The Death Knell

"Friend, where are you counting the money?"

On the side of the 'cliff' formed by the sea water, there was a small fishing boat parked. At the bow of the boat, a man was laughing wildly and counting gold coins.

Gold coins are essentially a kind of metal and do not have any special functions. They cannot be used as magic conductors or murder weapons, but many people feel that they have indescribable magical power.

The man in front of him, wearing a sea soul shirt and smelling of fish all over his body, had obviously fallen into this kind of magic. A small bag of gold coins kept going back and forth, so much so that a group of people appeared behind him without even noticing.

It was Su Ming who poked his head from behind and spoke to the front, interrupting his hysteria.

The fisherman's first reaction was to hide the money bag behind his back, as if it was his life.

Judging from his actions, he must be an ordinary Italian fisherman who lives in a seaside village and has never been to the city a few times in his life. It is obvious that he does not recognize this black and yellow armor.

Otherwise, he should immediately kneel down and offer the purse and beg Deathstroke for mercy.

"Who are you? This is my ship! When did you get in here?!"

He crouched in the corner of the bow, shouting loudly and fiercely in the strong wind and waves, like a mouse baring its teeth at a cat trying to protect a few peanuts.

"Xiao Dai, he doesn't know me, come and talk to him." Su Ming took a step back and made way for the female warrior behind him. Diana's cloak was lifted high by the wind, and the debris of the waves stuck to her face. , making her look a little sparkling.

The Justice League is relatively influential on Earth. Although this man does not know Deathstroke, he knows Wonder Woman, so his demeanor quickly recovered.

"Ah, Wonder Woman, superhero, it seems I am really lucky today, you are as beautiful as the TV news."

He wasn't scared anymore, and was even a little happy.

But this flattery is a slap on the horse's lap. Diana likes people to praise her for her bravery and fighting skills, or her physical strength, but she doesn't like others to praise her appearance. She doesn't care about these, Amazon warriors are like this.

However, for the sake of the image of the Justice League, Xiao Dai still forced a smile, even though he was still holding the weapon in his hand: "Thank you, but we are in a hurry now and have some questions for you. The groove in the sea before our bow is Who did it?”

There is a deep groove in the sea. It is not long. It looks a bit like the coin slot of a game console or a public phone. You can see the dark sea bottom below.

"Well, that was the handiwork of God. Yes, my client not long ago was a god!" The captain opened the money bag again and said a little ostentatiously: "He gave me wealth, and I will move to the city when I get home. Live, buy a big house, and marry a beautiful woman.”

Bobo, who was squatting on Deathstroke's shoulder, glanced into the money bag and shook his head: "Although I don't want to shatter your dream, this is a bag of Fool's gold coins, which is only worth about thirty US dollars. It's because of the engraving on it. For the sake of nice patterns.”

Fool's gold, also called pyrite, is worthless at all. This bag of gold coins is worth about the same as a bag of arcade steel coins.

"Impossible! This is gold! God will never lie to me! By the way, you must be trying to cheat me of my gold coins! You evil monster! You are covered in black hair!"

Bobo was so angry that he was breathing rapidly. Although he didn't like being called a monkey, what he hated most was being thought that he wasn't even a monkey!

"Are you stupid? I am Detective Orangutan, a member of the Justice League Dark, do you understand?" The orangutan stood up on Deathstroke's shoulders in excitement, scratching his head and taking off his hat: "Gold is much softer than yellow iron, you Won’t you check it out?”

"Justice League Dark? Never heard of it!" The captain of the fishing boat sneered, took out a gold coin from his bag, and waved it in front of the orangutan: "I have already tested it, and you are using your orangutan to remind you? Wonder Woman Xia, keep an eye on him and don’t let him steal my money, I’ll bite him right now to show you.”

As he spoke, he really put the golden coin into the corner of his mouth and bit it down hard.

The two women and Deathstroke were both super warriors, and all three of them could clearly hear the sound of the man's teeth breaking, which was crisper than ordinary fractures. It was very special.

But the fisherman didn't notice this. He proudly took out the blood-stained money from his mouth and said with a leaky mouth:

"Did you see it? How deep the tooth mark is. This is a gold coin. You just want to defraud me of money, you despicable monster."

"Alas." Bobo wanted to say something else, but in the end he just shook his head and lay motionless on Deathstroke's shoulder. He really couldn't persuade such a lunatic.

Su Ming touched his head, wiped the sea water from his face, and comforted him: "Don't worry, Bobo, Merlin has modified this person's cognition and senses. In his eyes, this is a gold coin. What do we say? It’s all useless, he only believes in what he sees.”

When Su Ming saw the 'coin slot' that was hundreds of kilometers long on the sea, he had probably determined that Merlin had arrived first. It would be difficult for others to do such a thing.

"So he's crazy. We don't know what else Merlin has changed about him. We need to get him to find someone to exorcise him." This man is just a victim. Bobo has no reason to continue to be angry. He just uses sympathy. Look at the fisherman.

But fortunately, Merlin only played a prank on him and didn't kill him, which was considered a blessing.

"Xiao Dai, ask the Black Hawk Team to come over and deal with this matter." Su Ming took out the Night Sword, took off the X metal disc on it, and put it on the back of Bobo and Donna's heads: "This thing should be able to prevent Everyone's perception has been modified by magic, we will go down now, but we must be careful."

Wonder Woman had given her one before, but she could continue to use it this time. She knew what to do.

The Black Hawk Squad used to be Hawk Girl's subordinates, the security force on Black Hawk Island. After Hawk Girl joined the Justice League, these people also joined the Justice League, and their main task was to wipe the butts of the heroes.

For example, if civilians are injured or water pipes are disconnected due to fighting, and the heroes don't have time to deal with it, they will be left to deal with the aftermath.

Xiao Dai took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to the hall. Then she took out a small disc from her pocket and put it on the back of her head. She nodded to the captain: "The storm is coming. It's not safe here. You have to go back immediately." Go to the port."

If you insist on saying that the gold is fake, this person will probably go crazy. Disillusionment of the dream of getting rich will be very harmful to some people.

"Okay, don't take my money."

The captain held his money bag vigilantly, walked sideways like a crab facing the people, and quickly slipped back into the cabin. Soon, the sound of the engine starting was heard.

When Donna saw this man's attitude, she felt pathetic and ridiculous, and she let out a cry from her little nose.

"Hmph, such a person has no idea what terrible things have happened to him. Let's take action immediately. Merlin's ability can modify the reality that others see, which is even more dangerous."

Bobo hugged Deathstroke's neck tightly and adjusted his body posture to prepare for landing:

"Merlin is called the strongest mage for a reason. I want to remind everyone that he can not only modify the reality that others see, but he can also directly use magic to construct certain realities. He created the Avalon dimension. Let's go down Be sure to be careful of traps later.”
