Chapter 534: The Forces Behind the Purgeers! Drake’s abnormality!!
With Hagrid, the very dedicated nanny, Peter was relieved to leave the Thunderbird and the eggs in his hands, and then walked slowly along the shores of the Black Lake with Dumbledore.
As for Professor McGonagall, she had no choice but to go back to the office, where she had just noticed several Gryffindor students staring at the thunderbirds lured away by Hagrid.
She wants to make stricter school rules as soon as possible to prevent restless students from sneaking into the forbidden forest.
With these unreliable principals and professors, she felt that the gray hair on her head was even more.
At the lake, Dumbledore was discussing mercenaries with Peter.
“So you went to the United States today and met the purgeers there and their camp?”
Dumbledore asked solemnly, he did not ask Peter why he had gone to America, but when he heard Peter say that there were hundreds of people in a single camp of the purgeers, his expression became solemn.
Seeing Dumbledore’s expression, Peter asked curiously, “Is there something wrong with the Death Eaters lately?” ”
Dumbledore nodded and said, “Severus said that the number of mercenaries among the Death Eaters has increased so much recently that they have basically filled the middle and upper elites. The number of people who had lost before was quickly replenished, and it increased a lot. Therefore, the strength of today’s Death Eaters is stronger than ever! ”
But then he smiled and said, “They had already prepared a big move to attack the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts at the same time, but the process was interrupted by the news of immortality announced by you. Voldemort shifted his main task to finding the phoenix, which caused displeasure among the collaborators. Only to be suppressed by Voldemort with great strength. But if this continues, sooner or later they will have a day when contradictions will erupt, and they don’t know what the situation will be at that time. ”
Peter sneered, “I don’t know if this Voldemort is stupid, or if he sliced himself into silly pieces, recruiting so many mercenary members to join the Death Eaters. Isn’t he afraid that these greedy mercenaries will sooner or later recoil? ”
“Voldemort, he’s not stupid.”
Dumbledore shook his head, “He is confident in his own strength, and he is confident that he can suppress these unruly mercenaries by relying on his great strength. ”
In fact, the Death Eaters under him were no different from these mercenaries. When Voldemort was strong, they would be more faithful and obedient than anyone else. But when Voldemort lost power, these people would escape faster than anyone else. Except for a few loyal men like Bella Cretes, the others did not have their own careful thoughts like mercenaries. So for Voldemort, whether he was a Death Eater or a mercenary, it was just a means at his disposal, and he didn’t care if these people were really loyal to him, as long as they could be used for their own purposes. ”
Hearing Dumbledore’s words, Peter nodded in agreement.
But he still reminded: “Although these mercenaries have always wanted money and did not die, I don’t know what kind of big price Voldemort made to let these mercenaries choose to cooperate with him at such a cost.” ”
“And when I was dealing with the mercenaries this time, I saw a lot of interesting things in the minds of their small leaders.”
Peter said to Dumbledore with a smirk, “Behind these purgators, there is an unclear relationship with the United States Magical Congress. If the Death Eaters and the Purgeers have the help of the Magic Congress, it would be quite interesting! ”
Dumbledore didn’t look too surprised, but looked more solemn, sighed and said, “This is also what worries me the most, the Magical Council has always wanted to dominate the global magical world, to become the most powerful magical government in the world, but magic is not as fast as Muggle technology, and it will take a long time to precipitate.” So over the years, they have used various methods to suppress the ministries of magic of various countries, and secretly acquiesced in cultivating the infamous group of purgators to plunder all kinds of magical knowledge and wealth around the world. ”
“So the British Ministry of Magic has become a thorn in the eye of the Magical Congress?”
Peter asked with interest, “Is the Magical Congress trying to disrupt the British wizarding world by working with the Death Eaters through the Purifier?” So no matter who wins and who loses, the end result is that the power of the British wizarding world will regress, and the Magical Congress will become the ultimate winner? ”
“It’s so much fun!”
Peter praised with a playful attitude, “There are still many people with brains in the Magic Congress, and with such lofty ambitions, such a conspiracy can be figured out.” Unlike the British Ministry of Magic’s group of sacks and rice bags, they think about fighting in the nest and excluding dissidents every day. It seems that sooner or later the British Ministry of Magic will finish playing, and then like the Muggle world, it will be good to become a follower of the United States Magical Congress. ”
Listening to Peter’s sarcastic words and his uncaring attitude, Dumbledore raised an eyebrow, looked at Peter and said, “You’re an Englishman now!” ”
I was a flower grower in my last life, Peter said silently in his heart.
The two skipped the topic and instead talked about the daily life of teaching in the school
It wasn’t until Peter saw Draco sitting alone by the lake not far away that he was a little surprised.
At this time, Draco no longer had the arrogant appearance of the past, and his expression was heavy and worried.
“Draco, how come you’re sitting here alone?” What about Gal Crabbe? Didn’t play with you? ”
Peter walked over to him and asked gently.
“Professor York! Professor Dumbledore! ”
Draco turned his head to see the two men, stood up in a hurry, his expression restrained, his eyes avoiding the two of them, and explained weakly, “I want to be quiet alone, so I didn’t ask them to come together.” ”
“Mr. Malfoy, you look uneasy, do you have anything on your mind?”
Dumbledore said kindly, “If you have a problem that cannot be solved, you can come to us professors, and I think we will be happy to help you solve the problem.” After all, these things should not be a student’s annoyance. You can get along with your friends more, and sincere friendship can always solve a lot of troubles. ”
“I see, Professor Dumbledore.”
Draco nodded, then hurried to farewell, “I’m going back to my dormitory, goodbye Professor Dumbledore!” Goodbye Professor York! ”
Saying that, he buried his head and ran to the castle.
The two looked silently at Draco, who was walking away quickly, until the figure disappeared, and then turned back to look at each other.
“Did you see that? His task…”
Peter looked at Dumbledore with a serious expression.
Dumbledore nodded, looked inexplicably in the direction Draco had left, and sighed, “Little Malfoy’s brain closure technique is obviously very simple, like a fishing net, although it can’t directly break through the barrier, but it is full of holes for the superb Dementor.” ”
“So what are you going to do with him?” Don’t forget that he is close to repairing the vanishing cabinet in the Responsive Room, when the Death Eaters will be able to enter the castle directly. ”
Peter frowned and asked, “And his oath to accept Voldemort’s mission to kill you.” If he doesn’t kill you, he’ll be killed by the Oath Curse…”
Dumbledore pushed the half-moon glasses on the bridge of his nose, his blue eyes flashed, and he said quietly, “Maybe this is an opportunity for us!” ”
