"Tom, it's not a nice thing to go to someone else's wedding and mess up."
Dumbledore drew his wand and looked at Voldemort standing fifty feet away with a faint smile on his face, as if the person standing in front of him was an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time, rather than a mortal enemy.
Judging from Voldemort's reaction, Dumbledore was already certain that the other party was most likely here to stop him. It was really strange to say that he was actually here to stop Voldemort as well, and the purposes of both parties were surprisingly the same.
The reason is not difficult to guess.
Whether it was the Ministry of Magic, the Death Eaters, or even Dumbledore himself, or Voldemort in front of him, they were all part of someone's plan.
When Voldemort and his Death Eaters were planning to cause trouble at Albert's wedding, given their personalities they would most likely not give up.
Therefore, Albert planned to teach the Death Eaters a lesson with the help of the Ministry of Magic, and the Death Eaters obviously guessed that there might be a trap, so they planned to take advantage of the situation and also made sufficient preparations.
Dumbledore was not angry.
Neither he nor the Ministry of Magic suffered any loss.
Albert achieved a win-win situation.
Before coming here, Scrimgeour told him that the Ministry of Magic would use Anderson's wedding to launch an ambush against the Death Eaters, hoping that he could delay the mysterious man who might appear at the critical moment.
As long as the plan succeeds, the Ministry of Magic will be able to gain great prestige, and the relationship between Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic will be eased. More importantly, Voldemort's forces will suffer a severe blow. I believe that the wizarding world will usher in a period of stability in the future.
"Stop being so hypocritical, it's disgusting."
Voldemort spat in disdain and fired a deadly spell at Dumbledore. An ominous green light lit up around him, as if to completely engulf him.
Dumbledore dodged Voldemort's fatal blow effortlessly. He raised his wand lightly and counterattacked, also firing a deadly magic at Voldemort.
The Killing Curse and Dark Magic aren't the only things that can kill people.
When the golden spell was about to hit Voldemort, a silver shield was summoned from the void by Voldemort, directly deflecting the terrifying and deadly spell.
This is not the first time the two have dueled.
Both sides tried to kill each other a long time ago, but neither succeeded.
Even though Dumbledore had the upper hand most of the time, Voldemort was equally difficult to deal with. As long as one party was careless in the duel, the other party might take his life.
If possible, Voldemort actually didn't mind exchanging his own life for Dumbledore's. Even if both of them died, Dumbledore would always be the loser.
Because as long as he still has the Horcruxes, Voldemort can continue to resurrect. I believe that in a world without Dumbledore, the Death Eaters will be willing to help him restore his body.
As for Harry Potter, it's totally unworthy of mention.
Voldemort's attacks became more and more fierce, causing Dumbledore to secretly increase his vigilance.
After the stone in front of him was pierced by the spell, Dumbledore took the opportunity to turn the surrounding ground into a swamp, creating terrain that was favorable to him.
Voldemort immediately Apparated to avoid being trapped by Dumbledore's magic.
His action was completely within Dumbledore's expectations.
Because most of the surrounding environment had turned into a swamp, when Voldemort reappeared, he stepped directly into the swamp. He made a mistake for a moment and was pulled into the swamp by the mud that climbed up to his ankles. Even his spell was temporarily interrupted, and he could only hold up the silver shield in front of him to prevent Dumbledore's magic.
Dumbledore instantly caught the opportunity and pointed his wand at the swamp. A strong electric current was injected directly into the swamp from the tip of the wand. In the blink of an eye, the strong current spread along the muddy and wet swamp to Voldemort, causing his body to be temporarily paralyzed, and a large amount of black smoke came out of his robes.
A large amount of mud surged up from under the swamp, and with Dumbledore's wand, in the blink of an eye it climbed over Voldemort's body, trying to imprison Voldemort.
Dumbledore had thought about using a spell to kill Voldemort directly, but the most likely possibility was that it would be blocked by the silver shield.
If Voldemort could be captured alive, it would actually be a good option. You could try to kill him through the stone archway in the Hall of the Dead in the Department of Mysteries.
Although it was Albert's suggestion, Dumbledore had thought of using this method to eliminate Voldemort a long time ago.
Once you pass through that stone archway, you are taken to the world of the dead.
Even though Voldemort has Horcruxes and his main soul is not easy to destroy, it does not mean that he will not die.
The only problem was how to tie up Voldemort and throw him in. This was undoubtedly impossible, and even Dumbledore could not accomplish this feat.
He knew very well that Albert brought up this matter mainly to give Scrimgeour confidence. Only with confidence can one avoid despair. Hope is important.
With a loud bang, all the shackles wrapped around Voldemort exploded. While he was struggling to break free, he quickly summoned a silver shield to block Dumbledore's spell.
The wand in his hand did not forget to slide under his feet, and the mud that had originally wrapped around his ankles turned into a snake, and swam away from Voldemort's feet. The moment it fell into the swamp, it actually expanded into a giant snake and pounced directly at Dumbledore, buying precious time for Voldemort.
When the giant snake was easily torn into pieces by Dumbledore's spell, the weeds around the two were turned into thin snakes by Voldemort, and rushed towards Dumbledore madly with Voldemort's hissing.
At the same time, Voldemort raised his wand almost at the same time, ready to strike hard at Dumbledore.
No matter whether Dumbledore cleared the poisonous snakes around him, or took on the snakes' counterattacks, or Apparated to dodge, he could not easily avoid Voldemort's next attack.
Ultimately, Dumbledore chose to Apparate to avoid Voldemort's next attack, and when he reappeared, he was floating in mid-air with Fawkes in his claws.
Voldemort obviously did not expect Dumbledore to appear in the sky, and he was a little slow in reacting. By the time his wand drew an arc and pointed at the figure in the sky, he had already missed the best opportunity.
There was a loud bang, like a cannon, and a terrible red light shot straight towards Dumbledore in the sky.
Fawkes seemed to have expected this, and he nimbly dodged Voldemort's fatal blow and dived down with Dumbledore.
Dumbledore waved his wand, spewing out a large amount of flames, turning the ground into a sea of fire, and all the poisonous snakes were swept away by the blazing fire.
When Voldemort turned his wand towards the target again, Dumbledore and the phoenix turned into a whirlwind of gold and red and disappeared.
Then, the deadly green light missed again, and Voldemort almost instinctively moved his wand in a certain direction.
When Dumbledore appeared again, he saw a spell flying towards him. He raised his wand and used a spell to block it directly, and the two sides entered into a struggle of magical power again.
As for the blazing flames around, with a wave of Dumbledore's free hand, they rushed towards Voldemort like surging waves.
The next second, Voldemort opened his mouth and spit out a wisp of devil flame, and the surrounding flames were dyed by the devil flame, turning into countless monsters surging in the sea of fire, quickly engulfing the surrounding sea of fire and turning into a more terrifying devil flame.
Voldemort laughed triumphantly and sent the devil's fire directly towards Dumbledore. Seeing that the black flame was about to engulf Dumbledore, the opponent's free arm suddenly swung, and part of the devil's fire actually rolled back and spread to Voldemort's body.
“Damn it!”
Voldemort could no longer laugh and immediately put out the devil's flames on his body, otherwise even he might be burned to death by them.
While Voldemort was distracted, Dumbledore waved his hand to disperse the devil's flames that were rushing towards him.
"It seems that you are doomed!" Voldemort waved his wand, and the surrounding devil's fire rushed towards Dumbledore.
"It's getting out of control!" Dumbledore said suddenly.
"Do you think I care about this?" Voldemort attacked Dumbledore again: "Or are you afraid?"
The two sides once again engaged in a struggle of magical power, but Voldemort found that his magical power was suppressed by Dumbledore again. He really couldn't understand why Dumbledore's magical power was still so powerful as an old man who had lived for a century.
Most wizards’ magical powers, even if they don’t decline drastically, should be much weaker than before when they get older. At the very least, they can’t be stronger than himself, but the reality is that he lost the wrestling.
It didn't matter, because Dumbledore was going to die here.
"It's really surprising that you want to drag me to death with you?" Dumbledore looked Voldemort up and down and said in a surprised tone.
"You are the only one who will die here!" Voldemort sneered.
"No, I won't die. You forget that I actually have helpers." Dumbledore reminded with a smile, "This is never a fair fight."
"Helper..."
Suddenly, all the devil flames around him went out, and Voldemort had a bad feeling because he actually smelled the breath of death.
With a loud "bang", the silver shield seemed to be hit hard by a sledgehammer, making a buzzing sound like a big bell.
Voldemort swung his silver shield quickly, allowing it to block Dumbledore's spell, and then disappeared.
When Voldemort appeared again, he was already near Albert and shot an Avada Kedavra Curse directly at him.
The Killing Curse blew up an iron shield that appeared out of thin air, and Albert behind the iron shield had disappeared. He appeared directly beside Voldemort, waving his wand like a knight. The ground cracked directly and spread towards Voldemort, as if someone was wielding a sword, ready to split him in half.
Voldemort dodged easily, but when he appeared again, he was covered by a large-scale explosive spell, and violent explosions sounded continuously.
"You bastard..." Voldemort hadn't finished his words yet before he quickly bent down to dodge because an Avada Kedavra curse was flying directly towards him.
As Albert waved his wand, more Avada Kedavra flew towards Voldemort as if they were free. Voldemort probably didn't expect someone to use the Killing Curse for free, so he had to use the silver shield to help block the Killing Curse. The impact of the explosion directly blew Voldemort away.
Voldemort disappeared again. He did not use magic to resist the aftermath of the explosion, because the next moment, another Avada Kedavra curse flew towards Voldemort. If he did not Apparate immediately, he would probably be hit directly by the Killing Curse.
Before Voldemort could wave his wand, Dumbledore's magic was already flying towards him, forcing him to Apparate again.
If it weren't for his skill, an ordinary person would have been killed before he could Apparate.
Albert waved his wand and a spell exploded in the air. A large number of light spots directly covered an area. This was another use of the obstacle spell, which could make creatures within a range move slowly.
Most ordinary magic can actually be used in many different ways after being developed.
When Voldemort appeared again, he realized that there was something wrong with the spots, so he had to Apparate again. However, Dumbledore's magic appeared in his sight very well, and Voldemort had no choice but to let the spells collide with each other. If it was just an ordinary spell, he could use the spell to collide with it, but some dangerous spells were difficult to do.
The two wands were linked together again through magic, and Albert obviously would not give Voldemort any chance to breathe, and another Avada Kedavra curse flew towards Voldemort.
Voldemort was forced to Apparate again, and this time it was Albert's turn to wrestle with him.
He was furious to find himself being overpowered, the mudblood in front of him having more magical power than he did.
"To be honest, I'm very angry." Albert warned in a cold tone: "If you dare to disturb my wedding again, I will kill your servants. Don't think you can protect them forever. I'm not Dumbledore. I don't mind exchanging the heads of Death Eaters for rewards. If you don't believe me, you can try it."
Voldemort suddenly said: "We are very similar."
"I have my own lover, but you don't. I have a lot of Galleons, but you don't. I have many friends, but you only have a bunch of servants. I am handsome and popular, but you have turned yourself into an ugly monster without a nose and hated by others." Albert sneered: "How dare you say that we are similar?"
After being sarcastically ridiculed by Albert, Voldemort's face was completely distorted with anger, and his scarlet eyes stared at Albert, as if he wanted to kill him with his eyes.
"Albert is right. You should have had a better future. It's a pity that you went astray and ended up in this state."
Dumbledore did not take the opportunity to attack, but stopped to talk to Voldemort, because he knew very well that it was impossible to keep Voldemort.
"Albert Anderson, don't think that Dumbledore can always help you. There will always be a time when you are alone, and you can never be a match for Voldemort." Voldemort Apparated away. He knew that he could not kill the Mudblood, and Albert and Dumbledore put a lot of pressure on him.
