"Is this all we can do and wait?"
After watching Maka and Harry's figures pass through the empty vestibule, they plunged into the black fog at the main entrance of the castle. Some of the remaining people were still calm, but people like Hannah quickly fell into In a kind of restless anxiety.
There is no way to stop in such a place where you can catch a glimpse of a large number of enemies close at hand when you turn your head. It is probably an impossible task for ordinary people. What's more, now I have to secretly worry about my companions who went to investigate first.
If not for the fact that almost everyone here has a tough nerve that has been tempered for a long time, I am afraid that they would have been lost long ago.
"Let's just think of it as the rest time before the war!" Ron on the side said to Hannah who just spoke, "Even if Maka and Harry go to explore first, we don't have to step into the unknown darkness right away, but it's obvious , we have to go sooner or later... Besides, don't look at those guys outside now if they don't come in, who can guarantee that they will never come in? For the battle that will come sooner or later, we should take advantage of this rare opportunity to have a good rest. Take a rest!"
As he spoke, he simply stopped squatting and sat down on the soft grass. Even though there was a crowd of hostile zombies outside the iron fence next to him, including various high-level and demonized individuals, he still showed a leisurely and contented look.
"Anyway, we are finally back to school, right?" Ron leaned against the bushes with his legs crossed, squinting at the gloomy and low leaden clouds, and muttered to himself, "Come to think of it, we seem I haven’t graduated yet! I don’t know if I can still get my certificate in the future…”
"Don't think about it. How many subjects do you think you can pass now?" Ginny, who was squatting aside, glanced at him and showed a look of contempt that she hadn't seen in a long time.
But Ron was a bachelor. Hearing this, he immediately shrugged and said:
"The written test scores for each subject are definitely going to explode on the spot... Ah, so what Maka said back then was so accurate! 'We are all Hogwarts, Hogwarts forever. ', I'm afraid this is really going to happen..."
"Ron, Ginny, stop chatting there! Something doesn't seem right outside."
Suddenly, Neville, who had never forgotten to monitor the movements of enemies outside, interrupted the conversation between the two in a rather urgent tone. After everyone heard this, they turned their heads and looked outside the fence wall behind them.
Neville was right. Originally, it was probably because the entire campus was enveloped by some unknown force, so that after everyone came in, the living corpses outside could not sense their existence, so most of them gradually became quiet. . But at this moment, the enemies, who at best just started crowding around each other and wandering around in disorder, acted strangely again.
"They seem to be... pushing to both sides?" Neville frowned, "It feels like..."
"It feels like I have to make way for something!" Hannah took over the conversation tacitly.
"so what?"
Not far away, Safina, who said this in a casual tone, said this, but her palm was already holding a twisted black flame.
On the other side, Ron raised the rune arm shield forward more directly and whispered:
"I think we'd better step back to the side, further away from the gate."
Regardless of whether the visitor is still a zombie, at least the "forbidden zone" of the school is probably useless to the other party. After all, judging from the movements of the zombies outside, the other party is obviously coming straight towards the gate!
Everyone who felt that Ron's words were indeed correct immediately retreated step by step along the iron fence wall, and then...
"That's... a 'person'?"
As the group of living corpses crowded to both sides little by little, several figures finally came out one after another and arrived at the fence gate that had been re-closed by Maka.
But the appearance of those visitors really made it difficult for Neville and others who were trying to identify their identities.
These guys were all relatively well-dressed. One of them was wearing a pair of high-waisted pants and a shirt, which are very popular in Muggle society at the moment. He also wore a delicate silver watch on his forearm with the sleeves rolled up, which was simply stunning. People suspect that guy is just an ordinary Muggle who is on the cutting edge of fashion!
However, the deformations that can sometimes be seen on their obviously gray and dull skin repeatedly tell everyone about their abnormalities - look at the watch just mentioned! Its metal watch strap is about to burst from its swollen and thick arms!
Of course, more importantly, their eyes are obviously shining with wisdom!
"Are there really intelligent living zombies in this world other than Rebes and the others?" Ron whispered to himself in surprise, "Or are there finally humans who can maintain themselves after becoming living zombies?"
At the same time, everyone else subconsciously turned their heads and glanced at Rebes and his party at the back, as if to see their reaction at this time.
But Rebes, the leader, quickly shook his head.
"Those ones are still of the same race as us, and... although 'they' seem to have wisdom and self, they are still different from us - 'they' neither have our emotions nor have they evolved to our level. The power that should match. It’s like...our inferior product..."
At the end of the sentence, Rebes's tone, which rarely fluctuated, became a little deeper. Not to mention why he felt unhappy about this, at least it can be seen from here that even though he has always been self-repressed, he is indeed a living corpse with emotions.
However, after a brief pause, Rebes immediately put away his slight disgust and added calmly:
"Also, I would like to remind you that the one in front of them is quite perceptive."
"Well, we've found it!"
As Ron said this, he sighed, because he had already deeply felt the cold gazes cast straight towards him.
Then came the second pair, the third pair, the fourth pair...
"That's what I said just now! But to be honest, at least until Harry and Maka come back, I don't want to start fighting in this vestibule at all!" He muttered through gritted teeth.
Unfortunately, the next moment he finished saying this, there was a "squeak" sound... The tall and big Hogwarts vestibule door was just like when they entered, and was grabbed by the leader. Pushed away.
