Chapter 770: Underground Treasure Trove
The day after he returned to Cairo, as promised, Pergner had to take Van Lin to see The Jade Record.
As for the goblin letting Fan Lin go down alone, this is simply impossible, how can such a thing that is obviously a legendary item be safely allowed to be watched.
However, to Van Lin's surprise, Pergner actually led him down.
It doesn't seem like the goblin is too bad, at least he keeps his promise, and in this regard, Pogner does a better job than the average wizard.
"You can wait for me here in peace. Van Lin touched Hermione's head and admonished.
The girl was very worried about what happened to Van Lin going underground with the bad goblin, who did everything, and there were at least three spellbreakers buried in the ruins, but luckily, the goblin really brought Novia out.
"Hey, listen to the wizard, I have something to say before I go down," Bergner said impatiently, the collapse of the ruins in a terrible mood.
"We have to hurry, Mr. Al," Pergner shrieked, "you know, my time is precious, and I have a lot of things to attend to. ”
"Oh yes, perhaps, you can go down with me with someone else. Van Lin said indifferently.
"You have to have the head of Gringotts present. "Bergner seems to have been stepped on by the tail.
Well...... The goblin doesn't seem to have a tail......
"I don't know exactly what you want from the Jade Record, but I can tell you very bluntly that no matter what you want to get, it's impossible to get from the top of the Jade Record. "In fact, I doubt even that you can read the oldest Egyptian hieroglyphs, the difference between the pharaonic tombs, the Jade Record......"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bergner, as I said, all magic has traces, and words that carry magic are the embodiment of this trace, so ......"
"I don't think so. "Actually, I don't think there's any difference between the translation and the original, I've seen too many wizards, arrogant, arrogant, and each of them thinks they can gain enough knowledge and ability from the top of the Jade Record, but whoever comes, what I've seen, it's all empty-handed." ”
Bergner glanced impatiently at his pocket watch, which he quickly put in his arms again.
"In fact, most of the rumors about the Jade Record in the outside world are nonsense, in addition to the above knowledge, the body of the Jade Record is a mediocre stone slab, what shocking magical power, with such an idea, empty-handed is the inevitable result. ”
"I don't deny your point of view, Mr. Pergner," Van Lin said lightly, "but I still want to correct one of your mistakes, knowledge itself is a priceless treasure, with knowledge there are today's wizards, together the means and technology are all based on knowledge, not to mention, hieroglyphs itself is the most inclusive of a kind of magical language, in terms of these simple things, even if there is no desired gain, I believe that these most primitive hieroglyphs will bring me enough inspiration." ”
Van Lin certainly understood what the goblin meant.
The goblins looked down on wizards, especially the goblins of Gringotts in Egypt, and he didn't want to let him watch "Jade Record" at all, but because of the previous deal, Pegner had to agree to Van Lin to watch the original version of "Jade Record".
However, no matter how unhappy Pegner is, the original version of "Jade Record" ......
"I think we can go, Mr. Bergner. Van Lin was the first to jump into Gringotts' car.
To be honest, the car wasn't very comfortable, he was content with the form of a goblin, and for wizards, only underage wizards could accept it, anyway, Hagrid had never accompanied Harry to Gringotts after taking the Gringotts subway once.
Theoretically, Harry should still be in charge of Hagrid, but the rest of the days were done by Harry himself.
"What a waste of time...... "Pergner muttered dissatisfiedly, not scolding it was definitely saving his face for Van Lin, and now the two don't owe each other.
No one was talking all the way through.
Follow the track of Gringotts. The small minecart-like thing shuttled back and forth in a place that resembled a neon sign of vines, and Van Lin tried to remember the way, but it was obvious that it was impossible, even if he was a wizard, but in a second, he had made several corners in a row, and in this case, it was a blessing not to spit it out on the spot.
The terrain here is much more complex than that of London, and in fact, many of the railroad tracks are still buried underneath the gravel, and these passages are almost all maintained by magic.
Van Lin watched as Pegner controlled the pull tab and slammed the cart into a patch of yellow sand, as if it was a rain of sand in the sky, and Van Lin had to use magic to protect his surroundings.
The goblins don't have a reliable one to drive.
Van Lin and Hermione had been to their underground vault in Gringotts, England, and it had been a terrible experience, walking through the flames of dragons and the waterfalls of anti-magic.
Pogner's driving skills are not much better than those in England, and the point is, the goblins don't slow down at all.
Sparks erupted between the wheels and the railroad, and a tooth-aching sound hit Fanlin's mind all the time, and the cold wind mixed with the stinging pain of the yellow sand blowing on his face.
It was definitely one of the worst experiences in Van Lin.
With the passage of time, the transformation of different substrata will reveal the secrets hidden beneath the land of Egypt.
The second half of the race was almost entirely diagonally downward, and Van Lin had time to take in his surroundings.
With the increasing depth, layer after layer of landforms are revealed in front of the eyes of Van Lin, and the sand and stone are mixed not only with unique rocks, but also with the gradual revelation of ancient ruins from generation to generation.
It's as if Gringotts in Egypt was built on top of a ruin, and one by one became their natural treasure trove, and there was nothing safer than the methods of the ancient warlocks.
This is probably also characteristic of Egypt.
At least in Europe, there are no ruins of this magnitude, and in the East it is, but no one has ever reached through it.
The East is very dangerous, this is practiced by almost all wizards, and the different systems of magic make wizards suffer a little.
However, such a large-scale ruin is really an eye-opener for Van Lin, and the goblins are not useless, they know how to make use of every resource they can use.
However, as the depth continued to decrease, the original treasure trove of ruins has also become Gringotts' unique metal alchemy gate, and the "Jade Record" is still placed in a deeper place.
These stingy goblins, they always keep a close watch over their most precious treasures, even if this thing does not belong to the goblins, but the theory pursued by the goblins is that in their hands, no matter who it once belonged to, the goblins have rightfully obtained it, and it is theirs.
It's really a god-like legitimate acquisition, and Van Lin has never seen that goblin fiddle with alchemy.
