Page 58 Assassinations - The First Wave

Merlin didn't really care if the two idiots were really ninjas, and after "solving" them and leaving a small mark, he put the two of them aside for the time being, because he had other issues that needed more attention, such as measuring how much money his life was worth in the hearts of his parents.

Merlin remembered correctly, in the second year of his life, his mother gave birth again, giving birth to a sibling, a healthy baby boy, and the perfect heir that his mother had dreamed of—normal and obedient. In the years that followed, his mother focused more on competing for power with his father's other wives and concubines, and with her brilliant mind and the support of her own family, and with her father's encouragement, she easily eliminated the women and the family behind them, and buried several of Merlin's half-brothers with her own hands.

During that time, Merlin's life was the most comfortable, and his mother did not put too much energy into him, so he spent his early childhood relatively safely under the care of his grandfather. But when his mother had removed all the obstacles that had hindered her intimacy with her father—the stupid women who surrounded him and their children and their families, oh, by the way, a part of her own family—she rightly turned her attention back to Merlin, the monster she had born, the monster that threatened her beloved son's rightful heirship.

Although Merlin has repeatedly made a formal statement and even signed an agreement to renounce the identity of the heir, at the same time completely renounce all the inheritance shares, renounce his surname, and deviate from his own bloodline. But these promises that fell on a blank sheet of paper had no effect at all on the woman, who believed not in promises, only in dead people.

Because as long as Merlin is alive, as long as the blood that flows through him is indeed the actual leader of the two families, then there will always be someone who can take advantage of the question, and there will always be someone who can find a reason to challenge her beloved son's position as the first heir. Although she carried out the cleansing of the family over and over again, using bloody and cold corpses to keep her mouth shut forever, every time she closed a mouth, there were always more mouths that wanted to resist her...... She couldn't bear it anymore, and after years of delay, she finally couldn't hold back her manic killing**, and she finally decided to solve her last threat once and for all.

Merlin has survived not only because of his grandfather's protection, but also because the old man does not have much real power and influence in the family, except that he is the father of the head of the family, that is, Merlin's father, he is more often a disgraceful symbol of the family, a despicable guy who disgraces the family and humiliates the surname.

What has really sheltered Merlin to this day are the other powerful people in the family who are dissatisfied with his biological mother, the opponents of her mother's family, the remnants and relatives of the family that her mother has eliminated, and the enemies and obstacles that her mother has not had time to clear. Together, they protected Merlin, and out of all kinds of dark and dirty intentions, Merlin was able to continue to live, so that Merlin could survive as a kind of "weapon". They kept Merlin more so that one day they could have a hole card with enough weight to fight that woman and destroy that woman's inheritance.

Merlin had known these things and the filthy doorways in them for a long time, partly from his grandfather's teachings, and partly from his own sad thoughts. He wasn't grateful to the people who kept him alive, because there was no need for that, they were just using each other. And now, his mother has officially given him an ultimatum, which seems to mean that those who once had the ability to stop her have lost the ability to continue to stop her.

"My noble mother......" Merlin whispered softly, playing with a sharpened wooden thorn in his hand, "it seems that there is no force in the family that can stop you, you have broken free from the last shackles and shackles, and you can finally spread your wings and soar above the sky......" Merlin's tone became a little painful as his fingers violently severed the wooden thorn from the middle, "but your incomparably vast heart can't leave that little room for me, for your first son?" I will definitely carry out the promise I made, I will not snatch the rights and status that do not belong to me, nor will I be kidnapped, tempted, or driven by some people to become a pawn fighting for power and profit with you...... Why do you ......?"

"Whoosh", "Whoosh", "Whoosh"

Merlin's self-pity was interrupted by the sound of breaking through the air, and countless sharp wooden thorns shot at Merlin from all directions, leaving him no room to flicker and move, just trying to string him into a sewing kit in the shape of a human figure.

"Alas......" sighed deeply, and Merlin shook his head helplessly, not paying attention to the lightning-fast woodwork that stabbed at him, for by this time they had all broken and broken into tiny dregs that fell among the dirt.

These killers and assassins really disappointed Merlin, counting those two very natural fools, Merlin has been attacked more than ten times in the past two days, including traps, poisoning, long-range shots from bows, planting explosives, shooting, make-up sneak attacks, etc., but none of them have caused any effective damage to Merlin. Aside from the fact that the shootings and the planting of explosives had startled Merlin, many of the other attacks were more of a childish joke to Merlin. He couldn't help but be very disappointed in these guys, and gradually became a little contemptuous.

"Whoosh~", "Whoosh~"

In the distance, there was another sound of breaking through the air, and a dozen metallic but swarthy swords flew towards Merlin's back, each sharp front flashing with an ominous purple light.

"Again?" Merlin sighed heavily, and didn't even look back, just raised his right hand back slightly.

"Bang", "Bang"

More than a dozen Bafang shuriken were twisted into clumps of iron pellets in an instant, and then fell to the ground one after another.

These ninjas, or supposedly ninja killers, generally carry out long-range surprise attacks on Merlin from far away in the shadows, except on rare occasions - such as the two idiots and a failed cross-dressing sneak attack - they do not dare to get too close to Merlin, and always follow him from a distance, and Merlin has counterattacked according to the trajectory of the attack in the first few times, but without exception they have all pounced and fallen into the trap many times. So now Merlin didn't bother with these playful attacks, he just smashed them and continued to hurry, and that's really all he wanted, so he didn't have the leisure to play an anti-ambush......

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Far behind Merlin, several camouflage-clad creatures moved delicately through the dense forest, running and jumping silently and leaving little to no trace. In the midst of the high movements, several people even used gestures and some strange sounds to communicate with each other that only they could understand.

At the front of the squad of several men were two stout, but unusually agile youths, flying through the woods, and Merlin might have been surprised if he could see them (and probably wouldn't have been), for these two were none other than the natural fool brothers he had brutally killed two days earlier.

Suddenly, one of the brothers raised his arm high and made a simple gesture to his companion behind him. The camouflage people who received this instruction each stopped galloping and quickly gathered around the man, counting the two brothers, there were a total of nine camouflage people, and they were probably all men.

"The target has entered a period of slackness...... the man said in a voice that was only slightly higher than a whisper, "and he should be on guard and on guard for another day or so, and then the best time for us to strike." Be sure to hit with one hit, kill with one hit. Everyone nodded, "Then we will strike at the same time, paralyzing his abilities and abolishing the treasure ball he carried." It is better to bring him alive to the lord, so that the task can be effectively accomplished. But remember, kill him as soon as there is an accident, and don't take any chances. ”

"Not only did the Lord entrust us with the task, but he also invited a lot of fellows to participate in this 'hunt'. However, we are the lord's vassals......" he glanced around at his companions, "gambling in the name of 'stealing the group' will never live up to the lord's trust, and the task can only be completed in our hands!" ”

"Hey!" Everyone around them whispered in response.

"Oh~ I see......" Merlin, who was clasping his arms, leaned against a giant tree and sighed.

The nine-member group called the stealing group only showed Merlin's traces at this time, and only then did they know that they were actually ambushed by Merlin, and after a few exclamations and disbelief, they took out their weapons and props from everywhere, and the fierce light flashed in their eyes and approached Merlin step by step. Now is not the time to think about why, but to fight!

"So you're the ninjas under your mother, you can't be just nine fools, right?" Killed by nine fierce big men (maybe there are big girls among them?) Merlin was not alarmed, "I should have seen an old fellow among you when I was very young, he was obviously much smarter than you......"

"Whoosh~" Another sound of breaking the air interrupted Merlin's nonsense, and a large piece of Bafang shuriken flew out from behind him, forcing Merlin to muster the ability to smash them one by one, but when he smashed this large piece of shuriken, more shuriken shot out from another direction and attacked him.

Merlin was busy dealing with these endless hidden weapons, while the nine people who were pressing him stopped in confusion and looked around in disbelief.

"Nine idiots! Don't go yet. ”

There was a flickering sound in the dense forest, as soon as they heard this sound, all the faces of the nine people changed greatly, and the two brothers changed their faces several times, and finally stomped their feet angrily, jumped up several meters on the ground, jumped into the boundless dense forest, and quickly disappeared into the lush forest with the others.

"Humph!" Merlin glanced at the fleeing Nine, and with a wave of his hand, he smashed another batch of flying shuriken.

"Lord Merlin, thank you for your compliment. It is a great honor for the old man to be praised by the son of the governor......" The voice in the forest flickered left and right, as unpredictable as the shuriken flying everywhere.

Merlin was able to mark the two idiots and see through their fake death schemes and eventually ambush the stupid ninjas, but he really couldn't catch the old guy. His perception stretched outward to the extreme, and he couldn't catch the figure and traces of this person at all.

One shuriken after another changed direction and flew towards Merlin, and he carefully discerned the sound, finally catching the not very clear sound.

"Organs? Machine? Merlin turned his body back and forth and smashed wave after wave of shuriken into pieces with his ability, "Old guy, when people are old, they should obediently take care of themselves and don't come out to make trouble again!" Merlin crouched down and slammed his right hand to the ground under his feet, and at the same time opened the channel of his ability with Vizel, borrowing the special alpha wave scattered by Vizil, who was still in the Pork Ball, to release it towards the surroundings with the earth as a transmission medium.

The special alpha waves capable of damaging electronic devices were mixed with Merlin's fluctuations in ability to destroy a tangible entity and become more destructive, and after being conducted by the earth, they quickly locked on to the metal machines that had been buried here and there. From afar, there was a constant sound of metal cracking and shattering, and the tools that the old guy had planted turned into piles of scrap.

"It was a huge mistake for the Governor to get rid of you. Although you are not destined to inherit the throne of the family governor, your terrifying power is too rare if it can serve your family...... Then a qiē will be more smooth. The old man's voice was still erratic, "It's a pity that the governor won't listen to my advice......

"Humph!" Merlin stood up and casually slapped the dirt on his palms as he carefully discerned where the old man's voice was coming from.

"Lord Merlin, I'm not here to take your life, I'm just trying to get my fools back from your men." The Stealing Group is simply not capable of carrying out the orders of the Lord, and we do not have the strength to take your life, so I will go home and receive the punishment. But you have to be careful, the governor has not hesitated to buy a lot of strangers from outside to harm you. The old fellow's voice continued to drift, "They'll be here soon, please take care of yourself then......"

"Here!" Merlin finally settled on a roughly correct direction, raised his arm and unleashed a series of power fluctuations there, tearing all the trees and rocks he touched into the finest pieces. However, there were no human fragments at all among these fragments, only small remains of what was clearly man-made.

"What the hell does this old guy mean?" Merlin glanced at the clean forest corridor he had made, but his heart was even more suspicious. All he knew was that the previous slapstick game was over, and the real excitement was next, and the outlaws who came for the money were far more difficult to deal with than the ninja apprentices.
