"Hmm" The moment Merlin walked out of the dock, a black Raptor car drove quickly.With a beautiful and perfect swing tail, it stopped precisely in front of Merlin's eyes.The doors opened automatically, and there was an escalator for the pedals, which extended to Merlin's feet.Merlin glanced back at the battle on the docks.The docks, which were almost engulfed by the sea, were in shambles, but the fierce exchanges continued.The soldiers of Hydra were almost killed by the ambushed Assassins, and the tyrant they brought with them was swept into the depths of the sea.The battle between Superman and Thor isn't over yet, and the Arthur trio are strong, but it's almost impossible to defeat the teaming up of Clark and Thor.And the Iron Man has already taken advantage of the chaos to leave the battlefield.Something went wrong with his Super Mark...
Maybe Merlin should thank Jarvis, after all, the artificial intelligence is risking being discovered and dismantled, and he played a scene with Merlin.Well, maybe Icarus communicated with Jarvis in advance.But the battle here has nothing to do with Merlin anymore."
Click" He sat in the car, and the seat belt was automatically fastened for Merlin.The doors closed, and Horus's steering wheel automatically deflected the next moment, and it started smoothly, but it rushed out of the combat zone at the speed of a sports car."
How's it going at home?"
Merlin leaned back in the driver's seat, as if he was closing his eyes.He asked softly.The next moment, Horus replied angrily, "Everything is safe, everyone is waiting for you at home, Master Merlin, your friend Wolverine Logan and the children of hell are protecting them, now do you want to go home directly?"
”"Nope."
Merlin shook his head, and he said, "I've got to find a place to clean up first—" he looked at the dust and blood that still remained on his shirt, and the pale, bloodless face reflected in the rearview mirror."
Just go back like this, they'll be worried," he said. ”"Need me to find a door for you?"
Horus asked in a low voice, "Maybe it's a good idea to enter the mystery house at this time." ”"Door?"
Merlin chuckled, he took out the key to the mystery house, inserted it into Horus's car keyhole from the inside, he twisted the key, and whispered: "There are doors everywhere in this world..."
Knock out three rockets from the sky.With the roar of flames shattering the earth, Horus appeared smoothly in the large hall of the Mystic Room.The car door opened, and Merlin walked down with a cane, and was supported by Xuanlan's arm that suddenly appeared."
How did you get this?"
Xuanlan said in a dissatisfied tone: "You respect the world, respect everyone, I hope you can respect yourself, once in a while...""
Can't you really just be kind to yourself?""
It was just an accident."
Merlin didn't want to argue with Xuanlan.He knew that Xuanlan was for his good.He was propped up to sit on the couch, and the fire in the fireplace burned a little more violently at this moment, making the hall warmer.Xuanlan picked up the handbell on her waist, and in the middle of the shake, the ghost servants appeared, brought a hot towel to Merlin, and changed him into new clothes.He was served a cup of hot tea at the right temperature, as well as a spare pastry."
You're injured, why didn't you come back as soon as possible?"
Xuanlan bent down and said while helping Merlin sort out her somewhat disheveled hair, "You know that I...
How worried are the children?
”"I just don't want you to worry too much about me, and it's not a big deal."
Merlin picked up his teacup, he took a sip of tea, and said, "It's just expected, I'm prepared for it, but it's still a little more powerful than I imagined...
But things haven't gotten out of control yet, and they're far from getting out of hand. ”"We've found the source of all the chaos," Merlin said, putting down his teacup and "the rest of the work is simple." ”"Really?"
Xuanlan stood beside Merlin, and she said, "You should know that in this room, I can feel your thoughts...""
Why is your beating heart telling me that this time you are not sure at all."
The housekeeper, who had been by Merlin's side for almost ten years, looked at her master, and she said seriously: "You tell me honestly, Master Merlin, what is the real situation?"
Tell me about your chaotic and complicated fate..."
Xuanlan walked up to Merlin, she crouched down and held Merlin's cold hand with both hands.She looked into Merlin's dark red eyes and said, "You know you can trust me, you can tell me...
What is all this?
”Under Xuanlan's inquiry, Merlin was silent for a moment, and after a few seconds, there was a hint of gloom in his eyes.He seemed to have taken off all his disguises, and he said to Xuanlan, "Okay, it's bad. ”"It's not because of the thing, Ran, it's because of the game...
I didn't tell you, but I'm sure you can guess. ”"The game's endgame is coming."
Merlin sighed, he looked up, looked at the ceiling of the mystery house overhead, and whispered, "When you are forced to start playing a game...""
You're forced to join the game in the worst possible capacity.""
You don't know all this at first, you think it's all your life, everything is real.""
But then, you wake up, you become detached, you realize, it's all arranged."
Merlin lowered his head, and he looked at Xuanlan's face that resembled Natasha.He stretched out his fingers, stroking the smooth cheeks, and said, "And you don't want to be so immersed in illusory satisfaction, you want to have your own reality, and most importantly, you want to win...""
Isn't playing games just to win?""
But now I'm facing the problem that the game is almost over, and I don't know what to do to win...""
I don't know what it means to win, it makes it hard for me to strategize, Hydra is just a minor issue, but this...
It's the big problem. ”A vain smile appeared on his face, and he stroked Xuanlan's cheek.In the burning of the fireplace flame, in that warm breath, he looked at Xuanlan, and he asked softly, "Lan...
Are you real?
Or are you, like me, just born in a dream?
”"It's like a soap bubble, poke it gently...""
Smack" "It's broken." ”Xuanlan listened to Merlin's narration, her expression changed, and finally, under Merlin's gaze, Xuanlan stood up, she reached out and pushed Merlin on the sofa.The next moment, Xuanlan bent down and put her entire body into Merlin's arms.She put her arms around Merlin's neck and kissed her lightly on the cheek.She whispered in Merlin's ear: "Now, you can feel my weight, my temperature, my feelings, do you think I'm real?"
”"I don't know."
Merlin closed his eyes and said, "But I hope you're true, just as I want it to be true...

And not a damn story, a damn game. ”"I want you to be flesh and blood, I want all the time we've spent together to be as real as steel, and I don't want to open my eyes the next moment and find that it's all a dream of mine.""
Or worse, it's all someone else's dream.""
At the end of the game, will we, who have completed our mission, still exist?
Can we go on?
Go to the unknown end. ”This question silenced the halls of the Mystery House, and Xuanlan couldn't answer it.In the silence, Merlin and Xuanlan leaned back on the sofa in a very ambiguous posture.There is only the sound of the flame peeling off as it burns.Other than that, there is only silence."
Of course they will continue to exist!"
After a few seconds, the silence was broken by a voice that seemed to answer Merlin's question, saying, "But you don't have to." ”"Huh" Xuanlan in Merlin's arms opened her eyes, and she turned her head to look at the person who appeared behind her.Her face was full of surprise and a hint of fear.As the companion spirit of the mysterious house, theoretically, no matter how powerful the person who enters this room is, he can't hide Xuanlan's perception, because she is the house itself.But now, a guy who doesn't perceive it has appeared.He was sitting on the couch opposite, with a cup of tea in his hand.But in Xuanlan's perception, this guy is as if it doesn't exist at all.What appears to be only a ghost, something that does not exist in reality.He wore a black suit and a gentleman's hat, which was worn diagonally over his head, obscuring most of his face, making his face appear to be overshadowed.He was wearing black gloves, gloves that fit perfectly, almost perfectly on his fingers.Underneath the suit, there is also a white shirt, which is a rare stand-up collar these days, but there is no matching bow tie or tie around the neck.It is worth noting that he sits on the couch in the sitting position of a big guy.The left leg rests on the right leg, and the blue cloak behind the back is draped smoothly on the sides of the sofa.And the clasp of that cloak was just below the collar.The clasp is peculiar.It's like three unique silver coins that are shaped together to form the clasp."
Hum" Xuanlan subconsciously mobilized the power of the mysterious house to drive out this sudden and strange intruder.But as soon as she raised her hand, she was stopped by Merlin."
It's useless."
Merlin's hand clasped Xuanlan's wrist, he looked at the mysterious person sitting opposite, and said, "He is not from this world, and the power of this world is useless to him." ”"Maybe he's watching you do your useless work with mockery, and then taking the opportunity to humiliate you.""
Lan..."
Merlin said to Xuanlan in his arms, "why don't you go and prepare a refreshment for the guests?"
”Xuanlan understood what Merlin meant, she looked at Merlin with some concern, and then at the strange mysterious person.She stood up and quickly disappeared into the hall."
Wow," the mysterious man put down his teacup and clapped his hands, saying to Merlin, "Compared to the last time we met, Merlin, you're really too mature...""
These girls around you are really amorous, and they are all so loyal to you, if it weren't for your pathetic situation, even I would envy you.""
I think you're really not growing since we last met."
Merlin straightened up, he looked at the mysterious man in front of him, and he said, "As before, I always like to talk nonsense. ”"But you've finally appeared, Mr.
Moke, I've been waiting for you for 19 years...""
I've been looking forward to seeing you again.""
Haha."
In 1971, Merlin was born.and in 1989, at the beginning of Merlin's real story, the Phantom Stranger, who appeared twice, sat on the couch and laughed.The third time he appeared, he looked at Merlin and said, "You expected me to come?"
Why are you so sure?
”"You're the Messenger."
Merlin said: "It is their eyes, their hands that reach into the world, their weapons that correct their mistakes, and their means of playing with those in the game." ”"The game is almost over, and if you don't show up, then I think you're too incompetent.""
Okay, okay."
The Phantom Stranger spread his hands, a strange expression on his face, which was shrouded in the shadow of his hat.He said: "I haven't seen you for so many years, you don't have much ability, but your temper is not small, and you have become sharp-toothed and sharp-tongued...""
People always have to grow, Mr.
Stranger."
Merlin said calmly, "If I have gone through so many things and I still haven't made any progress, it will be too disappointing for you. ”"That's right."
The Phantom Stranger nodded approvingly, and he took out his pocket watch, which had an extremely strange shape and internal equipment, and looked at the time.He said to Merlin, "I don't have much time, so let's be more honest." ”"I'm here to tell you something you need to know...""
But you're wrong, Merlin."
The Phantom Stranger smiled strangely, he pointed to the sky, and said, "But I'm not here on behalf of 'them'. ”"Huh?"
Merlin was a little surprised, and he looked at the Phantom Stranger with questioning eyes, who explained softly, "Although it is nominally a game of two people, in fact, from the beginning of the game, there are far more than two people involved...
A lot of people are looking at the results, and of course you don't need to know much about that. ”"What about me, I was honored to be the messenger..."
The stranger picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said, "But the will behind me also has its own plans and ideas, I serve the voice of the sky, and the voice of the sky also has friends...""
That friend of his, who is concerned about you, wants me to help you at some point."
The Phantom Stranger looked up and gave Merlin a big smile, and he said, "So, I'm here." ”"Ready to ask questions?
Merlin..."
The stranger's tone became serious, he looked at Merlin, and he said, "Kind reminder!
You've already made a mistake once...""
So this time, if you really want to get the right answer, then, it's better to ask the right questions
