Chapter 101 Church
In the dim light of the basement, Weiss pushed Bellatrix towards Moody and said, "I'll leave it to you."

Moody caught Bellatrix. "I'll make her explain everything clearly."

The words sent a chill down his spine, and Moody tapped his wand lightly, already planning how to get Bellatrix to speak.

"I mean, just give her Veritaserum." Wes didn't expect Moody to have a hobby of torturing people.

Moody's expression turned a little disappointed for a moment, but he quickly adjusted his mood and took out a small bottle of truth serum from his robe.

He then forced Bellatrix to take the potion, and as the drug took effect, Bellatrix revealed the whereabouts of Hufflepuff's cup and Voldemort's hiding place.

"I didn't expect they were in London!" Moody frowned. "They're not that far from here. No wonder we couldn't find them."

Arthur immediately unfolded the map in his hand and tapped the target location with his finger: "Their hiding place is an abandoned church, with almost no residents around."

This means operations can be more covert and reduce unnecessary risks.

Sirius could no longer contain his passion, and clenched his fists as he said, "So what are we waiting for? Let's teach those Death Eaters an unforgettable lesson!"

"Let's set off immediately without further delay!" Dumbledore gave the order decisively.

Every member of the Order of the Phoenix present felt the urgency of time, and they quickly gathered and prepared to head to the abandoned church.

Of course, they would not rashly leave directly from the gate. After all, no one could guarantee whether there were Death Eaters' spies lying in ambush outside the gate.

The safest approach is to use a portkey to transfer to another safe location and then disguise yourself appropriately.

When they reappeared, they had arrived in a quiet suburb.

Not far away, an ancient church stood quietly, and the cross on the roof looked particularly lonely in the sunset.

A white-haired old lady was sitting on the bench in front of the church. In order not to attract the attention of ordinary people around, Wes came to the bench alone. The old lady actually started chatting with Wes in a familiar manner.

"Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer believers in the Lord, and no one comes to worship. Slowly, it becomes deserted." The old lady is an old resident here and knows everything about the surrounding area well.

"Later, a wealthy man bought the church and planned to convert it into a residence."

After saying this, the old lady sighed. As a devout believer, in her opinion, the church is God's residence on earth, but now it seems that everything has changed.

"Alas, it's all about money! Money is the key to success!"

After getting the information he wanted, Weiss politely said goodbye. Dumbledore and other members of the Order of the Phoenix were not good at dealing with ordinary people. After he brought the news back, the members of the Order of the Phoenix adjusted their action plan based on the information.

"They don't seem to realize that something's happened to Bella. Maybe we can wait until they're all here tonight before we take action."

Moody cleverly disguised himself as an old man reading a book, but he held the book upside down, and this detail actually added a bit of realism.

Finally, they decided to follow Moody's advice and surround the church first to ensure that the enemy could not escape. After a brief discussion, everyone decided to wait until all the enemies had gathered before taking action.

A raid during the day would be too conspicuous and would easily attract unnecessary attention.

As the sky darkened, the area around the abandoned church became quiet, with only the occasional sound of wind and the barking of dogs in the distance breaking the tranquility.

The Order of the Phoenix members each took up their respective vantage points, each holding their breath and gripping their wands tightly. Several Death Eaters returned, including Fenrir Greyback, the werewolf leader, a man known for his cruelty and bloodlust.

"He's actually started recruiting aliens. Hasn't Voldemort always looked down on werewolves, vampires and other humanoid creatures?" Moody said in a low voice.

"It only means that he has no more manpower now."

Voldemort's action undoubtedly exposed his predicament, which greatly boosted the morale of the members of the Order of the Phoenix.

Night fell completely and all around was silent.

The four wizards, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Nymphadora Tonks and Hestia Jones, stood at the four corners of the church, holding their wands high.

They chanted the spell in unison, and an invisible curtain unfolded around the church.

This curtain is not used for defense, but a decoy that can block out the sounds and everything happening inside, making it impossible for the outside world to detect any movement.

Although it does not have strong defensive power, it has excellent concealment and hardly produces any magical fluctuations, thus avoiding being discovered by the enemy.

As the curtain formed, the interior of the church was completely isolated from the outside world.

Weiss wore an invisibility cloak to avoid the various traps set at the church door, eliminated the Death Eaters guarding the door and successfully entered the church.

The Invisibility Cloak was borrowed by Sirius from Harry. As one of the "Three Deathly Hallows", it makes people completely invisible to others.

Wes had volunteered to explore the church, casting a silencing spell to muffle the sounds he made, and a special spell to eliminate his body odor.

In this way, he was like a ghost, moving silently inside the church without leaving any trace.

According to intelligence, the church has three floors in total.

Barty Jr. and Nagini were on the top floor, with Barty Jr. guarding the big snake closely.

The second floor is the living area for the core members of the Death Eaters, and the first floor is where some guards are stationed.

Weiss didn't want to alert the enemy. If Barty Jr. noticed something was wrong and escaped with Nagini, all his efforts would be in vain. Therefore, he decided to deal with the guards on the first floor first. These Death Eaters were basically cannon fodder. Before they could react, Weiss had already knocked them down one by one with a silent Stunning Spell.

In order to avoid attracting the attention of the Death Eaters upstairs, Weiss put the unconscious Death Eaters into a suitcase. After dealing with the enemies on the first floor, Weiss stepped lightly up the stairs and headed for the second floor.

The atmosphere on the second floor is obviously different, the space is smaller, and the elite members of the Death Eaters live here. They are more vigilant and have stronger combat capabilities.

Weiss stood among these Death Eaters. The invisibility cloak made him as invisible as air, and no one noticed his presence.

Fenrir Greyback seemed to sense something was wrong and sniffed the air from time to time, his movements attracting the attention of other Death Eaters.

"Do you smell anything with your dog nose, Fenrir?"

Avery started to laugh. He had always been prejudiced against werewolves, believing that they were only fit to be slaves, but now he had to be on equal terms with them, which made Avery very dissatisfied.
