Chapter 337 Who is the fucking god of black magic?
Blocking vision and hearing is equivalent to separating everyone, so that they can compare each other and prevent collusion; this is a necessary means of interrogation. Moreover, Lin You's interrogation does not emphasize civilized law enforcement, and all necessary means are used.
Considering the wizarding society's legal system, which is almost at the stage of the Renaissance or even the Middle Ages, most of Lin You's torture methods can actually be called "civilized."
Soon, Death Eaters confessed one after another, but unfortunately no one could provide accurate and effective information. After Voldemort gave them the order to attack Muggles, he took Barty Crouch Jr. away; no one knew where they went.
"The mistresses are thrown here as cannon fodder, while Barty Crouch Jr. has become the confidant." Lin You glanced at Bellatrix. This woman was already middle-aged and had been imprisoned in Azkaban for more than ten years. She looked older and more haggard than her peers.
Whether in the original novel or the adapted movie, this woman's appearance is not good; especially in the movie, she looks dirty from head to toe. It is not easy for Voldemort to eat her.
But despite her ugliness, Mrs. Lestrange was the most determined of all the Death Eaters and the most loyal to Voldemort. When everyone else couldn't stand the torture and confessed, this woman said nothing but cursed over and over again, and even shouted "When the master comes back, it will be your turn to die." However, these curses were almost drowned out by the screams and confessions of more than a dozen people.
Seeing that he could not get any useful information from these cannon fodders, Lin You was too lazy to conduct further investigations and released two pet snakes to roam around the villa, searching for secret rooms and secret passages to ensure that no one escaped. At the same time, he released the "Patronus Spell" to detect any possible traces of black magic.
After a lot of effort, Lin You finally confirmed that Voldemort and Barty Jr. were indeed not in the manor. He then retracted his "magical power" and returned to the porch of the villa.
The Death Eaters were restrained in their movements and isolated from their sight and hearing, and had no idea that Lin You had left for a walk and returned; because they were being tortured continuously, they thought that Lin You was not satisfied with not finding out the whereabouts of Voldemort, so he confessed all kinds of secrets to make up for it, and he almost confessed the fact that he had wet the bed as a child.
A dozen people gathered together and muttered to a non-existent person, just like patients in a mental hospital taking a collective walk.
It can only be said that the most stubborn one is Bellatrix. She still hasn't confessed at this moment, and she keeps uttering vicious curses: "You will beg for mercy and wail in front of my master... My master is favored by the god of black magic, he will bring you endless darkness and infinite pain..."
A bunch of losers were barking, but the phrase "God of Black Magic" caught Lin You's attention.
Lin You's thoughts turned, and all the Death Eaters heard the voice of Earl Goff at the same time: "Did Voldemort mention the God of Dark Magic? What did he say?"
One question brought about a variety of expressions on everyone's faces. Some hesitated, some were confused, and some were disdainful. Then they all spoke up and gave roughly the same answer.
After Voldemort rescued the Death Eaters, he held a meeting; in Muggle terms, it could be called a long-term goal planning meeting, or in layman's terms, it was just a pie in the sky.
During this period, Voldemort vaguely revealed a major secret: he discovered the inheritance of "despicable Herbo" and knew the reason why this dark wizard was so powerful two thousand years ago. It is said that the reason why Herbo achieved great success in the field of dark magic was because he was favored by the god of dark magic.
Now, Voldemort has obtained clues to find the god of dark magic.
"When I find the treasure left by Herpo, I will be able to understand the true meaning of all dark magic from its source; then, no one in the world will be my opponent, not even Dumbledore - these are the Dark Lord's original words." The one who confessed most straightforwardly was Lucius Malfoy; this man held out the longest before confessing, and was almost the last one to surrender except Bellatrix, but after he opened his mouth, his confession was the most extensive and detailed.
The others spoke in bits and pieces, and what they said was roughly the same as Mr. Malfoy's; however, different people had different opinions on the words of the "God of Dark Magic".
A few people thought that Voldemort was crazy for placing his hope in an illusory god; most people believed that this was just a trick used by Voldemort to confuse people with news that was difficult to distinguish between true and false; of course, there were also people who believed in Voldemort and devoutly believed every word he said like a believer.
There is actually only one person in the last category, and that is Bellatrix Lestrange. It is precisely because of this woman's unquestionable belief in Voldemort that she accidentally revealed the title of "God of Dark Magic".
"I want a name, the name of the 'God of Black Magic'." Lin You asked sternly.
"do not know."
"The Dark Lord didn't tell us."
"Never heard of it."
The answer he received put Lin You in a dead end again; since he couldn't even get the name, asking about the specific whereabouts would naturally yield no results.
After listening to the Death Eater's confession, Lin You's face turned black.
The Death Eaters basically didn't know or believe in the existence of God, but how could Lin You not know? Voldemort saw that he had fallen into the trap set by Patrick Morgan step by step and became a pawn used by God.
Lin You even had a vague guess about the identity of the "God of Black Magic". How could he not know that the source of the black magic in the big world was rewritten by the author with a quill pen?
Voldemort himself admitted that he could "see the true meaning of dark magic from the source." If this is not bragging, it only means that more and more forces are involved in this "unknown" incident.
So many that it is beyond the writer's control.
Lin You was circling in front of the villa door, turning a deaf ear to the screams of the Death Eaters who were being tortured, and busying himself with deducing the current situation.
The fact that Voldemort was tricked into going to Godric's Hollow by a fake "Golden Flask" shows two things: first, he valued the "Golden Flask" so much that he was willing to go and find out for himself even at the risk of exposing his identity; second, at least before the Battle of Godric's Hollow, he did not obtain accurate information about the "Golden Flask", so he was deceived.
Until tonight, he arranged for the Death Eaters to attack Muggles in a high-profile manner to divert attention; if this move was because he got the exact clue he needed, it should have happened in the past two days.
Coincidentally, Lin You also found out the approximate whereabouts of the ancient Greek artifacts at almost the same time.
To say that this "coincidence" was not artificially arranged would be to underestimate the means of "Sir Morgan".
"Damn, something might happen to Dumbledore!"
It’s coming, it’s late, it’s late.
