The surrounding scenery suddenly changed. One second we were in Hogwarts, and the next second we were in Gringotts in Diagon Alley.
Gringotts is a bank founded by goblins and is known as the best bank in the world.
One of Voldemort's Horcruxes, Hufflepuff's Golden Cup, is locked in Bellatrix's vault and is guarded by the goblins of Gringotts.
"Master, there is magic in Gringotts against elves, and Apparition cannot break through it." Looking at the bank door in front of him, Shining said weakly.
Wang Xu nodded slightly. The wizard's forbidden air magic was ineffective against elves. This allowed elves to use apparation to transfer even in Hogwarts, which did not allow apparation.
Gringotts is different. This is the World Bank. In terms of purely defensive magic, it is more stringent than Hogwarts.
In the first Harry Potter, Hagrid once said that Gringotts was second only to Hogwarts in terms of security, and that was because Hogwarts had Dumbledore in charge.
Except for Dumbledore, the master, Gringotts is even more rigorous than Hogwarts. After all, the nature of schools and banks are different.
"Wait for me outside." Wang Xu said as he walked towards the gate of Gringotts.
When I pushed the door open, there was no one in the hall, and all the exchange windows were closed.
Wang Xu looked around and saw no traces of fighting in the living room. It was obvious that the place where Dumbledore was ambushed was not outside.
"Hey, who asked you to come in? Gringotts is inspecting the equipment today. If you want to withdraw money, come back tomorrow." Hearing the door open, two uniformed security guards walked out from the back of the hall.
Wang Xu said nothing and continued to walk forward unhurriedly.
The two security guards looked at each other, took out their wands from their waists, and said, "Don't let me repeat it a third time. Please leave immediately."
"Whoosh!" Wang Xu waved his hand gently, and two fingers shot out.
In an instant, the expressions of the two security guards froze. Except for their eyes, which could still move, their whole bodies seemed to be under petrification magic, and their eyes were full of panic and confusion.
After sealing the two acupuncture points, Wang Xu walked inside without looking back.
The two security guards were not little dragon girls, and their acupuncture points were sealed. Could it be that there are still salty men who would molest them?
Passing through the hall of Gringotts, there is a downward tunnel going inside. In order to ensure the safety of the bank, the goblin used top-down deconstruction, and the building extended downward for hundreds of meters.
Wang Xu stood on it and looked down. At the bottom, there was light flashing.
More than twenty people holding magic wands were gathered back to back, resisting attacks from all directions.
At a glance, he recognized the following people: Arthur Wesley, Alastor Moody, Remus Lupin, Nymphadora Tonks, Kingsley Shacklebolt, Rubeus
Hagrid, and Dumbledore standing in the middle.
There were two groups of people fighting against the members of the Order of the Phoenix. One group was wearing black robes and masks, and the other group was wearing Gringotts security uniforms and led an attack by a group of goblins.
"Dumbledore, the greatest white wizard in the world. Even the goblin world has heard of your greatness, but you actually came to Gringotts and stole things that don't belong to you. You let me down so much."
"Mr. Caradoc, what I took away was Voldemort's Horcrux. I think you, who are very knowledgeable about magic, must understand what the Horcrux represents. If you don't destroy it, Voldemort will never die, and you are becoming
Voldemort's accomplice!"
"Haha, it's really funny. I don't care who Voldemort is. I just know that you tried to take things that belong to others from Gringotts's vault. This is absolutely not allowed by Gringotts."
The battle below was going on cracklingly, and while they were fighting, the two groups were still fighting at the same time.
The 23 members of the Order of the Phoenix were at a disadvantage under the attack from both sides. Each of them had to face several enemies. If Dumbledore hadn't been in the middle to socialize, they would have been defeated long ago.
But even with Dumbledore, the situation was not looking good.
There were more than thirty Death Eaters on the side, plus more than thirty security guards from Gringotts, and six or seven goblin supervisors. It seemed that Dumbledore's defeat was only a matter of time.
Moreover, Voldemort did not show up, and Dumbledore did not dare to use all his strength, and had to prepare for Voldemort's surprise attack.
After all, there were so many Death Eaters present, all wearing black robes and cloaks, that no one dared to say whether a seemingly ordinary Death Eater might be Voldemort in disguise.
"It seems that the Death Eaters are well prepared. Hufflepuff's golden cup is indeed a trap!" Wang Xu withdrew his gaze, touched the space ring in his hand, and a rocket launcher suddenly appeared in his hand.
Wang Xu carried the rocket launcher and took a look at the crowd below.
Below, the total number of people from the three parties was nearly a hundred, all crowded into an underground hall of less than 300 square meters for a melee, which looked like nothing more than a rocket.
I think if this cannonball is fired, he will be on the front page of the Daily Prophet tomorrow.
You know, the current elites in the British wizarding world are basically concentrated in the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters.
Many of these people who looked like little minions and were shouting and killing below were the heads of pure-blood families or serving officials of the Ministry of Magic.
If these people died on the same day, half of the wizarding world would have to hang up white lanterns. Just like Bellatrix was Sirius' cousin, many of them were related to each other and would have companions on the road to death.
"No, you can't use rocket launchers. Dumbledore is still useful to me, but you can't kill this old bee." Wang Xu took back the rocket launcher and replaced it with a more civilized weapon, the Barrett sniper rifle.
Barrett sniper rifle, made in the United States, has an effective range of 3,000 meters. The highest actual combat record is that of Australia. Two snipers of the 2nd Special Commando Regiment in Uruzgan Province, Afghanistan, in 2012, from a distance of 2,815 meters.
Killed a Taliban commander with an M82A1.
Wang Xu, who squatted down slightly and was not afraid of the recoil, just squatted on the ground and lifted Barrett up, looking for his prey through the sniper scope.
Two seconds later, Wang Xu locked the sniper scope on a fat, masked Death Eater and gently pulled the trigger.
puff!!
The Barrett is a large-caliber sniper rifle. Even with a silencer, its sound is not much quieter.
Fortunately, there was a battle going on below, and the various magics worked together to cover up the sound of the gunfire very well.
Bang!
With the sound of gunfire, the entire upper body of the Death Eater who was waving his wand to fight Lupine exploded, like a blown balloon.
Lupine, who was fighting with him, had a somewhat stunned expression on his face, as if he was still thinking about how his opponent died.
Wang Xu saw Lu Ping's shock through the sniper scope, smiled nonchalantly, and quickly started looking for the second target.
For the second target, he chose a thin man. This thin man was obviously not very strong. He and his two companions worked together to fight against Moody. The three of them together could only barely deal with Moody.
"It's you!" Wang Xu licked the corner of his mouth and locked the position of the crosshair on the opponent's chest.
There is no need to aim at the head when using the Barrett sniper rifle. Its bullet is 12.8 centimeters long. If it hits any part of the body, the target will be killed.
Pulling the trigger lightly, under the witness of Wang Xu, the thin Death Eater was directly beaten into two pieces.
The armor on his body only lasted for a moment before it was broken, and because the three of them stood together, after the bullet pierced the first Death Eater, it continued to fly away the other two.
"Yes, plus three points!" The smile on Wang Xu's face became even stronger. He hadn't shot a turkey so happily in a long time.
In the blink of an eye, four Death Eaters died in succession, and the remaining people also noticed something was wrong.
It's a pity that most of these Death Eaters come from pure-blood families, believe in the concept of wizard supremacy, have basically no contact with Muggles from the outside world, and have no idea what a sniper rifle is.
Looking at the bodies of their companions that were beaten into two pieces, these people thought it was the enemy's magical power exerting its power. They roared one after another, and the attacks on their hands became more violent.
