When he was diving in the deep sea, Elwyn had once heard the despicable Hyerbo's whispers.
He clearly remembered the words that Hyerbo had said. Those were words that were engraved in the depths of his soul.
"In the endless years, I have witnessed the rise and fall of empires, the birth and death of species. In the endless years, only the fascinating power and the stupidity of mortals are eternal and unchanging. Your appearance here proves this."
"When I was still a mortal, I once clearly saw the future. The whole world will turn into nothingness, but you can't wait for that day …"
"Death is not far away from you!"
"You think that death is the end, but that is only the beginning. After death, you will be fortunate enough to enter the world that I have created."
"Pitiful, pitiful, weak mortals. You can't understand it now, but when you walk alone in the darkness, you will understand. And at that time, I will taste your souls. It is so delicious … "
The scenes in the deep sea appeared in Elwyn's mind one after another.
He had previously thought that these were meaningless and crazy words, like the whispers of other evil gods. Their purpose was to break through people's psychological defenses and invade the spiritual world. They were good at using these crazy words to torture and lower people's minds.
Now it seemed that the situation was not entirely like that.
The words that despicable Hyerbo had said seemed to be related to his own real experience. There was a lot of useful information in it.
This evil Dark Wizard seemed to have done it on purpose.
An absurd thought came to Elwyn's mind. The despicable Hyerbo had deliberately lured them to the world that he had created …
Because they would have to experience death!
"You think that death is the end, but that is only the beginning. After death, you will be fortunate enough to enter the world that I have created …" Elwyn repeated this sentence in a low voice.
"That's right. The only way to enter that world is to die." Dumbledore followed, raising his voice slightly. "I can already feel the power that is calling me. It is getting closer and closer. That is the power of death. The Grim Reaper may come to welcome me at any time!"
"What?!" Elwyn and Harry both looked at Dumbledore in shock.
"I will die. The moment I used the Twin Snake Staff to destroy the despicable Hirpo's brain, this outcome was already determined. When that power arrives, I will leave this world and go to the world created by the despicable Hyerbo. "
"Professor …"
Dumbledore was really something, saying such terrifying words as if nothing had happened.
He would die! He died just like that?!
"Don't worry, Elwyn, Harry!" Dumbledore looked at Elwyn and Harry, who looked shocked. He smiled and continued, "Death is not scary. Moreover, this is not a real death, but a journey through space! What a rare spell! "
Using death to cast spells was indeed a rare sight …
Elwyn quickly organized his thoughts. The current situation was that they were going to enter the world created by the despicable Hirpo, and the way to enter that world was through the Twin Snake Staff and death. Dumbledore seemed to have made up his mind to go there, or rather, he had no choice but to go. He had no choice but to go through this journey through space and go to the boundless sea of stars. This was part of the magic of the Twin Snake Staff. The result was already determined when he used the Twin Snake Staff. The Grim Reaper was getting closer and closer to him, and it would take Dumbledore away.
"Professor, you will …" Elwyn paused for a moment before saying the difficult word, "die?!"
"Yes, I will die, but don't worry. After this journey is over, I will return." Dumbledore said, his voice calm as usual. "The power of the Twin Snake Staff and I have merged too deeply. They will follow the magic connection and enter the world created by the despicable Hirpo to find the soul of this dark wizard. This is part of the magic left by Salazar Slytherin. As the user of the Twin Snake Staff and the guide of the power, I must follow them there … "
"But …"
"Listen to me, Elwyn. This is very important. If I return, it means that I have succeeded. I will return with the secret key to Slytherin's treasure and the secret of the evil god. If I do not return after half a year, it means that I have failed. I did not defeat the soul of the despicable Hirpo. At that time, you and Harry must use the Twin Snake Staff to enter that world and continue to complete what I have failed to do. If you want to defeat the evil god and the Lord Voldemort, this is a challenge that you must complete. The challenge left by Salazar Slytherin. At the same time, this is also a journey where you can only move forward. There is no way back. "
Looking at Dumbledore, Elwyn nodded hesitantly.
"How long do you have before you leave this world?"
"The moment I used the Twin Snake Staff to complete the magic, I should have left. However, your magic book helped me, Elwyn. It gave me a chance. I am now using my magic to fight against the power of the Twin Snake Staff. When my magic is exhausted, I will leave." Dumbledore said weakly, "There's no specific time, but I believe it won't be too long. It won't be until dawn. After all, a wizard's magic can't compete with the power of this legendary magic item."
There was a moment of silence. This meant that Dumbledore's departure was inevitable.
"I still don't understand, Professor!" At this time, Harry panted and said, "This is such a dangerous thing, you … we have to go with you. We can't let you go to that world alone."
"No, Harry, there are more important things waiting for you to do." Dumbledore said gently and turned his head to look at Harry. "You and Elwyn, you have more important tasks on your shoulders. Now is not the time for you to welcome death. You have not received an invitation. Ordinary death will not bring you to the despicable world of Halbo. You need to find the mystery of death. When you find it, you will receive an invitation. Okay, now let's go back to school. Before I leave this world, I need to see Severus. I have something important to tell him. "
Harry seemed to want to say something, but he did not know what to say.
He looked at Elwyn, and Elwyn also did not know what to say.
The development of the matter was indeed rushed and unexpected. This was not something that could be persuaded to give up on Dumbledore.
