Ivan does not know what the unpleasant scene that Sirius said will be, but it seems a little strange that the wind blows out from the surrounding small rock cracks.
This is tens of thousands of feet deep underground, so there should be no wind. Moreover, these winds are not the gusty winds that would blow from deep in the cave, but a little temperature, like the warm wind at noon.
In places where the wind should not appear, strong winds with very high temperature appear. Is there an legendary magical artifact(s) below? ! But will this scale be too large ...
At the edge of the stairs, Griphook clapped his hands, and a small cart rushed out of a dark, hidden gap in the rock wall, and he beckoned everyone to sit up.
Everyone climbed up one after another, huddled together, looking nervously ahead, not knowing what was waiting for them.
The Griphook snapped a finger, and the trolley restarted. This time, the cart is not as fast as it was just now.
When it slowly turned around the corner and rushed out of the cave, Ivan felt a stronger warm wind blowing from below.
He hurriedly looked out, and in the endless darkness, he noticed that he was floating in the air.
In front of them, all the rocks disappeared, a huge bottomless hole suddenly appeared in front of me, and a burst of wind blew through from below.
This pit is bottomless and goes straight down, as if extending all the way into the earth.
Everyone grabbed the edge of the cart tightly and looked out carefully.
If you accidentally fall from here, you will definitely fall to Reducto, even the corpse capital cannot be found.
Under the trolley, a narrow track extends forward at a weird angle.
The old wooden scaffolding up on the surrounding rough rock walls is their only support. The rusty track Scabbers is intricately intricate, extending densely from the cracks in the rock wall, seeing no end, sometimes intertwined with each other and quickly separated.
Ivan turned around and saw the place where they just came out, and in a blink of an eye, it also turned into a small crack, which was no different from the cracks everywhere on the rock wall.
He tried to remember the route, but found that it was impossible.
The route of the track is too complicated, and these cracks on the rock wall look exactly the same.
Even if someone can break in here and find treasure from deep underground, if they do n’t remember the road, I ’m afraid it ’s impossible to get out from here.
Ivan can be sure that if you accidentally enter the wrong rock crack, waiting for the intruder is definitely not as simple as going the wrong way.
The track winds down, and as everyone approaches the deepest part of the ground, the temperature of the wind blowing up from below becomes higher and higher, and it quickly becomes a rolling heat wave.
The roar is getting stronger and stronger, as if there are countless heads Dragon spitting fire upwards below.
Ivan looked out again, and he saw a round, red glowing object directly below them, as if it were a gate to the depths of hell.
He blinked his eyes, and after a few seconds, he realized what it was ...
It is magma in the deep crust! ! !
Under them, the endless underground magma, gurgling out with white gas, whispering, the magma below diffuses the shining red light around.
The amazing temperature of magma even turned the surrounding rocks into a reddish roast.
Several seconds later, the small cart stopped slowly on an irregular island in the center of red and black magma.
Everyone walked down, everyone was sweating, and there was red light on his face. They never thought that such a temperature would be felt in the cold winter.
In fact, no one has ever thought that this scene would be the deepest in the underground of Gringotts, which is a strong contrast to the prosperity above Diagon Alley.
Sirius is right. These Goblin(s)s are just crazy. They dig all the way down to the depths of the earth ’s crust. If something happens here that causes lava to explode, not only Diagon Alley, even the whole of London will be affected. The flames engulfed.
There are dozens of stone carvings on the island, all kinds of shapes, like the entrance to the vault.
Ivan feels a bit strange, because the shape of these statues looks very familiar, he must have seen it before.
He watched carefully for a while, and his mind flashed with light, only to find that these carvings were all the family emblems of the ancient pure-blooded wizard(s) families. There are many wizard(s) families that were prominent on the the history of magic thousands of years ago, but most of them are now extinct and only become the history of books.
"This is the earliest treasury built when Gringotts was founded. There are a hundred of them. They all belong to the most powerful wizard(s) or the strongest pure blood wizard(s) family at that time." Griphook explained, "Because it is too Ancient, many wizard(s) families have disappeared into the long river of history, and I have not been here for many years. "
This small island with carvings of emblems looks like a graveyard of pure-blood wizard(s) family.
The significance of these statues not only proves the past glory of these pure blood wizard(s) families, but also tells countless loneliness in silence. No matter how powerful and prominent they were, they no longer exist. The treasures stored in Gringotts will remain here forever.
Regardless of others, just looking at the emblems of these ancient wizard(s) families, this is definitely a holy place for magical history researcher(s) and heraldic lovers.
Ivan watched carefully and compared it with the emblem of wizard(s) in his mind.
After looking at it for a while, he found that it was exactly the same as Griphook said. These statues all have large number numbers, all within one hundred. Below the statue are gates of various shapes, and inside should be the vaults of these pure blood wizard(s) families.
There are several such irregularly shaped islands on magma not far away.
Like here, some islands are also filled with statues of varying sizes and sizes. Among them, Ivan saw the family emblem of the Slytherin family at a glance, because it was too conspicuous. The huge statue inlaid with many emeralds is emitting a soft green light outward, forming a capital S letter.
It is located on a small island in the center of the lava, which is unusually abrupt.
Ivan sees that the number above the S letter is the number one, which means it is the first vault of Gringotts.
Below the statue is a black gate with beautiful patterns. I do n’t know what metal it is made of. It looks very complicated.
Because it's too far away, Ivan doesn't look very real.
The patterns on the door seem to be the same as the unreadable lines on the Slytherin locket in their arms, they seem to be a whole ...
Ivan shook his head. I do n’t know what it means. Is it a special text left by the Slytherin family? !
He is going to go back and check the related books carefully. If it is not possible, he can also ask the girl named Elaine's Vampire(s).
Beside the Slytherin vault, Ivan also saw the sky blue coat of arms of the Ravenclaw family, which is very similar to the Ravenclaw House logo, but it is a little different. Carved by an eagle in the shape of an unknown plant, the eagle's head wears a crown of wisdom.
At the center of the crown, a bright diamond sparkles, and echoes it with a thick nebula at the top of the statue.
No one knows how many gems were used on this seemingly ordinary stone statue.
The huge diamond in the center of the crown alone is absolutely valuable. The family treasures hidden in it can be imagined how precious.
Unfortunately, the Ravenclaw family has no descendants. No matter what is in it, those things will always belong to Goblin(s) forever.
Ivan is here, and I searched carefully again.
I do n’t know why, he did n’t see the signs of the Gryffindor family and the Hufflepuff family. They do n’t seem to have set up a vault here. (To be continued.)
