Chapter 1493 The Plan to Break Into Gringotts
"I don't know if this is the first case after the murder of the Riddle family, but you two must have seen it. This time he is not out for revenge, but for profit." Dumbledore said, "He wants to Those two odd treasures that poor old lady showed him, just like he robbed the other kids in the orphanage, just like he stole his uncle's ring, this time he stole Hepzibah's cup and a locket."
Murder for profit shows that Voldemort's motivation is very rational and he will not be easily emotional.
Of course, it is doubtful how much of this rationality is left today.
The growing strength and split soul have made him impatient to plan sophisticated murders.
Now, Voldemort killed anyone who hindered him or simply made him uncomfortable.
"I hope you can understand the significance of these things to him. He didn't choose the items used to make Horcruxes randomly. Each of his Horcruxes is extremely special to him. These things are more or less It's all about Hogwarts, he can't resist something steeped in Hogwarts history, you have to remember this." Dumbledore said, looking at the clock next to him, "It's getting late, we This is the end of the lesson about Voldemort tonight, and then we can talk about the gold cup and the home of the house elves."
Ivan noticed that Dumbledore was looking at him with a smile. He sorted out his thoughts and said, "I once saw Hufflepuff use that gold cup, which is her favorite thing. Of course, it may now It has been made into a Horcrux by Voldemort. Professor, are you sure there is information about the home of the house-elves?"
"I think so. As long as we trace the history of the golden cup, we will know that it is not a wizard product, but made by house elves. It was originally a vessel to assist house elves in transporting magic food." Dumbledore Lido said, "The first house-elf who came to work at Hogwarts gave it to Helga Hufflepuff, and that house-elf is the Dodo we're looking for, and the maker of the golden cup..."
These are the history of the Hufflepuff Cup, a magical vessel made by house-elves.
It sounds a bit similar to Gryffindor's sword made by goblins, but there are many kinds of ǔ qì made by goblins. This is the first time Ivan has heard that house elves can make something. Needless to say, Gold Cup is connected to Hufflepuff and her house-elf friends, but what does that have to do with house-elves?
"House-elves don't make many magic utensils. If you have been in contact with other items, you will know that house-elves have a habit of leaving a unique mark on the magic utensils they make." Dumbledore paused After a while, he continued, "I think, have you seen the pattern on the bottom of the gold cup?"
"I see it, but I can't understand it!" Ivan said uncertainly, "That pattern seems to be a kind of text."
As Voldemort turned the cup upside down, he noticed the strange pattern at the bottom of the cup.
"It is indeed text, the language of the ancient elves, a kind of rune that has died out. Few people know it now, but it is not impossible to decipher. For example, my old friend Nicolas May knows this kind of text." Dumbledore He smiled and said, "From him, I was also fortunate to know the information contained in the imprint left by the house elf, mainly the name of the house elf who made this utensil and the place where it was made. Not surprisingly, that place is The place we were looking for."
That is to say, the strange pattern on the bottom of the Hufflepuff gold cup will contain information about where it was made. This gold cup was made by the house elf Duoduo, so the place of making it must be his hometown, that is, he finally took it with him. Where the Hufflepuff Treasure Key goes back to, the home of the house-elves!
This is a very direct and effective clue, much more reliable than using the method of elimination or pure guesswork.
"So Professor, where is the gold cup?" Harry couldn't help asking.
"I don't know. Voldemort will undoubtedly hide it somewhere he thinks is safe." said Dumbledore. As I told you, he will not choose a Horcrux for no reason, nor will he randomly choose the location where the Horcrux is hidden..."
Yes, yes, that trophy is currently in Gringotts' most heavily guarded vault.
Although it has been said before, Ivan has to say it again, this is a rather troublesome place. He had broken into Gringotts in Egypt once before, but that time he was accompanied by goblins, and the defense measures of Gringotts in Egypt and the headquarters of Gringotts in England were not the same at all.
With Aiwen's current strength, it is not impossible to break in, just like what Quirrell and Voldemort did back then, but the degree of danger is also very high. Besides, Quirrell only went to the vault in the ordinary area, and the Lestrange family's vault that Ivan was going to was located in the most heavily guarded area of Gringotts.
The difficulty of the two places cannot be compared!
To break into Gringotts, Aiwen needs to prepare and prepare.
Perhaps, he could tell Dumbledore about it, at the risk of being exposed.
Anyway, he has always had good luck in finding Horcruxes, and the principal may have gotten used to it. But even Dumbledore can't make the goblin hand over the contents of the vault, so the final result is to break in, but if Dumbledore leads him into Gringotts...
Ivan looked at Dumbledore again, thinking it's better to dismiss this idea as soon as possible.
……………………………………………………………………………
Dumbledore's lessons stuffed a lot of things into Ivan and Harry's heads at once, Ivan can still be better, he can remember more or less about Voldemort's past, and now he needs to consider how to get the gold cup from Gringotts; and Compared to him, Harry had more things to think and digest, and he didn't sleep well all night.
The next day, they told Hermione, Elaine and Ron about these things as usual.
After some discussion, it is determined that what needs to be done before the goal is the homework left by Dumbledore and the memory of Slughorn, but this is not the focus of Ivan, let Harry work hard , that memory doesn't mean much to Ivan, and Slughorn has always been wary of him.
He was already vigilant enough. If Aiwen moved too much, it would have bad results.
That's what Dumbledore said, so Harry should be the main one in this matter, and Ivan should help from the side.
Harry's first test was in the first potions class after Dumbledore's class.
It was pretty much the same class as usual, with him taking the limelight with his knowledge from Advanced Potion Making...
