Coulson still managed to drive safely.

Between Merlin's slightly worse condition now, Coulson also deliberately lowered his speed. After almost 20 minutes, he parked his car in front of a very large building on the border between Manhattan and Queens.

When Colson stopped, Merlin rolled down the car window, and he looked at the building with a height of nearly 150 meters in front of him, which was covered with glass panels and looked bright in the sun. On the surface, there is a very large black and white eagle logo of S.H.I.E.L.D., hanging above it.

The building in front of me has a main body and two subsidiary buildings of different heights, which are connected with each other by the same path as the glass walkway, and there is a huge square below the main building.

It looks imposing.

"This building..."

Merlin asked:

"When did you move in?"

"3 months ago."

Coulson stopped the car, and while turning off the engine, he pulled out the car key and said to Merlin:

"This is the office building that Director Frey wants. It has been secretly built for several years. It is declared to be a large commercial office building, but in fact, we all call it the "Trident" building. This is a comprehensive office building, the whole Many scattered offices on the East Coast are concentrated here."

"S.D.O.L.D.'s office is also here?"

Merlin asked.

Coulson took out Merlin's wheelchair from the trunk. He helped Merlin walk out of the car and explained:

"There's just a liaison office here. We also have a new headquarters. The office area of ​​the 6th basement of Bell Telephone Company in the 21st century now belongs to us."

"Old town."

Merlin placed his hands on the armrests of the wheelchair, and Coulson even laid a blanket on him.

He was pushed by Coulson to the square of the Trident Building, and he said:

"Sure enough, those of us who work in the dark do not even have an office building under the sun... but okay, the old town is secret enough, here... it looks a little too dazzling."

Talking, he glanced at the S.H.I.E.L.D. logo hanging outside the building in front of him. The gadget was estimated to be clear from a few kilometers away. He shook his head and said softly:

"An intelligence organization, it's not good to be so swaggering."

"But you can't deny, sir."

Coulson pushed Merlin into the elevator. He said:

"Intelligence work is only part of the huge system of S.H.I.E.L.D., and it is not the most important part. As a direct subordinate department of the World Security Council, we really should have an official headquarters."

"The most important thing is that the Trident Building looks cool, doesn't it?"

"Ding"

As the elevator doors closed slowly, Merlin also nodded. He said:

"Yes, it's really cool. Fury's long-cherished wish has finally come true."

A few minutes later, on the 24th floor of the Trident Building, Merlin saw Fury.

His appearance is no different from what it looked like a year ago. He still wears a black trench coat, boots and military trousers. He wears a blindfold on his left eye and a black turtleneck sweater that has not changed over the years.

He was waiting for Merlin in a medical room. When Merlin was pushed into the medical room, he also saw Dr. Hall standing beside Fury.

The latter has some more changes than a year ago, specifically... the hair is thinner.

It seems that for more than a year, this doctor was really entrusted with heavy tasks. He seemed tired and stressed.

"Look at who is here."

Fury turned around when he heard the movement, and when he saw Merlin, he opened his arms and said in a slightly joyous voice:

"A lot of people are caring about you, Merlin, your recovery time is much earlier than we expected."

Merlin looked at Fury and he said with a chuckle:

"In your opinion, how long do I have to sleep?"

"At least 2 years."

Fury hugged his shoulders, he snorted:

"This is an estimate given by experts."

"Dr. Charles? Right?"

Merlin says:

"You still sent me to the mutant who can probe the heart."

"how do you know?"

Fury looked at his subordinate in surprise. The latter leaned weakly on the wheelchair. He shrugged:

"When I was in a coma, I could hear what you said around me."

"Ok."

Fury smiled. He crouched down and stared at Merlin. He patted Merlin's cold hand. He said:

"In short, just wake up, I still have many tasks for you."

"I just woke up and let me rest for a while, okay?"

Merlin said with some headaches:

"At least wait until I can move freely, can't I?"

"Haha, I'm just kidding."

Fury stood up and waved his hand, indicating that Coulson could leave. He pushed Merlin towards Dr. Hall, he said:

"Actually, it's good for you... At least you can finally stay in the office in peace and quiet. Recently, New York is a bit uneven. I mean, you'd better resolve this matter quickly."

"Trust me."

Merlin says:

"I have already started to solve it."

"That's good."

Fury pushed Merlin to Dr. Hall, who said to Merlin with some guilt:

"Merlin, I knew I wouldn't change your watch. It was the gravity that I gave you that hurt your body. I'm sorry."

"Don't say that, doctor."

Merlin looked at the guilty Dr. Hall, he comforted:

"Actually, the tiny "Gaia" system also saved me. Without your help, Hill may finally recover it, it may just be a corpse."

"Maybe you can tell us what happened then."

Dr. Fury and Dr. Hall put Merlin's body on the left and right, and placed him on a CT-like instrument next to him. The director stood beside Merlin, and he asked:

"What the **** is it that hurts you like this?"

"It's Mandalin."

Merlin was lying on the slightly feverish treatment device. He turned his head to look at Fury. He said:

"This matter is related to magic, but you can simply understand that in the caves of Afghanistan, Mandalin and I fought across the sky. I failed and was almost killed...just not as good as others."

"About that mandalin..."

Fury asked solemnly:

"Can you tell me anything else?"

"No more."

Merlin shook his head. Before being sent to the treatment cabin slowly by the slowly activated treatment device, he said to Fury:

"I know, I have told you all. Of course, about his special attack methods, after the treatment is over, I will tell you in detail."

"Ok."

Fury nodded. He looked at his watch and said to Merlin:

"After 30 minutes, I will be back. I have something to tell you."

Thirty minutes later, when Merlin was sent out of the silver treatment cabin, Fury was ready to return to the treatment room.

When Merlin sat back in his wheelchair again, he saw Fury walk into the room with a document bag covered with the shield of the SHIELD in his hand.

"I guess it should be good news?"

Merlin looked at Fury. The latter nodded and handed the document bag to Merlin. He said:

"This is really good news."

Dr. Hall next to them is collating the test data. This time the treatment is accurate, it is to do a comprehensive test for Merlin's body to determine the follow-up treatment.

It has been almost 20 hours since Merlin woke up to now, and his control of the body is slowly recovering.

At least the fingers are not shaking as hard as before.

He untied the document bag in his hand, took out the document in it, glanced at it, and found that it was his resume, that is, the personnel file.

There is no change in other things. Only in Merlin’s professional level, the original 5th level agent has been changed to 6th level, and after the sublevel, there is a special mark, above which is an "η". , Which is the "7" in the Greek alphabet.

Merlin noticed that the font used for this "η" is different from the fonts of other words. Under the lighting of the treatment room, it exudes a silver-grey feeling.

"What does it mean?"

Merlin looked up and looked at Fury:

"Isn't the highest level of S.H.I.E.L.I.E.L.E. title only 6?"

"Now, you are welcome to step into level 7."

Fury held his arms and leaned against the metal cabinet next to it.

He seriously said to Merlin:

"The scale of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s board is getting bigger and bigger, and the affairs we are responsible for are constantly being subdivided. I realized that with the increase in the number of members in our affairs framework, those who were originally loosely managed, but the number The huge confidential database needs to be further divided into confidential authorities."

"This is very important, Merlin, I can't expose some confidential information that would jeopardize social order, so I was exposed to a logistics agent who was promoted to level 5 after a long time of work. Of course, this is just not so A suitable example."

Fury explained:

"Aside from you secret agents in the SHIELD, the vast majority are ordinary people who work for pay and benefits. Do you understand what I mean? I have to build a wall between them and you, not only In order to protect our secrets, it is also to protect their safety."

"Now above level 6, there are also 7-10 levels of agent privileges. In the entire SHIELD, less than 3% of people know your existence. We will pass through the huge staff of SHIELD Proof of time, to screen out some people who are truly trustworthy."

"You still do, Fury."

Merlin put the file back in the folder, he looked at Fury, he said:

"Always guess anyone with the greatest suspicion."

"This is a necessary caution, Merlin."

Fury retrieved the document and he said to Merlin:

"Doubt, it's a lot safer than opening up to everyone at the beginning and being stabbed from the back. You are also an old agent, and I believe you can understand this."

"I didn't say "no", did I?"

Merlin smiled and said:

"It's good. The secret is the secret. The less people know, the better."

"Okay, gentlemen, let's put your secret affairs first."

Dr. Hall walked to the two with the printed test results. He handed the sheets of paper filled with data to Merlin. He said:

"There is no doubt that your situation is recovering, Merlin."

"Does this mean that I will recover soon?"

Merlin glanced at the data. He had a headache and put the test result aside. He looked at Dr. Hall and asked straightforwardly:

"How long can I return to my previous state?"

"Unfortunately, I can't tell you."

Dr. Hall pushed his glasses. He said:

"Gravitonium is distributed in your body in the form of a particle. I currently have no way to extract it, but I am studying it. This may take some time, but I already have some eyebrows."

"This substance has never been combined with the human body before, and frankly, you can survive, it has surprised me."

Dr. Hall sighed. He explained:

"Gravitonium is essentially a special element, and many of its characteristics are unknown to us. From the current data, except for the previous conscious blockade, it has not caused too much negative effects on your body. Impact, but this is temporary, no one knows whether it will change again with the passage of time."

"Ok."

Merlin looked at his hands exactly as before and said softly:

"Then so, doctor, if there is any news about the device for extracting gravium in my body, please notify me as soon as possible, okay?"

"I will do my best, Merlin."

Dr. Hall said seriously:

"If you have any unpleasant changes in your body, please notify me as soon as possible."

"Dr. Hall is currently developing the "Gaia Engine" project for SHIELD."

Fury explained on one side:

"His project is now one of the important proposals of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the World Security Council also attaches great importance to it. He will be stationed at S.H.I.E.L.D., so it is very convenient for you to find him."

"Ok."

Merlin nodded, he yawned slightly tiredly, he said to Fury:

"If there is no other important thing, then I will go back to rest first?"

"Go."

Fury waved at Merlin:

"Have a good rest at this time, and, don't forget about the vampire."

"of course."

Merlin turned the wheel of the wheelchair himself, and he said without looking back:

"I will pay close attention."

Coulson was waiting for Merlin outside the laboratory. He drove Merlin back to his home in Hell's Kitchen and then left. During this period of time, because of the active vampires, S.D.O.L.D.'s affairs were many. Before Merlin officially returned to the leadership position of the Department of Mystery Affairs, Coulson still needed to continue to take full responsibility for the overview.

After Coulson left, Merlin stayed in his living room. He looked at the familiar, almost unchanged things around him. For a time, he felt a little affectionate.

After a few minutes, Merlin leaned on the wheelchair. He tried to stretch out his fingers. In the empty living room, with the bending of his fingers, the vase on the coffee table in front of him was like an invisible hand. The same, slowly suspended.

Merlin felt the weak force. He frowned and looked at the vase that was spinning in the air. He put his fingers in front of him.

After a moment, he whispered:

"Not all bad things..."
