The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 739 Secret Base
After returning from the bank, Ryan and his men put all their efforts into the attack plan on London. After all, now that Voldemort could not be found, those guys in London were almost all the enemies they could find.

Of course, Ryan also knew that Voldemort was the core of the Death Eaters. If Voldemort was not killed, those damned Death Eaters would emerge from all over the place in waves. So in the next few days, Ryan led his followers into London many times to try to find Voldemort's location.

Ryan even rushed into Diagon Alley with several elite team members after he was well prepared, and then swaggered and attacked four Death Eaters outside Gringotts, killing three of them and injuring one when the other party raised their hands to cast the Killing Curse. But even though Ryan and his team dragged the subdued Death Eater all the way from Gringotts to the Leaky Cauldron, no Death Eater jumped out to stop them.

Along the way, Ryan also saw with his own eyes the Death Eater patrol that was originally arranged in Diagon Alley. However, after seeing Ryan and his team dragging a Death Eater, the group of people ran into Knockturn Alley without looking back, and did not even look at the captured companion.

After returning to Hogsmeade with the captives, Ryan and his team interrogated the captured Death Eater. Unfortunately, this Death Eater was only a peripheral staff and had no idea where Voldemort had gone. Ryan and his team had no choice but to send this Death Eater to the Ministry of Magic.

However, based on the prisoner's confession and everything seen in Diagon Alley today, it can be proved that Voldemort has not appeared in public for a long time, and may even have left London. From a certain perspective, this will be of great benefit to the subsequent London attack.

But Ryan still remained extremely vigilant, because he knew that Voldemort and his hidden powers were like hidden poisonous snakes, ready to deliver a fatal blow to everyone at any time.

In addition to Ryan, both Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic are also looking for Voldemort's traces, but they also find nothing. So where is Voldemort hiding now?

Ryan and his friends were right about Voldemort's guess, that is, he and his core Death Eaters are not in London now. In a sparsely populated coastal hilly area in northern Scotland, under those hills covered with lush grass that are looming in the mist, there are secrets that almost no one knows.

"On April 4, Dumbledore announced that he would launch a general attack on London in a very short time. This is a very good thing, which means that the battle against dark wizards in Britain has entered the final stage. The time for the final victory over the mysterious man and all his lackeys has come."

"Under such circumstances, all those who are resisting the dark forces should join this great counterattack and closely and effectively cooperate with the main force of the Ministry of Magic. Carry out a thorough cleanup of the areas that have been recovered and rebuild their effective management institutions. And strive to restore most of the production before the end of the war -"

"Oh, that's all boasting. The great Dark Lord will surely defeat these dirty guys. You will never know how great the Dark Lord is." A witch with a sallow face crumpled up the British Magic News and threw it into the fireplace. Then she opened the door and walked out of the room amid the crackling sound of burning firewood.

Outside the room was a dark corridor, with only a few candles suspended in the air providing a pitiful amount of light for the entire corridor. There were doors lined up on both sides of the corridor, but there was almost no movement. The whole gloomy feeling did not feel like a place where people lived, but rather like a tomb passage in a tomb.

The witch, who seemed a little overexcited, walked quietly in the corridor after she went out. Even though she was wearing boots with iron soles, she did not make any sound in the stone corridor, as if she was a ghost floating there.

She would stop at the door of each room and listen quietly to the movement inside. When she came to a door, her eyes suddenly widened, and then she pulled out her wand and blasted the wooden door open.

After the explosion, the two people sitting at the table in the room stood up immediately, their faces filled with horror. On the table between them was a crude magic radio, from which came intermittent voices. "--Death Eaters, you have reached the end of your rope. The defenses in London have completely collapsed, and even our team can easily enter Diagon Alley to annihilate the Death Eaters and then come out, and no one else dares to stop us. But your master has abandoned you, and he has no countermeasures even for our large-scale operations in London, like a rat hiding in the sewer--"

With a bang, before Lee Jordan finished speaking, the radio was blown to pieces by a magic. Then the witch pointed her wand at the two trembling young men angrily: "How dare you listen to this - how dare you! Cruciatus, Cruciatus."

The two young men immediately fell to the ground and curled up, screaming miserably. However, the witch looked at them without any mercy in her eyes. Instead, she increased her magic output. "Crabbe, Flint, the Dark Lord has already given you a great favor by allowing you to come here. How dare you listen to this?"

"We don't dare anymore. Please spare us, Master Bella." The two young wizards wailed, but Bella showed no sign of letting up. She didn't give up torturing them until the two men's wailing became inaudible.

"Remember, it is an honor for you to be brought here by the Dark Lord. If I find you doing inappropriate things again, it won't be solved by a simple Cruciatus Curse." Bellatrix warned in a sharp voice.

"Yes, sir." Vincent Crabbe and Marcus Flint fell to the ground and answered weakly. But at this time, Bellatrix walked straight out of the room without looking at the two people who were lying in the room and twitching slightly.

Although Bella looked down on these young wizards, she would never say anything, because young wizards like Vincent Crabbe and Marcus Flint were brought in at Voldemort's suggestion.

On the one hand, this was because of insufficient manpower. After Ryan's large-scale attack in the early stage, Voldemort was surprised to find that the manpower and wealth under his control had dropped to an extremely dangerous level. Therefore, he needed to find all the resources he could to complete his current plan.

On the other hand, after a series of actions and battles, most of the people who are now on Voldemort's side have turned away from him. The only reason they are still under his command is because they are afraid of Voldemort's power and cruel methods.

Voldemort knew this very well, so in order to keep the current plan secret, he kept all those he thought were unreliable in London. Although young wizards like Vincent Crabbe and Marcus Flint were not strong enough, they were considered reliable because their fathers were both core Death Eaters and died in battle.

As Voldemort's most loyal subordinate, Bella looked down on these cowardly and incompetent little wizards in his eyes, but she would never raise any objection to this approach.

So after punishing the two guys who she thought had behaved inappropriately, Bella walked into the corridor, took a deep breath, adjusted her expression, then walked to the end of the corridor and pushed open a door.

Suddenly, a chill rushed into the corridor, causing Bella, who had just opened the door, to shiver. However, she quickly recovered and walked down a dark downward passage in front of her.
