In the hall, the solemn atmosphere that was good before slowly disappeared.

The Death Eaters waited quietly for nearly an hour, gradually getting impatient, and many of them began to whisper to each other.

Especially those newly joined dark wizards standing along the corners. These people were newly recruited, including werewolves, vampires, and even without the Dark Mark.

At this time.

A Death Eater in the third seat on the right asked.

"Lucius, didn't you say that the master would arrive at eight o'clock?"

A Death Eater opposite this man with a slick tone also said.

"Lucius, you didn't forget to notify the master."

Lucius glanced at the two people and knew that they were Yaxley and Borgin and Burke. The people in the innermost two rows basically knew who was who.

After Yaxley became the leader of the internal inspection team, he really found a few people who were betraying him.

Borgin and Burke made great contributions to the development of the alchemical machine, so these two people have been in a very floating state recently.

Lucius was too lazy to talk nonsense with them.

"The master can come whenever he wants. Do you still want to make arrangements for the master?"

Borgin and Burke immediately shrank his head and said nothing.

And Yaxley slammed the table, pointed at Lucius and said angrily.

"You? You are changing the concept! That's not what I meant. I just want to see the master as soon as possible and report the traitor information during this period."

His words had a good silencing effect. The hall, which was a little noisy just now, was instantly quiet.

Lucius's evaluation of Yaxley was that he was a reckless man and he had to stay away from him in the future.

Borgin and Burke was just an old man.

Lucius also became anxious. Fudge was waiting in the front hall.

Among the black wizards standing against the wall, two wizards, one strong and one thin, who belonged to the wandering werewolves, whispered quietly.

"Kingsley, can we start the meeting now? My legs are numb from standing."

"Tonks, keep your voice down. I told you not to use your real name. Be patient. The Dark Lord is holding a meeting today. He must have something important to announce."

"Why don't we just bring people to raid this place? It's too much trouble now."

"Are you brainless or blind? Can't you see how many people are here?"

"Well, why are there so many Death Eaters? Why don't we just notify Dumbledore directly?"

"......."

The two pretending to be wandering werewolves are Kingsley and Tonks, members of the Order of the Phoenix.

It is impossible for the Death Eaters to hide such a big move from the Order of the Phoenix who are always watching them. So they sneaked in to see the situation first.

However, when the two arrived at the scene, they felt very bad because there were so many Death Eaters without making any noise.

When the Death Eaters developed their power ten years ago, they didn't do it in silence. They broke into the house directly and died if they didn't surrender.

Then they put a terrifying Dark Mark in the sky to create fear for everyone.

This is also why many people said that they were forced to join the trial of a large number of Death Eaters later, and there were not many voices of doubt.

Kingsley carefully observed every Death Eater present through the eye holes of the mask. Unfortunately, except for some very distinctive people who could distinguish one or two, such as Snape, who was as cold as ice in the second seat, there was not much to gain.

However, Lucius once again became the top Death Eater, which can be confirmed.

If you really want to catch him, no one will question it and send him to Azkaban immediately.

When it was almost 8:30, the Dark Lord still did not appear, and the impatient voices in the hall became louder and louder.

"Let's just disperse if there is no meeting."

"That's right, Lucius, don't you know to arrange some food."

"I still have to smuggle a batch of goods in Knockturn Alley tonight, so I don't have time to waste here."

Lucius was also under a lot of pressure and was about to say something to comfort him.

Suddenly the whole room shook, the ground shook like an earthquake, and countless decorations fell to the ground and shattered.

The Death Eaters looked confused and stood up crookedly. Many of the timid ones were already panicking.

"What's going on?"

"Are the Aurors here to catch us? Let's run."

"Lucius, is there any way out? Arrange for us to retreat!"

As the owner of the manor, Lucius naturally knew that the mansion's protective magic was attacked, and it was attacked by a super spell!

After all, Malfoy Manor has been in operation for thousands of years, and there are countless kinds of protective magics covering it, which can make the hall in the center of the manor move. I wonder what the fight outside has been like.

His heart sank. The Dark Lord who hadn't arrived for a long time wouldn't fight with others outside.

Fortunately, his psychological quality was also very good. His face was serious, and he took out the wand from the etiquette stick, put it against his throat and said loudly.

"Be quiet, there are so many of us. Even if the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic come out in full force, they are looking for death. What are you afraid of! Come with me to take a look."

After Lucius said this, he tookHe walked towards the main hall door, waved his magic wand fiercely, and the main hall door was suddenly opened, revealing the night outside.

"Hiss!"

Then all the clamoring sounds disappeared, and there were sounds of people sucking in cold air.

At this moment, the dark sky outside was covered by a large light blue shield, with thunderclouds rolling in the sky and raging flames.

Under the sky, outside the shield.

There was a silver-white "bird snake" with purple electric patterns several tens of meters long, fighting fiercely with a silver phoenix of the same size covered with fire!

The residual power they emitted alone had already caused the protective magic to vibrate, and the shield kept rippling.

Everyone was stunned and watched this world-destroying super battle!

The pure-blooded old man who knew the goods shouted immediately!

"This, this is a legendary duel! The one in the sky is the application of the high-level patronus in ancient legends. The phoenix must be Dumbledore's, and the bird-snake must be the Dark Lord's!"

Lucius held the wand tightly, and quickly calculated the pros and cons in his mind. He didn't expect Dumbledore to turn against him so directly and come to the door directly.

But what can he do! He can't wash it clean.

Finally, Lucius gritted his teeth and shouted loudly.

"Come on, come with me to help the master, and don't let his duel with Dumbledore be disturbed by small fish and shrimps!"

After that.

Lucius "bravely" took the lead and rushed to the front door of the manor.

The Death Eaters behind him looked at each other, and finally looked at the "bird-snake" patronus in the sky, which was still not at a disadvantage.

A group of people followed Lucius to the front door, passing by the front hall.

Everyone saw Fudge, who had collapsed on the ground, and the timid minister muttered in disbelief.

"The Dark Lord is really back, really back. It's over, everything is over."

When Fudge saw hundreds of Death Eaters passing by, he was even more dumbfounded. Why were there so many Death Eaters? He didn't even receive any news. I'm afraid he's a fake minister!

Lucius and his group quickly came to the protective shield in front of the manor.

Seeing the super battle on the large lawn, there was more than just the "snake" and the phoenix in the sky.
