"Drip, drip, drip"

Merlin was lying on a bed, beside him, some complicated instruments were working. On the screen on the other side, a green line was beating, representing Merlin's heartbeat.

A young nurse was pumping blood for Merlin. The smell on her body was very good, with a faint floral scent.

It's a pity that the hospital's smell is not good, Merlin doesn't like the smell of disinfection water, and the doctors who come and go in white clothes.

He remembered that when he was young, he was very afraid of going to the hospital, not because of fear of injections or taking medicine. He just didn't like the atmosphere. Sadness, despair, pain, sadness, this is a place full of depression, healthy people will not come here.

He was not sick.

He was just performing a pre-employment medical examination and taking a blood test. It is said that this is to collect data for his subsequent training plan.

"Your body is very healthy."

The doctor with a stethoscope walked into Merlin's ward with the test results. He said to the young man lying on the bed:

"The heart, circulatory system, brain, etc., have no problems, and the test results also show that you are a healthy and normal young man. In the past ten years, I have never seen a person as healthy as you. The only strange thing is that your blood temperature is lower than the standard value, but this is not a big problem."

"Here, this is your medical report."

The doctor handed some papers to Merlin. He put his hands in his pockets and said to Merlin:

"After drawing blood, you can leave here."

"thank you."

Merlin nodded to the doctor and thanked him.

A few minutes after the doctor left, Nick Fury walked into the house, and the little nurse had finished drawing blood and left the room.

Merlin watched the little girl leave with some regret, then put his eyes on Fury's face. He rubbed his arms and said:

"Do you know, sometimes, your face is really scary. You should learn to smile."

"Of course I can laugh, but that doesn't mean I am happy."

Fury answered blankly, then took out an ID card from his pocket and threw it to Merlin. He said:

"Take this card, after you complete the training from the Secret Service College, you will report to the base, there will be someone in charge of your onboarding process."

"What I need to tell you in advance is that, Merlin, your identity is still being supervised. You will not be officially part of the Strategic Science Corps until your review process is completed. Before that, I hope you can Get trained...throw away any habits you shouldn’t have!"

Merlin snorted, learning from Fury's tone:

"Of course I can throw them away and, like you, become a ruthless secret agent. But this does not mean that I like to do that."

He looked at Fury, seemingly aware of Fury's indifference, he changed the subject, he said:

"When did I start receiving serum conversion training?"

"Not urgent."

Fury put his hands on his back and slowly answered:

"At least we have to figure out why you have nosebleeds. Ms. Carter remembers that Captain America did not experience this after receiving seroconversion, which may represent..."

"That means nothing."

Merlin interrupted Fury's words, and he said with some interest:

"Don't look for it, you can't find the reason."

"Oh?"

Fry narrowed her eyes:

"Sounds like you are hiding something? You know why you bleed, right?"

Merlin got dressed, took his ID card, and walked out of the room.

Fury followed behind him, seemingly waiting for Merlin's answer. After walking out of the hospital of the Strategic Science Corps, Merlin stood by the road and looked at New York City in the distance in the morning. He took a deep breath in the morning. Air, he said somewhat sadly:

"Yes, I know that."

"During the period when I just concluded a contract with the demon, whenever I noticed that the magic in my body was flowing, I would have nosebleeds, and in more serious cases, even my ears would shed blood. But this It will not damage my health. A friend told me that this is the process of my soul gradually growing, and it can't represent anything."

Hearing Merlin’s words, Fury’s expression changed a little, and he said softly:

"Interestingly speaking, this is the first time I heard it. It sounds mysterious."

"mysterious?"

Merlin shook his head:

"No, you think it's mysterious, you're curious about it because it didn't happen to you, my sir. Believe me, when a demon lives in your body, you won't find it fun ."

"So what does it stand for?"

Fury asked again, Merlin hesitated for a moment, and seemed to be organizing the language. He and Fury walked along the hospital street all the way to the parking lot. He said:

"Every time it bleeds, it represents the erosion of my body and soul by the magic of darkness. After the injection of serum, after my body was strengthened, I thought this situation would weaken or even disappear. But no, on the contrary, I can I feel that as my body becomes stronger and stronger, it can carry more and more magic power, and its erosion becomes more intense."

"Every night, in every dark night, it grows and grows quietly. It lurks in my soul until it is strong enough to swallow me from the inside."

Merlin rubbed his forehead slightly painfully. He said:

"Last night, I had a nightmare of the night...I thought I would never have another nightmare, but unfortunately, it might just be wishful thinking. It never disappeared, and the power that accompanied me to use it came The more frequently it becomes closer to me."

"It's transforming me, Sir Fury, it's pushing me to a boundary, and once I cross it... I will lose my human identity."

"What will you become?"

Fury took out the car key and opened the door of his black car. He was sitting in the car, and Merlin was sitting beside him. He started the car and asked:

"Will it become a demon that destroys everything and spit fire?"

"Not so exaggerated."

Merlin smiled. He leaned back in his seat and said to Fury:

"According to my friend, I will become a devil. It is neither a human being nor a demon. If I cannot control my inner desire to destroy, I will become a terrifying killing monster. Speaking of it, Have you never seen a half-magic? It shouldn't be a well-informed person like you."

"Ok?"

Fury's eyes widened, he fiddled with the steering wheel and asked:

"Why do I have to see Half Demon? I did contain a lot of dangerous things, but really, I have never seen those alien creatures with my own eyes."

"Then you are so lucky."

Merlin turned his head to look out of the car window. In the sunlight, the whole city seemed to be awakening. He said:

"Did you know? In the Manhattan area alone, there are no less than five and a half demons. In New York, there are almost 11... They are lurking in the crowd, with various identities because of different Purpose lurks in this city. I have always been curious, how many such monsters should there be in North America?"

"what did you say?"

Fury was really surprised this time, he looked at Merlin:

"Are you sure? There are really 11 half-magic in New York?"

"Yes, I can be sure."

Merlin closed his eyes and recalled the five months he lived in Hell's Kitchen, he said:

"It is a minimum of 11, and it is only a half-demon with a strong heritage, which means that their power comes directly from the big devil or the big devil. Once the power is out of control, it will immediately cause a disaster that melts into the city."

"As for those human beings that are infested with ordinary aliens, that's more. But according to my understanding, if they are just aliens like ghosts or little devil, they can't make any major problems in human society. Oh, By the way, I don’t know if you understand. In fact, there are many vampires in some remote places in New York."

"I have personally seen them tempting ignorant girls and boys on the street."

"Click"

Fury slammed on the brakes. He looked at Merlin next to him. After a while, he took out the paper and pen from his side and handed it to Merlin. He said seriously:

"Give me all the hidden half-devil life and activity areas and physiological characteristics you know now. There are also areas with a large number of exotic creatures. In short, any information you know about these guys, I Yes!"

"Ms. Carter may have seen this... Merlin, you are indeed what we desperately need, about supernatural phenomena and affairs, so I will give you a mission, which is also your first mission to join the Strategic Science Corps ."

Fury patted Merlin on the shoulder and said to him:

"You are directly managed by me. I need you to find out the hidden aliens in New York in the shortest possible time. It is best to make a list of anomalous creatures."

"Useless, Fury."

Merlin shook his head. While writing something on the paper, he said to Fury:

"I have dealt with your agents, they can't even deal with me, an ordinary person who has only received a little dark power. When facing those powerful half-magic, you let them go, you can only die. , In other words, even if I give you everything you need, you can’t deal with them."

"Who said we didn't?"

Fury snorted, and in an unpredictable gesture, said to Merlin:

"You only joined the Strategic Science Corps a few days? Do you know that we are thin?"

"Come on, Merlin, you don’t even know how important the position of the Strategic Science Corps in this system is. We also have masters specializing in heterogeneous affairs, but because they are masters, we can’t always trouble them. Those You can only do the little work of gathering intelligence."

A trace of indifference flashed in Fury's eyes, he said:

"You are only responsible for locating and inventorying. Offending people's lives, let's come!"

Merlin looked at the expression on Fury's face. In the state of spiritual vision, he clearly saw the confidence in Fury's eyes. He nodded thoughtfully and said to Fury:

"Since you are so confident, then I took over this task. I will start this task when I formally enter the job."

"Well... of course, to run all over New York in a short time, I need a good car, and you will be reimbursed for the gas bill! If you can, give me a less stupid partner, after all, you can't do anything. Let me do it."

"You think a lot."

Fury shook his head and said to Merlin:

"These, wait until you graduate from the Secret Service College."

"Cut, it's boring, I have already regretted joining you. In the movies you watched, the James Bond guy... how handsome."

Merlin complained, Fury snorted, and restarted the car. He turned the steering wheel, and he said abruptly:

"James Bond? That's just a pseudonym. He is actually a very talkative person, and his real experience is much more exciting than those Niang Cannon movies."

"Have you seen him?"

Merlin looked at Fury in surprise. The latter put on a new pair of frog mirrors, covering most of his face, and the corner of his mouth was still an inscrutable smile.

"you guess."

Merlin didn't guess. He looked at the roadside signs. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said to Fury:

"Do me a favor and send me to Columbia University."

"Huh? Where are you going?"

Fury asked, Merlin did not answer, but Fury turned the steering wheel and drove onto the road to Columbia University.

————————————

"boom"

Merlin, wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap, closed the door. He looked at the Columbia Dental College in front of him. A faint wave flashed in his eyes after the sunglasses.

He turned around and handed the paper filled with words to Fury. He lay on the door of the car, reminding him:

"This is the target of all the suspected half-magics I found. Listen to me, Fury, don't provoke these people before you know everything... I don't want to wait for the first thing after I join the job, is to help You collect the body."

"Ok, I know."

Fury was not angry at Merlin's provocation. Instead, he folded the paper carefully and put it in his pocket.

He looked at Merlin, he said:

"I still don't understand, what are you doing here? This is a school, not a place for homeless people. You are totally out of place here."

"I know."

Merlin stood up, he pulled his hat down, and he said to Fury:

"If there were no such accidents, I should be here now...should be a sophomore medical student. Do you understand? Here!"

Merlin pointed to the college behind him. He said:

"Here is another life I have passed away..."

"I just come to remember..."

"That dead self."
