"Mr. Nightmare, this is the dark magic book you asked for."
Andy Johnson, the owner of Andy's Book Store, which specializes in selling black magic books, flattered the black-robed wizard who was wearing a black mask with a strange red smiley face in front of him.
Especially when he glanced at the space extension bag hanging on the opponent's waist, his face was even more enthusiastic.
But there was a trace of imperceptible greed in his eyes.
He just saw that the wizard easily took out 2,000 gold galleons to buy his magic book.
No negotiation.
One can imagine how many money he had on him.
Although the other party concealed his identity,
Andy looked at the large number of magic books placed on the counter, and lightly glanced at one of the light blue magic books.
A trace of pride flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, Lockhart, after checking each book, nodded slightly.
Then, he said calmly to the Book store owner Andy: "No problem."
After finishing speaking, he reached out and took out the space extension bag on his waist. He flicked the wand and all the books automatically entered the extension bag.
Lockhart put the space extension bag back on the waist and turn around to leave.
The boss Andy looked at Lockhart's leaving figure and said enthusiastically: "Thank you Mr. Nightmar, please come again. Ill provide more magic book for you"
After Lockhart heard this, he left without replying.
Seeing that Lockhart had left his Book Cafe, the enthusiasm on Andy's face turned into a cold smile.
Then, he took out a magic compass from his waist, injected it with magic power, and adjusted the frequency. The pointer on the compass rotated rapidly as if it was activated.
Soon, as if sensing something, the pointer slowly stopped and pointed in the direction Lockhart left.
Seeing this, Andy nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that the other party had not noticed what he had done.
With his thoughts turning, he glanced outside and found that there was no one around. He took out a bottle of magic potion - polyjuice potion - from the extension bag in his waist space.
Put a strand of hair in it, shake it slightly, and drink it in one gulp with a grimace.
At this moment, Andy kept feeling nauseated and even wanted to vomit.
But at the same time, his body became distorted, the originally fat body became tall and thin, and the face began to look a little childish.
Subsequently. He took out a set of black wizard robes and a mask, and quickly put them on.
Then
"Aura Concelment!"
"Light feet!"
Andy's figure quietly disappeared, as if he didn't exist at all.
As a dark wizard, caution is a must.
one must not expose one identity, otherwise the other party will make a big publicity or retaliate after you are lucky enough to escape.
Who would dare to buy books from him in the future?
After Andy walked out of the store invisible, he looked at the information transmitted by the magic compass and hurried forward.
At the same time, the door of the Book Cafe slowly closed, and signs of shop closed gradually appeared on it.
Soon, he spotted the figure of the man in black robe with a strange smile outside the window of a shop.
So he waited quietly while the man in black robe walked out of the shop until he left Knockturn Alley.
However, what made him feel a little strange was that he always felt that something was wrong behind him.
But after careful inspection, there was nothing strange.
Maybe it's his psychology. After all, he will get rich in the next moment, so it's normal to be a little excited.
With his thoughts turning, Andy quietly watched every move of the man in black robe inside.
This shop sells some dark magic materials. Although he don't have a good relationship with the boss, the materials are really good.
He occasionally comes here to buy materials.
However, the source of the other party's materials is obviously not clean.
Like his magic books, in addition to those he purchased, there were also many he got from people who committed murder and steal them.
Time passed slowly, and Andy once again saw the man in black robe casually taking out hundreds of gold galleons to buy materials.
His eyes are even redder.
This is his money.
However, he looked at the other person and immediately took out the money without thinking.
what does that mean?
The opponent definitely has more gold galleons in his hands.
Thinking of this, Andy breathed a little quickly. If he really caught the other party, he would really make a fortune.
However, with so much money, what if the other party's strength or has power behind them
As Andy thoughts turn, there is always a trace of fear and uncertainty in his heart.
But when he thought about how easily the other party had just taken out thousands of gold galleons.
His heart was filled with greed even more.
Even if something goes wrong, the other party won't be able to find him, at most they will find the unlucky guy who he disguised himself as.
While Andy continued to build himself up mentally, his heart felt even hotter when he saw the man in black robe taking away a large amount of magic materials.
After a while, the man in black robe came out and walked towards other shops in Knockturn Alley.
And Andy was about to follow.
However.
He just glanced at the shop that sold magic materials and was shocked to find it.
The other party actually took out a magic cloak and put it on himself.
Immediately afterwards, the other party's figure disappeared.
This left Andy speechless.
It seemed that he was not the only dark wizard targeting the man in black robes.
Just as the thought came to his mind, Andy suddenly seemed to think of something.
His expression changed and he quickly looked behind him.
Seeing that there was no one behind him, he felt a faint chill running down his spine.
Is he really the first wizard to target this man?
With a lot of thoughts in his heart, Andy was hesitant in his heart. The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind. He must not be taken advantage of.
he want to give up, but reluctant to part with the large amount of money, treasures, and gold galleons that the man in black robe has.
Hesitation, hesitation, and finally, decision.
As long as he can hold it back, maybe he will be the oriole.
When he thought about the huge benefits after becoming an oriole, Andy's eyes were a little red and his heart was beating fast.
Then, he distanced himself and followed the man in black robe more cautiously.
This time, Andy saw the man in black robe passing by several shops, but not went in in.
Feeling slightly more relaxed inside.
The opponent should have their own purpose in coming to Knockturn Alley, and at the same time, there shouldn't be too many competitors.
After a while, Andy saw a man in black robe entering a shop and walking out again after a while.
What left him speechless was
The owner of this shop, like him, is also prepared to move against the black robe man.
The next moment, suddenly
"Are there anybody around? If so, please respond."
"After 3 seconds, I will cast a large-scale magic spell. When the time comes, I will reveal all those that hide"
"Let's come out and meet each other. How about a cooperation? Otherwise, if we get involved with each other and let each other escape, it will be a waste of money."
A slight voice came to his ears, and Andy's expression changed.
Obviously, someone is aware of the same possibility, but the other party is also worried and trying to seek cooperation.
cooperation is better and safer.
The thoughts turned, and the three seconds came quickly. At the same time, a subtle movement of magic power gradually appeared, and even tended to become bigger and bigger.
Andy was about to speak out to stop him, when suddenly, a completely different and subtle voice came to his ears again.
"Friends, stop casting spells. If our target discovered us, it will be in vain."
"I don't know if there are any other friends around. If you hear me, go to an alley and lets meet to discuss cooperation."
"Whoever dares to cause trouble will be attack."
Hearing this, Andy also made a sound to show his presence.
Judging from the current situation, cooperation is the safest, with so many wizards cooperating. He didn't believe that the other party could really escape.
Although the income is less, it is safe.
Then, he took a look at the magic compass in his hand and found that there was still no problem.
Then he rushed to the place mentioned just now.
After a while, in the dark alley, five men in black robes wearing masks stood together, looking at one another
"Hurry up, what is the plan? We need to do this quickly or else the target might escape."
"Okay, I have a magic item in my hand that restricts teleportation"
"I have one in my hand."
"."
Soon, there was a heated discussion in the alley, but time was limited and the plan of action was quickly finalized.
As for the final plan achive, everyone only mentioned an average distribution and did not discuss it in detail.
They know very well that this ultimately depends on everyone's strength, and equal distribution is always just a guise.
At this moment, Lockhart had just walked out of a shop. After thinking for a moment, he realized that he had gone to almost 10 shops and spend almost 20,000 gold galleons.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, the cost today is really huge.
If he hadn't owned a gold galleons production and looted Lestrange's underground vault.
He is afraid, even his entire net worth won't be enough.
However, with nearly 7,000 gold galleons recently minted, it's time to go to Gringotts' underground vault to complete the final plan.
Only then can it be truly used for circulation.
After a large amount of gold Galleons circulate, the wizarding world will definitely be more interesting after inflation.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Lockhart quickly gathered his thoughts.
Everything that needs to be bought has been bought. To be precise, the first phase to layout the Knockturn Alley is over.
Now it's time to start the second phase.
The best hunters often come in the form of a prey!
This is a saying that Lockhart was familiar with in his previous life, and he believed it deeply.
However, the group of dark wizards behind seemed to be very powerful. He only occasionally noticed some traces, but he was not sure of the final number.
It has to be said that any dark wizard who can survive in Knockturn Alley and even open a shop has good skills.
Therefore, he must be more cautious.
Andy and others saw the figure of the man in black robe walking towards the entrance of Knockturn Alley, and their hearts were lifted.
The other party is finally leaving.
If the opponent stay in Knockturn Alley, it will be difficult for them to take action.
After all, if you were to take action outside in Knockturn Alley, that is, in the outer area, no one would care.
But here, in the core area of Knockturn Alley, if they really want to take action, they will violate the unspoken rules.
Once the trouble gets bigger, it will be very difficult. Maybe someone will use this excuse to kill them.
Every dark wizard tightened their grip on their wand.
With their rich experience in killing and stealing.
The moment when the opponent is about to leave is the moment when he is most relaxed and has the highest probability of killing or stunning him.
Fortunately, a teleportation ban has been placed. Otherwise, if the other party manage to teleport, there is a certain probability of failure.
Soon, in their eyes, the man in black robe stood at the exit, stretched out his wand, and touched it lightly a few times.
Click! Click!
Just when the wall moves.
"Imperio!"
"Stupefy!"
"Crucio!"
"Oppugno!"
"."
Almost instantly, they cast various dark spells that they were good at, and shot them at each other.
In order to maximize their profits, they did not directly apply killing spells.
However.
puff! puff!
Like a phantom, the curse passed through the body of the man in black robe, and it had no effect at all.
at the same time
Crack! Crack! Crack!
There were sounds of shattering mirrors next to their ears. Looking out of the corner of their eyes, they saw a familiar figure standing behind them.
Suddenly their heart sank.
It's over, they seem to be in a trap.
The next moment, they were shocked to find that they were back in the alley again.
But everything around is gray and white.
And it was very quiet, as if it was not like the human world, but like hell.
When a group of people saw such a scene, some were at a loss, some were worried, and some started searching frantically.
Because they seemed to have seen similar things in some legend.
"Temporary space!"
"."
The wizards who seemed to think of it all exclaimed.
One of the black-robed wizards looked cautious, even fearful, and his companion who spoke very fast explained to him: "We must work together. This should be a top-notch space spell."
"It is said that only the most powerful wizards have abilities to used this."
"The last time it was used was when Dumbledore used it in the duel with the Dark Lord Grindelwald."
After hearing their companion's explanation and looking at the black shadow that seemed to be watching them in the distance, a group of dark wizards looked a little shocked and frightened.
"Apparate!"
"Apparate!"
"."
For the first time, many dark wizards used apparition in an attempt to escape.
Some directly took out a portkey.
But unfortunately thing are not going in a direction they wanted
