HP's Platinum Temptation

Chapter 80 Rejection

"Now, do you want an unbreakable spell?" Clarence's mouth curled up in a confident arc.

Lucius stared at Clarence, the tip of his stick remained motionless for a long time, and his eyes flickered: "Is it your usual negotiating strategy to make people feel 'surprised'?"

"This is definitely not my intention, it's just that the things left by the former are too shocking. Seriously, can you put away your wands and point them at me? Can it have any effect? ​​You will be shocked by your wands People, I definitely can't keep calm now. Would you like some tea? Calm down early, so we can get into the topic." Clarence reached out and patted another sofa beside his feet: "Although as far as this matter is concerned, we There’s no rush, but against an enemy like that, you always want to be a bit more prepared.”

The two guests were finally persuaded and sat down again.But even Snape, who was not paying attention to this visit at first, became extremely cautious.

"Tell me your request." Lucius raised his chin, and his voice became deeper and more restrained than usual.

"I am very aware of the influence the Dark Lord will bring to this world, and I am also very clear that everything I rely on to rise will only lead me to the opposite of the Dark Lord. The information I have is my advantage, and I I need to give full play to my strengths, deploy a plan that can defeat the Dark Lord, and then use the Dark Lord's left and right hands for my own use." Clarence took out the things in his pocket and put them on the table.

"What is this?" Lucius asked directly, skipping the step of commenting on Clarence's remarks just now.

"As you may ask, why do I know so much?" Clarence leaned forward to the table, looking intently at the exquisite crown he took out: "This is one of the Dark Lord's seven Horcruxes, La Winclaw's diadem."

"Seven? You mean, the Dark Lord has seven Horcruxes?" Lucius let out a cry of surprise, but was interrupted by Clarence's subsequent movements.

Clarence stretched out his fingers and tapped the crown: "Summer, get up."

"What are you doing—" Lucius frowned, watching Clarence impatiently like a child playing with a toy.But soon, his words were interrupted by the milky white spirit body emerging from the crown, and his brows were tightened: "Summer, summer? So your fake surname means winter?"

"Well, yes." Clarence straightened up a little: "Most of the information I know about the Dark Lord comes from Summer. By the way, Summer is the crowned weapon spirit, which has fused the soul of the Dark Lord." Formed in pieces. I am the present owner of the crown."

"So, what are the seven Horcruxes?" Snape asked aloud, "What does this have to do with me? Do I also have a Horcrux?"

"Don't worry, you'll know. Now, let Summer talk." Clarence leaned back on his sofa again, and didn't say a word about the unbreakable spell.

"The Dark Lord started planning to make a Horcrux when he was 16 years old. At the beginning, he successfully made the diary and made his first Horcrux. After that, he and Professor Slughorn proposed I have encountered this problem. Because no one has ever made more than one Horcrux. So he decided to make a total of seven Horcruxes. Then, he found the ring of the Marvolo family, the Slytherin pendant, Hufflepuff Gold Cup and me, and made Horcruxes. The above five are the object Horcruxes of the Dark Lord, and the remaining two Horcruxes, only one is certain, which is the pet of the Dark Lord, Nagini Snake. But the production of this Horcrux must be after me, so I can't be [-]% sure." Summer said the lines fabricated by Clarence calmly.

"So, here are six. Where's the last one?" Snape asked, arms folded.

"The last one is our common speculation." Clarence continued Summer and said: "Before the Dark Lord disappeared, he did not choose the carrier of his seventh Horcrux. But before he disappeared, he also carried out An act of murder. We all know that the famous savior has a scar on his forehead. I recently checked the information on Horcruxes, although there is no record of living people serving as Horcruxes. But there are indeed some left on Horcruxes. traces." Clarence spoke slowly, and at the same time, reached out and turned the diadem on the table over, revealing the back of the diadem: "We are sorry to find a small Small similar traces of lightning. So, the seventh Horcrux of the Dark Lord, it is very likely to be..."

"Harry Potter." Snape's voice instantly became hoarse and dangerous like a snake, and the name that made him most sensitive was pronounced by himself.

"Yes, unfortunately, I think the probability of this guess is very high." Clarence shook his head regretfully.

"You mean, do you think Harry Potter is the connection between the Horcrux and me?" Snape's words were like a snake language, changing the target.

"Isn't it? This should be the reason for you to defect to the Order of the Phoenix." Clarence spread his hands innocently: "Don't ask me why I know, because I won't explain this problem. People always have some things that are related to their lives. Big secret."

"I'm curious, does Dumbledore know this?" Lucius asked with an inquiring expression.

"I don't know about this, but according to my guess, I should have some advantages in terms of intelligence. You know, a person's power is always limited, even the greatest white wizard today." Claren Although Si's words are relatively conservative, his attitude is actually very positive.

In fact, it is a very risky thing for Clarence to tell so much information at once.In addition to part of the information that can be explained by the existence of the crown, there is also a considerable part of the information that cannot withstand scrutiny.From an insurance point of view, Clarence should choose to have sufficient evidence to support it before revealing some key information, such as the fact that Harry is a Horcrux. At the earliest, it should be after Harry enters school.

However, although Clarence was prepared to fight the Dark Lord, it must be a long-term task.However, if the cooperation of Lucius and Snape, the two key figures, could be won earlier, the risk of 'explanation' undertaken by Clarence would be tempting enough.

At the same time, the lack of sufficient reliability is also one of the reasons why Clarence cannot go directly to Dumbledore.

"Why, you didn't choose to take this information and go to Dumbledore?" Snape asked, "He will only pay more attention to Potter's question than me."

"Why didn't Lucius go to Dumbledore with the Horcrux?" Clarence asked back.

"Do you want to say that this is the same reason?" Lucius snorted disdainfully: "The Lambert family and the Malfoy family have very different positions that Dumbledore values."

"Professor Dumbledore is a good man, I like him very much." Clarence shrugged: "I am very grateful for his strong support for the Violet Alliance. But I don't think this can be a reason for him to trust me. I don't The way to completely convince the old man."

"Hmph, you just don't want to be controlled by Dumbledore." Lucius directly exposed what Clarence had just said.

"If you interpret this as my attachment to you, I will be happier." Clarence added: "I like you, Lucius."

Snape frowned when he heard that, but he seemed to want to avoid getting mixed up with his friend's gossip, so he didn't look up, just staring at the diadem.Summer was stared at by Snape, seemed a little unhappy, and went back into the crown with a 'whoosh' sound.

"So, you just know this. It sounds like this information is not enough to guarantee that you can defeat the Dark Lord." Lucius habitually ignored Clarence's seemingly constant confession: "What you said is not enough." I can’t impress me, let alone the alliance you mentioned. This has nothing to do with the cooperation between the Violet Alliance and the Pure Blood Alliance. Even if I can be persuaded by you, the other members of the Pure Blood Alliance will not I blindly followed my choice. In this regard, the Pure Blood Alliance and the Violet Alliance are different."

"Those just now are just background information. As for how to do it, I already have a plan. It is mainly divided into two parts, one is about how to defeat the Dark Lord himself, and the other is about how to avoid or defeat the subordinates. The power of the Dark Lord. Generally speaking, it is a relatively long process. As for why the two alliances and cooperation are important. We all know that once the Dark Lord returns, most of the members of the Pure Blood Alliance, including you, will return To his subordinates. Whether it is because of his strength or because of the Dark Mark on your bodies, it is a restrictive factor. I think that in terms of the wizarding world alone, it is like a huge bowl, and the energy in the bowl is always It is limited. The more we can control, the more we can stand against the Dark Lord in the end. On the contrary, it is the situation we need to avoid as much as possible. And I have always believed that you are the best thing I can leverage the Pure Blood Alliance A strong fulcrum." Clarence said with a smile, seeing the serious expressions of Lucius and Snape, the purpose of this meeting has basically been declared a success.

Snape looked at Lucius, but the latter just lowered his head and didn't respond, as if he was thinking about something.Then, Lucius suddenly raised his head and asked Clarence, "Are these the bargaining chips for the cooperation you want to talk about?"

"Uh, almost. What's the matter?" Seeing the other party's suddenly relaxed expression, Clarence suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that I realized we should leave." Lucius stood up and gave Clarence a very charming smile: "A word of advice before you go, dear Duke's family, the game of the wizarding world The rules are not as simple as you think, goodbye."

The author has something to say: (⊙o⊙) Oh!
