Chapter 898

The familiar horse path, the familiar iron fence gate, the more familiar lawn, lights, Christmas trees... And the outline of the castle covered by snow.

Even the sweet smell of Christmas pudding in the air rolls quietly between the mouth and nose with the wind.

Just in a flash, the gloom and desolation of Azkaban suddenly turned into the quiet and warm of Hogwarts. But at the moment, in Maka's heart, the warmth seemed to fall into the ice cellar.

"... how's it going? Are you surprised?"

A dull voice came out of the big lump of ice. If it weren't for the silence around, it would be hard to hear what was said.

Maka didn't answer.

He just raised the staff in his right hand silently and pestled it on the ground. The hard black stones then made a solid knocking sound of "Da Da".

There is no doubt that just at that moment, he, the rune array and even the black stone under the carved stone slab have all been transferred here

The so-called "here" is in front of the "Hogwarts School of witchcraft and Wizardry".

Maka licked her lips, and the tingling of her hair made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Yes -"

He glanced behind him, and the faint blue light had quietly disappeared... Many curved stone slabs had appeared thin and staggered cracks with the dissipation of magic.

"It's a surprise."

Before the words fell, Maka suddenly explored the staff, and the sudden floating spell suddenly threw the one person high ice lump into the air.

The next second, a dazzling beam of light that was almost burning emerged from the top of the staff and turned the ice and the people inside into frost white powder.

Unfortunately, some of the most important things in that lump of ice have already left silently.

"Hoo..."

I looked up and watched the heavy snow flying in the dark night sky. My face was also a little more cool after the snow was melted by the body temperature.

But at this time, Maka, what he wanted to see was not snow, but a boulder that was coming here.

To tell the truth, he really considered enough about this plan, and even the very low probability of "helbo seizing old Eun's body on the spot" was put on the alert.

But he never thought that halbo would forcibly "pull down" the running Rune array and move it all near Hogwarts with the magic of space movement.

Looking at the scene, if the space within the campus had not been reinforced by the founder, he was afraid that the formation would appear directly in the middle of the school.

But... Of course, for a meteor falling to the ground from the universe, such a distance is nothing at all.

"There are three months left."

Maka stood there and nodded, then waved to clean up the black stones and carving boards on the ground, and then repaired the messy horse path and lawn.

In three months, when the earth revolves to a fixed position, the huge stone from the universe will follow the established path into the atmosphere and fall here accurately.

In terms of the accuracy of the data given by Eun Ravenclaw, the error will not even exceed three feet.

Perhaps this will be the biggest crisis Hogwarts has faced since ancient times.

……

"Dudu."

There was a knock on the door. MEG, who was buried in sorting out the recent data, suddenly looked up.

"Please come in."

The last three days and two nights should be the most joyful time in the school.

Although it was late at night and the school court outside had stopped wandering, everyone should still play in the auditorium, or in some other classroom or corridor. Even the school professors were laughing with the little wizards at this time.

Who would come to the headmaster's office to look for her at a time like this?

No, it would not be too strange if the child would come before today. Unfortunately, now he has left temporarily.

With Professor McGonagall's "please come in", the door of the office opened.

"Good evening, Professor McGonagall."

"Marca?"

As you can see, MEG looked surprised. Because in her impression, Maka is a man who must practice what he says. Once he says it, he will certainly do what he wants.

Earlier, when Maka proposed the idea of temporary resignation, MEG had stayed several times, but failed to stay. But who knows that less than one night, he actually appeared in front of himself again.

"You're not..." MEG was stunned, and then said, "Oh, of course I hope you can stay - we can discuss some things together, and you don't have to bear it alone. But... How did you come back so soon?"

Maka turned and closed the door, then walked gently to the chair not far from the desk and sat down.

"Because some things don't need to be done anymore."

He said, but a bitter smile appeared on his face. You know, this expression is very rare in him.

"What happened?" McGonagall asked quickly

However, for Professor McGonagall's questioning, Maka didn't know where to start.

In the past, when Dumbledore was still there, Marca had a lot of communication with him secretly. For example, he had discussed with Dumbledore how to plan against Voldemort, and cooperated in a big play of prison escape.

But since Dumbledore left, it has been difficult for him to find someone who can really help him.

Although, Maka has never been the kind of person who needs to mention everything.

When no one could tell him what to do, he still struggled to solve many problems, and even settled the crisis that the devouring mirror almost destroyed Hogwarts alone.

But this time, some things have to be said.

"Professor," Maka said in a deep voice after a moment of silence, "please prepare for the evacuation of the whole school within three months."

"School evacuation?"

Hogwarts has never had a history of requiring teachers and students to withdraw from the castle. Even in the wizard wars of past dynasties, Hogwarts castle has always been one of the few last lines of defense in the British magic world.

There are all kinds of defensive magic left over from ancient times, as well as many powerful wizards. There have even been strong men who are famous in the world of magic on several occasions.

For Mileva McGonagall, who has always been proud of the school, the "whole school evacuation" is like "abandoning the family"... No, it can be much more serious than that.

However, since this sentence came from Maka's mouth, MEG couldn't help paying less attention to it.

"... why? Is this happening... No, I mean, what terrible thing is going to happen?"

When Maka heard the speech, she sighed slightly:

"About three months later, a huge stone flying from space to the earth will turn into a meteor and fall at the school gate."

"Space? Meteor? Hogwarts?" McGonagall said in amazement. "How did you know? Did any prophet make predictions?"

"No, there is no need to predict." Maka shook her head, "because I picked the meteor myself..."

To be honest, his words are more frightening than the sentence "meteors will fall at the school gate". If it wasn't him, Marca McLean, I'm afraid McGonagall would drive the speaker out of the principal's office.

"This... Why?" Professor McGonagall's chest stagnated and held it for a long time before he could speak strangely.

Not far away, Maka, sitting in a chair, leaned back on the cushioned back and thought about it. Then she opened her mouth again.

"Professor McGonagall," he asked, sitting up straight and somewhat seriously, "do you know a wizard named 'Eun Ravenclaw'?"

Marca still couldn't tell Professor McGonagall too much because some things were too much involved.

Therefore, he can only choose to take a lot of things casually, only select the information related to the meteor fall and carefully inform each other.

Such as the secret of old Eun's identity, Haier Bo's Horcrux, and the "star picking plan" to destroy the Horcrux with meteors.

Of course, there are terrible failures such as "lifting a stone and smashing yourself in the foot" in the near past.

In the final analysis, it's not complicated. It can be summarized in one sentence, that is, it was severely Yin by the cunning Haier Bo.

"... so now it seems that halbo tonight has been hiding his real purpose. At the beginning, he tried to disguise as Eun and was discovered by me, then showed his strength to force me to fight him, then induced me to block his action with the soul of old Eun, and let me start the last step of the formation when I thought I had the best time."

Maka believes that he is not wronged in losing this time, but the price is really too heavy.

After listening to his narration, MEG couldn't help asking:

"So, can't you change the trajectory of the meteor again?"

"Yes, yes," Marca said immediately, "but it's too late in time - I couldn't design the array until I had old Eun's data. But even with such detailed data, it took a lot of time..."

If you wait for the meteor to smash the land into ruins and then calculate the results, even if you can make a new rune array again, it is obviously useless.

"So..."

"So, in short, get ready to give up the castle! Then... I'll try my best to think of other ways."

Finally, Maka gave such a sentence, stood up, said good night and left.

MEG wanted to stop Maka and try to learn more about his ideas. But when MEG saw his tired side face, he just opened his mouth and let him disappear in silence at the door of the office.

"Alas..."
