"Did you agree?"

“I need time to think about it.”

Merlin said ambiguously:

"But if you can give me some news that I am interested in, maybe my time of hesitation will be reduced appropriately. For example, for information about Hydra, who is Hydra hidden in S.H.I.E.L.D?"

"I have no idea."

Talia simply said:

"I only know that Hydra has several factions running on the East Coast, and they are also good at hiding themselves. And a few months ago, a senior Hydra executive code-named "Banker" suddenly died, which made the group hide deeper. It was too difficult to find out more news based on our weak power in New York."

"But if you are willing to help me reorganize the Assassin Alliance's power on the East Coast, maybe it will take only one month to bring you some good news."

Talia plucked her hair and said gently:

"You are confused by the authorities. If you are in the game and cannot jump out, how can you find the bugs in your back? Such things must be left to a third party outside the game to observe, so that they can be more efficient."

"One month?"

Merlin narrowed his eyes, he looked at Talia, and after a moment he stretched out two fingers:

"I can allow you to move in several outlier reserves there. Just take this as a manifestation of your ability, Talia, within 20 days, give me a definite news and let us talk about the next step of cooperation."

"make a deal!"

Talia stood up happily and reached out toward Merlin. The latter also reached out to hold Talia's hand, representing the completion of the transaction.

"Count the time, we should be near Nandarbat."

Talia and Melin reached an agreement, and she was in a very happy mood. The shadows that had been shrouded in her heart for a while were like a clear view of the sun. She leaned on her chair, picked up her glass, drank a sip of wine, and said to Melin:

"As soon as I get off the plane, I will take you to see my father."

"I'm very curious about it."

Merlin asked:

"How do you deal with your relationship with your father? I don't think that people like Lars Al Goul will willingly hand over their throne to you, even if you are his daughter."

"Of course he won't."

Talia's expression became a little darker, she said:

"Do you remember what I said to you when we parted 8 years ago?"

"Remember."

Merlin nodded:

"At that time, you told me that you want to prove that you are not worse than a man."

"right."

Talia picked up the wine glass and put it in front of her. She looked at the liquid flowing in the cup, and she said with a hint of loss:

"So, I lost."

"When I met you, I had already met Bruce, but at that time, I didn't like him, I just regarded him as a competitor. My father taught Bruce himself, and he discovered Bruce's talent. After his original heir was forced away, he deliberately trained Bruce to become the next head of the demon."

"That should have been my place!"

Talia said in a low tone:

"I spent several times more time training and honing myself than that man, but I eventually lost. My father, who is very old-fashioned, I can feel it, but he stubbornly believes that women are naturally weak in sensuality and cannot control organizations like the Assassin League, so he finally chose Bruce between me and Bruce."

“Today, Merlin.”

Talia looked at Merlin and said frankly:

"There is a small part of the reason I swear to be the leader of the Assassin League, because of my inner unwillingness. I will prove that I am more suitable to lead the organization than Bruce. Bruce is too upright. Some of his heart has been burned out by justice. He walks in the shadow, but he will never belong to the shadow."

The woman laughed and said to Merlin:

"If you're never a part of the Shadow, how should you command it?"

"I am different from Bruce. I was born in the shadows. I grew up in the shadows. I know the rules in the dark. I follow those rules. When necessary, I make new rules and I will eventually become the queen of the shadows."

"You're drunk."

Merlin said calmly:

"The Shadow will not have a queen, it will not obey anyone. Talia, are you sure that you have no influence on the Pond of Sarah? In my opinion, your current mental state is also somewhat."

"leader!"

Before Merlin could finish her words, the cabin door was pushed open. A pilot pointed anxiously outside the porthole and said to Talia:

"Our city in South Darbat was attacked!"
