Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1330 Darker than a dark wizard

  After Harry left the shelter, Albert, who was hidden under the Disillusionment Charm, returned quietly, and used the spell to quietly control Griphook and Gornuk who were discussing this matter in Fairy Tongue.

   "Sure enough, they are all the same thing."

  Albert knew better than anyone how difficult it was to get the goblins to betray and assist them in stealing the contents of the Gringotts vault.

  Harry used the Gryffindor sword as a reward, which indeed has enough weight.

   But the goblins didn't expect them to keep their word, and they still wanted to get the Gryffindor sword.

  Their thoughts couldn't be hidden from Albert, who had a very high Legilimency skill.

  From the very beginning, Albert did not pin his hopes on the reputation of the goblin.

  He's not that stupid.

  The goblins also don't trust them.

  So, you have to follow your own plan, which is undoubtedly more reliable.

  Although it is true that he is a bit smart, most of the time he still prefers to trust his own wisdom and judgment.

   This is a common problem of most geniuses.

  Although Albert is a fake, a fake genius is a genius.

   Albert's self-confidence comes from his strength.

   Re-use Legilimency to dig out more useful information from the goblin's mind.

  For example, after the old goblin Bogrod was the key to opening Lestrange's vault, Albert first felt the limit of Legilimency, or the limit of goblins.

  The Fairy's Brain is not a book, you can't read it at will.

  Once he strengthens Legilimency, it will cause irreversible damage to the goblin's brain.

  Considering that the two sides did not have deep hatred, and that the goblin in front of him was of great use to Harry's invasion of Gringotts, Albert stopped before Legilimency affected the brains of the two goblins, and prepared to use other methods to collect the necessary information.

  Looking at the two goblins in front of him, Albert felt that Harry should thank himself, otherwise it would be troublesome to have to fight with goblins before finding the Horcrux.

  After helping Harry deal with the two goblins, Albert planned to visit the old goblin Bogrod without stopping.

  That guy moved back to the ruins of the former Fairy Kingdom a few months ago.

   This is due to the first rise of Voldemort. The goblins who suffered heavy losses learned their lessons and established temporary goblin villages near the ruins of the goblin kingdom thousands of years ago.

  After Voldemort re-announced his return, many goblins moved their homes deep underground to avoid being alone outside and being ruthlessly slaughtered by Death Eaters.

  In fact, something similar happened shortly after Voldemort's return.

Ludo Bagman, who was recruited due to the lack of Death Eaters, in order to retaliate against the goblins for collecting debts, intimidating, harassing and hurting him day and night, together with other dark wizards killed and ransacked several goblin families who were alone, The exquisite goblin silverware harvested made the poor dark wizards almost go crazy.

   The goblin was targeted for a reason.

  Although the odds are low, goblin silver is worth a lot.

   Apparition came near the entrance of the goblins' kingdom below, and Albert felt the cold rain falling on his head as soon as he regained his vision.

  He raised his wand to create an umbrella to block the rain, and then walked towards the expected target.

   It is said that this used to be one of the entrances to the Fairy Kingdom. Now the ruins at the entrance have been completely weathered, and no ruins are left. Ordinary wizards may not even find the entrance.

   If it wasn't for peeping into Gonuk's memory, he really wouldn't be here.

   Albert found the entrance without any obstacles. Inside was a completely deserted ruin, and there were some surprising things around him.

   Some fluorescent moss.

  The magical world always brings surprises.

   After Albert used magic to collect some fluorescent moss, he continued to explore the cave.

   This place has been completely abandoned, leaving only an abandoned cave that has been mined.

  However, Albert found a large gray mushroom of unknown species in a place that was suspected to be a mushroom field.

  According to records, the food of goblins is meat, rhizomes and various fungi.

  After Albert collected some more mushroom samples, he continued to walk deep into the cave until...

   Looking at the abyss in front of him, Albert only felt his scalp go numb.

   And, not only that, he could feel the traces of magic left around him.

   He didn't know whether the magic would continue to work, but it was not a good choice to directly invade the former kingdom of the goblins.

   "I'm a little dazzled!" Albert looked at the abyss in front of him and laughed at himself, "When did I become so arrogant!"

  The abyss in front of him is not a problem, just push it all the way, but the problem is that he is not the Dark Lord, and there is a possibility that other elves will be disturbed if he breaks in. Moreover, the maze underneath is enough to make him miserable, which is really not worthwhile.

   There is clearly a better solution to this matter.

  Albert planned to ask a goblin to help him go to the goblin gathering place.

   There is a more convenient way to go directly from Gringotts by trolley.

  However, since the Death Eaters took control of Gringotts, it has been closely monitored. Otherwise, it would be a good choice to go directly to Gringotts to control Bogorod using the second plan.

  The only problem is that he must control the other party silently, so that he cannot be suspected of losing his position and authority at Gringotts, otherwise everything will become meaningless.

  Between going deep and using the second plan, Albert chose to adopt the third plan, and asked a Death Eater to help him do it.

  Anyway, whatever the Death Eaters do, it doesn't seem to be surprising.

   As for who to choose to take the blame, Albert has already chosen.

   His old friend Ludo Bagman.

  With Ludo Bagman's grievances with the goblin, it is not surprising to do something excessive.

   Who made Ludo Bagman poor.

   Many dark wizards want to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

  Through crystal ball divination, Albert easily found the whereabouts of Ludo Bagman, who was selling stolen goods in Hogsmeade's Hog's Head Bar.

   With another disguise, it was not difficult to sneak into Hogsmeade quietly.

   There are a lot of dark wizards here, it doesn't matter if you are a Muggle wizard or not.

  The only problem is the possibility of encountering dementors.

  Yaxley used the dementors as hunting dogs. Once a dark wizard made trouble in Hogsmeade, the Death Eaters would release the dementors to trouble those troublesome dark wizards.

  Dementors can easily see through camouflage, no matter using transfiguration or compound potion, he believes that once he encounters a dementor, those terrifying monsters will definitely recognize him.

   When the time comes, he will definitely be besieged.

  Although Albert is not worried about this, he does not want to cause commotion and unnecessary trouble. Because in his plan, it was the dark wizard who came here to trade to cause trouble for the Death Eaters.

   It is normal for dark wizards to have conflicts over certain things, even if people die because of it, it is not surprising.

   After all, black magic is dangerous.

   "It seems that I need some luck."

   Albert grumbled and threw a felic elixir into his mouth. Under the watchful eyes of the house elf, he disguised himself as a dark wizard and prepared to go to Hogsmeade village.

   I accidentally lost the manuscript last night, and I couldn’t recover it no matter what I did. I was depressed for a long time, so I had to rewrite it.
