Hogwarts: Harry Potter and the Glock 18

Chapter 317 The City of Black Iron (1)

The sun 'set' from the east.

It was not yet twelve o'clock in the afternoon when they set off, but the weather had begun to change gradually.

It only takes an hour to circle the earth at a speed of Mach 30. Although Thor did not maintain this speed for a long time, it flew freely in the sky for a long time.

After crossing several or even ten time zones, they witnessed the sun 'set' and the starry night fall.

"Where are we?"

Looking at the pitch black area below, Fleur adjusted her posture uncomfortably and got closer to Harry.

"There's no signal here, and there's no magic net. It's better for Muggles. At least there is satellite positioning that can be used, but there is land below. Thor won't throw us down if he doesn't see the ground."

"But it's getting dark now, and we are either in East Asia, Southeast Asia, or Australia."

"I hope it's not the latter one. The place where prisoners are exiled is too unlucky."

Hearing what Harry said, Fleur burst out laughing, but speaking of it, this thing was really used for this purpose hundreds of years ago.

"Then if we really get there, will there be any pirates or robbers? Or primitive cannibals?" Fleur grabbed Harry's arm and pretended to be timid.

"Huh?" Harry was stunned after hearing this. "Pirates and robbers are possible, but the primitive tribe. The local aborigines have long been slaughtered by the descendants of the prisoners. The people in this place are not the same as Angsa bastards." Yes, we don’t know yet. Not only Australia, but also the Americas are still at war, but the indigenous wizards in the Americas are better than here and there are more people.”

Harry shrugged, but it was too dark and Fleur couldn't see it. However, Harry felt Fleur's dullness, and immediately came to his senses. He knew that what he said without thinking was a bit disturbing, but the real story was somewhat bloody. .

"Don't think about it. Those gangs of prisoners are from my country, England. The Hundred Years' War between England and France, don't put any psychological burden on yourself."

Interrupted by Harry, Fleur hit him angrily, pursed her lips and complained: "Yes, in terms of being impersonal, you England is indeed far ahead."

"Ha~" Harry snorted disdainfully, "What does what that English bastard does have to do with me?"

"With black hair and black eyes, I am the Roman orthodoxy. I remember back in the day, whether you were Germanic, Celtic or Slavic, you barbarians had to farm and work for me, Roman citizens."

! ! !

Fleur was so angry at these words that she wrapped herself around Harry with a naked twist. Her amazing body flexibility and strong core strength allowed her to easily transform into a beautiful snake. However...

Fleur tried her best, she tried her best again, and finally found that she couldn't seem to break Harry's nearly half-ton inhuman body, even if Harry didn't resist.

But the voice that sounded next to his ears made Harry laugh and apologize again and again.

"Who will wash the dishes next?"

"Me, me, it has to be me."

"Cooking?"

"Without a doubt, it must be me too."

"From now on, you will be responsible for being as beautiful as a flower." Harry patted his chest and said, "I am responsible for making money to support the family. That's it - eh! Look below, there is a city there!"

Fleur, who was lying on Harry's back, looked in the direction of Harry's finger. There was no city in the dark land, and not even a single light could be seen.

"Is there any?" She asked doubtfully, reaching out and rubbing her eyes. Although Fleur could not see the night as day, her eyesight was better than that of normal people. The stars were bright today, the moon was high, and the visibility was very poor. Not low.

"Such a big city," Harry paused mid-sentence, "If it were really a city, there wouldn't be any lights at all."

Although I had some doubts that I had seen it wrong, the things I saw in my eyes would not disappear no matter how hard I rubbed them. As the altitude dropped, the dead town became clearer and clearer.

"The architectural style is not modern. It is not a Muggle city. Could it be some kind of wizard market? Or simply the Ministry of Magic? This level is really not low. It is several times bigger than Hogwarts, but the aesthetics are really bad. Oh, after all, Hogwarts still has bright windows, but why is it so dark down here, a black iron fortress?"

"But I really didn't see anything, Harry!"

Fleur, who thought Harry was teasing her, patted Harry on the back angrily. No matter how hard she tried to look, she still couldn't see any shadow of the small town.

"Can't you see Furong?"

Seeing the two of them getting closer and closer to the city, Harry couldn't help but feel a little confused.

But it can be said that the skilled man is bold, and the young man is also the most curious. After a brief discussion, the two of them adjusted their direction of descent and landed over the dark town.

For the sake of Fleur's safety, Harry asked her to lie on his back and used a slowing spell to reduce the speed of his free fall. The originally planned high-altitude skydiving could only be slowed down at this time. Anyway, Thor was here, so what were he thinking? Go whenever you want.

Less than a kilometer away from the small town, Harry could already observe all the details of the small town very clearly, including the details of the streets on the ground. His eyes were sharper than those of a hawk, enough to ignore the interference of the night and the distance. shackles.

"Isn't this a ghost town?"

When he saw the desolate and silent place, Harry couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise, "There is something wrong with this city! This is definitely a city left by wizards! But there is no one, or even no trace of life activity at all. !”

"Let's go. Let's go to the outside first. We can't go in directly."

If Harry were alone, he would probably just go for it, but with Fleur by his side, he didn't want to risk it.

The clothes on Harry's back were tightened a little, but just as they were about to leave the small town immediately, a slight coolness that seemed to pass through a curtain of water made Harry shiver slightly.

"What kind of rich man is this?! The magic barrier covers a height of more than 800 meters? Even Hogwarts is not that rich, okay!"

Harry cursed with a dark face. It was not difficult to maintain a magical protective barrier, but the problem was that this small town with an area of ​​almost four or five Hogwarts actually extended the magical protective barrier. Eight hundred meters away, even if Hogwarts has a high-quality magic-rich place like the Dark Forest, it would be a bit difficult for it to maintain such a large-scale magic protection. Most of these magic barriers are spherical structures deep underground. Every time it extends one meter further, the additional magic power consumed has to go up a level.

Magic barrier doesn't mean it's powerful, but it definitely means it's expensive.

But in terms of physical sense, when Harry passed through this barrier, the intensity of the magic he felt was definitely not low, no weaker than the defensive barrier at Hogwarts, but it did not activate something like 'Intruder Countermeasures' Active defense, but once it is turned on, it will definitely not be any worse than Hogwarts.

Hogwarts is not a pheasant magic school. In terms of defense strength, Durmstrang's new school is not as strong as Hogwarts. Its founders are four awakened wizards. Even in terms of ordinary magic In terms of abilities, the awakened person is also much stronger than the normal wizard.

"Thor, take your mother!"

Harry turned his head and shouted, then jumped forward in the air and was more than a meter away from Fleur. He spun slightly in the air, but the magic of disapparation did not succeed.

"It's a good relic of the Awakener. There is interference. My apparation distance cannot exceed fifty meters. The person who built this small city is definitely an Awakener wizard."

"This city's basic defense network is better than Hogwarts. At least this guy is much more diligent than the founder of Hogwarts. He does it himself and doesn't cut corners."

In Hogwarts, Harry's Apparition is unhindered. This is because when it was first established, Hogwarts was designed to be a 'universal inheritance' in order to facilitate subsequent successors in maintaining the castle. For maintenance and modifications and updates, the Big Four did not use the set of tools of the Awakener Wizard.

Thunder Lan Long Thor, who had spread his four wings, landed lightly while carrying Fleur on his back, while Harry, who had slightly bent his knees to relieve his strength, also stood firmly. His falling speed was not fast, and it might as well have fallen to the ground from the tenth floor. , bending the knee is already very honorable.

When looking down from the sky, there is nothing special about the city except that it is a little darker. But after landing, the people who were included in the city felt the oppression from the night and the unknown.

Thor was back in Fleur's chest, ready to run away with her mother at any time, while Harry had both guns in hand, staying alert and alert.

There was no human voice, no noise, not even the chirping of insects. In the quiet night town, only the wind passing through the street whistled slightly, hollow and with a bleak after-sound.

There is not a trace of dust on the clean and new streets, but when you move your feet, you can make a crisp sound of footsteps.

"It's iron."

After Harry squatted down and touched the ground, he discovered that the entire road was not paved with black slates, but a single piece of cast iron. It fit perfectly without any gaps. Even at the connection with the houses on both sides, there were still no gaps. .

If magic is used, there will be no problem with such an integrated structure. Transfiguration can shape objects. As long as it does not involve material changes and is just a simple deformation, it will remain unchanged after the deformation is completed. In this state, wizards have amazing achievements in the field of sculpture, but it does not mean that wizards are very good at this, but just because as long as the shapeshifter's head is not so stupid, as long as he can accurately complete the shape conception of a certain object in his mind, then Can use deformation to 100% restore the whole appearance.

However, this only targets the specific form changes of non-magical substances. Magical substances are not so easy, at least for ordinary wizards, it is difficult to do.

"Just Fan Tie?"

Australia is rich in iron ore. There is no doubt that those reddish-brown 'sands' are high-quality iron ore. If you want to smelt iron and build such a black iron city, you can't do it in this place. It can only be said to be based on local materials.

Harry, who frowned slightly, grabbed the wall of one side of the house, stretched out his thick arms and squeezed hard!

He forcefully dug out a piece of 'clay' from the wall, and a brushed silver light shone. The jet black color on the outside was a coating of iron tetroxide, while the inside was a silver metal composed of pure iron.

The slight difference in feel between the inner and outer layers made Harry carefully observe the iron in his hand which he regarded as plasticine. The hardness of pure iron was not very high. He would never be able to squeeze charcoal into diamond with his hands. , but if you pinch pure iron, which is a little harder than gold, you still have to pinch it with your hands.

"If magic power penetrates, the outer layer should be a little harder than the inner layer, but now it's the other way around."

The concentration of magic power in the air is higher than that of the outside world, but it is only slightly higher. It is not as good as the outermost area of ​​Chichatra. If divided by the level of world wonders, this is at most the lowest level of magic power enrichment area. It's okay to live with small things at the bottom of the food chain, such as garden gnomes, little potatoes, and fairies. A little higher up, even magical creatures like the horned camel can't survive. It's similar to a desert, but not as good as a desert. , the desert can still support camels.

"Then the most likely answer should be that the material used in this iron city was refined magic iron ore. This city was probably built on a large magic ore vein, but it has not been maintained for a long time. The magic power inside the material is gradually extracted and used to pay for the giant magic protective barrier of this city. With this extravagant and wasteful use, the mine has not been completely drained, so it is considered to have a strong enough foundation."

Whether it is magic mineral veins or magic-rich areas on land or underwater, when well maintained, they will gradually expand their scope. Although this scope is not unlimited, they do have a certain room for growth.

The magic-rich area here is constantly weakening, at least until the juicer-like protective barrier collapses. Without the intervention of external forces, there is no room for upward growth here.

"Harry."

Furong's slightly trembling voice came from behind. After all, she was a girl. In this place where there were no figures, no voices, and not even a few living creatures, Furong was a little scared.

‘Ho~ho ho~~’

As a hoarse and weird voice sounded, Harry turned his head and made a ghostly grimace. He also thoughtfully cast a beam of green light under his chin with a lighting spell. This grimace was scarier than a ghost. The moment he turned around——

Without even thinking about it, Furong punched instantly!

The first form of anti-wolf technique for women!

Liver attack!

‘Hiss~~~~’

The second form of women’s anti-wolf technique!

Throat-breaking blow!

‘cough cough cough’

With one hand covering his stomach and the other covering his throat, Harry grinned and arched his body. Although it didn't hurt at all, he deserved it, and he had to pretend to have some charm.

"You scared me to death"

After finding out that Harry was playing a prank, Fleur was both annoyed and amused and touched Harry's hair with a little distress.

"Does it still hurt now?"

"I deserve it. It doesn't hurt."

A pig hummed and raised its head. He made eye contact with Little Thor, and then pushed the little guy's bag aside. Well, it felt familiar.

"Ha~~Lee!!!"

When she discovered this little trick that could not be concealed, Fleur clenched her fists.

"I just like a good girl like you with long breasts and thighs, a gentle personality, and a very considerate person."

Harry, who had a serious look on his face, spoke seriously.

"Haunted house. No, the ghost town adventure has just begun. Come on, hurry up, or it will be dawn later."

Fu Rong's eyes were dazed for a moment as she was holding her hand. She just wanted to...

"What did I want to do just now?"

——————

It was originally written about Shennongjia-Lishan dungeon, but after thinking about it, I felt it was not appropriate. After all, the magic pedigree of the Taishi Celestial Dynasty was very different from the original HP, and I didn’t know how well it would be accepted for a purely second-design thing, so I just wrote that one. Abandon it, rewrite the Black Iron City, and fill in the holes in front of it.
