The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

There are two gates in Gringotts.

On the second silver door inside is engraved a phrase that has appeared since the founding of Gringotts.

This phrase was specially written by the goblins in a language familiar to wizards to curse and warn those who have any evil thoughts about the wealth in Gringotts.

When Gringotts was first founded, the goblin war failed. The wizards who had been bullied by them regarded them as enemies. In addition, money was so attractive that countless wizards came to challenge this rule. phrase.

However, the history of magic clearly shows that they all failed.

The reason for this is simple.

Gringotts is part of the truce between wizards and goblins.

Challenging Gringotts is equivalent to challenging the Ministry of Magic!

To this day, people have forgotten the blood that was once stained on this phrase, and even just regard it as some ordinary patterns, not even interested in taking a look at it.

Nowadays, only those Muggle wizards who are new to the wizarding world show little interest in the phrases on the silver door of Gringotts.

But at this time, Link was staring at this phrase fiercely, and remained unmoved despite the strange looks from many people passing by around him.

Because he knew that no one seemed to care about the phrase on this silver door.

But that doesn't mean this phrase is useless.

In fact, on the contrary, this phrase has already been engraved in the heart of every wizard!

Along with the thought 'No one can steal even a Copper Knut from the Gringotts vault'!

There's nothing wrong with that in itself.

For a bank to have such high security conditions is something that every customer desires to see.

But the problem is that the owner of Gringotts is a goblin.

The predecessors who signed the armistice agreement with the goblins thousands of years ago may have thought that it was not a big deal because of the limitations of the times.

After all, the entire world at that time could be described as poor and in vain.

There is not even the most basic concept of finance, let alone making profits through it.

The seniors at the time might even think that Gringotts was an existence that simply served wizards, and that goblins, like house elves, were slaves working for wizards.

But looking at it now, any adult Muggle who has gone through the nine-year compulsory education can clearly see the huge mistake made here.

How can the financial power of a country, or even a race, be placed in the hands of a foreign race?

This is something Link simply can't stand!

The reason why he chose to invade Gringotts to seize the Horcrux Gold Cup was not only forced by the situation, but also had the idea of ​​changing everything.

He wants to smash that phrase that is engraved in every wizard's heart!

"call--"

Taking a deep breath, Link gave Emily an affirmative look, and the two held hands and entered the hall.

The marble hall of Gringotts is almost as tall and spacious as the Ministry of Magic.

At the same time, they have another thing in common, that is, they are crowded with people almost all the time.

There seem to be more people here than the Ministry of Magic today.

After all, tonight is Christmas Eve, and everyone needs to withdraw some Galleons for purchases.

Countless people crowded into the hall.

At the same time, there were countless people leaving with gold galleons in their arms and extremely vigilant.

On both sides of the crowd, there is a long series of counters. There are about a hundred goblins sitting on high stools behind the counter, weighing coins with copper scales, inspecting gems with eyepieces, or keeping accounts and receiving guests.

There are countless doors scattered further down the hall.

Many goblins are guiding the reserved guests to their respective underground vaults.

A smile slowly appeared on Link and Emily's faces.

Because those so-called reservation guests are actually hunters and old saints pretending to be guests.

As early as when Link arrived in Diagon Alley, these people had already used Apparition to appear in every corner of Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley, and entered the Gringotts underground in batches.

When Link also arrives at the predetermined location and sends a signal, these people will simultaneously kill the goblins who lead the way.

Of course, the hunters and old saints are not all in place yet, and Link also needs to pick up the other two action members.

Link and Emily smiled at each other, turned around and walked towards a mahogany door on the side.

"Are they Mr. Norton and Miss Irene?"

Before Link and Emily could get closer, an elf guard wearing a scarlet uniform came up to the wooden door and said.

Link and Emily nodded and handed over a permission slip engraved with Gringotts' private reception room.

The goblin guard checked it carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he immediately smiled with great attentiveness.

"The two gentlemen inside have been waiting for a long time. I wish you a pleasant morning."

As he spoke, the goblin helped Link and Emily open the wooden door.

The most important thing is that he has a very high level of professionalism and never even glanced into the living room from beginning to end.

Link nodded with satisfaction, popped out a Gold Galleon, and quickly walked into the room, ignoring the happy elf.

Snapped--

The door was carefully closed by the goblin.

In the living room, Newland and Si Gefen, who had also been transformed using Polyjuice Potion, had also stood up from the sofa and saluted Link and Emily.

"All sit down."

Link greeted with a smile, while he and Emily sat on the main seats specially reserved for them, "In about half an hour, you two will follow us into the underground vault, and the official start will begin. Today’s task. But before that, everyone can just relax a little.”

As soon as he said this, Newland sat down happily, but compared with before, his sitting posture was particularly respectful, and he almost didn't dare to sit down.

But Si Gefen didn't even sit down at all, and his brows furrowed tightly.

Seeing his appearance, Link raised his eyes slightly and said expressionlessly:

"What's the matter, Skeffen?"

Si Gefen's expression gradually became firm, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Sir Link Foley, although I don't know exactly what you want to do, but at this point, I can generally make a guess. I...I don't think that is good! Gringotts vs. It’s really important to the entire wizarding world! We can’t do that just because of our own selfish interests, this… this goes against my beliefs!”

Having said this, Skeffen paused, clenched his fists and said, "What I want to join is a righteous man who is dedicated to eradicating Voldemort and Death Eaters, not a terrorist organization or a group of thieves!

You don’t need to persuade me that our current behavior is to better realize our ideals.

A great man once said that means represent the justice that is being formed and the ideal that is being realized. People cannot achieve just goals through unjust means, because the means are seeds and the ends are trees.

If you insist on doing that, then please allow me to quit the DA army! "

After saying that, Si Gefen placed the special DA gold coin on the coffee table.

Newland's eyelids twitched when he saw this scene, and Emily and Link on the main seats also looked unkind.

Newland lowered his head a little, but kept glancing at Si Gefen from the corner of his eye.

He had been dealing with Si Gefen for more than a day or two.

Although Si Gefen behaved so righteously and awe-inspiring on weekdays, to be honest, Newland never thought that Si Gefen would be such a good person with pure belief in justice.

After all, a purely good person would not be so dirty when fighting.

But if this is really the case, then why did Si Gefen say such things to Link today?

It is impossible for him not to know how powerful the current DA army, or to be precise, is controlled by Link Foley.

If you still want to escape unscathed when you clearly know the secrets of the DA army, that is completely wishful thinking!

For a moment, Newland actually felt that he couldn't see through Si Gefen.

After a brief silence, Link finally spoke to Si Gefen:

"Let's take a look first. If you still insist on quitting after today, then... we will discuss it then."

As soon as these words came out, Si Gefen's body visibly stiffened.

This was not only because of the murderous intent hidden in Link's words, but also because the basilisk named Arkham had already emerged from Link's sleeves and was currently leaning on his body, looking at him with the eyes of a prey.

"I...I understand."

Si Gefen said and sat back in his seat.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized that his back was soaked in cold sweat.

Of course he also knew how dangerous he was just now.

It's just that he doesn't regret it.

Faith is the source of his strength, and he cannot abandon it just because of temporary interests!

What he didn't know was that his thoughts at the moment had been completely penetrated by Link, who possessed the Legilimency Spell.

This made Link feel a little disappointed in Si Gefen.

He originally thought that Si Gefen had higher potential than Newland, or at least it was easier to control.

But it seems very childish at the moment.

His famous quote about Martin Luther King certainly made sense.

But don’t forget, Martin Luther King was a lawyer before!

That famous quote may be very appropriate when applied to laws and procedural justice, but it is not advisable to apply it mechanically!

If anything, what Link and the others are doing now is not just.

Thinking like this, Link closed his eyes. Perhaps Arkham also felt the irritability and disappointment in his heart. It slowly climbed down from Link's body and came to Si Gefen. Its eyes were always locked on Si Gefen. On Fen's body.

At this distance, it only takes 1 second to fly over and bite the opponent's neck.

Then, its poison, which is enough to kill the Horcrux, will kill the opponent instantly!

Such behavior made the atmosphere in the entire living room become a bit chilly.

But at this moment, Newland coughed lightly.

Arkham turned his head instantly.

Link, who was resting with his eyes closed, also opened his eyes and stared at Newland.

Newland couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

For a moment, he was even surprised to find that Link's eyes were somewhat similar to Arkham's.

But when things came to an end, it was too late to back down. He took a deep breath, stood up and said:

"Your Excellency Link Foley, I have been paying attention to the movements of Harry Potter and others during my stay in school, and just two days ago, there were some changes on their side."

Link didn't speak, but nodded to indicate to the other party to continue.

At the same time, Arkham had climbed to Newland's feet and was leaning on him, as if he was thinking about whether to climb up.

Newland turned a blind eye to this and continued:

"Professor Hagrid is back, and he's covered in injuries. Not only that, he also... brought back a giant and raised it in the Forbidden Forest."

Hearing this, not only Link and Emily, but also Si Gefen also looked up at Newland.

Skeffen also had contact with giants.

Therefore, he is quite aware of the terrifying power the giant possesses.

If a giant is really brought into the Forbidden Forest, not only will the ecological balance of the Forbidden Forest be devastated, but even Hogwarts will be threatened!

"What exactly is going on!?"

Si Gefen asked with red eyes.

However, Newland ignored him at all and just looked at Link inquiringly.

In his opinion, there is a high probability that Si Gefen will part ways with them after today. How could Si Gefen know such important information.

It wasn't until he got Link's approval that Newland slowly told everything he had discovered.

It even included the fact that Umbridge brought someone to Hagrid's door as soon as he came back, and the communication between the two was not pleasant.

After saying everything, Si Gefen sat back in his seat.

Newland, on the other hand, bowed his head obediently.

Arkham had now crawled back onto Link, much to his relief.

At the same time, he still had some expectations in his heart.

It is naturally impossible for him to defect to Umbridge, but he does not mind getting more authority from Umbridge, which will be very beneficial to him.

Although he didn't say anything explicitly about the work report this time, it was also a bit of a test.

If Link really agreed to what he did with Hagrid and the giants, then things would become simpler...

Time passed bit by bit, but Link still didn't speak.

Until Newlan's heart was about to get anxious waiting, he saw Emily suddenly holding Link's hand and saying:

"Link, it's almost time."

"Really?" Link said as if he had just woken up from a short nap, "Then let's start today's actions first."

As he said that, he looked at Newland and said, "You did a good job. As for the rest, we'll talk about it later."

After that, Link and Emily walked towards the door without looking back.

Newland and Si Gefen couldn't care about anything else at the moment and quickly got up and followed.

……

at the same time,

In the Gringotts lobby.

Little Barty, covered in a black robe, was standing in front of the counter with a face full of grief and anger.

The counters in Gringotts are set very high, and wizards who come to handle business have to look up at the goblins hiding behind the counters.

It is hard to say that this is not the evil taste of goblins.

After all, it's usually the fairies who look up to wizards.

But that's not why Barty Jr. is so angry.

As a child who grew up in a wizarding family, the phrases on the silver door of Gringotts and the manner of Gringotts had long been engraved in the depths of his mind, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

What really made him angry was...
