Initially, Yaxley planned to turn Hogsmeade into the most popular black market in Europe, not only to make money, but also to help the Dark Lord absorb lawless people from Europe and expand themselves.
of power, and at the same time in order to consolidate his own power.
However, things are always not as expected.
Hogsmeade has indeed become a famous black market in Europe, and has gathered many ruthless guys, but Yaxley has ignored one important thing. Most dark wizards have joined the Dark Lord's camp, and more are actually
In order to make better money.
Voldemort's reputation may temporarily overwhelm these vicious guys, but when it comes to his own use, even Voldemort can't do it.
Conflict was inevitable from that moment on.
It broke out so quickly because someone secretly incited and intensified the conflict between the two parties.
Of course, the Death Eaters are not as bad as expected, but if all the dead are actors, it will naturally give the dark wizards from abroad the illusion that the Death Eaters are all trash.
Since they are trash, they naturally have no right to oppress them, let alone control them.
The black market that advocates free trade has successfully ushered in freedom. It can be said that no one is willing to share the money in their pockets with others.
People who have enjoyed the sweet fruit of free trade are naturally not willing to give up the black market of Hogsmeade easily, and naturally they are not willing to give up a place where they can make a lot of money.
It seems ironic to say that since Hogsmeade came under the control of the Death Eaters, the security situation has suddenly improved, and it has become the most popular place in Europe.
It is not at all like the chaos caused by the loss of Death Eaters as Yaxley thought. On the contrary, Hogsmeade today is less like a black market and more like a trading area like Diagon Alley.

If it weren't for the fact that the items on display in the shops and vendors are all prohibited items, I'm afraid no one would really regard this place as a black market.
After all, dark wizards are not madmen. They are educated people. They are involved in the black market more to make money. Hogsmeade is undoubtedly such a good place. It is difficult for them to find a place like Hogsmeade elsewhere in Europe.
In a comfortable place like Germany, the dark wizards who come here to trade will even spontaneously maintain the environment here, and some unwritten rules gradually form.
Such a harmonious scene is undoubtedly a great irony to the Death Eaters, with expressions of incompetence printed on their heads. You must know that during the period when the Death Eaters controlled Hogsmeade, there were always several unusual incidents happening here every day.
Happy conflict.
However, this harmonious scene is destined not to last long.
This is Hogsmeade, the territory of the Death Eaters. How could the Death Eaters, who had been domineering in Britain for a long time, tolerate fat meat that was beyond their control in their territory?
Of course, none of this has anything to do with Zuoko, he doesn't even think about these things.
After recording the name of the dark wizard who came to order the defensive cloak in the account book, Zuo Ke tore off the receipt and handed it to the other party. He raised his hand and knocked on the blackboard next to him. He slowed down and said to the outsider who was not good at English, "Deposit."
One galleons, pick up the goods in two days, during which time the deposit is allowed to be refunded.”
"OK, OK."
The black man gestured OK to him, left a galleone and left with a receipt.
Looking at the half-book of receipts in his hand, Zuo Ke felt that this world was really amazing. Black magic defense items were actually very popular among dark wizards.
It's extremely ironic when you think about it. It turns out that dark wizards are the ones who need dark magic defense more?
A sharp siren interrupted Zuo Ke's thoughts and brought Zuo Ke back from his dream of getting rich. When he came to the window and looked out, he found that everyone had come out of the house. The originally bustling long street
fell into brief confusion.
But the chaos was quickly quelled, because no fool would dare to joke about the alarm unless he wanted to die.
So the alarm suddenly sounded, which meant that the Death Eaters were back.
"Look over there, it's a dementor."
I don't know who suddenly shouted.
Everyone looked towards the entrance of Hogsmeade and saw a large black cloud coming towards this direction.
After a brief commotion, the chaos quickly calmed down.
They had expected the Death Eaters to come back with the Dementors.
As early as a few days ago, someone was spreading rumors in Hogsmeade that the Death Eaters would definitely not be willing to lose control of this black market and would come back with the Dementors.
The dark wizards who stayed in Hogsmeade to do black market business even held a brief gathering to discuss the matter.
Although this is a fragmented group, everyone has their own thoughts and wishes, and no one is willing to fight head-on with the Death Eaters. However, the Death Eaters have been too useless some time ago.
When there are more people than Death Eaters and they are stronger than Death Eaters, no one is willing to give up their interests in Hogsmeade and give up the great environment here.
As long as they don't run away in a hurry, how can they lose?
Naturally, they will win, and they naturally don't mind giving a hard lesson to those guys who like to bully them in front of Voldemort.
Who doesn't like beating up a drowned dog?
As for Voldemort.
This famous second-generation Dark Lord is not even as famous as Dumbledore in Europe. Most wizards have at least heard of his name, and some people don't even recognize him, so naturally they can't be afraid of him.
"Those who know the Patronus Charm can drive away those dementors!"
I don't know who yelled.
In fact, three dark wizards who knew how to use the Patronus Charm stepped forward and began to summon their own Patronus to resist the dementors.
In fact, most dark wizards are not afraid of dementors, but it still makes them uncomfortable to be around them, let alone from the enemy's side.
However, faced with the pressure of a huge number of dementors, the three patron saints were obviously unable to completely drive them away.
Dementors were hovering over Hogsmeade, a cold breath enveloped the entire village, and a layer of white mist appeared on the window glass.
It seemed that their lives were threatened, and some people apparated and left, but the dementors alone could not scare them, let alone make them surrender, let alone the enemy that prevented them from making money.
Several more silver lights flew out from all over the village, joining the team fighting the dementors.
In fact, this is normal. After all, we are a group of strangers we don’t know, so it is normal to have reservations.
Of course, it is relatively rare for dark wizards to use patron saints.
Not only do you not need a Patronus Charm to protect yourself, but many dark wizards believe that using a Patronus Charm will risk backfire.
…
Outside the village of Hogsmeade, Yaxley's face was ugly as he led the Death Eaters back. He never expected that dark wizards could actually use the Patronus Curse, and there were more than one.
Could this be a trap?
At this moment, Yaxley even had such thoughts.
There is no way, who has restricted his biggest trump card.
Without the help of this dementor, it would be difficult for them to subdue the dark wizard in Hogsmeade in a short time.
Yaxley wanted to retreat temporarily, but the current situation made it difficult for him to take a step back.
"We must let this group of outsiders know whose place this is, and whose rules the black wizards must follow if they want to trade in the Black Seat."
After completing the final mobilization, Yaxley led the team towards the entrance of Hogsmeade. He regretted not bringing the giants and werewolves with him.
"No troublemakers are welcome here."
"You're not welcome here, you weaklings."
A line of fire ignited in front of Yaxley, blocking the Death Eaters' way.
"This is the Dark Lord's territory."
Yaxley carried Voldemort out.
"Don't scare us with Voldemort, no one here is scared."
"how dare you……"
Sharp voices sounded from the ranks of Death Eaters.
"No troublemakers are welcome here."
"A wizard's life-and-death duel to decide who belongs here?"
Percival jumped out of the team and challenged the Death Eaters on the opposite side, "Do you dare? You little bastards."
This is the solution they discussed.
At least, this method is actually more in their interests than fighting with the dark wizards.
After winning the battle, everyone in Hogsmeade must give him two Galleons.
You can get generous rewards of thousands of galleons in one breath.
The others don't lose either. It's just two Galleons. It not only solves the problem, but also allows you to watch a wonderful duel without losing any money.
The most important thing is that they all have confidence in Percival. After all, he is a ruthless man who dares to hunt the Acromantula alone. He has also been among the best in the duel competition. Naturally, he cannot lose against that group of trash.
Yaxley's expression was ugly. Although he wanted to go on stage and kill the person opposite him, this... was too ridiculous.
"It seems that you are afraid. Do you just want to drive us away with those dementors?" Percival challenged. He didn't want to miss this opportunity to make money. "Or is there someone hiding among you?"
The bastard who got up wants to secretly cast the killing curse on me?
"What do you think this is..."
"We are all dark wizards, so naturally we rely on this to speak."
Percival didn't care about the murderous Death Eaters and continued to provoke, "Or do you want to start an all-out war with us, but I see that you don't have as many people here as we do. Who gave you the courage?
"
"Very good, duel." Yaxley gritted his teeth.
"It's a life-and-death duel." Percival corrected, "Of course, if you are scared, I don't care if you come with a few more."
"Very good, you are allowed to bring two assistants."
Although Yaxley felt that there was something wrong with this so-called life-and-death duel, it was better than the two sides fighting head-on here, so he agreed after feigning hesitation.
Yaxley ignored Percival and turned directly to the Death Eaters behind him.
"Who's coming?"
He looked at Snape, but the latter had no intention of standing up.
"Kill them, one thousand galleons each." Yaxley offered a heavy reward.
As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward.
After hearing that Yaxley had offered a reward of one thousand galleons, the crowd quickly became excited, and many Death Eaters were eager to try.
"You, you, and you."
Yaxley quickly picked out the candidates, among whom there was only one capable Death Eater, and the other two were his favorite thugs.
"Percival, kill those losers."
Hundreds of dark wizards were clearly divided on both sides to form a semi-arc, surrounding the two people in the middle.
"Since you have proposed a duel, if anyone does not abide by the rules of wizard duels, let's kill him together."
Yaxley took the initiative to stand up and said to everyone present.
"Now, both sides are ready!" Yaxley put the wand at his throat and said loudly, "Wait until I count to three, one - two - three -."
The duel begins.
Percival suddenly raised his wand over his shoulder, and after counting to three, he suddenly pointed the wand at the blond man opposite.
There was a loud bang.
A fireball flew out from the tip of the wand, blowing the person away before he could finish reciting Avada Kedavra.
Then there were two explosions one after another, and the big man fell directly to the ground, his life or death unknown.
"Percival, Percival!"
Seeing that Percival killed the opponent so neatly, applause and cheers resounded throughout Hogsmeade.
"You are really stupid. Are you British wizards just standing there and listening to you finish reciting Avada Kedavra?" Percival raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, then walked forward slowly and said, "Avada Kedavra."
This is how the curse should be used!"
next moment.
A ray of green light completely drowned the unknown Death Eater.
"you……"
Yaxley stared at the opponent with wide eyes. He really wanted to raise his wand and use Avada Kedavra to kill the guy in front of him.
"This is a duel of life and death, not a child's play." Percival showed a cruel smile to the Death Eaters, "Okay, I think he must be completely dead now, next one."
Yaxley looked at Snape, who shook his head, not knowing what he meant.
Anyway, I have no intention of going out on the field to duel with the opponent.
This can't be blamed on Snape, who made the opponent's duel style look familiar.
Yes, that looked familiar to Snape.
That seems to be the case with Albert Anderson.
That guy's silent magic is amazingly fast.
He even suspected that the guy in front of him was actually Anderson in disguise?
Sure enough, the remaining two assistants were not the opponent named Percival. Even if they were prepared from the beginning, the gap between the two sides was still very large. They were killed easily in just a few rounds. They looked as easy as stepping on someone.
A dead mouse.
"You have lost. If you still want to continue the duel, I will accompany you to the end." Percival spat on the corpse on the ground and said contemptuously: "However, you trash can't defeat me.
Let Voldemort come in person."
"You're going to pay for this."
Yaxley left these harsh words and retreated angrily with the Death Eaters.
"Look, those so-called Death Eaters are a bunch of trash. They will never try to take away our black market, our freedom, and the gold coins we have. Let those trash go to hell!" Percival raised his device.
With his money bag full of Gallons, he shouted to the dark wizards, "I'll treat you to a drink tonight to celebrate this great victory."
