Hogwarts Reading Days

After nightfall, large flakes of snow began to fall outside the house, and there is no sign of stopping until now.

The headquarters of the Defense Association, which was supposed to be bustling every day, seldom ushered in a moment of tranquility.

With a "creak", the wooden door of the living room was pushed open by someone's body, and Shanna, who came in with two cups of steaming coffee, put one of them in front of the young man who was sitting on the sofa reading a book, and she herself After taking a sip of another cup of coffee, he sat down on the sofa on the right side of the man, looked sideways at the magical wall clock on the wall, and said, "I didn't expect you to really not go with them."

"I'm not their nanny. It's good to stay here as their final guarantee." Albert closed the book after finishing the label, put it on the table, and picked up the steaming cup of coffee , took a sip, frowned slightly and said, "People always need to rely on themselves, and I don't think they will be in any danger. Tonight is just a small trial, and they will face greater challenges in the future .”

"The final battle?"

Shanna often heard Albert mention this matter, and all their efforts were to prepare for the final battle with the Death Eaters.

"At that time, we will also lose many companions, but this is war, and war will always be much crueler than we thought." Albert put down his coffee cup and turned his head to look at the blizzard that suddenly blew outside the window, " Those wizards who take it lightly will pay the price."

This topic is undoubtedly too heavy, and Shanna is a little out of breath. She knows that Albert doesn't like to lie, but... this is war.

I don't know how many members of the association are truly aware of the cruelty of war.

"We don't have enough funds!" She took a deep breath, trying to change the subject.

This is also a topic she plans to bring up with Albert.

"Our team is getting bigger and bigger, and our daily expenses are getting more and more. I estimate that the remaining Galleons you left behind will hardly last until next month. This is also related to our frequent celebration banquets. I think... ..."

"You don't need to worry about Garen's problem. I will talk to other rich wizards about it. I think there are still some people who are willing to contribute to the peace of the magic world, not to mention that our team doesn't need it." Continue to maintain it, and when this wizard war is over, the association will basically be disbanded."

If it wasn't for Shanna's reminder, Albert really wouldn't have realized that the association's galleons were running out.

In fact, it doesn't matter if you run out.

The biggest expense in the Association is food, and most of that food comes from the Muggle world.In the Muggle world, you need pounds instead of Galleons to buy food, and those pounds that are spent actually come from the part of the Muggle family that was killed by the dark wizards.After all, even Albert couldn't legally obtain a large sum of pounds in a short period of time. Using part of the wealth left by those brutally murdered Muggles and avenging them by the way is the easiest solution at present. "

Of course, most people in the association didn't know about it, and Albert didn't intend to let too many people know about it.

"I think the Christmas dinner should at least be a little richer than usual. I've already ordered a batch of butter beer, which should be enough for everyone." Albert noticed Shanna's complicated expression and comforted him: "This war will soon It's over, so don't worry about spending."

"It's hard to imagine you're planning to spend Christmas."

Shanna had expected this, but she couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. As the chief steward of the Defense Association, she knew more about the actual situation inside the association than most wizards.

They have no money at all, and it's unbelievable that the Defense Association can continue to maintain and grow to such an extent.You must know that the Defense Association does not only support their members. The wizards in the two major sanctuaries rely on the Association to provide help. Although they only provide food, it also requires a lot of money, and the Association can still hold on. , is simply a miracle.

"I don't know how everyone is doing now!" Shanna murmured to herself as she turned her head and looked at the wind and snow outside the window.

"They are better than you think. They are probably trying to eliminate those ghosts now, and they will come back later." Albert took another sip of coffee.

This thing is really bitter!

Albert guessed right. The members of the Defense Association were indeed trying to eliminate the ghost corpses hidden in the forest. There were more evil dark monsters than they expected, and they were randomly scattered in the forest in front of them. No idea where the Death Eaters got so many Muggle corpses to make Inferi.

In short, it is quite stupid to wander in the forest late at night where there are countless infernal corpses hidden. Those monsters may emerge from every corner at any time, and pounce on them and bite them madly.

Worst case scenario is that there are Death Eaters hiding in Infernal too, give them a break.

If you really lose your life because of this, it is simply not worth the loss.

But none of these problems can stop the members of the Defense Association, especially after being educated by Albert, the members of the association are very clear about what they should do.

Reasonable use of the tools in hand, making a loud noise to attract the nearby corpses to annihilate them.

It is undoubtedly a stupid thing to step into the enemy's trap actively. Even if they have prepared various black magic detectors, they still need to take a lot of risks. Throwing a pathfinder is the best way.

And this is not difficult for the members of the Defense Association who have already prepared. They have already prepared in advance the cheap clothing store dolls to attract firepower and make a lot of noise around them, and they only need to hide behind and adapt to the situation .

Their real enemies are the Dark Wizards, not the Inferi in hiding.

However, they soon discovered that there were probably no Death Eaters here, let alone dark wizards, and the only things that attracted attention from the dolls were some snow-covered corpses.

And these things just popped up, and they will be easily dealt with by the members of the association who came over soon, and the corpses will be turned into wood to dispose of them.

In the final analysis, this is just a trap specially prepared by the Death Eaters to make trouble for them. It is not right to say that it is a trap, but it may be more appropriate to say that it is a target used to attract their attention. They want to completely clean up the forest. Yin corpse, I don't know how long it will take, it is completely a thankless task.

Maybe a few more people would have to die in the meantime, and that's what the Death Eaters would love to see.

Because the speed at which the other party cleans up the corpses is definitely not as fast as they made them.

However, the Death Eaters didn't know that Alecto Caro who made this suggestion was actually one of Albert's people, and this so-called trap was completely a training place specially prepared for members of the Defense Association. Denying that clearing this forest will take a lot of time, it will also give them a good chance to practice combat, and it will be relatively safe.

Of course, the Death Eaters don't have to suffer, at least they don't need to worry about being troubled by the Defense Association in a short period of time.

This simple trap successfully stalled Albert Anderson, buying precious time for the Death Eaters to wait for the Dark Lord to return to England and relaunch their counterattack.

"If it's a trap, we're going to be in really bad luck."

After knocking down the last Inferi, Fred talked to the girl beside him.

After guessing that there might be no dark wizards here, the original team has been split into four teams, and they disperse actively to clean up the corpses hidden in the forest from all directions.

"Actually, we can set fire to burn this forest." Someone said maliciously, "At that time, we won't even have to dispose of corpses."

"Don't be silly, Albert sure doesn't want us to do that."

They turned the corpses into logs and collected the logs before continuing on into the forest.

Wait until the amount of wood in the non-marking stretch bag is large, and then set a fire to burn them to ashes.

Similar battles are still taking place in this forest. I don't know if it is because the Death Eaters hid the corpses in the snow. The reaction speed of these corpses is slower and stiffer than expected. The only trouble is It's just that these guys are very hidden, and it takes more time to attract them and deal with them.

It was also thanks to the use of dolls to explore the way, otherwise the situation would be really hard to say. Many members of the Defense Association are considered newcomers, and tonight's actions undoubtedly gave them a lot of inspiration.

"Go back, it's already late!"

There is no distress signal, which is probably the most satisfying part of Cedric's operation tonight. Although their team spent an hour and only killed [-] infernal corpses, the overall harvest is not bad, at least everyone can get a share. Two or three heads.

Yes, that's right.

These damn things now need to be killed separately.At least for the first time, it needs to be done to ensure that all members of the team can actually face these dead bodies.

To be honest, the ghost corpse is quite scary, especially in the environment of late night, forest, and silent snow. For some girls, it is indeed a big challenge to their courage.

Perhaps, tonight's action seems like a farce to some people, but everyone has to admit that fighting in such an environment, most of the members can get a good workout, especially in the hands After some achievements can be used to brag to everyone, everyone's enthusiasm for eliminating the corpses also began to rise.

The only minor flaw was that a few unlucky ones were injured, but they were all dealt with properly.

Although the claws and teeth of the corpse are not poisonous, they are definitely not clean, so it is really necessary to eliminate them urgently.However, no one really took this matter seriously. Under the urging of their respective team leaders, everyone returned to the headquarters unsatisfied, and talked about the operation that happened just now.

This night, many members of the association stayed up all night excitedly.
