Chapter 740： Fog of war

Because they hadn't seen Voldemort's appearance for a long time, Ryan's spirit was extremely tight. In such a very stressful situation, Dumbledore would even often leave Hogwarts and head to the London front to avoid the loss of Voldemort when no one could withstand Voldemort after the frontline was attacked by Voldemort. Big.

Also because of the threat of Voldemort, Ryan and Hermione were often away from the manor during this time. They chose to spend most of their time on the floating fortress to prepare for reinforcement of various locations at any time.

In this state of mental tension, time came to May. At noon on the first day of May, Hermione walked into the observation room of the core magic tower on a silver tray with a plate of salmon sandwiches and a pot of black tea.

After the stone door slid open, Hermione saw Ryan was standing on a three-story stone platform in the center of the observation room. On this platform, a crystal ball larger than the head was suspended in front of him quietly. There were purple ripples afterwards.

The moment the ripples touched the wall, a pair of translucent pictures began to appear on the wall. Hermione recognized that these pictures were from downtown London and some were near Hogsmeade. There are still a lot of pictures where she doesn't know where.

"Have you eaten lunch?" After discovering that Hermione was carrying the tray, Ryan gently waved her wand, and the crystal ball immediately fell slowly, onto a white stone table engraved with runes. "It's really troublesome to get you here."

"It's okay," Hermione smiled and tapped the wall with her wand, and soon three slabs of high, two, and low heights protruded directly from the wall. A shabby tabletop and two face-to-face seats were formed, and then she put down the plate in her hand and picked up a sandwich, while handing it to Lion who had just walked out of the gate of the observation room.

After taking a bite of the sandwich in her hand, Hermione raised her head and asked Ryan who was drinking black tea sitting face-to-face with her.

"There are indeed many differences from the previous few days." Ryan nodded after putting down the cup of black tea. "For example, the activity of all Death Eaters in downtown London has dropped to a very low level, and even Diagon Alley and Overturn Alley have been abandoned yesterday. I saw that the personnel of the Hogsmeade Department of Magic had reoccupied this morning. These places. "

"What about Gu Ling Pavilion?" Hermione asked a key question. "Did the Ministry of Magic take over Gu Ling Pavilion this time? I hope they don't allow Gu Ling Pavilion to provide wealth to the Death Eaters as before."

"They have completely blocked the Gu Ling Pavilion now." Ryan said what he saw before, "but maybe because there are not enough people, they did not enter the Gu Ling Pavilion, but directly blocked the Gu Ling Pavilion. But you don't have to worry Fairies, they have a series of complex underground tunnel systems under the bank, and there are even places dedicated to growing mushrooms and certain plants, which can let them live for a long time. "

"For us, after this war ended, the Gu Ling Pavilion, which had been deprived of its coinage and monopoly power, was just an ordinary bank. This medieval-style bank would definitely not be a rival of modern banks."

"As for the risk of a goblin rebellion after depriving so many rights, this possibility will no longer exist after they bend their knees to Voldemort. For all intelligent creatures in this world, as long as they kneel once, they will remain in the rest of the time. Will habitually kneel down. "

"That is to say, all the Death Eaters in London are now hiding in the underground space of the Ministry of Magic to prepare for a final battle with us." Hermione raised her head and stared at Laine.

"Yes, the final battle will definitely be bloody." Lane nodded. "Because according to yesterday ’s investigation of the wizards in Diagon Alley, the Death Eaters used their shop to search a lot of materials before retreating into the Ministry of Magic, it seems that they plan to fight a real defense in the Ministry of Magic. War, not a one-touch collapse like now. "

"Seriously, a place like the Ministry of Magic is indeed suitable for a defensive battle." Hermione took a bite of the sandwich and said, "There are only a few entrances and exits and a complicated underground environment. If I bring a group of people together, I Certainly choose that place to defend. At least to avoid the embarrassment of everyone running after the war. "

"You're right." Ryan frowned at this point. "But I haven't locked the position of the mysterious man so far, even if I have almost filled the heart tree with Britain, and at the same time control many animals to monitor the land for 24 hours, which makes me very uneasy."

"How could there be no trace at all?" Hermione frowned. "I can understand if it is a mysterious person, but he also brought a part of a large number of Death Eaters plus a lot of materials and wealth. It is impossible for so many people to disappear inexplicably."

"From the information received from Principal Dumbledore, we can be sure that neither the mysterious man nor his men have left the UK. But we have not yet found the exact location." Ryan shrugged. "We all agree that there may be some secret bases in the UK that we do not know and are very concealed, and he and his running dogs are now preparing a large-scale attack plan at the base."

"This--very likely!" Hermione said slowly as she picked up her teacup. "Like our floating fortress, no one but us two knows it here, like a mysterious person. It's normal for a black wizard who has been ravaging a party for decades before to have a secret base that is also his own. "

"So that's why I haven't found him so far." Ryan, who had finished the sandwich, said with an open hand. "This kind of deliberately disguised place is difficult to find from such a large area of ​​the British Isles."

"But I'm also prepared for the worst." Ryan said, stomping his foot gently, and the ground immediately became transparent. Through the ground, Hermione saw one after another puppets grouping themselves into ellipsoids and stood there in a row quietly. Make sure that we always have a mobile unit that can stand up at any time. "

"I think 3000 puppets may not be enough." Hermione made his point. "This consumable is still a little better. With only 3,000, I worry that it may not be enough."

"Relax, I also thought of this." Ryan waved his hand, and a projection of a warehouse immediately appeared in the air. There were densely placed two-person armed steam robots, which were also equipped with steam machine guns on their bodies. A lot of magical plants in sleep. "These purely mechanical creations are not affected by magic, and after being strengthened by my alchemy, they also have a certain defense against magic attacks."

"Although these machines are indeed not as useful as those puppets, and they are easily destroyed by magic, but I have prepared a full 6000 in the folding space below the floating fortress. Under the circumstances, we can get enough time and cover for us. "

"That's good, as long as you have enough preparation." Hermione rubbed the position of her temple. Recently, Voldemort has been unable to hide the pressure on everyone, so after hearing that Ryan was fully prepared, she The expression seemed to relax a lot.

Just after the two had finished eating, they just wanted to take a break, and suddenly a tone sounded in the hallway.

"Someone is looking for us at the door of the manor, who will it be?" Hermione felt a little strange looking at the reminder rune floating in the air. "Who would come here to come here at this time?"
