11. Siege(1/2)

"Thank you for your help, Gordon."

Merlin said to the alien on the other end of the phone:

"If you have time, I'll treat you to a meal."

"It's not necessary to eat, we're not that familiar either."

Gordon's response was still cold, he said:

"If you sincerely thank me, let your agents help us find the suffering aliens more carefully."

"You really have race."

Merlin said:

"Maybe in the next few decades, your name will be circulated by aliens as saints. Okay, I won't bother you anymore. If you have any questions, please contact me by phone."

Merlin hung up the phone, and he looked down at the red devil who was locked in black fog. The guy whose teeth had been kicked off by Merlin were being thrown on the floor of the mysterious house.

"Lock him up."

Meilin said to Xuanlan beside him:

"Are there any forbidden demon handcuffs here?"

"some."

Xuanlan picked up the bell on her waist and shook it gently. Several ghost servants with erratic figures rose from under the floor, grabbed the body of the Red Devil, and dragged it to the utility room.

"In order to study the mysteries of magical creatures, Master Leonardo Leonardo left many cages that can confine magic and space. It is safe to lock it up here, Master."

"Um."

Merlin looked back at Lorna who was eating at the luxurious dining table, and he said to Xuanlan:

"Lan, take care of this child for me, I still have some things to be busy with."

"Well, I'll take good care of her."

Xuanlan nodded, Merlin walked to Lorna and said to the little girl:

"You stay here for a while, it's safe here. I'm going to deal with something, okay?"

Lorna raised her head and looked at Meilin hesitantly. After a moment, she nodded reluctantly. She grabbed Meilin's hand and said in a soft tone:

"You have to come back soon."

"Um."

Merlin patted her head and said:

"You can call me Merlin."

"No."

Lorna said stubbornly:

"You want to call me brother."

"Okay, then you're fine."

Merlin smiled at the child who had just walked out of his shadow. He stood up and walked towards the door of the mysterious house. He thought for a while, determined where he was going, and then reached out and pushed open the door.

In front of him was a snowy landscape.

"Bang"

The sound of opening the door sounded behind the storm woman Ororo, causing the white wizard to subconsciously turn back, and finally saw Merlin walking out of a wooden door that was strangely appearing on the snow.

This unique way of appearance surprised Ororo. As a inheritor of an ancient wizard family that has been passed down for thousands of years, she is not unfamiliar with magical strange things, but it is definitely not that simple to use such strange things that can appear anywhere at will.

According to the abilities of alchemists in the wizarding world, it is difficult for them to produce alchemy products of this level. As for those capable alchemists, they are supported by various forces, and they will not spend so much energy to create such things that are meaningless.

"Lorna found it?"

Asked Ororo.

"Um."

Merlin nodded, not saying much about the situation.

He had seen this group of mutants that were too emotional. If he said that he had caught the Red Devil, perhaps these people would even ask him to release the Red Devil in a neurotic way.

To be honest, relying on these teammates who have complex relationships with each other and are difficult to distinguish between enemies and friends is really worried about being teammates.

This can be seen from the love and killing of Professor Charles and Magneto.

They are indeed full of humanity, but this stupid and chaotic humanity is simply deadly for a real war.

"Have you found that place?"

Merlin walked to Ororo, looking into the cold valley covered in snow in the distance, he said:

"There is also that dangerous magic-shaped girl, Riven, have you contacted her?"

"No."

The storm girl whispered:

"Sumers and I came here to investigate. Everyone else is in New York. Hank and Qin are helping the professor treat their injuries. Piott has contacted other X-Men. If we can determine the specific situation, maybe this time, we can rescue those caught compatriots at one time."

"But Riven seems to believe in the Mutant Brotherhood more."

Merlin said something:

"I mean, she encountered a problem and did not come to you right away. It seems that she had some ideological conflicts with you."

"Probably because our actions to rescue our companions are not as frequent as those of the Mutant Brotherhood, so straightforward."

The Storm Girl replied somewhat sadly:

"We are moderates, and we need to consider many factors in our work. We are more inclined to solve problems with moderate means. The radical Magneto does not have so many restrictions. Once we hear that mutants are being held hostage or hurt, they will act immediately."

"They don't care about provoking more conflicts between humans and mutants, but we have to think about them. Can you understand? Mr. Merlin."

Faced with Ororo's question, Merlin observed the valley in front of him and replied:

"certainly."

"In the SHIELD system, the mutant brotherhood is a dangerous force that needs to be closely monitored, and their every move will attract a lot of attention. In 1994, the Kerry invaded the earth. In order to get the support of Magneto, the World Security Council erased the mutant brotherhood from the list of terrorist and extremist organizations, but this does not mean that they transformed into people who can be forgiven."

"But, one thing I'm curious about is that you've ever thought about ending this moderate and radical dispute?"

Merlin looked back at Ororo and said:

"As Professor Charles's proud disciple, what kind of ideas have you inherited from your tutor? What do you think about the future of mutants?"

“We want to solve the problem in a peaceful way.”

Ororo frowned and said:

“There is no doubt that mutants will be integrated into the human world.”

"Well said!"

Merlin nodded in appreciation, and then he asked again:

"Then what are you going to deal with the Mutant Brotherhood? You should understand that as long as you have these extremists, the Mutant will never really want to integrate into this world."

Faced with Merlin's question, Ororo frowned, and she did not answer immediately, which shows that she did not have a clear answer in her heart.

"well."

Merlin sighed, and he took out the black gloves from his pocket and put them on his hands, saying:

"You can dismantle Magneto's evil plan again and again, and you can defeat him and his followers again and again. But if you can't put your heart down to completely solve this trouble that is blocking the mutant and human beings, your beautiful expectations will never become a reality."

"You always say that you are willing to integrate into human civilization, but you don't want to make substantial pushes. The professor takes you to bring the relationship between mutants and humans closer. Magneto only needs to plan an attack to push you and humans away ten thousand. What's the point of such a stalemate?"

"Isn't it too naive to just do things if you don't want to get blood on your hands, right?"

"They are compatriots after all."

Ororo could not resist Merlin's series of sharp questions, and she replied with some difficulty:

"They are mutants, they are just bewitched."

"No!"

Merlin looked back at Ororo indifferently, and he pushed his glasses and said seriously:

"Ororo, you are a human!"

"The word mutant has been created to separate you from human civilization. Having this and that ability does not mean that you are separated from the category of human beings. If you don't think you are human, then I think Professor Charles' education for you is too failure."

"I'll tell you this way. As the same category as 'human', everything is easy to talk about."

"Once you leave this group yourself, internal contradictions will turn into opposition contradictions From this point of view, the aliens are much wiser than you."

"Okay, I have no intention of discussing these race-related things with you here."

Merlin's body turned into drifting smoke, penetrated into the valley ahead, and his voice echoed in the smoke:

"I'll go investigate the situation, you can wait here or come with me."
