A tall obelisk stands on the ground line, like a pointer to a sundial.

The entire manor building is centered on this stone tablet and radiates to all directions.

On one side of the obelisk, there is a beautiful cube building, which is still brightly lit at night.

The room echoed with Chopin's nocturne, slow rhythm and melody.

Nico surrounded the dragon-skinned apron, wearing white gloves woven from eight-eyed giant spider-spider silk, bent her waist and stared at the Ravenclaw crown floating on the experimental bench.

William, who has been at the manor for a few days, also dressed in a similar manner.

He stood aside, taking over the role of the house elf Hercule, and temporarily served as Nico's experimental assistant.

William has little effect, so he handed over some strange tools from time to time:

Pliers, tweezers, test tubes, golden compass, and even electric welding and laser pens.

By the way, learn some real technology.

This research has been going on for a whole day.

Nico's expression was sometimes excited, sometimes decadent, sometimes angry, sometimes desperate.

William is not unfamiliar with that. He had it in his previous life... Well, when he was doing math tests!

To describe it, it is probably: I can’t do this question, it’s too difficult!!

"This melody is not good, it is extremely depressed, and I want to commit suicide." Nico said without raising his head.

"William, have some fun music!"

William nodded and snapped his fingers.

Chopin in the mirror rack left reluctantly, and replaced it with the young Richard Clayderman.

Clayderman sat in front of a piano and played "Adelina by the Water".

"That's right." Nico stretched out.

He lowered his hands, and the crown suspended in the air, and gently rotated it.

From William's perspective, you can see the famous quote of Ravenclaw on the crown:

Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind!

Above the four walls of the room, six portraits of Nico were surrounded by them, and they all ignored their images, holding telescopes or monocles, trying to peek.

As the night darkened, Nico finally completed all the inspections.

"How is it?" William asked impatiently, "Can the crown be repaired?"

Ravenclaw's crown was rusty and worn on his head, without any ability to increase wisdom.

It's completely different from the legendary one.

It seems to be completely ruined.

"With my current ability, it is difficult to repair it." Nico shook his head regretfully.

He took off the black-framed glasses made of the horned camel beast, put them away, and flew towards the shelf.

William is a little difficult to accept. Will the Deathly Hallows be scrapped?

Although it is very scientific, it is too magical, right?

"Is it because Voldemort made it into a Horcrux?" William guessed.

It shouldn't be.

Even the diary is intact, and there is no reason why the crown will rust because of this.

"Voldemor's Horcrux?" A scent of contempt appeared in Nico's tone.

"William, it has nothing to do with that...the crown has traces of prehistoric mystery."

"Prehistorical mystery?" William said in surprise.

"That's right." Nico sighed softly, "I have deconstructed the entire process of the destruction of the crown, you can take a look."

The old man hooked his hands, and a delicate silver instrument, four legs emerged, running from the corner like a crab.

Nie lightly tapped the silver instrument at the tip of his magic wand.

The instrument immediately started to operate and made a rhythmic ‘beep’ sound.

Widths of light white smoke spewed out from the small silver tube on the top, gathering in the air.

After a few seconds, a few wisps of light smoke turned into a steady stream of smoke, becoming thicker and thicker, hovering in the air... and turning into the crown of Ravenclaw.

The crown is bright and beautiful, especially the row of fonts, which are even more shiny.

"This is the crown under normal circumstances."

Nico calmly raised his hand and brushed his sleeves, and the breeze rolled up the smoke. It flowed slowly, like a gurgling water flowing.

"The next step is the whole process of change."

William kept staring at it seriously, but after thirty seconds, the crown still did not change at all.

He thought it was a still picture, and was about to remind him that the dazzling luster of the crown suddenly dimmed.

It seemed as if someone had driven eight times the speed, and the crown was slowly fading in a strange way.

In the slow process, a natural rust process occurs.

The entire evolution lasted for a minute.

In the end, it was exactly the same as the crown on the stage.

"What's going on?" William was shocked.

"The power of time."

Nico raised his dry arms and said calmly, "Time can destroy everything. Look at my hands, they are already as old as tree bark.

William, I lived for over six hundred years and my body has also aged for six hundred years.”

"I said, flesh and blood...the body of a mortal will not last forever.

With my current situation, even if I refine a few more magic stones, I will only live to a thousand years at most.”

Nico chuckled softly and said, "This body cannot support me to see more scenery. My final outcome... may only be to return to the embrace of the god of death."

Nico's tone was relaxed and he didn't feel much annoyed.

William had known for a long time that the Philosopher's Stone could not live forever.

The Philosopher's Stone can only continue life, but the body is constantly aging.

This is an irreversible process!

Nico searched for two other death hallows to completely unravel the alchemy book.

In the following two volumes, there may be the way he wants to continue his life.

"Time can destroy me, it can destroy anything, and of course, including the crown of Ravenclaw," Nico continued.

William thought for a moment and wondered: "But after Ravenclaw lost his crown, it is only a thousand years away.

The crown cannot be rusted so quickly, right?”

The Ravenclaw ring was still intact. Nico's alchemy book had no trace of damage.

Nico was ridiculous. "Who told you it was a thousand years?"

William frowned and stared at the crown.

"This crown has been weathered for at least tens of thousands of years."

Around the laboratory bench, Nico paced up, "Ravenclaw, one of the four giants, is proficient in prehistoric mystery of time.

She used the powerful magic of time to act on the crown. It would be possible to become what it is in the present after thousands of years of baptism."

"So..." He stopped and suddenly turned to William, "When Voldemort found the crown of Ravenclaw, it must have been useless.

He probably found that it was different from the legend, and the crown could not increase wisdom, so he made it into a Horcrux."

"Ravenclaw...why did she do this?" William was puzzled. "Why did she destroy a Deathly Hallows in this way?"

This is completely unreasonable!

"This can only be asked by Ravenclaw himself." Nico shook his head, as if he was quite puzzled.

"Ravenclaw may have discovered something, but we don't know."

"Is it possible that it is not repaired?" William did not give up.

"Of course there is!" Nico's wand swung, and the book "The Book of Abraham" appeared in William's hands.

William gently opened the alchemy book divided into three groups.

"When I discovered the book of alchemy, Abraham, the original owner, left a pampering scroll," said Nico.

"The first group of contents contains all the alchemy items that have appeared in the magic world.

The second set of contents has the method of making the Deathly Hallows.

In the third group of contents, alchemy items that have not appeared in the magic world before."

"Just unlock the second set of contents, you can probably fix the Ravenclaw crown."

"So... I'll still get Slytherin's wand." William murmured to himself.
