Chapter 422 Fairy's Vault
For ancient wizards, thirty-three is a sacred number.
The goblins also maintain this tradition. Their pyramids have a total of thirty-three floors, and King Legnac lives on the topmost floor, which represents the place where the "god" lives.
The lowest room of the pyramid is Legnac's treasury, which stores the treasures he has looted over the years.
Few goblins can enter it, and as the loyal Finance Minister Calais, who has served conscientiously for many years, he is one of the few.
At night, Calles walked up the long stairs alone. He passed through three giant arches, walked a slope lit by torches, and finally stopped in front of a double door covered with spells.
A group of goblins stood on both sides. They were the guards on duty tonight. The leading captain, Akuya, stepped forward and asked:
"Mr. Carles, why are you here so late?"
"Slytherin wants to buy armor, and His Majesty the King asked me to get the purple armor."
"The purple armor has been around for a long time, and it was built when Cuban was alive." Akuya gossiped: "The price is not cheap, right?"
"That boy is the son of Salazar Slytherin, his godmother is Hufflepuff, and his teacher is Gryffindor. I heard that he will marry Ravenclaw's daughter and be his son-in-law!"
Calles said in a deep voice: "Hogwarts will be his family property in the future, and they have gold."
"Mother, what a big background?!" Akua had also heard about Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft for wizards, and he envied:
"Wizards were born to wizards, and goblins were born to goblins... They were all born to gods, why is there such a big difference?"
"Okay, hurry up and open the vault door." Calles took out an ancient key from his pocket, handed it to Akua and said:
"His Majesty is still waiting!"
"Well, Mr. Carles...but I have to bring two guards to go in with you." Akuya took the key and said with an apologetic smile:
"It's not that I don't believe you, but last time Aruba was lazy and didn't follow up, and was beaten up after being discovered by His Majesty the King.
He has now been sent to grow potatoes in Ireland. "
"No problem." Callas said blankly.
Akua inserted the key into the keyhole, and with the creaking sound of the chain, the door slowly opened.
The four of them stepped into a narrow corridor made of black and red bricks. Accompanied by the sound of footsteps echoing in the darkness, they entered a magnificent hall:
Gold coins and gold dust piled up like mountains; emeralds, emeralds, agates, tourmalines, amber, opals, and amethysts floated in the light, and the hall was full of jewels.
Akua swallowed, every time he came in and saw this kind of scene, his eyes hurt from being shaken... I really want to move back home.
"It's all here, let's move some things and go?" A voice suddenly sounded, "Everyone will have a share."
Akua was taken aback, he thought he had accidentally spoken out his heart, so he quickly covered his chest, but felt something was wrong.
Akua looked at the arm on his shoulder, which was clearly the hand of a wizard.
He realized something was wrong, and was about to turn around when someone grabbed his neck.
Rove, who appeared from the phantom state, strengthened his hands, grabbed Akua's neck, lifted it up fiercely, and lifted his feet off the ground to block in front of him.
A goblin guard had already pulled out his long sword and slashed at Rove, but it fell on Akua. The surface of the snow-white armor splashed brilliant sparks.
Rove swung his arm, and a jet of water condensed from the air. He stabbed fiercely and hit the goblin's head ferociously. It shattered and burst into a spray of water.
The goblin flew backwards like a kite, circling a few times in the air.
Rove grabbed Akuya's head and pressed it down hard, his back fell to the ground hard, and the boy stepped on him again, which happened to be on his face, and he passed out.
Cassandra had also defeated a goblin, the contact between light and flint, the two sides settled down, and the three guards had fallen to the ground.
Looking around, gems and gold were everywhere, but Rove didn't even look at it. He just asked:
"Cassandra, where is the Stone of Destiny?"
Cassandra rubbed her fingers, and a wisp of extremely thin smoke filled the air, wrapping the entire room in strands.
After a while, the white mist gathered and drifted into the distance.
Rove turned his head and looked, and saw another door, but there were traces of melting, and there were bumps on both sides of the door, showing that the things inside wanted to break through the door.
Rove looked at Carles, and under Cassandra's control, he replied:
"There is a Welsh green dragon guarding behind the door. It only recognizes Raignac. Anyone who enters will be directly attacked."
"Fire dragon."
Rove frowned. He grabbed the iron door and pulled it aside. The door creaked and screamed.
The boy waved his wand, and a water mirror flew out, reflecting the scene behind the door.
There was another room behind the door. A Welsh green dragon was wrapped around its neck by an iron chain. After it was woken up, it sniffed and green smoke came out of its nostrils.
The green dragon suddenly opened its mouth, light and heat came together, and a glimpse of a furnace-like scene lit up the room, it was a pale golden pillar of fire mixed with blood red and orange.
Obviously, as long as someone passes by, they will be roasted by the dragon's breath.
Rove waited for a moment, and when the flames were extinguished, he suddenly took a step forward, turned his head to look at the fire dragon, and said loudly:
"Dazzling flash!"
The boy's eyes were shining brightly, and the white light was dazzling. The Welsh green dragon saw nothing but a vast expanse of whiteness.
The fire dragon roared and moved indiscriminately. The chain around its neck stretched, and it slammed back to the ground with a "bang".
Rove took the opportunity to pull Cassandra, rushed over quickly, and entered another room.
This room seems to be much smaller, and there are much fewer items placed there, but each item is much more valuable than the hall just now.
Rove searched the room, and soon found a pale yellow stone. He held it up high, and the stone was shining brightly, with faint strands of sunlight shining.
Rove stroked the stone tenderly, heaved a sigh of relief and said:
"Finally found you... Stone of Destiny, you can go home."

the top of the pyramid,
King Raignac came out yawning, wearing a green brocade nightgown studded with pearls and silver thread, and as he tied it he walked to the cupboard.
Legnac took out a bottle of wine from the cabinet, he pulled the cork off, tilted his head and took a big gulp, the wine flowed down his throat like a ball of cold fire.
After he finished drinking, he wiped his mouth, looked at his valet, and said angrily, "What's going on? Karum, do you want to wake me up now?"
"Your Majesty the King." The elf named Karum trembled, holding a crystal ball and said, "Someone just sneaked into the vault and touched the magic."
"What?"
Legnac took the crystal ball, only to see a picture inside: In a small room, a boy is holding a stone in his hand.
"Damn it! Treacherous thief!"
Legnac swung his jeweled goblet, wine spilled all over his pajamas.
"What a Slytherin! How dare you steal from me!"
Legnac threw the cup toward the ground, and he ordered:
"Immediately lock the door of the vault, let them die inside, and never come out again!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
