Ghost Rider's Judgment

Chapter 4 Gibbon’s Treasury

From Gibbon's memory, Chen Qi got a lot of clues about the world.

For example, the current Harry Potter has enrolled in Hogwarts three years ago, and the Quidditch World Cup is about to start.

It can be seen from this information that the timeline at this time should take place in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire".

In other words, Voldemort has not yet been reborn at this time, which can be heard from what Gibbon said before: "The master is about to return."But now the Death Eaters may have taken action. Wormtail and Barty Jr. are ready to resurrect Voldemort, and the time and place of resurrection will be the Triwizard Cup and the Riddle family cemetery.

Voldemort is now only in the physical state of an infant and has lost his magic power, and the only two Death Eaters beside him are Wormtail and Barty Jr.This Death Eater named Gibbon has not contacted Voldemort during this period. He may have wanted to be prepared. If Voldemort did not succeed, he would not be imprisoned in Azkaban. If Voldemort succeeded, he would not be imprisoned in Azkaban. He immediately went to serve his former master.

After digesting Gibbon's memory, Chen Qi's next goal should be to go directly to Voldemort. After all, Voldemort is only in the infant's physical state, and there are only two Death Eaters, Wormtail and Barty Jr., around him. In the Ghost Rider state, Chen Qi was very good at dealing with them.

But judging from the information he currently has, he doesn't know the specific location of Voldemort.

And now he still needs to solve a very critical issue, which is food, clothing, housing and transportation in this world.

As far as he knew, the wizarding world had its own currency system, so Muggle money didn't work here at all. Although Chen Qi could also go to Gringotts to exchange it, he didn't think there was any significance in exchanging five pounds.

Fortunately, Chen Qi learned from Yoshimoto's memory that Yoshimoto had a large deposit in Gringotts, and he could definitely find a way to withdraw it, because one of Gringotts' anti-theft measures was to only recognize the key but not the person.

So as long as Chen Qi has Gibbon's key, he can withdraw Gibbon's money at any time.

According to Gibbon's memory, Chen Qi found his vault key, and then set off for Gringotts.

Gringotts is located in Diagon Harbor, very close to the Leaky Cauldron, which is a snow-white building that stands high above the surrounding shops.

Chen Qi walked towards Gringotts. Beside the shiny bronze door, stood a short figure wearing a scarlet and gold uniform.

"That's it, the goblin?" Chen Qi looked at the figure and murmured in his heart.

This goblin was only as tall as Chen Qi's abdomen, with a dark face and a pointed beard. When Chen Qi entered, he bowed politely to Chen Qi.

Although I had been prepared for it, when I saw this kind of creature that only appeared in movies for the first time, I still felt a little strange.

Gringotts is a wizarding bank run by goblins, and it is also the only bank for wizards. The reason why wizards put their money in Gringotts with peace of mind is because of the security measures here.

Rubeus Hagrid said when he took Harry Potter to Gringotts for the first time: "Only a madman would rob Gringotts."

One of the reasons is that these goblins know sorcery, and there are fire dragons guarding the place.

Chen Qi came to the second silver door, which was engraved with verses saying that thieves will be punished.

After he passed through the second door, two more goblins bowed to him and led him into a tall marble hall.On the side of the hall, there were about a hundred goblins behind a row of long counters, all doing their own jobs.

Under the guidance of the two goblins, Chen Qi walked to the counter.

"Hello!" Chen Qi said to a goblin behind the counter: "I need to withdraw some money from Mr. Gibbon's vault!"

"Do you have his key, sir?" the goblin said without raising his head.

"Oh, of course!" Chen Qi said, and then took out a small golden key with a strange shape from his pocket.

This is the key to the vault that he found based on Gibbon's memory.

The goblin put down what he was doing, then looked at Chen Qi's key carefully, and then stared at Chen Qi for a while.

The goblin wore old-fashioned glasses and looked older, with a very old-fashioned complexion.Chen Qi was very uncomfortable being stared at by his eyes, and couldn't help but wonder if he made a mistake in some step and the old goblin saw it.

"Of course, no problem!" the goblin said, pushing up his glasses, and then shouted: "Griphook, take our guests to the underground vault!"

Griphook was another goblin. After he took Gibbon's key, he took Chen Qi out of the hall through one of the doors.

After bringing Chen Qi to the entrance, Grihuan opened the door.Chen Qi then saw that there was a narrow stone corridor inside the door, and the corridor was illuminated by torches on both sides.

This stone corridor does not have stairs, but a very steep downhill slope with a railway track on it. This kind of road is obviously impossible to walk.Griphook whistled, and a small cart that didn't look sturdy rushed towards them along the railway track.

"Please come up, sir!" After the car stopped, Grihuan said to Chen Qi.

Chen Qi looked at the trolley. There were no protective fences around it, and the railway looked a bit old, which made him extremely suspicious of the safety measures here.

"Forget it, it's just like a roller coaster!" Chen Qi comforted himself, and then climbed up.

Griphook also got on the cart, and then the cart started moving.

They were galloping on the winding railway. At first, the speed of the trolley was a bit slow, which Chen Qiwei could accept, but before he could catch his breath, the trolley started to accelerate crazily, and the cold air whizzed past. , making his eyes sting extremely.

After an unknown amount of time, the speed of the car seemed to slow down. They had reached a deeper place underground. After passing an underground lake, the cart finally stopped in front of a small door beside the passage.

"Ouch~!"

After getting off the bus, Chen Qi finally couldn't help but vomited out. He rarely did things like roller coasters before, so he was a little uncomfortable with it.

"It's normal for this kind of problem to occur for the first time!" The fairy Griphook said calmly.

Then he turned around and walked towards the door to unlock it.

I saw him touching the door of the vault with his hand, and then a faint golden light flashed on the door, and then there was no response. Griphook frowned and tried again, but it was still the same situation just now.

"This gentleman!" Griphook's tone suddenly became cold, and he said in a low voice, "I think you must have seen the poem engraved on the second silver door before entering Gringotts!"

Chen Qi seemed to realize something was wrong, but he still said calmly: "Yes, I saw it, is there any problem?"

Griphook turned around, stared at Chen Qi coldly, and said, "Then you must have seen the last sentence in the poem, 'If you want to take away a piece of wealth that has never belonged to you from our underground vault, Thief, you have been warned, beware not of treasure but of retribution."
