Chapter 23: Merlin

The familiar feeling and the glorious brilliance that still made him unable to see anything. After everything was calm, Ethan swept around for the first time, and at the same time, his right hand was already on the hilt.

There is no heavy encirclement—this is the first time. I think of the previous two shuttles. Every time I opened my eyes, I was surrounded by a group of people. In the dark world, a group of Rogers still opened their bows and arrows, and shot him when something was wrong. The hornet's nest's posture left a huge shadow on him.

The landing location chosen by the shuttle magic circle every time seems to be quite unreliable-but thinking in another direction, it seems quite reliable to throw it in the safe zone every time.

"Don't be nervous, mages from other planes."

just relaxed a little, there was a voice from behind.

Ethan, who was startled for a moment, turned around and looked at the plain and steep mountain wall. The voice came from here, but there was no one in front of him.

"This is... illusion?"

Concentrating his mental energy and strengthening his senses, Ethan noticed a sense of incongruity. He still can't release his mental power so that he can find out more things. Now he can only detect what's wrong. To find out what's wrong, other extra methods are needed.

But the other party didn't seem to have any intentions to hide himself. With a wave of water-like waves, the original steep and bare mountain wall disappeared, revealing a narrow passage.

At the same time, an old man with a white beard dressed as the mage in the impression, holding a long stick, walked out with a blond teenager.

"Hello, guests from other worlds."

The old mage’s speech speed is very slow, and his soft voice seems to indicate that he is not malicious, but simply shows his hospitality-if he does not have him, he will unleash the bottomless wave of magic power like the sea. This is a prerequisite.

"Please don't get me wrong. As a mage, you should know that sometimes you have to do this to have a good conversation."

The old mage quickly took away his shocking magical power fluctuations, still speaking in that amiable tone.

"Furthermore, in order to break through the huge energy blockade to communicate with you for the first time, I tried too hard."

Yi Sen realized that he could hear the other party not because he could understand it, but because the other party used his mental power to communicate with him.

"I wiped it!"

Although he knows that he is still very weak, but every time he is linked with himself by a powerful mage like walking in the back garden, he is still very unhappy-it seems that he has to build something to prevent these mages from linking himself without even saying hello. the spirit of.

"Well, young man, you should be angry about this, but I hope you can give me a chance to compensate."

The old mage in front of him seemed to be a good person with strong moral qualities. He apologized for the first time and was also willing to offer compensation.

"For example, help you create a talisman that can defend against mental attacks? How about?"

Ethan was taken aback: "Can you read my thoughts?"

"Oh, no! I just think what you want most at this time is this kind of thing." The old mage showed his wisdom without any cover, and there was a bit of sharpness in his eyes that were full of kindness and kindness.

Ethan thought for a while, and decided not to care about compensation. The old mage seemed to regard making such a talisman as a simple matter in his words. It can be seen that he is very confident in his ability to make magic equipment, and now Ethan is not urgent. He needs such a defensive item—in fact, as his mental power increases, as long as he doesn’t encounter an existence that absolutely crushes himself, the other party can’t arbitrarily use mental power to invade successfully.

As for being able to invade successfully without knowing it, it proves that there is a huge gap in the strength of the two people. The other side can easily wipe themselves out of this world. If the other side is hostile, it would be meaningless to have such a talisman.

"So, what should I call you?"

The old mage saw Ethan expressing a willingness to communicate, and nodded happily: "My name is Merlin, you can just call me by my name."

"Merlin..."

Ethan frowned. He didn't know who Merlin was. He was called Merlin, and he was also a powerful mage. His identity was already obvious. He was just thinking in his head which Merlin was this? As a famous legendary magician in the West, he has appeared in many works, and there are even more works in which although he did not appear directly, he indirectly mentioned this majesty.

"Not a bad man with white hair... One possibility can be ruled out."

"The stick in my hand doesn't look like a metal mechanical product, and one can be excluded."

scratched his head, he realized that there were too many works he knew, and it was impossible to eliminate them one by one.

And his reaction made Merlin on the opposite side very curious.

"Young man, have you heard of my name or have you met me in other dimensions?"

Ethan was a little surprised by Merlin’s question, but he quickly figured it out—from the very beginning, Merlin broke the fact that he came from other planes, which shows that this great magician has a concept of multiverse. You must know, maybe even more than you know.

"Wait..." Ethan suddenly thought of a possibility: "My teleportation array will send me here, isn't it your ghost?"

Mei Lin was taken aback, then smiled and nodded: "I didn't expect you to think of it so soon. I didn't intentionally hide it. In fact, even if you didn't notice it, I will mention it later."

Ethan's face turned black. The last time he was caught by Gu Yi, it was also because when he was traveling into the Marvel universe, he was intercepted by this supreme mage who guarded the earth from being invaded by other planes. At that time, he knew something powerful. The existence of can interfere with your own transmission.

I didn’t expect to meet another person so soon, so I wouldn’t dare to use the magic circle to shuttle between the planes in the future. Does the ghost know if he will run into a guy who just killed him without saying a word?

"Or, can I teach you how to better control that huge energy without making it as conspicuous as the moon in the dark night sky, so as to prevent you from being noticed by other wizards the next time you teleport?"

Merlin quickly put forward a condition that Ethan could not refuse, and this was exactly the problem he desperately wanted to solve.

"I really want to solve this problem." Ethan nodded and admitted it, but he didn't want to be led by Merlin like this: "Then, you who brought me here specially, want something more. What? The great Master Merlin."

Merlin deliberately intercepted him and changed the location of the teleportation in front of him, definitely in an attempt. If you suspected that this famous mage was a guardian of the plane like Gu Yi at first, Ethan denied it when he offered benefits again and again.

"This product has something to do with me."

He wondered what he was worth plotting in the eyes of this legendary super power? The only thing that is eye-catching is the ability to travel through planes, right? However, the previous words revealed that Merlin didn't seem to be interested in this ability-otherwise, why propose to help Ethan better grasp the space-time energy?

"Let's talk about it from another place, should we always stand here?"

"It should change place indeed."

"Then, please follow me, young man."

Merlin greeted him, turned around and walked back first, and Ethan followed him into the path hidden by magic. When passing by the location of the mountain wall, Ethan felt that he had passed through a very powerful wall of magic power. It felt like passing through a curtain of water, but was washed away by magic. Not only will there be no drenched embarrassment, but there are even some benefits: the spirit that was consumed by the previous shuttle seems to be restored.

The road is not long, just after walking for a while, the originally narrow passage suddenly opened up, and Ethan came to a very beautiful valley under the leadership of Merlin.

Various flowers and trees fill every inch of the valley, and countless kinds of blooming flowers fill the valley with the fragrance of flowers. The spirit was shocked again, and Ethan immediately noticed the extraordinaryness of these flowers and plants.

"Wonderland on earth!"

Merlin seems to be deliberately waiting for this compliment. UU reading

"This is where I live."

The only man-made object in the valley is an ordinary-looking house, which looks like a very ordinary three-story building from the outside. But when Ethan stepped into it, the huge space made him understand that this cabin was definitely not as simple as his appearance.

A few people did not stop, and under the leadership of Merlin, they walked into a room—this is a reception room. Ethan also saw some fruits on the table.

"Please sit down!"

Merlin sat down by herself first, waited until Ethan sat down opposite her before continuing.

"I wanted to communicate with you for a while, and then tell you my purpose, but it seems that you don't like this method, so I don't have to keep hiding it." Mei Lin just wanted to speak to the blond boy next to him. Suddenly remembered something like: "Oh, sorry, I might have to offend before that."

Merlin nodded his forehead with a finger: "There will be no side effects, but I will feel a little swelling and numbness in the head, or a slight headache."

Before he finished speaking, the finger that touched his forehead slowly pointed to Ethan, a stream of light first flowed from Merlin's forehead to the finger, and then swished into Ethan's head following the movements of the old mage.

His body became stiff, and Ethan, who was about to get up, stopped alive again. He had already realized what magic Merlin had just used—he “wrapped up” some of the language knowledge in his mind and then “transmitted” it to him. Ethan made him master a foreign language in the shortest time.

"Hello, my name is Arthur." At the sign of Merlin, the blond boy stood up and introduced himself very formally in the language Ethan had just ‘learned’.
