"You call these things 'supper'?"
Merlin sat in the dining room, which was twice the size of his house at Wayne Manor, and he looked at the dozen dishes and desserts on the round table in front of him, as well as the steaming soup.He looked back at the old man sitting next to him, wearing a nightgown, holding coffee, and meticulously combing his hair, and said, "If Bruce eats such a hearty 'supper' every day, then I'm curious, how does he stay in shape?"
”"My lord generally doesn't eat supper."
Ah Fu said a little tired while drinking coffee: "These dishes are specially prepared for guests tonight, of course, occasionally Master Grayson will come back for dinner...
But a few months ago, he went to college in New York, and he hadn't been back for a long time, and Master Jason should still be sleeping. ”"Grayson?
Jason?
”Merlin picked up a piece of beef as he asked, "Who's that?"
You call them young master, Ah Fu, are they Bruce's children?
”"No, no."
Old Ah Fu shook his head, and he whispered: "Those are two very energetic young people, their stories are similar, they both lost their parents in an accident, they both want revenge, they are stopped by Bruce, and then they are brought back to train.I can see that Bruce sees his younger self from them, but the problem is, Bruce can't even control his own life, how can he teach an adolescent child?
”"In the first two years, Grayson helped Bruce 'do chivalrous' in the city as an assistant, and now he has been replaced by Jason."
Old Ah Fu was very dissatisfied and said: "That's what they say, in my opinion, they are just messing around!"
He just went to play with his life by himself, and he also brought a teenage child to play with him!
”As he spoke, Ah Fu put down the coffee cup, he turned his head to look at Merlin, and he said, "I helped you, right, Merlin, I also saved your life, can you do me a favor." ”"Huh?"
Merlin picked up the tablecloth and wiped his mouth, and he said to Ah Fu, "What's the hurry?"
As long as I can do it. ”"Please help me convince Bruce."
Ah Fu said with a worried face: "You are one of his few good friends, I hope you can persuade him to give up this dangerous career, let him inherit the Wayne family well, and become a successful or failed businessman, I don't really care about the result, but as long as he can stay away from the current life of swords and swords." ”"Every night, I worry about him going out to fight crime, will it end badly, will he get hurt?
Or even worse, will it be...""
I'll advise him."
Merlin picked up the glass of water, and he said to Ah Fu: "He's just an ordinary person, he shouldn't get involved in this kind of thing, I can understand, and I agree with you."
But Bruce...
He's a, how to say that?
Although I spent very little time with him, I could also feel that he was not a person who would listen to the persuasion of his friends. ”"Indeed, he inherited the stubbornness of the Wayne family."
Alfred sighed, he picked up his coffee again, and he said with some gloom: "Especially now that he thinks he's doing the right thing, that sense of sacrifice for justice makes him a little fearless...
But he should be afraid, shouldn't he?
”"Yes, everyone who vows to fight the darkness should be afraid."
Merlin agreed: "We should be afraid, and sometimes it's not a bad thing to be afraid, it teaches us to be cautious." ”"What are you talking about?"
Bruce's voice rang out in the dining room at this moment, and he sat down at the table in a loose suit and said, "It looks like you're talking very well, and that's good." ”"We're talking about you, Bruce."
Merlin said, "Maybe you should take a break once in a while, I just saw the wounds on your body, and for an ordinary person, your scars are a little too much.I can help you arrange a treatment session to restore your fitness that has been affected by the injury. ”Merlin glanced at Old Afu and said, "It will take a few months." ”"I'll think about it, Merlin."
Bruce didn't care about Merlin's dissuasion, as Afu said, he was now walking on his own path, the strength of his life for justice and justice sustained him, and no one's persuasion would work until he suffered a setback.Bruce reached for the glass, he poured some wine into it, and said to Merlin, "What do you know about those Batmen?"
”Seeing that he was talking about business, Merlin immediately replied: "We don't know much, I just know that those batmen are the result of biological modification, and its appearance should have something to do with the legendary League of Assassins, but what I don't know is that if the League of Assassins already has warriors who can fly, then why do they use these warriors to eradicate the gangsters in North America?"
”"Could it be that they are tired of being killers, and now they want to taste what it is like to be a hero?""
Because they're going to infiltrate the land, Merlin."
Bruce took a sip of his wine, his eyes fixed on Merlin, and said, "In the more than 700 years since its founding, the Assassin League has spread all over the world, but in the new century, this organization has been challenged by many other 'peers', who have chosen to hibernate for decades, and now, it is clear that they have awakened and intend to return to their former glory. ”"Those Batmen were just a warning from the League of Assassins, the fall of the gangs in Philadelphia and Chicago, a wake-up call.If the groups that once served the Assassin League in other regions do not resubmit, then what awaits them is the silent warriors who emerge from the darkness and silently remove the heads of those 'betrayers'. ”Speaking of this, Bruce's tone became heavier and heavier, and he said, "Last year, Grayson and I did everything we could to stop the Assassin League's purge of Gotham, but in less than a year, they made a comeback...""
Sounds like you know a lot about this organization?"
Merlin held the glass of water, and he looked at Bruce, "You have a relationship with it, right?"
Before, your skill of walking silently in the dark, the skill of defeating those thugs, the kind of crisp, ruthless and merciless attack...
I don't think you'll learn that by going around Europe. ”"Yes, I was one of them."
Brustint replied, "After you were separated, I traveled all the way east from Europe, and finally met the Assassins in Nepal, and they recruited me into the Order, and they trained me and taught me all kinds of knowledge, like refining a piece of steel, testing me with constant trials.I'm not just a member of the League of Assassins, their leader, Lars.
Al.
Gul also regarded me as his proudest disciple. ”"Lars.
Al.
Gul?
”Merlin savored the name and said, "Sounds like Arabic?
What does that mean?

”"The head of the devil."
Ah Fu, who was sitting next to Merlin, took a sip of coffee and explained: "In Arabic, it is a word full of shadows and disasters.And only an arrogant madman would give himself such a name. ”"He's not arrogant, Ah Fu."
Bruce whispered, "He's mysterious, so wise that I can't even be sure if he's still alive, even though I saw him fall in the explosion."
But in the League of Assassins, there is a rumor that they have a way of resurrecting the dead...""
Resurrection of the dead?"
Merlin's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Let's talk about it in detail." ”"I don't know much about this, Merlin, the place where I was trained back then was not the base camp of the Assassin League, I just know about this rumor.And I think that even if there is a way to resurrect the dead, it should not be used, because behind the seemingly beautiful choice, there is always a great danger. ”"Well, indeed, there's some truth to what you're saying."
Merlin didn't refute Bruce's claim, and after a few seconds, he asked, "Those Batmen, how did you feel about fighting them?"
”"It's not hard to deal with.""
They are actually low-level ninjas in the League of Assassins, voluntarily reformed by the League of Assassins to dedicate their power to their crazy fantasies," Bruce said.You can think of them as warriors who can fly and use weapons, and although they are strengthened to heal themselves, they will be injured if they are hit by a bullet, and they will die if they bleed too much.And as a sequelae of the transformation, they can only move at night and have poor eyesight. ”"But it's tricky when you're surrounded, because they rely on hearing and ultrasound to catch targets, which means it's hard to hide your movements from them.But seriously, fighting with these Batmen is much easier than fighting against the high-level ninjas in the League of Assassins, and although their bodies are deformed, they are still ordinary beings in nature. ”"So based on your knowledge and guesses, what do you think will happen next for the Assassin League?"
Merlin asked, "I have no intention of intervening in your feud with the Assassin League, but I need to find the answer, and if this answer is hidden in the Assassin League's lair, then I feel that I need to make a trip." ”"If it's Lars.
Al.
The attack orchestrated by Gul, then, I believe, was more than just a simple attack. ”Bruce Mo rubbed his chin and said in a cautious tone, "Perhaps, he was conveying some kind of message, but the sudden appearance of the Eye of the Sky that night caused me to not find anything useful from that scene."
The Eye of Heaven will clean up the battlefield very cleanly, and maybe the mystery you want is there with them. ”"The Eye of Heaven will...
I've never heard of this organization. ”Merlin frowned, he looked at Bruce and said, "Do you know much about it?"
”"The Advanced Research Group for Uniting Superhumans, abbreviated as A.R.G.U.S, is also known as the Heavenly Eye Society."
Bruce replied: "I've had some contact with them in recent months, but they're not easy to deal with. ”"I only know that it is an organization directly managed by the White House, which was just established a year ago, and I heard that their appearance is precisely to replace the CIA, which has a big internal problem, to collect information on some supernatural events, and the appearance of the Sky Eye Society seems to have something to do with your S.H.I.E.L.D.""
Oh?
How so?
”Merlin asked, Bruce took a sip of wine, and said slowly, "As far as I know, S.H.I.E.L.D. used to serve the North American government, but now, you have become an international organization, directly subordinate to the World Security Council...
In this case, there is a shift between you and the North American government. ”"But bureaucrats always need organizations to do something unseemly, and they don't trust you as much as they used to, and it's not right for you to come forward and solve a lot of things.Isn't it normal for an organization to emerge in such a situation to replace your original role?
”"Well, it does make sense."
Merlin nodded, and he said, "But our work is not so easy to replace, speaking of which, are you sure that the Sky Eye will take everything in that building?"
”"Yes, I'm sure.""
They spent 2 days, almost a carpet search, taking everything valuable, and ordering the Gotham Police Department to hide all the information about it, and it seems that they don't like to show up," Bruce said. ”"That's a pity."
Merlin stood up and put down his glass, and he said to Bruce, "Looks like I'm going to have to go to them."
Bruce, do you know where the Eye of the Sky will store the data?
”"Near Star City, about a few hundred kilometers from here, in a makeshift base on the outskirts of the city.""
Keep going southeast, depending on your perception, you should find it easily," Bruce said.But Merlin, be careful, on that night, I saw that among the soldiers of the Celestial Eye Society, there were also some...
Well, the Superpowers. ”"Thanks, Bruce!"
Under the watchful eyes of Ah Fu and Bruce, Merlin quickly turned into a pure black raven, flapped his wings, and flew down the open window into the night outside."
Bruce, your friend—" Ah Fu rubbed his eyes and looked at the empty seat in front of him, and said to Bruce, "It's really mysterious." ”"It's more dangerous."
Bruce looked at the open window and the darkness outside, and he whispered, "It seems that he has also experienced a lot of things over the years.I knew that his life...
It's destined to be exciting. ”"Now it seems, I guessed right
