"What's the matter, Yaxley. I said it's nothing serious, don't look for me."
The rising forest green magic flame had just dissipated, and Snape, who was standing by the fireplace, looked at his colleagues with a gloomy face, expressing dissatisfaction with Yaxley for notifying him to come over again.
"I never meant to order you, Severus."
Yaxley gestured to Snape to sit down, motioning for his gloomy, emotionless colleague to sit down: "I just wanted to convey the Dark Lord's message to you."
"What does the Dark Lord need of me?"
Snape looked at his colleague sitting in the armchair in high spirits, and asked with a slight frown.
He knew that the Dark Lord had been abroad lately looking for someone, and it didn't seem to be going well.
"The Dark Lord needs you to find Dumbledore's wand." Yaxley told Snape what Voldemort had asked him to pass on to Snape.
"Dumbledore's wand?"
Snape was very puzzled by Voldemort's order.
What did Voldemort want with Dumbledore's wand?
"Yes, the Dark Lord doesn't seem satisfied with his wand, maybe he wants to get a powerful one," Yaxley said in a low voice, "so he can deal with that damned Mudblood."
"I don't deny that Albert Anderson is indeed worthy of vigilance, but shouldn't the Dark Lord take it so seriously?" Snape was very confused by this.
He knew that the Dark Lord was very afraid of Anderson. That guy's strength was far beyond the normal level of wizards, and he was infinitely approaching the former Dumbledore.
The Dark Lord definitely doesn't want another wizard as powerful as Dumbledore to appear, but it seems very weird to pin his hope of getting rid of Anderson on a powerful wand, because there must be other better ways.
"I've heard the Dark Lord is looking for the Death Rod."
Yaxley deliberately revealed some information to Snape.
"What's that?" Snape looked stunned.
Yaxley spread his hands towards Snape and said, "I'm just following the orders of the Dark Lord."
"So, the Dark Lord thinks that the wand used by Dumbledore is probably the so-called death stick?" Snape felt that the whole thing became quite funny.
"This possibility is not impossible. Don't forget Severus, the old Dumbledore still retains a lot of power."
Even Yaxley had to admit that Dumbledore was incredibly powerful compared to other aging wizards.
Normally, a wizard's magical power will decline significantly after a certain age, but the old guy who has lived for a century is still very powerful before he dies.
"I'll find the wand, but you should know that I didn't stay at Hogwarts after Dumbledore's death. It will take time to find out where the wand is." Snape planned to go back and follow Dumbledore's portrait Let's talk about it.
"You just need to find out where the wand is, and the Dark Lord will come and get it himself." Yaxley raised his glass to Snape and reminded with a smile, "Remember, this is very important."
"What secrets do you seem to know?"
Snape, who was about to turn around and walk towards the fireplace, suddenly stopped and sat back in the armchair again, staring intently at Yaxley's annoying face.
"I can tell you, but everything has a price."
Yaxley squinted at Snape, waiting for a reply.
"what do you want from me?"
Snape naturally heard the implication of the cunning man in front of him, and also guessed why the other party asked him to come here to talk in detail face to face.
"Hogsmeade Village has not been peaceful recently, and I hope it will become the largest black market exchange in Europe."
Yaxley's mouth curled into a pleasant smile, and he knew it was done.
Although Snape's power was far less powerful than his, Yaxley knew very well that only the two of them could join forces to suppress the other little ideas of the Death Eaters and turn Hogsmeade into what he wanted. like that.
"Yes, but the Dark Lord..."
"The Dark Lord doesn't have time for little things like that, and I'm sure he'll be fine with that." Yaxley took a confident sip of his red wine.
Snape hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
He didn't care what Yaxley wanted to do in Hogsmeade, he was more curious about what Voldemort wanted to do.
"Now can you tell me?" Snape asked.
"I asked Ollivander, and he told me that there were legends of various powerful wands in history, such as the Elder Wand, the Death Wand, the Fate Wand..." Yaxley poured Snape a glass of red wine, "If the black With the fabled Death Rod in his hands, the Demon King will be invulnerable. I must admit...that's enough to make everyone feel awed."
"It's just a legend, or it's just that several powerful dark wizards in history used their strength and life to prove the reputation of the wand." Snape was unwilling to believe that there would be such a powerful wand, and the reason was very simple. Albert Anderson is the best case. His strength does not come from his wand, but his own extraordinary power. He believes that after the Dark Lord captured Ollivander, he will figure it out. up to this point.
"Ollivander knows where the Elder Wand is," said Yaxley suddenly.
"What?" Snape froze.
"Ollivander said that the Elder Wand is in Gregorovitch's place." Yaxley put down his glass and said, "So the Dark Lord has been looking for Gregorovich's traces for a while, but the old guy seems to be coming sooner rather than later." I heard the wind and hid."
"So you want to tell me that that ridiculous rumor is true?"
The expression on Snape's face became very strange, "If that wand is really that powerful, why did Gregorovich hide? Besides, if you heard that there is such a wand, you wouldn't be tempted to **** it A wand?"
"I don't know." Yaxley shook his head and said, "Even Ollivander can't judge whether he is real or not. Many people just listen to them as stories, but they can't be sure that those powerful wands never existed. However, at least Dumbledore's wand is suspicious, and don't forget that he has lived for a century, and it is absolutely abnormal that he still retains such powerful magical powers."
"I will try my best to find Dumbledore's wand before the Dark Lord returns to England." Snape got up and walked to the fireplace, preparing to use the Floo network to go directly to the headmaster's office at Hogwarts.
"It's as reliable as ever!" Yaxley raised the glass wine bottle, looked at Snape who disappeared by the fireplace through the red wine liquid, and murmured, "Good luck old friend, your best Expect that Dumbledore's wand is not the death stick."
If Dumbledore really used the legendary death stick, then Snape, who killed him, would probably be in bad luck.
Rumor has it that the wand can only become its true owner if it is captured from the previous owner, and Snape killed Dumbledore, which means that the Dark Lord also needs **** killings to get the wand.
Based on Yaxley's understanding of the Dark Lord, even if Snape was the most powerful assistant, he would be ruthlessly sacrificed.
That meant he would be the Dark Lord's only right-hand man, and it might get busy, but that would be a wonderful thing.
"Oh, you mean Voldemort is looking for a powerful wand?"
Snape, who had just returned to the headmaster's office, immediately told Dumbledore's portrait what he had heard from Yaxley.
However, the long-dead old man didn't seem to care about it.
"You don't seem surprised." Snape was somewhat surprised by the old man's reaction.
"Probably Mr. Anderson put too much pressure on Voldemort." Dumbledore chuckled.
"You can actually laugh." Snape felt that the whole person was not well.
"Don't worry about Severus, this shows to some extent that Mr. Anderson is indeed scary."
Dumbledore witnessed Albert's growth with his own eyes, and he knew the horror of the young wizard better than Voldemort. The only consolation is that Albert is a person with a good personality, and there is no need to worry that he will become a terrible person like Voldemort.
As for Albert's method of dealing with the mysterious man and the Death Eaters, Dumbledore didn't think there was any problem with that.
This is a wizarding war, and wars kill people.
Dumbledore also didn't think Scrimgeour's decision would be seriously influenced by Albert.
After all, Scrimgeour is an adult, he is still the Minister of Magic of the United Kingdom, and he is an Auror himself. In such a crisis-ridden situation, it is normal to make a judgment to directly reduce the number of Death Eaters to weaken Voldemort's power, because it is true. Let them reverse the disadvantage quickly.
"The Dark Lord asked me to find your wand."
Snape looked up at Dumbledore's portrait, and asked his own doubts, "He seems to think that your wand is probably the legendary death stick."
"My wand is indeed stronger than ordinary wands, at least it works better in my hands, but not necessarily with others." Dumbledore did not deny it, and recalled with a frown: "As for where is that wand? Maybe, Minerva will put my wand in the coffin, and you can open my coffin and look for it."
"You know what I'm trying to say!"
Snape didn't care about Dumbledore's suggestion to open his own coffin to find the wand, but said rather annoyed: "Is your wand the death stick? It fell to the Dark Lord, and if the Dark Lord had the death stick, he would be invulnerable, not even Anderson would be his match."
"Voldemort is actually testing you." Dumbledore said suddenly, "otherwise he would never have let you get such important news."
Snape looked at the portrait of the old man behind the desk, the muscles on his face twitched slightly, and he asked, "You think I should give your wand to the Dark Lord."
"Should have said tell Voldemort that my wand was placed in my coffin," Dumbledore corrected.
"You are not afraid..."
"I'm dead," Dumbledore reminded kindly. "And, I don't think it would make sense for Voldemort to have my wand."
"So, that wand is not the so-called death stick?" Snape couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief after confirming again and again.
"At least the wand in my coffin is definitely not the wand Voldemort is looking for." Dumbledore played a language trap, tapped his brain with his index finger and said: "A powerful wizard never relies on a powerful wand, Instead rely on your own brain, isn't Mr. Anderson the best case?"
"Ollivander said that Gregovich once obtained a powerful wand, and now the Dark Lord is looking for Gregovich all over Europe, but he just can't find Gregovich anyway. When Snape said this, he seemed to think of something, suddenly raised his head to look at the portrait in front of him, and looked at Dumbledore with disbelief: "Could it be you who hid him?"
There is really such a possibility, after all, someone has predicted what will happen today a long time ago.
"It's not me, it's Mr. Anderson." Dumbledore admitted directly, "He hid Gregorovitch, after all, no matter who heard that Voldemort might go looking for him, they would think carefully about their own safety question."
"So, the death stick is actually in Anderson's place?" Snape looked at Dumbledore in shock.
Dumbledore laughed silently.
No wonder Albert is Dumbledore's ultimate killer.
Snape couldn't imagine what a horrible existence Albert Anderson would be with a death stick.
The Dark Lord could never be his match.
What was even more frightening was that Mr. Anderson had been hiding his true strength, quietly waiting for the Dark Lord to take the bait, without revealing any news that he possessed the death stick.
When the time came for the Dark Lord to face Albert who was holding the death stick, Snape couldn't help but silently mourn for the Dark Lord for three seconds.
What's even more sad is that the Dark Lord has been in the trap designed by Dumbledore from beginning to end.
It's just that no one can think of it.
Thinking about it, Snape didn't seem so surprised.
After all, in order to plot against the Dark Lord, Dumbledore would even give up his own life. Moreover, there is Albert Anderson who can accurately predict the future, if the two cooperate to calculate the Dark Lord.
It's scary ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Next, what should I do. "
After Snape realized that his worries were completely unnecessary, he didn't bother to think too much about it.
"Complete Voldemort's mission and protect the students at Hogwarts. I don't think they will cause you trouble in a short time." Dumbledore said calmly.
"I'll go and make sure that wand is in your coffin." Snape decided to complete the task first, and Voldemort's doubts and temptations made him a little uneasy.
Looking at Snape's leaving back, Dumbledore sighed softly, and disappeared directly from the portrait frame.
He planned to meet Albert and talk to him about it.
Although Dumbledore did have confidence in the young wizard, there were still some things that he needed to know, because the current progress seemed to Dumbledore to be a bit fast.
