The group arrived at the bottom of the marble staircase leading to the tall bronze door. There were already some changes here, the two uniformed fairies that usually guarded the entrance were replaced by two wizards from the new Ministry of Magic. Each of them held a long and thin metal rod in their hands.
There were a few wizards queuing up for inspection, waiting to enter Gringotts.
"Honesty Probe!" Elwyn said in a low voice, slowing down his footsteps, "I didn't expect them to install this."
"What is this thing?" Elaine asked.
"It's a device that can detect hidden spells and magic items.
"How do you use this? Do you insert the metal rod from below? "Elaine's voice carried a hint of ridicule.
"No, Elaine, that's what the metal rod is used for when doing other things. It's just that there's no need to insert it in. They only need to move the probe around your body once, and they'll be able to detect if you have hidden spells or if you have dishonest thoughts. This device is ineffective against compound decoctions, if the brain sealing spell is good enough, it won't be able to detect anything. "Elwyn said," But just to be on the safe side, it's best if we use a little trick. Hermione, do you have the confidence to use a confusion incantation on them? "
"No problem!" Hermione replied. She followed behind Elwyn as she drew her wand from her pocket and aimed it at the two guards outside Gringotts. "Confusion!"
After being hit by the incantation, the two guards were stunned for a moment.
"Beautiful, Hermione, an excellent confusion incantation. Many wizards can't achieve such perfection!" Elwyn praised, stepping onto the last step.
He didn't stop at the entrance, and directly entered Gringotts.
"Sorry, sir!" One of the guards raised his long and thin metal rod.
"You've already completed the inspection!" Elwyn looked down from above, using Rodolphus Lestrange's arrogant voice and said, "Or do you think that me and my brother, the most loyal servants of the The Dark Lord, need to undergo an additional inspection to enter Gringotts?"
"No, of course not … …" The guard frantically explained. He seemed to be confused, lowering his head to look at the long and thin metal rod in his hand, and then looked at his equally dizzy colleague.
"Yes, you've already inspected them!" That person said, "Sir Lestrange, you may enter."
"I have my doubts about your attitude, I will personally speak to the minister about this … …" Elwyn didn't let the two of them off. He let Harry go first, but he didn't enter immediately. Instead, he paused at the entrance, buying time for Hermione and Elaine to pass. "The Ministry of Magic didn't send you here to … …"
"What's the matter, what happened, Rodolphus, did these two scum make you angry?"
At this moment, a cold female voice sounded from behind Elwyn.
Elwyn turned around, his heart thumping fiercely. He saw a pale and arrogant Bellatrix walking slowly towards him along the marble stairs. Behind her, a house-elf struggled to keep up with her footsteps with a long sword.
This is … … Gryffindor's sword!
But it was a fake, because Elwyn didn't feel the unique violent magical power of the cyclops from the scabbard.
He swept a glance at the fake sword, then shifted his gaze back to Bellatrix.
Elwyn opened his mouth, unsure how to address Bellatrix who suddenly appeared.
Damn it, why did this family appear!!!
Should Elwyn call her by her name, or a nickname like 'darling'?
His current identity was Bellatrix's husband, so it was natural to address her intimately right?!
For the same reason, shouldn't he kiss Bellatrix?!
But according to Elwyn's understanding, Rodolphus and Bellatrix's relationship seemed to be ordinary, in actual fact it only existed in name. He probably didn't need him to take the risk to do any intimate actions!
Both of them were originally a familial marriage, they didn't have any emotional foundation. Furthermore, the long Azkaban imprisonment didn't allow them to have any substantial contact. Furthermore, Bellatrix's fanatical worship of Lord Voldemort made it so that no other man existed in her eyes. The existence of Lord Voldemort's daughter was enough to prove her relationship with Rodolphus!
But it was still terrible to meet Bellatrix here. It was too terrible.
Elwyn didn't expect to bump into Bellatrix at the entrance of Gringotts. Behind him, Harry, Hermione and Elaine who were about to enter Gringotts also stopped, worriedly looking at Elwyn and Bellatrix.
"Some trash are like this, they still haven't learned to accept reality. There are too many muddy creatures on this street, we should clean them up as soon as possible." Bellatrix said in a condescending tone. She came to Elwyn's side, raised her wand and aimed at the two guards. "As for you two, disrespecting the servants of the Dark Lord is disrespecting the Dark Lord. Therefore, Drill Carpal Bones! "
The guards instantly let out terrifying screams, they fell to the ground and trembled violently.
Bellatrix laughed contentedly as the guards screamed at the top of their lungs.
"That's enough, Bella!" Elwyn couldn't stand it anymore, he waved Rodolphus' wand and stopped the magic. The two guards lay on the ground panting, because of the intense pain, they were half dead.
"They didn't disrespect me, just …"
"Too weak, Rodolphus, you seem to be afraid? How embarrassing, you've always been like this. I've reminded you many times, maybe you think it doesn't matter because the Lestrange family's reputation is worthless. But don't forget your identity, we are Death Eaters, the most trusted servants of the Dark Lord. Only by performing better, can you receive his honor. " Bellatrix suddenly stopped, her face suddenly moved closer to Elwyn, "Wait, you look a bit strange?"
"Really? Maybe I'm tired, I didn't rest well last night, you know. " Elwyn moved closer again, he looked into Bellatrix's eyes, and began to use the Soul Snatch Curse and Mind Extraction. Elwyn wasn't very good at using these two spells, he didn't dare to directly control her, nor did he dare to go too deep into her mind, but he could still give her some misdirection and hints. "I didn't sleep well last night, I'm too tired …"
"Idiot, stay away from me, you're making me uncomfortable!" Bellatrix screamed, "Those trash will associate your performance with mine, your and your brother's stupid actions will drag me down, just like the arrogant Malfoy's recent unforgivable failures. The Dark Lord is starting to be disappointed in us. This morning, that old woman he brought back from Germany actually dared to order me around. We have to do something to win back his trust! I heard that you've received information on the whereabouts of Mason and Potter? A guy who claims to be from the Bulstrode family saw them? "
