Chapter 329: Finally Arrived
Bellatrix ......
"Master."
"Take Ike to your family's vault and give him that thing."
"Yes, master."
Before Scrimgeour arrived, when the Death Eaters and Dark Wizards had just gone after the escaped ones, the old man who had remained in front of Gringotts glanced at Ike and turned to Bella, who had stayed behind on purpose.
"Thank you, teacher." Ike bowed slightly at the right time to show his respect.
"No, you deserve it." Lao Fu replied casually, "Go ahead, if all goes well, when you come out of Gringotts, you will be able to see Scrimgeour's body." ”
As soon as the words fell, Lao Fu left directly.
Bella bent down and motioned for Ike to follow, knocking on the gringotts' still glittering door.
After a while, the streamer on the door disappeared, the confined door slowly opened, and Bella immediately walked in.
The chaos outside didn't bother Gringotts, the spacious marble foyer was not a little dusty, and the hundred and ten elves sat peacefully behind the counter, still busy with their own business, and didn't even look up when Bella and Ike passed by.
Bella strode over to an older elf, the high counter forcing her to tilt her head slightly. The elf was examining a thick gold coin through the lens when he saw Bella coming over, and said in surprise, "Lady Lestrange, you ...... today." What can I do for you? ”
"I'm going to go into my vault." Bella said.
"You...... Do you have identification? The older elf lowered his lenses and asked, clasping his hands on the edge of the counter.
Bella took a small pendant from her pocket and threw it on the counter, and the goblin picked it up and looked at it carefully, and then gave it back to Bella.
"Yes, Mrs. Lestrange, please wait." He turned to a young leprechaun and said, "I need a jingle piece." ”
The young goblin trotted away, and after a while handed a small leather bag to the older elf. The inside of the bag should be filled with metal pieces, which make a clanging sound when running.
"Please come with me, Mrs. Lestrange." The older goblin, with a small leather bag, jumped down from behind the counter and trotted in front of the two, "I'll take you to your vault." ”
The elf led the two through the marble foyer and pushed open a nondescript door next to the hall. Behind the door, there is a narrow stone corridor, and the walls on both sides are hung with torches, which illuminate the stone corridor very brightly. After another steep descent, a small railway appeared in front of them.
The older elf whistled, and a small cart slammed down the railroad tracks, coming to a stop in front of them.
"Please get in the car." The older elf said and sat at the front of the cart, just enough for Bella and Ike to sit at the back. After confirming that the two of them were seated, the fairy waved his hand, and the cart started suddenly.
The speed was fast, and the stalactites on both sides fell backwards quickly. It's like a roller coaster, with the cart going up and down, sometimes spinning, but generally downward.
Suddenly, the cart made a quick turn, and a waterfall appeared in front of it, crashing into the rails. In just a few seconds, they crossed the waterfall and stopped outside an apparently decorated walkway.
"It's not far ahead." The goblin got out of the car and took out something that looked like a barbell from his small leather bag, making a crisp sound as it shook.
Continuing deeper along the road, after turning a corner, there is a very spacious stone plaza on which a fire dragon lies on it.
It must have been low for too long, its scales had turned pale, its eyes were cloudy pink, its two retreats were locked by heavy shackles, and the thick chain was deeply driven into the ground, looking very strong.
The fire dragon sensed their arrival, and its huge, ugly head turned around and let out a deafening dragon groan.
"Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell ......"
The fairy shook the jingle piece in his hand, and the sound of jingle echoed between the stone walls, and the sound was very loud. The fire dragon let out a hoarse roar, but its body couldn't stop shaking, and it kept shrinking into the corner.
Another corridor was revealed, and the goblin led them over as he shook the jingle piece.
Entering the corridor, there are several iron gates. This is the safest place in Gringotts, and only a handful of families deserve a vault here.
The goblin came to a door, pressed his hands on it, and then the light rippled on the door like flowing water, and there was a sound like metal colliding, and the door gradually disappeared.
"Your coffer, Mrs. Lestrange." The goblin owed, and then walked to the side with a jingle piece.
Bella nodded, turned around and bowed slightly to Ike, and said, "Little master, that thing is inside......"
"Go and take it out." Ike said directly.
"Wait a minute, little master." Bella owed again, and then walked into the vault in front of her. Ike stood still, silently watching her walk towards the vault full of curiosities and gold coins.
The Lestrange family is unimaginably rich, with gold coins and various gold objects piled up to the ceiling, and the bright silver armor and blades look like the best of the goblins. There were also the skins and bones of all kinds of exotic animals, and the potions in ornate bottles, which were so messily placed on chests and cabinets.
Ike glanced hastily, but his gaze fell on the ordinary gold cup on the top of the innermost cabinet, but he only glanced at it before moving away, looking instead at a skull wearing a crown of jewels.
Bella didn't let Ike wait long, she entered the vault and walked straight to the innermost cabinet, reaching out to pick up a delicate wooden box from the top layer, next to the golden cup.
The box was not large, but only a dozen feet, about the length of a wand, and was easily held in Bella's hand.
"Little master, this is what the master wants to give you." She walked out of the vault and bent down to hand the box to Ike. Ike didn't open it, but stuffed it directly into his pocket and said softly, "Let's go, Bellatrix." ”
"Yes, little master." Bella bowed again and walked out after Ike. He hadn't gone far before a flash of light flashed behind him, and the door to the vault reappeared.
Walking out of the corridor, the goblin was still shaking the jingle piece, and when he saw the two of them, he didn't speak, just nodded, and led the two of them out, until he came to the side of the tracks, and then put away the jingle piece in his hand.
Putting the jingle back into their purse, the elf whistled, and a small cart popped up and stopped in front of them. When they were all up, the goblin started the cart and led them up the railroad tracks to the ground.
