It was a battle doomed from the beginning.

Buckingham Palace collapsed in half, the Statue Square became a deep pit, and only a few of those seemingly strong high-level living corpses barely "survived".

Helbo still sat on his high throne and looked at the messy and empty hall in front of him. He couldn't help shaking his head slightly - not long ago, he was the party who launched the raid at that time, but now the situation has finally turned around.

He knew that although Maka had left for the time being, she would not leave Britain. As long as he makes a slight change next, the other party will appear immediately and have a high-intensity confrontation with him again.

In short, Maka regarded herself as a living seal magic and pinned Haier Bosheng here when she knew she could not completely destroy Haier Bosheng.

There is no doubt that from the recent war between the two, Maka has enough strength to act as Haier's current opponent.

But somehow, although Haier Bo was trapped here, he didn't worry at all. Instead, he seemed to be in a good mood.

"Marca McLean... Good, that's good... I'm waiting for you, I'm waiting for you here."

Whispering in this way, halbo stood up and walked down the steps in front of the throne. After pushing away a high-ranking corpse in front of him, I saw him pacing until he came to the door of the hall.

Then, it seemed that he really intended to wait, and stood there with his arms folded.

……

What happened in the fog must be difficult for others to know except Maka and Haier Bo. Even though some alchemists were aware of the battle in London through alchemical instruments that could detect magic fluctuations, they obviously could not know more.

Because of this, Hermione thought that they had to have someone go to the fog to find out, so as to grasp some initiative more or less.

After today's lunch, the old housekeeper and Mr. brova have begun to discuss with Mrs. Maxim about seeking more allies. Maybe soon, they will be able to gather people to form a real "resistance alliance against hairbo wizards".

At the same time, Hermione put aside Safina at noon and discussed with Harry and others the first batch of candidates for investigation in Britain.

"I'm sure I'm going," Harry said seriously. "And if I'm going, Ginny, who supports me in using the Gryffindor sword, they're obviously going together - it's already five. If you and Luna are added... I wonder if there are too many people as a reconnaissance team?"

"Indeed," Hermione nodded when she heard the speech, "but it might be feasible if you were only five of you and no more people."

In a room in busbarton, Harry and Hermione were sitting on both sides of a small round table by the window, and everyone else was sitting or standing, making the room seem a little crowded.

But now everyone is very quiet, at least it doesn't make it so chaotic.

When Hermione said that only five people were going, Harry frowned:

"Is it too dangerous? You know, I mean Ginny and them... Although I am confident that I can protect everyone, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents, can I?"

"Of course," Hermione thought, "so in order to ensure the safety of the four of them, the wizard robes Delphi took out will be given to them to use this time, plus a total of three Rune arm shields... Except Neville doesn't need one, the other three just deserve one."

"Don't you even want to take out this one?" Ron finally couldn't help saying, "just in case, you'd better keep it! You should know that I have self-healing ability now, so I don't have to --"

"No, you also need one," interrupted Hermione seriously. "Your self-healing ability can only barely save your life under specific circumstances. And you should remember that your mission is to maintain Harry's combat effectiveness in the final analysis. If any of you lose your ability to move, Harry will have a big problem!"

As Hermione said, the core combat power of this operation is Harry alone. Although others have great strength after having the arm shield made by Marca, if they really want to meet the high-level living corpse and even Haier Bo himself, probably only Harry can maintain a certain combat ability.

To tell the truth, Hermione herself really wants to go, but it's a pity that no matter what action it is, the rear must at least retain some combat power to support the front and back at any time.

Nowadays, it can be said that everywhere is a battlefield, and the war situation is absolutely changeable. If you don't leave behind, you can only live or die, and most likely it will become the end of "our enemy lives".

It is obviously the most unwise act to work hard with halbo, so Maka will retreat again and again before - this is not what he is willing to retreat, but that our side has no capital to take the initiative to attack.

Until now, Marca, who can no longer stay with everyone, temporarily gave up his defense.

But Hermione clearly knew that Maka's departure did not mean that they should turn from defense to attack. Even if she left the island of roina, she could only choose to play steadily and keep her retreat at all times.

"In short, it's settled!" after a brief pause, she simply photographed the candidates for the investigation. "Then next, let's think about the specific investigation route - London is naturally the final destination, but before that, how should we go?"

In fact, this investigation is to collect information in the fog area for the later or future Rebel Alliance while searching for Maka's whereabouts. If the situation in the fog is still unknown, everyone will always have a black eye, and there is naturally no way to deal with Haier Bo.

After raising the question of investigation route, Hermione unfolded a prepared map, pointed to London and said:

"If we only take the shortest route and stop and turn back in the outer suburbs, it must be the safest. But if we go this way, whether there is fog or not, we will definitely get very little. If we detour like this..."

She was talking, but Harry suddenly waved his hand across from her, interrupted her, and pointed to the door. It seems that someone is coming.
