"Here, it's still as high as it was then."

Merlin was standing on a sea cliff outside of Ci'en Port. He stood on the edge of the cliff and looked down. The tens of feet high sea cliff is not an insurmountable height for him now, but for Merlin that year As far as he is concerned, he only made a life of it, and then he completed the leap of survival.

"Have you jumped here before? Merlin."

A lot of data jumped out of Icarus's lens, and the results of field measurements of this cliff, she said to Merlin:

"When you were an ordinary person?"

"It wasn't an ordinary person at that time."

Merlin looked at the ocean in the dusk before him, the sunset reflected on the horizon was so beautiful, and seabirds flew around the sea reflecting the light, plus the ships on the sea, let Merlin see The scene looks so magnificent.

He replied to Icarus:

"Of course I wasn't as powerful as I was now, but I also had some strength. I was doomed at that time. In order to solve my own troubles, I traveled around this land. I met Bruce. We arrived at Ci'en Port together, and then I went to Europe, and then I went to Florida from here overnight, then Texas, and then back to New York."

"Ah, I was so embarrassed then."

Merlin stood by the sea cliff, akimbo, recalling the past, he said:

"Give everything, just to get a hope of relief, and always worry about whether the ability to lose control will hurt others."

He was silent for a few seconds and said to Icarus:

"But think about it, in fact, the situation I face now is the same. I am trapped in the game and I am not free, those shackles called responsibility, those heavy burdens, and those I have to face... Maybe in the past 14 years, nothing has changed."

"But you got stronger."

Icarus persuaded:

"No longer can you just accept it in the same way as before, you also have the power to choose."

"Choose to admit defeat or choose to obey?"

Merlin shook his head. He looked at the sea in front of him, listening to the tide that patted the reef at dusk, and watched the dark red raven spirit Victor flap his wings and spread joy in the air.

He says:

"No, it's not enough. These two are not what I want. I'm not strong enough to sway my destiny. I'm not enough to get the best award."

He took a deep breath, opened his arms, and faced the cliff in front of him. The black trench coat was hunted by the sea breeze behind him. His body leaned forward. In Victor’s loud hiss, Merlin’s body The completely uncontrolled parabola crashed into the sea below dozens of feet.

He felt the wind flapping on his body, he felt the whistle coming from his ear, he felt the falling faster and faster.

He said in a voice that only he could hear:

"I have to move on and find a way out of the winding mud..."

"As much as I am strong, I will be as free as possible."

"Om"

The moment before his body touched the icy water, the direction of the gravitational force applied to him suddenly changed, and he stood so lightly and stood on the water like a feather.

Between the shoes of the feet and the surface of the water, a slight ripple spread out.

Merlin held out his hand, and the silver trident pendant fell from his palm and fell into the water under his feet, just like a coin dropped into the water, and soon disappeared between the flashes of light.

After sending a signal, Merlin waited patiently. After nearly 10 minutes, a fast-paced light jumped suddenly on the sea in front of Merlin's eyes. During the continuous zooming of Icarus lenses, Merlin saw the sea water clearly. Creatures under Mercedes.

It was a blue, dotted green scale, and a huge seahorse with a beautiful saddle and reins.

Like a real galloping horse on land, this elegant and peculiar creature carried Vico the undersea man and galloped all the way towards Merlin.

Well, this should be the mount that Atlantis has, and it really is full of regional characteristics.

"Uh"

As he approached Merlin, Vico threw the reins, jumped from behind the hippocampus, broke through the water, and landed in front of Merlin.

He held the silver trident pendant in his hand, and there was not much smile on his face.

Vico is still exactly the same as in Merlin's memory 14 years ago. He is not old at all. He is wearing a quirky combat uniform and a watery waist knife. He looked at Merlin, and his eyes were full of scrutiny.

"Why? Don't you know me?"

Merlin spread his hands, smiling, and said to the undersea man in front of him:

"The memory of the Atlantis shouldn't be so bad, and I shouldn't be too old for you to recognize?"

"I'm just sighing."

Vico looked at Merlin and he said:

"The weak young man of that year, in just ten years, could let me hear your reputation in Atlantis, Merlin... Director, the miracle that you humans can create, there is It was really unreasonable."

"I was just an accident, you can understand that I was lucky."

Merlin said to Vico:

"We may be able to find some time to talk about what happened to Atlantis over the years, but not tonight, I will have to go back to dinner later, and the children are waiting for me."

"So, Vico, let's make a long story short."

Merlin looked around and stretched out his fingers to apply a magic enchantment around the two. He said to Vico:

"Do you know that there is a man named Namo in your kingdom of Atlantis?"

"Namo?"

When Vico heard the name, his expression immediately changed. He looked at Merlin in surprise, and he said:

"Yes, I know him. Namo was not an unknown person in Atlantis. He preached a dangerous and radical idea. He also had a group of supporters who were not so peaceful, but he had been missing for more than a year. By the way, his followers are also scattered. At least my intelligence officer told me that."

"I saw him just a few days ago."

Merlin did not conceal his encounter with Nemo, he looked at Vico and he said:

"I heard Namo say that your king, Atovas, Ovax is in poor health and may die in the next few years. Namo said he also has the right to claim the throne, he also said he would not let it go. The throne is inherited to the son of Ovax...not Arthur, I mean the other son of that tyrant, Aum."

"He does have the right to claim the throne, he did not lie to you."

Vico's expression became ugly. The royal attendant, who was loyal to the Atlantis royal family, rubbed his chin.

"Nammo does have blood from King Takul in the body, which is the supreme blood lineage of the Sea King of Atlanta from the first epoch, but unfortunately, his inheritance and status from her mother are not enough for him Accepted by his subjects because he has the other half of his lineage from land."

Vico is like an old scholar, saying in an old-fashioned tone:

"I know that your terrestrial people have passed the era of feudalism, but our Kingdom of Atlantis has its own national conditions here."

"In short, I mean, Namo has only a weak claim that, in terms of legitimacy, it is only slightly better than Arthur Jr.'s theory. In theory, as long as Prince Aum does not do stupid things, Na There is simply no possibility of assuming the throne."

When he finished, Vico narrowed his eyes, and he looked at Merlin:

"But I think you come to tell me this news, does it mean that you and the forces behind you are ready to support Namo to return to Atlantis and fight for the throne with Prince Aum? Are you ready to support a pro-land king?"

"No, this is not a good choice, Merlin, I advise you not to do this."

"I don't care if Namor can take the throne."

Merlin waved his hand and he explained to Vico:

"I also have no interest in interfering in the internal affairs of Atlantis. In fact, I only care about one thing."

He stretched out a finger and said to Vico:

"In the future, after the brutal Ovax's death, if Nemo and Oum break out for the throne, will it affect the undersea kingdom and then the whole world? I don't want to see Asia rushing out of the seabed. The Atlantis soldiers set off a tide to try to submerge the land."

"You have to understand, Vico, the force you possess is something that my organization and I must take seriously."

Merlin says:

"Maybe I may think a little bit more, but there is no lack of precedents for such a thing in history. The city gate is on fire and the pond fish is affected. I have to make the necessary preparations for this."

"will not!"

Vico said to Merlin with certainty:

"I can assure you in the name of my family that what you worry about will not happen."

"Atlantis has an ancient solution to the dispute of the inheritance of the throne. In fact, the dispute of the throne will be limited to the circle of the royal family. Such things rarely affect the stability of the country, let alone Civil war broke out."

"And from the end of the first era, after the arrival of the Great Depression era, the four remaining kingdoms of Atlantis have never interfered with the civilization of the land. This is what we have been in the past, and so will we be in the future."

"Ok."

Merlin glanced at Vico and he said:

"Then I will trust you, but I will keep watching. Just as you are loyal to your king, I also need to be responsible for my civilization."

"I can understand."

Vico nodded and said to Merlin:

"We all have responsibilities."

"So if the matter of throne change and its impact are important for you and for me. I think we should deepen the sharing of information with each other."

Merlin finally showed the tail of the fox, he said to Vico:

"What do you think?"

"I think you just want to take this opportunity to put an eye in the undersea kingdom and expand your eyes to places you have never penetrated."

Vico has served as a royal attendant for decades. He is also an out-and-out old fox, and he clearly clarified Merlin's plan.

"Okay, indeed."

Merlin spread her hands and said frankly:

"But I believe you also foresee that a less peaceful time is coming. I don’t think those changes will only happen on land. Imagine that if the Undersea Kingdom needs help, you and I will prepare in advance, maybe Will be the last life-saving straw."

"You are just exaggerating a possible future."

Vico staggered his fingers, staring at Merlin, he said:

"But you are right, it is always a good thing to prepare in advance. The frequent activities of the Haigou people over the years and the private connection of the exiles all outline a disturbing future, maybe a peaceful time. There is really little left."

Vico took off a silver bracelet from his wrist and threw it to Merlin. It was a delicate instrument made of some special metal. It looked very advanced, at least more advanced than the communicators currently used by humans. many.

"Take it well, if there is really any problem, I will contact you. Or if you notice some news about the Atlantis world, you can also use it to contact me."

"OK"

Merlin made an OK gesture. When Vico turned to leave, Merlin suddenly asked:

"Finally, I have a personal question. Have you any contact with the Asgards? You are the aliens living in a world called Asgard. The prototype of the Nordic mythology."

"I know who the Asgards are, and I know where they come from, but in fact, we have no connection with them!"

Vico waved his hand without looking back. He said:

"Maybe the undersea kingdom of the first era had contact with those foreigners, but after the great fall, we never saw them again."

"The First Era and the Great Fall..."

Merlin says:

"Namo also said this. This should be the history recorded by your undersea people. It sounds like some past unknown on land. Can you lend me a few related books? Old friend Vico."

"Just be, satisfy the curiosity of a wizard."

"Do you like history books?"

Vico rode on his own seahorse. He told Merlin under the sea:

"Leave the address, I will let Arthur mail it to you."

"Speaking of Arthur..."

Merlin reached for his wand and said:

"Let the child be a little low-key recently, let him study hard, and be a decent marine biologist or a free sailor in the future."

"This job of superheroes...has no future."
