Zhang Yiqijiu: The perfect container
Sheldon's tasks are slightly different from those of Plylius, specifically in terms of difficulty, and those easy tasks will not appear in the hands of their mercenaries.
He did a brief screening, and finally entered his eyes with three tasks: follow a team of novice mercenaries to the [primordial land] Maya in the south of Cangaya to find a magical creature, the Feathered Serpent; Seek the Storm Gem at the edge of Bieber, the far west of the Storm Core; and protect a team of children, send them to the [City of Motherhood] to visit, and finally bring them back.
Sheldon finally chose the third option, he thought for a moment, the first two places were still too dangerous, the Mayan climate was too wet, walking in this climate, Merlin's delicate little feet were easy to fester; And Bieber's wind was too strong, he was afraid that Merlin would be blown away if he didn't pay attention, and even with special immobilization equipment, it was extremely difficult to walk on the edge of the [Storm Core].
"What is the place of Motherhood?" Merlin's eyes widened and he asked Sheldon curiously.
"Everybody becomes a woman after a while there, and it's no different." Sheldon shrugged, "The scenery along the way is still very beautiful. Moreover, each place has its own characteristics, so let's take you to see it. โ
"And a lot of kids like me?" Merlin moved his body for a moment, accidentally knocked over the pen on the table, and struggled to pick it up, "Hmm......"
His little arms and legs won't be able to reach him for a while......
"Backtrack!" Merlin let out a low snort, and his eyes circled around the dark golden sand of time, and the pen that had just rolled on the ground several times magically rolled back from the ground, and flew back to the table with a swish.
"Merlin, don't show your abilities in public in the future......" Sheldon sighed, even though Merlin vaguely explained to himself again that day his power to manipulate time, his right eyelid kept jumping when he saw this strange scene.
"Why?" Merlin feigned puzzlement and said, "It's convenient, isn't it?" โ
"I'll teach you how to use the magic in your body, and now it's a knife to kill chickens." Sheldon smiled and picked up Merlin, making a small circle in his palm with a stroke of his fingers, leaving a little bit of light and flexible magic, "And magic can do so much more." โ
Syllable! A puff of green smoke erupted from Merlin's palm, and a small stick figure of Merlin stood vividly on the child's hand.
"It's ......," Merlin's eyes reflected the golden reflection of the villain.
"That's magic," Sheldon snapped his fingers, and the little man in Merlin's hand waved at the little boy, and then staggered into a little golden dust and disappeared, "If you use it properly, everything in the world can be used for you." โ
"Of course, if power is not used properly, it can cause indelible disasters." Sheldon raised an eyebrow, and a green skull the size of his head suddenly sprang out of the circle in Merlin's palm.
"Wow!" Merlin hurriedly waved his hand, trying to break up this illusory skull, "Dad! โ
The man hooked his fingers, and the skull was blown away like a flame in the wind.
"I'm sure you can tell what's good and what's bad, don't you?" Sheldon laughed, "Don't use it for bad things, promise me." โ
"Of course I won't use magic to do bad things! Those are bad boys! Merlin exclaimed, "Of course, pranks shouldn't count as bad......"
"Then there has to be a degree, like I just did." Sheldon took a sip of the tea on the table and said seriously, "However, if something happens to you, you must protect yourself first, and then talk about whether you do bad things, you know?" โ
"When it's dangerous, protect yourself first!" Merlin waved his little fist and said loudly, "Then there is a chance to protect others!" โ
"It's disgusting that you're talking like that." "That's why I've always hated humans, being too noisy, troublesome, and cunning. โ
"What kind of person should do what kind of thing!" Merlin said with a smile, "Do I look like it?" โ
"You seem to be overacting." Nightmare said angrily, "I think I'll have to sleep a little longer." โ
Sheldon hopes that Merlin can grow up to be a kind person, even if the world is not kind to him.
"Merlin, you should be able to sense the magic in your body by now," Sheldon almost forgot to assess Merlin's magic level, just in time to see how many magic lines this little guy has on his body when he has nothing to do, "try to manifest them." โ
"Just let them out, okay?"
Merlin closed his eyes, stretched out his hands, and cautiously called out the powerful and deep magic in his body, like a beast of the wilderness, trying to make them respond.
Merlin didn't teach Mรกrquez how to manipulate the magic in his body, because he had already taught Marquez how to manipulate the magic that belonged to nightmares, and it should be easy to integrate the knowledge.
Now, almost all of the magic in the little boy's body will be pure attributeless magic, and if the nightmare wants to cast a spell that belongs to him, he can use it directly, and he doesn't need to squeeze it desperately in his body.
This may be an additional benefit after directly absorbing the magic inside a [Primordial Rune].
Buzz โ
Sheldon never imagined that a faint wave of qi erupted around Merlin's body, curling his long hair into a messy flutter, and the clothes around him began to tremble uncontrollably! The graceful and luxurious dark golden magic patterns made up every bone, every tendon, every vein, and even every drop of blood around Merlin's body!
"Ho-" Sheldon's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe what was happening in front of him.
Isn't this the perfect vessel within the Merlin Project......
Merlin's body has broken through the shackles of the flesh, and in the eyes of ordinary people, it is already thankful to be able to engrave two magic patterns on his body; But on his body, Sheldon felt like these magic patterns were gradually growing!
They are one...... But it couldn't have been......
"Stop, stop!" Sheldon pressed Merlin's shoulder, and the trickle of magic on the little boy gradually subsided, "Daddy begs you something, is that okay?" โ
Merlin tilted his head, a little puzzled.
"Can you only show that you have three magic patterns in front of ordinary people?" Sheldon pursed his lips and said, "With your talent, there must be many people who want to take you as an apprentice. Dad, there are special teachers here, don't let others take the lead. โ
Merlin nodded, "I can try it." โ
Sheldon looked carefully at Merlin's palm, and three small magic streaks grew from his wrist, like three young buds, extending from his wrist to the middle of his arm.
"This ......," Sheldon swallowed.
Although it looks like three magic patterns, as long as you look closely, these three magic patterns are actually three unfathomable chasms, and there are endless torrents of magic jumping below the chasm!
Nameless fear gradually permeated his heart.
What kind of monster did they make...... Now Merlin can crush everyone present to death with just a move of his fingers......
Of course, this is just Sheldan's imagination. Due to the limitations of Merlin's body, the magic power he can release at one time is also limited, and no matter how hard he controls the magic power, it will not cause the results he imagined.
"Hurry up and teach me magic! Dad, I want to learn! Merlin hugged Sheldon's body excitedly, "In this way, you can also become a powerful warlock in the future, and you can protect your father!" โ
"Alas......" Sheldon's eyes softened, he was quickly accepting his identity as a father, "In the last three days, Dad will tell you the most basic rules for using magic, if you are talented enough, then the use of magic is only a matter of thought. โ
"Yay!" Merlin will gradually play the role of "son".
"But you have to promise me not to do very bad things with magic."
"Of course! I'm going to bring all the bad guys to justice! Merlin exclaimed happily.
The people around him were amazed at how precious this father-son relationship was, and even Prilius, who was out of breath, was moved.
"Then you can bring yourself and the people in front of you to justice now." Nightmare's tone was teasing, "Aren't good people. โ
Mรกrquez scolded angrily: "You go to sleep for me!" โ
"You need to know that we are just a perfect vessel in the eyes of the Merlin Sect."
