are, their dry, pale, and chapped skin is a distinctive feature that no one who is careful enough can ignore.
In fact, the wizards guarding the door all recognized Ron, but they also obviously noticed something was wrong with the two guys behind Ron, so they refused to open the door and let them in.
not to mention…
"...Mr. Weasley, what on earth is this... this big block of ice? You must explain it clearly first... Also, we have sent someone to notify Mr. Bill Weasley. Please wait a moment and trust him. I’ll come out to see you soon.”
The foreman of the guard was explaining to Ron and trying to ask more questions. It's a pity that although Ron and the two figures behind him stayed at the gate and waited quietly, it seemed that he hadn't been able to say a word yet.
"Ginny, please stay here first, don't be impulsive... Harry, Delphi, please accompany me to see Ron's condition!"
In fact, now, no matter how surprised Ginny is by Ron's appearance, she at least has a certain degree of awareness and understanding of the current situation. Hearing Hermione say this, she finally nodded silently and stopped moving forward excitedly.
Not long after, Hermione, Harry and Delphi, who were getting darker and darker, arrived at the gate.
The magic barrier across the door has not yet been removed. Hermione and the other three people just walked through the barriers that served as the door, and their eyes couldn't help but wander back and forth on Ron and the twin living corpses.
"Luo... um?"
Because Ron's appearance right now really looked like he had been severely tortured by a magic similar to the Cruciatus Curse, and he looked completely lost. Hermione was very concerned about whether he was under the threat and control of the two guys behind who were suspected of being zombies.
However, what surprised Hermione and the three of them was that as Hermione's relatively close call sounded, Ron, who had been unresponsive just now, seemed to have suddenly regained his consciousness and suddenly turned his head towards her. Looked over.
"Hermione...Hermione..."
"boom!"
The wand in Ron's hand was still half-raised, trying his best to keep the ice coffin floating a few inches above the ground from falling to the ground.
But probably because after hearing Hermione's voice clearly in his ears, his long-tightened spirit suddenly relaxed. When the floating spell dissipated, the ice coffin covered with hoarfrost finally fell heavily. fell to the ground.
"ah!"
Ron, who suddenly reacted, subconsciously reached out toward the ice coffin in front of him. It's a pity that this ice coffin, which seemed to have always symbolized a certain persistence in his heart along the way, has finally fallen to the ground. And it seemed that he no longer had the strength to cast a second spell—even if it was just a basic spell like the Levitation Spell.
"Hermione...Maka, Makata..."
Hermione is cautious, or in other words, after experiencing so many changes and experiences, Hermione has become more and more mature and calm in situations. And until she heard Ron finally speak, although she was excited, she was still suppressing her emotions as much as possible in the hope that she would not be confused by the possible conspiracy.
However, no matter how hard she forced herself to calm down, when Ron said the name "Maka" in his hoarse and trembling voice, she still couldn't hold it back.
The next second, Hermione waved her wand to remove all the magical obstacles and protective spells in front of her, then spread her legs and walked quickly towards Ron. Harry and Delphi, who were beside her, saw this and hurriedly followed her, holding wands and swords respectively.
After Hermione walked up to Ron, she reached out and grabbed Ron's clothes and pulled him aside. The wand in her right hand instinctively pointed at the two figures behind her, but her eyes completely stayed on Ron's face. superior.
"Maka? What's wrong with Maka? What happened?"
While Hermione was asking questions impulsively, both Harry and Delphi rushed to the side and watched the twin living corpses. But the peripheral vision of both of them drifted towards Ron involuntarily.
Everyone wants to know what is going on.
