The years of welding at Hogwarts

The amount of wealth stored in the bank is directly linked to the value of the property.
To put it in more understandable terms, the deeper the vault is underground, the more money is hidden inside.
As one of the twenty-eight sacred families, the Lestrange family has accumulated wealth from generation to generation over hundreds and thousands of years, which can be said to have reached a rather astonishing level.
There are only a few families in the British wizarding world that can compete with it in financial strength.
Black, Malfoy, Gaunt before he fell, Dumbledore at the peak of his fame, and Fudge who had been a minister for only a few years but made a fortune...
The ownership of the dozen or so vaults deepest under Gringotts belongs to the wealthy people in the wizarding world.
The safety of these vaults is not only related to the money bags of those big families, but also to the face and reputation of Gringotts.
The reason why Gringotts has become the most powerful financial institution in the wizarding world is inseparable from the trust of wizards. What are the three most important factors in gaining the trust of depositors?
Safety!
Safety!
Still damn safe!
If Noah wanted to rob Gringotts, he would have to face the long journey from the surface to the vault and the various means the goblins would use to guard the vault.
Firstly, in order to prevent a large number of wizards with ulterior motives from entering Gringotts’ basement at the same time, the goblins had imposed sufficiently strict restrictions on the number of people entering the vault.
If Noah wanted to gather enough people to sneak into the caves under Gringotts, this would be the first hurdle he had to face.
As for hiding the accomplices in a small suitcase cast with a traceless extension charm, like the suitcase that old man Newt put in which was an entire magical zoo, that was an impossible thing to do.
Gringotts has strict restrictions on all magical items that can cast the Untraceable Extension Charm.
Just like one has to deposit one's backpack in a locker outside a supermarket before entering it, suitcases and handbags whose internal space has been widened by the Traceless Extension Charm can only be stored in the lobby of Gringotts on the surface.
Even if Noah secretly brought one in without being seen by the goblins, they would be exposed by the magic detection scan when they stepped into the cave, so this was a rather stupid method.
As for transporting personnel through the portal...
Noah had tried it before, but the restrictions on space teleportation in Gringotts' underground were no weaker than those in Hogwarts. Magic like the portal, which did not belong to this world, was ineffective in the face of Gringotts' powerful restrictions.
If he had mastered the mirror space, he might be able to lead a large group of people to sneak into the vault directly from the mirror space and empty the entire Gringotts.
Unfortunately, Noah doesn't.
For the real world, the mirror space is not just another opposite of the real world, but a reflection from a higher dimension.
I don't know if this thing needs additional adjustments because it is in a different world, such as positioning or something.
It's just like when Noah first came to this world, he couldn't cast the spells of Kamar-Taj, until the appearance of Dumbledore made him realize that this is the world of Harry Potter, and then he fine-tuned the spells of Kamar-Taj, and was able to wield swords and shields by hand.
Anyway, Noah just used the mirror space according to Ancient One's instructions, but there was no reaction at all.
If he is given some time to study, perhaps he will be able to figure out how to adjust the magic so that he can enter the mirror space.
But now they want to take advantage of the chaos in the wizarding world to make the world even worse.
So for now, he doesn't have that much time to tinker with this thing.
Manpower is just the first problem Noah and his team have to face.
After entering the basement of Gringotts, they had to go through the thief-proof waterfall that could eliminate any magic, and...
Oh, by the way, the fire dragon that was imprisoned underground by the goblins to guard the vault was actually the easiest obstacle for Noah and his crew.
What the fuck is a fire dragon?
No matter how thick its skin is, can it block the sword of Gryffindor in Fawkes' hand?
After the fire dragon, Noah and his companions will face the last defense of the vault——
The vault door.
Unlike those shallow vaults that can be blasted open with blasting spells, the vaults that can be placed in the deepest part of the ground are made of the best magical metals.
The defensive magic drawn on the gate is the wisdom of the fairy civilization. Connecting to the magic source deep underground can allow the magic runes engraved on the gate to obtain a constant supply of magic.
Not only the door itself, but also the walls around the vault were connected together by magic to form a complete whole.
This makes it almost impossible to break into the vault by force. The only way to open the door is to use the vault key and the goblins' secret magic.
The restriction rooted in the deepest part of the elves' bloodline made it almost impossible for them to be controlled by the Imperius Curse and cast esoteric magic when the door was opened involuntarily.
If they did so, they would self-destruct under the effect of the ban before they could cast any magic.
As for the key to the vault, if Noah was so powerful that he could get the keys to the vaults of dozens of families, would he still need to rob them?
Just walk in and take the money!
However, there is no such thing as an impenetrable defense in this world. At least with the ability of the goblins, it is impossible to set up a defense that even Noah cannot break through.
For Noah, it just takes a little longer.
But this is where the problem lies.
A violent attack would inevitably trigger Gringotts' alarm system. Within two minutes after the alarm was triggered, Gringotts alone would be able to gather a security team of at least thirty people to arrive at the vault.
But this guard team is just the vanguard.
After that, fighters with powerful magical powers among the fairy tribe will also be dispatched, and teams of different strengths and numbers will be sent out according to the critical situation of the vault.
Next came the strike force and Auror force sent by the Ministry of Magic after receiving the alarm.
In no more than ten minutes, a team of more than three hundred people would be able to reach the deepest part of Gringotts underground, and this was not even the full strength of Gringotts and the Ministry of Magic.
If they come out in full force, it is not impossible to form a force of more than 500 people.
Moreover, everyone in this team is not a useless person who is called a wizard but is actually a dud and cannot even cast the Armor Spell. The weakest among them is only at the level of a striker.
The Strikers are a force under the Department of Magical Law Enforcement that is specifically responsible for arresting dangerous criminals. Although their functions seem to overlap a lot with those of Aurors, the Strikers are more inclined towards armed combat.
If Aurors are the detectives in the Ministry of Magic, mainly engaged in criminal investigation work and more inclined to analyze and study criminal crimes; then Striker is the special police, whose main tasks are counter-terrorism, arresting criminals with powerful firepower, rescuing hostages and other operations, and they have more powerful firepower and weapons than Aurors.
Wizards who want to become strikers must obtain at least five certificates in the OWLs exam, and one of them is Defense against the Dark Arts.
Even a legendary wizard like Grindelwald, who is at the level of the Demon King, can only fight against one or two hundred Auror-level enemies without being at a disadvantage.
Five hundred Aurors and smiter-level wizards...
Or Noah should ask Fox to help find where the damn old Bee Dump is hiding, and invite him to come out again in the name of finding Voldemort's Horcruxes to help rob Gringotts.
Even if they took the equipment into consideration, the vibranium armor sponsored by Stacy Industries would allow them to ignore most of the wizards' spell attacks, but how would they transport these things out of the deepest part of Gringotts?
Judging from the information provided by Noah, the long journey from the surface to the vault spans at least tens of kilometers.
Because magic is irrational, the fairies can do whatever they want when digging underground spaces.
They don't have to consider at all whether there is air underground that people rely on for survival, or whether going too deep underground will cause the temperature of the environment to rise to an unbearable level.
Therefore, the underground space of Gringotts is unimaginably vast.
During this long enough journey, the greedy goblins in Gringotts could easily set up countless crazy defensive magic and traps.
Even if their vibranium suits can fly at a speed of Mach 2, they may not be able to take them out of the layers of magic set up by these goblins.
Not to mention that the Lestrange family vault was just one of Noah's targets for this standard mission at Gringotts.
Yes, it is one of them.
In Noah's plan, the Horcrux belonging to Voldemort hidden in the Lestrange family vault was always just a convenient step in the operation.
Since we are here now, we have to go through a great deal of trouble. If we spend so much effort, we will just take a Horcrux back. Even though this Horcrux is a relic left behind by Hufflepuff, one of the four founders of Hogwarts, its value is just that.
When the gold cup was created by Helga Hufflepuff, its purpose was planned by her -
Used to help the house-elves in Hogwarts transport magical food.
In other words, this thing is actually a vegetable jar, but the material is a bit luxurious. It is made of pure gold and has exquisite carvings representing Hufflepuff on it.
If we ignore its function, it would be worth at least four-digit gold Galleons if sold simply as an antique.
After all, it was an ancient relic from the Big Four era, not one of those last week knockoffs sold in Knockturn Alley.
Just want to send Lord Shafulin away for thousands of gold galleons?
Do you really think that Lord Shafulin is a beggar?
Either do nothing, or do something big.
There are more than ten vaults at the bottom of Gringotts. Uncle Shafulin simply waved his hand, indicating that all the vaults would become theirs.
However, the biggest problem is how to transport all the contents of these vaults out.
Lord Shafulin said that they could use their extremely powerful strength to rush through the difficulties ahead.

Without any space storage props and Noah's storage array not being able to be opened, they can't just rely on manpower to move everything bit by bit, right?
Gwen stared at the parchment in front of her for a long time, her mind working rapidly.
Since it is difficult to attack Gringotts' vault from the surface, why don't they try another angle and try to break through Gringotts' defenses from below?
Do you know about the shield machine with vibranium drill?
There is no need to consider the terrain and soil quality, nor the subsequent tunnel reinforcement...
All of that can be done by magic.
The only thing they had to do was to dig hard, digging several kilometers or even dozens of kilometers a day.
"Perhaps, we can try to dig a tunnel to reach the vault directly from below, and then transport the contents of the vault out through the tunnel?"

Gwen's suggestion immediately made Noah's eyes light up.
But then, he began to scan the little spider who was known as New York City's good neighbor with a suspicious look.
"No, Gwen, why are you so skilled?"
Being stared at by Noah as if he had found a kindred spirit, Gwen's cheeks soon turned red, not out of shyness, but out of anger after being questioned.
"Who do you take me for?"
Gwen yelled, "My father is the Commissioner of the New York Police Department! As his daughter! Do I look like someone who would rob a bank?!"
Noah turned his head and looked around. "Who is it? Whose father is the Commissioner of the New York Police Department?"
His movements were as exaggerated as his expression. "I see only five bandits plotting to rob a bank. There is no such thing as the daughter of the police chief."
Without caring about the fake friendship between her and Gwen, Shirley burst out laughing. That arrogant smile was quite similar to that of Draco and Noah, the two laughing heroes of Slytherin.
But her laughter was obviously not as sarcastic as Fox's noisy duck voice.
Amid the two girls' undisguised harsh laughter, Gwen's fair face was turning into the reincarnation of Guan Wusheng, with red from her neck to the tips of her ears.
It was purely out of anger.
"How does the saying go?"
Noah shrugged his shoulders, "The greater the ability, the more you grab, and the longer the sentence."
Although she didn't know what was so funny about Noah's words, Fox, who particularly enjoyed seeing people embarrassed, knew that the louder she laughed, the more embarrassed the little spider would be.
And she will be happier.
There are many kinds of happiness, but only the happiness built on the pain of others is the most pleasant kind.
Fox, still holding on to the rice bowl, couldn't even take care of the most important thing in her life, which was eating.
"Quack, quack, quack!"
Gwen, who was so angry, smashed Noah's head with a strong skull-cracking blow, "Shut up!"
Covering the big bump on his head, Noah wisely chose to shut his mouth.
Ever since he taught this little spider on the brink of evil the technique of using magic to increase its own strength, this little spider, which already had a punching force of dozens of tons, has made rapid progress in the direction of becoming an inhuman.
If it weren't for the fact that Spider-Man's figure was indeed a little ordinary, with her super-strong power of a hundred tons of force in one punch and her dazzling golden hair, she would definitely be one of the three wizards of the Hogwarts Wizarding Village in the future.
Noah thought it would be better not to jump as much as he did when facing Snape, facing the bully Stacy who could pin him down and rub him with just her body strength.
rbq,rbq.
There was a commotion at the dinner table before it quieted down again.
With one hand on the table, Snape said slowly, "It's not easy to hide the noise made by digging a tunnel from the goblins in Gringotts."
"We can think of a way to dig a tunnel, but others who are planning to attack Gringotts can't think of it? Can't those goblins think of it?"
