In the evening, Merlin drove his black Raptor pickup, which was like a small tank, and sent little Peter and May home.

At the door of the apartment, Merlin lowered the window of the car, waved goodbye to little Peter, and said to his nephew:

"Be obedient and go to school well, you know? I'll see you next week. ”

"Uh-huh."

Peter, who was holding a large robot toy that his uncle had bought for him, obediently waved his hand to Merlin, and he shouted:

"Goodbye, uncle! Goodbye Sister Raven, goodbye Sister Lorna! And Daisy and Matt, goodbye! ”

Merlin breathed a sigh of relief as May walked back to the apartment with Peter, and in the light of the streetlights, the windy car started with the low roar of engines, carrying the family to his home.

"Matt, has Ava been looking for you lately?"

Merlin asked, pretending to be on the steering wheel.

In the back seat, Matt, who had been silent with sunglasses, shook his head and said to Merlin:

"No, but Ava called me last week and she said she's being treated, and she might recover in a while, and she'll come straight to me at school then."

"Well, that's good."

Merlin nodded, and he said:

"Don't forget to bring her home for a meal, and the last time I went to the parent-teacher conference, the little fat man in the same dormitory as you, your only friend since childhood, can also be invited over."

"Forget it, Merlin."

Matt held his guide stick, and he whispered:

"I'm afraid that Fuji will be frightened, and Goo and Frank at home are like monsters to ordinary people."

"Okay, whatever you want."

Merlin glanced at Matt in the rearview mirror and said:

"I also heard Lorna say, you're going to apply for law at Columbia University? Need my help clearing the relationship? ”

"No, no."

Matt was a good boy, and because he had been through many reasons since he was a child, he was very independent, and he was much more mature than his peers, and he said to Merlin:

"My grades are enough."

"Well, call me if you need to."

Merlin pushed his glasses, and he looked at Lorna, who was drowsy in the co-pilot, and said:

"Lorna, I heard Lan say that you have made new friends?"

"Huh?"

Lorna was awakened, she looked up at Merlin, and then pouted:

"Lan is really annoying, she will say anything to you. Well, I made a new friend, the red-haired big sister... Wanda, she left me a phone number, we'll be chatting in the next few days or something. ”

"What did you talk about?"

Merlin asked, like a competent older brother:

"Did Wanda invite you to the UK?"

"Yes, Wanda said she had a house in Glasgow and invited me to stay for a few days."

Lorna played with her fingers and replied in an unhappy tone:

"But I refused, because neither Raven nor Lan would let me go."

"They care about you, too, silly girl."

Merlin patted Lorna's hair, and he said:

"After a while, when I'm free, I'll take you to England... Maybe we can take time to travel as a family, I have a few children in the UK, they are all married now, maybe we should also find time to visit them, I haven't been in touch for years. ”

Merlin didn't speak again, and in the rearview mirror, he saw that Daisy in the back seat had fallen asleep leaning on Raven, and he had to send Daisy back to Mr. and Mrs. Johnson first.

Daisy's father, Dr. Johnson, has been in poor health for the past few years, and the man has been in the middle of his body and has experienced the worst things in the world, and he may be called by his God in a few years.

However, the last period of life can be spent in the company of his family, and this ending is not bad.

An hour later, Merlin settled the children and went to the Mystery House.

Xuanlan, as ever, was waiting for him.

"The Black Bolts left with Miss Crystal."

The housekeeper said to Merlin:

"They seem to have made a deal with the 'Whiplash', maybe the crystal will start to heal, just a few days ago."

"Well, it seems that the couple convinced Andrew and Melinda, which is good."

Merlin went to the fireplace, and he sat down on the couch, and said to Xuanlan:

"Turn on the magical defense of the mystery house, and I'm going to talk to the god of dread in Scati's Warhammer."

"Hmm."

Xuanlan took a step back and quickly walked into the magic control center of the mysterious house, and a moment later, several special defensive circles were activated, and the house located in the chaotic dimension dived deeper and deeper into this mysterious latitude little by little.

After everything was ready, Merlin took the Scati Warhammer from his pocket.

He placed the golden, Asgardian rune-carved warhammer on the table, presumably because it had been activated, and the surface of the warhammer was constantly beating with purple arcs, making it look like it was full of an unusual temperament.

Merlin looked at the hammer in front of him, and he reached out his finger and touched the surface of the hammer.

"Aren't you going to say something? Mr. Kuhl. ”

Merlin mentally said to the wisp of will that was hidden in the hammer of Scati:

"The Asgardian Divine Domain is about to send a searcher, I think she is here for you, although we have had a good time working together in the past few times, but you see, I am just an ordinary earthling, I can't fight against the power from the Asgardian Divine Domain... So if they lock me down, maybe I'll just hand it over neatly. ”

"Then you'll die too!"

The gloomy, old man-like voice rose in Merlin's mind.

Along with that voice rang out, there were countless illusions of fear, a strange force that reverberated through Merlin's body, constantly stirring up the most fearful things in his heart.

Sannomiya...

When Merlin's mind echoed the figure of the Three Palaces Demon, the Three Palaces magic power in his body also began to surge, brutally expelling this weak fear divine power from Merlin's body.

But Merlin wasn't angry.

He behaved rather calmly, and said to Kuhl, the god of fear:

"I'm not going to die, Lord Kuhl."

"Before I came into contact with you, I also had some friendships with some important people in Asgard, and the last time I used you was to expel the Inhuman evil gods who invaded Earth, which was a righteous act... I mean, if I use my connections, maybe I'll get away with it? ”

"But you, hehe, when this warhammer is taken over to the Asgardian Divine Domain, I think you may never turn over again."

Kuhl's will did not answer.

Merlin was also very patient, he leaned back on the couch, took out the magic book of the Finger of Death and flipped through it, although he had mastered the magic, the more he knew about it, the more skilled he was at using the Finger of Death.

It's the same as playing a game, the higher the proficiency, the less mana and energy will be consumed when casting the magic, and of course, this consumption will not be reduced indefinitely.

After a few minutes, the purple arc on the surface of the Scati hammer pulsed more violently, and Kuhl's voice resounded, this time gently, at least much milder than before.

"You didn't have to tell me about this, you could have given the original sin hammer to the Investigator in Asgard, but you didn't... So, this matter, can we talk about it? ”

"Of course, we can talk."

Merlin said as he flipped through the magic book:

"I'm a wizard, and I know that there is no such thing as good or evil power, so I chase all the power that can be used. But with all due respect, Lord Kuhl, with the power you lent me before, it will be really difficult for me to help you. ”

"You're so greedy!"

Kuhl Says:

"You've put three evil powers in your body at once, and you're trying to control them for your advantage, you're probably the craziest mortal I've ever met..."

"Crazy?"

Merlin sneered:

"It seems like you haven't met another friend of mine, but since he's gone, it's kind of boring to talk about. Let's be more honest, Mr. Kuhl. ”

"The power of the ternary system is quite useful."

Merlin's fingers twitched on the hammer, letting the purple arc of light wrap around his fingers, and he said:

"I want to keep that power, and if I can, I want to get a little bit more. Say, what do you want me to do for you? ”

"Open my seal, and in the deepest trench in this world, guarded by a horde of wild beasts..."

There was a hint of urgency in Kuhl's tone:

"Before the Investigators of Asgard arrive, open it!"

"No, I refuse."

Merlin closed the magic book in his hand, and said to Kull:

"First of all, I don't know who you are, second, I don't know what you want to do, and finally, if even the Asgardians are so cautious about you, then I think I have reason to be more cautious."

"So, let's change the requirements."

"You're insincere!"

Kuhl roared to:

"You're just blackmailing me with a Scati hammer..."

"Threatened? Don't say it so badly, Mr. Kuhl. ”

Merlin said solemnly:

"I'm the one who holds the hammer of original sin, I have some special powers that can resist your manipulation and interference with my will, if an ordinary person who doesn't know how to get this hammer, I'm afraid he would have become your slave long ago... I mean, you were the one who tried to 'brainwash' me first, you were the one who showed malice first, and I was just lucky enough to catch your weakness. ”

"So don't act like I'm bullying a lonely old man, we're just willing to gamble and lose. Mr. Kuhl, it was you who made a regrettable decision when we first came into contact, and you put yourself in the awkward situation in which you were present. ”

Merlin Says:

"You should have a clear idea of where you are now, I don't plan to say anything more threatening, it would make us look very unseemly, so let's ask for another one. We can exchange it at an equivalent price. ”

"Good! Then hide this hammer. ”

Kuhl hesitated for a few minutes, and then he seemed calmer, and said to Merlin:

"You're not really given the Godhead of Dread, so as long as you don't take out the Scati Warhammer in front of those Asgardians, they won't be able to find you, and they'll at most reinforce my seal, but it doesn't matter, as long as the Scati Warhammer is still there, my consciousness can be transmitted through this Warhammer."

"Then, you bastard, 10 years, I will allow you to keep this warhammer for 10 years, and after 10 years, I want you to find a new owner for this warhammer..."

Kuhl Says:

"You coward is not willing to help me take revenge on Odin, the god king of Asgard, it doesn't matter, I can wait, there will always be someone willing to help me."

"I know, you are the defender of this world, and I have no intention of touching your world, you see, there has always been only one object of my revenge, and that is Odin! That's my brother, who kills his relatives like a beast..."

"Sounds good."

Merlin rubbed his chin as he said to Kuhl:

"But these are two requirements..."

"So when you need it, I'll give you two powers!"

The dreadful serpent seems to have a dislike for the insatiable Merlin, saying:

"Of course, if you want more..."

"You all like to play with this tune."

Merlin snorted:

"Do you have to pay more if you want more? I'm familiar with this drama, but I don't think I'll need more, your divine power, after all, is only one-third of the power of the three phases, too much will be very troublesome. ”

"Hehe, Merlin, you know, and you can do it, it's a completely different thing..."

In a strange tone, Orochi Kuhl said:

"The temptation of power is endless, you chase it, you end up drowning in it, I've seen too many, many of them."

"Well, you old man, it sounds like a story."

Merlin's fingers touched the handle of Scati's hammer, and between his fingers, a flash of purple lightning flickered, and he said:

"Now that we've signed the contract, Mr. Kull, you see, there's still a long time left tonight, so why don't you share your story with me."

"You said that Odin is your brother, you should have told me that you were originally the king of the divine domain of Asgard, so that proves that Odin is a usurper? Why would he do that? Why did you fail? ”

Merlin Says:

"Let's talk about it, I know that it must be lonely for a person to be trapped in a place where there is no light of day for thousands of years, so I think you will be very eager to share this story with others... It must be a legendary story. ”

After a few minutes of dead silence, just as Merlin thought Kuhl had rejected his request, the voice of the Great Serpent of Dread suddenly rang out:

"Well, if you want to hear it."

"Of course, I'm listening."

Merlin waved his hand, and soon a ghost servant brought a snack and drink, and he leaned back on the couch and waved his hand at the Scati Warhammer, and said:

"Then tell me your story... I'm listening. ”
