After being helped by Hermione to sit up, Ryan found that there was gray fog all around, only the place where he and Hermione were now had no fog, as if a hemispherical shield had enveloped the two of them.

"I saw you conjure a gray flame just now, and then the flame grew bigger and bigger under the influence of your spell and enveloped the two of us. Then the gray flame disappeared and we appeared here. Hermione gave a brief account of what had just happened, but she was also confused about the situation.

"I guess I know what's going on. After sitting for a moment, feeling that he was almost recovered, Ryan helped Hermione to her feet, and then held her hand with the ring and used the power of the ring to circle the two of them. A gray mist similar to the surrounding one emerges from the wand's head and haunts the surrounding sea of gray mist.

As he cast his magic, the fog around him suddenly lightened a lot. Hermione was shocked to find that they were now in a foggy temple with a hard, iron-gray floor!

Hermione took two gentle steps forward, and from the touch of her feet she could feel that the ground was very solid, like real stone. Scanning her surroundings, a gray-black mist enveloped everything she could see. She couldn't see anything but fog except the temple she was in, as if it were a land of mist.

Hermione turned to look at Ryan, but Ryan couldn't figure out what was going on. He had just tried to communicate with his surroundings with the life magic and the death-related part of the Maoshan Dao Technique, and he had received a response, and now being in this hall was the best proof of this. But he didn't see anything to communicate with.

Because Ryan couldn't find anyone to communicate with, such as the Grim Reaper who lived in the world of death according to the legend of wizards. In desperation, he could only look around, only to find that everything around him was illusory, only the floor under his feet was solid.

He fell to one knee and surveyed the ground through the faint mist. Hermione quietly walked over to him and stood there, warily observing her surroundings.

After opening the Yin and Yang Eyes, Ryan found that the gray floor tiles on the ground were not the plain floor tiles he had imagined before, and there were a few portraits on each floor tile. Men, women, the elderly, the young, and even some who are not human, such as Ryan, who saw an image that was clearly a horse man.

Each of the portraits on the bricks is depicted in a simple, even rudimentary, but these portraits are portrayed with an extremely vivid feeling, as if they have life.

Something immediately occurred to Ryan as soon as the thought came to mind, and he reached out and touched a floor tile with a painting of a centaur.

Images appeared in Ryan's mind in an instant: croaking on the ground in a tall wooden house, learning to stand on four legs as a child. As a young man, he found his sweetheart and became a hunter in the tribe. The birth and growth of the child, as well as the death of his lover when his temples were like frost, caused a huge blow to his soul, and accidentally contracted the wind cold, so that the old horse man closed his eyes forever in his house.

The images passed through Ryan's mind so fast that he didn't have time to see the details. Still, he learned about the life of an old horse man and what the bricks represented.

Souls, the souls of those who have died. Ryan thought about it and touched a few more bricks, which would also bring up memories of the dead in Ryan's mind. Some of them died like the old horses, some died of murder, some died of accidents, and some died of the plague.

But regardless of gender, age, race, and method of death. The only thing they have in common is that they are both dead.

For coming to this mysterious place, if it is usual, Ryan will naturally be very happy. Being able to get up close and personal with the rules of death in this way was actually very beneficial for him to master the rules himself. But now that Hermione was around, Ryan just wanted to get out as quickly as possible. Even if the Unquenchable Fire provides adequate defense, the ubiquitous rules of death around it will still affect the two living people.

The unquenchable fire did prevent the penetration of the power of death, but what Ryan didn't expect was that under the premise that the rules of death were all around, living people would be infected by the rules of death as long as they saw, heard, and even perceived. Ryan wasn't affected much, even if he only had a preliminary understanding of the power of the rules, he had the ability to remove this little bit of the influence of the death rules on himself, but Hermione was different.

"Isn't it true that wizards have always been rumored to have a Grim Reaper, and where is he now?" Ryan thought anxiously, because at this time he noticed that Hermione's aura began to seep with a faint, full of silence, and the look in his eyes began to become a little dull.

Suddenly he had an epiphany, stood up, folded his hands and began to pray to death in his heart. Sure enough, it wasn't long before the gray mist condensed in front of him. First the hair, then the head, then the neck, and the shoulders all the way down. The surrounding fog sank into the human form composed of the mist in front of him one by one, as if human flesh and bones constituted a human body.

Eventually, the fog in the hall disappeared completely, and a man stood in front of Ryan and Hermione. This is a very good-looking girl, who looks like a Eurasian half-breed, but if you look closely, you can see that this is the beautiful Lane.

This shouldn't be what the Grim Reaper really looks like, Ryan just thought of this, and the girl opposite spoke, and an indescribably deep voice echoed through the hall.

"This body was only created to facilitate communication with you, and I know that intelligent beings tend to like to communicate with the opposite sex, so I created this image in the image of the communicator. ”

"Are you the Grim Reaper?" asked Ryan with some hesitation, having no idea that there were gods in the world of Harry Potter.

"No, I'm just the Grim Reaper in your mind's imagination, just like everything around you. But in this place, fantasy and reality can be interchanged. The girl on the other side said that Ryan only then realized that everything around him had frozen, as if it had been embedded in a huge piece of amber.

After asking a few questions, Ryan discovers that the Grim Reaper in front of him is not some kind of god with a self-personality, but just a set up system that only reacts to certain questions.

This shows that there is no personified god in this world, and the so-called Grim Reaper is only a synonym after the embodiment of these death rules. The Deathly Hallows Trio is likely to be a magic item made by a powerful wizard after mastering the rules of death, and the claim that collecting the Deathly Hallows can conquer death should refer to the knowledge of the rules of death from the Deathly Hallows.

Thinking of this, Ryan said bluntly, "I want to leave here with my companions, what should I do?"

"Just pay the price. The Grim Reaper in front of him said unexpectedly. "It's just that your price is much higher than that of your companion, after all, you have touched the edge of the rules, and she is just an ordinary wizard. ”

"Can you tell me what the price is?" Ryan asked.

"Your companion only needs to be the equivalent of a life, and you need something that contains the rules of life. The Grim Reaper on the other side said expressionlessly. "And these things can't come from other worlds. ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the Grim Reaper in front of him was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then said to Ryan: "You only need one thing that can contain the rules of life, because your companion chose to use a life force as a bargaining chip to entrust everything she has to you, and now in my eyes you can be regarded as one." ”

At this point, the Grim Reaper said, "Since your companion has given more than she has prayed for, I will provide you with all the things you need, except for life itself." ”

With that, the Grim Reaper nodded and disappeared, and everything around him resumed flowing. Only one balance remained in place, one end of the sky raised high in the air, while the other end was a small gray translucent ball. Through the ball, Ryan could see the phantom of himself and Hermione inside, and it seemed that the Grim Reaper meant that as long as he balanced himself on both sides, he could get out.
