Chapter 167 15.Lightning Strike on a Rainy Night [90/100]


Steve Sr. said that Ms.

Carter had left Merlin some information.But in fact, this is a slightly "modest" statement, when he left Carter Manor, the trunk of Merlin's car was almost full of cardboard boxes, and those cardboard boxes were some classified materials of the former Strategic Science Corps.After returning home, when Merlin sorted out the information, he also found a key with an address and a message."

Merlin.

Riley, please keep these documents safe and pass them on to Nick if you are sure it is safe to do so.

Fury, besides, please take care of Sharon for me.——- Carter.

Peggy. ”When he saw this, Merlin suddenly had an ominous premonition.He rushed out of the house, drove his car, and rushed to Carter's manor, and sure enough, as he expected, the house was empty.Old Steve and Ms.

Carter are gone.Merlin had a hunch that this might be the last time he would see Ms.

Carter and the mysterious old Steve."

Ms.

Carter—" Merlin whispered, looking at the quaint key in his hand, "what the hell do you mean by that?"

”Merlin feels that he is involved in a terrible incident, and the reason for Ms.

Carter's departure is probably because of his sudden arrival and the accidental discovery of old Steve, who has been hiding.But who is the identity of old Steve?

Merlin stood in Ms.

Carter's empty home, and he was a little dazed for a moment.He stood on the wall covered with photographs, looking at the last photo, the one in which Steve .

Rogers does bear some resemblance to the old Steve that Merlin remembers.But Merlin can't confirm that the mysterious old man is really Captain America, who has been missing for more than 60 years.He himself said that the S.H.I.E.L.D. expedition had been searching for the missing Captain America in the Arctic Circle.But if he's not Steve.

Rogers, so who is he?"

Hell!"

The more Merlin thought about it, the more confused he became, and finally he decided to leave all the troubles to Fury.But thinking of Old Steve's warning, Merlin hesitated a little, maybe the current S.H.I.E.L.D. is indeed not really safe.After thinking about it, he put the information in his basement and decided to wait a little longer and then give the key to Fury.Of course, the news of Ms.

Carter's disappearance still aroused Fury's extreme attention.Over the next few days, Fury mobilizes S.H.I.E.L.D. resources to find Ms.

Carter, but the lady in her 70s and her mysterious husband seem to have truly evaporated.Sharon.

Carter was saddened to learn of her aunt's disappearance, and Merlin had spoken to her a few times, and from Sharon's answer, he knew that Ms.

Carter had not told Sharon about Old Steve's existence, and that she did not know much about her aunt's secrets.It's natural.Ms.

Carter was the king of agents in the last era, and if she wanted to hide her secrets, it would be difficult to find out.For most of the next month, Merlin stayed in New York, and he was subjected to several scrutinies about the tactical missiles launched in Britain's Wizarding Wars, but as Fury said, after Pierce helped him up in the World Security Council, these scrutinies were nothing more than formalities.Merlin did the right thing and didn't injure any ordinary person by mistake, and he shouldn't be treated like a criminal.As for the little girl Ava.

Starr and she is now placed in Bill.

In Dr.

Foster's lab.The doctor had made a simple repression pod for Ava, and by staying in that chamber, the irregular movement of particles in her body would be temporarily suppressed, and the little girl would be able to avoid the pain of her body being torn apart.Merlin went to see her every three days, and each time he cast a slumber charm on her so that the suffering little girl could rest well.The Wizarding War in Britain also entered a rather boring phase, with Voldemort and the Death Eaters hiding themselves, and their previous unscrupulous actions became much more low-key.And the wizards of the Order of the Phoenix, with the help of Gatler's agents, searched for Voldemort's Achilles' heel throughout the United Kingdom.Both sides are restrained, but according to Hermione's recent letter, Voldemort is desperately trying to rein in the dark creatures of the wizarding world, Dementors, werewolves, etc., under the pressure of the wizards of the Order of the Phoenix, who have the upper hand.Both sides are recruiting, and they are soon expected to stage a final showdown.But these things have nothing to do with Merlin for the time being, and he continues to live his life peacefully.Unfortunately, the quiet days were always short-lived, and in May 1998, a month after Merlin returned to New York, another bizarre thing happened to him.This happened on a rainy night.—————————————————————— "boom" loud thunder accompanied by a storm outside the window raged throughout New York, and such a heavy rainstorm is rare in this season.In such a storm, no one would venture out and would choose to stay in the warmth and comfort of their home.Merlin was also staying in his own house, but now, he was in his basement, studying something forbidden.Bright lights lit up the basement, and at the desk, Merlin was sitting, holding the green gemstone ring in his hand.That's Bellatrix.

Lestrange's mad witch gave him a trade to protect her children, and it contained memories of rare dark arts and the secrets of the Death Eaters.Merlin's eyes were closed, his fingers caressing the ring, and in the flow of magic, belonged to Bellatrix.

Lestrange's memories were scrolled through by him.The Mad Witch's account was very chaotic and completely incoherent, and Merlin even found in those memories the scene of her having an affair with her master Voldemort's tryst, which, frankly, was disgusting.Merlin scanned through the memories at a rapid pace, and he quickly found what he needed.It was a book, a heavy magic book that looked very evil and gloomy, the name of the book was "Demystifying the Cutting Edge of Dark Arts", and in this memory, Bellatrix seemed to have found the book in some hidden place and was flipping through its contents."

In the current legend of the wizarding world, the famous dark wizard of ancient Greece, 'Hellbo the Despicable', was the first person in history to discover the method of breeding a basilisk, and he was also the first dark wizard to make a Horcrux.There is good reason to believe that the Horcruxes, and their evil methods of making, were invented and handed down by Helbo. ”In the pages of that book, Merlin saw a description of a mysterious Horcrux."

No sane wizard should attempt to make a Horcrux, or even explore the secrets of this evil creation.But it is indeed powerful and useful, especially for wizards who want to avoid death, Horcruxes are the cheapest and most likely useful way they can find. ”"The so-called Horcrux is to split one's soul and store it in different objects.""

There are many disadvantages of doing this, it will make your soul unstable, it will make your magic out of control, it will distort your mind because it violates the rules of nature, the soul should be and must be complete from the moment it is born.""

But there are also many benefits to this, when you own a Horcrux, you don't have to worry about death anymore.Even if your body is destroyed, as long as the Horcrux is still there, as long as the soul fragments in the Horcrux are still there, you can still be resurrected...

But beware, wizards who are reading this, remember!

”"Once your body is destroyed, your soul is still there, but it's not as good as the lowest ghost...

You can't feel the existence of life, you can't feel the beauty of the world, you don't have a taste for drinking water, you eat meat and chew wax.The warm light is fatal to you, and even the fireworks of a child will make you feel extreme pain. ”"That feeling is really worse than being dead..."

In Bellatrix's memory, Merlin saw the whole process of making Horcruxes and the intricate spells after the warning of the author of the magic book.To his surprise, the Horcrux that looked complicated was actually not difficult to make at all.You don't even need other magical items to help you, the only hard condition is to carry out an evil murder, combined with complex spells, to ensure that your soul can be split.As for the materials used to craft Horcruxes, just like the Portkeys Merlin had made, anything ordinary would do.In the later account, the learned author also recounts the past of the ancient Greek dark wizard who invented the method of making Horcruxes, the despicable Helpo.It is said that Helbo made Horcruxes in order to make himself immortal.But what his Horcruxes were, and whether they were destroyed, remained a mystery until now.If Helpo's Horcrux is still there, it means that the wizard of ancient Greece is likely to have lived from ancient times to the present."

It looks like an unreliable approach."

Merlin was a little disappointed, after learning the secret behind him, he desperately needed to find himself some hole cards that could come in handy at the most critical moment, but from the knowledge recorded in this memory, it was likely that the Horcrux was not what he needed."

The after-effects are too great."

Merlin shook his head, and he continued to look through Bellatrix's memories, as if he were learning more forbidden knowledge from the mad witch.After all, dark arts have always been known for their great lethality, and all the magic that Merlin learns is from Mr.

Arthur's magic textbook, which has no record of it.And in Bellatrix's last memory, when she first became a young wizard, Merlin finally found something interesting.That's the secret of the Animagus!

The so-called Animagus is a spell like Professor McGonagall that can turn itself into a small animal, and it is also the general name for this type of shape-shifting wizard.It is the most advanced and difficult of all Transfigurations to master, but its effects are also extraordinary.Merlin had seen Professor McGonagall's transformed kitten with his own eyes, and even his dark perception could not tell the difference between this cat and a normal cat.But Goo seems to have found out.But Gollum just looks like a cat, it's actually an alien creature, and its existence can't be justified.Merlin was intrigued by this excellent way of hiding himself, so he decided to learn more about the method of becoming an Animagus.But just as Merlin was immersed in that memory, a piercing thunder suddenly sounded in a very close place, and the lights in the basement were completely extinguished at this moment, directly waking Merlin from that immersive state.Merlin stood up, he put the ring on his finger, and he walked out of the basement.The loud and piercing thunder just now seemed to have happened right above his head, that is, a lightning bolt struck his house.The lightning strike could have caused the transformer in the room to overload, leaving his house without power altogether."

Bad luck!"

Merlin walked in a dark living room, and he was going to look at the place where the lightning had struck.He pushed open the door to the backyard and saw that his garage had been roof destroyed by lightning and that there was a foul smell of burning.Worst of all, the classic Dodge Challenger muscle car, which he had almost repaired, seemed to have been struck by the lightning as well, and in the darkness, Merlin could see the parts scattered around him.It made him feel very, very bad.He repaired the car on and off for several years, and when he saw that it was finally going to be repaired, it turned out that something like this happened.Merlin breathed a sigh of relief, he walked into the dark garage, he picked up a part from the ground that had been partially melted by lightning, and in front of him, the car that had been repaired was already in pieces, which made Merlin shake his head in disappointment.But in the next moment, Merlin jerked out his wand Lola, aiming it at the deepest part of the garage filled with darkness and rainstorm.In the darkness, he felt a strange fluctuation of energy.The tip of the wand Lola danced with a dark red glow, like an arrow that could not be triggered, and Merlin shouted, "Who's there!"
