MTL - In This Hogwarts Without a Savior-Chapter 424 422. Voldemort's Choice
Chapter 424 422. Voldemort's Choice
Little Barty's eyes instead carried a kind of scrutiny, as if he was patiently waiting for what choice Voldemort would make regarding this condition.
Voldemort's face was obviously stunned the moment he heard Dumbledore's words. He obviously didn't expect him to raise such a condition.
But soon the astonishment disappeared, and he became cold and gloomy again.
"Do you think I will only compromise again and again? Dumbledore!"
Dumbledore looked at him quietly. The former Voldemort would never say such a thing if he encountered such a situation.
If he has more than 50% strength to beat Dumbledore, he will turn the table without hesitation, and talk about it after the fight. If he feels that he has no 50% chance of winning, he will use some more clever means to propose Other more tempting conditions forced Dumbledore to give up this request.
Or simply act out a play, and let Barty Jr. and Snape make sacrifices willingly.
Faced with such conditions, Voldemort had many options to choose from, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is actually threatening Dumbledore: this is almost enough, and he will agree to this condition, but only this one already.
"Just like when you proposed to hold the Triwizard Tournament at the beginning, you must pay more. Now that you still want peace, you also need to pay more."
"How much do you mean by some?" Voldemort said coldly, "If you add that I will be captured without a fight, will I also accept it?"
Dumbledore shook his head seriously.
"I promise this is the last one. As long as you promise, you can take your people and leave here. At the same time, how about I make another promise myself? As long as the British Ministry of Magic still belongs to you for a day, I will not take you with you." My students return to this castle."
Jon knew that Dumbledore was actually playing a little trick here.
Now according to the bet of the Triwizard Tournament, after they win, Hogwarts Castle will of course belong to them, but the castle does not run around like a carriage, it still belongs to the UK, and today's UK Still Voldemort's world.
If the entire Hogwarts is moved back to Hogwarts Castle directly, then Voldemort can find too many opportunities to infiltrate it, and can also use too many opportunities to attack the castle. Because of France, it is impossible for Dumbledore to send too many people to Hogwarts Castle, and even he himself cannot stay in the castle for a long time, and he needs to preside over the overall situation on the Wuping Line.
So for them at this time, the ownership of the castle is actually very tasteless. Having the sole claim to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is the most important thing.
Using the conditions of a vacant castle to pry Voldemort's heart, this deal is undoubtedly very cost-effective.
Facts proved that Dumbledore was undoubtedly right, and Voldemort no longer hesitated and hesitated about the condition he added later.
He looked at Barty Jr. and Snape, as if he was examining and measuring the two of them.
Every molecule in the air seemed to stop moving, until Voldemort's voice was heard again in everyone's ears.
"Severus."
When he said this name, the masked Death Eaters behind him all seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and their tense breath was relieved.
According to the standpoint of these purebloods, of course they sided with Barty Jr. without any suspense. As for Snape, he was isolated from the forces within Voldemort from the beginning to the end.
Not only because he is the only half-breed who holds a high position, but also because everyone knows that it was because Voldemort agreed to his request that he could not kill the woman named Lily anyway, leading to death The disciples lost many people for this.
Therefore, no one likes Snape, and even Voldemort One, who now controls his body, because he knew some inside information that was unknown to outsiders back then, he didn't have the slightest affection for Snape, so he chose Barty Jr. instead of him. It was exactly what he wanted.
After saying Snape's name, he didn't have any more extra words to say, and he didn't need to say anything more. The meaning expressed in this way was quite obvious.
Little Barty's face did not show the kind of afterlife that other people imagined. On the contrary, when he looked at Voldemort, his eyes were even weirder. It was weird like seeing his own face for the first time. Same as the master.
Even now, Snape's expression hasn't changed at all, like a dead man carved out of stone.
After Dumbledore got no unexpected results from Voldemort, he waved to the wizards at the Wuping Line, and then Kingsley and the others gave way to a passage for only one person to pass through.
The Carroll brothers and sisters, the half-blood dean Greengrass led a group of former Hogwarts professors out of the encirclement one by one, and before leaving, their wands were also confiscated to prevent the captives from being exchanged at the same time. , Voldemort backtracked.
Voldemort also released the scumbag students he detained and the Wuping line members captured in France. Ironically, when those scumbag students were released, there were still many people kneeling on the ground, begging for help. Don't abandon them, the pure-blooded lords.
All they got was the merciless spells of the Death Eaters, who were forced to drive them closer to the Wuping Line.
While the other Aurors had already started queuing up to leave, Lucius was left at the end.
He glanced at Jon complicatedly, then at Dumbledore, and then slowly put Draco, who was still in a coma, on the ground.
If it was a decision to disobey Voldemort on the spot if his son was handed over to others, Lucius was not afraid to do it, but if it was handed over to Dumbledore and the others, not only he, but also his wife Narcissa would not be too concerned. much worry.
Staying in the UK, if the battle between Voldemort and Dumbledore does not go well, it is not impossible for Voldemort to go crazy, and it is possible to force students who have not yet graduated to go to the battlefield, but if it is Dumbledore's side, it is considered Wupingxian Even if they are dead, they will not harm these students.
"He's just a child, he hasn't done anything evil, I hope you don't blame him for me."
Lucius whispered these words, and then followed the Auror army, taking one last look at Draco before leaving.
It’s just that one chapter is divided into two chapters, which is not counted as supplementary updates. I will make up later after I asked for leave yesterday
