"What about Albert? Is Albert in danger now?" Hibiscus Chinensis suddenly screamed and clenched her fists.
"Don't worry, Penello was caught by Luna when he got too close … Erm, I mean, he's been invited back. Albert is now besieging that stubborn old man Leonard's defense area. He's still far away from there …" Owen comforted his daughter-in-law. He then calmed down and looked at Luna. "Luna, what's the worst that could happen?"
"If Helbo really doesn't care about his priesthood responsibilities …" Allen explained for Luna. He had been communicating with her in their minds and understood the situation. "If these undead creatures are released indiscriminately … the worst case scenario would be this world, this area, the surface world, it would be the end of the world … At least America would be the first to be destroyed."
"What if we surround the entire Rocky Mountain Range, seal it off, and build a line of defense?" Hibiscus' green eyes, which were shining with silver light, focused slightly. She was a little flustered as she tried her best to think of a solution. "We can trap them in this area."
"Like the Maginot Line of French Muggle?" Daisy, who was a little grumpy due to fear, habitually refuted Hibiscus Chinensis. "The Rocky Mountains cover such a large area. If we build a line of defense around it, the wizards won't have enough people to protect it …" Her tone was a little sharper than usual. "Besides, these actions would be futile. Those demon-eaters can fly. It doesn't matter if the Death God does it personally or opens a portal …"
"Allen, if we convene the International Union of Wizards and Wizards and gather all the elite wizards in the world, can we destroy this entrance?" Owen raised his head and asked. However, his clenched fists revealed his fear at the moment.
"If a living person enters this area without protection, there's no need for anyone to do anything. They'll die immediately." Allen took out the necklace with the symbol of the Sacred Weapon of Death on his neck. "This necklace can protect those who enter this area from dying, but it requires divine power to make, so it can't be provided to too many people."
"There's one on Xenophilius's neck …" Emily cried out. Only then did she realize Luna's preference for Allen and her father.
Looking at Emily's expression, Luna smiled. "You can take the time converter hanging in the basement of the tower … Just be careful not to turn it into an hourglass …"
Owen pressed his index finger against his furrowed brows. He bit his lips so hard that they bled. Feeling the taste of rust in his mouth, he finally asked, "Allen, if only you and Luna can go in now … If the two of you enter this area and work together to deal with Death, do you have a chance of defeating him?"
Harris and the others looked at Owen in surprise. Penello was even a little annoyed at Owen.
Lunn, who had been working with his father in the Ministry of Magic for a long time, was even more surprised. He knew his father's pursuit of power. He did not expect Owen to risk his life for Allen after the incident in the fifth grade. This was equivalent to asking Allen to risk his life for the possibility of saving the world.
"I am now a True God, but in essence, I am still a living creature. Unlike Hai 'er Bo, he was already an undead before he became a God." Luna's voice was still floating. "Because of this, he arranged his Divine Domain to suppress all living creatures. Originally, a God would have a great advantage in their own Divine Domain, but Hai' er Bo's arrangement made the suppression even stronger. I might not be able to defeat him outside."
Luna's rare detailed explanation was like pouring cold water on the hearts of the Harris and the others. Some despair spread in the room because of her words and the scene in the illusion.
Allen frowned and looked at Emily. "Emily, although there are a lot of advantages to becoming an undead, there are also a lot of disadvantages. At least that Greek old man won't really want to eat candy …"
Emily saw Allen's gaze and blushed. She forced a smile and was a little embarrassed. However, her father, Owen, had already slumped on the sofa, his eyes blank.
Owen felt a chill from his head to his whole body. His heartbeat was like thunder in his ears. Suddenly, he felt that the power he pursued all these years was meaningless. If the Grim Reaper went crazy and released these undead creatures, all the creatures on the surface would be in a desperate situation. The land that they had just conquered would be meaningless.
"The Muggle don't know anything, but they are always the first ones to suffer …" Hermione murmured and kept wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes.
When they realized that so many innocent lives could be lost, even the witches who usually did not care much about the Muggle could not help but feel sad.
Daisy wiped her tears and sought comfort in Morgan-le-Feil's arms. However, her mother just collapsed on the sofa, her face as pale as a sheet of paper. She patted her daughter's back mechanically. Even Penello, who usually did not have any special feelings for the Muggle and the wizards, felt as if a curse had been shot directly into her heart.
"There are still three options." Luna's voice broke the sadness and despair that had just begun to spread in the room. Under everyone's gaze, she gestured with her right index finger, "The first one is that Allen and I will go in to expel him, but he will come back again."
"You don't have to use this option to make it three." Allen shook his head at Luna. He then took the initiative to explain Luna's words without waiting for his family to express their doubts. "It's similar to what father said before. However, this is the Grim Reaper's territory. Luna and I will not be able to kill him once and for all. We can only try to beat him back …" He paused. "However, the biggest problem is not how difficult it is to fight him inside. It is because the Grim Reaper's actions show that he is no longer limited to the means he should use. If he no longer cares about affecting others … there will be a second time … So even if we successfully drive him away this time, he will definitely find another place to come back …" He paused.
"Yes, that won't do! It's too dangerous! It's too risky to drive him away again and again. " Morgan-le-feil was the first to object. When she thought of how Allen fell into the veil, her heart twisted into a ball. "The most important thing is that you can't completely solve the problem …"
"Yes, mother. As long as Luna is still around, as long as there are people in the world who believe in her, she can use her divine power to directly reconstruct our bodies …" Allen nodded at his mother. "However, as a true god, Luna has no way of splitting her own soul to create a soul vessel … So once she falls in the Grim Reaper's divine realm, even if I can use the modified and strengthened Resurrection Stone to quickly revive her … So this operation is meaningless."
"You all fell into the veil and suffered a great loss. There is no need to risk your lives for America's Muggle." Penello's tone was a little fierce. "Roina? Ravenclaw, no matter what, Allen is just a mortal. It's too risky to intervene in the war between the gods! This is what you should do … And if you ask me, why don't you work harder now and let the rest of us learn all the scrolls? This way, we will be more or less useful in future battles … "
