Chapter 1895

In southern England, a river cuts into the land from the Solent Strait and winds from south to north. It turns East and weakens gradually after passing through Winchester.

This river is called the yichin river.

To be honest, this river is not long, and it is not too famous. It doesn't even rank well in Britain, where there are many rivers.

But this time, its existence just brought great convenience to Hermione's trip.

"Let's go into the water."

After re entering the fog along the river, Hermione decided to start walking underwater as more and more corpses were met.

The flowing river will naturally hinder the movement of the corpses, so there are not many enemies underwater. As long as the breathing problem is ensured, the safety will be greatly improved immediately.

As for Breathing Underwater... It's obviously just a piece of cake for Hermione today.

After all the members of the team, including Harry, applied the bubble curse, they put away their brooms and sank into the water of the yichin river.

In fact, the weather has been very warm recently. Unfortunately, there has been no sunshine in Britain for too long, and the temperature has been very low. Now everyone was soaked in the water and could not help shivering.

However, after the previous almost fatal crisis, it seems nothing to be frozen in the water than to worry about the terror of dying in the battlefield at any time rather than fighting hard.

"Purr purr..."

Hermione, with a big bubble wrapped around her head, turned to look at Harry. After confirming that there was no problem, she made a "go" gesture to her little friends.

The next moment, she suddenly waved her wand and pointed behind her.

"Bang!"

As a cloud of air blew away from the tip of her stick, she suddenly rushed forward. Although the speed was much slower than that of a broomstick, it was at least much better than swimming by herself.

Seeing this, everyone followed her and drove all the way along the river to Winchester in the north.

……

"Wow!"

When Hermione and her party didn't know how many times they surfaced and re applied the bubble head curse, the sky had gradually turned dark. Looking out from the left and right in the middle of the river, the surrounding space becomes dim again. You can't see far at all.

"You stay here for a while. I'll take a look at the shore."

Hermione gasped slightly and rowed slowly towards the river. As she got closer to the river bank, a large shadow in the thick fog shadow came into her eyes again.

The density of living corpses here is already quite high, even higher than when they were besieged by a large group of living corpses at Downton. It is by no means a good choice to go ashore here and look for recognizable road signs.

Hermione didn't even dare to get too close to the shore, because those living corpses were very sensitive to the magic fluctuation of living people. Once they were close, they might be detected at any time.

Fortunately, she soon found that she had good luck this time, because there was a road along the river on the bank, and there was a road sign not far in front.

"Here we are! Winchester is ahead!"

When Hermione barely recognized the letters on the road sign, a happy expression appeared on her tired face - even though she was walking underwater by magic spell, it still took a lot of energy to keep balance in the water.

"Go further, and when you really enter the area near the ancient city of Winchester, the number of living corpses will be greatly reduced." Neville, who also swam here, "Last time we came here, it was like this - Maka had sent people to empty all the living bodies in the ancient city, and there were wizards who could manipulate the black flame patrolling around. Soon we were completely safe."

"Yes."

Hermione nodded, followed Neville back to the middle of the river and greeted everyone to move on.

However, when they came out of the water again, Hermione found that the situation did not seem to be exactly what Neville said

"Here... Should have reached the ancient city area?" Hermione held the stones by the river and looked at the shore a few more times, but suddenly felt a thrill. "What are those?"

Yes, it seems that there are many figures walking and patrolling on the shore, but... Black flame wizard? No, no, no, those guys who can use black flame to resist the enemy look strange, but Hermione heard Harry say that they usually express themselves as normal people except in battle.

However, the figures on the shore, even for the time being, have a human posture, even if they can't see the specific appearance through the fog. However, the very rigid and strange walking posture of those "figures" makes Hermione look like a human.

Seriously, Hermione thinks the corpses outside are more human than those guys above!

After hesitating for a while by the river, she quietly returned to her companion and told everyone what she saw.

"... have you seen puppets? To be honest, after I saw those figures on the shore, I immediately thought of puppets controlled by puppeteers holding silk threads."

Now the little friends who have already faced too many terrible realities will not have much fear of this scene.

However, at the thought that this should be Maka's territory, and several of them just came here once not long ago. This time, such a big and strange change has taken place again, which makes everyone very upset.

"Oh! What the hell is Maka doing here!" Ron murmured in a low voice, wiping the icy river on his face, "Last time I finally came in 'lying down', but I also saw a lot of things... I think those black flame people are scary enough - they all look like dead people. This time... Hermione, what did you just say? Dolls?"

However, Neville shook his head and said:

"Actually, I think it doesn't matter... Anyway, this must be Maka's territory, which will never change? When I came here before, I thought he should be ready to stay here for a long time - and as long as this is Maka's place, we don't have to worry too much."

"Well..."

Hermione could not help nodding when she heard the speech. She said after pondering for a moment:

"Also! Besides, we have all come here. We have to go up and have a look - well! Neville, you protect everyone here. I'll go ashore to test it first."

After saying that, she saw that other people wanted to speak, and immediately waved her hand. There was no need to say more.

"Leave it to me."
