Chapter 796: Crazy Plan!
Looking at the glittering golden fireplace in front of him, Draco was stunned.
Even the well-informed Lucius was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, and then couldn't help but step forward and reach out to touch the golden bricks.
His instinct for years dealing with money told him that this was real gold!
But this ...... How can it be?
Lucius couldn't hide the shock in his heart, he preferred to believe that it was the effect of Transfiguration, but Ivan's magic attainments were too high, so even he couldn't tell the difference......
"Nicol Lemay is my teacher......" Ivan explained lightly, shattering Lucius Malfoy's illusions.
Although he needed the 700,000 Galleons as military expenses to reduce the magic consumption of the Philosopher's Stone, he didn't want Lucius to take this so-called money payment too seriously, thinking that he couldn't do without it......
Nicol Lemay...... Turning stones into gold...... Philosopher's Stone......" Lucius muttered to himself, his face turning pale, and he realized that he had lost the most important chip.
Just as Lucius Malfoy was in despair, Ivan's voice suddenly came. "Didn't you just say that you had important information to report to me? Lucius? ”
Lucius Malfoy suddenly woke up from his distraction, and then remembered that he had another chip, and hurriedly responded.
"Yes, I recently received news that the Dark Lord will have a big operation this month, and the Aurors stationed in Azkaban will have a shift change in fifteen days, and Voldemort is going to try to use this opportunity to save all the Death Eaters in Azkaban when the defense is weak......"
In order to seize this only opportunity, Lucius told everything he knew without reservation, and even broke out several Ministry of Magic officials who had defected to the Death Eaters.
"Very well, this information is kind of useful." Ivan nodded, affirming Lucius's efforts.
Voldemort wanted to rescue the Death Eaters, and Ivan had already received the news, and the Dementors guarding Azkaban told him that they would have a day off in fifteen days.
Of course, this holiday was not given by the Ministry of Magic, but Voldemort told them to rush out of the island guarding the prisoners that day, and attack wizards and Muggles on the way to distract the Aurors.
When Ivan received this information, he determined that Voldemort must have wanted to take the opportunity to rescue the imprisoned Death Eaters, and his previous plan against the Ministry of Magic was determined by this.
Now with Lucius Malfoy on board, there may be some more changes to the plan.
"I have something you need to do, Lucius." Ivan pondered for a moment and spoke.
"And I beg your orders, Lord Hals, whatever I can do!" Lucius replied excitedly.
"That's good! I want you to figure out when Voldemort will do it, and find a way to get ahead of Voldemort in fifteen days, release all the Death Eaters who were locked up in Azkaban, lead them to stir up chaos, and swear to the entire wizarding world that the Dark Lord is back......" Ivan said word by word.
"What?" Lucius looked at Ivan in amazement, almost thinking that he had misheard.
"Need I repeat that?" Ivan's tone of displeasure intensified a little.
"No, I hear you very clearly, Lord Hals......" Lucius hurriedly shook his head, then hesitated. It's just that...... The Death Eaters might not have been willing to believe me, after all, I had turned my back on the Dark Lord once in their eyes. ”
"Don't worry, there will be another Voldemort willing to cooperate with your work......" Ivan said casually as he put his hand on the arm of the sofa and tapped it gently.
Another Voldemort?
Lucius's pupils shrank, and he couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous, could it be that there are two Dark Lords in this world? And one of them is still willing to cooperate with their actions?
Wait a minute...... It doesn't seem entirely impossible!
After a brief moment of surprise, Lucius quickly came to his senses.
He suddenly remembered that he had bought the memories of several Tumbledown Alley wizards with a lot of money some time ago, and saw Ivan cut off one of Voldemort's hands!
As long as the other party casually cuts some flesh and blood as raw materials and boils a compound potion, they can conjure a second Voldemort out of thin air!
With Ivan's level of magic, pretending to be Voldemort would not be revealing......
Thinking of this, Lucius was a little dizzy, this was definitely the craziest plan he had ever heard of in his life!
But because they were crazy enough, the Death Eaters would never have thought that anyone would dare to pretend to be Voldemort and take them away from Azkaban on the agreed day!
"Can you tell me why you wanted to release those Death Eaters early?" Lucius swallowed with difficulty, and asked cautiously.
"Fudge has been Minister of Magic long enough, and now is a wise choice to retire." Ivan said with a sneer.
Retire? Retired, right?
Lucius complained to himself in his heart, and he understood some of Ivan's thoughts.
For the past six months, Fudge has claimed that Voldemort didn't exist at all, and has had the Daily Prophet hype up the idea.
The news of Voldemort's sudden robbery and the havoc of the fugitive Death Eaters in Diagon Alley will undoubtedly turn into a resounding slap in the face and kick him off the throne of the Minister of Magic.
In addition, Lucius did not think that Ivan would spare the fleeing Death Eaters, who would be arrested or killed again by the "Aurors" and "zealous people" who arrived "in time" after wreaking havoc.
Then, as a beautiful political achievement, it was added to the candidate selected by Ivan and became an important help for the other party to run for Minister of Magic.
Lucius couldn't help but shudder, the young wizard in front of him was so bold as to calculate Voldemort and the Ministry of Magic at the same time, such courage was really far beyond his imagination!
The most important thing is that such a careful plan could never be thought up on the fly, and just over 20 days is not enough to complete the preparatory work in the early stage of the plan.
This means that Ivan Hals has known the news for a long time and has been secretly preparing for it.
In addition to himself, there must be other inner demons in the camp of the Death Eaters!
"Lucius, what do you think of this plan, and how sure are you?" Ivan asked.
"Seventy percent, you can gamble! There are two issues that need to be solved, though! Lucius thought carefully for a moment and said solemnly.
"First, our numbers are too small for the Dark Lord to take me to the rescue alone!"
Speaking of which, Lucius glanced at Ivan secretly, as if to ask how many Death Eaters he had planted in the Death Eaters, and how many people could be involved in the plan.
However, Ivan didn't respond, just looked at him with interest, as if expecting him to come up with a solution.
Lucius had no choice but to speak helplessly. "Among the Death Eaters, I'm not the only one who wants to get rid of the Dark Lord's control, many people have rebellious thoughts, and I'm familiar with Gibbon, Crabbe, Goyle, and Gargerson, maybe I can find a way to persuade and control them."
