Professor The Vampire Earl of Hogwarts

Bellatrix and Regulus evaded the searching Aurors, slowly groped to the boundary of the anti-apparition spell, and then disappeared into the bushes together.

The next moment, two people appeared in Diagon Alley.

"Listen, Bella," Regulus pulled Bellatrix into a hidden corner, and whispered, "You must cover your face, and now the Ministry of Magic's wanted notices are posted everywhere Yes, others can easily spot you."

"So what if they find out?" Bellatrix said disdainfully, "This group of people doesn't pose any threat to us at all."

"But they will expose our situation here, and the elite Aurors will rush over at any time!" Regulus emphasized, "It's unavoidable, at least change your appearance."

He kind of broke his heart for his big-hearted Death Eater cousin.

Before Voldemort's Horcrux is obtained, Regulus must ensure that Bellatrix will not be caught by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, otherwise the Horcrux will definitely not be available, and his plan will be in vain.

Although it is a hostile faction, the feeling that they can only protect the enemy is really not very good.

Under Regulus' persuasion, Bellatrix finally covered her face with a scarf, and the two walked together to the Gringotts Wizarding Bank on the north side of Diagon Alley.

Masked wizards are still very common in Diagon Alley. After all, the adjacent street is a Knockturn Alley mixed with various groups of fish and dragons. There are many wizards doing illegal transactions, dark wizards who study black magic, and even ghouls. Dark creatures such as liches and liches don't like to show their faces.

However, it is now a time of war. After Amelia Bones came to power, Aurors were arranged to stand guard in Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley, places with extremely dense wizard populations, to check masked wizards in the alleys at any time.

Fortunately, the Auror who was in charge of the inspection was not an elite, so he was easily deceived by Regulus' Confusion Curse and let Bella let Luca go.

The two walked all the way to the tall snow-white marble building to the north.

The gate of Gringotts Wizarding Bank faced Diagon Alley, and a white stone staircase led to two shiny bronze gates.Beside the gate stood a goblin in a livery of scarlet and gold.

Unlike the heavily guarded Diagon Alley, Gringotts claims to be the safest place in the entire wizarding world, claiming that no one can steal anything from them, so the order here is as usual.

Besides, the leprechauns in the bank don't care whether the people who come here to withdraw money are heroes or criminals.

They have only one attitude towards wizards—that is, different levels of customers.

Sure enough, the goblin guarding the bronze gate didn't even look at the masked Bella, and directly put her and Regulus inside the bank.

After entering the first door, there was an inner hall. The two continued to walk in, passed through a silver door, and then entered a tall marble hall.

Hundreds of goblins sat on stools behind a long counter, weighing coins with copper scales, examining gems with eyepieces, or scribbling entries in large ledgers.There are countless doors in the hall, leading to different vaults.

Regulus and Bellatrix walked towards an older goblin who was examining a thick gold coin through a mirror.

Bellatrix stepped forward.

"I'm going into my vault," she said nonchalantly, pulling off her mask.

"Oh, you are... Mrs. Lestrange!" The goblin seemed to be taken aback, with a surprised expression on his face, "I thought you were wanted now..."

"Does my being wanted have anything to do with whether I come here to withdraw money?" Bellatrix said coldly.

"Of course it doesn't matter!" The old goblin hurriedly said, "You are a distinguished platinum member of Gringotts, and you can enjoy the most extreme service of Gringotts at any time."

As he spoke, he took out a narrow quill and began to register on a piece of parchment.

"Do you have... an identity certificate?" The old goblin asked while writing.

Bellatrix handed over her wand.

"Oh, yes, I see," said the old goblin behind the counter, looking down at Bellatrix's wand, "it is indeed your wand, if so..."

He clapped his hands, and a slightly younger goblin came over.

"I'll use jingle chips," said the older goblin to him.

The young goblin left quickly, and presently brought a small leather bag to the older goblin, which seemed to be full of tinkling metal.

The Jingle Piece is a magical implement unique to Gringotts -

The high-security vaults in banks are usually guarded by fire dragons. These fire dragons have been "trained" to leave the vaults guarded by them by reflexively associating with the pain they have suffered after hearing the sound of jingle pieces.

Gringotts goblin employees use this method to gain access to specific vaults.

"Okay, then please come with me, Mrs. Lestrange." The elder goblin said, jumping off the stool, being blocked by the counter, "I will take you to your vault."

A moment later he appeared at the end of the counter and trotted towards them, the contents of the little purse still clinking.

The old goblin led Regulus and Bellatrix into a side door, and sat in a trolley on the track, turning around along the labyrinth-like corridors, making sharp turns between various large and small stalactites , galloping towards the depths of the ground.

After passing through a waterfall of anti-thieves, reaching an unknown depth underground, the old goblin began to shake the jingle piece.

A huge fire dragon is tied in a relatively wide space, preventing people from approaching the four or five deepest vaults there...

The noise of jingle pieces echoed between the stone walls, and was amplified many times, making people's ears hurt. The fire dragon let out a hoarse roar and retreated tremblingly.

The old goblin didn't seem to like the sound very much. Frowning, he hurried to a gap in the wall, and pressed his palm on a wooden board next to the metal vault door—the vault door disappeared, revealing a hole.

The cave was stuffed from floor to ceiling with gold coins and goblet, silver armor, hides of various exotic animals with spines or drooping wings, potions in vases, and one still wearing a crown. skull.

"This is..." Regulus couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw the countless treasures, "Are you looting all the wealth of the Black family... you are a married woman How did you get so many?!"

He almost exposed the fact that he had only seen the Black family's vault not long ago, but fortunately he reacted in time - now the Black family's vault is controlled by Sirius, who has contributed a lot of operating funds to the Order of the Phoenix.

Presumably Bellatrix was not less angry about this incident.

"I can't find where you are, and the traitors of Sirius Black's family don't deserve the family property at all!" Bellatrix said disdainfully, "So I went to the old house and took some things to dedicate to the black family." Isn't the Demon King a matter of course?"

Regulus frowned, already extremely angry in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.

He reached for one of the gold dinner plates, which he vaguely remembered used to be everywhere in Blake's old house, but few of which were to be found now.

"Don't touch it, especially you!" Bellatrix yelled suddenly, and slapped Regulus' outstretched hand back.

"What's the matter?" Regulus frowned and looked at her. "I, Regulus Black, can't touch the legacy of these families?"

"I'm too lazy to care if you touch these useless things, I'm afraid you will die here!" Bellatrix said angrily, "Fire and copy spells are cast on this, and anything that touches will be burned and reproduced afterwards."

"If you have a physique like a corpse like yours, if you are overwhelmed by the things turned into by the copying curse, I'm afraid you will be directly burned into a mummy by the fire curse!"

Regulus took two steps back in fear, away from the deadly treasures in front of him.

Fortunately, I found Bellatrix to bring him to this vault in person. If someone else came here to look for Horcruxes, if they were not careful, they might be buried in the treasure by the two spells of Duplication Curse and Blazing Curse. middle……

"Don't stand so far away, come and help me." Bellatrix said irritably, "It's really troublesome. I'm going to cast a spell on these things one by one. I don't know when it will take to get the master to give it to me." s things."

……

Two hours later, Regulus and Bellatrix wearily walked out of the bronze doors of Gringotts.

"What's your plan next, where do you want to put the master's things?" Bellatrix asked nervously, holding a gold cup firmly in her arms, "I think it's okay Hiding in our abandoned bunker..."

However, before she finished speaking, a group of wizards appeared in front of her unconsciously, surrounding the two siblings indistinctly.

Bellatrix looked at the magic wands tightly held in the hands of those wizards and the uniform uniforms on their bodies, and suddenly realized something was wrong.

"You leaked my news?!" She suddenly turned her head to look at the old goblin who sent them out, and screamed furiously, "Why did the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic just come here to block us?"

"Don't be angry, Mrs. Lestrange, aren't you safe inside Gringotts?" The old goblin put on a weird smile on his face, and said slyly, "We at Gringotts only guarantee financial Safety, but there is no business that guarantees that customers will always be safe after going out..."

"If you want to blame, you can only blame the unreasonable Ministry of Magic of you wizards... If we don't agree to cooperate with them, Gringotts will be forced to close down."

Bellatrix's face turned blue, she angrily pulled out her wand from her sleeve, and pointed at the Aurors who surrounded her.

"I should have thought that these cunning goblins would never want to keep their promises!" Bellatrix said bitterly, "Regulus, before the top combat power of the Ministry of Magic arrives, let's go together Get out! These Aurors can't stop us!"

"No problem." Regulus nodded, and also drew out his wand.

A stunning spell shot from the tip of his wand—

The next moment, the curse hit Bellatrix in the back of the heart impartially.

Bellatrix opened her eyes wide in surprise, turned her head with the last bit of strength, and saw Regulus nodded to the Auror captain in front, and then walked in front of her.

Bellatrix couldn't control her dizzy brain any longer, and closed her eyes. Before she fell into a coma, she felt a cold hand pull out the golden cup she was clutching tightly to her chest...

……

"Is the Horcrux in Bellatrix Lestrange's hand really Helga's cup?"

In Dracula's castle, Dracula plays with the delicate gold cup in his hand.

This gold cup has two handles of finely worked solid gold, and a small badger is beautifully carved on the cup.

"Thank you for your hard work this time, Regulus." Dracula looked at Regulus Black who was sitting next to him, and smiled at him, "Cheated Bellatrix Lestrange Isn't it easy?"

"Actually, it's okay. After all, I saved her from the Auror at the most dangerous moment." Regulus shook his head.

Immediately, he asked curiously: "Mr. Dracula, do you seem to have guessed that Bella is holding Hufflepuff's golden cup?"

"It's actually quite easy to guess." Dracula said happily, "It's easy to see from the few Horcruxes discovered before, Rowena's crown, Salazar's locket, and the Gunter family's The Resurrection Stone..."

"Even that relatively ordinary diary has quite a unique commemorative meaning. I asked Tom Riddle who was born in the diary, and he said that it was the diary that recorded his discovery that he was a descendant of Slytherin. The whole process."

"It is clear that Voldemort loved to collect memorabilia, objects of great magical and historical significance. His pride, his sense of superiority, his determination to claim an astonishing place in the history of magic for himself all testify to the fact that Voldemort would have chosen carefully. His Horcruxes, prefer items worthy of this honor..."

"What's more, Rowena and Salazar's souvenirs have been taken by him. I don't think he will be able to resist finding Helga's things to make one of his Horcruxes..."

"If it weren't for knowing that Godric's sword is in the Sorting Hat's belly, I even think Voldemort would have made that sword into a Horcrux."

Dracula looked at the golden cup in his hand, which he hadn't seen for more than 1000 years, and suddenly raised the corners of his mouth playfully.

"It's really embarrassing to that guy Voldemort, showing me all the things of my old friend; not only that, but even let Albus collect three Deathly Hallows by the way."

"Let me count...we've got Riddle's diary, Rowena's diadem, Salazar's locket, Helga's gold cup, and the Gunter family's ring, a total of five Horcruxes .”

"If Voldemort wants to divide his soul into seven pieces, there is still the last Horcrux left..."

"What will the last Horcrux be?"
