"Drip, drip, drip" Merlin was lying on a bed, beside him, some complex instruments were working, and on the screen on the other side, a green line was beating, representing Merlin's heartbeat.A young nurse was helping Merlin draw blood, and the smell on her body was very good, it was a faint floral scent.Unfortunately, the smell of the hospital was not good, Merlin didn't like the smell of disinfectant water, and the doctors who came and went in white clothes.He remembers that as a child, he was scared to go to the hospital, not because he was afraid of injections or medicines, he just didn't like the atmosphere.Sadness, despair, pain, sadness, this is a place full of depression, and healthy people don't come here.He wasn't sick.He was just doing a pre-employment medical check-up and taking blood for a test by the way.It is said that this is to gather information for his subsequent training plan."
You're in good health."
The doctor with a stethoscope walked into Merlin's hospital room with the test results, and he said to the young man lying on the bed: "There is no problem with the heart, circulatory system, brain, etc., and the results of the examination also show that you are a healthy and normal young man, and I have never seen a person as healthy as you in my past ten years."
The only thing that's a little weird is that your blood temperature is below par, but that's not a big deal. ”"Here's your medical report."
The doctor handed Merlin a few pieces of paper, and he put his hands in his pockets and said to Merlin, "After the blood is drawn, you can get out of here." ”"Thank you."
Merlin nodded to the doctor in thanks.And a few minutes after the doctor left, Nick.
Fury went into the house, and the little nurse finished drawing blood and left the room.Merlin watched the little girl leave with some regret, and then put his eyes on Fury's face, and he rubbed his arms as he said, "Do you know that sometimes, your face is really scary.You should learn to smile. ”"Of course I can laugh, but that doesn't mean I'm happy."
Fury replied expressionlessly, then took out an ID card from his pocket and threw it to Merlin, saying, "Take this card, after you complete your training from the Secret Service Academy, you will report to the base, and someone will be in charge of your onboarding process." ”"What I need to tell you in advance is that Merlin, you are still a supervised person at this time, and you will not officially become a member of the Strategic Science Corps until your vetting process is completed.And until then, I hope you get your training...
Get rid of all the habits you shouldn't have!
”Merlin snorted, and he learned Fury's tone and said, "Of course I can throw them away and, like you, become a ruthless secret agent."
But that doesn't mean I like to do that. ”He looked at Fury, as if sensing Fury's indifference, so he changed the subject, and said, "When will I start the transformation phase training of serum?"
”"There's no hurry."
Fury put his hands behind his back and replied slowly, "At least wait until we figure out why you have so many nosebleeds."
Ms.
Carter's memory is that Captain America has not been in this situation after receiving seroconversion, which may mean...""
That doesn't mean anything."
Merlin interrupted Fury, who said with some interest, "Don't look for it, you can't find the reason." ”"Oh?"
Fury narrowed his eyes: "Sounds like you're hiding something?"
You know why you're bleeding, right?
”Merlin got dressed, took his ID card, and walked out of the room.Fury followed him, as if waiting for Merlin's answer, and after walking out of the hospital at the headquarters of the Strategic Science Corps, Merlin stood on the side of the road, looking at New York City in the early morning in the distance, he took a deep breath of the early morning air, and he said a little gloomily, "Yes, I know." ”"During the time when I had just made a contract with demons, whenever I felt the flow of magic in my body, I would get nosebleeds, and even more severely, even my ears would bleed.But it doesn't hurt my health, and a friend told me that this is the gradual growth of my soul and that it doesn't represent anything. ”Hearing Merlin's words, Fury's expression changed slightly, and he whispered, "It's the first time I've heard an interesting statement.Sounds mysterious. ”"Mysterious?"
Merlin shook his head: "No, you think it's mysterious, and you're curious about it because it didn't happen to you, my sir.Trust me, you won't find it fun when you have a demon in your body. ”"And what does it represent?"
Fury asked again, and Merlin hesitated, as if organizing the language.He and Fury walked down the streets of the hospital to the parking lot, saying, "Every time I bleed, it represented the erosion of my body and soul by the magic of darkness.After just injecting the serum, after my body was strengthened, I thought that this would weaken or even disappear.But no, on the contrary, I could feel that as my body grew stronger, the more magic it could carry, and its erosion became more violent. ”"Every night, every dark night, it quietly grows and grows.It lurked in my soul until it was strong enough to swallow me headlong from within. ”Merlin rubbed his forehead with a little pain, and he said, "Last night, I had a nightmare all night...
I thought I wouldn't have any more nightmares, but alas, it might just be wishful thinking.It never went away, and as I used its power more and more often, it became more and more connected to me. ”"It's transforming me, Chief Fury, it's pushing me to a boundary, and once I cross it...
I'm going to lose my identity as a human being. ”"What will you become?"
Fury took out his car keys and opened the door of his black sedan, and he sat in the car, Merlin sat next to him, and as he started the car, he asked, "Will it turn into a demon who destroys everything and spits fire?"
”"It's not that exaggerated."
Merlin smiled, leaned back in his seat, and said to Fury, "According to my friend, I'm going to be a half-demon."
Neither a human nor a demon, if I can't control my inner desire to destroy, I'll become a terrifying killing monster.Speaking of which, have you never seen a half-demon?
A well-informed person like you shouldn't be. ”"Huh?"
Fury's eyes widened, and he fiddled with the steering wheel and asked, "Why do I have to see a half-demon?"
I've contained a lot of dangerous things, but honestly, I've never seen any of those alien creatures in person. ”"You're in luck."
Merlin turned his head to look out the window, and in the sunlight, the whole city seemed to wake up, and he said, "You know what?
In Manhattan alone, there are no less than 5 half-demons, and in the whole of New York, there are almost 11...
They lurk in the crowd, with all sorts of identities, lurking in the city for different purposes.I've always wondered how many of these monsters there should be in the whole of North America. ”"What did you say?"
Fury was really surprised, and he looked at Merlin: "Are you sure?"
Are there really 11 half-demons in New York?
”"Yes, I'm sure."
Merlin closed his eyes and recalled the five months he had spent in Hell's Kitchen, and he said, "At least eleven, and only half-demons with a strong heritage, meaning that their power comes directly from the Great Demon or Great Devil.Once the power gets out of control, it will immediately trigger a catastrophe that will melt the city. ”"As for the humans who have been infected by ordinary aliens, that's even more.But according to my understanding, if they are just ghosts or little devils, they will not have any major problems in human society.Oh, by the way, I don't know if you know, in fact, there are a lot of vampires in some remote places in New York. ”"I have seen them seduce ignorant girls and boys in the streets.""
Click" Fury slammed on the brakes, he looked at Merlin beside him, and after a while, he took out a pen and paper from his side, handed it to Merlin, and said solemnly: "Give me all the hidden half-demon life and activity area, as well as the physical characteristics that you know now."
And those areas with a lot of alien creatures, anyway, anything you know about these guys, I'm going to ask for it!
”"Ms.
Carter may have seen that...
Merlin, you are indeed what we desperately need, talent in the field of paranormal phenomena and affairs, so I will give you a mission, and this is also your first mission to join the Strategic Science Corps. ”Fury patted Merlin on the shoulder and said to him, "You are directly under my control, I need you to find out all the hidden aliens in New York in the shortest possible time, and it is best to make a list of anomalous creatures." ”"It's useless, Fury."
Merlin shook his head, and as he scribbled something on the paper, he said to Fury, "I've fought with your agents, and they can't even deal with me, a normal person who has only received a little bit of dark power.In the face of those powerful half-demons, if you let them go, you can only send them to death, in other words, even if I give you everything you need, you can't deal with them. ”"Who says we don't?"
Fury snorted, and he assumed an unfathomable gesture and said to Merlin, "It's only been a few days since you joined the Strategic Science Corps?"

You know what we're all about?
”"Come on, Merlin, you have no idea how important the Strategic Science Corps is in this system.We also have masters within who specialize in dealing with alien affairs, but because they are masters, we can't always trouble them.The little work of gathering intelligence can only be done by you. ”A hint of indifference flashed in Fury's eyes, and he said, "You are only responsible for locating and inventory.Offend the living, we come!
”Merlin looked at the expression on Fury's face, in the state of spiritual vision, he clearly saw the confidence in Fury's eyes, he nodded thoughtfully, and said to Fury: "Since you are so confident, then I will take this task."
I'll start this task when I'm officially hired. ”"Hmm...
Of course, to run all over New York in a short period of time, I need a good car, and you will pay for the gas!
If you can, give me a less stupid partner, after all, you can't let me do all the chores. ”"You're thinking a lot."
Fury shook his head and said to Merlin, "Wait until you graduate from the Secret Service Academy." ”"Cut, it's not interesting, I'm already starting to regret joining you.You see in those movies, James.
Bond's gang...
How handsome. ”Merlin complained, Fury snorted, restarted the car, he hit the steering wheel, and said coldly: "James.
Bond?
That's just a pseudonym, he's actually a very talkative person, and his real experience is much more exciting than those sissy movies. ”"Have you seen him?"
Merlin looked at Fury in amazement, who had put on a new pair of toad glasses, covering most of his face, and the corners of his mouth were still the same unfathomable smile."
Guess."
Merlin didn't guess, he looked at the street sign on the side of the road, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly said to Fury, "Do me a favor and take me to Columbia University." ”"Huh?
Where are you going, what are you doing?
”Fury asked, but Merlin didn't answer, but Fury turned the wheel anyway and drove onto the road to Columbia University.———————————— "bang" Merlin, who was wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap, closed the car door, and he looked at Columbia Dental Medicine in front of him, and a faint wave flashed in his eyes behind his sunglasses.He turned around and handed Fury the paper full of letters, and he leaned on the car door, reminding, "This is the target of all the suspected half-demons I've found."
Listen to me, Fury, don't provoke these people until you're sure...
I don't want to wait for the first thing I do when I join the company to help you collect the body. ”"yes, I know."
Fury was not angry at Merlin's provocation, instead, he carefully folded the piece of paper and put it in his pocket.He looked at Merlin and said, "I still don't understand, what are you doing here?"
This is a school, not a place for homeless people, and you simply don't fit in here. ”"I know."
Merlin stood up, he pulled his hat down, and he said to Fury, "If it weren't for those accidents, I should be here right now...
I should be a second-year medical student.Do you understand?
Over here!
”Merlin pointed to the academy behind him, and said, "This is another life that I have passed away...""
I'm just here to remember...""
The dead self
