Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

The vault with the number less than 100 will not be opened?

Although the chief fairy has stated that this is for safety, if it is so, why didn't Gringotts simply suspend all services?Even if it is not disguised as a ruin like the Dark Ling Pavilion, for the moment, closing the business seems to be a reasonable choice.

However, Gringotts not only didn't do that, but instead only restricted the vaults within a hundred... Isn't this a bit of an overwhelming taste?

Remember that the smaller the number of Gringotts vault number, it means that the larger the vault is, the more important it is. The vaults with the number below 100 are usually owned by wizard families that have accumulated large sums of wealth.These families usually store a lot of valuable but not practical collections here, and generally don't use them much.

Obviously, if it was not for Maca's need today, then Mr. Parkinson would not be able to open the family vault.And this also means that no one noticed this matter at all.

Presumably, it was precisely because of this consideration that the goblins of Gringotts used the appearance of normal service to cover up, instead of choosing to seal up the entire underground vault.Because in that case, it will be implemented after the fact.

Of course, the premise is that Gringotts is really planning something secretly.

"Doesn't it open within 100?" Maca thought for a while, and quickly said, "Forget it, go to my vault! No. 213—"

While talking, he took out his vault key from his waist and put it on the counter casually.

Originally, when I first came to Gringotts to rent a vault, because Maca didn’t have much money at the time, I only used the smallest model numbered above 1000.It wasn't until the money he earned later that he had earned more money before he replaced it with a medium-sized treasury located deeper underground.

Now Maca is a little bit lucky, because the next vaults are occupied by people, he can only change the number 200 or more when changing the vault.If he had been changed to within a hundred at that time, it is estimated that he would have to sneak in with Mr. Parkinson today.

"Oh... No. 213, um... OK."

The chief goblin picked up the key and looked at it. After a short pause, he nodded.

"Pull the ring, take Mr. McLean and Mr. Parkinson to No. 213... You know, take the track of Burglar Falls!"

"Yes, sir."

On the seat not far away, one of his assistants jumped off the high stool, walked around the counter and gestured towards Maca and them:

"You two, please go here."

Maca shrugged, put away the staff in his hand, and walked to the side of the passage with the chief assistant named "Grahuan".Parkinson behind him saw this. Although he looked a little confused, he quickly put his key in and hurried to catch up.

The two followed the pull ring from the side entrance corridor to the back of the hall, and they passed through three safe passages guarded by fairy guards in succession, and they reached a place that looked like a Muggle subway station.

There are quite a lot of minecart rails arranged here quite densely, and under the intertwined rails is a huge pothole with no bottom.

Just standing on the edge and looking down, it's as if the downside is straight to hell. People with fear of heights certainly don't like this kind of place.

And it’s worth mentioning that the underground vault of Gringa is definitely much deeper than the dark pavilion-the deepest part of the two may actually be the same, but the dark pavilion itself is underground after all. This is undoubtedly determined by their respective locations. The difference decided.

"this way please."

Griphook pointed to the second rail in his right hand, and stepped forward and kicked his leg on the rail.Soon, a minecart suddenly fell off their heads and landed exactly on the rails.

Then, he took the lead to roll over and crawl in.

"Come on, Mr. Parkinson."

Maca rolled his head and motioned for the other party to follow, and then he also boarded a slightly narrow minecart.After Parkinson came up, the pull ring immediately pushed the middle lever forward, and the minecart slid forward along the track with three people.

As the minecar shook all the way, sometimes swirling and sometimes diving, the pull ring also constantly moved the lever left and right to switch the road, making the minecar sway very badly.

In some places, even a section of rail is missing, relying on the inertia of minecarts to leap over.

Seriously, if a Muggle playground dared to build such a roller coaster, it would definitely lose money.

During this period, they also passed a huge waterfall.The rushing water curtain looked very real, but when the minecart passed through the middle, it didn't touch any splashes.

This is the anti-thief waterfall in the Gringotts underground vault. It is said that all vicious curses with continuous effects will be washed away when passed, and even in the past, there were wizards who suffered powerful curses to get rid of curses for free. story.

When Maca passed there, he had to secretly cast magic to block it, so as not to wash away some of the immortal magic that he had left on the run.

Not long after, when he tilted his neck slightly to look deeper into the huge crater, the pull ring suddenly pulled the metal rod back.Immediately afterwards, with a spark and a harsh "crunch", the minecart stopped suddenly.

"The Vault 213 is here, please get off the two of you."

Seeing that Griphook was about to jump on the rock platform next to him, Parkinson also subconsciously moved, but Maca who was sitting next to him gently tugged him.

"Mr. Parkinson, do you remember the specific location of your family treasury?"

"what?"

Hearing this, the other party was stunned.

"Oh...no, actually I rarely come to Gringa, and you see, these tracks are messy, and most people really can't remember."

"Then there's no way."

Maca nodded, and suddenly looked at the goblin pull ring that had been transferred to the rock platform, and his eyes flashed with the power of soul rules.

"My No. 213 does not need to be opened, so let's take us to the No. 83 vault!"

"Oh, this can't work, we can only... can only..."

Grip Huan said blankly, his expression became more and more hesitant, as if he had encountered a problem that caused him to have a psychological contradiction.But at the end, he nodded slowly.

"...Well, number 83...but we may meet President Algot down below, and the president...he won't let you in."

"Really?" Maca nodded slightly. "What is he doing there? Are you planning to take the largest treasury for yourself?"

"'Taking possession of it'? No no..." Griphook said in a daze, "We are just cleaning up some large vaults that no one inherits... They are no longer claimed. They are abandoned properties. Who will pick them up? Whoever gets it."

Hearing this, Maca couldn't help shook his head, and then said to Parkinson beside him: "It seems that at least your family's vault should be fine."

After that, he turned his head and asked Griphook:

"One more question-why did you choose this time to clean up the treasury? Could it be... you want to run away?"

Before the voice fell, Griphook immediately replied:

"It depends on the situation... we just received a notice from the Dark Ling Pavilion family. We, G Ling Pavilion and Dark Ling Pavilion, unanimously decided not to participate in the fight outside... So, if Diagon Alley is still there , We won’t run; and if we can’t even guard Diagon Alley, we will immediately retreat to the ruins of the old underground country.”

"Old Underground Country?"

When Maca heard it, she suddenly raised her eyebrows, and her heart moved slightly.

Yes, he also knew that fairies once had their own kingdoms, but the kingdoms of fairies recorded in history are on the ground like human beings. They just naturally like to hollow out caves to live in.

But later, no matter how tenacious the fairies, their land has been compressed and eaten by wizards.In particular, several wizarding wars have dragged a country of fairies into it, eventually leading to their complete destruction of the country.

And this is actually just a matter of hundreds of years ago.

Based on what Griphuan said, the Fairy Kingdom may not have been completely destroyed at the time, but instead chose to go deep underground to preserve its power in order to avoid war.

It is no wonder that after the war had subsided a little bit, many more fairies emerged from the horns and got into the wizarding society in one fell swoop in the chaos after the war.

However, Maca has no interest in the survival of the Fairy Kingdom. What he cares most now is actually how big is the so-called "underground old country ruins" in the mouth of the ring?

According to the current situation, that might be the last escape route for them to fight Haierbo!

"Well, anyway," Maca shook his head, "Pull the ring, take us to the 83rd vault, don't worry about the others."

It is obviously too early to consider those things. Although it is necessary to take precautions, there are obviously more and more urgent things to do.

Soon, Maca put the pull ring on the mine cart again, and continued to drive deeper into the underground vault.
