Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 415 1. Awakening--add more for all brothers, I wish you happiness [1715]

Time entered June 2002, and Merlin's affairs became more and more busy.

The operation to deal with the upcoming radical mutants is getting closer and closer, and Merlin's department will also join this large-scale operation sweeping North America.According to the resolution made by the World Security Council, Fury will join forces with the Sky Eye Society and the National Security Agency, with the assistance of the Ministry of Defense, to "clean up" the bases of several radical mutants.

This is a very large-scale operation, and its preparations are very complicated. Just coordination and task assignment are enough to keep Fury and his think tanks busy, not to mention, this time they have to cooperate with the Ministry of Defense. cooperate.

Because of the previous conflicts, the relationship between S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Ministry of Defense is not good at all.

But fortunately, SDOLD does not undertake the main task of attacking. As a department that specializes in managing supernatural phenomena, Merlin and his subordinates must do a good job in containment and treatment after the battle. The radical mutants escaped from the prison.

"Island Prison can't hold it anymore, it is now full of aliens that are harmful to society."

Merlin said to his subordinates in the conference room on the third basement floor of the base:

"We need to re-select the place where this group of radical mutants are held. We need to ensure that there is an energy-shielding barrier inside the detention facility, and we need to prepare a handling plan for special situations."

"Sir, those radicals aren't all villains."

Lincoln said:

"Isn't it a little too inhumane to just stuff them all into prison like this?"

Agent Mike, who was like an iron tower beside Lincoln, also nodded approvingly. This big man with a fierce appearance but a gentle heart also felt that this one-size-fits-all approach seemed not very good.

"Whether they're villains or not is up to us, Lincoln, and Mike."

Merlin calmly said to the others:

"I know, you want us not to wrong a good person, but guys, we are not a judging agency, we are a security agency. Our mission is to arrest those guys who don't want to get along with ordinary people. As for whether they are guilty or not , Whether you need to be tried or not is up to the judge."

He knocked on the table and said to his subordinates:

"Let me reiterate that after these radical mutants are arrested, there will be a team of lawyers formed by the World Security Council to conduct a threat assessment on them. Those who have no blood on their hands, their thinking is not so extreme, and they may change The mutants will be handed over to moderate mutants for management. So if you really help those who go astray, then when you arrest them, don't have the idea of ​​letting them go."

"Especially you, Lincoln."

Merlin looked at the alien agent with an awkward expression, he emphasized his tone, and said:

"I know that your past is somewhat similar to those mutants, but don't forget your duty, I don't want to send you to a military court with my own hands!"

"This time the operation will be carried out in 1-3 months, so you all have sufficient time to prepare. The work in charge of SDOLD will be under my overall command, but you will be divided into three echelons, and each echelon will come from other regions. You should have seen them all."

"The three senior regional commanders, Coulson, Melinda and Sharon, will take you to different mission locations. I hope you will be prepared and don't embarrass the headquarters or me."

"Understood, sir."

Several rookie commanders in the meeting room answered in unison, and Merlin was very satisfied with that kind of spirit.

He threw the document in his hand to his assistant, Barbie, and said:

"Barbie, you choose a few assistants with strong handling ability from the internal affairs agents, and act together with Agent Hill at the Trident headquarters, go to the several monitoring locations we selected, check the factors around those places, and select A place best suited for a large custodial prison."

He looked at the map and said to Barbie:

"I personally prefer Kansas, but the decision rests with Agent Hill. You have to assist her in her work."

"Well, I know."

Barbie brushed her long blonde hair behind her ears, and the maturing lady agent nodded, but under the calm appearance, Agent Barbie was also curious about one thing.

It is said that her chief, Her Excellency Merlin, has some unclear relationship with Agent Hill at the headquarters, and there are some gossip scandals between them that are widely circulated within S.H.I.E.L.D.

It is said that some agents saw Merlin and Hill going to the bar together at night, and Chief Merlin even sent Agent Hill, who was drunk, home and so on.

But these words are not dared to say in front of Merlin.

All employees in SDOLD know that their chief, Lord Merlin, is probably an ascetic. It is said that Lord Merlin has been alone for more than ten years since he joined S.H.I.E.L.D.

Someone once doubted the officer's sexual orientation, but that guy was transferred to the Barrow base in Alaska the next day, and he hasn't been transferred back yet.

Well, Chief Merlin is also a very narrow-minded person.

"What were you thinking, Barbie?"

Merlin's voice suddenly awakened Agent Barbie. When she raised her head, she saw the pair of eyes behind the officer's glasses that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts. This made Barbie panic for a while.

"Don't let your mind wander during the next meeting."

Merlin pushed his glasses calmly, and said casually:

"During working hours, don't think about boring things..."

A few minutes later, Merlin, who had arranged the general work for this month, took out his pocket watch to check the time, and said:

"If there is no problem, the meeting is adjourned now!"

The agents put away the folders in their hands and walked out of the conference room one after another. After everyone left, Lincoln looked around and said to Merlin:

"Sir, I have something to tell you."

"Ok?"

Merlin looked at Lincoln, and he said:

"What's the matter? Is it official business?"

"Do not."

Lincoln shook his head. He said:

"It's the 'afterlife' side. The last time I came back to the world, I asked Instructor Gordon to check my ability changes. I lived there for a few days, and found some weird things."

The young man frowned and said to Merlin:

"The elders in the 'afterlife' are all gone, and Instructor Gordon didn't say much about it. He just said that an important guest has arrived in the 'afterlife'. I asked a few friends, and they said that the guest was in a certain place last month. The one who arrived in the afterlife one night... the guest came in a strange aircraft."

"Ok?"

Merlin narrowed his eyes, and he asked:

"What kind of aircraft?"

"Same as a ship."

Lincoln took out a photo and handed it to Merlin. He said:

"It doesn't look like it was made by earth technology... I suspect that it may be that the alien dynasty that has left the earth sent an envoy, which can explain the disappearance of the elders. They may have come to the earth to perform some mission. But I have no proof of that."

"Well, I'll try to talk to Gordon about it."

Merlin looked at the strange blue spaceship in the photo in his hand, and he said to Lincoln:

"The relationship between you and the afterlife is complicated, so don't interfere."

"Well, I know."

Lincoln nodded and left the meeting room with the folder.

Merlin put the photo in his arms, he doesn't have time to deal with it now, he has more important things to do.

Merlin took out the key of the mysterious room, inserted it into the lock of the conference room door, then turned the door open and walked into the mysterious room. Xuan Lan greeted him at the door as before.

"Miss Elsa's transformation has been completed, Master."

Xuan Lan said to Merlin:

"She is currently in the guest room on the second floor, and she will wake up at any time."

"Ah."

Merlin nodded, and he and Xuanlan walked to the room on the second floor, and he asked:

"Is she doing better?"

"That force has obviously become much calmer."

Xuanlan said:

"The cold air is no longer leaking out, but entrenched in Miss Elsa's body, but we are not sure whether this is because of the changes brought about by the demon hunter's transformation ceremony, or because that force voluntarily retreated and had to wait until Elsa Miss Sha can only judge after she really wakes up."

"Oh, a month's time."

Merlin sighed, and he said to Xuanlan:

"Let the chef prepare some pastries, she may need something to eat when she wakes up."

"It's ready, master."

Xuanlan said:

"As long as Miss Elsa needs it, it can be delivered at any time."

"Ah."

Merlin stretched out his hand and opened the door, and then saw Elsa lying on the bed. The caring housekeeper Xuan Lan changed Elsa's clothes and seemed to have taken a bath. She was no longer pale, her lips had blood, and her long orange-yellow hair was scattered on the bed, looking like a quiet Sleeping Beauty.

In Merlin's eyes, Elsa's vital signs were very stable. After undergoing the witcher's breakthrough ceremony, her vitality almost doubled, just like a burning flame.

And in that flame, there is still a cold breath beating.

At least on the surface, that power has been integrated with Elsa.

This is a good sign.

Merlin walked to the bed, he reached out and touched Elsa's arm.It's cold, like ice, but it's much better than the previous self-freezing state, and the pulse is still beating, and the beating is very strong.

"boom"

Merlin knocked on the head of the bed expressionlessly, and said:

"When you wake up, open your eyes...how old are you, and you still pretend to be asleep like a child?"

"Swish"

Elsa, who was lying on the bed, opened her eyes suddenly.

Her beautiful, blue lake-like eyes disappeared, replaced by a pair of cat-like pupils.

But the problem is that she is different from the yellow cat pupils of other demon hunters. Her pupils are green, just like green cat eyes, and also like green gemstones.

Frankly, it's really beautiful, even if it's a little weird.

She just stared at Merlin, and Merlin stared at her, and after a few seconds, Elsa said to Merlin:

"When I was in a coma...my consciousness was still clear, and what you and my mother said...I heard everything."

"Oh?"

Merlin's expression was a little flustered at this moment, but he quickly returned to normal. He looked at Elsa, pursed his lips, and then he said:

"And what are your thoughts?"

"I...I don't know."

Elsa said calmly:

"I've never been in a relationship, I don't know if our relationship is normal, and I don't think much about going further, I mean, how about... let it be?"

"it is good."

Merlin didn't have too many rebuttals, just like what he said to Ruiwen, he believes that things like feelings cannot be forced.

Probably, Elsa didn't want the relationship between her and Merlin to be mixed with other things.

Such as guilt, such as coercion and so on.

"Don't listen to my mother's nonsense."

Elsa tried hard to sit up, Merlin reached out to help her lean on the head of the bed, and put a pillow behind her, she said to Merlin:

"My mother's view of feelings is still stuck in the last century. The relationship model between her and my father completely follows the thinking of the previous generation, which is not suitable for us. In addition, I also heard that you concealed me about my father. things."

"That wasn't my intention."

Merlin winked at Xuanlan, who quietly left the room and closed the door.

Merlin said to Elsa:

"That's what your father asked, and Master White Wolf also told me not to let you participate in matters related to Dracula. If your father can't handle things, you will only add to the chaos."

"Let me just say that the Hidden Blade in your hand looks so familiar to me."

Elsa puffed her face and said dissatisfiedly:

"So it's really my father's piece...then do you still have contact with him now?"

"No."

Merlin said with some regret:

"I haven't heard from Master Ulysses since Master White Wolf left, but he should still be alive."

"I'm going to find him."

Elsa said calmly:

"I'm already an official demon hunter, and I have abilities that other demon hunters don't have."

She spread her fingers, and a group of crystal clear ice flowers bloomed in her palm. The ice flowers shone with cold air and looked really beautiful.

"You just want to avoid me."

Merlin said softly:

"You're just giving yourself a reason to get out of here temporarily... right?"

"Yes."

Elsa glanced at Merlin, she secretly and quietly put her head on Merlin's shoulder, and said softly:

"It's embarrassing, Merlin, mom is really... This kind of thing is suddenly exposed, how can it be treated as nothing?"

"I have to go out for a while and think about the things between us... I don't hate you, but I don't seem to like you so much."

Her voice became softer:

"Also, you have always had Carol in your heart. I have never met her, but judging from the records in those files, she seems to be a very chic person...Maybe I have to learn from her so that you can really remember her." Hold me."

"Ok."

Merlin did not hold back, he said to Elsa:

"Let's go after a while. There is still a big task coming up. By the way, I will help you train the demon hunter's sword skills and your new ability."

"Okay."

Elsa rubbed her stomach and said:

"Is there anything to eat? I'm so hungry."

"Yes, wait a minute."

Merlin picked up the rattle at hand, which was quietly put down by the caring Xuanlan. He rang the bell, and after a while, a ghost servant brought cakes.

He maintained that posture, and then asked:

"Speaking of which, which faction's swordsmanship are you planning to learn? Are you going to become a Griffin-sect demon hunter like your father?"

"no, do not want!"

Elsa closed her eyes and said:

"I want to become a wolf demon hunter like you. When I was young, I worshiped Master White Wolf... Now I finally have the opportunity to become his successor. I will not give up."

"Speaking of which, you have seen Master Geralt, right? What does he look like? Describe it to me, and his wife, Yennefer, is said to be the most beautiful sorceress in the Middle Ages. Have you seen her? ?"

"No, Ms. Yennefer didn't show up. I only saw Master Geralt. He has white hair and a scar on his face, just like the character painted on that card, but it's not particularly impressive. I have a deep memory, if I have to say... the biggest impression he left on me is..."

"He's really good at poker."
