Chapter 971 Who put the Dark Mark

Voldemort broke his promise.

At least that's how Peter Pettigrew sees it.

Since Peter helped Voldemort restore his body, he didn't see anything that the other party had promised, just like farting.

Peter naturally didn't dare to propose in front of Voldemort unless he was dying.

Especially after discovering that his situation was not very good, Peter became more and more humble, hoping that Voldemort would not notice him.

However, this is obviously not possible.

Because he was accepted again as a member of the Death Eaters.

Although he was at the bottom and didn't get the treatment he deserved as a Death Eater, so that the Death Eaters looked down on him, but he was still a Death Eater.

And the only benefit brought by this identity is probably that he no longer has to worry about being hunted down by Sirius and Lupine to the point of no return!

If possible, Peter Pettigrew actually wants to return to a normal life, especially after resurrecting Voldemort, the cruel reality completely shattered his last illusion.

However, this is already impossible.

There is no regret medicine in this world!

A few days ago, the Dark Lord suddenly issued an order for Peter Pettigrew to hunt down that Mudblood named Albert Anderson.

My God, this is a mission to die.

What's more, Peter Pettigrew doesn't know where the Mudblood is at all. Even if he knows, he is no match for him at all. Even Barty Jr. was defeated by the opponent through plotting, so what can he do?

He's just Peter Pettigrew, that's all.

Probably knowing Peter's level, the Dark Lord sent another Death Eater to help, and brought many dark wizards recruited from Knockturn Alley, but there was still no sign of improvement.

What made Pettigrew Peter angry the most was that the Dark Lord actually asked Selwyn to preside over the secret hunt for the Mudblood, and he didn't trust himself at all.

What can a cruel, violent and rude guy like Selwyn do?

To be honest, Peter Pettigrew really doesn't understand what the Dark Lord wants to do. Thinking about it on his knees, he knows that just this kind of people can't deal with that **** Mudblood at all.

Although Peter Pettigrew hated Snape, he still agreed with the other party's fair evaluation of the Mudblood.

If you want to kill the opponent, don't give the opponent any chance, otherwise, don't touch the opponent easily, so as not to startle the enemy.

However, the arrogant Selwyn didn't think so. He broke into the other party's house rudely. After finding no one there, he almost set fire to the mudblood's house and tortured the mudblood's neighbor. , learned the cruel truth that their family immigrated to the United States after they won the lottery jackpot.

After learning that the Mudblood had escaped, Peter Pettigrew could not help but heave a sigh of relief, but his accomplice Selwyn seemed a little out of breath.

To be honest, it is a bit difficult to hunt down a wizard across the ocean. The most important thing is that the wizarding world in the United States is not very friendly to wizards, and foreign wizards need to be strictly controlled. necessary trouble.

Before the Dark Lord intends to reveal the news of his return, they can't do too much, otherwise they may be exposed in advance and make the Dark Lord unhappy.

If the Dark Lord is not happy, bad luck to them all.

"what to do?"

"How do I know." Selwyn was very irritable.

Voldemort's order was to kill the Mudblood, if they couldn't even do this simple thing...they would definitely lose the Dark Lord's trust and possibly suffer torture.

"Maybe, that Mudblood is still in England." Peter tentatively said, "That guy just guessed that we were looking for him and hid. After all, he can prophesy."

"Then what should we do? Besides, do you have evidence?" Selwyn said impatiently, "Tell me your solution."

Finally, Peter Pettigrew came up with a bad idea, and asked a master prophet to divination where he could find Albert Anderson.

If anyone is the best at finding people, it must be the master of prophecy.

Back then, Peter Pettigrew was arrested in Azkaban Prison in this way. Even if no one could be found, a master prophecy would surely calm the Dark Lord's anger. Let alone them.

The question now is where to find the Master of Prophecy?

No matter where they are, master prophecy is always rare and respected, and they even rarely hear others talk about master prophecy.

Hogwarts seems to have a divination professor, but they all know that he is a liar, and there are actually a group of liars in Knockturn Alley, but they are all a group of liars. If they can predict the future, they will not be so downcast that they live in Knockturn Alley .

Selwyn had to ask his colleagues for help, and by the way, find out the master prophecy masters in Britain for nearly two centuries one by one, to see which master prophecy might not be dead yet.

Finally, they focused on Cassandra Vabraski, the author of "Putting Through the Fog to See the Future". There is no doubt that wizards who dare to write divination books have more or less divination ability, especially those who can As a textbook for Hogwarts, Cassandra Vabras is definitely not a liar. It just so happened that Malfoy also recommended this old man who had lived for a century to Selwyn.

The two brought a dozen dark wizards to visit the old man who had just lived for a century.

However, Cassandra Vabras seemed to know that someone was looking for her, so she changed her residence directly, leaving the group of uninvited evil guests empty-handed.

When Selwyn intends to pry out the residence of the master of prophecy from the mouth of Cassandra Vabras' descendants. By chance, they found the whereabouts of Cassandra Varbras, and met the aging master of divination along the way.

The old woman seemed to know what they were looking for, so she simply agreed to divination for them.

Cassandra Vabras is not the kind of fake B that Albert is. What she can see from the crystal ball is far from being as easy as Albert.

According to the divination results on the crystal ball, the person they are looking for will appear in a village in the next few days, and that village is likely to be Nicolas Village in France.

This should be the statue of the Lemay couple, I went there once when I was young.

Finally Cassandra saw the Dark Mark and thought they might have succeeded in killing their target, which made her a little sad.

It is hard to say whether the content of divination is true or not, so after some discussion, the two decided to invite each other as guests.

However, just when they were about to take each other away, they met Rufus Scrimgeour, Director of the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic, who also had an appointment with Cassandra Vabras, and his companions.

Fortunately, there were several dark wizards in Knockturn Alley covering up, and the identities of the two were not revealed, but they also failed to capture Cassandra Vabras, because the old woman seemed to know that someone was going to kill her. Unfortunately, he was about to take the opportunity to slip away, but was stunned by the stun spell.

Under Peter's reminder, Selwyn did not kill Cassandra in the end, but temporarily erased her memory.

The Dark Lord may have times when he needs to use his opponent's abilities, especially if the Order of the Phoenix is ​​suspected of having a famous fortuneteller, maybe they also need a fortuneteller.

After getting rid of Scrimgeour, the two hurried to Nicolas Village in France after discussing, trying to ambush the upcoming Albert Anderson.

However, after a few days passed, they didn't even see the figure of that person, which made them wonder whether they were being tricked by that old woman again?

In order to appease the dark wizards who helped to keep an eye on him, Selwyn had to pay for it out of his own pocket to give some benefits to those dark wizards who were willing to help.

No good, who wants to waste time with you here?

Even Voldemort's face is not easy to use, can't he be provoked or hide?

Of course, if Garen gets paid every day, they are naturally willing to spend time with them here. The longer the time, the happier they will be.

In a house in Nikolai Village, Peter and Selwyn are discussing countermeasures.

Where did you say their house came from?

Of course he was looking for someone to borrow. Peter is very good at finding people to borrow houses. Didn’t you see that even the owner of the house has no objections?

This remote house has temporarily become their lair.

"They don't live here."

Peter has turned into a rat and wandered around the village several times, so he's pretty sure the Mudblood doesn't live here.

"So, we were really tricked by that old woman?" Selwyn looked very angry, as if he was considering whether to find a chance to kill the old woman.

"Probably not. She is willing to show up on her own initiative, so she shouldn't lie to us, otherwise we won't be able to find her at all." Peter shook his head and reminded, "The prophets are very evil, just wait a little longer!"

Selwyn's face twitched, there was no way he could do it, he was the one who came out of Gallon, so the guy in front of him could naturally stand there and say such sarcastic remarks.

He actually wanted to share the money equally with the guy in front of him, but Peter Pettigrew's pockets were cleaner than his face, and there was no Garen in them at all.

As for the wealth of the Peter family, let alone.

In order to complete the task, Selwyn finally nodded his head and reluctantly agreed to Peter's proposal. He also didn't want to leave an impression of incompetence and ineffectiveness in front of the Dark Lord.

While the two were discussing, there was a short noise outside, and then the door of the room was knocked open, and a black wizard ran in panting, and shouted at them: "It's not good, black Magic Mark, someone has used the Dark Mark above the village."

At this moment, a gigantic skeleton composed of a cloud of green smoke floated above Nicholas Village, and a large python emerged from the skull's mouth like a tongue.

The Dark Mark lit up the entire village like a terrifying neon sign, and the residents of the village were gradually attracted by the sign in the sky. The expressions of those wizards who knew the meaning of the sign changed suddenly, and the originally quiet village gradually became noisy.

"Who, what idiot used the Dark Mark here."

Selwyn roared angrily, he found that the Dark Mark was above their house.

"Only Death Eaters know how to use this spell, and none of us know how to use it." A dark wizard reminded in a low voice, "I suggest that we better leave quickly, otherwise we will definitely cause big trouble."

Voldemort wasn't as notorious abroad as he was in England, but they still heard about the Dark Lord.

Any wizard who can be called the Dark Lord is a dangerous existence, and Gellert Grindelwald is the best case.

"Did you do it?"

Selwyn looked at Peter angrily. Here are the two of them who know how to use the Dark Mark.

If it wasn't him, it was Peter.

"How is it possible, are you crazy? I've been here all this time." Peter's nose was almost crooked, and he seemed to think of something, his face suddenly turned pale, and he murmured, "I know, I know, it must be that mud That guy is so powerful, he must know we're here, he wants to kill us, he wants to kill us, that's why the Dark Mark is over our house."

"Be vigilant around and prepare to retreat."

Selwyn's face was ugly. Although he wanted to kill that guy, his brain hadn't been overwhelmed by anger.

Whoever did it, they had to leave Nicholas Village before the French Aurors could react.

They cannot be revealed yet.

Before leaving cautiously, Peter Pettigrew did not forget to remove the Dark Mark from the sky.

…

"How did you know how to say this spell?"

In Nicole Flamel's house, Isobel looked at the Dark Mark above the sky through the window, and couldn't help asking.

"This is not a difficult spell, but because it is the mark of the mysterious man, it is considered black magic."

Albert threw an apologetic expression at the LeMay couple, "Their people are watching here, and I have to find a way to drive them away."

"You don't need to apologize to the child, it's not your fault." Nico comforted softly, "However, it seems that you are in trouble."

"Do you still remember the mysterious man? It's the guy who missed the Philosopher's Stone. He was resurrected a while ago." Albert explained helplessly.

"It's really bad news, I remember Albus has been working on it." Perenal brought them a snack, "But it's not easy, is it."

"Yeah, it's not easy, but someone needs to stand up." Albert sighed.

"I thought you planned to keep them here." Isobel looked at the disappearing Dark Mark and said softly.

"Let's forget it. It's good to keep a group of rookies. If this wave is eliminated, there will be a batch of more powerful ones next time, and that will be a problem." Of course Albert also thought about keeping that group of people. Come down, but after repeated hesitation, he gave up and decided to insert a secret among these people.

With powerful magical power, Albert's Imperius Curse is not something that others can easily break free from. That guy doesn't even know who is controlling him.

As for the Dark Mark, it was naturally a spell that was fired towards the sky by some unlucky guy who was controlled by him with the Imperius Curse.

Even if they are found out in the end, it doesn't matter, they have no evidence anyway.

"Are you still going to participate in the duel competition?" Nico asked gently.

"It's a little risky." Perenal said.

"I'm ready. If there's no other way, I'll just give up." Albert said without thinking.

"That's good, don't force it."

"By the way, I heard that you survived the Triwizard Tournament. You don't mind sharing it with us. Dumbledore said it was a wonderful match." Nicole May asked Albert for his opinion with a smile , He wanted to see Albert's ability, and also had some fun for himself. Although he was old, he also liked some lively things.

"Oh, of course no problem." Albert did not refuse, he was going to ask Mr. Nico if there was any way to store this part of the memory and turn them into a book.

The Pensieve flew to the table following the guidance of the magic wand.

Albert pulled out his own memory and put it into the Pensieve. Under the guidance of Nico, several people entered his memory and returned to the scene of confronting the fire dragon at the beginning, and they were near Albert, facing each other at close range. fire dragon.

"This battle suit is very cool, it is made of dragon skin!" Nicole Flamel looked at Albert's clothes and commented.

"Yes, the advertisement for the Fengya wizard clothing store, they gave me a set of fire dragon suits." Albert explained, "Of course, it's fine without this gorgeous set."

"Those guys have good eyesight." Perenal said with a smile, "What a handsome boy, I am looking forward to the day you get married."

"It's not far away, and Professor Dumbledore has promised to come to the wedding." Albert told the two old people the good news, "The location is France."

"Are you going to be in France?"

"Yes, they have a manor over there, and Headmaster Dumbledore is here. I don't think anyone will disturb us so ignorantly." Albert said softly.
