Latest website: "So, you just abandoned Hogwarts and escaped back by yourself?"
Voldemort stared at Snape who lowered his head, with dangerous light flashing in his scarlet eyes. Fortunately, he was not stupid enough to take the opportunity to lose his temper and kill Snape on the spot.
"Master, the raid on Hogwarts by the Order of the Phoenix and the Defense Society was preditated. Our people were caught off guard and could not resist at all. I was forced into a corner by them and I took the opportunity to break the window and jump out, only to escape by luck." Snape lowered his head even more, being humble and respectful enough to Voldemort, so that Voldemort would not kill him directly because of the wand issue.
It is undeniable that Snape's words were intended to shift the bla, but they still made the Death Eaters who remained on standby at the headquarters feel uneasy. It was not because Hogwarts was occupied by the Order of the Phoenix, but because the sudden large-scale action by the Order of the Phoenix and the Defense Society ant sothing. They all knew very well what it ant.
After a round of whispers, the conference room fell into an eerie silence.
Snape secretly raised his head and saw that Voldemort did not speak. He waited for a while and then expressed so of his speculations: "I think today should be what they said in the broadcast so ti ago..."
"That's enough!" interrupted Voldemort impatiently.
He actually wanted to find an excuse to kill Snape right now. Obviously sothing big was going to happen tonight and he needed the power of the Death Stick, but Voldemort also knew that it was best not to do so in front of other Death Eaters, otherwise it would only make things worse.
At this mont, soone knocked on the door of the conference room and Alecto Carrow ca in. He bowed slightly to Voldemort in the main seat as a sign of respect, then went straight back to his seat and began to report on the current situation in Hogwarts.
"Master, the Order of the Phoenix brought a large number of people to capture Hogwarts, and even the professors of Hogwarts have joined them."
Perhaps sensing that sothing was wrong with the atmosphere in the eting room, Alecto paused and continued, "Hogsade Village has also fallen into their control, and our people were ambushed. Severus, I thought you..."
All right!
The current situation is really not Snape's personal problem. After all, there are only a few of them in Hogwarts. It is already quite good that Snape and Alecto were able to escape. It really cannot be blad on them for losing Hogwarts, because the number gap between the two sides is huge.
Before Voldemort could get angry, the conference room was pushed open again from outside. This ti, it was Yaxley who ca in. He hurried to Voldemort and reported respectfully, "Master, I'm afraid the situation is not good. Kingsley and his gang are calling on all British wizards to stand up against us on their radio. Also, our people have discovered that there are unusual movents by foreign Aurors. I suspect that the Order of the Phoenix has colluded with foreign Aurors. They are making such a big fuss now just to create opportunities for the foreign Auror coalition."
"Oh, according to you, those guys are planning to kill us all in one go?"
Voldemort's face was still exceptionally calm, but that was just a superficial expression to calm the Death Eaters. If Yaxley guessed correctly, the current situation was quite bad. ….
So many things burst out at once, there was no doubt that they were directed at .
But where do they get the confidence to think they can succeed and put all their chips on the gambling table in one go?
This is not like Albert Anderson's steady form!
This is also what Voldemort couldn't understand.
"Yaxley, what is your plan?"
Voldemort turned his expressionless gaze toward Yaxley, who had ntioned this possibility to him.
"We have made similar preparations. If the International Confederation of Wizards really intends to send the Auror Alliance to interfere in the situation in the UK, we'd better beat the Auror Alliance with lightning speed before they join forces with the Order of the Phoenix and make them get out of the UK on their own initiative."
"Then, we'll go back and deal with those guys in Hogwarts who are dancing so happily." Yaxley hesitated for a mont and reminded in a low voice: "But this plan requires the master to do it personally, otherwise it will be difficult for us to make those Aurors retreat in a short ti."
"Master, I think this is a conspiracy carefully prepared by the Mudblood." Alecto glanced at Snape and raised his hand to express his opinion on the matter. "Only that guy would make such a big scene. Everything he did was to target us. Whether the so-called Auror Alliance is true or not, I'm afraid it's a trap prepared for us."
"What do you think, Severus?"
Voldemort looked at Snape, and even his address beca intimate, as if he was back to the ti when Snape killed Dumbledore.
"I think we should prioritize eliminating the threat of the Auror Alliance, but we must also find a way to disrupt Albert Anderson's arrangents. We should not follow his pace, lest we step into the trap he sets." Snape's thoughts were still clear, but he still felt that the Auror Alliance was most likely a cover.
But if he followed the Death Eaters' thinking, he should support Yaxley because they really couldn't afford to lose.
"As long as there is no interference from the International Confederation of Wizards, the wizards summoned through the broadcast will probably collapse directly, and the Order of the Phoenix and the Defense Association alone will definitely not be able to stop the master."
"Yaxley, I need you to continue to send people from the Ministry of Magic to find out the movents of the Auror Alliance."
Voldemort turned his gaze to McNeill again, "I need you to mobilize all the Death Eaters and so dark wizards. This ti we must teach them a profound lesson and let them know how foolish it is to rashly interfere in the situation in Britain."
"yes!"
When most people in the conference room stood up and prepared to leave, Voldemort suddenly called out to Snape who was also about to leave.
"Severus, please stay here. I have an important task for you to complete."
The two sides looked at each other in silence for a mont. After all the Death Eaters left the headquarters, Voldemort finally spoke.
"Severus... do you know why I left you alone?"
"I don't know, Master. Is there any important task that I need to complete?"
Snape actually knew the reason, but he had to pretend to be confused and not let Voldemort see any flaws, even if he would lose his life because of it. ….
"There is sothing very important that only you can accomplish, and it determines whether we can achieve the final victory." Voldemort stroked the wand in his hand with his pale fingers. "We are almost there... just a little bit more."
"Master, know that I am willing to serve you." Snape did not forget to express his loyalty to Voldemort.
boom!
No signs at all!
The noise was like thunder in sumr.
The defensive magic that originally protected Voldemort's headquarters was ruthlessly torn apart, and the manor that served as their stronghold also suffered an unexpected disaster and was turned into ruins by a terrible force. People who were not aware of the situation might think that there had just been a major earthquake here.
The sudden "dramatic change" had not yet ended, and what followed was a series of intensive attacks, leaving the two people who had just experienced the "dramatic change" breathless.
The enemy's target was not Voldemort, but Snape who was beside Voldemort.
Is this a plan to get rid of Snape in one go?
It all happened so fast that Voldemort had no ti to react. He almost instinctively raised his wand to protect Snape and prevent him from dying at the hands of others.
"Albert Anderson!"
Voldemort already knew who the visitor was and why he wanted to kill Snape.
That guy must know the secret of the Death Stick, so he tried to prevent Voldemort from completely mastering the Death Stick!
Perhaps, he should kill Snape imdiately and bla his death on that Mudblood.
Unfortunately, Albert's fierce attack was like a storm, not giving Voldemort any chance to breathe.
He now not only needs to resist Albert's fierce attack, but also needs to be distracted to protect Snape's safety and prevent him from being killed by Albert's spell.
"You go and et up with them first."
Voldemort wanted to kill Snape directly, but he couldn't take the risk now to avoid any accidents.
If Snape was killed by the Mudblood in front of him, all would be over.
"yes!"
Snape did not hesitate at all, but for so reason the expression on his face was extrely complicated. After Voldemort helped him block a fatal curse, he Apparated and disappeared.
Leaving behind the desolate ruins of the manor, and Albert and Voldemort confronting each other in the ruins.
A showdown between the two most powerful wizards in history officially begins at this mont. 3931480.
