Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 388 22. Heavyweight "Guest"

"Transfiguration! (Transfiguration)"

On the edge of the swamp that had been completely changed in terrain, Merlin used three fingers covered with scales and sharp claws, like pinching toothpicks, to pinch the wand Lola.

Another transfiguration effect was applied to Magneto, who had fallen into a deep coma, so that the transfiguration effect of the black and white cat lasted longer.

In such a situation where there is no ability to resist, the effect of the transformation spell is surprisingly good.

"Mr. Merlin..."

Carrying Professor Charles on his back, the Colossus who ran over by stepping on the muddy water looked at Merlin's half-devil form in front of him. It has to be said that in the half-devil form, Merlin's 3-meter-high body, hideous appearance and stretched muscles, No matter from which angle you look at it, it has the power to intimidate others.

But to be honest, Merlin's half-devil form can't be considered ugly, at least every part of his body looks very uniform, and there is no exaggerated limb distortion.

Especially with the mane-like long hair that exudes a scorching white mist around the neck, as well as the recurved hooves and the inverted triangular tail wrapped in flames, it has a mighty feeling.

Like the Minotaur from mythology.

And when he saw Merlin's half-demon form, Colossus finally knew why Ms. Ororo was sure that Merlin could help him with his sister's problem.

Mr. Merlin apparently also had contact with demons, and he had a situation very similar to that of Colossus' sister.

"Turn your head away!"

Merlin spewed two hot pillars of smoke from his nostrils. His four eyes stared at Colossus and the weak Professor Charles behind him. The professor reached out and patted Colossus on the shoulder. Turn around obediently.

Behind him, Merlin moved his huge body, turned around, and stretched out his hand. A cloud of black mist popped out like a long whip and wrapped around the angry halberd inserted between the rocks. Merlin pulled his wrist hard, and the halberd Just as the rocks cracked, it returned to his hands.

The black mist dissipated, like a curtain, wrapping the semi-demonized Merlin. Although this form gave Merlin a feeling of "release" and freedom, his thinking as a human still made him unwilling to continue to maintain Such an inhuman state.

A few seconds later, Merlin, who had regained his human form, floated above the swamp. He was still wearing the gray casual suit. This time, the suit ordered by Mrs. Malkin had additional functions of self-healing and changing with the owner's body. Even after surviving the half-devil form, the suit was still not damaged.

Merlin made a mirror with the Water Summoning Curse. He looked at himself in the mirror, controlled his hair to return to its original length, and after confirming that it was exactly the same as before, he waved the mirror away and flew to the black and white cat. Then he squatted down and hugged the unconscious black and white cat into his arms.

"Turn around."

Merlin said something to Colossus in front of him. When Piot and Professor Charles behind him turned around, Merlin smoothed the black and white cat's hair and said to the professor:

"I will place him in a place that is absolutely 'safe'."

"Ah."

The professor, who was already injured and had a fight with Magneto, nodded his head.

He looked at the black and white cat in Merlin's arms, and said:

"Eric's followers will not let their leader disappear, and it is difficult to hide what happened here from their eyes and ears. And Ruiwen, she is a very sensitive person, she must have taken advantage of the chaos and left She is likely to fall to Eric's side, and she will not let Eric be imprisoned by you."

"Wouldn't that be better?"

Merlin took out the rimless glasses from his pocket, looked at them in front of his eyes, and then put them on the bridge of his nose.

He stretched out his hand and pushed his glasses, and said:

"One of them, and one less trouble for you. SDOLD doesn't have much else, but there are plenty of cages for prisoners."

"With all due respect, professor, the grievances and grievances between you mutants are really too chaotic. I have no intention and don't want to get involved in this matter, but it's my duty, and I can't avoid it."

Merlin said to Professor Charles:

"At present, it seems that you are more like a leader who can sit at the negotiating table with us and resolve these disputes peacefully...I mean, if I can, I hope It will deepen the bond between Xavier Academy for the Gifted and S.H.I.E.L.D."

"I will make a suggestion to my superiors that maybe, on the issue of mutants, SHIELD and the X-Men can work together, and before Magneto's brotherhood makes more troubles, we may work together Eliminate the threat posed by that group."

The agent breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the devastated land around him, he said:

"Please understand that I don't want to hurt anyone for no reason, but if they are not curbed, more mutants will be lured by dangerous extreme ideas and embark on a path of confrontation with order."

Merlin looked at the professor, he emphasized his tone:

"This proposal may be a bit murderous, but believe me, it is for your own good, and it is also for our good."

"I can understand."

The professor rubbed his forehead, he was silent for a few seconds, and then said to Merlin:

"Maybe this is really a good entry point, maybe we can really sit down and talk about this issue, I think, with the involvement of S.H.I.E.L.D., the directors of the World Security Council can also be more helpful to those of us. Some patience."

"Ah."

Merlin nodded and said:

"I'll talk about these things later. I have to send our Mr. Magnit to his 'new home' first."

"Also, professor, I hope, what happened just now..."

"I did not see anything."

Professor Charles said softly:

"I can assure you that my students won't gossip about demons."

"Ah That's good."

Merlin held the black and white kitten in his arms. He nodded to the professor, then pulled out his wand, and said to Colossus who was looking at him:

"Piot, want to know something about your sister?"

"Ok?"

Colossus jerked his head up, only to see a burst of white light from the tip of Merlin's wand, and then his eyes glazed over.

"Don't mind."

Merlin said to Professor Charles:

"It's just an extra insurance. I still want to live as a human being, and I still want to live a life that belongs to Merlin Riley, even if I pile up one with lies."

After finishing speaking, Merlin's figure disappeared in place, and when he reappeared, he returned to Fury and Elsa. The X-Men had already gone to collect the mutant prisoners who had scattered due to the fierce battle. The S.H.I.E.L.D. The agents, as well as the two magic Aurors who were slightly injured in the battle, were guarding the AIM researchers who wanted to escape in the chaos.

Merlin jumped out of the teleportation spell, he greeted the crow and Aisinus not far away, and then looked at Elsa who was walking towards him quickly, Miss Bloodstone's face was a little nervous, she Looking at him, he asked in a low voice:

"Aren't you injured? Merlin, and that demon just now..."

"It's nothing, come with me."

Merlin interrupted Elsa, he patted Miss Bloodstone on the shoulder, signaled her not to worry, then looked back at Fury, he hugged the sleeping cat in his arms, and said solemnly to the superiors and subordinates in front of him :

"I'll show you something, something very important."

Elsa and Fury had no doubt that he was there. They followed Merlin into the tent of the temporary treatment point. The next moment, a white light flashed in the tent.

After a few minutes, Fury shook his head, looked at Merlin, and asked:

"What did you just say? I lost my mind."

"I said, this is Magneto King Eric Lanciel."

Merlin pointed to the sleeping black and white kitten on the table in front of the three of them, and he said to Fury and Elsa:

"The professor defeated him after a fierce battle. I stepped forward to help him temporarily transform him into this harmless state. Professor Charles locked Magnit's mind with a mental shackle, but this shackle can only last 24 hours. So we have to get Magneto to a place where we can trap him before he wakes up."

"Island Prison would be a good fit."

Fury looked at the cat in the black tattered cloak in front of him, and he subconsciously wiped his blindfolded eyes, as if recalling some bad past.

The director thought for a moment, and he said to Merlin:

"The prison is inaccessible, and when it was built, it took into account the problem of future expansion. On the lowest level of solidity, there is a reserved pit leading to the bottom of the deep sea, where the dangerous Magneto can be held, but the problem is , we currently have no effective way to remove mutant abilities."

"Magneto's ability is too terrifying. You also know that he has blocked hundreds of alien missiles in the sky. If he connects to the earth's magnetic field in the deep sea...it will cause terrible trouble."

"Maybe we can use poison?"

Elsa reached out and scratched the cat's whiskers, and she said to Merlin:

"Some ingredients in the demon hunter's potion can be used to make special toxins, which will keep the human body in a very weak state, but will not damage life."

"Well, that's a way."

Merlin nodded, he thought for a moment, and said to Fury:

"The Magic Congress has a technique for forming a large-scale magic barrier. We can ask them to order a unique energy-blocking barrier for the island prison. Theoretically speaking, magnetism can also be regarded as a variant of energy. As long as the flow of energy is blocked , coupled with the weakening of Magnit by the drug, should be able to trap him temporarily."

"During this time, I will look for other effective sealing methods."

Merlin says:

"To achieve long-term imprisonment, it should not be a big problem."

"Ah."

Fury nodded, he glanced at the black and white kitten on the table, he stood up and said:

"Then go to the island prison and finish this horrible thing as soon as possible. I still have 3 days of vacation, and I don't want to waste my vacation here."

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

On the other hand, in the House of Blood in Hell's Kitchen in New York, after Merlin transformed from a half-devil form back to a human, Raven's heart palpitations eased slightly.

And just a few minutes after she relaxed, a purple letter fell out of the air, and precisely fell into the hands of Rui Wen who was sitting on the sofa watching cartoons.

There was still the familiar scent of violets on the letter.

This is the reply from the magical girl who communicated with her by letter. These replies are always so fast, and they don't look like those procrastinating orthodox mages at all.

Ruiwen opened the envelope, only to find that there were only a few simple sentences in the somewhat expensive magic letter.

Well, this magical girl must have come from quite a wealthy family.

"Dear Raven Instructor:"

"I only found oak seeds and angel feathers in the family treasure house. I also found the holy water you need from a close friend, and it has been mailed to you."

"What I want to ask is, do you collect these things for your own use? If you need them, I can send you some extra strange things with purification effects."

"Also, if possible, I hope to meet with you in the near future. There are some mysterious questions, and I want to ask you for advice in person."

"—from the magician, a hardworking student."

Ruiwen frowned, picked up the pen, and quickly wrote a reply.

"Don't call me a mentor, we just exchange what we need with each other."

"I'm busy, so we can talk about the meeting later... As for these materials, they are not for my own use, but for a friend who has special meaning to me. I should thank you for your help."

"Reply, please attach the questions you need me to answer. Wizard's time is precious, don't waste it."

Throwing the faith in her hand into the air, Ruiwen leaned on the sofa again holding the snack bowl. While staring at the TV in front of her, she said with some headaches:

"Are all the magical girls nowadays so enthusiastic?"

"She's asked to meet several times...and she seems to have a lot of things I need, a troublesome rich girl."

"But...maybe, Merlin can go to see her instead of me?"
