Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs - Chapter 721

The scale of this raid completely exceeded the expectations of the three Harrys.
They left Umbridge in place, hoping to gain some time, and then fought back while running towards the exit of the building.
Hermione had seen the structure of this building in advance, and they knew that Death Eaters would not be able to seal all exits: unless hundreds of Death Eaters came.
The three of them rushed out of the narrow doorway, and then found themselves surrounded by Death Eaters.
At that moment, they understood that what they thought was impossible before had really happened.
“How many people are here…”
The three of them tried their best to resist the curse, but they had no chance.
Soon, the three fell to the ground.
A cheer erupted among the Death Eaters.
But none of the hundreds of wizards here came forward.
A man walked out of the crowd and stood in front of the three Harrys who were lying on the ground.
“You guys are so unlucky.”
That’s Lucius Malfoy.
…
When the three Harrys woke up, they found themselves locked in a dungeon.
There are others here besides them.
“Mr. Ollivander?”
An aging wizard was lying in the corner of the dark stone room. It was Ollivander who had given Harry the wand.
But Ollivander was so weak that he couldn’t even speak and just hummed to the two of them.
The three Harrys looked at him with cold hearts.
This is what Death Eaters do to their captives, and Ollivander is visibly tortured.
Harry turned and glanced at the stairs, which were blocked by iron bars.
Just then, a man walked down.
“Harry Potter…”
Harry looked at him and sneered: “Lucius Malfoy…”
Lucius Malfoy didn’t look like he had just captured Voldemort’s most hated enemy. There was no excitement or pride on his face, but there was a hint of absent-mindedness that Harry couldn’t see clearly.
“Have you been to Hogwarts…”
Although he didn’t know why Lucius Malfoy asked this, Harry nodded.
Lucius Malfoy was silent for a moment: “Are there any students…”
Ron sneered and shook his head: “They are all very good, and none of them defected to the Death Eaters.”
Lucius Malfoy’s eyes flashed, but he said nothing and just opened the iron bars.
“Harry Potter.”
“The master wants to see you.”
Harry nodded and walked out of the bars.
Behind him, Hermione wanted to reach out, but hesitated but did not stop Harry.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
Harry nodded to Hermione and Ron, then followed Lucius Malfoy up the stairs.
Coming up from the stairs, there is a large room. The decoration here is simple, the walls are made of stones, and the room is very small, only the size of a brick.
In the center of the room, there was already a person waiting.
It was Voldemort.
“Long time no see, Harry…”
Voldemort looked at Harry, smiled casually, and played with his wand in his hands.
Harry glanced at it, and a guess flashed in his mind.
“Long time no see, Voldemort.”
Voldemort smiled: “You already know that little trick. Although it’s not worth mentioning, I managed to catch several resisters with this method…”
“They cherish animals now. It’s a miracle that they have even one or two.”
Harry said nothing.
The Voldemort in front of him had completely changed.
Although Voldemort used to be invincible and proud, he had never thought of being so arrogant now, and he no longer even deliberately maintained the majesty of the Lord of Death Eaters.
But that’s because Voldemort’s real opponent is now gone.
Dumbledore was dead, Lu Ke was seriously injured, everyone in the Order of the Phoenix disappeared, and Harry and the three fled in confusion.
Voldemort became truly invincible.
“Harry, would you please do me a favor and write a letter?”
Harry looked at Voldemort coldly and shook his head silently.
Voldemort sighed: “Look at you, why can’t you live a more relaxed life?”
“Just like Lu Ke, wouldn’t it be nice to hide when you get hurt?”
Harry remained silent.
Voldemort nodded: “Even without your autograph, I think Lu Ke will know that you have been brought into Malfoy Manor, that’s enough.”
He looked at Harry with a look of pity: “You see, as long as you are strong enough, you can succeed without using any tricks.”
“Wait patiently below, you will see Lu Ke soon.”
“At that time, there will be no more resisters in this wizarding world.”
After Voldemort waved casually, Lucius Malfoy pushed Harry back into the dungeon below.
Then Lucius Malfoy left.
Hermione and Ron looked at Harry worriedly, but he was not hurt.
“We are now the bait for Voldemort to lure Lu Ke into his own trap.”
Harry lowered his head and was silent for a moment.
“Where are our wands?”
Hermione shook her head: “It was taken away. I don’t know where it is.”
The three of them looked at each other, speechless and helpless for a moment.
…
late at night.
Malfoy Manor was silent.
Death Eaters patrolled the area, but they tried not to make any sound.
Even the Death Eaters who used to eat, drink and make noise in the castle no longer made any noise.
This is a trap that has been prepared.
All that remains is when the prey shows up on its own.
At this moment, a figure quietly appeared under the wall of Malfoy Manor.
That’s Lu Ke.
Just as Voldemort thought, Lu Ke knew the news that the three Harrys had been captured almost immediately, and he did show up.
It’s just that at this time, Lu Ke was not really panicked as Voldemort expected.
He silently jumped over the wall and entered Malfoy Manor.
Almost instantly, a huge black snake appeared out of thin air and bit Lu Ke.
Lu Ke smiled and then took a step back.
He crashed backward through the wall of the manor and out of its confines.
The giant snake has plunged hard to the ground and moved forward, like a mudslide during a flash flood, rushing forward unstoppably.
Lu Ke just stepped back.
He was very fast, but despite this, the snake quickly caught up.
But just when the giant snake’s fangs were about to bite Lu Ke, it suddenly disappeared.
Lu Ke stood there and smiled.
Since this is a trap, it has the same characteristics as all traps: it cannot be moved at will.
Of course Lu Ke would not throw himself into a trap, he had his own plan.
At least he wouldn’t “lose” to Voldemort again like last time.
At this time, Death Eaters also began to rush out of Malfoy Manor.
They fought for Voldemort.
