Chapter 867

An English Muggle proverb says, "if you lie down with dogs, you will get up with fleas.".

Fortunately, generally speaking, Lupin is not worried about fleas. After all, he is still a wolf!

Unfortunately, fleas are easy to deal with. I'm afraid I'm afraid of Sirius's restless nature. Lu Ping had a bad feeling since he had a big fight in Haifa this time, so he sent back his request for temporary return with the ciphertext without saying a word.

However, in a short time, his injury did not allow him to use convenient mobile means such as phantom shape shifting and door keys. If they really want to go back, they have to wait at least another day or two.

But it was such a day or two that lupin and Sirius suffered.

According to Lu Ping's previous prediction, he thought that the International Federation of wizards would send personnel soon this time, but what he didn't expect was that Haier Bo's action speed was faster than that of the Federation.

Just the second night after the city fire, nearly 300 unidentified wizards suddenly appeared in the city center and spread out in pairs.

These wizards look like the small group of attackers before. Although they can't see their faces clearly because of their clothes, they are generally short in height.

But contrary to their bodies, they are strangely strange and powerful in the use of black magic.

From the experience that Sirius and lupin have fought with them, these wizards seem to be skilled in using silent spell skills, and their power is not generally powerful.

And, more importantly, those who hide their heads and show their tails use black magic that others have never seen before.

It's as like as two peas. But the one thing that makes people feel concerned is that the magic of these short witches is just like a print from a mold. It gives people the same feeling.

In fact, if the number were smaller, just like the last time there were at most 20 or 30 attackers, Sirius would not be too worried if he was prepared. The reason why lupin was seriously injured was actually because of the sneak attack.

But if there were more people

"... something's wrong outside. I just saw a lot of dark shadows flying in the air. I remember that when we were attacked last time, those Wizards of unknown origin could fly in the air without the help of anything."

At this time, Sirius hurried back from the window and whispered his discovery to lupin lying on the sofa.

"Are you sure those shadows don't use brooms?" lupin frowned. "It's cloudy tonight. It's so dark outside... Can you see it clearly?"

"Can't be 100% sure, but it should be right."

"What direction did they fly?"

Looking at Sirius's expression, Lupin was very confident. Naturally, Lupin would no longer doubt anything. Because most of those wizards were halbo's people, he naturally did not dare to neglect, and quickly sat up with some difficulty on the sofa cushion.

"It's to the southwest, maybe to the coast - that's not true," Sirius said immediately. "But I think they must come from the city center."

"How many people?" lupin continued softly.

When Sirius heard the words, he immediately confirmed the picture still left in his mind.

Without moonlight and stars, the night sky was really dark, but because those figures didn't fly high, he could barely distinguish them.

"A lot," he thought, "I can see at least ten people, maybe more... They passed by two by two, several pairs in a row!"

"Well..."

Lupin frowned and thought for a moment, but soon shook his head.

"What does Haier Bo think... He's going to get ahead of the team of the Federation and --"

"Clang!"

Lupin's words had not finished, but he was interrupted by a sudden crisp sound. The sound was accompanied by a large piece of broken glass and two dark shadows rushing in from the window.

"Bang!"

Because Sirius is still facing away from the window at the moment, Lupin sitting on the sofa is the first to react. The pain in his abdomen prevented him from standing up quickly, but it did not affect him to draw out his wand.

Suddenly, the cloaked wizard who rushed in front seemed to bump into an invisible force, and even the speed slowed down suddenly.

This is a very fast silent barrier spell!

I remember lupin was a professor of defense against the dark arts at Hogwarts. Maybe there were other reasons - for example, Dumbledore seemed to want him to contain Sirius, who suddenly escaped from prison at that time.

But it can be seen from today's skill that he still has his real ability as a professor.

However, the scope of an obstacle spell is not large. It is the limit to stop one at the moment when the other party just enters the house.

As soon as another attacker saw that his companion was trapped, he immediately shrunk up and took a half step to the side. Unexpectedly, he decisively regarded his partner as a human shield.

Followed by a thin black needle splashed on Lupin's side in the opposite direction.

Those black needles with the length of the index finger are all formed by unknown black magic. They fly fast and the tip of the needle is quite sharp. Once they pierce something, they will burst immediately.

Lupin and Sirius had seen this black magic last time, so they knew the power of this thing very well.

What's more, they didn't win this move last time. Is it still possible to work this time?

When Sirius turned around in a hurry and found this behind the scenes, his action was also fast. He waved his staff and pointed to the table next to him. Then he suddenly glanced in front of Lu Ping, and the table accurately stopped the magic black needle.

At the same time, Lupin was certainly not idle.

After rolling himself off the sofa with his aching abdomen, he lay on his back and stretched out his wand.

Even if there was a table in front of him, he couldn't see the scene in front at that moment, but he still recited the next magic spell according to the position in his memory.

Then I saw a flash of fire from the tip of his staff. It was undoubtedly a coma spell. But he still ignored the spell after it took effect, and delayed the release of the spell by more than a second in some way.

Don't underestimate this second. It's the time when the other party's black needle hits the table and causes an explosion. When a good table was blown apart by dozens of fine needles, Lupin's powerful coma curse quickly passed through large pieces of wood chips and went straight to the other party's place.

Because the dining table thrown by Sirius just now blocked his sight, the attacker obviously didn't notice Lupin's action. When he saw the flash of fire, it was too late to avoid.

"Bang!"

At the moment when the wizard was hit by the coma curse, he flew backward and hit the wall heavily.

Sirius and lupin were naturally not interested in enjoying each other's sliding down the wall. After they solved one with tacit cooperation, they immediately focused on the first one.

The attacker who had just started was already separated from the influence of the obstacle curse. Seeing that he raised his hand again, it was obvious that he was going to fight back.

Sirius saw this and put an iron armor spell on him. On the other hand, Lupin thought of the choice often made in the wizard duel for the first time.

But the moment he raised his wand, the sight he saw in the corner of his eye made him give up the idea - at the root of the wall by the window, the attacker who was "stunned" by the cooperation of the two stood up again!

"Go!"

Lupin was well aware of the strength of his coma spell just now. If he didn't make the other party fall into a coma at that time, it meant that the situation was bad.

Sirius was stunned when he heard Lupin's sudden reminder, but he didn't hesitate in his action.

Out of his trust in lupin, a close friend, he did not hesitate to give up the preparation for the next offensive spell, raised his wand and created a large area of smoke.

When the smoke was dispersed by each other, he and lupin disappeared into the living room.

The two attackers looked around here twice, but naturally they found nothing. The two who lost the target didn't seem to care, so they turned and left quietly.

Speaking, the two short wizards didn't seem to say a word from beginning to end.

……

Sirius and lupin certainly can't go far. They are actually hiding behind the sofa. Just because of the Xianyin potion provided by Maka, they successfully covered up their own existence.

This is the advantage of Xianyin potion. If you use other stealth methods such as phantom body spell, you may not be able to escape the two strange and treacherous attackers with magical ability.

"Cough, it seems that I really left..."

They waited in place for a long time. When they saw that the other party didn't suddenly return, they were a little relieved.

If we fight again just now, it must be their side that will suffer losses - after all, Lupin's current state can't support too complicated battles.

"Are you all right?" Sirius frowned with some worry.

But although lupin covered his abdomen with some pain, he shook his head decisively.

"I'm more concerned about the two attackers than this injury..." he said seriously. "You can see that these two tonight are obviously different from the last four. If you changed the last attacker, it's impossible to pick up my coma spell with my body so quickly!"

"Well," Sirius nodded, "what's more, there are more than ten guys like that just now..."

Lu Ping heard the speech, covered his abdomen and fell into meditation.
