Chapter 1176

Hermione and the rest of them left school with a phantom shape shifting spell.

Up to now, even Ron has been able to move himself from one place to another, so apart from Ginny in the first grade, Hermione and Luna are not to mention.

Of course, because Ron is far from being proficient, in order to prevent him from losing an arm or something when he appeared in London, he and Ginny were taken to follow the appearance.

However, when the four people suddenly brightened up and found that the down-to-earth feeling had come back, the surrounding scene stunned them.

"This is... Where is this?"

Ginny looked around blankly and found that the place where they were now should have been a lavender field.

You can see that the clumps of grass stems at your feet are green and green, interspersed with some small clusters of indigo purple flowers. It must wait until the lavender flowering period comes after June, and here will be completely occupied by the bright purple. At a glance, it must be beautiful.

But why should we say that this "should have" been a lavender field?

Because Ginny, they now see that half of the flower field is still verdant lavender plants, but the other side has long been shrouded in the unknown fog.

Just a little look up, you can see that the fog from London is unusually dense. It is like a dense gray barrier standing in front of everyone, so that you can't even see the towering buildings in London.

And it is now that the "wall of fog" is actually still spreading out a little bit.

Just because it has covered too much area, the diffusion of fog has become too slow, so that it is difficult to detect and feel that it is still moving by human feeling alone.

"Here... It should be the bansted area in the southern suburbs of London..." Hermione, who is most familiar with London, glanced roughly. "I remember there is a large lavender manor here."

"What's wrong with the phantom shape shifting spell?" Ron said with a slight worry. "Oh, okay! I just said... You know, I can't use it well."

"Obviously it's not the magic spell that went wrong," Hermione shook her head. "Even if the phantom shape shifting spell goes wrong, we won't go wrong together! So... There should be something wrong with the space itself..."

As she was saying this, she suddenly glanced at the dense fog shrouded downtown London, quite dignified:

"Therefore, I think it's needless to say. It must be this strange fog that repels us who try to appear directly in it!"

"Sure enough, it was Haier Bo who did it?" Ron Dang even took a deep breath. "He actually shrouded the whole city with this fog... Should I say that he is worthy of being a black wizard who can spread his name to today?"

"It's not what we should care about now," Hermione pursed. "Since the story about him has long been unknown, it's meaningless for us to think about it. Therefore, what we should consider now is how to find your family as soon as possible!"

"Oh, yes!"

Hermione's voice dropped a little. Ron and Ginny looked at each other. They both saw the worry in each other's eyes.

"Let's go!"

In the half lavender field without fog, Hermione thought a little and quickly took a shortcut:

"Let's go to Diagon Lane first - although Percy may not be there anymore, as long as he has been there, we should be able to find out about his whereabouts."

"Well," said Ron, nodding his head and stepping away eagerly, "at least the fog doesn't seem to hurt people. After all, Percy mentioned in his letter that Dad spent the whole night in London, but he returned home safely the next morning."

"Wait! It's better to be careful!"

Hermione grabbed his back collar and pulled him back two steps, covering his neck and coughing for a while.

"I have some poison filtering masks used in herbal medicine classes. Although they may not be effective, they are always much better than no protection!"

Luna watched as she took out a whole stack of bowl masks from her bag and began to distribute them to everyone. She reached out to take one and asked curiously:

"Hermione, where did you buy that satchel? It's like the leather pockets hanging in Marca's waist. It feels like everything?"

"I tried to do it when I practiced the traceless stretch spell."

After giving out the mask, Hermione stuffed the rest back into her bag, and then waved her hand immediately:

"Don't compare my playing bag with Marca's, who knows how many times he has folded the stretching spell in his pockets?"

While answering Luna's questions casually, everyone had put on their masks, and Hermione put on a pair of masks for herself.

"OK! Then... Let's go to Diagon Lane first!"

……

After entering the fog, Hermione found that the gray fog was much thicker than she thought.

Walking among them, just a little farther away, I can't even see the ground, as if I were in a strange dream.

Fortunately, however, during the journey to downtown London, we did not find that the density of the fog had increased, as if the fog had no center and edge.

To be honest, they all felt a little relieved - they thought that the more they went into the city, the thicker the fog would become! After all, if the fog were thicker, wouldn't it be invisible in the end?

However, Luna was not among those who were slightly fortunate.

"I don't like the fog!"

She twisted her mouth in the mask and seemed to shrink her neck.

When Ron heard the speech, he frowned and waved his arm, looked at the unmoved fog and said:

"Hey! How many people will like it?"

Of course, Ron is right. Who else would like this strange fog that has seriously affected people's normal life except Haier Bo and others?

However, what Luna wanted to express at this time was not what he said.

In fact, the London fog has at least another effect that ordinary wizards can't feel - it will disturb the magic wave.

Since the day when Luna can feel the magic, after such a long run in, she has actually adapted to the feeling of being in the magic. But now in the fog, the natural magic wave suddenly lost its due law, which made Luna feel very uncomfortable.

Think about it, for ordinary people, if their normal vision suddenly becomes chaotic. Even if that's not enough to affect normal viewing, I'm afraid few people will feel very comfortable.

Fortunately, Luna's adaptability may be her greatest advantage. Although she only feels uncomfortable, it doesn't make her unbearable.

The only pity is that her magic sensing ability, which had become more and more acute, was obviously greatly reduced in the fog.

Otherwise, she will make everyone avoid a lot of trouble in advance in the fog today

As they walked along the road in the thick fog, Hermione, who seemed to have been thinking about something since she came in, turned back coldly.

"Ron," she kept asking at her feet, "I remember there are many entrances to the Ministry of magic in London, and there should be talents around here - did your father mention the guest entrance of bansted?"

"Well, I really don't know that," Ron shook his head. "I think you know, too. When Dad came home from work, all he had left in his head was the Muggle items he collected. Where are you still in the mood to mention work? Why, are you going to go downtown from the Ministry of magic?"

"Anyway, it's definitely impossible to walk like this. It's at least ten miles from here to the broken cauldron bar!" Hermione thought. "And... Although I have a flying broom, it's a pity that there's only one, which is not enough for the four of us!"

Obviously, because they didn't expect such a big deviation in phantom development, they were almost unprepared before departure. Even if Hermione carried a broom, it was just a habit she had always left with Luna for competition practice.

"Why don't you... Go back and get it first?"

Even though Ginny was anxious, it seemed that there was a problem, but it had become a fact. In order to get to Diagon Lane earlier, it seems to be the best choice to go back to school before going too far in the fog.

But Hermione suddenly shook her head when she heard it.

"No, I have another way to get to the city faster! It's just this way... I think you may have to suffer a little -"

"What can I do?" Ron said immediately. "Just say - I can suffer any crime as long as I can find Percy and them earlier!"

"Yes!" Ginny nodded quickly.

Hermione looked at Luna again, then patted the bag around her waist and motioned to everyone.

"You see, my bag is sealed with a pull rope, and its opening can actually be pulled very large..." she said, "with the space in which the traceless stretching spell is applied, I think it's no problem to put you all in... Well, it may be crowded, and there's never been any arrangement in it, so I'm sure I can't stand."

"Oh..."

Ron blinked - he never dreamed that he would be packed and taken away by Hermione!

However, when Luna heard it, she was a little depressed. Her eyes suddenly stared and clapped her hands happily.

"Oh! That sounds like fun!"

"Hmm..." Hermione saw her cheerful expression and felt guilty. She immediately didn't know where to go, "well, just be happy..."
