"Your eyes..."

In Fury's office, Merlin frowned, staring at the director in front of him.

Fury was scratched in his left eye for teasing the orange cat, which only a few people in S.H.I.E.L.D. know. Fury unanimously claimed that his left eye was blind during the battle.

Despite wearing a black blindfold, the scar on Fury's eye could not be concealed, and the scratched scar was so hideous that it penetrated Fury's upper and lower eyelids and eye sockets, making anyone who looked at it feel terrified.

Merlin had also seen Fury without an eye patch.

His left eye was infected by something carried on Gollum's paws, which caused a cataract-like haze to appear in the eyeball, but the eye was intact and his vision was not affected.

Before Carol left, she told Merlin that Fury might also have other abilities because of Gollum's claws, after all, this kind of thing is really difficult to deal with.

But after so many years, Fury has maintained his ordinary personality... Until tonight, this persona collapsed.

At this moment, in Fury's left eye, in the center of the pale eyeball, a black light was lingering and beating, it was not a fixed, dotted light, more like a force that rotated irregularly in the eyeball.

After staring into Fury's eyes for several seconds, Merlin felt as if his will was facing an eerie vortex.

The light in his eyes seemed to draw Merlin's thoughts from him.

"The spiritual temptation that comes with it, as well as the guidance of the will and mind, is like the 'natural temptation' of those adult succubi, which can be maintained without additional activation... It's really amazing to use it with language inducement. ”

Merlin whispered:

"Just like yours, you're so obnoxious about your abilities, Fury."

"One another."

Fury put back on his blindfold, leaned back in his chair, picked up a book on psychology from his hand, and said to Merlin as he read it:

"I don't know if it's good or bad, but with this thing, it always feels a lot smoother when talking to other people."

"Hehe, maybe I should call you 'Persuader' in the future?"

Merlin chuckled, he stood up, and said to Fury:

"One more thing, I don't know if Hill passed on my word to you, Fury, about your very dishonest student... Amanda. Waller. ”

"You're talking about the Heavenly Eye Society?"

Fury said without raising his head:

"Amanda is only the commander of the Celestial Eye Society, Merlin, the real leader of that organization is quite big. His name is Tefrey, a former battle hero who maintains a mysterious connection with a mysterious figure... Tefrey is a rare immortal, Merlin, who has been active since the First World War, and has been active until now. ”

"He used to be with Steve. Rogers has fought side by side, and in fact, until now, we don't know what is the reason why Mr. Tefrey has survived so long and has so much energy. But one thing is for sure, it shouldn't be the power of technology. ”

"You're saying that the leader of the Celestial Eye Society is actually a mysterious figure on the magic side?"

Merlin moved his finger and said:

"It sounds tricky, but Fury, they're meddling in our work, Amanda. Waller is like a wild boar rushing across the farm, and if left unchecked, she will smash all the fences we have built so hard... I mean, you can talk to her first and persuade her. ”

Merlin's tone became cold:

"If she doesn't listen to the advice, I'll find another way."

"Merlin!"

Fury said in an accentuated tone:

"Amanda is a public official..."

"I know."

Merlin turned to the door, and without looking back, he said to Fury:

"That's why I'm asking you to talk to her... This order, the alien new order on the land of North America, was established by us through all obstacles, so many warriors sacrificed for this cause, so much blood, so many deaths..."

"Now casually popping up a person I don't know is going to pick fruit..."

"Is it really that easy?"

———————————————————

After the conversation with Fury, Merlin returned home, and it was the wee hours of the morning, and he was a little tired.

He took a shower, changed into a pair of black pajamas, and planned to get a good night's sleep before dawn, but as soon as he lay down in bed, Merlin was awakened.

The voice of Xuanlan, the housekeeper of the mystery house, sounded in Merlin's mind:

"Merlin's master, Miss Zatana has come to visit, and she has come to return what she has taken."

"Oh."

Merlin sat up from the bed, took out the key to the secret house, walked to the door, twisted the lock, and stepped into the secret room.

Zatanna was already waiting for her in the living room.

She is still dressed as a magician, with a well-cut black and white tuxedo, and bold and seductive black fishnet stockings, paired with a pair of high boots, which perfectly complements the tall figure of this magical girl.

"Hello, Mr. Raven."

Seeing Merlin walk into the living room, Zatana immediately stood up and leaned slightly towards Merlin.

Looking at the collar of his coat, the dazzling white flower made Merlin look away once again.

Perhaps, it is time to remind Miss Zatanna to pay attention to her dress.

She's a wizard after all...

"Well, you're good, Miss Magician."

Merlin waved his hand, signaling that she didn't need to be so polite, he walked to the fireplace, sat on the sofa, Xuanlan handed over a cup of hot tea at a moderate temperature in time, Merlin took a sip of tea, and said:

"Has it been going well lately? Zatanna, did the page help? ”

"Well, it helped me a lot."

Zatanna took out the rolled parchment from the handbag she was carrying, handed it back to Merlin, and said:

"It is the Dark Book that claims to be the collection of all the knowledge in the stars, and it is the perfect answer to every question I have about the occult... Aside from the occasional quirky conditions that can feel confusing and awkward. ”

Speaking of which, Zatana cautiously peeked at Merlin and found that Mr. Raven didn't notice anything, which made Zatanna breathe a sigh of relief.

"I'll put it in the mystery room."

Merlin took the rolled parchment, and he stroked the pages of the Dark Divine Book in his hand that had left him for a month, and he said to Zatana:

"Your knowledge of the occult is solid, and your talent is extremely high, maybe soon, I won't be able to teach you... If you have any other questions, you can always come to the Mystic House and ask the Dark Book for help. ”

He turned his head to look at Xuanlan, and he said to the butler:

"I remember that the mystery house can be marked for visitors, right? Orchid. ”

"Hmm"

Standing beside Merlin, the meticulous housekeeper nodded, and she said to Merlin in a reserved manner:

"I can tag guests who are approved by the host, and they only need to find a door when they need it and get permission from the host to enter the mystery house. Of course, the process of opening the door requires the guests to pay their own magic to establish a connection with the mystery house... The amount of magic needed is huge, but Miss Zatanna's magic should be sufficient, and her bloodline is also connected to the mystery house, so she can easily enter this place. ”

"Okay."

Merlin nodded, and he said:

"Then mark Miss Zatanna."

He said:

"After all, this was once her home."

"What an honor, Mr. Raven."

Zatanna stood up in surprise and thanked Merlin very earnestly, she bowed to Merlin, and this time, the scenery on her chest was almost in front of Merlin's eyes, Merlin could even see the black lace corset, and she could smell a violet flower.

This made him a little embarrassed.

"If there's nothing else going on, I'll go first."

Merlin coughed lightly, and he said to Zatana:

"I still have a few trials to complete, and we'll get back to you next time, Miss Zatanna."

"Wait, Mr. Raven."

Seeing that Merlin was leaving, Zatanna was a little anxious, and she still had two tasks to be alone with Merlin.

She subconsciously grabbed Merlin's wrist, which made Merlin look back at her.

"Uh, I mean..."

Miss Magician immediately let go of her hand, and she said to Merlin, a little embarrassed:

"The five magical curiosities promised to you last time are ready."

She said:

"But those things are not easy to carry, so I put them in the family collection, can you come with me to my estate and bring it back?" By the way, take a look at my lab, I've recently collected a whole set of old seals, and some self-drawn occult summoning arrays, I don't know if those things are correct. ”

"Don't go!"

Just as Zatana's request was finished, another voice suddenly sounded in Merlin's head.

It's Raven.

Raven is far away at Xavier's Talented Junior Academy.

There was a hint of anger in Merlin's sister's tone, and she screamed at Merlin:

"You drove Elsa away! You bastard, you still have a meeting with the little demon while we're not home! Merlin, you're really too presumptuous! ”

"Raven... Elsa wasn't driven away by me. ”

Merlin explained with some dismay:

"She left on her own, alas, you are still young, you don't understand this."

"Anyway, you are not allowed to go!"

Raven Says:

"I don't want those five strange things! You give me the honest stay at home! I'll keep an eye on you until Elsa returns! ”

"Okay."

Merlin replied:

"But it's a pity to give up the reward just like this, I'll let Xuanlan get it, no problem, right?"

"Hmph, that's pretty much it."

Raven's tired business slowly subsided in Merlin's mind, and he looked up and said to Zatana apologetically:

"Forget it tonight, I have some things to attend to."

He said to the housekeeper beside him:

"Lan, can you help me go to Miss Zatanna's manor and pick up those strange things?"

"Well, of course."

Xuanlan said calmly:

"The needs of the master are my duty."

Merlin waved goodbye to Miss Magician, who was full of disappointment, and then went back to his bedroom, and at the moment when the door of the mysterious house closed, Xuanlan, who had watched her master leave, turned her head, she looked at Zatanna, and after a few seconds, she suddenly said:

"What do you want to do?"

"Huh?"

Zatanna subconsciously replied:

"I don't want to do anything, I just..."

"No, you have a purpose!"

Xuanlan interrupted Miss Magician's explanation, and she said calmly:

"Even if I don't rely on the perception of the mystery house, I can see a trace of loss in your expression. Zatana, you have some other thoughts about Master Merlin, well, maybe not voluntarily, but there is no doubt that you are trying to get closer to him... Why? ”

"Because... Because of some secrets that can't be told. ”

Miss Magician glanced at the parchment that Merlin had placed on the wooden shelf in front of the shelter, and she bit her lip and said to Xuanlan:

"But I have absolutely no ill will."

"You're doing something dangerous, Zatana. Zatara. ”

Probably because of Zatanna's ancestor Da. Finch's reason, Xuanlan's unexpected tolerance for this magical girl, with some elders looking at the younger ones, she pushed the monocle clipped in the eye socket, and she said to Zatana:

"No, you're doing a lot of dangerous things."

"You're chasing a spirit that can easily destroy the world, you're trying to save your father from the most dangerous place in the multiverse, and right now, you're still trying to get into the life of Master Merlin..."

With a hint of warning, Xuanlan said to Zatana:

"Do you know why I'm saying these three things together?"

"Because they're about the same level of danger... Don't underestimate Master Merlin, Zatanna, the secrets behind him are beyond your imagination. ”

"And how do you know?"

Zatanna asked with a puzzled face:

"You're just the spirit of the Mystery House... You can't even beat me. ”

"Yes, I'm weak."

Xuanlan waved her hand indifferently and said:

"But don't forget, I'm also a 'spirit.' In the realm of the occult, I can see, I can perceive symbolism that you flesh and blood creatures cannot perceive. ”

"Everything in the world has its own special symbol, representing the reflection of their reality in the occult realm, such as the sister of Merlin's master, the dangerous Hell's Maiden Raven, whose symbol is the arrogant black raven, and you, Miss Zatana, your symbol is the violet flower, which represents mystery and knowledge, which is inherited from your bloodline."

Xuanlan glanced back at the closed door, and she whispered:

"But Merlin the master is special..."

"He has no fixed symbol."

"Or, with my ability, I can't see his symbol at all, I can only feel that with the passage of time, his symbol is constantly changing, like..."

"A tumbling dice, every time it falls, the fate of Merlin's master is deflected."

She looked at Zatanna, and she said very seriously:

"I'm nosy for your ancestors' sake, Miss Zatana, stop your approach to Merlin's master, and you're like an ignorant moth flying toward the flames that will consume you and devour you."

"Is it really that serious?"

Zatanna's face was a little pale, and she was frightened by Xuanlan's statement.

This is normal, and what Xuanlan said is enough to frighten anyone who has even the slightest study in the field of occultism.

"Of course."

Xuanlan nodded, and she said calmly:

"Get out as soon as you can while you can get out."

After receiving Xuanlan's affirmative answer, Zatanna's voice trembled with a hint of trembling, and she looked at the closed contract locks on her elbows, and she said with a desperate face:

"Your suggestion is good, Black Orchid. But I... I've been... There's no going back. ”
