Chapter 338 The Story of Quirinaxillo (2)
“Master, I have already heard from the goblin that Dumbledore did place a valuable item in the underground vault No. 713!”
In the dark room, Quirrell was reporting the latest information to Voldemort, "According to the goblin, the underground vault No. 713 is a vault where valuables are stored. The door there has no key. No one can open the vault door except the goblin." , take away the items inside.”
The snake in front of Quirrell didn't react much. It seemed to be just a snake. He continued, "I have controlled the goblin, but I want to break into Gringotts..."
"Quirrell, I didn't spend so much time and energy on you just to hear these excuses from you!" A ferocious human face appeared on the snake's head. It was the face of Voldemort. Every time Voldemort does this Talk to him and the lives possessed by him will be greatly reduced.
“I’m sorry, Master.”
"What I need is for you to get the Philosopher's Stone as soon as possible, not your apology. I think you must have your own plan, right Quirrell!"
"Yes, Master, I already have my own plan. The goblin controlled by the Imperius Curse will open the door to the underground vault No. 713 for me." Quirrell whispered, "However, I haven't thought of how to do it yet. After grabbing the Philosopher's Stone, how to escape from the Gringotts goblins."
Actually, Quirrell is not very willing to break into Gringotts. Although Voldemort said that by getting the Philosopher's Stone and completely restoring his body, Quirrell would be given the honor and status he deserved. However, Quirrell still didn't have much confidence in breaking into Gringotts because he had never heard of a wizard who could successfully steal in Gringotts.
The thieves who were targeting Gringotts have all been trapped in the huge underground maze beneath Gringotts. There is no way to apparate in that hellish place.
Quirrell felt that he must be crazy, or Voldemort was crazy, to have the idea of robbing Gringotts. However, he also knew that the Dark Lord taught him those spell-casting skills and powerful dark magic just to let him bring the Sorcerer's Stone out of Gringotts.
If you fail, you will suffer terrible punishment.
Quirrell couldn't imagine what would happen to him if he failed, just like those wizards who had been possessed by the Dark Lord.
Not long ago, Quirrell once grabbed a wizard from an alley, let the Dark Lord possess him, and taught him magic and magical skills. However, he saw with his own eyes how Voldemort made the other person succumb and die.
All this made Quirrell's hair stand on end. He found that he seemed to have no power to resist. Even though the Dark Lord looked very weak, he was still strong.
"As long as you steal the magic stone, when I am completely resurrected, those goblins will be nothing at all."
"I will do it..." Quirrell whispered. At this time, there was a knock on the kitchen window glass, interrupting Quirrell's words. He opened the window and took the letter from the owl, which was from Hogwarts Magic. College invitation.
He quickly opened the letter and scanned the contents:
Principal Dumbledore formally invited him to Hogwarts, and brought him to familiarize himself with the castle, his colleagues and the upcoming teaching courses.
Quirrell closed the letter and took a deep breath. The meeting with Dumbledore was undoubtedly an opportunity, an opportunity to betray the Dark Lord. If the Dark Lord is left to Dumbledore, he believes that the greatest
A great wizard can definitely...
Now Quirrell is considered an excellent wizard. As long as he betrays the Dark Lord, he will be free!
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, Quirrell immediately put an end to the thoughts that had just stirred up.
He did not dare to think too much in front of Voldemort, as the other party could easily see through his thoughts.
"Dumbledore's invitation!" Quirrell said respectfully: "That person invited me to go to the school to familiarize myself with the next career as a professor."
"You want to hand me over to Dumbledore." Voldemort stared at Quirrell's face and suddenly said: "You learned spellcasting skills and a lot of dark magic from me, so you are going to abandon me?"
“No, I haven’t, master!” Quirrell said in panic.
"Lie, you are lying to me. That's what you were thinking just now, you wanted to hand me over to Dumbledore!" Voldemort's voice echoed in Quirrell's mind, "You want to use Dumbledore to get rid of me, you You are approaching me just because you want to learn black magic and spell-casting skills from me, right?"
"I don't mind if you do that, I won't mind, but do you think you can get rid of me?" Voldemort suddenly laughed, "In my current state, even Dumbledore can't kill me. There's nothing I can do, and he can't help you."
"No, Master, I have never thought of betraying you, never." Quirrell lowered his head deeply and said very respectfully.
"I don't care! But you have to remember that anyone who betrays me will pay the price!" Voldemort's voice echoed in Quirrell's ears.
The next day, Quirrell went to Hogwarts at the agreed time.
In front of the school gate, Quirrell saw the gamekeeper Hagrid waiting for him at the door.
Quirrell stepped forward, greeted Hagrid with a slight stutter, and shook hands with him.
Hagrid took him to the principal's office. Principal Dumbledore chatted with him about work for a while, talked about the benefits of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and personally took Quirrell around Hogwarts. , such as his Defense Against the Dark Arts office and the classroom used for future classes.
"You should familiarize yourself with your job first. After a while, I may need your help with something." Dumbledore said with a smile.
“I’m very happy to be able to help, it’s my honor!”
"By the way, Professor McGonagall asked me to tell you that I hope you can draft the books that will be used in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class as soon as possible so that you can send admission notices to students!"
"No-no problem, I will hand over the required list to Professor McGonagall soon." Quirrell nodded. He wanted to look more reliable, but his behavior was not very convincing.
After watching Dumbledore leave, Quirrell closed the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office and carefully checked every corner of the room to make sure that he was not being watched.
To be honest, this is unlikely.
Quirrell felt that his disguise was very successful. He always made himself look a little stuttering and nervous, and told Dumbledore some bad experiences during his travels, cleverly hiding it from Dumbledore.
