"I'm going to die."

An old man with gray hair and a weathered face was sitting on the Iron Throne and whispering.

His body had suffered severe trauma, his left arm was no longer visible, half of his left leg was missing, half of it was cut from the middle, and he had half of his feet, calves, and thighs.

The cut section of the leg is covered with small thorns of rock that are as gray as rocks, some of which resemble barnacles at the bottom of a boat, densely rooted on them.

It's ugly and hideous, it's the scar left on him by the abyss.

But he at least came back alive and came home alive.

"I didn't want to lie down in the grave we had built together, so I built it for myself, and I dug my own grave on an island far from my homeland."

"But. I overestimated my energy. ”

The old man sighed softly, "I was bitten by the dog of the abyss, and it was really painful." ”

Speaking of this, the old man smiled with a complicated face, "If it weren't for the old guy who pushed me at the end, maybe I wouldn't have been able to come back." ”

"The life born from the condensation of the rules of the world, even if it is a mentally retarded beast, is not a character that can be easily dealt with, I am glad that we can kill it, otherwise after it is completely conceived, the breakthrough of the door is inevitable."

"At that time, even if we were still alive, we had to walk on the road of wandering, floating in the void with the last star core, and I don't know if we can find a new home."

"At least I still have a hometown to die in, don't I?"

He said to himself, his gaze not resting on the later visitors, even though he knew that when someone saw this photo, that person would definitely be there.

"It's a pity that I can't die outside, maybe it's because I hope to be reunited with my friends in the afterlife, even if I can't bear it when I remember the tragedy at that time, but I can't bear to die alone after leaving them."

"I hope that after me, there will be the birth of the Awakened, I know that we are just a tool hatched by the world to protect it, this is our mission and fate, the abyss has not been completely killed, then as a tool, we must still have the value of being needed."

"I hope my successors can have an easier life than us, as seniors, we have already dealt with most of the troubles for you, your life should be easier, right?"

"Even if we are born with the fate of being used as tools, we are human after all, and human beings need to have a human life."

"Look at this banquet."

The old man smiled, a nostalgic memory on his face.

"How lively, this is my event, in the castle of my hometown, we gather together and enjoy good wine and food."

"I was originally a prince, but when I returned from the abyss, I saw a devastated land, my father died hundreds of years ago, maybe this castle that withstood the war is the last memory of memories, but I can't remember what it looked like."

The old man spoke some small words, the expression on his face became softer and softer, and his voice became softer and softer.

"I should have left, gone to my old friends, and stayed with them, we used to be friends at banquets together, and the world after death may never taste the mellow wine and the sweetness of food, but if we are together, there is always a little less loneliness."

"Maybe someone will find it here."

The old man looked up and smiled in the direction of Harry and Fleur, "I'm sorry I didn't leave any treasures worth keeping, and all that remains is this unfinished town that doesn't need to be finished. ”

"It's probably a bit inappropriate to give away the cemetery, haha!"

He smiled, his expression much more active than before, "Although there are no precious possessions, there are some interesting gadgets. ”

"I hope you'll have fun with it, latecomers."

The old man stretched out his finger and tapped lightly on the Iron Throne, and the Black Iron Throne opened a portal, and I don't know where it leads.

"The magical enchantment is open to me."

After the old man's photo dissipated, Harry obviously felt the difference from before, the magic enchantment that had been vaguely suppressed by him was completely released, but it was not possible to control it, after all, this city was a half-finished tomb built by the old man himself, he didn't plan to give it away, there was no time to continue to improve, and there was no idea of continuing to build, and now, after a thousand years, this thing is a million-ton pure iron lump, which is worth the money to sell scrap iron, even if it is given, Harry doesn't like it very much.

But he was quite concerned about what the old man called 'funny gadgets'.

"That old man is the Awakened Wizard, isn't he?"

Fleur had a little curiosity on her face, although she knew that Harry too, but it was the first time she had seen such a photo from a thousand years ago.

"It's amazing!" She took Harry's arm and whispered, "If we leave a picture like this in the future, won't our great-great-great-grandchildren be able to see it?" ”

"Why great-great-great-great-grandchildren?" Harry looked down and sniffed the strands of hair on top of Fleur's head, bending slightly and tapping her forehead against hers.

"Because I asked Sister Daenerys, we can be together for a long, long, long time, so."

Fleur, who was around Harry's neck, jumped lightly, her slender and powerful legs wrapped around his waist, and the face-to-face gaze made the tight space between the two warm up slightly, and the girl's good body fragrance lingered on the tip of her nose.

The unfinished words seemed to be unnecessary, and they listened to each other's heartbeats, already understanding all the meaning.

After a moment's pause, the armrest of the Iron Throne was tapped with two fingers, and the iron-gray Awakened magic flicked the invisible switch.

The throne of black iron revealed countless separated gaps at this moment, and it quickly spliced together into a door, and the glimmer of magic rippled in the hollow portal, weaving into a scene of water waves.

This is a tomb that should have been pitch black, it is not empty, compared to the Black Iron City above, it is filled with the 'toys' that the unknown senior had prepared for himself.

Harry didn't know what the world after death was like, but the senior should have understood, unlike the ghosts who wandered in the world and were tormented between life and death, the world after death should be lonely, quiet, dark, and cold, and everything here was once a carefully presented toy that the senior was going to use to pass away the loneliness that would drive him crazy after death.

But this space is supposed to be dark, but it is brightly lit!

The flame of magic burns here, and the light that illuminates the face shines brightly!

Around a black iron giant that is more than 400 meters tall and needs to be looked up, the magic elevator that automatically lifts and lowers stands densely, and the busy crowd is trying to study the mysterious patterns all over the black iron giant's body.

A pale blue stream of magical light lit up the tens of thousands of square meters of ground, drawing a giant alchemy array of astonishing precision.

When two strange figures, a man and a woman, appeared from the sky and slowly descended towards the ground, countless eyes focused on them.

"Hand over your weapons! Hold your head in your hands! You have been arrested for trespassing into the secret research area of the Ministry of Magic! ”

"This is the Australian Federal Department of Magic."

Although the reaction seemed to be a beat slower, within two or three seconds of their arrival, a group of wizards under black pressure instantly surrounded them on high alert, their cold muzzles aimed at the heads of the two, and their fingers were already on the trigger.
