Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

… … So, there are five adults inside, all male. We can't rule out that some might have gone out and not returned yet. No guns have been found so far. However, there are quite a few weapons like machetes… …

Tom drew a crude floor plan on the ground, marking the positions of the men on it.

“Are there any children being held inside?” Leif asked.

“Yes, they're all locked up on the first floor, in that small room on the left. There are eight children in total.” Tom pointed to the smallest room on the floor plan.

“Eight children crammed into such a small room… what animals.” Leif frowned.

Tom didn't comment on this, but said urgently: “I suggest we let the snakes go in first to attack. They'll definitely panic, and then we can sneak in and finish this quickly… It's getting late, and we still have to go to Diagon Alley today!”

“Okay, let's do that.” Leif didn't say anything more and followed Tom through the alley to the back of the detached house.

There was a back door there, but it was locked.

Tom picked up a stone and handed it to Leif. “When things get chaotic inside, we'll smash the lock and rush in.”

Leif glanced at Tom and casually tossed the stone away.

“Why did you throw the stone away?” Tom asked, puzzled.

“Tom… we're wizards!”

Leif gently brushed his right hand over the lock.

“Click!”

The lock opened silently.

《A Complete Explanation of Low-Level Spells》 has a detailed introduction to the unlocking spell.

Tom looked at the neatly opened lock in shock. “You… you even know how to do this?”

“I just figured it out myself.” Leif said vaguely. “Let's get started.”

Tom didn't have time to ask more questions and quickly used Parseltongue to issue the command.

Soon, Leif heard rustling sounds all around.

Then, snakes continuously crawled out from the nearby bushes, eaves, and sewers, and quickly crawled through the cracks in the doors and windows!

After a while, Leif and Tom heard screams of terror coming from inside!

“Now!”

Leif and Tom pushed the door open and rushed in!

… …

A few minutes later.

Tom squatted on the ground, removing a grass snake from the face of a lying man.

He poked the man's stiff face with his finger. “So… how exactly did you do that…?”

He barely had to do anything, and then Leif turned all these people into 'statues'.

“I just figured it out myself. Maybe I just happened to guess a petrifying attack spell?”

As Leif spoke, he took out a large handful of cash from a small box.

This was the cash box he had just found.

“So, can this money really be exchanged for wizarding money? Wizarding money is very different from what we're used to…” Tom said, busily tying up the stiff human traffickers with ropes.

“Don't worry, it can definitely be exchanged. Our existence proves that not all wizards come from wizarding families. That means there must be a place to exchange money… Besides…”

Leif said, tilting the small box to show Tom.

“Even if the paper money can't be exchanged, these can definitely be exchanged…”

Tom looked over and saw that the bottom of the small box was filled with more than a dozen small gold bars!

“Gold is a hard currency everywhere.”

Tom looked at Leif strangely. “You know so much…”

“Cough, cough, I've read a lot of books before… Okay, let's not talk about money. Let's not forget what our 'real' purpose here is.”

As Leif spoke, he stuffed the cash box into a bag and put it on his back.

“Heh heh, I thought you'd forgotten.” Tom said sarcastically.

In his heart, Leif was never a good person, just a better actor than himself!

This time, he said he was here to save people, but in fact, he was just here to make money!

“Of course I haven't forgotten! Take your snakes away first, don't scare the other children. They're not like us.”

Leif was in a good mood and didn't mind Tom's barbed words.

In fact, for Leif, besides a large sum of money coming in, he could theoretically get a large amount of merit points.

The two of them came to the small room at the corner of the first floor.

Although this room was small, the door was made of iron and looked very strong, with an exaggeratedly large lock hanging on the iron door.

When Leif approached the iron door, he could faintly hear panicked voices behind the door.

Obviously, the people inside had heard the commotion outside.

Leif put his hand on the lock.

Tom stared at his hand, hoping to see something.

However… …

“Click!”

Tom couldn't see anything, and the lock was opened directly.

Nothing wrong, one head, one first, one inside, one capacity, one is, one look!

“Squeak…”

The heavy iron door was opened, and a stench rushed towards them.

Tom covered his nose in disgust and hid to the side.

Leif looked behind the door and saw seven or eight children huddled in the corner of the dark room, looking at the door in terror.

“You're safe now. Get out of here quickly!” Leif said loudly.

The seven or eight children looked at each other, not moving.

Seeing this, Leif hardened his face. “Get out of here and line up! Otherwise, I'll whip you!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the seven or eight children ran out in a hurry.

Tom looked at Leif with a knowing look. “See, I knew you were a villain too.”

“Shut up, Tom!”

Leif looked at the children standing in a row in front of him, shivering, and then took out a handful of banknotes from his pocket and distributed some to them.

“Look, those human traffickers have been taken down by my adults. You're free, go quickly! ”

Only now did the children notice that the vicious human traffickers who had captured them before were now all tied up.

Only now did they believe Leif's words.

Of course, except for the fact that there were no adults Leif mentioned in the house, which was a bit strange… …

“By the way, I have another question to ask you. Are all the people here?” Leif asked again.

“There… there's still a man and a woman missing.” At this time, a thin boy said boldly.

“Oh, is it a tall and strong man and a woman with a hoarse voice?”

At this time, the other children also began to nod.

“Well, that's all… … ” Leif glanced at their curious eyes and continued, “They have also been arrested. You guys go quickly, go home if you have to. By the way, don't forget to report the case for me and let the police arrest these guys.”

The children nodded one after another. After thanking them in a low voice, they took the money Leif gave them and left this den of devils.

“Ding! Detected that the host has destroyed a human trafficking den! Rewarding the host with 1000 merit points!”

“Ding! Detected that the future Dark Lord is doing good deeds and accumulating merit due to the host's advice, and the trajectory of his life has changed slightly, rewarding the host with 100 merit points!”

Leif looked at the 1400 merit points displayed in the balance, and his mood suddenly became very comfortable.

“Okay, we should leave too. We still have to go to Diagon Alley!” Tom urged.

Leif waved his hand. “Don't worry, Tom, this time we have money to hitch a ride, don't we… … ”

“Boom!”

Before Leif could finish speaking, the floor of the house suddenly shook violently!

Leif quickly grabbed the sofa next to him.

Tom, caught off guard, was shaken and sat down on the ground!

“Rumble… … ” The ground shook again.

Tom suddenly widened his eyes. “It seems like something is rushing out from underground!”
