It takes courage to walk in the dark.After a crisis that had just occurred, the hearts of all those in the darkness were filled with panic, sensitivity and fear.In the tunnel that is completely sealed at both ends, the warmth of the sun cannot reach it, and here the darkness controls everything.But Merlin walked in the darkness, and the shadows that covered his body flowed on his surface, and even more than the sunlight brought him a sense of reassurance, as if he were returning to his own home.There was nothing in front of him, and even without the lights, he could still see the darkness clearly.Probably because his vision was suppressed in the dark, Merlin felt that his sense of hearing and perception became a little sharper.He could hear the whispers of the women in the crowd, the suppressed cries of the children, the breathing of the men who were busy looking for a way out in the dim darkness, even when his fingers touched the cold tunnel surface, the subtle splits that took place inside the rocks, the rock structures that had become unstable by the impact.He moves like a shadow through the crowd, not touching anyone, and he is careful not to reveal his anomaly.But in reality, he is adapting to the darkness at an alarming rate.He blended in with the crowd, and without anyone noticing, Merlin grabbed the edge of the overturned carriage and jumped into the darkness, and he made his way along the debris-strewn tracks, and soon he was out of the crowd."
Bang, bang, bang."
And as he plunged into the darkness, he heard a sound from the crushed and deformed carriage in front of him.It was a rhythmic tapping, but it was faint.It was supposed to be a passenger trapped in the carriage, helplessly begging for help.Merlin looked left and right, and pulled the brim of the cowboy hat on his head down again, just like the original Phantom Stranger, covering most of his face with the brim of his hat, plus the sunglasses to cover it.In this darkness, almost no one could see him, let alone recognize him.With his keen senses, Merlin quickly pinpointed the location of the knocking sound, and he stooped down and crawled into the corner of the stone wall that had been overweighted in the gap between the two carriages.He put his hand on the car, curled his fingers, and gently prying it against the wall, as if in response to the sound of the knock.The sound of this knock was muffled, but for those stranded passengers, it was tantamount to a heavenly call.In the next second, the knocking sound became rapid, and a very immature, high-pitched, childlike voice sounded in the darkness.Despite his best efforts, Merlin could still hear a trace of panic and helplessness in that voice."
Anyone?
Is anyone out there?
Help us!
My mom fainted, I got caught, please, save us!
”"I'm coming, don't be afraid."
Merlin replied in a deliberately rough voice, and he moved his hands and feet to allow himself to take a few steps forward in the gap, and then looked up to see a little girl with messy hair and some black ash on her face through the broken window.She was sitting at the bottom of the carriage, looking around.Her arm was caught in the collapsed box, but judging by her expression, she shouldn't have been hurt.At the little girl's feet was a fainting lady.That should be her mother.Compared to her lucky daughter, this lady was not so lucky, she may have been hit by a falling box, causing her to fall unconscious, but there was not much blood on the ground.This also reassured Merlin a little."
Kid."
Merlin continued to shout in a thick voice, "Just stay there, don't move, I'll go find the tools." ”Merlin's voice rang out again, causing the little girl to jerk her head up.But she didn't have Merlin's dark vision, she could only see the darkness in front of her, as if she was talking to a ghost, which really scared the little girl."
Sir?
Where are you?
I can not see you. ”She said this deliberately, then shrank back.This action caused the suitcases stacked around her to shake a little, causing the little girl to let out an exclamation and startle Merlin.If those heavy boxes had collapsed, the little girl would have been bruised."
Don't move!"
Merlin's tone became softer: "I can see you, just keep this action and don't move...
I'll be back soon to save you, and your mother.Believe me, little girl, okay?
”With that, Merlin took a few steps back, lowered himself again, and crawled out of the twisted hollow passage of the carriage.Merlin deliberately made some noises to reassure the sensitive little girl.But after Merlin left, the little girl who was trapped in the corner shrank her head a little frightened, she looked down at her unconscious mother, she sniffled, and said to her mother in a crying voice, as if she was also saying to herself: "Don't be afraid, Mom, someone has come to save us." ”"Sounds like a big brother, he's definitely coming back, right?""
We'll be saved."
But the unconscious mother couldn't respond to her, which made the tears in the little girl's eyes can't help but flow, but she tried to hold back.She kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.In the dark, the 7-year-old girl maintained a position where her arms were bound by a built-up box, she was tired, but she knew she couldn't move.The danger is not over yet.After seeing hope, it is difficult to continue to wait.The little girl raised her head once every 10 seconds on average, pricking up her ears like a little rabbit, and she tried to hear even the slightest sound in the darkness, but Merlin seemed to disappear completely.1 minute, 2 minutes, very quickly, 5 minutes passed.The little girl's heart sank little by little, and all kinds of nonsensical conjectures began to echo in her mind.She, like most of the others trapped in the dark, began to make up for herself, and began to scare herself.The little girl's fear grew stronger, but just before she was crushed by her own fantasies, the sudden sound of steel clashing woke her up from her fantasies.The little girl was startled, and when she looked up, she saw a twisted steel rod stuck in the place where the two carriages collided and twisted.Merlin held the stick in one hand and used the strength to feed.He can't shake the two cars crammed together, and he can't separate them as easily as the hero in the comics, but he can use the simplest lever principle to pry open the door that has been completely sealed little by little."
Bang" The pried open door slammed into the darkness with a loud thud, and Merlin slumped into the carriage and walked quickly to the little girl and her mother, and he reached out and pushed open one by one the boxes that pressed the little girl's arm.In the darkness, he said gently to the frightened little girl, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”Merlin reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead, he moved the last box away, allowing the trapped little girl to be free, and the next moment, the silent little girl opened her hands and hugged Merlin's legs violently.Merlin was stunned for a moment.He could feel the little girl's body trembling, and she must have been frightened.She shouldn't have experienced all this, and the source of all this was him.Merlin breathed a sigh of relief, he tried to expel these negative emotions, he reached out and touched the little girl's messy hair, he said to the little girl, "Let go of me first, I'm going to take your mother out...
You follow me, be careful, okay?
”The little girl obediently let go of her hand, and she watched Merlin lean down and pick up her unconscious mother.She reached out and grabbed Merlin by the corner of her coat, and walked in the twisted, dark-covered place.After being saved, the girl finally felt a little relieved.She didn't need to be scared anymore.As Merlin stepped out of the carriage, a light shone in the darkness behind the tunnel.Apparently, it was the sound caused by Merlin's prying of the car door just now that alarmed the others.Merlin heard clear footsteps, and there must have been at least seven people, men and women.Merlin put the unconscious lady on the ground, he crouched down, touched the head of the sensible little girl, and said to the little girl, "You stay here, and soon there will be uncles and aunts to help you."
Also, don't tell anyone else that you've seen me, okay?
”The little girl's eyes blinked in the darkness, and Merlin could see that they were beautiful brown eyes, and that she had long fluffy blond hair, like a lovely doll.In the face of Merlin's request, the little girl tilted her head, as if in thought, and she asked, "Why?"
”"Just like I saved you just now, I'm going to help the others now.But I don't like working with other people, I prefer to do things on my own. ”"Anyway, it's time to say goodbye, brave little girl."
Merlin stood up, waved goodbye to the little girl, and turned to walk further into the darkness, where the little girl shouted behind him, "What's your name?"
”"Merlin."
A deep voice came from afar, representing Merlin moving away quickly."
Alright!
I promise you, Merlin. ”There was no echo in the darkness, and there was no answer.Merlin had gone deep into the darkness, and he had left.After nearly 15 minutes of advancing in the dark, Merlin reached the rear of the train, where several wagons loaded with goods had flipped on their sides, and the wagons themselves, along with the heavy cargo, blocked the tunnel exit, and some rockfalls were mixed in, making it extremely difficult to climb the obstacle in front of them.Merlin could hear some men in the other direction, discussing ways to break the barrier.But as the old man said, those methods take time, and in the current situation, if people don't see hope, under the left and right of darkness, people can easily do things that hurt themselves and hurt others.Merlin knew he had the power to open through the heavy obstacles in front of him, just as he did at his psychic shop in Chicago.But the problem was that he had no idea what to do with that dark and dangerous power.However, he already had some guesses in his mind.Combined with the encounter at the Chicago psychic shop, Merlin guessed that the dark power flowing in his body would only actively explode when he encountered a strong external threat, eliminating all threats around him.It's like that weird devil bell that the old crook of Chicago pulled out.And in last night's outbreak, Merlin didn't completely lose his will in that posture of turning into a smoke storm.He could even vividly remember that his consciousness melted into the perception of the storm like black smoke, the gesture of being the wind and fluttering.He could feel that the power within himself was full of darkness and extremely dangerous, but it had no instinctive malice in itself.It is very likely that it was forcibly disconnected from the main body and was trapped in Merlin's body for too short a time, and it was unable to give birth to its own consciousness.So theoretically, Merlin is free to use it, as long as Merlin finds a way."
Okay."
Merlin moved his shoulders and arms as if he were warming up.In the darkness, he took a deep breath, stretched out his left hand, pressed against the heavy obstacle in front of him, he tried to calm his will, and after a moment, he said, "Come out!"
”However, the call was of no use other than to elicit some echoes.The dark power stayed in his body, without the slightest change, as if he was disdainful of Merlin."
Hell."
The young man cursed secretly, he changed his posture, and shouted again, but still did not get a response.A few minutes later, as the continuous shouting attracted the attention of the men on the other side, Merlin could hear the noisy footsteps approaching.There isn't much time left.Merlin gritted his teeth, he lowered his head and searched the ground, and after a few seconds, he picked up a broken bottle.He stared at the sharp piece of glass in his hand, and he felt that he must be crazy.It must have been the old man who poured him some ecstasy soup just now that gave him such a crazy idea.But now, be a coward or get out of here and wait for something bad to happen.Either...
Just use the extreme method and try again.In the darkness, Merlin held the broken glass behind his back, and in the darkness, he whispered, "Either it will work, or it will simply die as a human." ”"Do you hear that?
It doesn't matter what you are!
”Merlin's tone became stubborn, as if he were talking to an invisible person.He gritted his teeth and said, "I won't let you take me...
Turn into a monster!
”The next moment, Merlin's hands curled inward, and the sharp glass shards, like a dagger, pierced his heart.There is no stop, it does not seem to be fake, and the strength is exhausted.Just as the sharp broken glass pierced Merlin's skin, and the moment Merlin felt the pain, the silent power in his body revived in the darkness again."
Hum" In less than a second, Merlin's whole person turned into darkness, mixed with the wind of Mars, and in the roar, the dark wind slammed into the mountain-like obstacle in front of him.It was like a giant's fist, hammering the pile of steel and goods.Merlin's distorted and blurred consciousness felt like a flame that burned everything, igniting everything it touched.The power was so aggressive that the moment it touched the obstacles, an explosion sounded through the tunnel, startling everyone in the darkness.Then there was a second loud bang, a third sound.Carriages made of steel, heavy sleepers, iron ingots for forging in factories, beautiful heavy glass.Whatever it was, it was all impacted, all melted, all ignited.After three brutal impacts, Merlin, who had regained his human form, lay weakly on the floor of the tunnel, and before his eyes, a glimmer of the dawn sun shone on him like a sharp sword piercing the darkness.Behind him, there was a barrier that had been brutally broken through the center, and it was more than 10 meters thick.It's like a circular gap has been reopened."
Hehe, it's done..."
Merlin felt pain all over his body, not only soreness, but also the strange stinging pain of the sun shining on his face, he was very weak, his whole body had no strength, as if all his energy had been drained.But he let out a hard but contented laugh.He caused a catastrophe.He put an end to the tribulation, and he atoned for his sins."
Wow!"

A voice sounded behind Merlin, and the frail young man turned his head to see the little girl he had just saved, looking at him dumbfounded, as if he were looking at a real monster, and a real hero.Judging from her round eyes, this little girl must have witnessed the scene just now.And in the darkness behind her, Merlin heard the footsteps of many people, it was the sound of running, the instinct of humans to run towards the light.The weak Merlin struggled to get up, he picked up his cowboy hat from his feet, and then buckled it to his head, he raised his fingers, put them to his mouth, and in the sunlight, he made a silent gesture to the little girl behind him.Before those he had saved rushed into the light, Merlin had limped out of the tunnel in the sunlight.It's like...
He never showed up.()
