Chapter 727 The Dark Lord Is Invincible!
Ivan's words were extremely sharp, and Avery was quickly stunned. He couldn't believe what Ivan said.
"This is absolutely impossible...you are lying!" Avery yelled crazily, struggling and trying to pounce on him.
However, Flan was always alert, and as soon as Avery made a move, he grabbed him by the back of the collar, kicked him to the ground, and forced him to the floor.
Avery struggled to twist his body, trying to break away from Fulen's grasp but was unable to do so. In the end, he had to raise his head with difficulty, stared at Ivan with a pair of eyes, and said angrily.
"You must be lying to me. The Dark Lord is invincible. He is more powerful than any living wizard. You were just lucky enough to escape from your master's hands. I saw with my own eyes that day what you are. How to run away in embarrassment..."
"I don't have to lie to you." Ivan looked at Avery and shook his head, sighing. "Think about it, Avery...I guess you waited all night in the cemetery that night for the Dark Lord to return victorious, didn't you?"
Under Ivan's questioning, Avery's heart gradually sank to the bottom, and the memories in his mind slowly emerged.
As Ivan said, that night a few days ago, after the Dark Lord went to hunt down Harry Potter, he never returned to the cemetery. He only gave them instructions through the Dark Mark, ordering them to temporarily disband and leave. There.
In the next few days, he was unable to see the Dark Lord again. Voldemort's instructions were all conveyed through Severus Snape...
"He was seriously injured, so of course he didn't dare to see you in person!" Ivan read Avery's mind and continued to speak mockingly. "Voldemort doesn't want you to know that the so-called Dark Lord is just a powerful wizard! Like everyone else, he will be injured and die..."
Hearing this, Avery's body couldn't help but tremble. He couldn't believe it, but all the evidence pointed to the fact that the Dark Lord was really defeated...
When he realized this, Avery seemed to have completely lost his energy and lay limply on the ground, only repeating "impossible...this is impossible, the Dark Lord is invincible".
The wizards who watched this scene felt a chill in their hearts, and their fear of Ivan became even more profound.
They heard clearly the conversation between Ivan and Avery just now. Even the stupidest people could realize that their leader, Mr. Hals, had already fought against the resurrected Dark Lord.
Although the specific details of the battle are still unknown, one thing is certain, that is, Voldemort was seriously injured in this battle and was forced to hide, but Ivan was still standing here.
It’s obvious who wins and who loses…
However, there are also many people who doubt this. After all, Ivan's age is too deceptive, and the fear brought by the Dark Lord is deeply rooted in people's hearts.
If Avery's expression didn't look fake and he was hit by the Cruciatus Curse, no one would be willing to believe the fact that the Dark Lord was defeated...
"Pull it down!" Seeing Avery's will almost collapse, Ivan suddenly lost interest and waved his hand, ordering Fulen to take him away.
"Yes, Mr. Hals!" Flan said respectfully with a bit of awe, then grabbed Avery by his heels and dragged him down.
At this time, Ivan turned his head and looked at everyone in the conference room, stretched out his hand to signal, and spoke. "Sit down, everyone! Now we can start talking about some serious business..."
Ivan's gentle tone made the depressing atmosphere dissipate a lot. The wizards gathered in the conference room breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on their chairs.
Doggett and Asia sat on Ivan's left and right hands respectively, and other wizards subconsciously followed them and were divided into two groups.
On the left are the pure-blood wizards and Doggett's friends, while the poor wizards and werewolves from Knockturn Alley are sitting on the right.
It is worth mentioning that the seat next to Asia was empty and no one dared to sit down. It was probably reserved for Fulen.
Ivan did not interfere, silently observing the situation, and then asked with a calm expression what happened in Knockturn Alley during his absence.
Asia didn't hide anything and explained everything in detail, while Docter was also making additions.
Generally speaking, Knockturn Alley has been relatively peaceful this year. The wizard market has resumed operation after some maintenance, which has greatly alleviated the previous lack of funds.
The training of personnel is also carried out every day. Now, 60% of the wizards have successfully mastered the Iron Armor Curse, and the number of law enforcers has increased to more than 20 in one breath, each of whom is an experienced combatant.
"Even the strikers from the Ministry of Magic are no match for the law enforcers in a one-on-one fight! If it's a group fight, twice as many Aurors can fight!" Docter was very proud. said.
There is no hint of exaggeration in these words.
Although the law enforcers have only been trained for about a year, their daily training intensity is several times higher than that of the strikers of the Ministry of Magic. What's more, they themselves have a good foundation and are all selected from the duel field. winner.
If he could recruit more manpower, Docter would even have the confidence to directly compete with the Ministry of Magic!
"Very good, you did a great job!" Ivan glanced at each law enforcer one by one and said with appreciation.
The law enforcers all raised their chests, like soldiers undergoing review. When Ivan said these words, they all felt that the hard practice during this period was worth it.
Walker boldly asked. "Sir Hals, we have been waiting for a whole year. When will we take action?"
The wizards present also looked at Ivan expectantly, eager to try. For the past year, apart from patrolling, training and collecting intelligence, they had nothing to do every day, and they were almost sick.
"Since you all can't wait, let's just make it tonight!" Ivan nodded, then turned to Doggett and asked.
"How many wizards are there in all of Knockturn Alley?"
"Besides us, there are about one hundred and sixty people who have been here for a long time..." Docter hesitated and replied.
Ivan thought about the conditions for completing the system task [Renovating Knockturn Alley] and quickly made a decision. "What you have to do tonight is to bring everyone in Knockturn Alley to the wizard market. I have a few words to say!"
