To prevent his sister and girlfriend from being affected by Dumbledore's plans, Bell felt it was essential to stay informed about the situation.

As for whether Dumbledore was also kept in the dark because he had never experienced such long-distance spatial travel, and thus did not discover that the trophy had been replaced with Portkey?

Haha, Bell has never had such a naive idea.

So is this a disrespect towards the greatest White Wizard of this century?

Watch out, you might get beaten to death.

Next, Bell began to wonder what Dumbledore was planning to do. Why would he hand Harry over to Voldemort for no reason?

It didn't take long for Bell to discover Dumbledore purpose—to help Voldemort resurrect!

What? You're asking how Bell found out?

It can only be said that the Black Family, as one of the oldest Pure-blood Wizarding Family in the British Wizarding World, truly lives up to its reputation.

Previously, after acquiring the entire Black Family collection from Sirius Black, Bell hadn't even had a chance to properly examine it.

This time, in order to investigate Dumbledore's purpose, Bell specifically dug up all the Dark Magic knowledge treasured by the Black Family.

(Judging from Voldemort's appearance, it's clear he wasn't using white magic.)

Compared to white magic, Dark Magic will always be in the minority.

Thanks to this, Bell quickly found the relevant information.

Combining the relationship between Harry and Voldemort, as well as Voldemort's recent whereabouts, Bell quickly deduced Dumbledore's specific plan.

Now, Bell couldn't sit still any longer.

Although Bell looked down on Voldemort, that madman, it didn't mean he could ignore the latter's fighting prowess.

Don't you know that crazy people are usually better fighters than normal people?

Haven't you seen how mental hospitals need several people working together to subdue a madman?

Therefore, Dumbledore's desire to help Voldemort resurrect has seriously threatened the safety of Shanna and Hermione, and has also seriously crossed Bell's bottom line, making it impossible for him to stand idly by any longer.

And that's how Bell's series of actions tonight came about.

"Young Master, shall we make our move now?"

"Goodwin McBride, the captain of the Special Operations Team's First Division, who was standing next to Bell, said softly."

He simply couldn't understand why his Young Master would make them wait.

As soon as the Dark Lord was discovered, Goodwin suggested that there was no need to talk about Martial Morality with him; they should just all pull out their Wand and kill him!

After all, given the Dark Lord's current state, anyone with eyes and brains could see just how weak he was.

So this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

If left unchecked and the Dark Lord is allowed to continue his activities, who knows when that terrifying guy will regain his power?

Britain will be in danger then!

result...

"Goodwin, shut up! Follow orders!"

Sebas glared at Goodwin and reprimanded him sternly.

Sebas truly had a love-hate relationship with his subordinate Goodwin.

Goodwin has unwavering loyalty to his family and is also exceptionally talented in magic. Even if ten ordinary members attacked him together, they would not be a match for Goodwin.

This is why Goodwin was able to become the captain of the First Division Special Operations Team, the most powerful force in the Menethil Family.

However, in contrast to these advantages, Goodwin also has a major flaw: he is too straightforward!

Whether in speech or action, Goodwin is always single-minded, which has caused Sebas a lot of worry.

"Oh..."

After being reprimanded by the Brigade Commander, Goodwin obediently shut his mouth.

If Goodwin were to ask who in the family he feared most, it wouldn't be William, the patriarch, nor Elena, the patriarch's wife, who held an even higher position, but rather the family's steward and the Brigade Commander of the Special Operations Team — Sebas.

Goodwin thought that if this old man got angry, he might be even more terrifying than the Dark Lord in his prime!

"It's alright, Sebas."

Bell smiled and waved his hand, acting as a peacemaker.

He genuinely didn't mind Goodwin's questioning. Rather, he enjoyed dealing with such a straightforward person; it was both convenient and effortless.

Anyway, he doesn't need to formulate specific battle plans.

"Goodwin, you need to know, like Voldemort, cough cough..."

Bell quickly covered his mouth; he had almost blurted out Voldemort's name out of habit.

Unlike others, he wouldn't hesitate to utter Voldemort's name out of fear.

The problem is, Voldemort is right there not far away. Even though he's very weak, at such close range, Bell still can't be sure that Voldemort won't sense that someone has called his name.

If Voldemort senses this, their ambush tonight might be ruined.

"I'm talking about the Dark Lord. Such a rare event as the Dark Lord's resurrection is something we should definitely make the most of to maximize our profits."

Therefore, simply crushing the opponent is a waste.

Since he had nothing better to do, Bell gave Goodwin a brief explanation.

"Oh..."

Goodwin nodded.

He didn't understand a word!

What do those terms like "activity" and "profit maximization" mean? Why is it that he understands each word individually, but when they're put together, he has absolutely no idea what they mean?

This is truly amazing!

No wonder everyone praises Young Master intelligence; he truly is our Young Master.

Sebas, who knew Goodwin, that simpleton, all too well, could tell at a glance that the other was pretending to know what he didn't. He rolled his eyes and wanted to get rid of Goodwin so he wouldn't be an eyesore in his presence.

If the Young Master were to mistakenly believe that all the members of the Action Team were of Goodwin's intelligence level, then he, as the person in charge, would have no choice but to commit suicide to atone for his sins!

"Goodwin, go over there..."

Snap!

A loud, but surprisingly powerful, explosion suddenly rang out, startling Bell and the others and causing Sebas to swallow the rest of his sentence.

The Action Team members, hidden in the shadows of the woods, all looked toward the cemetery outside the forest. There, besides the Egypt wizard who had been standing for half a day and whose legs were probably about to go numb, there were now two more figures.

"Seriously, what day is it today? Why is there a buy-one-get-one-free offer?"

Looking at Cedric lying next to Harry in surprise, Bell really wanted to interview him:

Why did he come? Did he travel a thousand miles to deliver a corpse, a small gift but a heavy sentiment?

I wonder if Cedric's presence here is also part of Dumbledore's plan.

In any case, the current situation is beyond Bell's expectations.
