Chapter 120 Battle of the Treasury
"Why should I show clients around? I'm just a lock inspector..." A male voice came from outside the door. As he spoke, a fairy employee led a human wizard into the office.
"Mr. Mugur, how have you been?" Bai Lin stared intently at Mugur as he entered. Mugur was wearing a magic monocular on his head and had a large bag of various tools slung across his waist.
A few minutes later, Bai Lin was already on the cart leading to the underground vault, while Muguer was rocking the cart with a frustrated expression as it traveled on the suspended underground track that was only about one meter wide.
"Don't look so gloomy, Mr. Mugur. Do you think I brought 26,000 Galleons just to cause you trouble?" Bai Lin sat on the edge of the car, looking at Mugur with a smile, while Youxi curiously leaned against the car to look at the wonders in the vault tunnel.
The underground vault is likely located in a folded space, or perhaps a realm within a realm created by fairies. It is protected by powerful magic, rendering many spells, including Apparition, ineffective.
Dozens of tracks intertwine like a net in this huge underground space, leading to different areas. Each vault is like a small island floating in the vast space. They vary in size and shape, dazzling the eye.
"Then... you want to visit that vault?" Mugur's facial muscles twitched, looking like someone who had no choice but to bow their head under someone else's roof. If Bai Lin (by this time he already knew that Bai Lin was a member of a large family) complained to Gringotts, he would very likely lose his job. And losing his job was not the worst thing; all his efforts over the past year would be wasted.
"The Lestrange family's vault, I've heard. They have the best security there!" Bai Lin said calmly.
"Ah! No!" Mugul exclaimed in surprise.
"The Lestrange family's vault... the magic locks are under maintenance..." Mugur's eyes darted around, desperately searching for a reason to refuse.
"I'm just looking around outside, I'm not going in, what's the big deal about locking the door? Hehe... Speaking of which, Mr. Mugur, I wonder if you've heard about Sirius Black?" Bai Lin changed his tone abruptly.
Mugul had a bad feeling and asked, "What do you mean?"
Bai Lin said, "To tell you the truth, the Death Eater Bellatrix Lestrange died at my hands. She was the last heir of the Lestrange family (in the original book, she had a daughter with Voldemort, but in this book's alternative setting, she no longer has the chance to sleep with Benboerba).
Her only living relatives are a younger sister and a younger cousin. Her sister, Narcissa, married into the Malfoy family and naturally lost her inheritance rights. Therefore, her cousin, Sirius Black, is the sole heir to the Lestrange family fortune. Am I right?
Mugur's face showed panic, as if he had choked on something.
Bai Lin continued, "Isn't it a coincidence? Blake is my best buddy. He's so carefree that he might not realize it, but I can always kindly remind him, don't you think?"
"You, you, you can't do this!" Mugul blurted out.
Bai Lin said, "Then what are you standing there for? Take me on a tour. I might not want my good buddy to be richer than me!"
Despite his reluctance, Mugul had no choice but to lead Bai Lin through countless tunnels and overpasses to the deepest part of the underground vault, a vault area guarded by a Ukrainian iron-belly dragon.
Bai Lin glanced at the enormous Iron-Belly Dragon from afar, whose scales had turned milky white due to its long underground life and lack of sunlight. He pondered how to legally and legitimately steal this creature away.
However, just as Bai Lin jumped out of the car and was taking in the magnificent view of the entire vault entrance, You Qian suddenly exclaimed, "Watch out!"
It turned out that when Mugur saw Bai Lin get out of the car and walk ahead, he was filled with malice and drew his wand, aiming it at Bai Lin.
"Hawadakken..." Mugul didn't act rashly, but when he did, it was with a Killing Curse, which really startled Yuxi. This bank employee was actually brazenly attacking a major client with an Unforgivable Curse in the bank's underground vault. Was he insane?!
However, Mugur's emerald-green death energy missed its target. The moment he uttered his first word, Bai Lin, who had been on guard, teleported to the other side and pointed at his hand: "Frost Arrow!"
A burst of icy energy struck Mugur's arm instantly, freezing it into a block of ice.
Bai Lin could indeed subdue Mugul directly with a disarming spell, but he was still holding a grudge about his experience at the Patrice Farm. He was determined to avenge this defeat.
Bai Lin rushed forward, kicked Mugur to the ground, and stared at his head with his wand.
"You! A Death Eater scum with a combat power of only five! You think you can ambush me!" Bai Lin's wand almost pierced Mugur's flesh, making him feel a sharp pain on his face.
"You! A Death Eater scum with a combat power of only five! You think you can ambush me!" Bai Lin's wand almost pierced Mugur's flesh, making him feel a sharp pain on his face.
"You can't kill me! You attacked bank employees in the vault, you're dead!" Mugul actually didn't believe it and retaliated.
"Youxi, show it to him!" Bai Lin chuckled.
At that moment, Yuuki took out the camera she had bought a year ago from her handbag and said, "Captain, I've filmed him releasing the Unforgivable Curse as you requested!"
"You recognize this thing, right? Sending you to Azkaban isn't unfair to you, is it? I'm from the Ministry of Magic, why would I be afraid of a Death Eater like you?" Bai Lin said, stepping on Mugur's frozen arm and crushing it to pieces. Mugur screamed in agony.
Unfortunately, under the influence of the vault magic, his screams were only heard by the fire dragon in front of him. The Ukrainian Iron-Belly shook its head and stared at them fiercely. It wouldn't care about the fight between humans, and it wouldn't make any rash moves as long as they got to the vault door.
"I'll ask you a question, and you'll answer it. If I'm not satisfied with your answer, I'll feed you to the fire dragon! Understand?" Bai Lin said viciously.
Mugur, who had lost his right hand, was covered in tears and snot. He was terrified. In his eyes, Bai Lin was almost a demon from hell. He tearfully agreed.
"Who sent you? Was it for money or something else?" Bai Lin asked.
"It's Lucius! Lucius Malfoy! He's my boss..." Mugur completely broke down, betraying his employer outright: "He wants a golden cup from the vault. After it's done, all the gold coins are mine; he only wants the cup!"
"Malfoy?" Bai Lin was taken aback, not expecting this answer.
In the original story, Lucius Malfoy is a typical villainous lackey of Voldemort in the first half of the story, but in the second half he transforms into a loving husband and son. He doesn't participate in the final battle. You can call him a coward or say he has come to his senses. In any case, he is a character with a very changeable personality.
But Malfoy's desire to obtain the Golden Cup is questionable. If he didn't know that the Golden Cup was one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, why would he go to such lengths to cause trouble, even ignoring the mountains of gold coins piled up in the Lestrange family's vault?
There is only one possibility: Malfoy wants to break free from Voldemort's control and wants to use Horcruxes as a tool to restrain Voldemort.
