Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts
#165 - Safe House (asking for monthly ticket recommendation)
Seeing this, he glanced at Karkaroff very cautiously, then nodded towards the doorway, the meaning being simple: you go first and clear the way. ReadingΠ
Karkaroff wore an expression of constipation. Why is it that no matter which camp I'm in, I'm always the one doing the pathfinding and dying?
Remember the first website domain π₯π¨πππ.ππ π
Seeing that he hadn't reacted for a long time, Anduin glared at him again, and Karkaroff reluctantly lowered his head, squeezed into the doorway, and carefully moved down step by step.
"Be quicker, isn't my light orb clearing the way for you? It's not like you can't see the road?" Anduin scolded with dissatisfaction.
Karkaroff was frightened by Anduin's voice and hurriedly quickened his pace.
"How is it? Are there any traps below?" Anduin asked loudly from beside the small door.
"There's no danger at the moment, Master. It looks like an ordinary basement below." Karkaroff's voice, accompanied by a faint echo, was transmitted out.
Hearing that there was no nervousness in Karkaroff's tone, Anduin was relieved and squeezed in, going down the stairs.
After entering the basement, Anduin summoned a few more light orbs, scattering them around to illuminate the place brightly.
Looking around, the entire basement was very large, estimated to be the same size as the first floor. Half of it was an open warehouse, and the other side had several rooms. The floor was made of very heavy, flat stone blocks. The entire space had an indescribable smell, a dry, clean smell like a hospital after the alcohol smell had dissipated.
This part of the warehouse had more than a dozen rows of shelves. After a brief look, Anduin discovered they were all filled with alcohol, drinks, and easily stored food, including several hams of Teber wart hog, ordinary pork hams, sausages in bundles, rows of bacon, smoked meat, cheese, and he even saw various canned goods.
At the same time, some shelves held many other daily necessities, including boxes of candles, oil lamps, firewood, pots and pans, etc.
Moreover, the basement was kept very dry and tidy. These things were like new, showing no signs of deterioration.
"Good heavens, so many supplies, enough for one person to live for several years. These alone are a considerable gain."
Looking at this warehouse of good things, Anduin was very excited, and then immediately checked the rooms next door.
One of the rooms was a kitchen, with all kinds of equipment very complete, and even an exhaust vent was installed to exhaust fumes. The other room was a washroom, also kept very clean, looking like no one had ever used it.β
The last room was a bedroom. Directly opposite the entrance was a fireplace with a stack of firewood inside. The inner wall was very clean, without even ashes, indicating it had never been used.
On one side of the fireplace was a bed, and next to it stood several large wooden cabinets of uniform size. Opening the cabinet doors revealed they were filled with sheets, quilts, and spare clothes.
On the other side, several bookshelves were placed against the wall. Most of the space was empty, with only a dozen common books and some newspapers. Beside the middle of the bookshelf was a very large solid wood desk facing outwards, with all kinds of stationery complete, and two large stacks of parchment. Next to the desk was a thoughtfully placed wine cabinet and wine table, which were now empty, but looked very aristocratic.
"It seems this basement is a safe house prepared by the Tevras family for themselves. As long as they hide here, they can stay for three to five to seven years without any problems. It's almost like it was prepared for the end of the world," Anduin thought silently as he looked at everything here.
After carefully searching the entire bedroom, Anduin made a new discovery.
On the inner lower side of the desk, there were many drawers and cabinets. Opening the door of one of the cabinets revealed a small safe.
This safe was not like the password safes in Muggle society, with no password dials or anything like that. It only had a handle, and the rest of the position was completely empty.
Anduin placed his hand on the safe and carefully sensed it for a while, and sure enough, there was a faint magical fluctuation. It seemed this was a magical safe.
Naturally, he used the same trick again when he saw this thing, and took out the No-Mark Hammer and started smashing it. After a while, corresponding rune magic patterns appeared on it.
Looking at the dense magic patterns on the safe, Anduin couldn't help frowning. The protective magic on this was much more complicated than the protective runes at the entrance. It could almost be regarded as a hodgepodge of protective runes, with everything from explosion-proof, poison-proof, water-proof, and magic-proof.
"It's not impossible to completely crack it, but there's clearly not enough time. There's only one hour left until dawn, and I still have to take the time to set up the scene." Anduin couldn't help but feel worried looking at the safe.
However, just as he was about to give up, he seemed to have discovered something, and carefully identified a few details on the magic patterns, then his eyes lit up, he had it.
"This is actually a safe that's opened with bloodline. Only the owner of a specific bloodline can open it. If that's the case, then there's a way."
Anduin stood up, took out a small syringe from his body, threw it to Karkaroff, and ordered, "Go and draw some blood from Tokir. You should know how to use this, right?"
"Yes, I know, Master." Karkaroff, who had been waiting quietly on the side, replied after receiving the syringe.
I didn't know it originally, but after you used it on us a few times, I still learned it, Karkaroff muttered to himself as he looked at the syringe in his hand.
"Hurry up!" Anduin urged anxiously, regardless of what Karkaroff was thinking.
"Yes, Master."
Karkaroff, who had been scolded, hurriedly ran upstairs. The four people lying on the second floor were still unconscious. Some had passed out from being unable to withstand the mental stimulation, some had passed out from the pain, and some had fainted from exhaustion after being tortured.
Karkaroff glanced at the miserable state of the people, unable to bear to look directly, swallowed, and hurriedly drew a tube of blood and ran downstairs.
After obtaining the blood sample, Anduin smeared a little blood on the safe, then took out his wand and silently chanted a spell. After a while, the blood on the box wall slowly seeped into the safe, and then with a 'click', the box door opened in response.
"Very good, I didn't expect that after learning bloodline magic for half a year, it can be used for lock picking in addition to assisting alchemy," Anduin muttered, then gently pulled open the box door.
The safe was divided into two layers. The upper layer was very empty, with only a key and a piece of paper.
