Hogwarts: more magic than magic

Chapter 88 Claire Lyndon

In the process of heading to the station, everyone clenched their weapons tightly.

Every time he takes a step forward, he pays attention to the surrounding situation nervously, for fear of being accidentally attacked by a monster that jumps out of the darkness.

However, the surrounding area has been very quiet, without any abnormalities, and the footsteps of a dozen or so of them are particularly harsh in the silent night.

There was no problem until they arrived at the station.

And they immediately discovered that there were indeed quite a few people here, as Anton had said before he left.

The entire camp was surrounded by tall wooden fences, and at intervals, a torch would be planted on the thickest wooden stake.

Keez could thus see that the camp was at least as large as two Quidditch pitches.

Rows of tents inside are connected together, which seems to be enough for hundreds of people to live at the same time. In addition to the tents, there is also a large area of ​​open space, which should be reserved for their daily training and assembly.

At this time, two or three piles of bonfires were lit in the open space. With the faint light from these bonfires, Keiz saw the huge shadow behind the camp. The entire camp seemed to be built against the mountain.

I didn't see any monsters around here, and of course I didn't see any traces related to monsters.

Keiz was puzzled, this wasn't like the front line he had imagined.

Even the people inside were sitting around the bonfire, talking and laughing, as if they were having a bonfire party.

The people standing guard at the gate of the camp and some of them who were more vigilant saw them approaching from a distance, picked up their weapons vigilantly and got up to meet them.

The one walking in the front should be a wizard. He was wearing an old-style wizard robe, holding a wand in his hand. After walking a suitable distance, he spoke first.

"Who are you? What do you do?"

Blanca took a step forward, took out a document from his pocket and handed it to him.

"I'm Blanca Stam! I'm hired by the Ministry of Magic to take over the garrison here."

The man took the document, lit up the fluorescent light with his wand, and examined it carefully.

Keiz also observed his appearance through the light. This man was a head shorter than Blanca, a little thin.

His face was gray and pale under the fluorescent light. Although the robe on his body was slightly wrinkled, it was not as stained as Anton's.

After reading the document carefully, the man pointed his wand at the minister's signature, where a seal belonging to the Ministry of Magic gradually appeared.

After doing this, the man let out a long sigh of relief, and seemed to confirm Blanca's identity, handed the document back to her, and extended a hand to shake her.

"Welcome to you and your subordinates! Ms. Blanca!
My name is Mayim Wald, and I am currently mainly responsible for the daily management and distribution of supplies in the camp here.

Of course, because of the shortage of manpower, you can temporarily treat me as a magic consultant and doctor here. "

"Hello! Wald, these are my subordinates. I hope we can cooperate happily in the next period of time."

"Happy cooperation! Ma'am! When the people from the Ministry of Magic arrive tomorrow, I can hand over the management of the camp here to you."

Wald turned and relit his wand in his hand, and walked ahead to lead them.

"The sudden increase of monsters in the past two days has made us very busy, and we need your help."

"Where are those monsters? We didn't find anything unusual along the way!" Keiz asked at the right time.

Wald turned his head and glanced at Chiz, and was not surprised by the appearance of a child in the team, but said solemnly. "You don't want to see them anytime soon, enjoy your last quiet night! You'll see them tomorrow morning."

"I heard from Anton that reinforcements have been sent over there, right?" Blanca continued to ask.

"Yes! A group of people similar to you came here two days ago.

But even so, it was still a bit difficult to deal with the monsters that kept hitting the barrier inside.

But I believe it will be much better after you come here. "

"How many wizards are left here?" Blanca asked her most concerned question.

Wald hesitated for a moment, and took two steps before answering, "I'm the only one left here, and everyone else has been transferred to support other places where the situation is more critical.

After all, this place has been cleaned up, and those high-level monsters are gone. As long as the continuous generation of black mud monsters are not released, there will be no major problems. "

"Is that so? Are there enough medical and buff potions in the remaining supplies?"

"Don't worry about this, when those people came two days ago, they just replenished a batch, which is enough for you to use for a month or two.

And I can also configure potions myself. Although I am the only one in terms of medical treatment, I can still do simple trauma treatment. "

Blanca breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good! I don't want my subordinates to lose combat effectiveness due to injuries or die or become disabled due to injuries."

They walked and chatted, and soon reached the camp.

Wald briefly introduced another group of people to Blanca.

Then let one of them inform their leader, and he took the group of people brought by Blanca to distribute the tents.

After a while, a tall and strong man came over. This man was so strong that he was much taller than Blanca, who was already tall. He stood there like a little giant.

But because it was a little far away from the bonfire and it was too dim, he couldn't see his face clearly.

Keiz noticed a little girl about his own age sitting on his broad shoulders.

The man seemed to know Blanca, and he didn't take his eyes off Blanca's face as soon as he glanced at him. He warmly greeted her and stretched out a big hand like a cattail fan.

"Long time no see! Blanca! How many years ago was the last time we came here?

I can't even remember!Look at you, you are still the same as before...you are still so radiant!

After you left, almost every day I think back to the days when we trained together at the teacher's place. "

Blanca looked very surprised, instead of reaching out to shake hands with him, she took a step back and stared at him.

"Milk Linden! Why are you? No, why are you here?"

The man withdrew his hand in embarrassment, scratched his head, and was about to say something when the girl on his shoulder slapped his head hard.

The girl seemed very angry, and after a heavy slap, she jumped off his shoulder and walked towards the campfire.

"Is that your daughter?" Blanca seemed to feel that her reaction just now was a little too much, and changed the subject.

"Yes! I will be 12 years old this year." Milk showed a simple and honest smile.

"Why did you bring her here? She's just a child!"

"But she is also a genius! A genius like you, her talent is even better than yours!

Have you ever met someone who officially completed the knighthood at the age of 12?Claire is! ", Milke introduced his daughter to Blanca with a proud face.

"Actually, I've seen more geniuses! Have you ever seen a child who became an official knight in only half a year?" Blanca raised her chin, and glanced in the direction of Chiz.

"..."

The two chatted over there.

Claire Linden noticed Keiz when she was passing by a bonfire, and seemed to be interested in this kid who was about her own age, carrying a box and wearing only ordinary clothes, and walked towards him.

Qiz also noticed this little girl, he was very puzzled, didn't he say that this place is very dangerous?Why are there children?And it was a little girl.

Claire soon walked in front of Qiz, "Who are you? Did you follow the woman over there?"

Qiz took a look at the little girl who was half a head taller than herself in armor and with a rapier hanging around her waist.

Her hair was braided into small braids, all pulled back into a ponytail, and she wore small stones of various colors on it.Her face was very heroic, with sharp edges and corners, her eyes were lake blue, very bright, reflecting the bonfire behind him.

This girl is very beautiful, and she is the kind of beauty that kills both men and women.

Looking at this increasingly mysterious and charming face under the light of the bonfire, Keiz's heart beat faster.

"Yes! I'm Keez... hello!"

"I'm Claire Linden! I haven't seen you before, so you probably came here today?"

"Yeah! We just arrived tonight. What's the matter with you?", Keiz didn't know what this beautiful little girl suddenly wanted to do.

"What's the relationship between you and that woman who chatted with my dad over there?" Claire continued to ask, crossing her hands on her chest.

Keez wasn't too sure what to say about his relationship with Branca, saying his adoptive mother wasn't too good either.

"I...I can be regarded as Branca's disciple! She is my teacher." After thinking about it, it suddenly occurred to me that the knight practice I learned from Blanca should also be called a teacher.

"Since you can come here with her, that means you are at least an official knight?" Claire's eyes brightened, and she seemed to be in high spirits.

"Yes!" Keiz still couldn't figure out what she was going to do, and nodded.

"Does that mean you're pretty good?"

"Okay!"

After getting a positive reply, she was even more excited. "Come on! Let's play a game."

"???"

Keiz's mind was full of question marks at this moment.

But before he had time to think, a delicate fist had already appeared in front of his eyes. Caught off guard, he had to quickly lean back to avoid the fist.

"Wait……!"

Don't wait for him to finish.

His whole body was thrown to the ground by Claire's leg sweep.

"It's not that good!" Claire quickly jumped back after sweeping him over, and continued to look at him with her hands folded.

Keiz was so ashamed by her, he quickly jumped up from the ground, kicked the dropped suitcase aside, and put on a vigilant defensive posture.

"Why did you do it all of a sudden?" Keiz stared at her and questioned.

"Hit if you want! Why are there so many?" Claire smiled, stretched out her right palm upwards, and beckoned to him, making a provocative gesture.

"Stop! I don't want to fight with you!" Qiz also knew that they had just arrived here, and it would not have a good impact if they fought as soon as they arrived, and wanted to stop this meaningless fight.

But Claire saw that he didn't want to pay attention to her provocation, curled her lips in disdain, and rushed over again.

This time Keiz was ready, crossing his hands to block her direct punch.

It has to be said that this girl's strength is really amazing. A punch without using any skills shook his arm so painfully that he couldn't stand still and took a step back.

Seeing that her straight punch was caught by Chiz, Claire lowered her body weight and twisted her waist, stretching out her slender legs again to sweep towards Chiz's waist.

Qiz, who had already been hit once, easily dodged her whip leg, and punched her waist with a fist.

The girl was much more flexible than he had imagined, even if she landed on one leg, she still quickly dodged his fist.

He got two steps away from him.

Keiz rushed over and wanted to hit her in the chest, but she dodged again and was kicked in the left arm by her instead.

This girl's strength is really too great, this kick made his arm numb, fortunately he had the experience just now and quickly covered his arm with aura, otherwise his bones would have been broken just now.

"Okay! But you are not the only one who has stellar energy!"

After finishing speaking, there was another series of kicks, each kick was on Qizi's arm covered with thick qi, and the last kick kicked Qizi far away while standing.

Keiz slid a long way before standing still again. Just a few strokes had consumed half of the energy in his body.

"Stop! Can I admit defeat?", Keiz put his trembling hands behind his back and rubbed each other quickly.

"No! I'm not having fun yet!", she rushed over again as she spoke.

Keiz subconsciously wanted to use magic, but unfortunately before going out, he thought that he would not be able to use magic temporarily, so he threw all his wands into the suitcase.

The suitcase is not with him now, it is still far away from him.

Claire's attack was imminent, and Qizi quickly covered his right leg with the gas and kicked back.

It's a pity that his kicking skills were not good enough, the gangster energy on his legs was instantly dispelled by the opponent, and his body also spun and flew out.

Fortunately, he was not injured, and the moment he landed, he bounced up again.

Claire rushed up again, this time she didn't need her legs anymore, her fists came hitting like bullets, one punch was faster than one punch.

Keiz had no choice but to intersect with her fists, hitting her back and forth.

The people around noticed the movement here, and all ran over to watch.

After undergoing special training from Blanca, Qiz was able to fight her a few tricks, but gradually fell into a disadvantage.

Suddenly he saw that Claire's foot slipped, as if she had stepped on a stone, her fist was also missed, and her body turned sideways.

Keiz took advantage of the opportunity to clenched her neck with his right hand, and grabbed her right wrist with his left hand, trying to strangle her tightly.

But this is a loophole that Claire deliberately bought, in order to grab Keiz's arm.

She raised her fist upwards, and her slightly protruding middle finger hit the lower part of Chiz's upper arm, and after breaking through the qi, it hit that muscle heavily.

Qiz's right hand lost strength in an instant, and she grabbed it, pulled it over her shoulder and hugged it, and threw Qiz away a long way with a leg sweep and an over-shoulder throw.
