The frontcourt battle ended after more than ten minutes. Merlin took a moment to wipe out the group of dangerous Batman samurai and helped Elsa to solve the defected samurai hidden in the stadium.

The girl vented her dissatisfaction at the cost of a few more cuts on her arm.

This shows that Elsa is still a little bit young in combat. If she is more adept, try to solve the problem remotely and assassinated, maybe she will not be injured.

But after the battle ended, Merlin encountered a very bad problem.

"Robin, your father...I mean, Batman?"

Merlin took Elsa out of the stadium and saw Demian, a little anxious standing on the side of the road, and Dr. Douglas, who was stunned beside him.

It seems that Demian and Bruce also completed their tasks perfectly.

But Bruce was gone.

Facing Merlin's question, Demian pointed to the court ahead, and he said dissatisfiedly:

"When we rescued the doctor, an unplanned guy jumped out. Father... Batman asked me to take the doctor away. He stayed there to block the weird man. But he hasn't returned yet, and the communication was also Cut it off, and I was planning to find him."

"Weird person?"

Merlin tasted the word. He looked at Demian and asked seriously:

"How weird?"

"When I took this cumbersome doctor away, I glanced behind me."

Demian reached out his hand and gestured on his face, he said:

"He wore an owl mask, dressed in a gray hunting suit of the last century, carrying a knife, like a drama actor."

"You mean, he didn't clash with Batman?"

Merlin asked again.

"No, at least when I left."

Demian said affirmatively:

"But that guy is dangerous, and I can feel that he...how to say it doesn't look like a normal person."

"You take the doctor back."

Merlin says:

"I and Elsa go to see it."

"I am coming too."

Demian stepped forward and said:

"You know my relationship with him. Although I don't like him very much, he is... I'm a little worried after all."

"Don't worry, boy."

Merlin reached out his hand and put it on Demian's shoulder. His other hand gently drew a triangle in the air. Under the influence of the Axifal Seal, which could affect the sanity, Merlin's voice became more gentle:

"No matter what happens to him, I will bring him back safely. Go back and rest, take a good sleep, you look tired."

Demian touched the pool water of the Salar's pool from an early age. The magic of the Sannomiya transformed him and made him resistant to magic. But the magic that Merlin released was an exception.

Merlin is the son of the Sannomiya. His magic power is in the same vein as the pool of Salar, and it can only play a 5 point effect on others. It can play almost 15 points on Demian.

Almost instantaneously, Demian was abruptly changed his mind.

He yawned and said lazily to Merlin:

"Okay, then I will go back to rest, you must bring him back... I admit that he fights very well, but he is too indecisive, he disappointed me, I have to find a way to educate him."

"Go back quickly, little one."

Merlin patted Demian's head, and the latter dragged the doctor who was stunned by him, all the way to the path near the stadium. After a while, with the roar of the engine, a cool, black bat-like appearance was modified The sports car disappeared quickly at the end of the road.

After Demian left, Elsa, who had been watching the scene with her arms akimbo, stood beside Merlin, she said:

"The Seal of Axi is good, Merlin. How many things have you concealed me... When did you learn the magic seal of the demon hunter? From whom did you learn the seal?"

"Whistler taught me."

Merlin looked back at the stadium and he casually said:

"But this is not a matter of urgency now, we have to find Batman... how can he suddenly disappear, this is not in line with his style of acting."

"After this incident, you have to tell me the original thing, Merlin."

Elsa said dissatisfiedly:

"I am your companion, accompany you from birth to death, these things, you should not hide me."

"I try my best."

Merlin didn’t want to say too much about these things. The existence of the white wolf was related to Master Ulysses’s entrustment. Elsa’s father did not let Merlin disclose his news to Elsa. This was from Elsa’s father. The request was to protect Elsa from being involved in more dangerous things, and Merlin could not violate him.

"Go, I need your tracking ability."

Merlin turned into black mist, rolled up Elsa, and quickly came to the basement of the stadium. Elsa appeared from the black mist. She squatted on the ground, looking at the traces left here.

Merlin also perceived the surrounding environment with his vision, and there was a strange taste remaining in this passage, much like the smell in the hospital.

"Did you smell it?"

Merlin whispered.

"Well, such a big smell will not be noticed unless I lose my sense of smell."

Elsa said without looking up:

"It's the smell of formalin. It's very strong. It seems that I met Batman as a doctor, or someone who was in regular contact with formalin, maybe a corpse officer or a forensic... strange There are no signs of fighting here."

The Huntress frowned and said:

"I only found two footprints, which extended to the front exit. From their standing position, they did not have physical contact. Batman took the initiative to follow him away, either they knew each other before, or... . He may be controlled by spirit."

"He will not be controlled."

Merlin said firmly:

"I have contacted him, and his will has reached an unimaginable level, to control his spirit, unless it is a great wizard who is proficient in Soul Retrieval... but there is no trace of magic left here."

"Here!"

Elsa walked along the footprints. After a while, she walked to Merlin with a communicator in the ear and handed the thing to Merlin:

"I found this on the skylight at the end."

"let me see."

Merlin took the communicator. He put it in his ear and tapped it lightly. At the next moment, a recording sounded in Merlin's ear:

"Batman, Son of Gotham... please follow me. Owl Court, has been waiting for a long time."

After a weird, hoarse voice, Bruce's deep voice.

"Owl Court? I thought you were just legends in nursery rhymes..."

"No, we really exist, right in front of your childhood window, on the crying night of every child, in the darkness of Gotham. We have always existed, we have been watching you, and now finally It's time to meet."

The weird voice said to Bruce:

"Come with me, we have many secrets to share with you."

"About what?"

Bruce asked.

"A lot, a lot of secrets that disappeared in the dark. Like your father, like your mother, like your family...do you need me to say more? Bruce... Wayne!"

The recording is over here.

Merlin's brows were also deeper. This recording should have been intentionally left by Bruce, maybe it was left to him.

"Owl Court?"

Merlin looked at Elsa, and he asked:

"Have you heard of this organization?"

"No."

Elsa shook her head decisively:

"There is no impression at all. The name is weird. It's not a serious organization at first."

"Batman mentioned nursery rhymes."

Merlin moved his finger, he said:

"Maybe it's a nursery rhyme unique to Gotham. I have to find someone who is familiar with these things... Elsa, your task is over. You will take Dr. Douglas back to New York at the fastest speed. His wife and daughter are still in the hands of the defecting warriors. You report this to Fury, and he will take care of the rest."

"how about you?"

Elsa did not refuse, she looked at Merlin:

"Are you going to stay here to help Batman?"

"Ok."

Merlin nodded. He looked at the communicator in his hand. He said:

"He is my friend. I have few friends, Elsa, so every one is important."

"what about me?"

Miss Bloodstone suddenly asked:

"Am I your friend?"

"What do you say?"

Merlin glanced at his subordinates, he said:

"If something goes wrong, I will do the same."

"Hah, you can talk too."

Miss Bloodstone laughed. She flicked her hair and said to Merlin:

"But the doctor, was taken away by the dragged child."

"It doesn't matter. You will go to Gotham Airport now. I will ask Bruce to arrange your itinerary. Maybe he will take you back to New York with his private plane."

Merlin squeezed his eyes at Elsa. He said:

"This man Bruce is very generous to his friends."

"Oh, private jet."

Elsa nodded in satisfaction, she said:

"Then I will leave now."

"Well, pay attention to safety on the road."

Merlin watched Miss Demon Hunter leave the abandoned stadium. He clenched the communicator in his hand. He had a hunch that Bruce should be caught in some very bad things.

The owl court man accurately stated his name and the murder of his parents, that is to say... the death of Bruce’s parents at that time now seems not so simple.

When Merlin contacted Bruce for the first time, he knew that the tragic death of his parents had always been a nightmare-like weakness in Bruce's heart. No wonder Bruce will leave Demian and face the weird organization alone.

Merlin took out his cell phone and made a call. He said to the person over the phone:

"Afu, help me arrange for Bruce's plane to send Elsa and Douglas back to New York. I found the clues Bruce left, I will look around and then I will go to Wayne Manor soon Meet with you...watch Demian, don't let him run around."

Afu's work efficiency is as high as before. Almost 20 minutes later, Elsa called and said that she and the comatose doctor had taken a super luxury private jet of Bruce Wayne and are now enjoying champagne. Ready to take off.

After sending away Elsa, Merlin finally no longer had to deliberately conceal Bruce’s identity. He returned to Wayne Manor with a shifting spell. At this early morning, old Afu was still asleep in the living room. .

Demian slept soundly on the sofa, and the effect of Merlin's Axifal was indeed too good.

"It was done by the Owl Court."

Merlin handed the communicator in his hand to Old Afu, who said to Afu:

"Bruce mentioned a'children's rhyme', is there any nursery rhyme about Owl Court on Gotham's side?"

"Have."

Afu looked solemnly after listening to the recording in the communicator, he said to Merlin:

"And it's a very old nursery rhyme. It is said that it was brought by the first generation of European immigrants who came to Gotham. It was used to frighten the disobedient children. For more than 200 years, this Tong Yao has not disappeared.

"Tell me to listen."

Merlin sat on the sofa, he picked up a glass of water and said to Afu:

"Don't miss any words."

"Ok."

Afu was born in the UK and grew up in Europe. Although he is not a Gotham native, he has lived here for decades and he knows some local customs.

He cleared his throat and spoke to Merlin about the old nursery rhyme:

"Be careful of the Owl Court, and keep an eye on you all the time."

"Peeping in the shadows of Ge Tancheng, hiding in the loft with a low wall."

"The secret words at the head of the bed lightened, and the ghosts secretly listened to you."

"Don't mention its name in the night, and use claws to find a way out."

Seriously, even if Old Afu read the nursery rhyme in a serious voice, the bad content implicit in it still caused Merlin to frown deeply.

This nursery rhyme is very strange, but after knowing that the owl court does exist, this represents the warnings in this nursery rhyme, perhaps not groundless.

"What the **** is going on in your city."

Merlin rubbed his forehead, he said with a headache:

"I've only been here for a few days, these strange things have happened."

"Gotham has always been like this."

Old Afu sighed, he said:

"When I was young, I heard some old people say that the city was cursed. It is said that during the Civil War, a wizard had sealed a demon here. Since then, the weather in Gotham has barely been bright. ...But the Wayne family has been rooted here for more than 200 years, and there haven't been too many problems. Until Lord Thomas and Mrs. Martha suffered a disaster, the Wayne family has been very lucky..."

"It has nothing to do with luck, Afu."

Merlin said softly:

"Obviously, there are invisible hands behind it all manipulating all this. But now is not the time to say this, we have to find Bruce first. The owl court lured him with his parents' affairs, and apparently they knew it was Bruce's taboo ."

"And I think they invited Bruce in the past... certainly not to invite him to drink tea. Afu, I heard that Bruce has a bat hole? There are a lot of equipment in it, right?"

"Take me over, we have to find my friend who is troubled and hardest as quickly as possible. The longer it is dragged, the more dangerous he is."
