24. The end of the grievance--for the dead brother in the dream [11/40]

"Sir, then we're leaving now."

On the side of a helicopter about to take off, Colson is saying goodbye to Merlin.

"Also, sir, at noon today, an invitation to dinner was delivered to your office. Do I need me to deliver it to your house later?"

Fury was quite conscientious. After knowing that the matter was over, he immediately sent a helicopter to pick up the heroes home. However, Merlin would not go back immediately, and he still had something to do.

"These things are not important, so I will throw the invitation letter there, and I will deal with it when I am free."

In the darkness, Merlin told Colson:

"What really matters is that the report on the battle of the Eternal Night Temple, Colson, you draft a copy first, and I will take a look in a few days."

"good."

Colson did not refuse, and helped Merlin write report materials. He has become accustomed to it since he entered S.H.E.L.D.

"You two, go back and have a good rest."

Merlin said to Melinda and Sharon, who were sitting on the helicopter:

"After I reinstated, you can take a take-off leave. You have worked hard for the past six months. This time I will fight for you to see if I can choose a better vacation place. By the way, Melinda, I heard that you are about to get married?"

"Um."

Melinda nodded, she leaned lazily on the seat and said to Melin:

"You must come to my wedding at that time."

"As long as I'm not allowed to be my best man, and if I have time, I will definitely go."

Merlin smiled and took out a ruby ​​golden pendant from her pocket and threw it to Melinda, saying:

"This is my gift."

"Wow, so beautiful!"

Sharon, who was sitting next to Melinda, screamed. Even as an excellent action expert, women's instincts were still irresistible. Especially the necklace thrown by Melin, whether it was the retro and elegant workmanship or the huge ruby, made women unable to ignore it.

"You have, too."

Merlin shrugged, and took out a silver ring with sapphire inlaid from her pocket and threw it to the cheering Sharon.

Finally, a gold pocket watch dotted with black agate was quietly stuffed into Colson's hand.

These things were taken from Vlad III's private collection, and Merlin did not intend to hand them over to S.H.E.L.D.

Vlad III's collections all have different magical effects. Giving them to SHIELD will not only ruin them, but will also cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"This is my private work allowance for you."

Meilin said to the three subordinates in front of him:

"Okay, go back quickly and tell Fury that I will see him when I finish my work."

Watching his subordinates leave Todd Mountain in the hum of the helicopter, Merlin stood in the dark night that was about to dawn, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The vampire incident with rating S was finally over.

“Where is my work allowance?”

Miss Bloodstone sounded behind Merlin with a dissatisfied voice. The woman was carrying a hemostatic bandage on her cheek, and burnt wounds on her arms, and her hair was messy, looking like a female warrior who had just walked off the battlefield.

She complained to Merlin:

"Although I just started working, I have done a lot of work, and I have accompanied you deep into the vampire's nest, and I'm still."

"This is yours."

Merlin turned around and placed a small bag of more than a dozen magical gems in Elsa's hand, saying:

"I found it from the ruins of the Eternal Night Temple. In Diagon Alley in London, each such gem can be exchanged for dozens of Gallons. Save some money, it's a lot of money."

“I’ve been to Diagon Alley a few times, the clothes are beautiful and the snacks are delicious.”

Looking at the magical gems in her hand, Miss Bloodstone's complaints immediately disappeared. She happily put the gems into her pocket, then waved to Meilin with her black armed bag on her back;

"Then I'll go back first. I'll take a week's leave, go to London, and go home by the way."

"I only give you 4 days off."

Merlin raised his wrist and looked at the time, and he said to Elsa:

"The underground situation in New York is still turbulent. I urgently need an expert to help me deal with these things. Also, don't forget to buy yourself a magic pocket."

"In 4 days, I'll wait for you in the headquarters office, no problem, is it? Bloodstone Consultant."

"Okay, 4 days are just 4 days."

Elsa pouted, but said nothing. In the night, she called Du Pengde, and more than ten minutes later, the taxi wrapped in cheerful music disappeared on the streets of Staten Island with Miss Bloodstone.

Merlin returned to the foothills of Mount Todd, where the Blade was waiting for him.

The black vampire hunter sat on a broken tree stump, wiping his silver sword. His expression was calm, as if he had been waiting here for Merlin for a long time.

"Where is Whistler?"

Merlin looked around and saw no trace of the old hunter, he asked:

"Has he left?"

"Whistler is a very strong executioner. He is going to find his daughter on the West Coast and now he is back to pack up his things."

He said to Merlin without raising his head:

"I will leave with him when I finish doing what I have done here."

"So I'm curious, what exactly do you want me to do for you?"

Merlin asked with her arms in her arms:

"Don't make it so mysterious. I'm a little tired now. I just want to finish my work early and go back and have a nap."

"I want you to kill someone for me."

The blade raised his head and looked at Merlin with black eyes, he said:

"Kill a vampire."

“Is it strong?”

Merlin asked:

"It's so strong that we need the two of us to chase it together? High-level blood clan?"

"No, no."

The sword stood up and shook the silver sword in his hand. He said in a desolate tone:

"It is very weak, even the strength of an ordinary semi-vampire is not difficult to find. After gaining the knowledge of Vlad III, I can easily find it."

"Then why"

Merlin was a little confused, but before his question was finished, the blade uncovered the answer.

“It’s my mom.”

"Oh, that's it."

Merlin stopped the question at this moment, and he didn't need to ask any more.

He knew why Blade asked him for help. Maybe Blade could be caught by Dicken's group before, and this is why.

The two were silent for several seconds, and Merlin said:

"Then maybe, we can get it and put it in a vampire prison, I promise, it won't come up with it in my life. Maybe, it doesn't have to die. I mean, because of your special relationship, you might want it to be alive?"

"No!"

Blade said calmly:

"It has done evil things and is irreversible. The blood of the innocent is flowing in its body. Every drop is iron proof of sin. Most importantly, if other vampires must be punished for doing evil things, then there is no reason for it to escape punishment."

"It has completely lost its humanity. My mother died 30 years ago, and now she is just a ghost of the past that survives through her body."

After saying that, the blade stepped forward, like a shadow in the darkness, and rushed to the foothills of Mount Todd at an extremely fast speed, he said to Merlin:

"Come with me, I'll take you to find it, please help me end its pain."

Merlin rushed into the sky quickly and followed the blade running rapidly on the ground. The two of them advanced along the foothills of Mount Todd towards the depths of the mountain, as if there was a coordinate attracting the blade. From the beginning, he chose the shortest route.

"I said, if you have Vlad's source blood, can you still fly?"

Merlin was flying in the low altitude and shouted to the blade:

"Elsa said that advanced vampires have bat wings. According to the combat power you showed before, I think you have already crossed that threshold, right?"

"I don't like it."

Blade answered:

"Maybe I can, but I don't like to do that. I still feel deep down that I am still a human."

"Oh, that means you can indeed fly"

Meilin flexibly bypassed the erect trees, and the black smoke rolled around endlessly, looking like a big villain coming. He said:

"I hope you are smart enough to be flexible at critical moments. These rules and regulations of yours are really easy to kill you."

"I have my own sense of responsibility."

The blade was still the same blade, and he could see his stubborn temper when he spoke. Meilin shrugged and stopped persuading him. Instead, he followed the running blade and rushed into the mountain area, and finally stopped in a valley with a completely shady back.

The Merlin looked around in the air. The area of ​​this valley was very small, and a stream flowed through the center. There should be no large animals here, and the vegetation was lush. It was indeed a good place to hide.

He spread his dark perception outwards, and soon swept the entire valley. On the stone walls at the edge of the pool of the valley, he found a hidden cave.

The blade did not need Merlin's reminder. Under the perception of blood connection, he quickly locked the cave. He climbed up the rock wall with vigorous steps and rushed into the cave. After a moment, a shrill scream came out of the cave.

"Eric! Eric! Listen to me!"

A woman was dragged out of the cave by the blade. She was wearing a white long skirt and had a concave figure, but the long skirt was covered with mud, which was obvious at first glance.

Looking closely, this woman is indeed somewhat similar to Blade's firm face, especially the outline of her eyes, which is almost exactly the same.

"Listen to me! Eric, Dickon is dead, I'm free."

She almost begged to shout at the blade:

"I'm all forced, Eric, I'm your mother, everything I do is for you, whether it's good or bad, please, Eric, please, let me go! I will leave here, I will leave North America, and I will never come back in my life, please."

"Vanessa"

Blade walked to the entrance of the cave, and he turned his head to look at the woman he begged for. He was his last relative in this world. He should have been this woman taking care of his growth, but in Blade's life, there was almost no place for this woman.

I lack even a little impression.

"You're all for yourself."

He squatted down and said to the female vampire who was begging for life:

"You are a cowardly, selfish person. You are willing to be a chess piece of Dicken to lure me into the game. But I don't blame you. You are just a weak woman. I know how cunning and vicious Dicken is. In the face of it, you can't protect yourself at all."

"Your only mistake is Vanessa."

Blade looked at the face of his mother. He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and threw Vanessa's fingers holding his arm away. He said word by word:

"It is your business to be a vampire and pursue your indulgent freedom. You shouldn't try to turn me into someone like you. Your heart is broken."

"I was forced, Eric, that was not my own."

Vanessa seemed to have a premonition of her fate. She screamed and tried to keep Eric, but the blade was much faster than hers. In just a flash, the blade jumped out of the pool.

"Wow"

Accompanied by the howling wind, the female vampire Vanessa was swept up by a ball of dancing black smoke and rushed into the sky.

"Eric, save me! My son, save me!"

Vanessa struggled wildly. She knew what she was about to face, but Blade was just standing by the pool, and he didn't even look up to look.

In the sky above his head, Merlin carried Vanessa to the high clouds, and before them, the brightest sun was jumping into the sky from below sea level.

Dawn is here.

"Don't cry, don't make a fuss, madam."

Merlin said to Vanessa who was screaming in the smoke:

"You are sick, a complication caused by selfishness and cowardice. Deception makes you have a high fever, vicious makes you breathless, cruel makes you feel uncomfortable intestinal symptoms, and encourages people to go against evil to cause your heart to stop. Oh my God, you are almost sick all over. You see, I often say that doing bad things is not good for physical and mental health."

"But it doesn't matter, Dr. Merlin has already developed the best treatment plan for you, so we will start treatment from now on."

The black mist wrapped in Vanessa changed and dispersed at this moment, allowing the warm golden sun to sprinkle on the vampire's body. As the white smoke scattered, Merlin whispered:

"Ms. Vanessa, as a vampire, you may not know yet, the best disinfectant in the world."

"It's sunshine."

"ah!"

A shrill wail that seemed to echo in hell came from the sky, causing the blade standing on the ground to shake all over his body.

The vampire hunter lowered his head and looked at the pool at his feet. He let go of the silver sword in his hand and half-kneeled beside the pool. He closed his eyes and found a eulogy used by ancient vampires to pay tribute to his compatriots in the memory of Vlad III.

He stretched out his finger, dipped in cold water, and gently tapped on his forehead, whispering in a prayer voice:

"I want you to die"

"Therefore I don't have to bear my pain."

"Through this wound"

"The power of blood will rotate from this."

“Accept it.”

"Born with blood."

"In the name of blood."

"Good poem, where did you hear it?"

Behind the blade, Merlin held a wooden box. After the blade's prayer was over, he handed him the wooden box in his hand. Merlin said:

"Find a place to bury her. By the way, before she dies, let me say sorry to you."

"She didn't say that."

The blade took the wooden box, he looked at Meilin and said:

"You are lying to me and trying to make me feel better, right?"

"Just think she said that."

Merlin shook his hand and said:

"It will be painful to always live sober."

"I have done you a favor, and you have to do one too. Don't worry, I just need you to do something very simple for me."

"What's up?"
