"Hit that inside? Well......" Merlin lowered his head, a contemplative expression on his face, and said after a long time, "Anyway, although as a soul body, what you do now doesn't matter to me, but I still hope not to do such a risky thing, not that I said, even if I am in a state of survival first, and there are ten of me, I would not dare to enter Avalon in a completely unfamiliar situation." ”

"Wasn't you supposed to be strong at that time, why didn't you dare to go in there?" Xia Mingdao frowned slightly, and asked puzzledly, "And didn't you ever go to borrow a sword from King Arthur?" ”

"That's because the elves of Avalon serve the Pendragon family, and you think you can really go there casually?" Merlin snorted faintly, "And if it's just Avalon, it's not that serious problem, but the problem now is that Avalon doesn't belong to the scope of the human world, it's a holy place, and it's part of the divine realm, just like we Britain are also part of the human world, you should understand when I say this, right?" ”

Xia Mingdao frowned and was silent, and after a long time, he said, "What do you mean...... Avalon is actually connected to other legendary holy places, and entering Avalon is equivalent to entering the realm of gods? ”

"I don't know how to get to other holy places from Avalon, such as Tirnano and Eden, but that's for sure." Merlin said with a serious face, "I've been in Avalon for so many years, I haven't slept there for nothing, in fact, those few friends of yours didn't ask the main questions, Avalon's place is really not accessible to ordinary people, even if they have mastered magic, well, you call it spiritual power now, right?" Even if you have mastered these abilities, you can't do it, because there are real gods there, so do you dare to rebel against the gods? ”

"You're right, the purpose of our organization's existence is to rebel against the gods." Xia Mingdao said calmly, as if he was talking about an ordinary thing like today's weather.

Merlin was speechless, so he had to shrug his shoulders: "More than a thousand years have made your current people's thinking really ahead of a lot, and the human beings of that era only had a simple fear of the gods, and I don't dare to do this kind of thing against the gods, so come on." ”

Xia Mingdao sat on the edge of the bed and was silent, then stood up, changed out of his pajamas and walked out the door.

"Hey, what are you going to do?" Merlin looked at Xia Mingdao, who was about to walk out of the door, and asked.

"Go out and take a look outside." Xia Mingdao said, "It's not my habit to sit in the room like this, if you want to take a nap, it's your time now." ”

"Hey, did you forget? I can't sleep, it's not mine. Merlin looked a little dissatisfied, his expression was not calm at all, and he couldn't embody the demeanor of a master at all, and even Xia Mingdao even began to wonder whether this guy who was far from his imaginary Merlin was the original or a fake.

"If you're going out, take me with you, well, it's just a ring anyway." Merlin said, floating over the ledge.

Xia Mingdao didn't speak, put the ring in his pocket and walked towards the door.

"Hey, wait a minute." Merlin spoke, and his body turned into a beam of light and burrowed into Nero's pocket, and the ring emitted a faint glow, and then fell silent again.

Walking out of the door of the room, Xia Mingdao stood at the window of the corridor and looked out, it was already around four o'clock in the afternoon, it was impossible to go to that monastery again, and entering it alone again was tantamount to death.

After a moment of silence, Xia Mingdao walked downstairs and left the hotel.

Sitting in the taxi, Xia Mingdao squinted slightly, looking at the scene outside the window, and Merlin was sitting next to him at the moment, but it was not so much sitting as floating, and the taxi driver in front of him would definitely be so frightened that he crashed directly into the sign on the side of the road if he saw this scene.

"I've wanted to say since the morning, the current society is really leaving, and it is actually able to make this kind of iron vehicle, if it was back then, this kind of vehicle would definitely shine on the battlefield." Merlin said as he patted his hand on the door, but his hand went straight through the door to the outside.

"It's just an ordinary car, and in modern society, if it is moved to the battlefield, it only takes a second for this thing to be left with no dregs." Xia Mingdao looked out the window and said lightly, "It's different now than before, no one can use cold weapons such as knives and guns...... Of course, with the exception of our spirit masters and soul killers, but in the real duel between countries, hundreds of kilometers apart, the battle situation has already been decided. ”

Listening to Xia Mingdao's words, Merlin sighed and said with emotion: "Sure enough, time can make a wise man become the most ignorant person, I think I was called an all-knowing and all-powerful person in Britain back then, and I was named a god on earth, and now it seems that maybe a three-year-old child has more knowledge than me." ”

"Times are changing, as if the people of this era don't know much about the things of your time except for Arthur, you, the Knights of the Twelve Round Table." Xia Mingdao said, pausing, "By the way, your history is not recorded in the canons of history, but in the form of mythology, and almost everyone thinks that Arthur's dynasty is just a fictional story. ”

"Is that so?" Hearing Xia Mingdao's words, Merlin smiled noncommittally, "This is not too surprising to me, after all, in the annals of our country, my magic record is also very conservative about the king's divine power, and we hope that what we want to grasp people's hearts is not to rely on this means, but to rely on the king's charm, but Pendragon's dynasty collapsed a little faster than I imagined...... Well, it's like there's an extra blank spot in history. ”

Xia Mingdao was a little surprised by Merlin's open-mindedness, after all, in Xia Mingdao's view, Merlin was a loyal assistant who was willing to go to the trouble for King Arthur, and if he heard that his king did not even have a name left in history, this group of historians might be angry because of their ignorance, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"I said, where are we going now?" Changing the subject, Merlin turned to Xia Mingdao and asked, "Don't you tell me that you plan to go to Avalon again?" ”

"No, I want to go to the West End." Xia Mingdao said calmly, "Today is just to come out for a walk, and I don't want to do anything else." ”

"The West End? What is that place? Merlin asked.

"London's West End is like a Broadway neighborhood with theatres and nightclubs." Xia Mingdao said, feeling that Merlin might not understand, and then added, "There are buildings like the theater of Dionysus in ancient Athens for people to enjoy. ”

"Oh, I see, you're talking about a place to watch a play, right?" Merlin had a look of abrupt realization on his face, "Don't say it, my majesty also likes to watch this thing, his favorite thing to watch back then was ...... "Orestea" trilogy, especially the third act "Nemesis" in it, well, to be honest, I also think it's good." ”

"Yes, it seems that King Arthur was also a lover of art." Xia Mingdao responded.

"Of course, our king is both civil and military, much better than other kings who can only fight wars or sing songs." Merlin looked a little proud, as if all these praises of Arthur had finally been praised for him.

After getting off the bus in the West District, Xia Mingdao paid the taxi driver and left, completely unaware of the driver's strange expression.

Looking at the back of Xia Mingdao leaving, the driver muttered in a low voice: "Hell, what do you say to yourself sitting in the back alone." ”

There are always so many pedestrians on the streets of the West District, walking in the crowd, Xia Mingdao did not stop in front of any colorful shops, in fact, Xia Mingdao did not come here to find a theater to watch a play or find a bar to drink, but he thought that he might be able to relax a little here, so that his heart that was tense because of yesterday's accident could be relieved for a moment.

"I said, can you stop for a moment, is it fun to walk around the street like this?" Merlin followed Xia Mingdao's side, expecting to be a little dissatisfied, "Look at these shops around, each one is good enough, why don't you go in and sit down, at least let me see what modern entertainment facilities are like?" ”

"Entertainment now...... It's a little richer, but I don't think it's as attractive as you were back then. Xia Mingdao said this, he was not perfunctory Merlin, but sincerely said this idea.

"This is your opinion, what about me, you eat grapes and say it's sour, why don't you let me sour too? I may still think that grapes are bitter! Merlin made a protest sound, Xia Mingdao was a little helpless, and found a bar on the side of the road that looked quite magnificent, and planned to go in.

At this time, Xia Mingdao suddenly felt that there was a gaze watching him next to him, and between the stagnant steps, Xia Mingdao quickly turned his head to look, and not far from the side, a young man dressed in what seemed to be a standard uniform was looking at him, with a little surprise in his eyes.

Looking at that young man, Xia Mingdao's brows furrowed slightly, who is he? From the outside, he didn't know this person at all, so why did he stare at himself like this?

"Is there something wrong?" Xia Mingdao looked at him and asked.

The young man looked at Xia Mingdao, and after a long time, he raised his finger and asked with some hesitation, "That...... Your friend, you can fly. ”
