477. The split that occurred before it even started
Lucius led this pure-blood team down the manor.
In fact, he never thought that he could turn defeat into victory while leading this group of rabble. As long as these people could listen to his command and restore the situation that was obviously extremely bad, everyone would still be able to escape.
hope.
But among the purebloods, some people didn't think so, even though Lucius had confirmed his command authority.
"We can't just rush out blindly." Amycus, the highest-ranking member of the Carrow family among the Death Eaters and a former professor at Hogwarts Castle, said with a sullen face. "Don't forget how we did it.
What is hidden here is protected by the Chidan Loyalty Curse. As long as the secret keeper does not leak the secret, no one can find it! But now the people from Wu Ping Line are here! I think we should figure out the internal affairs first!"
Lucius was extremely irritable, and it was certainly not that he had never thought about this matter.
The reason why the purebloods are all concentrated in the Carlo Manor without fear of being wiped out is because they have absolute confidence that they can hide this base. Even when everyone first moved in, the Carlo family once said boldly that even if there were
One day the British Ministry of Magic was breached, and this manor would be safe and sound.
However, the Ministry of Magic was not breached, nor was Diagon Alley, but the Carrow family manor was attacked without anyone noticing!
Of course, Lucius has never thought about this issue. He is simply unwilling to delve into it, and he doesn't even want to mention it.
At this time, if you still want to engage in foreign affairs, what should you do first?
Everyone, please run out first and see if you can survive!
But after Amycus said these words, there was definitely no way to take them back. In this narrow staircase, dozens of purebloods were holding wands in their hands and looking at each other.
Outside the manor, there were constant explosions and screams, and these sounds were obviously getting closer and closer. Those Aurors were no match for the people on the witch level!
As for who the secret keeper of the Red Loyalty Curse is, only the Carlo family knows. Now that Amycus has raised this question, he did not immediately name the person who leaked the secret, which made everyone present feel confused.
People around him started to become wary.
"So who is the secret keeper who leaked the secret?" Lucius tried his best to suppress his anger, "You point him out now!"
"It's Theodore of the Macmillan family! But he's gone! I've been looking for him from the beginning, but I can't find him anywhere!"
Lucius felt like he was going crazy.
"If everyone is gone, then what's the point of saying this!"
Amycus turned his attention to the two young wizards with nervous faces.
"But his two nephews are still there! Even if he can leak the secret, it means that the MacMillan family is not trustworthy! We must solve this hidden danger first!"
With everyone's eyes on them, the two young people from the MacMillan family defended themselves loudly.
"We don't know about this at all! No one but you knows that uncle is the secret keeper! You can't just implicate us with the blame!"
"But none of us can take risks at this time!" Amycus's sister, Alecto, who was as fat as a pig, had already pointed the wand at them and the people standing around them without knowing it.
The MacMillan brothers seem to be very popular among purebloods. Many people around their own age are constantly defending them, and this defense soon turns into a quarrel, which changes the situation.
It’s getting more and more noisy and chaotic!
"enough!!!"
Lucius's roar suppressed all sounds.
He stared at the two Carlo brothers with red eyes and said with heavy breathing.
"This is not the time to deal with internal problems at all! Either go down now and fight for all of us to live! Or we will all die here!"
However, at this time Amycus no longer expressed his conviction to Lucius, he snorted coldly.
"Of course we will fight, but we will never hand over our backs to a few people who cannot be trusted! Let's go!"
After he finished speaking, he turned around and took the lead to leave. Immediately, a group of people from the Carlo family followed behind him, and several in-laws from their family also followed after hesitation.
Before joining the battlefield, the purebloods were divided into two waves. Lucius knew that he could not wait any longer. If the Aurors were allowed to be eliminated bit by bit, then they wanted to rely on these people.
Just finding a way out is completely nonsense!
"If you want to live, come with me!"
Of course, most of the remaining purebloods have no other choice. They can only follow Lucius's path to the end.
As for the group of people led by the Carlo brothers and sisters.
Alecto moved closer to her brother with a nervous look on his face.
"There are too few of us..."
Amycus just glared at her and spoke in a low voice that only the two of them could hear.
"It's not you. I don't know how you leaked the secret! If I ask you, you can't explain it. We can only kill one person first and make him take the blame for his disappearance!"
Alecto knew she was in the wrong and couldn't say anything more on this issue, but she still continued the question she just asked.
"But why do we have to separate from Lucius and the others?"
"What do you think our chances of surviving together are?"
After Amycus asked this question to his sister, he suddenly amplified his voice so that other purebloods who followed him and separated from Lucius' team could hear what he said.
"As long as a small number of us are separated from them and let them attract most of the attention, then we can all survive!"
Only now did these people finally understand why Amycus had to split with Lucius, and why he didn't intervene when Lucius had determined the leadership right from the beginning.
There are many brainless idiots among pure-blood wizards, but when it comes to how to protect themselves, they almost all use their cleverness to the extreme.
In the current situation, Lucius pulled everyone out of the abyss and united them together for self-protection. Amycus was divided and wanted to form a small group to act alone for self-protection.
Protecting one's own interests is the most important thing. As for the life and death of other pure bloods and Voldemort's grand cause?
None of their business.
Their master didn't care himself, so how could this man care.
So, Amycus led these people in the opposite direction of Lucius and the others, towards the outside of the manor, trying to break out and escape!
