Chapter 723: There are a few traitors among us
While Ivan spoke, Josel and the others lowered their heads in fear, no one dared to arrange a powerful Dark Lord at will like Ivan.
Ivan, who had been running the Regent's thoughts, clearly sensed the fear in everyone's heart, which made him frown.
It seemed that Voldemort's influence had taken root in the hearts of the people, and a few words from him were obviously not enough to change their minds.
But even so, Ivan did not regret directly announcing the news of Voldemort's resurrection, because it was impossible to hide it anyway, and it was better to take the initiative to say it than to wait for them to learn from other channels and give birth to some incidents!
Thinking so, Ivan had no scruples and continued to speak.
"Now that Voldemort has regained his strength using some means, there is no doubt about it, and I believe that some of you have already gotten the news in advance......"
Ivan looked around at the crowd, his gaze lingering on the faces of the pure-blood wizards for a moment, and finally fixed his gaze on Doggett's. "I guess I'm right, Doggett? Aren't you going to talk to everyone about it? ”
The eyes of everyone present also looked at it in unison.
Doggett was silent for a while, then sighed faintly, and pulled the sleeve of his left arm in front of everyone, revealing the strange dark mark on his wrist.
"A few months ago, the Dark Mark on my hand became more and more obvious, it was a sign of the Dark Lord's growing power, and this situation reached its peak four days ago, and the Black Mark suddenly became very hot...... As Lord Hals said, the man has regained his strength and is gathering his servants......"
"I've never heard you talk about it, Doggett ......," Althea asked, her gaze sharpening as she looked at Doggett.
"I wasn't sure of that until today, so I was going to wait for Lord Hals to come back and have a discussion with you......," Doggett explained, with a look of ease.
After a pause, Doggett perhaps felt that this reason was not enough, and continued. "That time, I didn't answer the call of the Dark Lord, a loser who stirred up chaos by fear, and it wasn't worth following."
Ivan stared at Doggett with scrutinizing eyes.
Of course, he knew that the other party was hiding the news of Voldemort's resurrection, not just for the reason he had just said.
However, Doggett's careful thinking was still within the range he could tolerate, so Ivan didn't mean to break it, nodded his head, and spoke.
"It's a wise choice, taking refuge in a remnant party of the old era is tantamount to self-destruction!"
Doggett was visibly relieved, and the atmosphere on the field seemed to have eased a lot, but Ivan's next sentence quickly brought some people's hearts to their throats.
"It's just a pity that not everyone can be as clear-headed as you and can make the right choice......
"I'm sorry, guys!" Ivan looked at the crowd and said in a disappointed tone. "There are a few traitors among us, who may have lived in the power of the Dark Lord or who have made some promises, but in any case they have turned their backs on us......"
After Ivan's words fell, everyone present looked around, looking for the traitors that Ivan said, and soon questioned each other because of various contradictions.
"Five seconds, I can give these people a chance to repent!" Ivan interrupted everyone's discussion with a sudden remark.
The room was quiet again.
Avery was caught in the middle of a battle between the heavens and the man, and when Ivan said this, he almost wanted to take the initiative.
But reason told him that Ivan would never be so kind to forgive them as traitors.
It is very likely that all this is a bureau, the purpose is to fish out the betrayer, and Avery even suspects that Ivan does not know who the betrayer is at all, but just received some information and deliberately said it to blow them up.
So as long as you can stabilize it, you have a high probability of avoiding this catastrophe!
Avery kept comforting himself, hiding in the crowd without saying a word.
Five seconds passed in a flash, and Ivan's voice quickly shattered his illusions.
"Avery, I'm disappointed in you, I thought you'd at least have some courage to come forward." Ivan said with a sneer.
Under Ivan's gaze, the wizards gathered there spontaneously moved out of the way, exposing Avery who was hiding.
When he heard his name, Avery chuckled in his heart, and he reluctantly maintained the calm on his face, and said in defense. "Your Excellency Hals, I think you've misunderstood......"
Ivan didn't wait for Avery to finish speaking, and spoke again. "You don't think I can't see you when I hide in the crowd that night, do you? Avery? ”
Ivan had no interest in listening to Avery's arguments, and the other party's unprotected brain, which was like a sieve, had already exposed all his thoughts and thoughts.
Not to mention, before leaving the school, he saw most of the faces of the Death Eaters from his glittering memories, including Avery'......
The werewolf wizards immediately drew their wands and surrounded Avery, but no one did anything without Ivan's order.
Avery's mind went blank, and he knew that he was finished, and as soon as his body went limp, he immediately collapsed to the ground, but as if he had thought of something, he crawled all the way to Ivan's seat, and pleaded in a trembling voice.
"Your Excellency Hals! Believe me, I'm being persecuted by the Dark Lord, no, the Dark Lord! He kept torturing me, breaking my will, forcing me to reveal to him the information about the Tumbledown Alley, otherwise... Otherwise he will kill my wife and children......"
"Then you don't seem to be so heinous." Ivan stood up and spoke in a very warm tone. "But I'm a little curious about how Voldemort tortured you......"
"Is it like this?" Ivan looked at Avery, who was kneeling beside him, and waved his wand without warning, his voice becoming very cold. "Crucio~"
"Ahhh
Avery rolled frantically on the ground, snot and tears gushing out.
I don't know how long it took, this torture finally ended, and Avery collapsed weakly on the ground, twitching from time to time like a dead fish, and his godless eyes were blank, as if he didn't understand why Ivan would suddenly move as he spoke.
"I gave you a second chance, but unfortunately you lied to me again!" Ivan looked at the puzzled Avery and said indifferently. "That's not what I received!"
