Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs - Chapter 724

c65 Accident?

The morale of the Death Eaters was greatly improved.

In their eyes, Voldemort was invincible.

But no Death Eater could act faster than Peter Pettigrew.

He was originally hiding among the Death Eaters, and “happily” escaped Lu Ke’s gaze. He has been safe and sound until now, and even has time to constantly encourage the Death Eaters with words to continue fighting.

But now Voldemort has arrived.

Peter Pettigrew’s owner could see him, so of course Peter Pettigrew had to stand where everyone could see him.

He led a charge.

Peter Pettigrew was the tip of the charge.

Lu Ke’s face was expressionless. He lowered his head to avoid the Death Eater’s curse and continued to move forward.

Although he didn’t know when Voldemort’s fatal curse would appear, Lu Ke had slowed down and was ready.

In fact, Voldemort’s curse is already ready.

It was a giant snake swimming underground.

After defeating Lu Ke at Malfoy Manor, Voldemort finally had time to think about the fiasco at the Ministry of Magic.

After careful consideration, Voldemort discovered something that he had always ignored: Lu Ke’s sudden appearance actually relied on digging a hole in the ground.

This is something that almost everyone forgets unconsciously.

In fact, no matter whether it is a terrifying power like Lu Ke or an omnipotent curse, it is not that difficult to operate underground.

Now, Voldemort will use the same trick to defeat Lu Ke miserably.

But until then, Voldemort must wait for the right opportunity.

In front of Voldemort, it was a one-sided battle.

The Death Eaters around Peter Pettigrew finally came to Lu Ke, and then fell one after another.

This was not surprising, but Peter Pettigrew was suddenly filled with regret.

He joined the charge to show off to Voldemort, not to die.

A very simple truth, a dead person cannot benefit from Voldemort’s satisfaction.

So despite having to bear Voldemort’s wrath, Peter Pettigrew chose to turn around and run away without hesitation.

But it’s too late.

Lu Ke’s footsteps followed Peter Pettigrew like a ghost.

The latter turned his head in horror, and then saw Lu Ke already behind him, slashing down with his sword.

Peter Pettigrew raised his arms in horror to stop him, but it was too late.

Lu Ke slashed with his sword, cutting Peter Pettigrew’s right silver arm in two.

At that moment, Voldemort let out a cry of agony.

Of course, amid the noise caused by the Death Eaters, this shout went unnoticed.

Everyone only heard a sharp scream from Peter Pettigrew.

But immediately, another frightening thing happened.

From the middle of the chopped silver hand, a cloud of black smoke burst out, rising into the sky with a huge roar.

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment.

At that moment, Voldemort took action with anger, and a giant snake broke out of the ground, soared into the sky, and hit Lu Ke.

Lu Ke flew away like a kite with its string broken.

The other person was in the air, and the green lightning in Voldemort’s hand was already in front of him. Lu Ke could only use all his strength to raise the sword in his hand to resist.

At the same time, the giant snake rising into the sky did not disappear. Instead, it followed Lu Ke and finally caught up, slamming Lu Ke to the ground again.

It was like a cannon blast. Lu Ke smashed a big hole in the ground, and blood was like an arrow.

Then Lu Ke struggled to stand up, turned around and ran away.

Voldemort roared furiously, but it was masked by the cheers of the Death Eaters.

They didn’t care at all why a cloud of black smoke spewed out from the middle of Peter Pettigrew’s arm, they only cared that Lu Ke was beaten away.

Moreover, he was in a terrible state and seriously injured.

Of course, this is first and foremost a victory for the Dark Lord, but who can say that this is not a victory for the Death Eaters?

So they started a carnival on the spot.

In the midst of the enthusiastic celebration, almost no one noticed that Voldemort left with Peter Pettigrew who fell on the ground with a gloomy look.

They apparated back to Malfoy Manor, where Voldemort left Peter Pettigrew still on the ground and walked into his darkroom.

The man in the bottle is in the room.

Voldemort stood in the darkness, his face uncertain.

He looked up at the man in the bottle.

At this time, Voldemort was filled with doubts.

A simple fact: only Voldemort himself and the Man in the Vase knew that Peter Pettigrew’s Silver Hand was a hidden Horcrux.

Yes, that’s a Horcrux.

And now, this Horcrux was destroyed, right in front of Voldemort.

So a simple conclusion: the man in the bottle is the traitor.

Voldemort was deeply suspicious.

It’s just that he can’t understand how the little man in the bottle did it.

A product of alchemy known to almost all alchemists, the Man in the Vase was so pure that he was unable to lie or even do bad things before being turned into a Horcrux by Voldemort.

This is destined to do everything the villain in the bottle does is driven by Voldemort’s soul as a Horcrux.

And Voldemort himself would never betray him or destroy a Horcrux.

For a moment, Voldemort was in confusion.

But he finally forced himself to calm down.

“Lu Ke…”

Voldemort’s mind flashed through Lu Ke’s expression when he cut off Peter Pettigrew’s arm with a sword.

And his expression when he saw the black smoke rising from Silver Hands.

That should be pure surprise.

His reaction was even slower because of this, and he was knocked out by the giant snake.

In this case, maybe it was just an accident.

Anger rose from Voldemort’s heart.

If a coincidence can destroy a Horcrux, then what’s the point of these Horcruxes created by Voldemort?

And if this is not a coincidence, then how many secrets about Horcruxes does Lu Ke already know?

Voldemort slowly raised his head and looked at the little man in the bottle: “We are missing another Horcrux…”

The man in the bottle just nodded silently.

Voldemort smiled bitterly: “You don’t know?”

The little man in the bottle still nodded silently.

Voldemort nodded: “That’s right…if I didn’t see it with my own eyes…”

He sighed longly: “Do you think this means… Lu Ke already knows?”

The man in the bottle was silent for a moment, and then said: “No.”

Voldemort lowered his head and said nothing.

Everything that had just happened in his mind was repeated all over again.

The key to everything lies in Lu Ke’s expression.

When he met Peter Pettigrew’s charge, there was no excitement or pride on Lu Ke’s face, only a cold killing intent, not even a killing intent.

When he cut off the silver hand, there was no excitement or happiness on Lu Ke’s face.

When black smoke rose into the sky, there was only surprise on Lu Ke’s face…
