Chapter 560 Returning with a Full Load
The dragon's roar echoed through the stone walls, amplified many times, so powerful that it seemed like people's brains were vibrating. The sound of sharp claws scraping against the ground was even more harsh and disturbing.
Compared with the huge dragon, Ada looked so small, but there was no fear on her face, she was very confident in herself. No matter how scary the dragon is, can it be as scary as Dumbledore?
Ada pointed her wand upward, and the fluorescent spell like a flare cut through the darkness, and the underground space instantly became bright as day. It happened that the dragon turned its head to face Ada, so that she could clearly see the terrible scars on the fire dragon's face.
I think those are the scars left by the person who tamed the dragon. It is the pain that penetrates the bones that can make the dragon feel afraid and make this powerful creature humble. It will feel pain whenever it hears the sound of the jingle.
With the illumination of the fluorescent spell, the wand moved like an arm, and the eye disease spell pierced the dragon's pink eyes like an arrow.
The scales all over the body make the fire dragon extremely resistant to magic. Many magics cannot harm the fire dragon. The eyes are the most vulnerable part of the fire dragon's body.
The severe pain caused by the eye disease curse made the fire dragon very painful. Its roar became hoarse, the giant spiked wings on both sides of its body tightened, and its ugly head shook helplessly.
Ada could still float in the air without using the spiral take-off method of stepping on her left foot and her right foot. She waved her wand like a whip, and a flaming rope whip as thick as a child's arm appeared out of thin air and struck the dragon's scar.
I don't know if the flame rope whip was too painful, or if this method reminded the dragon of the terrifying dragon trainer, the dragon that was ferocious not long ago immediately became much more well-behaved. The two hind legs with heavy shackles kept moving backwards. The dragon was moving away from Ada. It didn't want to eat the whip anymore.
The dragon flinched, but Ada didn't stop there. She knew that she looked a little cruel now, but she had to teach the dragon a profound lesson so that the dragon would not dare to jump out again. She was responsible for the safety of herself and the twins.
The roar became lower and lower, and the giant dragon shivered and retreated, even lowering its huge body in order to reduce its sense of existence and let the terrifying human hanging in the air let it go.
The situation of this giant dragon was already bleak enough. After Ada forced it back, she stopped taking action.
Perhaps death is a relief for the dragon, but once the dragon dies abnormally, the fact that someone broke into Gringotts will inevitably be exposed, so she can't do this.
Seeing the dragon huddled in the corner, the twins rushed over with Cozmo in hand. The two brothers ran straight to a vault. While Ada scares off the dragon, Fred and George question the goblin.
With years of tacit understanding, the twins figured out what Ada said last night and knew that she sneaked into Gringotts for Lestrange's treasury. Cozmo reluctantly put his hand on the vault door, and the vault door disappeared, revealing a hole.
The three people standing at the door looked inside. The cave was stuffed from floor to ceiling with gold coins and gold goblets, silver armor, and the furs of various exotic animals with spines or hanging wings, placed in treasure bottles. potion, and a skull still wearing a crown.
"What are we looking for?" George asked. "There are too many things in here." The treasures in the Lestrange vault were piled up like mountains. George swore that he had never seen so much property in his life. Never heard of it.
"I don't know." Ada said a little embarrassedly. The plan to enter Gringotts was her impromptu plan. She just wanted to come here to try it out. As for what Voldemort gave Bellatrix, she didn't know, and couldn't even confirm whether it was a Horcrux.
"Maybe it's a cup, maybe it's a locket. Maybe it's something else." Ada continued uncertainly.
Based on the known information, it is speculated that Hufflepuff's gold cup and Slytherin's locket may have fallen into the hands of Voldemort, and there is a high probability that this prodigal thing was made into a Horcrux. But it cannot be ruled out that Voldemort gave Bellatrix other items.
"Then look for it!" George encouraged everyone, "If you are lucky, the cup you picked up randomly may be what you are looking for." There is another possibility that George did not say, that is, looking for Less than.
The three of them walked into the vault together. The piles of treasures exuded an attractive luster. Fred and George's eyes looked at this and that. The collection of the Lestrange family was an eye-opener for the two brothers. .
As for Cosmo, he was thrown near the entrance of the cave by Fred, who was worried about leaving him alone outside the cave.
Although the treasures in the cave were huge, Ada was not shocked. She took out her glasses from her pocket, wiped the gold-rimmed glasses and put them on, and started looking for what she wanted to find.
Fred picked up a cup from a pile of gold. The cup was inlaid with various gems, and the words "wealth and wealth" were vividly displayed. Before Fred could take a closer look, a burning sensation came from his fingertips. He let go immediately in pain, and the wine glass rolled away.
"It's hot!" Fred said, sucking on his blistered fingers.
The thrown away wine glass kept splitting and turned into many identical wine glasses. After a while, Fred couldn't tell which wine glass he was burned from.
"Fire Curse and Copying Curse." Cozmo said helplessly, "If you can't find what you want as soon as possible, you and I will die here."
Now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope. If the treasures in the cave continue to be copied, no one will think well.
Gold is a good thing, but no one wants to be buried alive by gold, nor does he want to be burned to death by gold. For the sake of his own life, Cosmo had to give a warning.
Just as Cozmo spoke out, George also picked up a gold locket, and he was also burned with a big blister.
As the gold locket falls, more lockets appear. The temperature of the vault suddenly increased, becoming stuffy and suffocating. The twins no longer dared to touch anything at will, and could only search with their eyes. However, the higher and higher temperature made people become irritable. The twins' brows were both twisted, and their mentality became more and more urgent.
Ada, who wore gold-rimmed glasses, moved carefully, not daring to touch the hot gold. When Ada looked past the shield and the goblin-made helmet, she suddenly noticed a distinctive light!
Ada's eyes moved up, and she saw a small gold cup at the top of the vault.
That's what I'm looking for! This feeling welled up in Ada's heart, and it was very strong.
Ada aimed her wand at the gold cup, but the flying spell failed to make it fly towards her. Whether it is Helga Hufflepuff or Tom Riddle, the flying spell is too childish for them. How can such a simple spell be effective?
Fortunately, besides the flying curse, Ada has other methods. A colorful ribbon shot out from the tip of the yew wand. The ribbon was as flexible as a snake. It passed through the handle of the golden cup and tied a knot.
With a strong force, Ada directly pulled the golden cup down from the height, and the golden cup was pulled to her feet. Ada didn't take it immediately, but looked at the cup at her feet.
This cup looks to be made of pure gold, the handle is very finely processed, and the body of the cup is engraved with the badger that symbolizes Hufflepuff. Apparently it was Hufflepuff's golden cup, one of the two treasures lost after Hepzibah Smith's death.
The twins also came over, and in order to prevent further burns, George picked up the gold cup with his sleeved hands.
There was no burning sensation, and it was obvious that Hufflepuff's cup had not been cast with a copying spell or a fire spell, but the irritability in George's heart did not disappear, but instead became stronger.
Bloodthirsty, rage, anxiety and other negative emotions took turns appearing in George's heart.
Ada snapped her fingers in George's ear, and George's eyes that had become a little hazy regained some clarity, and his negative emotions became a little lighter.
"That's it, we should go." Ada said, taking the gold cup from George's hand.
Fred, who noticed the abnormality, decisively pulled George out, and Ada also used magic to lead Cosmo out of the vault. After everyone left the vault, the disappeared vault door reappeared, cutting off the alluring aura of the treasure.
The three of them returned to the cart with a full load, but Cozmo refused to drive away.
Ada lowered her head and said nothing. She was resisting the devil's voice whispering in her ears. This voice tried to break down her inner defenses and turn her into a monster who only knew how to kill. This is the influence brought by the Horcrux, and even Ada cannot get rid of it immediately.
"Drive!" George said fiercely, "If you don't want to be thrown out by me!"
The twins would use a similar tone when joking, but they were all jokes and never taken so seriously. The brief contact with the Horcrux amplified the violent side of George's heart, making him eager to kill, although he had never tasted blood.
