"The family that took action was the Frank family, right?"

Hearing what his mentor said, Ian was shocked, then nodded slowly, with a murderous intent in his heart.

He will never forget the hatred that killed his parents and destroyed his family.

Then, he heard his mentor say something in a calm tone that excited his heart.

"In three days, I will take you to the Frank family to avenge our blood feud!"

Chapter 319 Voldemort's Ambition, President of the Pure-Blood Presbyterian Church (two in one)

Pureblood Presbyterian Church.

In a spacious conference room, there is a large brown wooden round table in the middle, which is emitting a certain magical fluctuation and a faint fragrance.

When others take a sniff, they will find that their mind is calm and focused.

On the round table, there were a large number of seat cards, made of pure glass with bright red names engraved on them.

Names of pure-blood families such as Borders, Carlo, Nott, Roll, Frank, etc.

Sitting in the main seat, an old man closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing. Despite this, one could still vaguely sense the majestic aura emanating from his body.

The seat nameplate in front of him was engraved with Travers' bright red handwriting.

It seems to indicate that this is an old wizard from the Travers family.

Just as the old man closed his eyes, a dark shadow occasionally flashed in front of the spacious meeting space.

Someone used Apparition to arrive at the conference table.

Every time a wizard arrived, he would look at Vlad Travers who was sitting at the front, and a hint of respect and...fear would flash in his eyes.

Then, without any communication, he sat in his seat and waited silently.

As time passed, even though there were wizards sitting at the table, the entire conference room remained silent.

However, the entire space was occasionally filled with faint fluctuations of magical power, as well as subtle changes in their expressions.

It seems to indicate that everyone privately communicates through magic.

cough!

As if sensing that everyone who should be in the meeting room had arrived, Vlad Travers, the president of the Presbyterian Church, who was sitting at the front, coughed lightly.

Suddenly everyone turned their eyes to the old man.

"Everyone, a new big change is coming." Vlad Travers said indifferently: "Grindelwald left Nurmengard, Voldemort emerged in the wizarding world, and there is also the new Lockhart."

"Today, the focus of discussion is where our Elders Council is headed."

"What do you think? Feel free to speak up."

After hearing what Vlad said, an old wizard from the Frank family stood up and said, "President Vlad, I personally think that it is unrealistic to remain a recluse."

"Someone has begun to disrupt the pure-blood order created by our Elders Council, trying to dilute the influence of the pure-blood families through Squibs."

"And the opponent's strength is not weak. Herman and Andre have already fallen, and now they are reduced to squibs, and the remaining lifespan is not much left."

After hearing what Justo Frank said, many wizards looked unhappy.

Hermann, Andre and the others had met before and had some relationship with each other to some extent. But now they are all useless. It is inevitable that they will feel sad for each other.

"Justo, Vlad, are you sure this Lockhart can fight Grindelwald?"

"Basically, it's certain." Eusto Frank nodded and said in affirmation: "Herman saw it with his own eyes, and I also checked the memory to make sure there is no problem."

"And this Lockhart, like Grindelwald and Voldemort, is suspected to have awakened his wizard talent, which may be related to the Transfiguration Spell."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

The combat power of a wizard who has awakened his wizard talent and a wizard who has not awakened his wizard talent is very different.

Among their Council of Elders, only Vlad Travers had awakened his wizard talent.

This is why the other person symbolizes the leader's main position.

"Can we win over Professor Lockhart? Or will he fight to the death with us?" said the wizard of the Prewett family.

After hearing this, Justo Frank was silent for a moment, then said cautiously, "At present, the other party has not shown a complete attitude of fighting to the death."

"But according to the information we received, this Professor Lockhart wants to establish a wizard school that specializes in teaching meditation."

"What the other party wants to do will undoubtedly disrupt the pure-blood order we have built."

Just as Justo finished speaking, the wizard next to him asked in surprise.

"Justo, are you sure? Is Dumbledore willing? In the entire British wizarding world, only Hogwarts has the right to recruit wizard students."

"Yes, Justo, if that's the case, can we get Dumbledore to target Lockhart?"

In response to everyone's questions, Justo raised his hand to suppress them and said, "Everyone, I have tried to test Dumbledore's side."

"His attitude was very strange. He neither confirmed nor denied it."

"It seems...he wants to see what our Elders will do next."

"What's Voldemort's attitude? He doesn't like the Squib." The wizard beside him asked in a deep voice.

"Voldemort hasn't expressed his attitude yet, and seems to be watching what our Elder Council will do next." Justo replied in a deep voice: "It's obvious that they are all waiting for our Elder Council's attitude."

"If we are weak, I am afraid..."

Without Justo explaining anything, everyone already knew what might happen.

Pick out the soft persimmons and pinch them.

If the Elders Council doesn't take any action, then everyone will come and give it a try.

"I have received news that Lockhart is preparing to challenge us to a pure-blood duel. The first challenger will be our Frank family."

"Everyone, now it depends on what our elders will do."

After Justo Frank finished speaking, the entire conference room fell silent.

As mentioned before, Lockhart's strength is comparable to Grindelwald's.

They had no confidence in being able to compete with Grindelwald, and naturally they did not dare to say that they could defeat Lockhart.

Don't look at how alarmist Justo's previous words were, talking about the dangers to the pure-blood order. Everyone just looks at the attitude of the Elders Council and so on.

In fact, no one cares too much about it. Everyone can brag.

What they were curious about was what Dumbledore's attitude would be towards building a wizarding school?

To put it bluntly, the Elder Council is just a scattered alliance based on pure-blood status and the pursuit of immortality.

When it is beneficial, everyone is a member of the Presbyterian Church.

When there is no benefit, just live your own life.

If they win this pure-blood duel, they will naturally gain benefits.

After losing, as long as they change direction in time, the impact on them is actually not that big. The only one affected is the Frank family.

It is common for pure-blood nobles to change their attitude according to the situation.

Even if order is really in chaos, they can eventually rise up with their superior wizard bloodline, but they just need to hide at the beginning.

This is the confidence of being a pureblood.

Even during the period when Voldemort was rampant, their Elder Council was not affected much.

They didn't believe that anything could go wrong with just Lockhart.

Especially now that Grindelwald, Voldemort, and Dumbledore are all around.

Lockhart really dares to attack the Presbyterian Church. Isn't he afraid that the Presbyterian Church will side with others?

Seeing everyone's attitude, Justo sighed softly and knew what everyone was thinking.

After all, everyone knows what kind of people they are.

If this pure-blood duel did not involve the Frank family, he would not want to get involved in it.

However, it was he who persuaded Vlad Travers to convene this meeting.

What I said before is just to give a suitable reason.

It would depend on what conditions their family could offer and how much help they could get.

Otherwise, everyone will just listen and not take action.

Fortunately, this time it's not just the Frank family that's targeted. Several other families also have to work together to share the responsibility, especially Lucius Malfoy. Don't even think about escaping this time.

Otherwise, don’t blame the Frank family for turning against you.

As his thoughts turned, Justo Frank said in a deep voice: "Everyone, we all know the rules."

"As long as we can survive this disaster, our Frank family will owe you a favor. In addition, we are willing to lend you five ancient magic books, three Hogsmeade shops, and a small magical creature breeding farm..."

When they heard the conditions offered by Justo, everyone's eyes lit up.

That's right. Who would do something that has no benefit?

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, so they are not playing funny games.

"If this fails, our Frank family will also owe you a favor."

"Here I share an extremely valuable piece of information."

At this point, Justo paused, as if asking everyone to focus.

"Based on the life extension technology we discovered Professor Lockhart possesses."

"It's a bit like the Philosopher's Stone, called the Light of Life. It can extend the life of a wizard and has a nourishing effect on the soul."

At this point, Justo observed everyone's expressions and saw that everyone's breathing was slightly rapid, especially Vlad Travers, who was sitting in the right seat, had opened his eyes.

Then he smiled and spoke word by word.

"Through this pure-blood duel, we have the opportunity to defeat Lockhart legitimately and obtain the Light of Life refining technology in his hands."

..........

Night, in the basement of Malfoy Manor.

Trample! Trample! Trample!

Lucius was wearing a black wizard robe and walked steadily but subconsciously lightly as he headed deeper into the basement.

Deep in the basement, a black notebook lay on a table.

Seeing this, Lucius walked forward, bent over, and looked at the black notebook in front of him with awe.

call!

As if sensing Lucius's arrival, a soul phantom emerged from the black notebook.

Although it was an illusion, one could still see his handsome appearance, as well as his dark, elegant temperament.

It was Tom Riddle, or a younger version of Voldemort.

"Master, there is some movement from the Elders Council."

"This time, the president of the Presbyterian Church, Vlad Travers, will personally take part in the pure-blood duel."

As he spoke, he lowered his head, not daring to look Voldemort in the eyes.

He did not forget that his master, who was only in the form of a soul, cursed to death so many wizards in the Ministry of Magic.

It's just horrifying.

He is indeed the most powerful dark wizard in history.

After hearing this, Tom raised his lips slightly, then waved his hand gracefully and said, "Okay, Lucius, help me keep an eye on the duel between the two."

"Who wins and who loses, and what magic Lockhart used, show me everything carefully, and report back to me when you come back."

"Understood, Master. I will make sure to analyze Lockhart's strength clearly."

Hearing this, Tom waved his hand gently, signaling Lucius to step back.

Just as Lucius was leaving, Tom suddenly reminded him, "Prepare the resurrection materials as soon as possible."

"Peter Pettigrew's side is almost ready, only your side is left."
