HP's Platinum Temptation

At the corner of Diagon Alley, at the entrance of a shop that was not very lively, two wizards who had cast the Disillusionment Charm arrived at this location one after another.

Next to it is a continuous flow of people, and the hustle and bustle of the ears.

"You don't need to follow, Malfoy, this is my mission!" The two hidden people suddenly lowered their voices and said angrily.

"This is a task assigned by the Dark Lord. Of course I have the obligation to ensure the smooth implementation of the task." A calm and slightly disdainful tone responded: "And the Dark Lord asked me to come."

"Hmph, you will soon find out that you are redundant!" After a more disdainful tone, the corner returned to calm.

The area in front of me is located at the end of Diagon Alley, the entrance of Gringotts, which is much wider than the middle of the alley.Therefore, it is very easy to hide a few people here.

"The task over there has been completed, and several professors have rushed over there!" A witch in a dark purple wizard robe turned into another alley from the intersection of Diagon Alley as if unintentionally.When passing several empty barrels, the witch moved her lips slightly and said.

"Action!" The black-robed witch hidden behind the illusion spell made a bloodthirsty and crazy voice.

The figures of the other two men in black robes who also used the illusion spell to hide their figures in the crowd were exposed as they cast the spell.

call out--

The sound of the curse cutting through the space is extremely harsh even in the noisy background.

Ah!

A sharp cry broke the seemingly peaceful appearance.

Out of the corner of Lucius' eyes, he noticed that the woman next to him was agitated by the screams and the stimulation of the magic spell lighting up, and the disillusionment spell that had been maintained had also disappeared due to the movement of the body.A look called fanaticism appeared on the woman.Her originally disheveled hair seemed to be slightly blown away, her eyes were wide open, and she couldn't help opening her mouth, and the hand holding the wand also seemed to have blue veins due to the force.

bang——

There was a sound that seemed to be the effect of the defensive curse.

The excited expression of the woman in Lucius' vision became crazily distorted in a second, and her face quickly turned from flushing red to turquoise.

Things take a turn in the fight scene that Lucius didn't expect.

The original target was the little witches led by Hogwarts professor and their parents, but Bellatrix, a crazy woman, found the family in front of her in the Leaky Cauldron.The adult men wore straight Muggle suits, while the adult women wore Muggle dresses, and the two children they brought were also dressed in Muggle dresses.

It looks like there is a Muggle family in the family who has already attended the lower grades of Hogwarts (Theodore's height does not look like he has not yet entered the first grade because of the Lambert family genes), and The social status should not be low among Muggles.

For this reason, Bellatrix gave up her plan of just staying in the bar and waiting for the news, and decided to watch the wailing of this family of Muggles in person.And Lucius, who was sent by the Dark Lord to assist and supervise, naturally had no choice but to follow.

Bellatrix had expected to catch a big fish.

But her wishes were shattered the moment the middle-aged, Muggle-looking couple quickly drew their wands in defense.

Moreover, a furious roar also unexpectedly appeared in this battle situation, and the new entrant greatly relieved the pressure on the middle-aged couple who were initially a bit at a loss.The good situation of the operation was destroyed in an instant.

The huge gap made Bella roar.With a flick of his hand, he shot Cruciatus, and then he was about to rush forward.

Lucius felt the magic power starting to stir around him, as well as several auras that were approaching.Even though he hated the woman beside him extremely in his heart, he quickly grabbed her arm and stopped her movement.

At the same time, the spell that was about to hit the youngest child also missed the direction because of his brother's timely protection.

"Damn Malfoy, let me go!" Bella was tugged by Lucius' unprepared movement, and the two took several steps back at the same time.Then it was blocked by the illusion spell released by Lucius again.

"Stupid, do you still want to continue hunting? It's obviously a family of pure-blood wizards. Do you think that ordinary hemp-blood wizard families can teach children with such responsive qualities? If you have this spare time, think about it later." How do you explain to the Dark Lord that you ruined the whole plan because you insisted on waiting for this family!" Lucius shook off Bella, who was under his restraint, with a cold voice.

Glancing at the family that had been protected by the rushed wizard, Lucius disapparated without hesitation, ignoring the source of the irritability that had occupied his sanity just now.

"Stupid!" After listening to Lucius' account of the incident before and after, the Dark Lord slapped Bella loudly with his backhand.The scarlet in the eyes was so rich that it seemed to bleed.Whenever the Dark Lord is extremely angry, the color of the eyes will change noticeably.

"Master, I..." Bella, who was knocked to the ground by a slap, shrank and knelt on the ground, not daring to get up.Trembling, she wanted to climb to the Dark Lord's feet.

The Dark Lord snorted coldly, kicked Bella away, and walked back to his throne.He stood with his back to everyone, his hands raised at his sides showing his intense anger.

"The plan failed! Who can tell me! Why?" Turning around and sitting down abruptly, the Dark Lord's wand pointed at Lucius: "Say it!"

Lucius, who was suddenly pointed at by his wand, couldn't help but tremble, and replied in a calm and respectful tone as much as possible: "Our plan has not been leaked. But apart from the fact that the target is not a Muggle, there is another important The reason is that the wizards in Diagon Alley at that time, besides those members of the Order of the Phoenix, there were others who dared to fight against the great Dark Lord."

"Yes! My master! We have distracted all those professors!" Bella crawled closer to the throne, trying to defend herself: "It's a few Hogwarts students."

"A few students ruined your plan?!" The Dark Lord's horrified eyes made everyone shudder, and no one dared to speak.

"Kill him! No matter who it is! Kill him!" The violent pressure of the Dark Lord blew up the throne under him, and he appeared in front of Lucius almost instantly, his right hand as pale as dry wood fiercely He squeezed Lucius' chin tightly, and the roar sounded like rolling thunder just a short distance before Lucius' eyes.

The Dark Lord's movement was so strong that it pressed down on Lucius' throat.But he didn't dare to resist at all.A painful expression appeared on his face, and his exquisite face faded away.

"It's from the Black family, and from the Potter family belonging to the Order of the Phoenix!" Another Death Eater who was also present responded hurriedly to the Dark Lord.

"The Black family!" The moment he heard the name, the Dark Lord released his right hand, and Lucius fell to the ground, coughing violently.

"No! My master! That's a traitor from the Black family!" Bella screamed in horror.

"Say! Who is it?"

"Sirius Black!" Bella got up, her tone very anxious: "Master, please don't doubt the loyalty of the Black family! That is a disgrace to our family! I will definitely clear up this rebellion for the family!"

Sirius Black, Bellatrix and Narcissa's cousin.

Compared with the Bella and Narcissa family, another branch of the Black family, although it also follows the glory of pure blood, obviously does not have any family members who are members of the Death Eaters.

When Narcissa learned about Bella's remarks from Lucius, she couldn't help becoming anxious for her cousin.Compared with Bella, Narcissa has a closer relationship with that family.

"What should we do now? Auntie has been angry for a long time about Sirius entering Gryffindor, and now it is happening again."

"The Dark Lord will never let it go." Lucius said with some helplessness in his tone, "This is almost the first time a plan has completely failed. The Dark Lord cannot accept any failure."

"But what will they do if the mysterious person angers the aunt?"

"Now the Dark Lord's anger is only aimed at this incident. Before that, find a way to draw a line between them and Sirius Black. Otherwise, the Dark Lord will definitely let them hand them over."

"Is it enough to draw a clear line? I will write to my aunt now."

"Definitely not enough." Lucius clenched his fist: "This operation lost a Death Eater. I guess, the Dark Lord will require their family members to be marked with the Dark Mark. It has been a while since the last time a new member joined Yes. You have to remind them of that and probably be prepared.”

Narcissa's letter to Mrs. Black eventually sparked one of Sirius' most violent quarrels with his parents, and he eventually escaped from the house and hid in the Potter's house.At the same time, he was expelled from the Black family.

The Dark Lord was not satisfied with the result.

The Dark Lord finally decided that Hogwarts should pay for it because of the fact that the whole plan was ruined by Hogwarts students.

Before Christmas 1976, the Dark Lord held a banquet for new recruits.

During a Hogsmeade weekend, the Death Eaters staged a mayhem attack.Because there was no problem with the number of students who returned to school in the end, no one noticed that irreversible changes had taken place in the few students who returned late.

When Lucius saw his only friend among the new members, Severus Snape who was five years behind him, he didn't say a word.It was just that the fist hidden in the pocket was clenched and loosened repeatedly.

Snape's exposure to the Dark Lord was not recent, but Lucius had never taken the initiative to ask him to join the Death Eaters.Although he knew it was only a matter of time.

But when he saw Snape swearing allegiance to the man on the throne with slightly excited eyes, and being marked with the Dark Mark, Lucius clearly felt the helplessness and wavering deep in his heart.

Because of Sirius' escape, he was protected by the Order of the Phoenix.Eventually, his brother Regulus Black joined the Death Eaters.
