Harry Potter: From Muggle Cousin to Conceptual Wizard

Chapter 436 The Current Situation of Voldemort and the Death Eaters! A Strategy to Turn Crisis into

With Dudley subtly influencing and inspiring her fighting spirit, Voldemort was either causing trouble or preparing to do so.

The past few days have been peaceful, mainly because Voldemort needs to recuperate from her injuries and manage her Death Eater followers, temporarily avoiding the White Wizard's advance.

The Death Eaters and the surrendered wizards fought a great battle, with casualties on both sides.

The real data is—

The Death Eaters dwindled from over 150 to just over 100. More than half of their pure-blood descendants died, and fewer than ten young wizards remained, who were secretly rescued by Dudley.

The number of surrendered wizards decreased from over two hundred to over one hundred and twenty. During the great war, their pure-blood descendants either went to Hogwarts to study or were under eleven years old and were hidden in the manor by the Malfoys, so there were no casualties.

In the minds of Voldemort and the Death Eaters—

The Death Eaters lost about fifty men, which is not a problem.

But in their eyes, the pure-blooded descendants of Death Eaters were all wiped out.

Dudley instructed the rescued young wizards to keep a low profile and also kept the matter quiet, not reporting it.

He also had his clones give Voldemort and the Death Eaters mental suggestions, causing them to instinctively ignore any related news.

Therefore, after the Death Eaters escaped to a safe area, all those with offspring were plunged into grief over the loss of their descendants, and those without offspring also suffered the loss or injury of their fellow Death Eaters, and were equally heartbroken.

As for the number of surrendered wizards killed, in their view, more than half were killed, from two hundred to less than one hundred.

The news of the surrendered wizards secretly protected by Dudley was also unknown to Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

From Voldemort's perspective, this is how it unfolds.

Although she lost the battle against the Malfoys, who were blessed with magical amulets, the Death Eaters were quite formidable in the overall battle, managing to exchange one for two.

She didn't lose this battle; in fact, she won in many ways.

Not to mention the achievement of killing half of the surrendered wizards, she also perfectly used the surrendered wizards to eliminate the Death Eaters' offspring and burdens, causing the remaining hundred or so Death Eaters to develop a deep-seated hatred for the White Wizards' camp, and completely binding them to her chariot.

At the same time, some problems exposed by this battle also served as a wake-up call for Voldemort.

She was reminded to take targeted remedial measures afterward, based on the future development of her power.

That damned Narcissa exposed Voldemort's true identity and, together with Lucius, used a magic rope to reveal her hidden feminine features.

It almost caused her Death Eater followers to break free from the influence of the bewitching black aura and turn against her in the face of battle.

He truly lives up to his reputation as a pure-blooded descendant of the main branch of the Black family, which clashes with her, a descendant of a branch with Muggle blood.

But the crisis had already occurred, and she forcibly suppressed it temporarily during the great war.

Afterwards, she should consider how to mitigate the lingering effects of the crisis, even resolve its dangerous aspects, and fully capitalize on its opportunities.

Voldemort could certainly alter the memories of these Death Eaters one by one, making them forget Voldemort's true origins and the abnormal figure she revealed when her wizard robes were taut.

But this is only a temporary solution. If someone in the know brings it up again in the future, does she have to keep changing her memories?

In that case, how could she feel at ease sending the Death Eaters out to do things for her?

Moreover, Voldemort plans to recruit half-blood and Muggle dark wizards from the British magical community, and will send Death Eaters to recruit dark wizards from all over the world regardless of bloodline.

If the Death Eaters are allowed to adhere to the idea of ​​pure-blood supremacy, it will inevitably create considerable obstacles to Voldemort's future plans to expand her power.

Wizards are already few in number, and black wizards are even fewer.

If we abandon the Muggle and half-blood dark wizards on the basis of dark wizards and instead gather pure-blood dark wizards from various countries, wouldn't that be limiting ourselves?

How else could she gather a powerful enough force to realize her ambitions?

With her reason returning, Voldemort understood things very clearly.

Therefore, she decided not to alter the Death Eaters' memories; instead, she wanted to give her core subordinates a drastic remedy!

Inside an abandoned Muggle factory in the suburbs of London.

After the great battle, Voldemort led the remaining hundred or so Death Eaters and some house-elves to this place to rest and recuperate.

The house-elves used magic to transform the harsh environment inside the abandoned factory, while also stealing various essential supplies from the Muggle world for Voldemort and the Death Eaters to use.

But initially, the Death Eaters clearly had no intention of resting.

They were deeply saddened and unable to calm down for a long time after seeing the corpses of some of the family members and children that the house-elves had brought back.

At this moment, Voldemort showed no sympathy for the Death Eaters. She sat openly on a sofa conjured by her Transfiguration and ordered several house-elves to bring her a dozen or so young and middle-aged Muggles.

Of course, under the subtle mental influence of Dudley's clone, the house-elves only captured the most heinous and roaming evil Muggles.

Voldemort didn't care whether the Muggles she captured were good or evil; she only cared whether their life force was sufficient for her healing needs.

Before long, all the Muggles captured by the house-elves were drained of their life force by Voldemort, turning into green-skinned mummies, and were wiped out by the Cleansing Charm, leaving nothing behind.

Voldemort, having healed her wounds using the life force of the Muggles and returned to her peak condition, stood up with a wicked smile and approached the hundred-odd Death Eaters who were still grieving.

Does it hurt?

"Voldemort asked softly."

The Death Eaters nodded in agreement.

"No, you haven't suffered enough! You've been through excruciating pain!"

Voldemort's expression suddenly changed. She waved her elm wand and unleashed a series of Crucifixion Curses, which struck all the Death Eaters, causing them to fall to the ground in excruciating pain and screaming in agony.

Now, they were experiencing both heartache and physical pain, coupled with the still-unhealed wounds from the curse, making it an incredibly painful experience.

"A bunch of useless trash. Now you feel the pain, but what were you doing before? You disobeyed orders on the battlefield, and when we told you to take action, you didn't, causing us to miss opportunities and resulting in the tragic deaths of your families and descendants."

If I hadn't been distracted by the need to motivate you, with my strength, even if the Malfoys had used those two evil magic charms against me, I wouldn't have been injured!

"It's all your own fault!"

Voldemort said sternly, shifting all the blame for the defeat onto others.

This was not only laying the groundwork for persuading the Death Eaters to change their minds later, but also because Voldemort refused to let her mind fight back. If things didn't go well, it was because of bad luck or her subordinates' incompetence; she herself was absolutely not at fault.

At the very least, she needs to demonstrate this attitude.
