It is undoubtedly a very difficult thing for a group of ordinary people to calmly accept a group of "others" with terrifying appearances.
Even if the people who can come to the Granger camp now are not ordinary people, what they have to face is, after all, a group of terrifying living corpses that were definitely enemies rather than friends not long ago.
What's more, there are still quite a few Muggles among this group of people.
However, the monstrous disaster was just around the corner, and Hermione had indeed figured out the thoughts of most people present. In such a critical period when combat power is urgently needed, this group of people who have been pushed down their psychological bottom line by the huge pressure of breaking the defense line again and again cannot refuse such a powerful additional boost after all.
Therefore, Hermione did not convince them, but she also convinced them - at least until the disaster was completely eliminated, no matter how much she resisted in her heart, she still nodded on the surface.
As for whether we should incorporate these intelligent zombies into society in the future, just as we have accepted goblins, hags, and vampires in history, or simply give them some territory in the same way we dealt with giants, fishmen, and horsemen. Then let them take care of themselves and govern themselves, and we will talk about it then!
In fact, if you think about it carefully, even those dementors who are feared by everyone in the magic world can arrange a job for them to guard prisons and barely coexist peacefully. Now that there is a batch of special living corpses that can talk normally, it doesn't seem to be the case. What a big deal.
Not to mention, if you think about it from a fundamental perspective, there is indeed a "close connection" between living corpses and humans!
Of course, the above is only for the wizarding community. For Muggles to gradually get used to and accept it, Hermione, who hopes that she can eventually facilitate this matter, still has a long way to go.
Watching the group of high-level intelligent zombies that finally met the human side for the first time and had not yet collapsed, led by Hermione and the leader Rebes, walked in chaotically under the anxious gaze of a group of wizards and Muggles. In a tent next to the open space, Maka's eyes flashed slightly with a calm face, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
…
Maka didn't let too many people know about the capture of Haierbo's remnant soul. But after all, this was a matter of great importance, and he did not deliberately hide it in front of the few important people on the human side in the Granger camp.
Now that Haierbo has been captured, in the subsequent counterattack to the birthplace of the disaster - the lost territory of the old Britain, new problems will arise, both in terms of the resistance to the march that will be encountered and the key points that must be resolved. Variety.
"This is... the famous ancient dark wizard?"
Looking at the half-finished puppet placed haphazardly on an old armchair, Mrs. Maxim was a little confused and a little hesitant, but she was also subconsciously on guard.
Apart from her, the Rainforest Witch of the Viseu family and the butler of the Matuseyevich family actually had similar expressions. Only the old wizard of the Rossi family remained calm. of peace.
As for Harry, Ron and other friends who were also present at this time, their expressions were much richer.
"You said that Haierbo's soul is inside this puppet?" The speaker was Ron, who was standing next to the door. After glancing at Maka, he stared at the rough puppet again and said, "This … Is it reliable?”
Everyone present knew exactly what Ron was referring to by "it".
And just after Ron finished speaking, the old head of the Rossi family stroked the white beard under his chin, looked at the doll and said:
"Although it is a semi-finished product, but... this should be an alchemical creation, right? The wood has been treated with alchemical drugs, and there seems to be a very clever alchemical formation hidden in it... "
Having said this, the old wizard turned his head and looked at Maka, and said in admiration:
"I didn't expect that Your Excellency has such profound attainments in alchemy. It really makes an old man like me feel ashamed and lament that a lot of time has been wasted!"
After hearing this, Maka smiled and waved her hand.
"This is not what I did. I have no talent in alchemy." He said, pointing to Sarah who was sitting in an inconspicuous corner. "She is the maker of this alchemy doll. She studied under Philip. S. von Hohenheim's contemporary master of alchemy—the 'alchemical cage' that can trap the remnant soul of Herbo was made in her hands."
"Miss Hohenheim...?" Old Rossi looked in, but saw Sarah sitting in the corner who didn't seem to be interested in saying anything, so he just nodded to her, "I see."
In the magic world, the Hohenheim family is still somewhat famous. Not to mention the three major families, even Madame Maxime is unlikely to know about it.
But why did the already lonely Hohenheim family suddenly have such an "alchemy master" who looked like a little girl? Several people still had questions in their hearts.
Of course, this is obviously not the time to pursue these matters.
And just when everyone's attention was slightly distracted, Harry, who was also standing at the door of the camp, right next to Ron, suddenly took a step forward and said with a frown:
"Let's talk about what to do with it first!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's thoughts naturally turned back, and everyone's eyes also returned to Maka.
Although there were several people present who still had doubts about whether Haierbo's soul really existed inside the doll, with the abilities of the wizards gathered here, they were naturally able to more or less detect what was contained within it. That evil, dark, creepy aura of black magic.
If there is really a ball of Herbo's soul trapped inside, then Maka, as the one who managed to capture it, naturally has the right and responsibility to decide how to deal with it.
What's more, he is the one with the strongest magic ability here now.
However, soon, what stunned most of the people present except the old head of Rossi's family was Maka who smiled and shook her head again.
"Sarah is the one who caught Hale, and it will be Hermione who decides how to deal with it - I am only responsible for moving my hands, so don't look at me like this."
The next moment Maka said these words, Hermione, who had just settled the group of "living zombie friends" on the other side, walked in from the entrance of the camp.
"What?"
She had already heard what Maka said about her outside, but she obviously didn't hear everything. Now she saw so many pairs of eyes in the camp focusing on her face, and she couldn't help but feel confused.
"I mean," Maka looked at her and said, "Helpo's remnant soul has been captured, and we are discussing how to deal with it. I think it is most appropriate for you to decide this matter. .”
