Chapter 1619: The vault of the Lastrange family

Views:

"Be careful, be careful, the temper of this fire dragon has become more and more violent in recent years. It is too old to see clearly, so it wants to attack everything around it crazily. If the asking price of the Romanian dragon farm is not too high, We have already replaced a new fire dragon." The old goblin said dissatisfied, "The price of fire dragons in Europe and America is too high, those wizards only have gold in their eyes, we are communicating with China, and the wizards there expressed their willingness to pay a lower price." Sell us a Chinese fireball for the price."

As he spoke, he took out some small metal utensils and distributed them to everyone.

These metal utensils can be shaken, and when they are shaken, they will make a loud and crisp jingling sound, like a small hammer hitting an anvil.

"You know what to do." The old goblin said slowly, "As soon as it hears this sound, it will think of pain and retreat, and then we will go over and stop at the door of the Lestrange family's vault, I'll put my palm on it and open the door, the highest level of vault I'm authorized to open."

"Just put your palm on the door?" Ivan asked.

"Yes, Mr. Lestrange, is there a question?"

"It's a little problem, because there are still two of us, so" Ai Wen pointed at him with his wand, "The soul is out of the body."

The blissful sense of control flowed from his brain to his wand again, and the old goblin's bewildered, terrified expression changed to polite indifference.

"Hermione, Elaine, come out, we won't need him here." Ivan said and found two new metal utensils and handed them to Hermione and Elaine, "Smooth than expected, goblin We're too afraid of Bellatrix and the Death Eaters to act even in doubt."

The timing was just right, and today's operation went so smoothly that Ivan wondered if Voldemort had come to Gringotts to scare the goblins last night.

That's why the fairies are so docile.

"Evan, are you going to deal with them?" Hermione asked, pointing at the old goblin and Bellatrix.

"The Oblivion Curse is enough for the goblin, I can modify his memory, as for Bellatrix"

"Are you going to kill her?"

"She deserved it!" said Harry. "She did so many bad things that she should have been killed long ago."

"I know, but we are not the Wizengamot, have no right to judge, and have no right to kill. Even at the last moment, the Aurors are not authorized to take extreme measures against Death Eaters and Dark wizards, and we No." Hermione said hesitantly, "I know it's bad, but it's not in battle"

"So what are you going to do, take this woman back and release her?" Harry asked rhetorically, annoyed by Hermione.

"I don't know!" Hermione shook her head, "I've been thinking about it just now"

This is the case with wizards who are too kind or decent, sticking to principles and bottom lines too much, even if the other party is a heinous criminal.

Once some things are done, there may not be any mistakes, but you will feel very sorry for your conscience.

For example, killing people in non-combat situations, no matter how damnable the opponent is, is a brutal murder and an immoral act.

You can't lower your moral bottom line to the same position as the other party just because you want to fight against Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

But if they kill each other in battle, that's a different matter, otherwise they would fight Voldemort.

"I've thought about it, I think it would be a good choice to keep Bellatrix in the Lestrange family's vault, there is no need to kill her and dirty my hands, even if she deserves it, I You can cast a spell on her, so that she will remain unconscious until she is awakened, and when the war is over, we can tell Auror that she is here." Aiwen said, "I still plan to go to the No. 1 vault below to take a look. Look, you know the vault, the Slytherin vault."

"You mean, the vault of the Slytherin family?" Elaine asked suspiciously.

"Yes, many ancient pure-blood wizard families have vaults in Gringotts, and the Slytherin family is no exception. Salazar Slytherin owns the first vault after Gringotts was completed." Ivan continued Said, "Not to steal, you are now the legal heir of that vault, Elaine, we are qualified to open it."

"But we don't have the key."

"No one has it, but there is nothing wrong with going there to try your luck." Ivan said, raising the metal utensil in his hand, "Come on, let's go in."

They turned the corner again shaking the jingle piece, and the noise echoed between the stone walls and was amplified many times.

The dragon let out another hoarse growl and backed away. It could be seen trembling. As it got closer, the horrific scars on its face became clearer. It must have been trained to hear a jingle. Xiang was afraid of the fiery sword coming.

Because the distance is close enough, you can even feel the amazing heat from the dragon.

A few seconds later, everyone entered the small room at the end behind the dragon one by one.

As soon as the sound of Ding Dang Pian stopped, the angry roar of the giant dragon could be heard, as well as a wave of heat.

Even through the wall, the temperature is still surprisingly high.

After passing through a short tunnel, they came to a circular staircase that spiraled upward.

Twice the walls were vaults, with the crests of the wizarding families engraved on them.

At the top of the stairs, closest to the dragon's head, is the entrance to the deepest tunnel into Gringotts.

"The Lestrange family is here!" Ivan said, pointing his wand at the old goblin.

The old goblin moved, and he pressed his palm on the wood, and the door of the vault disappeared, revealing a hole. The cave was stuffed from floor to ceiling with gold coins and goblets, silver armor, the skins of all sorts of exotic animals with spines or wings, potions in vases, and one still wearing a crown. skull.

The size of the cave is huge. For a wizard family, even if it has accumulated for thousands of years, this is an astonishing wealth.

Griphook the goblin was right, Sirius' mother divided all the treasures of the Black family equally among her two nieces before she died.

That's why Bellatrix is so rich.

"Right here, where's Hufflepuff's cup?" Harry asked, about to rush in.

"Wait a minute, Harry, there are other magic inside." Ivan said, "We'd better be careful not to touch anything inside, especially gold. Well, let's go in together and stand at the entrance." Alright, then look for the golden cup."

They walked in and barely had time to look around when there was a dull metallic thud behind them.

The door reappeared, sealing them all in the vault, and it was dark all around.
