Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 170 18. Necessary vigilance 【93100】

"buzz"

The deep and powerful sound of the engine echoed on the streets of New York. A black classic Dodge Challenger muscle car drove through the street quickly. This car moved extremely fast and was very, very flexible. The driver is driving.

It gallops on the street, shuttling back and forth in the slightly crowded streets like a fish in water, as if it has a real soul.

In fact, this car really has no driver.

Merlin was leaning on the driver's seat, holding a lunch in his hands, the steering wheel in front of him seemed to be held by invisible hands, spinning by itself, that scene was extremely weird.

"The place you are going to go through 17 forks, I have already planned the best driving plan."

The iconic metallic sound of flying over the mountain sounded in the carriage, and a blue stereoscopic projection appeared in front of Merlin's eyes. On the detailed map of New York, a red line was outlined.

This is the optimal route calculated by this mechanical life transformed into a muscle car in its own way.

Merlin glanced at the projection, and skillfully picked up a piece of chicken with his chopsticks, and said vaguely while eating:

"You decide for yourself, as long as it takes me safely to where I'm going."

"Um"

Flying across the mountain, this black muscle car with red stripes on the hood started quickly at the moment the green light came on, and with a beautiful tail flick that stunned other drivers on the road, it flew at an almost 90° angle. During the bend, it turned perfectly into another road.

The whole process was extremely smooth, so stable that Merlin didn't feel the bumps at all, and the level of the Coke he put on the bridge didn't even change.

Frankly, the comfort level in this car is nothing short of perfect.

Merlin is sure that this car of his is absolutely unique in this world, and the technical content of this mechanical life is at least hundreds of years ahead of this world!

The fly in the ointment of this car is that its chassis is missing a large part, which greatly affects the external image.

After all, Fei Guoshan lost his right arm in the previous battle, so when he transforms into a car, he will naturally lose some parts.

While flying over the mountain at high speed, Merlin finished his lunch. When he passed a street intersection, he threw the lunch box outwards. Under the effect of the levitation spell, the lunch box was perfectly thrown into the trash can on the side of the street. inside.

This scene was seen by Fei Guoshan with the information collector transformed into a bridge. After a few seconds, the silent and cold mechanical life asked:

"Merlin, is this the magic you are talking about? Did you use this weird energy to repair my body?"

"Yes, magic."

Merlin says:

"A kind of power that doesn't make sense at all. It's a pity that you don't carry your destroyed right arm. Naturally, the repair spell can't repair the missing part. Speaking of which, you have been fighting among the stars for so long, and you have never seen other aliens. Starman magic?"

"We have very little contact with carbon-based life."

Fei Guoshan replied calmly:

"Carbon-based life and silicon-based life like us are completely different in terms of civilization composition and belief habits. Especially after the destruction of Cybertron, every surviving Cybertronian was involved in the brutal exile war ...we don't have time for diplomacy."

"Well, that's a pity."

Merlin shrugged, he said to Fei Guoshan:

"Come and listen to a song."

"Wait a minute, the network speed in your world is too bad, it takes me a few seconds to download. Oh, you have a lot of music types, what type do you like to listen to?"

"It's soothing first."

Merlin closed his eyes and leaned against the driver's seat. A moment later, a melodious serenade sounded in the carriage.

"I'll sleep for a while, wake me up when I get there."

Merlin said something to Fei Guoshan, he closed his eyes and entered a state of meditation.

After learning magic, Merlin seldom had real sleep. Wizards use meditation to sense the magic power in their bodies. This special state can also relieve fatigue very well.

Little wizards at Hogwarts basically only sleep for a few hours a night, while it is normal for formal wizards to not sleep for a week or even a month.

Magic, this is really a very magical thing.

Flying over the mountain did not disturb Merlin's rest, it even slightly reduced the speed of the car, and arrived at the S.H.I.E.L.D. office building 5 minutes later than expected.

"Merlin, wake up."

Flying over the mountain with a beautiful flick, it parked perfectly in the open-air parking lot, and it awakened Merlin with a deep voice.The latter opened his eyes and looked at the building in front of him. He stretched his body, adjusted his clothes, and said to Fei Guoshan:

"Wait for me here... Don't try to connect to the S.H.I.E.L.D. internal network, it's a specially encrypted network, and you will be discovered if you force your way in."

"Ok?"

Fei Guoshan made a doubtful voice lacking emotion, and a projection appeared in front of Merlin's eyes, which standardized dozens of secret documents in the S.H.I.E.L.D. database.

The mechanical life said to Merlin:

"The network encryption methods in your world are too low-end. I even need to split a thread to easily break through your network defenses. Are you sure that your organization is really the most secretive force in the world?" ?"

Facing Fei Guoshan's question, Merlin was a little at a loss as to how to answer.

The Cybertronians are mechanical life forms, and for the people on Earth, it is just a means of information technology, and for them, it is more like an instinct engraved in their bones.A Cybertron baby who has just walked out of the assembly workshop, using information technology means, is far superior to the most powerful information technology experts on the earth.

Merlin looked at the projection with data constantly shining in front of him, he hesitated for a few seconds, then lowered his voice, and said to Fei Guoshan:

"Open the database with the highest privileges..."

"What are you doing, Merlin."

Fei Guoshan did not obey the order immediately, instead, it asked:

"Among the information I've seen, you are level 5. You are not qualified to browse the most closely guarded information in your organization... You are breaking the rules, Merlin, and this is very dangerous behavior."

"No, fly over the mountain."

Merlin narrowed his eyes, looked at the projection with data shining in front of him, and said:

"It's a...well, necessary caution. I've had word that there may be some dark secrets hidden within my organization, and I need to find out."

"I can't do that."

Fei Guoshan refused:

"This is not in line with the rules of conduct of the Cybertron Rebels, and actions that challenge order must be condemned."

"You've seen those messages, fly over the mountain."

Merlin says:

"You don't have S.H.I.E.L.D. authority, and you're violating your rules...open that database, and I'll help you find B-127. You're not familiar with the place here. If your friends and you The same is proficient in information technology, if it wants to hide itself, then you can't find it even if you mobilize satellites all over the world, and I... I can mobilize unique resources to help you."

"This is a matter of mutual assistance and mutual benefit, Your Excellency, Second Lieutenant Cybertron. If you are really fighting a battlefield, then winning is your goal!"

Merlin said softly:

"What I'm wondering now is, how much can you pay in order to win? Are the rules you stick to before victory and defeat worth your and your brother's death for it?"

Fei Guoshan hesitated for a moment.

A few seconds later, its emotionless voice sounded in the compartment:

"Database encryption cracking, estimated time, 58 seconds."

Merlin smiled. He waited patiently. One minute later, on the projection in front of his eyes, an endless stream of secret documents were arranged.Merlin quickly browsed the contents of these documents, and after a few minutes, he pointed to a cash flow document and said:

"Following where and where these few funds came from...it's buggy, it shows that I'm not getting the grant for SDOLD at all! Heck, there's buggy!"

Merlin's fingers clenched.

In the beating of data bytes in front of him, an ominous premonition emerged in his heart.

The reminder that mysterious old Steve had given him was true.

In the organization he is in, there are shadows that he has been ignoring.

A few more minutes later, with the support of Fei Guoshan's powerful data tracking and computing instincts, the complex and cumbersome transfer procedures of the few cash were not hidden from Merlin's eyes.

"The 'Avengers' program?"

Merlin looked at where the cash finally flowed in, and he rubbed his forehead:

"Fry... are you using me as a cover? Is this your real purpose?"

"There was an abnormality in the last cash flow."

The voice of flying over the mountain sounded again:

"It disappeared..."

"disappear?"

Merlin frowned, looking at the millions of cash that disappeared strangely, he said softly:

"List all the executors related to this cash!"

"Swish"

After the data conversion on the projection, one name after another appeared in front of Merlin's eyes, including photos matching those names, among which Fury's photo was impressive.

"you again?"

Merlin clenched his fists.

"Fry...what the hell are you doing?"

"There are still some files that cannot be unlocked, Merlin."

Feiguoshan's search and cracking program stopped at this moment, and there was a hint of helplessness in the tone of the mechanical life:

"That part of the file uses multiple physical encryption, and I can't do anything about it."

"Then find out the information of these people first."

Merlin opened the car door, he said to Fei Guoshan:

"When I come back, show me the search results."

"Merlin."

The moment Merlin left, the voice of Flying Over the Mountain sounded in the carriage:

"Don't forget B-127!"

"Do not worry."

Merlin reached out and unbuttoned the first button of his shirt. He looked at the S.H.I.E.L.D. building in front of him with a gloomy expression, and said without looking back:

"What I promise you, I will do."

-----------------

"Snapped"

Several documents were thrown on Fury's desk.

Fury, who was processing official business on the computer, looked down at the few documents, and then looked up at Merlin who looked indifferent.

He didn't see any emotion on Merlin's face. He reached out and picked up the documents. After a while, Fury's expression became serious.

"Where did you get the news? A group of mechanical life is about to invade the earth? Why didn't I get the news? And how did you collect the information about the Cybertronians?"

"I have special channels of information."

Merlin looked into Fury's eyes, as if he wanted to see through all the secrets hidden in Fury's heart. He said:

"I'm also not sure whether this news is true or not, so I'll bring it and give it to you. It's up to you to judge whether SDOLD should intervene in this matter."

"Mechanical life..."

Fury didn't doubt Merlin's statement, because Merlin was a wizard, and as we all know, wizards have many weird ways to collect information.At least Fury knew that some wizards would use prophecy magic to judge the direction of an event.

Maybe Merlin got the news by using those magic spells.

He carefully looked at the documents brought by Merlin, and after a while, he put down the documents and crossed his hands to support his chin.He was thinking, and Merlin was waiting.

"Remember those secrets that Kohler revealed to us?"

One minute later, Fury stood up, took out a dusty document from the filing cabinet behind him, and handed it to Merlin. He said:

"Kohler told us that the Ministry of Defense has always had a special plan related to mechanical life."

Pointing to the document with his finger, Fury said:

"The name of that plan is 'District Seven'."

"The seventh district?"

Merlin opened the file bag, and there were only a few pieces of paper in it.He asked suspiciously:

"Can you confirm the authenticity?"

"can."

Fury nodded and said to Merlin:

"The old generals of the Ministry of National Defense kept this secret very firmly. I used many methods to find some clues. The plan is real, but we don't know the exact location, but from the information collected so far. Look, the Ministry of National Defense should have had brief contact with some special mechanical life during the Cold War."

"One year ago, the interrupted contact was revived again, and we detected special data signals several times. Through the tracking of that signal, we confirmed the existence of the seventh area."

"You said, we already have the ability to identify mechanical life data signals?"

Merlin's expression changed slightly. He took the document and walked to the window, seeming to see the blurred pictures clearly through the light.

Where Fury had no idea, Merlin secretly made a "pause" gesture, and Fei Guoshan in the parking lot below immediately stopped decrypting the S.H.I.E.L.D. database.

At the same moment, the door of Fury's office was pushed open.

Anxious Agent Hill said to Fury:

"Sir, those special data signals are back! They invaded our database a few minutes ago! But they were blocked by the physical encryption wall."

"Snapped"

Fury slapped his palm on the table, and he said angrily:

"Those bitches!"

"They actually want to spy on our secrets!"
