Chapter 352 Infiltrating the Dark Spirit Pavilion

On the street outside the Wizards Union of Dark Spirit Pavilion, the dim street lamps were quietly casting light, and occasionally they would flicker slightly, leaving a momentary afterimage in the eyes of passers-by.

Most of the wizards who chose to change their appearance came and went in a hurry on this street, rushing about for their own affairs.

It is worth mentioning that most of those wizards would directly step into the gate of the Dark Spirit Pavilion.

Every day in the black market is like this, where there is a high flow of people, there will be no shortage of people day and night; and in those inaccessible areas, sitting there all day may not be able to wait for someone to breathe.

As one of the places with the highest concentration of people in the black market, the Dark Spirit Pavilion seemed to be very busy even in the afternoon when it was the least crowded.

Of course, the black market is already underground, so the difference between day and night is not as big as imagined.

And at this moment, among the crowds outside the gate of the Dark Spirit Pavilion, there was a wizard in a hooded cloak. This attire may be conspicuous on the ground, but in the black market, it is an ordinary attire.

The unsurprising wizard passed by the door of the Dark Spirit Pavilion naturally, glanced inside seemingly casually, but maintained a steady and relaxed pace on his feet, quietly passing by like a normal person.

After that, he continued to walk for a certain distance, and the wizard turned around slightly, and turned into a certain path beside the road.

"Dedalus is already in place."

Beside a certain wooden shelf in that alleyway, the wizard said a word without looking back.

"Well, Tonks... after making sure no one is following you, you can go and notify Lupine's group."

A weak and sharp voice suddenly sounded behind the wooden shelf, and then there was no more sound.

From the beginning to the end, Tonks in disguise didn't stop. She walked quite easily and naturally, without any incongruous behavior.

If this had been an Auror test of stealth in disguise, it would have gotten a good rating.

After Tonks gradually walked away and finally disappeared at the end of the path, there was still more than ten minutes of silence here.

Then, the wooden frame moved away silently, and a dwarf who was not much taller than a house-elf walked out gently while maintaining his invisibility.

"Time is money, my friend."

He muttered a little nostalgicly, then took a step forward, switching his short legs, and walked in the direction Tonks had come from.

Goblins are highly intelligent creatures, and although wizards always like to put them in the category of magical animals, that's just an arrogant prejudice.

Not only are they as intelligent as humans, but they also have their own language. Even in terms of magic, their unique magic system can be cast without a wand at all, and its power is no different from that of a wizard.

And precisely because of this, it is easier for them to form a coexistence relationship with wizards. Although goblin rebellions in history have always happened time and time again, but none of them have been injured.

Some conflicts occurred while preserving the roots of the race in an attempt to gain more space for interests-this is almost the same as the relationship between countries among Muggles.

For this infiltration plan, borrowing the image of a goblin will obviously increase convenience to a certain extent, but the premise is that the members who become goblins must be able to speak goblin language.

Of course, although Maca knew the pronunciation of a few words in Fairy Language, it was still impossible to communicate with them. Fortunately, this point has long been considered by the Order of the Phoenix meeting.

The five people who transformed into fairies this time are just an emergency measure for cover. Except for Maca, who will inevitably sneak into the underground, the other four "fairies" will not rashly participate in the action until the critical moment .

As for Maca, the reason why he became a goblin was nothing more than an insurance policy for his appearance.

There are many people in the Dark Spirit Pavilion, and he is not sure whether his whereabouts will be exposed due to some inconspicuous accidents. If the invisibility status on the body suddenly fails,

At least he can get a certain buffer, right?

Soon, Maca, who was invisible, followed the heels of the five wizards, passed the two black metal gates without hindrance, and entered the marble-paved hall of the Dark Spirit Pavilion.

Business here was as hectic as ever, and the buzzing whispers of wizards mixed with the characteristic shrill voices of goblins to create a raucous scene.

There was a long counter on each side of the hall, and the little goblins sat on stools taller than themselves, so that they could look down on the wizard and gain more pride.

This is a trick of the goblins, and it is also their common problem. This alone is the same whether it is in Gringotts in Diagon Alley or here.

Among the mixed crowd, Maca forgot to glance left and right, and soon found Hestia Jones who was disguised as a traveling wizard.

That was also a member of the Order of the Phoenix, and like Tonks, a female Auror. It's just that compared to Tonks, the gentle and low-key Heska has more proficient Auror skills.

When Maca saw her, she was queuing at the innermost counter!

Maca dodged flexibly in the crowd, sneaked up to Heska's side lightly, then stretched out her finger and tapped her arm three times.

Heska, who has been an Auror for several years, always maintains a sense of vigilance. When Maca touched her arm, she subconsciously tensed up.

Immediately, Maca saw Heska's eyes blinking continuously.

The entrance to the underground passage must be in the area where only the staff are active, that is, behind the counter.

The counter of the Dark Spirit Pavilion is fully enclosed. Although there seems to be nothing above the counter, a series of protective magic is enough to block the attacks of most intruders.

And the special passages that are usually only used for personnel to enter and exit will obviously be equipped with more spells.

Therefore, Maca simply chose the business window on the counter as the breakthrough point of this operation.

"...Take 100 gold Galleons and divide them into two bags."

"Okay, sir."

The conversation between the wizard who was handling business and the old goblin behind the counter rang from above Maca's head. The old goblin flipped through a thick booklet with wrinkled fingers, signed his name, stamped and stamped it, then tore it off, and handed it to another younger goblin behind him.

"Just a moment, sir," said the old goblin sharply.

Unlike Gringotts, Dark Souls will not allow customers to enter the underground vault together. Small items and a small amount of currency will be processed at the counter window, while large items and large quantities of currency deposits and withdrawals will be arranged in separate private rooms for entertainment.

If necessary, the Dark Spirit Pavilion will even be responsible for delivering the valuables directly to a specific place - of course, it must be paid.

Doing so will indeed make the business more efficient, which is beneficial to both customers and the Dark Spirit Pavilion. But this also means that the tellers on the counter will not leave their positions casually.

As long as the teller stays behind the window, the difficulty of intrusion will increase sharply - Maca can clearly "see" that the reserved windows on the several layers of transparent protective barriers are very small.

five minutes...ten minutes...fifteen minutes...

Maca stood under the counter, calmly watching the line move forward, and it was almost Heska's turn.

Although a plan has been arranged tentatively, the plan may not be able to catch up with the changes. If Heska does not succeed here, Maca must move to the next place as soon as possible.

He looked at Heska, and then stood on tiptoe to glance at the other lines.

"Ma'am, what do you need?" The sharp voice of the old goblin behind the counter remained unchanged, and seemed a little lifeless in this boring repetitive homework.

"I want to get a small safe to store some things." Heska raised her head slightly and said, looking at the old goblin.

"The smallest safe is 18 cubic feet and the rental fee is . . . "

In the mechanical introduction of the old goblin, Heska carefully took out the wand and shook it gently. The next moment, on the high counter, a stack of papers fell quietly and was about to slip behind the counter.

However, the old goblin moved his wrinkled hands quickly, and the pieces of paper gathered up automatically and landed firmly on the counter.

When he finished this action, he didn't even stop speaking, and the introduction was as dull as before.

When Heska saw it, although she felt a little annoyed, she didn't show any flaws on the surface. After finishing the silent levitation spell just now, she quickly hid the wand back inside the robe.

"Just choose the smallest model." She said calmly.

"Yes, ma'am."

The old goblin replied casually, and then stretched out his hand to pull a thicker booklet. With a skillful wave of his hand, the booklet immediately turned the pages.

After he filled out a form in the booklet, he took out the page and handed it to Hestia along with a quill.

"After carefully confirming that the contract document is correct, please sign your name on the horizontal line below."

Hearing this, Hessia just glanced at it briefly, then smoothed out the document on the protruding platform under the counter, and signed an unfamiliar name casually.

"Okay, then... please give me the items that need to be stored and the rental fee, and I will arrange special personnel to carry out an inventory inspection."

After receiving the document that Heska handed back to him, the old goblin pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose for a closer look, and then put the page of the document back into the booklet.

Hearing this, Hessia immediately put a small package in her hand by the window, then took out another stack of silver coins and put them beside the package.

But when she withdrew her hand, she flicked her little finger covertly, and the two silver coins rolled quickly into the counter.

Maca under the counter was always paying attention to Heska's movements. When he saw the two silver coins rolling up, his hand moved suddenly, and the two silver coins immediately collided with each other, and then rolled to different directions.
