Chapter 230 Harry: Did you really hear nothing? (2-in-1)

"How's it going? How's it going? Have you found out the whereabouts of the Horcrux?" When Gemini, who was waiting in the distance, saw Taurus and Pisces walking towards him, he immediately moved forward impatiently, hoping to get the result from them.

"The question is out, let's go." Taurus was in a good mood after completing the task, and was going to take his friends to Gringotts in London to take out Bellatrix's Voldemort Horcrux hidden in his vault.

"So where did she hide the Horcrux?"

Taurus, Pisces, Aries:…

Realizing that he had asked a very stupid question, Gemini consciously closed his mouth and silently walked behind Taurus.

After carefully observing Gemini for a moment and confirming that he did not want to kill him, Taurus announced his departure.

The boat sailed away from Azkaban, and no one except the dementors on the island knew they had been here.

Soon, the four monks of the Secret Order arrived in Diagon Alley, London.

Diagon Alley, which was extremely busy during the day, was now deserted, with only some Christmas decorations floating in the cold wind.

The four Taurus people had a clear goal and headed straight for Gringotts, which is located in the heart of Diagon Alley.

Compared to the daytime, Gringotts' apparent defenses were much laxer at night. The four of them rushed up the deserted white stone steps and arrived at the closed bronze door.

Aries took the lead, pulling out his wand and pressing it against the door. After a few seconds, she shook her head, but judging from her expression, she was not surprised: it was strange that the door here was not cast with an anti-lock spell.

But it's not a big problem. Anyway, they just need to achieve the result of "passing through here".

She drew a circle on the door with her wand, and the next second, there was a hole in the door big enough for a person to step through. Through the hole, you can see the silver door behind the bronze door.

"Bronze door, silver door, is there a golden door behind it?" Gemini muttered, making the three companions laugh.

"Impossible, how can goblins have such luxury." Aries took a look at the specifications of the gate, and then quickly calculated its approximate volume. If it were to be made of pure gold, hundreds of tons of gold would probably be used.

The four of them crossed the first gate as they spoke, and then passed through the second gate in the same way.

"The goblins did not use pure silver to make their doors." When passing through the silver door, Gemini noticed a detail: the material used in the middle of this door is the same as the first door, and only the outer few inches are silver.

"It fits my stereotype of goblins." Pisces, who has always been taciturn, couldn't help complaining: "Did you know that gold galleons are not made of pure gold, but are mixed with other metals."

"The value of one gram of gold made into gold coins is higher than that of one gram of gold. This is the secret to making money by minting coins."

While complaining about the greed of goblins, several people invaded Gringotts.

As a bank, Gringotts was also on duty at night. Aries, who was walking at the front, was discovered by the goblin security guard who stayed here as soon as he entered the bank lobby.

"Who -" He stood up from his seat suddenly and knocked over the coffee pot in his hand.

But before his hand could touch the alarm button under the table, his head exploded like a smashed watermelon.

"The security of the famous Gringotts is only so good, but they actually chose to use the alarm bell to trigger the alarm. It's really outrageous." Aries frowned, "I thought the alarm should be triggered when we destroyed the gate."

"They've been lax for too long."

"Someone also successfully invaded Gringotts last year."

"This is a good thing for us." Taurus avoided the blood on the ground, walked to the center of the hall, and then faced the countless doors in the hall and started to worry: Which door leads to the Lestrange vault?

He struggled for two seconds and then gave up thinking. He randomly chose the door closest to them and pushed it. As his hand touched the door, the alarm sounded.

"Only fairies should be able to touch the door here." Taurus showed a smile on his face, as if he had solved a math problem.

A few seconds later, there was a burst of noisy footsteps outside the hall. Several doors were pushed open immediately, but the monks of the Secret Order were already prepared to fire spells at any door that made a sound.

"Remember to leave a few alive!"

Seeing that his companions were ruthless and deadly, Taurus couldn't sit still. He quickly told the other three people not to forget the purpose of this trip. At the same time, he also personally selected an old goblin with gray hair who just rushed out from behind the door.

He met the goblin's eyes, and the goblin's eyes became dazed. Then he picked up the long sword in his hand and chopped off the head of a younger goblin who was following him with his backhand.

Taurus showed a satisfied smile, pointed at the counter, and signaled the old goblin to hide first.

The older goblin obediently held the blood-stained sword and shrank under the counter.

Calculations were done mentally and unintentionally, and the four of them were all elites within the Secret Order. The goblins on duty who were alerted by the alarm were quickly swept away by them, and the marble floor of the entire hall was stained red with the blood of goblins.

Several trembling goblins were driven to the counter.

With a gentle smile on his face, Taurus told the goblins that he wanted to go to the Lestrange family's underground vault.

The goblins shrank and their bodies trembled even more, but none of them spoke.

Taurus's patience was gradually exhausted. He picked up a long sword from the ground, then picked up the goblin on the far left and asked him if he could take him to the Lestrange vault.

The goblin closed his eyes.

Taurus chopped off his head with his backhand, threw it aside, and then picked up the second goblin.

"Take me to the Lestrange family's underground vault."

This time the captured goblin surrendered, but he said that he did not have the authority to open the vault.

"What about him?" Taurus pulled out the older goblin who had been hiding before.

"have."

"Very good." Taurus finally showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Four monks from the Secret Order walked into the underground vault with two goblins, one big and one small. The remaining prisoners were easily disposed of by Aries.

Seeing the neat killings of several wizards beside him, the young goblin's face turned pale. He first summoned a small cart with a whistle, and then carefully said that the space on the cart might not be enough for four wizards and two goblins.

"He needs to open the vault..." As soon as he said the words, the young goblin was afraid that the wizards would think he was useless, so he quickly added: "I have to control the cart!"

Taurus understood the goblin's little thoughts. As usual, he asked Gemini and Aries to stay behind, while he and Pisces entered the depths of the vault.

Before getting Voldemort's Horcrux, he would not do anything to the goblin who led the way, because he could not guarantee that the older goblin would cooperate with him. It would be terrible if he killed the leading party in front of him and then refused to cooperate after releasing the control of the old goblin.

Under the control of the young goblin, the cart started and became faster and faster. Amidst the huge roar, they galloped along the maze-like winding corridors. The paths were so complicated that the human brain could not remember them at all.

The two demons walked all the way down. The long journey gave Taurus the illusion that they were heading towards the center of the earth.

Suddenly, after turning a corner, a waterfall appeared on the track ahead.

"Anti-thief Waterfall!" The guide fairy only had time to shout its name before the cart rushed into the waterfall.

Ice-cold water fell from the sky, turning Taurus and the passengers in the car into drowned rats. The water poured into Taurus's eyes and mouth, making him unable to open his eyes and blocking his breathing.

To make matters worse, under the influence of the anti-thief waterfall, the cart slipped and overturned, and Taurus, Pisces and the two goblins were thrown out of the cart.

The high-speed trolley came off the track and fell to pieces on the wall of the corridor. Taurus closed his eyes and cast a shock-absorbing spell on everyone based on his feelings, and then they fell to the stone ground like feathers. on, no one was injured.

The young goblin quickly got up from the ground and introduced the anti-thief waterfall to Taurus as if atonement.

"That waterfall will wash away all the magic spells and magical disguises. When the alarm sounded just now, someone activated the defense device."

"Oh?" Hearing that the spell would be washed away, Taurus immediately looked at the old goblin under his control. Sure enough, at this time the old goblin was standing up unsteadily, his eyes full of confusion.

Taurus immediately added a piece of control magic to control him again. After doing this, he also used magic spells to dry everyone's wet clothes.

Then his eyes fell on the young goblin.

The cart has been reduced to pieces, and I don’t know where it fell. I’m afraid I’ll have to walk the rest of the way. I wonder if the goblin in front of me knows the way?

The news that Gringotts had been broken into had probably been passed on. Reinforcements from the bank would arrive at any time, and he had to fight quickly.

"It's okay. This place is close to the underground. We can walk there. It's not far from the end." The young goblin took the initiative to lead the way, leading the two of them deeper.

When he turned a corner, the face of the leading goblin suddenly changed: outside the deepest vaults of Gringotts, there was a huge fire dragon tied to the ground. The dragon's eyes were a cloudy pink, and the scales on its body had become pale and loose. Its condition was visibly poor, and it was obvious that the goblins in Gringotts would not take good care of the fire dragon like Hagrid did.

But even in this state, the dragon still made the fairies and humans standing in front of it feel suffocated: if its spiked wings spread out, it would fill the entire basement; if it roared, the entire cave would be filled with it. Trembling; if it chooses to breathe fire, any creature in the passage will be reduced to charcoal.

"It's over, it's over, we didn't bring the jingle bells..." The young goblin's face turned pale. He didn't know whether he was afraid of being buried in the dragon's kiss or because he was afraid that the wizards would punish him for his negligence.

Although he didn't know what the jingle piece was, Taurus could probably guess that it was a prop to make the dragon obedient.

"Leave it to me, I'm an expert at regulating emotions." He pushed the frightened goblin behind him, and then took out a crystal ball filled with emotions. As he spoke, a wisp of smoke drifted toward the dragon's nose, but this time Taurus chose a "calm" and "peaceful" mood.

He didn't dare to let a half-mad fire dragon become "happy" in a confined space. God knew what would happen.

After inhaling the emotions prepared by Taurus, the Fire Dragon gradually calmed down. It lay on the ground and fell into sleep, with only the occasional stream of smoke with sparks coming out of its nostrils.

"Let's go." Under Taurus's command, they rushed to the Lestrange family's vault, and after putting the old goblin's hand on the vault door, the old-looking wooden door disappeared. , revealing a hole. The cave was stuffed from floor to ceiling with gold coins and gold and silver wine vessels, precious metal armor inlaid with gems, fur skeletons of various exotic animals, and magic potions sealed in jars.

"As expected of Lestrange!" Taurus and Pisces sighed together.

"Many treasures have fire spells and copying spells added to them. Anything you touch will copy itself and become hot. The copies also have fire spells and copying spells." The young goblin reminded the two of them.

Taurus glanced at him and grinned: "Thank you!"

He and Aries began to search for Voldemort's Horcrux according to the description Bella left them. Eventually, Taurus found a gold cup matching the description on the top of a shelf near the ceiling.

Taurus directly let Pisces climb onto his back, and then used the long sword in the old goblin's hand to pick the cup into his hand.

"So how are we going to go back? Walk up the track? This damn place must have an anti-Apparition spell." After getting the gold cup, Pisces had a question: How are they going to go back?

"It's very simple, isn't it?" Taurus's eyes fell on the fire dragon not far away.

After casually dealing with the two goblins around him, Taurus cut off the chains on the fire dragon's hind legs, and then awakened the sleeping fire dragon.

Amidst the shocking roar of the fire dragon, the two of them rode on the dragon's back and flew towards the ground - even the dragon's roar could not cover Taurus's proud laughter.

They succeeded, and the Dark Lord's return was a foregone conclusion!

Hogwarts, Dumbledore, we'll visit! Taurus clenched the golden cup in his hand and swore secretly.

…

When the members of the Secret Order drove the fire dragon to cause havoc in Gringotts, the Christmas dinner at Greengrass Manor also reached the climax of the atmosphere. One piece of music was played one after another, and dozens of long tables were piled full with a dazzling array of food.

Guests are free to choose to dance on the dance floor or feast at the dining table. There are also many guests who are not interested in food and dance, but take this opportunity to find the person they like and chat.

Les belongs to the dry rice party. He selected a few of his favorite things from the dazzling array of delicacies from the mountains and seas, then hid in a corner of the banquet hall and concentrated on enjoying the food.

He noticed that the Minister of Magic Fudge was having a lively conversation with Mr. Henry at the moment. Lucius Malfoy was standing next to them holding a glass of champagne and seemed to be trying to find a topic to interject into the conversation.

Daphne and Astoria were surrounded by several gorgeously dressed witches, including Narcissa Malfoy. It could be seen that the smile on Daphne's face had become a little stiff.

"I should have covered my scar." A slightly tired voice sounded in Les's ear. He turned around and saw Harry sitting next to him with a plate of roast beef.

"The Boy Who Lived." Les teased Harry in a joking tone.

A wry smile appeared on Harry's face, he shook his head helplessly, and enjoyed the delicacies provided by the Greengrass family with Les.

When both of them were getting better, Harry suddenly asked Les: "Les, did you really hear nothing that night?"
