Chapter 144 The Battle Under the Storm

"It's about to start!"

David looked up at the sky.

The pitch-black clouds moved and gathered around one after another, layer upon layer, and soon pressed down to the top of the mountain.

The brilliance of the sun was also confiscated by it, and the whole world gradually darkened, matching with the surrounding dense forest, just like the second before the zombies swarmed in Resident Evil.

It's been three days, why hasn't grandpa arrived yet?

Did he not hear from me?

Or did he not recognize the place?

David thought anxiously.

From the afternoon of the second day after he placed the two-way mirror, the swallow-tailed dog masked man began to have expulsion spells and defensive spells placed around him.

In order to buy time for those who successfully captured the thunderbird eggs to escape.

So in order not to be discovered, David could only grab a gap and retrieve the double-sided mirror.

Hope they got my message
At this time, a dazzling white light suddenly flashed across the sky, illuminating every part of the mountain, but it only lasted for more than ten seconds, and the world returned to darkness.

Immediately afterwards, a huge boom resounded through the sky and earth, shaking David's ears a little deaf.

Tarek walked not far in front of him and opened his mouth to say something.

But David didn't hear clearly, there was only a buzzing in his ears.

"What are you talking about?" David yelled.

Tariq was also stunned for a moment. He walked to David's side and tiptoed slightly: "Ian told us to gather in the past, it seems that we are about to start action!"

It just so happened that David's ears just recovered, and the eardrum was hammered heavily by Tariq's voice again. He rubbed his ears with embarrassment, and complained, "Can't you keep your voice down?"

"Didn't you just say you couldn't hear clearly?"

"You could hear me just now?" David was a little surprised, Tariq's ears are so firm?

"Can't hear you!" Tariq replied as a matter of course.

"then you?"

"Don't I know if I guess it? I can't hear you, so I must have heard what I said before."

Tariq gave David a disdainful look, then turned and walked quickly.

Ok
After David followed Tariq, he found that most of the people had gathered around Ion.

Yan also put away the comics and was observing the changes in the sky.

Another ray of white light flashed across, and there was a bang of thunder, and the dark clouds in the sky became shorter again.

At the cliff cave, Frank turned his head and called into the lair, his whole body soared into the air, and flew into the sky, lighting an eye on the reunited dark cloud.

Now it needs to monitor its surroundings in case any creature comes to harm its precious wife and unborn child.

Not long after Frank flew into the air, the light in the dark cloud gradually increased, and after a while, raindrops the size of soybeans rushed down.

The Thunderbirds are about to be produced, but the Newts still don't move.
David's mask automatically raised a layer of film, and the raindrops that fell on his face automatically cut to the sides so as not to block his vision.

"Fifteen people to stop the male bird." Ian's voice was very loud, and the sound of the rain could not block it at all: "Ten people to lead the female bird away."

"Two people go to fetch the eggs, and the others are responsible for guarding."

Yaen was speechless after speaking, waiting for everyone's decision.

"I can fetch the eggs," David said loudly.

"I'm going too."

Tariq hesitated, but finally made up his mind.

"Did you take the wrong medicine? Don't you think it's safer to be on guard?"

David said close to Tariq.

"We are friends."

Tariq's voice was muffled by the sound of the rain, but David could still hear him clearly.

This guy.
Raise the difficulty of my action to a level.
David sighed, silently waiting for the others to make a decision.

After everyone assigned tasks, the swallowtail dog masked man walked in front of David and Tariq.

He looked at Tariq with some embarrassment, but after being glared at by Tariq, he withdrew it.

"The task of the two of you is to fly in to get the eggs after the others leave the two thunderbirds." The swallow-tailed dog masked man sighed: "Although it sounds simple, you are actually the most dangerous, after all, no one can Guaranteed, those people can stop Thunderbird."

"You have one last chance to think about it, and I can call another person to go."

The man in the swallowtail mask was speaking to Tarek, and David knew that.

"No, I think it's easy to get a few eggs as my Quidditch ace player," Tarek said.

"What about you?"

The swallow-tailed dog masked man could tell that Tariq was accompanying David, so he looked at David beseechingly.

"me too."

But obviously David couldn't do what he wanted either.

"Okay, you two, be careful. After getting the eggs, if you encounter thunderbirds attacking you, just throw the eggs down, we will catch them, and remember to keep one, otherwise the thunderbirds will chase after you. of."

After the man in the swallowtail dog mask finished speaking, he returned to Yan's side.

"action!"

After about half an hour, Yaen looked down from the sky and said in a muffled voice.

The 25 wizards stepped on their brooms and flew into the sky.

As soon as their silhouette emerged from the woods, the sharp-eyed Frank spotted it, and it let out a piercing scream to remind his wife who had just given birth.

Then Frank flapped his wings and galloped towards the cave, but the fire front composed of a dozen wizards was so easy to break through, it was forced to retreat steadily, and seemed a little restless.

As soon as the other ten wizards flew to the front of the cave, they saw a Thunderbird one size bigger fly out.

Although it is bigger, the influence of production on it has not been completely eliminated, and its movements of flapping its wings are not so swift.

But the ten wizards have been recharging their energy for a long time, and they cast spells on Thunderbird as if they don't want money, and the angle is very tricky.

Thunderbird was forced to leave the cave in a short while, and was still going away.

After they were some distance away from the cave, Ion said, "You two can go."

David and Tariq immediately flew towards the empty nest.

Frank, who was fighting with twenty wizards, caught a glimpse of this scene, and immediately shook his head, let out a shrill cry, and started to drive out of the cave at the risk of being hit by the spell.

But it just flew more than ten meters away. I don't know if it was because the wizards blocked it hard enough, or Frank was discouraged and gave up.

It turned sharply and slammed into the wizards surrounding it like a train running out of control at high speed.

The wizards surrounding Frank were also flustered by its sudden change, and hurriedly dodged to the side.

But there were still two wizards who couldn't dodge and were smashed by Frank's broom and fell from a high altitude.

When they exclaimed all the way and were about to touch the forest, Ian pointed his wand, and the two fell slowly to the ground as if being dragged by someone.

It's just that both of their legs or hands were more or less injured, and they could no longer support them in fighting.

Frank's pressure eased a little, but it still didn't intend to break through the siege to rescue his child, it only focused on attacking the besieging wizards with its claws and wings.

As the anger in Frank's heart deepened, the dark clouds drooped and the raindrops became heavier.

David and Tariq's broomsticks became a bit heavy, but they rushed through the gap between the branches as fast as they could and fell to the edge of the cave.

At this time, the people staying behind on the field suddenly let out a few panicked shouts, but after being washed away by the sound of the rain, there were only some chirping sounds.

But judging from the tone and the few words that can be heard slightly, it seems to be telling them to retreat?

Tariq looked back in puzzlement, and then he froze there as if someone had put a petrification spell on him.

"Tariq!"

David yelled loudly, waved his wand, and Tariq flew out of the cave and fell down.

Then David pointed his wand to the ground: "Fly the broom."

The broomstick flew out of the cave at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye, flew down obliquely, and landed neatly under Tariq's body, exactly.

But Tariq was still falling, and he hadn't recovered from the shock just now.

When he was approaching the treetops, the shouting from below became clear. Tariq regained his senses in an instant, grasped the front end of the broom with both hands, and pulled it up suddenly. He returned to the high altitude safely.

At this moment, David's angry voice came just in time: "You bastards, why do you still have a Thunderbird? Are you trying to kill both of us!"

The surroundings were quiet for a while, and even Frank forgot to fight back for a while, and everyone's eyes were focused on the new Thunderbird.

It looked the same as Frank, but it was much stronger. It was obviously not something David could handle alone.

"How is this going?"

Yan's voice was a little cold, as if he was talking to a dead person.

"My people have been observing here for several days, and there is only one Thunderbird!"

The man in the swallow-tailed dog mask trembled a little, and he didn't know if it was because of Ian or because of the extra Thunderbird.

"What about it? Don't tell me it just flew over today?"

Yan raised his arm and pointed to the Thunderbird in the air.

Yes, that's right, it flew here today.

The man in the swallow-tailed dog mask really wanted to say that, but he knew that he had said so, and what was waiting must be Ion's killing curse.

If it was Soli, there was still a chance to maneuver today, but unfortunately not.

The swallow-tailed dog masked man sighed, his hand holding the wand was trembling: "I'll take someone to lure him away immediately, and it will be considered as my life."

Yan stared at him for a while, then nodded slightly: "Go."

In the cave at the top of the cliff, seeing the thunderbird pounced again, David swiped his wand on the ground, and the rock wall suddenly became a little soft.

Then David pounced back and avoided the Thunderbird's attack, but he was not lucky on that rock wall. The Thunderbird's iron claws opened a big mouth like tofu, breaking into pieces of gravel and heading down the cliff go away.

Coupled with the timely lighting of a bolt of lightning and the sound of rumbling thunder, the scene looked a bit spectacular.

Against the backdrop of thunder, lightning and heavy rain, the Thunderbird that just appeared was like a behemoth that could destroy the world.

The swallow-tailed dog masked man couldn't help hesitating at this moment, now there were five wizards left on the ground including him.

Among them, Yan needs to be ready to rescue other people on the ground at any time, and cannot be with him, which means they only have four people available.

But look at the Thunderbird's posture in the sky, four people are enough!Twenty more are about the same.

Those idiots don't know what's the use!Such important news has not been collected!

They're all junk!

The man in the swallow-tailed dog mask angrily scolded the group of guys in front who came to collect information.

But Yan didn't care about that much, he saw that the man in the swallowtail dog mask hadn't moved yet, and David in the cave was showing signs of being unable to hold on, and Tarek floating in the air was just a matchmaker.

A surge of anger rose in Yan's heart, and the wand in his hand moved slightly: "Aren't you going? Are you waiting for me to help you?"

"I'm going right now!"

The man in the swallowtail dog mask took a deep breath and waved his hands around: "Go, buy time for them!"

But it seemed that someone saw his embarrassment and didn't want him to take risks.

A voice came from a distance, with a hint of joy: "Sir, we came just in time, they haven't succeeded yet!"

As soon as the words fell, wizards one after another braved the torrential rain and appeared around the field, and began to support the Thunderbirds who were fighting.

The people who came were Newt and his team. He had been preparing since he received the news, but it took a lot of time to contact other wizards, so he barely caught up at this time.

Newt looked around and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he didn't see any signs of casualties.

Yan looked up at Newt with squinted eyes, and muttered, "It's that old guy again, where did he get the news this time?"

The others were not as calm as he was. A few masked wizards couldn't bear the pressure, so they cast a few powerful spells to drive away the crowd, and flew out desperately.

Not too far away, seeing no one was chasing them, they stopped behind a rock and Apparated away.

"head?"

The man in the swallow-tailed dog mask asked Ian softly. It goes without saying that they have to retreat. It is difficult to resist the group of people coming by relying on this group of sloppy guys, not to mention there are three huge Thunderbirds in the air. .

"Let's retreat!" Ian sighed: "I will give you a back seat."

The man in the "head" swallowtail dog mask wanted to say something more, but under Yann's cold eyes, he swallowed back the words.

He took out a horn and blew it into the air. The masked wizard suddenly lost all intention of resisting and began to retreat to the surrounding area in an orderly manner.

"Ron!"

Tariq roared, and flew towards the cave on his broom. During the process, he didn't stop, casting spells on Thunderbird one after another.

It's just that the power doesn't seem to be very strong. After fighting for half a day, the Thunderbird only lost a few hairs.

This idiot!

You have to make acting more difficult for me.

David cursed inwardly.

At this moment, David was shrinking into the depths of the cave, and behind him were a few white eggs the size of a washbasin, with circles of spiral patterns on them.

The eggs were still steaming, and they were all just laid by Thunderbird.

The iron claws of the newly-appeared Thunderbird continued to slash across the rock wall, and pieces of gravel rolled down the cliff.

However, the narrow terrain inside the cave space seems to limit its performance. The Thunderbird's movements are a bit clumsy, and the speed around the cave is also much slower.

After the Thunderbird forcibly received a few spells, he let go of the wings blocking the cave and flapped them. David took the opportunity to see that Tarek was still rushing towards him desperately.

Doesn't this guy even consider his own strength?

After getting along with Tariq for so long, David has already figured out Tariq's strength.

He's just a showman, with half a bucket of water, and no fighting power at all, but he just insists on going to dangerous places.

This play can't go on
That's right, the Thunderbird blocking the entrance was transformed from a horse-shaped water monster summoned by David, but it has only one shape and does not have the power of a Thunderbird, so David used his wand to loosen the rock wall to make it look more ferocious.

It's a pity. I originally wanted to wait until later to see Grandpa.

David sighed, waved his wand, and the Thunderbird, which blocked the cave, pulled away and flew to a high place when Tariq flew with a spell.

Tarik thought that the Thunderbird was driven away by his attack, so he hurriedly shouted excitedly: "Ron, come out quickly, don't worry about the eggs, another group of wizards are coming, we have to retreat!"

But Tariq hadn't been excited for 2 minutes, and the thunderbird in the air circled around and flew towards him.

"Ron, run, you won't die inside, right? I don't have time to collect your body now!"

Tariq ran out in fright, but he still didn't remind David.

"Go this way!"

David flew out of the cave and flew to the right side of the cave, but several wizards had already stopped there.
