Luckily the main story is at Hogwarts

"So, what is this"

Hermione gently tapped the palm of the other hand with the bat, and curiously circled the two light arc rings. They looked like two holes opened in the air, except that Other than that, there doesn't seem to be anything special about it.

"This is a pair of portals."

Ciel said in a cocky tone like a mad scientist.

But this answer silenced Hermione.

After about half a minute of silence, she repeated in disbelief, as if half a beat too slow.

"What did you say this is?"

"The portal."

Ciel sounded surprised.

"It's just two space gates, they can communicate with each other..."

"Okay, I know what a portal is."

The little girl interrupted Ciel.

As an academic who has a wide range of interests, Hermione has also read science fiction novels for young children. The science fiction works of this period are the era of hard science fiction that mainly focuses on spaceships, time travel, and space portals.

The concept of portals is naturally not unfamiliar to her.

But if she remembered correctly, the portal refers to traveling from one place to another place thousands of miles away, and this. .

Hermione glanced at the arc of light on the left. The interior of the arc of light was the ruins of the square. The same was true of the arc of light on the right. However, she could still discern subtle differences if she looked closely. The scenery in the two portals seemed to be connected. .

They are really a pair of portals with a transmission distance of half a meter.

The little girl's expression was very wonderful, it probably felt like that. .I had been looking forward to getting a Chanel lipstick for half a month, but in the end I received a USB flash drive with the appearance of Chanel lipstick. Someone even said very excitedly that the USB flash drive has a super large capacity of 256g.

"Awesome"

Taking a deep breath, the little girl's face suddenly showed a smile again, and then she asked in a particularly bright tone.

"Well, what's the use of it."

"Just put them here. They are the main force against those two monsters."

Hermione heard the seriousness in Ciel's tone.

"You are serious"

"of course."

Ciel spoke firmly.

Hermione still believed in Ciel. She believed that Ciel would not joke about such a thing. In other words, this portal with a transmission distance of half a meter was really useful. Is there anything she hadn't thought of?

While thinking about it, Hermione seemed to suddenly realize something. Some kind of inspiration flashed through her, but unfortunately she didn't catch it immediately.

Just when she was trying to find this inspiration again, Charles had already dug out a palm-sized piece of gravel from the broken tiles on the ground.

He weighed it in his hands, then turned to Hermione and said.

"Get ready, it's time to start."

Hermione was startled and thought of Ciel's previous instructions. She immediately clenched the bat with both hands and trotted to Ciel's side, her expression becoming nervous.

She held the bat in front of her with one hand, as if this would give her a sense of security. As she took a deep breath, she saw traces of her signature on the bat.

"Harley..."

Hermione thought for a moment and felt something was strange.

At this time, Ciel, who had taken a few steps forward, had already released the stone in his hand.

"Snapped"

Yes, the throwing skills didn't fail either. The stone drew an arc and accurately landed on the broken wooden window of the big house not far away.

"clatter"

Then, there was a soft sound.

"Calm down, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Before the stone hit the ground, Ciel and Hermione kept retreating until they reached the back of the portal. At the same time, he kept comforting Hermione and getting vaccinated in advance.

Because he knew exactly what the two of them were going to face next.

Virtual reality games are very real. In order to give players a stronger sense of experience, they are even so real that they are oppressive. Many players were scared when they first came out.

This was the case in the game, but it would probably be even more real in the real world. Ciel was a little worried that Hermione would be frightened.

This is not an exaggeration, Hermione was frightened when she faced the troll in her first year, let alone now that she was not even in her first year.

Even adult wizards still feel scared when facing dragons and trolls. .Of course, pig-headed people and kobolds are not as good as dragons, or even giant monsters.

But for little ones of this age, they are already comparable to dragons and a nightmare.

"I know."

"I'm calm."

Hermione held the bat tightly, her fingers were a little white, but she seemed to be very calm. She kept retreating after Ciel, and kept mumbling.

"I understand, your head is broken and you need a pat on the head later."

Shire:

This time it was Ciel who was no longer calm.

"Wait, I didn't."

. . .

"boom"

Just after Charles's stone was thrown into the wooden window, time seemed to stand still for a few seconds, and then with a huge roar, the dilapidated stone house was suddenly smashed.

As if being attacked by a missile, the thin wall was torn apart in an instant, rocks were flying, and smoke was swirling. A majestic body was looming among the large tracts of dust raised.

It took two steps forward, then stopped with a boss-like aura, waiting for the smoke and dust to dissipate.

"what"

Hermione screamed as expected. Unlike the kobolds she had seen far away before, this huge monster was almost twice as tall as them. The feeling of suffocation and impact instantly hit her face.

Even Ciel couldn't help but take two steps back.

The oppressive feeling of these two monsters is too strong. Although he has seen it countless times in the game, Charles clearly knows in his head at this time that this is not a game, and he will probably not have a chance to come back. A slight tremor inevitably surged into his heart.

"Don't be afraid, we are safe."

The portal was still stable, light fragments were splashing, and Ciel forced himself to calm down.

Just like in the game, they are not difficult to deal with with good technique.

"Henk is going to tear you apart"

The wild boar man not far away suddenly let out an angry roar.

Hermione's eyes widened.

"It can talk"

There was a slight tremor in her surprised voice. .

"Yes, they still speak English."

Ciel, who was trying to keep his composure, told a cold joke that no one laughed at.

Unlike kobolds who have no names, kobolds are ugly and tall, but their overall height is still about the same as that of an adult human.

But Hunk the quilboar. .

Ciel was not exaggerating. It was three meters tall, its cross-sectional area was almost the same as its height, and its rolling fat almost wrapped it into a ball.

Sharp fangs extended from its mouth and seemed to be covered with blood. It held a huge kitchen knife in its hand, which was stained with rust. A piece of leather armor with no visible color was wrapped around its waist, making it It became a bit more ferocious out of thin air.

The wild boar was painted in a realistic style. Ciel felt that he could smell its pungent stench even from this position.

Not to mention Hermione next to him. Although the little girl was still standing, Charles could already feel her shaking slightly, and even her voice had a vibrato.

"Are you sure... it's okay?"

he heard Hermione ask.

"I am very sure."

Ciel knew how to answer at this time.

He suddenly calmed down, turned his head, and looked straight into Hermione's panicked eyes.

"Trust me, it'll be fine."

As if she had magic power, after hearing Charles' words, the little girl suddenly calmed down, and she seemed to feel that she was not so scared anymore.

The ferocious pig-headed man was as tall as the two of them, and looked like a hill from a distance, but at this moment Hermione felt that it did not seem so invincible.

Reason told her that they could not be a match for such a monster, and running away was the right thing to do, but a certain sense of security that surged from the bottom of her heart kept stopping her from retreating.

This feeling is really confusing.
