"This ghost place!"

Merlin was sitting in a tavern that he had closed earlier. He was manipulating his guardian spirit Raven Victor, flying fast over the vast Gobi south of Kandahar City.

With the sharing of the vision of the guardian spirit, Merlin looked around and found that he could hardly see any man-made buildings except for a barren land where the sun was hot.

He controlled the spirit of the raven to quickly fly over the deserted and uninhabited earth. The spirit body that ordinary people could not see at this moment was like a moving radar, trying to find signs of life on this wild plateau.

But searches in the past few hours have told Merlin that disappointing result.

He seems to have made a stupid decision.

He is a little too small to see this piece of land called "Imperial Cemetery".

In the past few hours, he manipulated Victor and quickly searched several canyons in southern Kandahar, some large and some small, but he found nothing.

In this uninhabited place, it is easy to get lost if you only rely on the markers on the ground to distinguish the direction.

Although Merlin does not need a compass to identify Victor’s location, and the spirit can’t talk about fatigue, but relying on his own magic to operate Victor’s full exploration of this mountainous area, he estimates that it will take a It takes weeks or even half a month to find the eyebrows.

This is still under the premise that he has good luck.

The most important thing is that the existence of the guardian Victor not only needs to be maintained by magic, but its connection with Merlin also has a range. After more than 30 kilometers, the connection between Merlin and Victor will become very weak.

In other words, once Victor has explored the nearby area, Merlin will need to set off on his own and head towards those unknown areas with bad weather.

Under the high temperature of the day, even the incarnation of the fog will make Merlin feel hot, and the temperature of the ground is hot. Although it is not fatal, it will make Merlin’s spirit very tired and will be physical. Generate a great burden.

Once in the desert, in order to maintain the best condition, Merlin can only choose to avoid activities at the highest temperature, so the search efficiency is even lower.

And no matter how mysterious and powerful he is, he is still a life, and life requires eating and drinking. In the desert, drinking water can be solved with a water-calling spell, but always compressing biscuits and military food, Merlin will not be able to stand it.

In this regard, he is actually a very picky person.

Merlin controlled Victor's suspension in mid-air, and he looked at the map in front of him. There were already several red crosses on the map, representing the places where Victor had already searched.

But looking at the red fork in the exploration area of ​​less than one-twentieth of the mountain area on the map, Merlin felt his head really hurt.

Although to do anything, it takes effort to gain. But the stupid way is the stupid way. The use of the stupid way often means that the effort and gain are not directly proportional.

After a few minutes, Merlin released himself from the Raven Spirit.

In the distant sky of Kandahar, the Raven Spirit made an unpleasant cry and dissipated into the sky. In Merlin's tavern, Merlin thought for a moment, then touched his mobile phone and called Fury.

"Things have some eyebrows."

Merlin said to Fury:

"But I have a problem now. I need to use the authority of SHIELD to use military satellites to scan the mountains in southern Kandahar. I have now determined that the Ten Commandments are located there."

"The use of satellites is not a problem."

Fury replied:

"But you have to be mentally prepared for nothing, Merlin."

"If the militants' hiding places of the Ten Commandments can be easily discovered by satellites, they are quite cruel to the civil war."

"I read the report you sent back a few days ago, and I can only say that if the Ten Commandments can exist in this broken place in Afghanistan for more than ten years or more, it can only explain that the group of guys know how to hide Myself."

Fury's words made sense, but Merlin was only trying in other ways. He said to Fury:

"I can't follow Tusuoji's, looking for the canyon after the canyon, Fury, that's a waste of time. The situation near Kandahar is worse than I thought. Various armed factions are attacking each other, and the CIA is still secretly poking The fire supports some forces. It’s just like a pool of completely muddy water. I am now desperate to complete this thing, and then leave this ghost place."

"I need you to use satellites to help me exclude some targets and leave areas that need to be searched."

"Row."

Fury promised very simply, he said:

"The detailed search takes time, and when the results come out, I will send it to your mailbox. In addition, Merlin, I also found something in New York that may be helpful to you."

"The CIA made a fine-tuning of the agent system in Afghanistan two weeks ago, and a new supervisor went there. His name is Rawlins. It should be responsible for intelligence gathering and supporting local forces. The most coincident Yes, he should be near Kandahar now."

"You think there is a problem with that agent supervisor?"

Merlin asked:

"In addition, you are also a wired person inside the CIA? I have only heard of agents who broke into the enemy, but I haven't spoken of spies who broke into my own department. In this regard, Fury, you really have a hand.

"No, I still have the bottom line, Merlin."

Fury explained:

"Even if an organization that has been passed down for a long time is no matter how decadent, there must be people who adhere to the principle. They don’t want to see the organization they serve fall into the dark. The lucky thing is that my friends are actually quite many. , A friend who works in the CIA and still maintains principles is normal for someone like me, isn’t it?"

"Oh, it turned out to be a friend."

Merlin shrugged and said to Fury:

"Then this is the case, I will look at that Rollinster worker, and I will wait for your results."

Merlin hung up the phone, he looked at the time, and then made himself a simple lunch.

After more than ten minutes, he was wearing a loose local costume, wearing a sunhat and eyes, driving his broken three-handed car, and headed outside Kandahar.

He plans to walk around in the afternoon to see if he can find something interesting.

But just ten minutes after Merlin drove out of the city, he accidentally found a weird young man on the roadside.

It was a tall, thin white man.

He had short blond hair and was wearing jeans and sneakers, probably because of the hot weather. He took off his coat and tied it around his waist, and carried something similar to a schoolbag on his shoulder.

If this dress is on the streets of New York, there is absolutely no problem, and it won't even attract anyone's attention.

But here is Afghanistan, a place where war is brewing, and just on this desolate road, such a person who looks like a student appears in such a dress, how to look abnormal.

After thinking about it, Merlin drove the car and stopped a few meters away from the young man. He shouted to the young man who looked left and right:

"Hey, do I need a ride?"

"Uh, thank you, kind gentleman."

Hearing Merlin's invitation, it was already very tired, and the haggard young man was somewhat embarrassed to thank, and then quickly opened the door and sat in the back seat.

Merlin started the car again, and in the murmur of the engine, he watched the young man through the rear view mirror.

He only looks like 20 years old, definitely not more than 25 years old.

"Where did you come from? Traveling to Afghanistan at this time is not a good choice."

Merlin asked casually.

The young man in the back replied:

"I'm from Cincinnati. I didn't come here to travel. Actually, I appeared here just because of a...er, accident."

"What accident can send you from North America to this **** place?"

Merlin pretended to be very interested, he said to the young people behind:

"Oh, by the way, my name is Yuri, I am from New York and run a failed bar in Kandahar. But now that business is getting harder and harder, I plan to go home after a while. How about you?"

"My name is Lincoln, sir. Lincoln Campbell."

The young man with beautiful blue eyes answered politely:

"I'm a medical student. As for how I appeared here, er, forget it, you certainly won't believe it."

"Ok?"

Merlin was interested, he said:

"I’ve been in this **** place for almost 2 years. This place is boring. I’m curious about everything now. So, let’s talk, Lincoln, maybe I can help you? Look, you are here. I was unfamiliar, and I happened to know how to get to the airport."

"Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't want to say."

Merlin pointed to the rough road ahead. He said:

"I will put you in the next town, where there are coaches to Kabul."

Lincoln was silent for more than ten seconds, and there was obvious daze and confusion on his face. It seems that he also has a headache for his current situation. Under Merlin's deliberate guidance, he feels that he really needs help now.

So, after a moment, he looked up and said to Merlin:

"Actually, Mr. Yuri, I was drinking in a bar in Cincinnati two hours ago... and now, I have crossed most of the world and appeared in Afghanistan."

"I was brought over by a weird person. He can travel through the space. He was originally going to take me to a secret place, but it seemed like he felt something urgent in the middle, so I threw me here alone."

"Sounds like nonsense after getting drunk, and what a hell's magic story."

A trace of fine awn flashed in Merlin's eyes, but he pretended to pat the steering wheel angrily:

"If you don't want to tell me your story, Lincoln, but now I feel that you are insulting my IQ."

In that way, he was like a normal person who heard absurd words.

Behind him, the young man shrugged helplessly. He said:

"Look, as I said before, you certainly won't believe it. In fact, even I myself don't quite believe what I saw. I initially thought I was still in a hangover."

"Then suppose you are telling the truth, there is really a weirdo who can travel the world at will. But why would he take you to the world?"

Merlin mumbled and said:

"If I have the power to go through space, I will go to grab a bank, or to be a superhero, instead of kidnapping a poor medical student, right?"

"I think so too."

Lincoln nodded, the expression on his face changed slightly, and then showed an expression of approval, he said:

"I feel like I'm dreaming now, maybe I'm sunburned. Maybe so, Mr. Yuri, you can put me in the next town. I'll take the car to Kabul myself."

The expression on Lincoln's face changed, but he kept observing Merlin.

This young man has a secret, he almost revealed his secret just now.

Obviously, at the most critical time, he realized that Merlin was just a stranger he had just met.

Well, this is a very smart young man.

Merlin shook his head slightly. He was interested in the secret of the encounter young man, but now is not the time to explore that secret.

"Okay, you can take a break. We have to get there in a dozen minutes."

Merlin says:

"I will wake you up then."

"Well, thank you for your kindness, Mr. Yuri."

Lincoln said:

"It's so reassuring to hear familiar language in this foreign country."

"Oh, then you are much luckier than me."

Merlin smiled, he stopped talking, and in the back seat, Lincoln also closed his eyes in a slight bump. As you can see, the young man was very tired, and with this opportunity, Merlin also used the dark perception to detect Lincoln's life activities.

After a few seconds, Merlin retracted his perception.

He can be sure that Lincoln Campbell is an ordinary young man.

There is neither magical fluctuations nor eccentric energy hidden in the body of the mutant. I really don't know how he got involved in such supernatural events.

Melin turned the steering wheel and continued along this extremely poor road. After turning a crook, Melin saw that nearly 200 meters away from the opposite side, three military vehicles were looking in his direction.

The vehicles were filled with soldiers wearing local costumes, but Merlin saw several white faces in it. If Merlin made a right guess, this should be a "special person" operating in Afghanistan. They executed None is a peaceful task.

Merlin has seen some information inside the SHIELD. After the Soviet Union withdrew its troops from Afghanistan 10 years ago, the CIA immediately began to support pro-American forces in the local area. To be honest, this country has been fighting a brutal civil war since 1995, and it has continued until now. It is difficult to say whether there are factors promoted by external forces.

"Oh, war."

Merlin sighed. He was a secret agent, but he was not interested in war.

After a few seconds, Merlin and the three military vehicles were getting closer and closer. When there were less than 100 meters on both sides, Merlin’s mental perception suddenly became active in a jumping gesture, and his heartbeat was here. The moment became very fast, and the magic in the body began to boil.

It seems that something not so good is about to happen.

And in Merlin's gaze, after 2 seconds, under the edge of the three fast-moving vehicles on the edge of the road, an already-arranged trap was triggered.

"boom"

In Merlin's gaze, a blazing flame exploded nearly 50 meters in front of him. He watched the first military vehicle engulfed in flames, and then flew into the air.

"Shet!"

Merlin scolded, turning the steering wheel subconsciously, and his car rushed down the road.

At the next moment, a second violent explosion sounded behind him.

His bad luck made another contribution.
