Save the Bachelor of Heaven

 Chapter 4155 4157 [The treasury of the ancient family]

After Xiang Nan entered the underground pit of Gringotts, he saw that there were maze-like twists and turns in the pit. Only goblins could know exactly which vault they led to.

Fortunately, Xiang Nan knew that the Lestrange family's vault was the oldest and highest-secret vault, located at the bottom of the pit and guarded by a giant dragon.

Fortunately, the protective magic in the pit is much weaker than the protective magic on the upper level.

Just like a bank, the most heavily guarded area is the vault door. Once you enter the vault, the defense becomes less stringent.

So Xiang Nan flew with his sword, all the way down.

When you encounter a protected area, use the ground escape technique to get around it.

For example, there is an anti-thief waterfall in the underground caverns of Gringotts, which can wash away all magic spells and all magical disguises.

If a wizard uses Transfiguration, Illusion Curse, Polyjuice Potion, Imperius Curse, Invisibility Curse, etc. to deceive Gringotts staff, break into the Gringotts vault, and encounter the anti-thief waterfall, his original shape will be revealed and the protection system will be triggered. alarm.

And the staff will regain consciousness. At that point, the goblin guards will arrive in time to arrest anyone who dares break into Gringotts.

This thief-proof waterfall is on the only way to the highest-level treasury, and there is no way to avoid it. Anyone else would definitely have no chance. They would have to either force their way in or leave.

But Xiang Nan was able to use the Earth Escape Technique to get around it and avoid this link perfectly.

…

Fifteen minutes later, Xiang Nan arrived at the bottom of the pit and saw a huge iron-belly dragon guarding the vault.

After Xiang Nan saw it, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Because this was the first time he saw a living dragon. He had only seen dragons in books and pictures before.

Standing in front of the dragon at this moment, he felt sincerely shocked.

This giant dragon is five meters tall and twenty meters long. Its huge spiked wings are folded on both sides of its body. If unfolded, it would fill the entire basement.

Even elephants become tiny compared to it.

Perhaps due to being confined underground for too long, the scales on the dragon's body have become pale and loose. Its eyes are cloudy pink, and its two hind legs are wearing heavy shackles. The thick chains on them are connected to deep beatings. A huge pile driven into the stone ground.

Behind it, there are five passages leading to five vaults.

The lowest level of the pit is Gringotts' most defensive vault. To get here, you need to pass through the anti-thief waterfall and be guarded by a giant dragon.

Those giant dragons are quite terrifying and ordinary wizards cannot defeat them.

Victor Krum, Fleur Delacour, and Cedric Diggory who participated in the Triwizard Tournament can be considered the best elites from each school.

Even they are in great danger when facing giant dragons, let alone ordinary wizards.

Even if someone as powerful as Voldemort or Dumbledore could defeat the dragon, it would still be impossible to kill it in an instant. When the time comes, the dragon's roar will trigger an alarm, which will also attract goblin guards.

Moreover, each vault door is also protected by heavy protective magic. These magics are very ancient and very powerful, and even the most powerful wizards may not be able to break them.

Therefore, Gringotts is very confident about this and believes that it is impossible for anyone to break in. Even if you break in, you can't get past the dragon's guard. Even through the dragon's protection, it is impossible to enter the vault.

Unfortunately, they happened to meet Xiang Nan.

Xiang Nan then began to search for the Lestrange family's treasury.

However, he didn't know which one it was. Fortunately, there were only five vaults at the bottom, all belonging to the oldest families in the wizarding world, so it was not difficult to check each one.

…

Xiang Nan used the earth escape technique to bypass the dragon and advance to the first vault.

Although there are many protective spells on the vault door, which can only be opened by the goblin's touch, Xiang Nan still skillfully bypassed them by using the escape technique. Entering the vault, it was pitch black. Xiang Nan took out his magic wand and cast "Fluorescent Flash", then he was stunned.

The vault was filled with mountains of gold coins, gold bars, silver coins, jewelry, silk, gold and silverware, medieval-style armor, swords, precious animal skins, magic potions, and some weird magic props.

For example, a necklace exuding black mist, a bow shining with faint silver light, a celestial model that moves on its own...

This is the oldest family in the wizarding world, with wealth accumulated over thousands of years.

Xiang Nan carefully checked it, and then exited the vault slightly disappointed.

Although this treasury is very rich, money is the least important thing to Xiang Nan.

He only needs to move his fingers and within half a year, he can earn the wealth accumulated by these aristocratic families for thousands of years.

In comparison, if it is a rare magic prop or a long-lost magic book, it is still somewhat valuable.

But unfortunately, this vault does not.

And by checking the vault, he also discovered that the vault belonged to the Selwyn family.

Because he found the emblems of the Selwyn family on many magic props.

The Selwyn family is one of the twenty-eight sacred families and has a history of more than a thousand years.

Dolores Umbridge lied about being a descendant of the Selwyn family after getting Slytherin's locket with the letter "S" on it.

Some descendants of their family joined the Death Eaters.

…

Xiang Nan then went to two treasuries.

These two vaults are similar and contain a lot of gold and silver treasures, but they are not the Lestrange family's vaults.

One of them is the treasury of the Black family, and their family is really wealthy.

Xiang Nan took a quick look and found that there were at least 300,000 gold galleons in it. Not counting the large amounts of silver coins, gold and silverware, jewelry, jewelry, magic props, etc.

The other one belongs to the Malfoy family. Compared to the wealth of the Black family, the Malfoy family has more wealth.

It's no wonder that the Black family is prosperous. Not counting Sirius's generation, his father's generation had three sons, and his grandfather's generation had four sons...

Each son was given a piece of property, and naturally the more he divided, the smaller it became.

In comparison, the Malfoy family has always been small in number, and has been passed down from a single line for several generations, so its wealth has been preserved to the greatest extent.

In addition, the Malfoy family has a good way of making money, so they have accumulated a lot of wealth, conservatively estimated to be over one million galleons.

When they came to the fourth vault, Xiang Nan confirmed that this was the Lestrange family's vault.

Because many of the magic props in the vault have the emblems of the Lestrange family.

However, Xiang Nan did not see Hufflepuff's gold cup in the vault.

He guessed that Voldemort had not given the gold cup to Bellatrix for safekeeping.

After finding the Lestrange family's vault, Xiang Nan did not leave immediately, but took a look at the fifth vault.

After entering, Xiang Nan was shocked.

Because this vault is much larger than the four vaults I have seen before, it is almost as big as four football fields.

It was filled with countless gold coins, countless jewelry, countless armors and weapons made by fairies, and countless books...
