However, Barty Jr. did not notice Snape. He knelt down in front of Snape and took the wand that Harry had dropped.
Barty stood up, pointed his wand at the sky, and uttered the Death Eater's signature spell.
"The bones reappear!"
A flash of green light appeared, and an enormous skull appeared in the sky. It was composed of countless emerald green, star-like substances, and a large python emerged from the skull's mouth, resembling the skull's tongue.
After it appeared, it rose higher and higher, like a cloud of smoke emitting a green glow, or like a constellation shining in the night sky.
This is the Dark Mark of the Death Eaters, and Snape also had it.
Whenever Voldemort becomes more powerful, the Dark Mark on the Death Eaters' hands emits a burning pain, becomes clearer, and changes color from dark green to red.
Voldemort also used this Dark Mark to summon Death Eaters. Whenever Voldemort pressed the mark, the other Death Eaters would sense it and then Apparate to Voldemort's side to obey his commands.
Of course, Death Eaters can also use this mark to summon Voldemort to their side, but the power lies with Voldemort; whether they can summon Voldemort depends entirely on his will.
Barty the Younger summoned the Dark Mark not only to find his master, but also to warn the Death Eaters who had betrayed Voldemort.
Yes, in Barty's view, the Death Eaters' scattering after Voldemort's disappearance was a betrayal.
He was furious that these traitors, who clearly possessed freedom, did not seek out their master but instead created chaos and indulged in pleasure here.
Although he was replaced in Azkaban by his mother, he was imprisoned at home by his damned father, Crouch the Elder, who controlled him with the Imperius Curse and ordered their house-elf, Sparky, to watch over him.
This prevented him from searching for Voldemort's trail and serving his master.
Later, Flash felt sorry for its little master. Knowing that Barty had always loved Quidditch, it asked old Crouch for permission to take Barty out for some fresh air.
Crouch gave permission, so Barty Jr. was present at this Quidditch World Cup.
And taking advantage of the chaos in the camp, he successfully broke free of the Soul Curse that his father had placed on him.
After breaking free of control, the first thing Little Barty thought of was contacting his owner.
So he sent the Dark Mark into the sky.
The Death Eaters who were causing chaos also saw the mark. They were afraid that Voldemort had really returned and that he would hold them accountable for their inaction over the years.
So they scattered once again, leaving the place.
After Barty Jr. released the Dark Mark, Voldemort sensed that someone under his command was summoning him, but he and Peter Pettigrew were on their way and had no time to pay attention to it.
Here, we need to mention someone named Bertha Karenina.
She once accidentally discovered Little Barty?
Later, she went on vacation to Albania, where she was brought before Voldemort by Peter Pettigrew.
Voldemort used powerful magic to break the Oblivion Curse cast by old Crouch, thus learning the whereabouts of his loyal servant Barty Young.
Chapter 190 An Ominous Land, The Ministry of Magic Arrives Late
From Bertha? (The rest of the text appears to be a fragmented collection of characters and symbols, possibly related to a corrupted or incomplete document.)
At this moment, he was leading Peter Pettigrew towards England.
It has to be said that this was a two-way race between Barty and Voldemort.
As for that unfortunate Bertha...
So, don't go near Albania, that ominous place, or you'll suffer misfortune!
Little Barty? (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated to the initial question.)
As the entire wizarding camp was burned to near ashes, Fudge finally arrived at the scene with the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic.
Upon arriving at the scene, they immediately began knocking out several people who were unconscious.
Fortunately, at this time, the entire camp was safe except for Little Bati.
An Auror stepped forward to check on Barty's condition, and as he turned Barty over, he saw the Dark Mark on Barty's arm.
"Minister Fudge, we've captured a Death Eater," the Auror reported to Fudge.
After confirming that it was safe, Fudge came closer.
Seeing Little Batty? (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated to the initial statement.)
The Crouch family has close ties with the Ministry of Magic. Before Barty Jr. revealed his identity as a Death Eater, Crouch Sr. was already the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement and a potential candidate to become Minister of Magic.
As a result, after Barty Jr.'s identity as Death Eater 30 was exposed, Crouch's reputation plummeted, and he was reassigned to the International Magical Exchange and Cooperation Department as its director.
Although Crouch was the head of both divisions, the lucrative opportunities differed between them.
Clearly, the Department of Magical Law Enforcement is more lucrative, while the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, to be honest, hasn't seen much exchange between the Ministries of Magic of different countries since the implementation of the International Secrecy Act.
Barty Jr.?
Although Fudge and Crouch were rivals for Minister of Magic, they did not harbor any animosity towards each other.
After all, everyone works at the Ministry of Magic, and they see each other every day, so they won't make things too awkward.
Little Barty, who has been dead for many years, suddenly appears here, and Fudge doesn't know what to do with him for a moment.
Just as Fudge was pondering how to resolve the situation, Harry had already woken up without him noticing.
However, he was still somewhat dazed at this moment.
Upon seeing an Auror holding his wand, Harry instinctively asked, "Sir, could you please give me back my wand?"
His words directly revealed his and Snape's positions.
(To save space with the invisibility cloak, Lily has hidden herself again.)
"Who's there!" Fudge exclaimed.
The Aurors all raised their wands and pointed them toward the source of the sound.
Snape reluctantly put down the invisibility cloak, thinking to himself, "This is probably what Zicomo meant by a terrible teammate."
“Snape, and Harry. What are you doing here?” Fudge asked.
“Obviously, we’re here to watch the Quidditch World Cup too,” Snape said.
He wasn't in a good mood. As a "double agent," he couldn't get too involved in matters concerning the Death Eaters.
Snape originally planned to wait until Fudge and the other Aurors left before taking Harry away from there.
Harry's sudden outburst has now forced him to confront the Ministry of Magic.
Fudge knew that Snape had once been a Death Eater, so he was skeptical of Snape's words.
Snape understood Fudge's thoughts, which is why he didn't want to get involved with the Ministry of Magic in this matter.
Fudge took Harry's wand from the Auror and asked Harry, "Harry, you said this is your wand. Can you tell me why it's in this Death Eater's hands?"
Compared to Snape, who had a criminal record, Fudge was more willing to believe Harry. After all, Harry was less experienced, and Fudge was better able to maintain control.
"Death Eaters?" Harry was completely unfamiliar with this term.
"Yes, Death Eaters. They're that man's men."
"Voldemort's henchmen?"
"Oh, good to know. No need to say the person's name."
"I do not know."
"Do you know where the rest of the Death Eaters went?"
"I don't know either. Perhaps you could ask Professor Snape."
Although Harry didn't know why Snape was with him, after learning about Snape's past relationship with his mother, he knew that Snape would never harm him.
Fudge was somewhat helpless. He had thought he could get some information from Harry, but Harry knew nothing about it.
“Alright, Professor Snape. Could you please give a brief account of what happened?” Fudge asked, looking at Snape.
"The Death Eaters attacked the camp, and Potter was trampled unconscious by the panicked crowd when he left. That's when his wand fell to the ground and was picked up by that man."
At this point, Snape pointed to Barty Jr.
Fudge's lips twitched. He had asked Snape to give a brief summary, but Snape had managed to condense it into just two sentences.
"So what were you doing then? Why didn't you stop those Death Eaters?" Fudge continued.
“There were too many of them for me to handle. Besides, as a teacher, my primary responsibility is to protect the students.”
Snape answered Fudge's question with just two sentences, as always.
Before Fudge could ask any more questions, he spoke first: "Any other questions? If not, I'll take my student away first. He was just frightened and needs to be calmed down."
Judging from Snape's attitude, Fudge knew that no matter how much he asked, he wouldn't get any useful information.
“One last question, which direction did those Death Eaters leave from?” Fudge asked.
"There."
Snape pointed in a direction.
In reality, the Death Eaters scattered and left; Snape simply pointed in the direction with the most people.
However, it's estimated that Fudge and his group won't be able to catch up with the Death Eaters, since the Death Eaters used Apparition when they left.
Fudge knew this too; he just wanted an excuse to leave.
