"Bill, did you... get any bad news again?"
On the evening when the first secretary of the federation went to the northern border of Belgium to ask for help from the Blois family, just as the golden sunset covered the shore of the English Channel, Lupine, who had just returned from the camp next door, saw something A somewhat familiar male wizard walked out of the command post camp.
Lu Ping still remembered that he was an intelligence officer who was supposed to stay in Germany to monitor the situation on the second battlefield. And since the other party appears here at this moment, it naturally means... I'm afraid there is a new situation happening in Germany.
Yes, and probably some not-so-good changes again.
Seeing that the other party quickly ran out of the camp and used the Disapparation Spell to leave after leaving the camp, Lupine did not try to stop the male wizard who seemed to be in a hurry, but went directly to the command post tent where Bill was located. Inside.
When he saw Lupine coming in, Bill, who was pacing back and forth in front of the table, finally stopped, frowned and shook his head.
"There are two pieces of news, one good and one bad!" He paused and said, "First of all, the defense line deployed by the Brandt family in the west has completely collapsed after all. The specific situation has not been found out. In short... not very optimistic. .Then the good news is that Madame Maxime sent someone to go to the Blois family to ask for help—just now, they agreed!"
In today's chaotic situation, every piece of information is hard-won. Bill's side can get these two relatively clear pieces of information very quickly. This is already the outstanding ability of the intelligence personnel at Camp Granger. Result.
As for what other details happened, he had no way of knowing.
"The Blois family in France supports the Brandt family in Germany... Well, it's unreasonable and expected!" Lu Ping couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this, "The head of the Blois family still has enough To be honest, I am not surprised that he can temporarily put aside his prejudices and help me."
"Yes, Mr. Blois is still very reliable." Bill also nodded, and then said, "But although this matter will definitely have to get his approval in the end, it is not him who actually makes the decision, but the one who A... you know Miss Willy Blois."
"oh?"
Seeing Bill say this, Lupine raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"I thought that after Mr. Blois returned, the child would no longer have to worry about doing these things, but it turned out that I had misunderstood something?" He said, seeming to be a little enlightened, "Combined with the previous initiative to go to the southern part of the Netherlands. Judging from the current situation, the Blois family may be preparing to change the position of the head of the family this time."
"At least it won't be too fast." Bill shrugged and said, "I hope that elementary school girl can control the situation over there! I'm not very familiar with her, I just remember that she seems... to have a good relationship with Maka? "
"It's indeed good." Lu Ping couldn't help but smile when he heard this. "Anything that can be related to that guy can now be directly used as a criterion for improving the evaluation. When everything is over in the future, can it be filled in?" Use your resume as capital to find a job?"
"The really great things are all on the other side now!" Bill pointed to the tent door casually, and also joked, his words clearly filled with hope for such a future.
However, such jokes can only be used to relieve the increasingly heavy atmosphere at present. No one can tell what will happen in the future.
"In short," after a pause, Bill returned to the original topic. "Since the retreat of western Germany will definitely make the situation in the entire Europe more chaotic, even if the Blois family has promised to provide support, I think The pressure on the Brandt family won't be reduced much... We also have to prepare!"
Bill's words were naturally intended to express his judgment. In fact, everyone knows that he has been hesitant about the next course of action for Camp Granger recently, and it seems that he has finally made a general decision at this moment.
"What about Harry and the others?" Lupine had obviously thought about these things a lot. Seeing that Bill had indeed extended the topic to this point, Lupine said at that time, "I know you have been Although we are always hesitating, we have never stopped investigating the other side... I have said before, no matter sooner or later, we must at least find Enns and Alexander!"
"Of course, that's for sure."
Bill had a headache when he mentioned those two boys.
To be honest, as far as Enns' personal combat ability is concerned, they are actually no longer qualified to worry about it. But as elders, Bill, Lupine and even Harry were worried day and night, wishing they could go directly to England to fight alongside them in the next minute. Those two guys who didn't make people worry even more. Anyone can't help but feel worried.
However, it is one thing to find someone, but it is another thing to prepare for new actions in response to changes in the current overall situation.
"And you have to go over to complete the Marauder's Map. You will have to go there sooner or later, and I won't stop you on purpose!" Bill scratched his head and said with some distress, "It's just... I think you should be clear with your foresight. The biggest problem now is not the other side, but the two 'second battlefields' in Germany - we can't let the defense lines collapse like this again!"
"I know," Lupine nodded understandingly, "So what you're saying is that we can't rely entirely on others over there?"
On the German side, the first to bear the brunt is naturally the Brandt family, who have almost no way out. Behind them, there is the ambitious Madame Maxime who hopes to do something about this disaster.
As for the Blois family, let’s not say what the current head of the family is thinking. At least Willy obviously hopes to take the initiative to fight against the invading enemies.
Under this situation, Bill now seems to have a hand in it, just hoping that the disaster will no longer spread in Europe.
It is a pity that even though there are such a group of powerful people who are willing to stand up to resist the disaster, there are still many more people who are still hiding behind and watching. Therefore, coupled with the enemy's offensives coming one after another, the force visible to the naked eye is so heavy that no matter whether they are standing in front or hiding behind, they have no confidence in their hearts.
"That's right," Bill nodded slightly and said solemnly, "So... what is lacking most now is probably an 'opportunity' that can affect the overall situation, and I... no, it doesn't matter whether it's me or not, I just hope that I can More people can step forward and become this 'opportunity'!"
It is actually very simple to say, but not everyone can do it.
