"Swish"

The moment Merlin walked out of the dock, a black raptor was coming.

With a beautiful and perfect tail swing, he stopped accurately in front of Merlin.

The doors automatically opened, and the escalator with pedals extended to Merlin's feet.

Merlin looked back at the battle on the dock.

The pier, which was almost engulfed by the sea, was in a mess, but the fierce confrontation continued.

Hydra soldiers were almost killed by the ambushed assassins, and the tyrants they brought were also entangled in the deep sea.

The battle between Superman and Thor is not over yet, and the Arthur trio is strong, but it is almost impossible to defeat Clark and Thor.

And the Iron Man has taken advantage of the chaos to leave the battlefield.

Something went wrong with his super mark...

Maybe Merlin should thank Jarvis, after all, that artificial intelligence is risking being discovered and dismantled, and she acted in a scene with Merlin.

Well, maybe Icarus communicated with Jarvis in advance.

But the battle here has nothing to do with Merlin.

"Click"

He sat in the car and the seat belt was automatically fastened for Merlin.

The doors were closed, and the steering wheel of Horus automatically deflected the next moment. It started smoothly, but rushed out of the war zone at the speed of a sports car.

"How is the family situation?"

Merlin leaned in the driver's seat, as if he was closing his eyes and resting.

He asked softly.

The next moment, Horus replied in a muffled voice:

"Everything is safe, everyone is waiting for you at home, Master Merlin, your friend Wolverine Logan and the Sons of Hell are protecting them. Are you going straight home now?"

"No."

Merlin shook his head and said:

"I have to find a place to clean up..."

He looked at the dust and blood left on his shirt and the pale, bloodless face reflected in the rearview mirror.

He said:

"Just go back like this, they will worry."

"Do you need me to find a door for you?"

Horus whispered:

"Maybe it's a good choice to enter the Mysterious House at this time."

"Door?"

Merlin chuckled, he took out the key of the mysterious house, inserted it into the keyhole of Horus' car from the inside, he twisted the key and said softly:

“There are doors everywhere in this world…”

The next second, Horus, who was running on the street of the world, disappeared strangely in place with the key as the medium.

Let three rockets attack from the sky be wiped out.

Amid the roar of flames blowing the earth, Horus appeared smoothly in the spacious hall of the mysterious house.

"Click"

The car door opened, Meilin walked down with a cane, and was held on his arm by Xuanlan who suddenly appeared.

"How did you make it like this?"

Xuanlan said in a dissatisfied tone:

"You respect the world and everyone. I hope you can respect yourself, just occasionally..."

"You really can't be nice to yourself?"

"It's just an accident."

Merlin didn't want to argue with Xuanlan.

He knew that Xuanlan was for his own good.

He was supported and sat on the sofa, and the flames in the fireplace burned more violently at this moment, making the hall warmer.

Xuanlan picked up the bell on her waist, and while shaking, the ghost servants appeared, brought hot towels to Meilin and put on new clothes.

He also served him a cup of hot tea with the right temperature and spare pastries.

"You are injured, why don't you come back as soon as possible?"

Xuanlan bent down and said while helping Meilin clean up her somewhat scattered hair:

"Do you know how worried I... the kids are?"

"I just don't want you to worry too much about me, and there's no big problem."

Merlin picked up the teacup, he sipped a sip of the tea, and he said:

"Just expected, I was ready for this, but it was coming with great force, and it was still a little beyond my imagination... But things have not yet gotten out of control, and it is still far from the time to lose control."

"The source of all chaos has been found..."

Merlin put down the teacup and said:

“The rest is simple.”

"Really?"

Xuanlan stood beside Meilin, she said:

"You should know that in this room, I can feel your thinking..."

"Why is your beating heart telling me that you are not sure this time."

The female housekeeper who had been with Meilin for almost ten years looked at her master and said seriously:

"Tell me honestly, Master Merlin, what is the real situation like? Tell me about your disorderly and complex fate..."

Xuanlan walked to Meilin's eyes, she squatted down and held Meilin's cold hands with both hands.

She looked at Merlin's dark red eyes and said:

"You know you can trust me, you can tell me... what's going on?"

Under Xuanlan's inquiry, Meilin was silent for a moment, and after a few seconds, a hint of gloom appeared in his eyes.

He seemed to have taken off all the disguise, and he said to Xuanlan:

"Okay, it's terrible."

"It's not because of this incident itself, Lan, because of that game... Although I haven't told you, I believe you can guess it."

"The endgame moment of the game is coming."

Merlin sighed, he raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the mysterious room above his head full of strange patterns, and he whispered:

"When you are forced to start playing a game..."

"You are forced to join the game as the worst possible person."

"You didn't know all this at first, you thought it was your life, everything was real."

"But then, you awaken, you become detached, you realize that it's all arranged."

Merlin lowered his head, and he looked at Xuanlan's face that looked very similar to Natasha.

He stretched out his fingers and stroked his smooth cheeks, and he said:

"And you don't want to just sink into illusory satisfaction. You want to have your own reality, and most importantly, you want to win..."

“Isn’t it just to win the game?”

"But now the problem I face is that the game is almost over, but I don't know what to do to win..."

"I don't know what wins, it makes it difficult for me to adopt a strategy. Hydra is just a small problem, but this... is a big problem."

A vain smile appeared on his face, and he stroked Xuan Lan's cheek.

As the flames burned in the fireplace and in that warm breath, he looked at Xuanlan and asked softly:

"Lan... are you real? Or are you just born in a dream like me?"

"It's like a soap bubble, just poke..."

"Bang"

“It just broke.”

Xuanlan listened to Meilin's narration, and her expression changed. Finally, under Meilin's gaze, Xuanlan stood up, she stretched out her hand and pushed Meilin on the sofa.

The next moment, Xuanlan bent down and put her entire body into Meilin's arms.

She held Meilin's neck with her hands and kissed Meilin gently on her cheek.
