Speaking of which, no one has actually entered this hall many times, and this is true even for the living corpses. Even the Living Corpse Twins, the siblings closest to their master in the Living Corpse Clan, would not come here easily if they had nothing important to do.
However, whether it is Hermione and others or the living corpse clan, their impression of this hall is generally bright and brilliant. Because the Lord of the Living Corpses doesn't seem to like places that are too dark. Every time he comes back here, he will take the initiative to light up all the torches on the pillars.
But this time, when the living corpse boy who acted as the guard of the temple door pushed the door open, everyone found that there was obviously not much light coming out of it.
"Please come in."
Perhaps seeing that everyone was not moving at the door, the living corpse boy immediately spoke again and urged harshly.
"Can't you... turn on the light?"
Ron muttered in a very small voice, but the next second he was pushed by Ginny beside him, causing him to shut his mouth completely.
Everyone knows that at this point, it is definitely pointless to just stand still at the door because you feel suspicious. Soon Hermione took the lead, and everyone took a deep breath one after another, and then walked towards the door.
After entering the hall, everyone discovered that there were actually no "lights on" in the hall. Although not all the torches on the pillars were lit, deep in the hall, there were still several pillars flickering with light. The air flow introduced by the opening of the palace door stirred the flames, causing them to float slightly, making the light appear a little uncertain.
But in this way, the figure located on the high throne in the deepest place suddenly became more difficult to distinguish.
And just as everyone gradually stood still in the middle of the empty hall, everyone was silent with their thoughts in mind. The living corpse boy who led them in had already walked quickly to the stairs leading to the throne, bowed briefly, and then turned around in the same speechless manner, standing still facing everyone.
It seemed that he was probably planning to silently monitor the group of humans in front of him for his master.
At the same time, Bai Ye, who had led everyone all the way here, took another step forward and said to the looming figure on the throne:
"Master, Miss Granger and the others are here."
When Bai Ye opened his mouth to report to the Lord of the Living Corpses, everyone immediately had no time to think about it. No matter where they were looking at before, they all turned their sights in the direction of the throne.
But then everyone discovered that the person who spoke to Bai Ye was not the Lord of the Living Corpses on the throne, but another figure standing beside him, the living corpse girl who was also one of the twins.
"Bai Ye, you did a good job. But you have nothing to do next, so just stay aside for a while!"
"oh."
Hearing the eldest sister's voice coming from above, Bai Ye nodded immediately, then immediately walked to the nearby pillar and stood there, curiously looking at Hermione and others who had been specially invited by the owner.
It seems that as she said before, she really doesn't know the real reason for tonight's meeting.
At the same time, everyone heard the voice ringing again, but this time the target was them.
"Distinguished guests," the girl-like young female leader of the foreign race said calmly, "First of all, please allow me to express my gratitude to Miss Granger and others on behalf of my tribe. We must thank you for helping our tribe kill our natural enemies. So that many of my kind can live and recuperate here - due to the previous cooperation agreement between us, you have also gained your own gains in each of these battles, so this is undoubtedly a belated thank you, but I still hope to express my gratitude in person. Thank you everyone.”
"It's nothing." Hermione finally responded at this time, "As you said, this cooperation is mutually beneficial, and it has been like this from the beginning, so you don't have to thank us."
However, the other party obviously didn't care whether Hermione accepted his gratitude or not. He didn't refute even when she saw her, and continued as soon as Hermione finished speaking:
"In short, judging from the results so far, with your help, even the tyrannical demons can handle it. Maybe... there will inevitably be some damage, but at least it is possible to kill all those demons. Sex is real.”
At this point, she paused slightly, probably to collect her thoughts.
"Especially today, the master has brought you and 'us' another good news - the demon 'Gluttony', who once appeared in front of you and then disappeared several times, has been found!"
As soon as she finished saying this, she saw Hermione, Harry and others in the center of the hall subconsciously turning their heads and looking at each other.
This demon named "Gluttony" is indeed not unfamiliar to these people. Long before they reached this cooperation with the Lord of the Living Corpses in slaying demons, they had actually met each other, and a few of them had even had close contact with each other, even if everyone didn't know it at the time. The name "Gluttony".
However, they kept passing by this demon who could be regarded as the first one they met. However, according to everyone's understanding, "Gluttony" has a special ability to move in space. This ability is absolutely powerful in this disaster place where apparation is impossible, so it seems that it is more or less acceptable to not be able to find the other party. fact.
After several discussions, everyone has already positioned this demon as a very difficult target to deal with. Except for "Jealousy" and "Sloth" that have not yet appeared, "Gluttony" is ranked as the last target to be dealt with.
At this moment, when everyone heard the "good news" that everyone was curious about tonight being told by the zombie girl, including Lu Ping and others who had just learned about it today, everyone's curiosity naturally became It became more and more intense.
Because the other party has not yet said where the current demon "Gluttony" is.
"Is the war finally going to start again?" Harry hugged the Sword of Gryffindor tightly in his hands and whispered secretly.
But at this moment, everyone saw that the living corpse boy who had been standing at the foot of the steps since he came in and had not made any movements suddenly made new movements...
This pair of siblings have obviously spent less and less time together recently. The younger brother has long since decided to regard himself as the main palace gate guard guarding the residence for the master, while the older sister seems to have completely taken over the important task of being the leader of the zombie clan.
During this period of time, the two of them were standing on opposite sides of the high stairs without saying a word to each other. But it's obvious that the tacit understanding between them has never diminished.
