Chapter 331 Vault No. 8

Big shot? How big is it? Bigger than me?

When a certain little wizard no longer interacts with everyone as an ordinary person, but chooses not to pretend, it's a showdown.

The sense of oppression he brought to people was unprecedentedly strong.

From the moment Zhang Xiao assigned the title of 'Little Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain' to his equipment, every look, every movement and every word he said.

It is no longer his personal will.

Behind him is the entire Longhu Mountain and the entire Taoist sect.

This is to use force to suppress others. Bogrod felt that his mouth was extremely dry and he twisted the tie around his neck uncomfortably.

That look, and that tone. This is what is described in the record: "They stood aside and looked at us with extreme indifference, contempt and disdain, just like looking at maggots in the gutter."

But they looked at the half-clothed Muggles with such compassion, as if even the humblest Muggles were nobler than the goblin elders.'

Bogrod laughed dryly twice, then quietly bent his waist a few more degrees, rubbed his hands and said with a smile:

"Of course, of course, compared to you, these are certainly not big people."

Perenal calmly moved her eyes to Zhang Xiao. In a long time, she had seen too many people and things. Even in the East, she had heard a few words.

For example, the magical East is a place that wizards cannot touch. No matter who enters that ancient country, they will be sent back.

But Perenal never knew why goblins were so afraid of Zhang, interesting--.

Perenal withdrew his gaze thoughtfully, and curiosity suddenly arose in his heart. This was really a rare thing for an old man who was hundreds of years old.

It seems that if there is a chance, I still need to ask Zhang Xiao if he can satisfy the trivial curiosity of an old man who is about to die?

Not only Perenal, but even Goblin A couldn't help but widen his eyes at this moment. As a low-level Gringotts goblin, he certainly knew the owners of these vaults.

To be honest, even in the eyes of goblins, these wizards and the families behind them have to admit that these people are definitely the top figures in the wizarding world.

Supervisor, what's going on?

Bogrod didn't care to talk to this low-level elf who was not qualified to have access to the secrets of his family. He had already begun to introduce the owners numbered 1-9 one by one.

"Vault No. 1, I'm sorry, the name of the owner of this vault has been enchanted. We don't know it. Everything is confidential. Even I don't know any more information."

Hehe, Vault No. 1 is completely confidential?

Zhang Xiao immediately took this information to heart. How about blowing up Vault No. 1 while stealing the gold cup?

"Vault No. 2. It once belonged to the Gaunt family, and later to the Black family, but now, it belongs to the Bute family."

Bute family? No impression. Zhang Xiao frowned, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head and gave up.

"The Bute family?" Perenal's voice rang in her ears, and she said slowly in a tone with a hint of recollection and thought: "Is it the Bute family from Ilvermorny?"

"Yes, madam, you are truly knowledgeable and knowledgeable."

Bogrod complimented and just wanted to finish introducing the treasury quickly, so he started introducing the next one without stopping.

"Vault No. 3 belongs to the Malfoy family. Originally they were vault No. 9, but starting from Mr. Lucius's grandfather, it was raised to vault No. 3. It has not changed for a long time."

Turtle is worthy of being the richest man in the wizarding world, and Pony still has a reputation!

Zhang Xiao smacked his lips, thinking whether the Xiaoma family's treasury was piled up like a mountain of galleons.

Finally, Bogorod said what they had been waiting for: "Vault No. 4 belongs to the Lestrange family."

Weird sounds could be heard from time to time in the deep underground caves, the fire dragon made a hoarse low cry, the iron chains dragged on the floor, making a clattering friction sound, and the magic torch baked the surrounding air.

When the hot air encountered the cold stalagmites, it quickly cooled down and condensed into fine water droplets. The water droplets slowly rolled down, getting bigger and bigger, and finally broke free from their restraints under the action of gravity and fell to the earth. hug.

Perenal and Zhang Xiao raised their spirits at the same time and looked at the huge iron door. This was also where everyone guessed that the Hufflepuff Gold Cup was most likely to be hidden.

Why don't you go ahead and use the Imperius Curse to control Bogrod? As for the Elf Armor, give it to Perenaar, open the vault, eh, take it like this.

Get it done and leave!

The four elderly members of the Thieves Group stared blankly, thinking that they had just thrown the gold cup in front of Grindelwald, and Zhang Xiao's back suddenly became a little stiffer.

Who said vases are useless? No, who the hell is the vase?

At this moment, Perenal looked over. The eyes of the old man and the young man met in the air. In just a short moment, they actually understood what the other party meant.

"Do you want to cast the Imperius Curse now?"

"I think it's okay."

"Do you know the Imperius Curse?"

"I can't, what about you?"

"Neither can I."

"What were we talking about just now?"

"The vault is really big."

"Yeah, it's pretty big."

Perenal squinted his eyes and kept nodding, as if satisfied with the identity of the owner of the surrounding vaults.

Zhang Xiao stared at the pattern on the door, as if he wanted to see something from the things on the door.

"Vault No. 5 belongs to."

Bogrod didn't say much, but quickly introduced the owners of the remaining vaults:

"Dear Sir, this is the current owner of vaults 1-9. Which vault do you want?"

Zhang Xiao did not choose, but asked slowly:

"How will you vacate the vault I want? Empty it and give it to us?"

If so, then should we wait for them to vacate the vault and attack them halfway, catch them off guard, and then take advantage of the opportunity to get away with it, and everyone will be happy in the end?

"Of course not--" Bogrod immediately cut off Zhang Xiao's imagination, and he pointed at the huge rock pillar behind him with unconcealed pride--the nine vaults were surrounded by the rock pillar.

"This is a miracle that only goblins can do, the crystallization of wisdom for four hundred years. As long as there is a need, a new vault can be opened at any time, and the original vault will be postponed."

Alas. This road is blocked, and there is no loophole to drill

"Then let's go to vault No. 8." Zhang Xiao was bored and casually pointed to vault No. 8. This was originally the vault of the Shafik family, and now he can only apologize.

As expected, he is an oriental person, and he has a unique pursuit for 8. Bogrod's eyes fluttered, and he nodded to Fairy Armor. Fairy Armor immediately took out a silver dagger and slashed his arm hard.

The bright red blood dripped from the wound, and Fairy Armor's face was wrinkled in pain. He raised his injured arm and let the blood flow. Bogrod raised one hand and chanted a strange spell loudly in the fairy language.

Seeing Zhang Xiao and Perenal frowning, no wonder they had to bring a fairy armor. I originally thought that there was a rule in Gringotts that no one could open the box. It turned out to be a ritual blood bag!

The rock pillar shook, and the gravel kept peeling off and fell into the bottomless abyss, just like the old house of the Black family. In this violent vibration, a new door squeezed out from between seven and eight.

Then he pushed open the doors on both sides rudely, shook his "body" and slowly stood firm. Finally, an Arabic number 8 slowly appeared on the originally empty door.

As for the original vault No. 8, it could only be changed to No. 9, while the original No. 9 quickly shrank and disappeared.

"Ah, vault No. 9 went to the upper floor."

Facing the puzzled eyes of the two, Bogrod explained.

Bogrod walked to the door of vault No. 8 and put his hand on the huge metal door:

"Dear sir, the door of the vault is also a masterpiece of goblins. It has a certain ability to think. It will only be opened if the goblins are willing to open the door.

In addition, we also specially applied the Imperius Curse to this door for the notorious Imperius Curse test.

Once the goblins controlled by the Imperius Curse come to open the door, hehe——"

Bogrod sneered a few times: "Then the whole Gringotts will receive an invasion alarm!"

Zhang Xiao touched his nose, which was embarrassing. Fortunately, he didn't know the Imperius Curse.

The door of the vault was like being erased by an eraser, disappearing into the air bit by bit.

An empty vault appeared in front of them.

The vault is not big, probably only the size of a normal bedroom, but as a vault, it is indeed enough.

"This is your vault - Madam Perenelle, you can start, we will close the operation in front of you, from now on, every deposit and withdrawal will be carried out in front of your eyes."

Bogrod made a gesture of invitation.

The reasons used by Zhang Xiao and Perenelle were not brilliant, but they were very convincing.

The whole wizarding world knew that Dumbledore and Nicolas Flamel decided to destroy the Philosopher's Stone after consultation, which means that the evergreen tree of the wizarding world, the legendary couple who have survived for generations, Nicolas Flamel and his wife are about to die.

So Perenelle decided to deal with the huge wealth they left before she died.

This part of the wealth was divided into several parts, a small part was left to their good friends, and the remaining large amount of wealth was divided equally into two parts, one for their alma mater Beauxbatons. For centuries, Nicolas Flamel and his wife have been the largest donors to Beauxbatons.

Their statues stand in front of Beauxbatons' most famous magic fountain.

As Zhang Xiao and Perenelle told Bogrod, the other part was left to Hogwarts as a scholarship to reward outstanding young wizards at Hogwarts.

But this wealth will be given to Zhang for safekeeping.

This reason is impeccable. The whole wizarding world is rumored that Dumbledore's successor is Zhang, the young wizard from the East.

He is the legend of the next thousand years, succeeding Dumbledore as the headmaster of Hogwarts.

In other words, in the eyes of the goblins, Zhang Xiao is not only the heir of the East, but also the heir of the West.

When he is truly crowned, the most powerful forces in the East and the West will be in his hands, and he will be the king of the whole world!

This is the real reason why Bogrod is so humble. Zhang - is really capable of telling the goblins what "cutting down mountains and destroying temples, and killing the whole clan" means!

The vault was quiet. Goblin A took out a bottle of green sticky potion from somewhere and applied it on the wound, looking like a goblin.

Perenelle twisted the bracelet on her wrist and took out a pink lady's handbag.

Then she opened the handbag and saw a river of golden galleons pouring down from the bag, turning the entire vault into a golden color!

Bogrod looked at all this greedily, and Elf A even forgot about the pain on his arm, and only looked at the river formed by Galleons.

The shiny, golden Galleons bounced on the ground, rolled down, and covered the insteps in a moment.

But Perenal's women's handbags are like a cornucopia, and the Galleons flowing out are still unabated.

The "ding, ding, ding" sound of the gold coins colliding was like a violent storm, resounding throughout the treasury.

Soon, the two goblins were intoxicated by the collision of galleons, which was comparable to 'celestial music'.

Zhang Xiao watched this scene boredly. Not to mention, it was really pretty.

I don’t know how long it took, when the Galleons were about to reach their waists (the goblins could hardly breathe, but they were unwilling to break free from the feeling of being ‘buried alive’ by gold coins.)

The galleons in the lady's handbag were finally empty.

What is turning stone into gold? What is extremely rich?

That's it!

Don't think that gold is not precious in the wizarding world. Even if there is magic, a meal of gold ore can extract only a little bit of gold. No matter how unreasonable magic is, it cannot directly produce gold.

Except for the magic stone! Except for this kind of 'philosopher's stone' that can directly change the essence! ’

Perenal waved his wand, and Gallon levitated again, as if a pair of invisible hands quickly directed Gallon to fall together.

With the help of magic, a golden mountain was formed, and the fairies were rescued from being buried alive.

But looking at their expressions, they didn't seem satisfied. Instead, they were nostalgic for the feeling of being surrounded by wealth and unable to breathe.

This was not over yet. Perenal once again took out a small jewelry box. After opening it, a huge amount of jewelry and diamonds spurted out. This time it was no longer the sound of the collision of Galleons, but the brilliance of the jewels!

Zhang Xiao yawned. This scene did not appeal to him very much. If he lived for a lifetime, his behavior after seeing so many gold coins would scare goblins.

But in this lifetime?

It can only be said that Little Heavenly Master doesn’t care about money when making friends, and they don’t have as many as him anyway.

"Bogrod, how often do you come to check the treasury?"

Bogrod was extremely angry and wanted to angrily scold this bastard who dared to disturb his appreciation of wealth, but then he suddenly realized who was the person next to him. His eyebrows went from upturned to frowning, and his face was full of smiles, in just one second. clock time.

"Sir, we normally inspect it every 10 years, but for the vault here, we usually inspect it every five years."

Zhang Xiao became interested: "How to check? Can you open the door and go in to take a look?"

Bogrod shook his head: "If you open the door incorrectly, you will be sucked into the door, and if there are no customers around, we strictly prohibit employees from entering the vault.

So we usually choose to make the door transparent to observe the situation of the vault, including whether anyone is sucked inside the door. "

After saying this, Bogrorod paused: "Speaking of which, it's almost time for the inspection."

Zhang Xiao nodded, his heart suddenly moved, he pretended to be very interested, and asked curiously:

"Oh? Check the vault? Can I take a look? It seems interesting. Just check one room."

Bogrod raised his head in embarrassment, stared at Zhang Xiao, and said hesitantly:

"This is against the rules."

Oops, he is familiar with this sentence, isn’t it just not possible in principle?

Familiarly, he took out a small bag of Galleons and stuffed it directly into Bogrod's arms. Zhang Xiao beguiled the 'pure' fairy with a smile that was as close as a billionaire.

"I just want to gain some knowledge. Besides, how many coins do they have in their treasury? Can I really appreciate it?"

Bogrod suddenly remembered the East recorded by the goblin elders: There is gold everywhere here! It seems as if all the wealth in the world has been gathered underground here, including countless jewelry and exquisite utensils.

That makes sense!

After weighing the 'principle' in his hand, Bogrod put on a very enthusiastic smile on his face, bent down and rubbed his hands:

“Everything at Gringotts is based on user experience as the highest standard!

Dear Sir, which one do you want to see? "

Zhang Xiao closed his eyes and pointed a finger:

"That's it—"

Perenal used his peripheral vision to look in the direction Zhang Xiao was pointing. By coincidence, it happened to be Bella Strange's vault No. 4.

Isn't this a coincidence?
