18. The frog at the bottom of the well [48/40]

In the hall of the Trident Building, the light of the setting sun shines on Meilin.

In the distance, the battle between the Blade Warrior and the Vampire Monster is not over yet.

But the heroes who made their moves had joined the battlefield. Diana and Thor blasted the monster into the ground and were beaten by Hulk who rushed out of the ground.

The scene was very hot, but Merlin was no longer interested in watching it.

He closed his eyes and rested, a magic of ancient bodies blocked the hall on the highest level, blocking the entry of the captain and Batman.

He doesn't want to explain anything.

Because the game is not over yet

Far from it.

It's impossible to be that simple

But there was a devil chattering behind Merlin, which made him extremely bored.

"You are so tenacious. I swear by the old devil's real name. I haven't seen such a tenacious soul for many years."

"Oh my God, I was hit and surrounded by the most powerful people in the world, and betrayed by old friends. But I can still rely on my own arrangements to deal with the moves calmly."

"But I guess your heart must be very painful. I killed my best friend with my own hands and saved others."

The big devil chuckled, it said:

"To be honest, I think you can do better. You shouldn't have killed Pierce in anger just now. You awaken him and he is willing to bear all the blame?"

"You can continue to be a big hero."

"Why are you so impulsive?"

Mephist took a step forward, and it stood on the line of light and shadow.

It looked at Merlin sitting on a bloody chair with her back facing it.

It requires little eyes to feel Merlin's indescribable mood at this moment.

That must be very heavy.

"I once told poor Pierce that if you can stick to the end, then my grudge against you will be written off"

The big devil made a tearing move, it said:

"Okay, you stick to the end, you kill my contractor, you win"

"Merlin, you won this game between you and Pierce and me."

"Win the game, lose everything"

"Look, a broken soul entangled with despair and pain."

Mephist laughed, it laughed so hard that it leaned back and forth, it said:

"I lost, but why am I not sad at all?"

"This is a warning! Merlin."

"If you and your children dare to provoke the devil, they will have to pay a terrible, terrible, and painful price, which will make you remember the price of your life!"

The smile on Mephist's face turned into a vicious and cruel face. It clenched its claws and said to Melin:

"The grudge between us has been written off."

"Of course, if you want to play with the old devil again, you and your restless children want to continue to intervene in the battle against the King of Hell, and the old devil will not mind playing with you again!"

"Did you say enough?"

Merlin's cold voice echoed in the hall, he said:

"If you say enough, you can get out."

"I don't have time to deal with you now, and there are still 'guests' later."

"Um?"

Merlin's calm and excessive attitude surprised the great devil who came to laugh at him.

In its expectation, after suffering such a big loss, Merlin should be furious when he saw it, and was angry and wanted to rush into the Mephist Hell to kill it.

But now

What's the situation?

After it threw so many harsh words, was Merlin's reaction so cold?

Is he crazy because he is too stimulating and suffering too much?

“What guest?”

The devil asked with a strange expression:

"It's over, Merlin, Hydra is dead, SHIELD is rescued, and the Insight Plan is over, Pierce and his factions will be liquidated."

"Of course, except for the fact that you killed the President of the World in full view, it's a bit troublesome to do so."

"The clown is dead, he is killed by the madman you sent, and it's all over."

"That's stupid!"

Merlin leaned on the hilt with one finger, and he closed his eyes and leaned against the chair.

He said:

"The most powerful creature in hell is in the end, just a bug crawling on the ground. That's it. Mephist."

"You rushed to my eyes and showed off your might, mocking me wantonly, and trying to hit me with words. It was like everything was under control, but you were just a pawn."

"No, you can't even be a chess piece."

"You are just a proud frog in the well."

"Hey, let's say it clearly!"

Mephist said dissatisfied:

"You can mock me, but there must be evidence. Just saying something arrogant and unrestrained can't change anything."

"The fact is that under my arrangement, you experienced a very painful and bad event, and you almost lost everything except for a dispensable victory."

"Your beliefs have been destroyed by me, your efforts have been disrupted by me, and the path you insist on has collapsed."

"There is no Hydra in this world. You cut off the last head with your own hands; but there will be no more S.H.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.I.E.

"Is what I said wrong? Isn't that true?"

"Yes, that's the truth."

Merlin nodded indifferently, and he looked at the sunset in front of him.

He whispered:

"But if you want to hear something more realistic, let me tell you."

"You are all born out of me."

"This world, everything in the world, everything is revolving around me."

"I made those preparations, and every step I performed was to ingest the victory I wanted, but this victory was not something you could give me!"

"What I pursue is something you dare not even think about."

"And now, you feel complacent that the game is over, but in reality, it's just an intermission."

"The person who plays games with me has never been you, Mephist, and my opponent is not you at this moment."

Merlin closed his eyes and tried hard to mobilize the huge magic power to repair the stinging pain on his soul.

He no longer intends to say more to the great devil.

So he summed up softly:

"This game is about the world and even the stars. You are just one of them. It is no different from a stone or a piece of paper. If you still don't understand, then I will say it more clearly!"

"you"

“I’m not worthy yet!”

"Well, I can be sure now that you are really crazy."

The great devil didn't expect Merlin to say such a thing, and his eyes turned, saying with great regret:

"I'm still looking forward to getting more interesting after this crazy day. I didn't expect you to be that way."

"hehe."

"Go back to your hell, and thank me from the bottom of my heart for the response that this world was born and will survive because of me."

“Every day you are still alive from now on is not because you are strong enough”

"Just because I'm kind enough."

"But don't take that for granted."

Merlin chuckled softly.

He sighed and said:

"I love this world, including its flaws"

The corners of the big devil's eyes twitched, and he found that after killing Pierce, Merlin entered a very strange state.

How to describe it?

It seems like it suddenly becomes a little unrecognizable.

The guy's tone of speaking seemed to speak to a pet kept in a jar.

Who did he think he was!

"Aren't you leaving?"

A few seconds later, Merlin said in surprise:

"Are you going to wait here to see everything continue? Or are you waiting for me to throw a few harsh words as accompaniment to send you off?"

"Okay, since you want it, I'll give it to you."

Merlin cleared his throat and said in a cold voice:

"Mefist, go back to your hell and pray to all the existence you can think of."

"Pray that we will not meet again."

"But if I'm lucky enough, or you're unfortunate enough, then poor Mephist"

"Watch me next time, it will be when your existence is erased, and it will be erased by me with my own hands!"

"Go, pretend to be a ghost!"

The big devil curled his lips.

It simply did not believe Merlin could do everything he claimed.

In its opinion, Merlin was completely crazy and there was nothing worth targeting for it.

Moreover, the other party has already started to drive people away, and it is not in line with Mephist's identity and status if he stays alone.

It wanted to throw a few more harsh words to scare Merlin.

But seeing Merlin's appearance of not caring about anything, Mephist suddenly felt that it was boring.

Someone must cooperate in things like urging fire and threats.

If you throw harsh words alone, you have no signs?

The big devil snorted, and it hooked its fingers and picked up the falling golden apple from the ground.

Then he waved his hand gently, and was placed in other parts of the Trident Building, including the golden apple in the clown's hand, was collected into its palm at this moment.

Five golden apples swayed around Mephist's palms, like the most beautiful work of art.

This thing is great, you can see through this incident.

If this thing is used well, it will definitely cause many major events.

But just as Mephist turned around and was about to leave.

Merlin suddenly said:

"Speaking of this, I still have a question, how did you get those things?"

"Hmm? You said this?"

The big devil turned around and said with a sinister smile:

"This is my baby. I was really lucky to get them. A few months ago, one day, I was walking in a harbor, and suddenly there was someone."

"Oh, stop talking, I get it."

Merlin raised his hand and interrupted the big devil's nagging description.

He stood up in the sun, his face extremely pale, as if he had just experienced a serious illness.

He looked back at the five golden apples in the hand of the great devil, and he said:

"I've been guessing what form the ending will come in, it turns out they want to borrow your hand to achieve it."

"What the hell are you talking about?"

The big devil could not keep up with Merlin's idea. He took back the golden apple in his hand and said fiercely:

"You'd better make an appointment with a psychologist to show you what you are crazy about, you're in fantasy."

"Click"

Before Mephist finished speaking, a crisp, clear sound of rupture came from its hands.

It lowered its head in shock.

I saw the golden apples wrapped in my hand shattered at the same time, and the marks along the surface were like broken nut shells.

The orange light burst out from the cracks, just like the five small suns.

"Healing! Healing!"

The Great Devil was a little busy throwing his magic on the surface of the shattered golden apple, but the golden apple that should have healed rapidly under the magic of the Great Devil was as if it was completely broken and was not controlled at all.

It was as if the terrifying magic power of the great devil had completely lost its effect at this moment.

"Stop busy, you can't fix it."

"I didn't choose any, so they were angry, they wanted to teach me some lessons."

Merlin waved his hand, and he stood there, moving his shoulders, as if he was going to relax before doing something.

Behind him, amid the terrifying screams of the great devil, the energy of the five golden apples gathered together like the bursting sun.

Then spread in all directions.

As the orange light dissipated, Meilin looked at her feet.

In that square, Tony, who had just recovered from his sanity, was being healed, and the heroes were besieging the blood-sucking monster who was still fighting.

But at the moment when the orange light splashed out like the sunshine of dawn and enveloped everything, the heroes almost all fell into stagnation at the same time.

"What a pity."

"You are just awake but you are going to be beaten again."

Merlin moved his hands and pulled out the angry war halberd that was inserted behind him. The black symbiosis rolled away on his body, and the magic power belonging to the Three Palaces and the Three Demons was also mobilized.

The tangled black mist caused a series of tiny dark storms in the hall.

Between the black mist, Merlin tightened his weapon, and he looked at the heroes struggling in the ocean of orange light, and said:

"Friends, don't worry, as a farewell gift, I will try to do it lighter."

"What the hell is going on?"

The phantom of the great devil Mephist looked at the golden apple fragments in the palm of his hand a little crazy.

It was certain that in that second just now, something changed that made it feel horrified.

Perhaps, the craziest guess in its heart has been verified at this moment.

What it said to Rocky in hell, this world is too quiet, it is a bit abnormal

"You know, right!"

The great devil rushed to Merlin and shouted at Merlin:

"You've always known it? Tell me, what the hell is going on!"

"Yes I know."

Merlin ignored the crazy devil and said softly:

"I said everything, you're just a frog in the well."

"Well, it must be a frog and it's not good to feel good, but I can't do anything about it."

"They want to put some pressure on me, want to force me into a desperate situation, and then go on the path they arranged, just like before."

"Born for gambling, die for gambling, and be the most miserable chess piece."

"But they think"

Merlin took something out of his pocket, he said:

"Will I continue to be at their mercy after I have reached this point?"

"Come on! Let me see what other tricks they can play"

A very relaxed expression flashed across his face. He reached out and patted the sluggish devil beside him, and he said:

"Escape, Mephist"

"You can't handle the next scene."

"The time for a showdown has come, and I can play only one card or one death!"
