Chapter 344: Ridiculous Proposal
Both Peter Pettigrew and Walton McNeil were insignificant characters in the original work, with no particularly outstanding magical abilities or strong family backgrounds.
It can be said that among the eight prisoners present, these two are the easiest to subdue.
Trowen Selwyn and Cobain Yaxley were both from powerful pure-blood families. In terms of wealth, status, and power, they all belonged to the same echelon as the Malfoy family.
The Foley family and the Slahorn family are slightly inferior. They belong to the second echelon among the Holy 28 pure-blood families, similar to Crouch and Bones. They are still not family forces that can be treated lightly. However, Claude Foley and Squire Slahorn, who were tied here at this time, were only children from the side branches of the family, and their status and weight were not enough to attract Schelling's attention.
As for Andrei Inov and Bahaza Bol, they were even more disdainful to Schelling.
Judging from the surname, Yinov is likely to be a pure-blood family from an Eastern European country like Karkarov and Dolohov, and has no roots in Great Britain.
Of course, the Slavic nation's aggressive and aggressive nature means that the wizards from there all advocate force and their actual combat abilities are not too bad.
As for the Bol family, well, Xie Lin still remembers this surname. In the Slytherin House at Hogwarts, three years older than Xie Lin, there was a man named Lucian Bol, who was once the leader of Slytherin. One of the hitters of the Dodgers and a loyal follower of Hector Foley, the former president of the Ghost Club.
According to the current situation, the Bol family should be one of the affiliated families of the Foley family, and its power should be similar to that of the Gower family and the Crabbe family.
Schelling first untied the snake binding technique on McNeil in the same way, then asked Salif to pour healing potion into him, returned the wand to him, and then asked him to stand aside.
"Now, it's your turn..." Xie Lin said jokingly: "Selwyn, Yaxley, the head of the pure-blood family, look at what you look like now, it is really insulting to the sacred 28 Pure Blood The title of the family - when your children planned to deal with me in Slytherin, did you ever think about today? "
"You..." Selwyn was furious, but when he thought of being killed by a knife at this moment, he could only swallow all the harsh words in his mouth, "You, don't go too far!"
Yaxley was the first to come to his senses. He was worthy of being the head of a pure-blood family who was accustomed to the world. He said calmly: "Master Malfoy, now we have become your captives. You can't even resist if you kill or chop us..." ...I think that since you spared our lives, you definitely didn't do it to humiliate us. Looking at the experiences of Pettigrew and McNeil, I think... As a powerful pure-blood family, we can still use you. Is it valuable?”
Xie Lin nodded, but said unequivocally: "Then tell me, what are your plans?"
Yaxley pondered for a moment, then said in a calm and confident tone: "Master Malfoy, I think, at this moment, no one can deny that you have proven your strength, and you have also been praised by pure people like us. The qualifications to follow the blood family... Even if your philosophy towards the pure-blood family is different from ours, I think that now that we are prisoners, we have no qualifications to bargain with you..."
At this point, Yaxley paused slightly and raised his head slightly, but saw that Xie Lin showed no expression, and even his face showed neither joy nor sorrow, and he was obviously not moved by his words.
Although Yaxley felt guilty, he could only bite the bullet and continue: "I swear on the name of the ancestors of the Yaxley family, I am willing to join the camp of the Malfoy family and work with the Malfoy family from generation to generation. Form an alliance with each other, and follow the leadership of the Malfoy family. On the premise of not harming the family's interests, all the manpower and material resources of the Yaxley family will cooperate with any action of the Malfoy family without limit - Master Malfoy, do you think this is okay? ?”
"Hahahahahaha..." Xie Lin laughed arrogantly, as if he had heard some ridiculous joke. As he laughed loudly, a violent and huge black shadow appeared behind him, and the entire cell was suddenly filled with the aura of violence, evil, and blood.
The penetrating laughter echoed in the closed cell, constantly impacting the souls of the people present. The torches on the wall were also affected by an invisible force and became flickering and ethereal.
Yaxley was the first to bear the brunt. A wave of nausea hit him, and he couldn't help but open his mouth and vomit out the filth.
The remaining people also felt uncomfortable. The terrifying pressure made their bodies tremble continuously. Their already weak bodies suddenly stiffened, and their whole bodies stretched straight. Then they fell into paralysis, drooling, snot, tears, All the feces and urine flowed out uncontrollably.
Today, Xie Lin's soul magic is no longer what it used to be. He doesn't even need to cast any spells, he can directly pierce the fear, pain, and despair into the souls of the target people within the range through the coercion emanating from his body, and Salif, who is also standing near Xie Lin, Hidden Rat and McNeil were not affected at all.
Xie Lin shook his head and looked at Yaxley who was still retching with pity in his eyes, as if he was looking at an... idiot...
The family power of Selwyn and Yaxley was indeed too important in Great Britain to be ignored.
However, this does not mean that they can feel good about themselves.
According to Schelling's observation, Yaxley thought the offer he proposed was so tempting!
To be fair, if Yaxley's proposal was put in the past - when he was not far behind the Malfoy family in strength; or when the two families cooperated in some political and business fields, it would still be a good proposal.
However, at this moment, Sherin has shown magical strength that is enough to rival Yaxley's master Voldemort, and Yaxley is just a prisoner of Sherin -
Alliance? What qualifications does he have to form an alliance with Sherin? He is not even worthy of an alliance with the Malfoy family!
"Did you make a mistake?" Sherin sneered, "Ally with me? Are you qualified?"
"Well, to make you understand, let me tell you! There are families that have allied with the Malfoy family..." Sherin said slowly, "For example, Goyle, Crabbe, Burke, Parkinson, these are long-term allies of the Malfoy family, and have had a deep friendship with my father Lucius for many years..."
"For example, Greengrass and Nott, these two families chose to ally with me when I was still young, and gave me a lot of resources and help in the early days of building my power, not to mention that the two young ladies of the Greengrass family and the young master of the Nott family also have a deep friendship with me."
"I, Sherin Malfoy, am not an ungrateful person. The friendship between these families and me is priceless. I cherish it very much, whether it is now or in the future, no matter how big the Malfoy family grows in the future, No matter how powerful they are, I will treat these allies as always. "
"As for the Bones family and the Carrow family, they did extend their hands of friendship to me a little late, but it was still before I had the strength to rival the magician. What's more, Susan, the eldest daughter of the Bones family, and the two daughters of the Carrow family are also important cadres in my organization. Just based on this relationship, I will treat them well. "
Speaking of this, Xie Lin's tone suddenly turned cold, and he said sternly: "And you - you once suppressed my Malfoy family, and you were my enemy because of the pure blood concept. Last night, you also chose to return to the Death Eater camp and eventually became my captive. After all this, how dare you - how dare you think that I will form an alliance with you? Where on earth do you get the confidence to think that I might accept your ridiculous proposal? "
