Ryan and Hermione climbed to the top of the mountain along the route they had scouted before and looked down the mountain. The scene in front of them proved that they had arrived.
This is a mountain basin, surrounded by mountains. The area of the basin is not small, and there is even a small mountain lake on the basin that can provide water. There are several bonfires under the mountain, and ordinary boy scouts when camping
The bonfires are about the same size. But compared with the six or seven-meter-high and hill-like shadows around them, these bonfires seem much smaller.
"Are they giants?" Ryan and Hermione were lying in a small pit on the top of the mountain, wearing camouflage nets and holding low-light night vision binoculars to look down. "They look so ugly!"
Ryan agreed with Hermione that these giants looked heavier than elephants, and their skin was as rough as rhinoceros skin. Their heads were like balls, covered with curly, thick and dirty hair. Their facial features
It looks like it was roughly carved out of a big stone ball. The short and thick nose is almost shapeless, the mouth is crooked, and it is full of strange yellow teeth the size of half a brick; the eyes are turbid brown-green, and the mouth is crooked.
Giants are small by standards. Their ugly heads sit directly on their shoulders, with barely visible necks in between.
"They deserve to die!" Ryan yelled after carefully observing the giant's camp.
"What happened." Hermione turned her head and looked at Ryan lying next to her. He found that Ryan's face was very ugly now, as if he was suppressing huge anger in his heart.
"Look at their pot." Ryan said in a low voice. Hermione aimed her binoculars at the big pot placed on a bonfire. After taking a closer look, she let out a suppressed exclamation. Because the pot was covered with wooden sticks.
What turned up was a human hand.
"Hagrid never said this. No one ever told me that giants can eat people." Hermione looked at Ryan in shock and said.
"In the past, they may have only occasionally eaten some Muggles who strayed into the valley by mistake, but it seems that after the arrival of the Death Eaters, these giants were more evil than before. They must have forgotten the painful lessons they learned from their failure last time.
, awakening the evil power in your heart."
Ryan said, pointing to a small cave on the cliff on the other side, "I feel like there are at least 20 people in there, but there are only two magic reactions. It's probably the Muggles that the Death Eaters grabbed from nowhere and gave them to those
Giants are used to arouse their bloodthirsty character. Those Death Eaters do not consider giants to be their allies. In their eyes, giants are just dirty monsters. They only hope to ally with them to use their fighting power to us.
Please cause trouble. In this case, they will definitely use various methods to make the giants more cruel and barbaric."
After the two people moved to the other side of the valley facing the cave, they confirmed their inference through the telescope: McNeil, wearing a black robe, was sitting at the door of the cave holding a wand. From the entrance of the cave, they could vaguely see something inside.
There were some iron cages, some empty and some containing people. Judging from the clothes on their bodies, the people in the cages must be Muggles.
"What should we do?" Hermione asked. "There are too many people on the other side, and there are only two of us."
"Drink this first." Ryan took out a bottle of bright red potion. "Don't even think about sleeping tonight. We need to figure out the movement trajectory of these guys now, and then formulate an action plan."
After observing for two hours, they finally discovered a weakness of the other party. That was that the third Death Eater on the outside had very little contact with other people. If he was knocked out first, he would not have to worry about others discovering him for at least a day or two.
The hidden Death Eater looked very cautious. He hollowed out the middle of the trunk of a large tree a few meters above the ground where several people were hugging each other, and then hid in it. The dug-out wood was disposed of with a vanishing spell, and finally he hid in it.
Cover the bark back to its original position. In this way, no one will be able to discover the person hiding in the tree in a short period of time. At the same time, through the small hole in the bark, you can just monitor the top of the cave where the two Death Eaters are staying.
.
The Death Eater also set up a lot of defensive magic and surveillance magic around this tree, completely turning the area into a very good fortification.
The reason why Ryan was able to discover this guy was because such a tree stood out to the perception of natural magic. It was like a bright light in the dark night. And the reason why the Death Eater left such a big loophole was naturally because in the
Britain has not seen a wizard who has mastered natural magic for hundreds of years, so of course this aspect will not be considered.
"You stay here to monitor the movements of the giant below. If anything happens, use your ring to notify me. I'll go and deal with the Death Eater hiding in the dark first." Ryan told Hermione and climbed out backwards.
At the observation point, I didn't stand up until behind the tree, climbed up the tree, and left.
"Good luck!" Hermione said in a voice that only she could hear after watching Ryan leave, and then raised the telescope and continued to stare at the giants below and the cave opposite.
Ryan jumped quickly on the branches in the forest, and did not stop until he was more than ten meters away from the tree where the Death Eater was hidden. Because he felt there were magical defenses around him.
"Let me see." Ryan took out a purple crystal ball and made a few gestures to it, and many runes quickly appeared on the crystal ball.
"Guard safely, protect everything, and trap enemies. Does it look like the magic used by this Death Eater is also very conventional? What is this?" Ryan suddenly found that the crystal ball displayed a magic he didn't know before.
"Soul, perception, shock wave, any intelligent creature will receive a shock on the soul when it comes close? This magic is quite new. It seems that the guy hiding in the tree is a wizard who is good at attacking the soul." Ryan thought about it from inside the space bag.
He took out a few charms for soul defense and blessed himself. Then he began to break down the surrounding defenses and magic.
Every time a spell is done, the runes representing that magic on the crystal ball will disappear. After 15 minutes, the last rune disappears. Ryan checks the equipment on his body and jumps out.
After arriving at the tree where the man was hiding, Ryan touched the tree under him with his hand and communicated quietly with the tree. Soon he figured out the specific hiding location of the Death Eater: the guy was now leaning against the tree hole.
Sitting on the wall, looking around through the small holes in the moving bark.
"Lean against the tree, that'll be easy." Ryan smiled after discovering this, and then pulled out the enemy fencing sword he got from the "Lord of the Rings" world last time and walked to the side where the Death Eater was leaning.
On a branch.
"Do it now." After all, Death Eaters are also human beings. The moment he felt the guy in the tree hole lowering his head to drink water, Ryan, who was standing on the branch with his eyes closed and concentrating, suddenly opened his eyes, and then moved his head and feet from the branch.
Jumped down.
The wind blew past his ears, and the earth hit his face. But Ryan's brain was still running at a high speed and calmly.
"1, 2, do it." After counting two numbers in his mind, Ryan, who was sure that he had arrived at the location, suddenly inserted the sword in his hand into the tree trunk. This magic sword forged by elves successfully penetrated 20cm under Ryan's control.
The thick wood and a layer of magical defense penetrated directly from the other side of the wood and penetrated into the Death Eater's neck, and then the sword tip came out directly from the guy's throat.
The Death Eater was killed on the spot. After all, even if the wizard's vitality was stronger than that of the Muggle, he would still die on the spot when the neck bones and the nerves inside were all severed in an instant.
Soon enough, the moment the sword penetrated, Ryan immediately let go and used the force to do somersaults in the air to adjust his posture. Then he landed firmly on his feet and rolled to resolve the impact.
Soon he stood up again, holding the wand and aiming vigilantly at the enemy's location on the tree trunk. But the expected counterattack did not appear.
After using life magic to sense that the person inside was indeed dead, Ryan directly eliminated the trap under the tree, retrieved his sword, and then moved away the piece of bark.
"Amycus Carlo." After picking up the chin of the corpse with the tip of his sword, Ryan recognized the identity of the Death Eater he killed. As one of the ten escaped Death Eaters, Ryan had previously reported in the newspaper
I have seen his photos. This can also explain why the surrounding defenses are so average, because this person was also known for his simple brain before, but he was more capable of fighting and extremely cruel. It is possible that he would not know how to arrange it in the first place.
Those complex defenses.
"The first goal has been achieved, and the surrounding area has been cleaned up. The next task is to deal with those core issues." Ryan thought about packing up the loot, and hurried to join Hermione.
