This is a genuine counter-offensive battle, because even if it is only the small group of vanguard troops sent out just to show off the following troops and adapt to the intensity of the battle, Hermione, as the commander-in-chief, has not hesitated to send out the following troops. All the intelligent zombies led by Rebes turned to the human side.
There is no doubt that the opening of the marching channel and the upcoming battle to retake Hogsmeade is a battle in Hermione's plan that must build confidence for our entire army. Even though this was just a tentative first battle, for the vanguard troops led by Samuel, there was actually no way out.
Of course, for Hermione and other decision-makers who already know that the road ahead is difficult, there is no retreat, they can only move forward, forward, and forward again!
Therefore, even the main combat forces such as Harry, Hermione and even Maka must be used in the subsequent battle to capture Hogsmeade Village, so for the time being they can only stay in the camp and wait for the first batch of main troops. arrived, but Hermione still sent Ron to show her determination to advance without retreating.
Even she herself will fight by herself with the flexible application of gravity rule rune cards on the battlefield.
"Ron!"
Looking at the red-haired young man who was about to rush to the front to open the battlefield as the first batch of combatants, but showed no fear, Maka stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
When the other party heard the sound and moved for a moment, then turned to look at her, Maka smiled at him.
"Take off your pants."
"ah?"
Ron subconsciously picked up his waistband, and the fighting spirit that originally appeared on his face was replaced by confusion and sluggishness.
…
The alchemical products born from Sarah's hands are different from her own, but there is never such a thing as "defective". Even if it is like the half-finished doll used to trap Haierbo's remaining soul, its unfinished and rough appearance is obviously due to its actual purpose.
Therefore, the prosthetic leg that Sarah spent a lot of time adjusting and modifying to allow Ron to stand up again was undoubtedly a fine piece of alchemy props.
This point has actually been reflected in several previous battles that Ron participated in.
In fact, as long as Ron can fully adapt, the alchemical prosthetic limb tailor-made for him by Sarah will gradually show even better performance - that is, Sarah used her to make a high-level alchemy doll. The lower limb parts were made from her experience, and her high-level alchemy dolls were specially designed to fight against high-level living corpses.
Therefore, it is definitely unrealistic to say that Ron can now face a real high-level zombie. But if he encounters a powerful enemy of that level on the battlefield, he only needs to use his legs well to escape.
"But now..."
Ron, who was breaking into the deep mountain forest with Samuel's vanguard, stamped his feet on the ground while running, and the dirt kicked up was thrown behind him by the soles of his shoes.
Facing the strong wind that hit his face, he subconsciously turned his head to his side and said:
"Man, I think I can kick a giant to death right now - huh? Where are you, man?"
Before he finished speaking, he looked back, only to find that the successor of the Rossi family had been thrown away by him, and was staring at him with a face full of dirt.
And then—
"Peng!"
With a muffled sound, Ron fell in front of a big tree in great embarrassment, letting him know that when traveling quickly in the woods, it was best not to look around.
When Ron struggled to get up from the ground, covered in dirt, a translucent shield-shaped barrier flashed in front of him for a moment, and then disappeared again. At the same time, the glowing ancient magic text on the upper edge of the arm shield on his left hand also dimmed its brilliance.
Obviously, if it weren't for this brand-new trigger-type iron armor spell with new carvings, he would have had to break a few bones when he hit the tree!
At the stall where Ron got up with a grimace, Samuel and Rebes, who were not really slow at all, had already caught up. Samuel, who stood still for a moment and returned to his lazy look, looked at him, shook his head and said:
"Mr. Weislai, you'd better adjust your condition as soon as possible. The enemy will come soon, and we won't be able to take care of you anymore..."
However, before Samuel could finish speaking, Rebes, who was still looking indifferent next to him, suddenly said: "It won't take a while, they are already here."
"Um?"
Samuel was startled when he heard this, and suddenly turned his head and looked forward.
"Didn't Mr. Potter say that the enemies are in the mountains a mile behind?"
Although he couldn't sense the enemy's presence like Rebes, who was also a living corpse, Samuel was not slow to react. His words were not so much a question as a casual complaint, because the next moment he immediately turned around and began to issue orders to the troops in the rear to prepare for war.
Here, Ron, who was standing upright while holding on to the tree trunk, also cast his gaze towards the forest ahead, and asked with a serious face: "How many high-level enemies are there among the enemies coming this way?"
"The first wave, one, further away, three."
Rebes gave the answer very concisely, and while speaking, he already stepped on the ground and suddenly rushed out. His speed was not slower than Ron just now, and even faster. .
The next moment, more than a dozen figures, high or low, quickly swept out from the vanguard team behind Ron. With a roar, they also rushed forward chasing Rebes, who was leading the way.
There is no doubt that these living zombies are born warriors born to fight. Except for those powerful demons who are like natural enemies, they are not afraid of any battle!
Ron, who was still standing on the same spot, saw this and looked back a few more times. After confirming that the vanguard had begun to accelerate according to Hermione's instructions, he also came out from behind the tree and ran towards the forest ahead.
Today, he is different from the past. Although he lost his legs, he has gained a new pair of legs and feet that were created by Sarah and Maka. Even if he is still not as good as his good brother Harry who holds the Sword of Gryffindor, he has become much more powerful now.
"Hurry up... I can get used to it... I have a hunch... it's about to happen." As he jumped like the wind and passed many trees in a thrilling manner, he said with a tense face. Ron, who was staring ahead, murmured in a low voice, "Look at me, Percy, you are watching us from the sky! This disaster will definitely end in our hands!"
The sound of fierce fighting resounded over the mountains in the blink of an eye.
