Walking in the darkness requires courage.
After just encountering a crisis, everyone in the dark was filled with panic, sensitivity and fear.
In these tunnels that were completely sealed at both ends, the warmth of the sun could not reach this place, where darkness was controlling everything.
But Merlin walked in the darkness, and the shadows that covered him flowed on his body, even giving him a sense of peace of mind than the sun, as if he was returning to his own home.
There was no obstacle in front of him. Even without lights, he could still clearly see the scene in the darkness.
Perhaps because of the suppression of vision in the darkness, Merlin felt his hearing and perception become more sensitive.
He could hear the whispers of women in the crowd, the children's suppressed crying, the breathing of men busy looking for a way out in the dim darkness, and even when his fingers touched the surface of the cold tunnel, the subtle splits that occurred inside the rock, the rock structures that had become no longer stable due to the impact.
He moved forward like a shadow in the crowd, without touching anyone, and he was careful not to expose his abnormality.
But in fact, he is adapting to the darkness at an alarming speed.
He mixed in the crowd, and without anyone noticing, Merlin grabbed the edge of the overturned carriage and jumped into the thicker darkness. He walked along the rails covered with debris, and soon he left the crowd where they gathered.
"Bang, bang, bang."
And just as he was deep into the darkness, he heard the sound of the squeezing and deformed carriage in front of him.
It was a very rhythmic knock, but it was very faint.
That should be the passenger trapped in the carriage asking for helpless help.
Meilin looked around and pulled the brim of the cowboy hat on his head down again. Just like the Phantom Mok, he used the brim to block most of his face, and covered it with sunglasses.
In this darkness, almost no one can see him, let alone recognize him.
With his keen senses, Merlin quickly determined the location where the tapping sound came. He lowered his lower body and climbed into the corner that was piled up on the stone wall along the gap between the collisions of the two cars. He put his hand on the car, curled up his fingers, and gently pried it on the car wall, as if he was responding to the knocking sound.
The sound of the knock was very low, but for the trapped passengers, it was like a heavenly call.
The next second, the knocking sound became rapid, and there was a very tender, pointed, child-like voice that sounded in the darkness.
Despite his efforts to suppress it, Merlin could still hear a trace of unconcealed fear and helplessness from that voice.
"Is anyone? Is anyone outside? Save us! My mother fainted and I was caught. Please, save us!"
"I'm here, don't be afraid."
Merlin replied deliberately with a thick voice. He moved his hands and feet, allowing himself to move forward a few steps in the crack, then raised his head and saw a little girl with messy hair and some black and gray on her face from the broken window.
She was sitting at the bottom of the carriage, looking around there.
Her arm was clamped into the collapsed box, but judging from her expression, she should not be injured. At the little girl's feet, there was a lady who fainted. That should be her mother.
Compared to her lucky daughter, this lady was not very lucky. She might have been hit by a fallen box, causing her coma, but there was not much blood on the ground.
This also made Merlin a little relieved.
"child."
Merlin continued to shout in a rough voice:
"Just stay there, don't move, I'll go find tools."
The sound of Merlin sounded again made the little girl suddenly raise her head. But she did not have Merlin's dark vision. She could only see the darkness in front of her, as if she was talking to a ghost, which really made the little girl feel scared.
"Sir? Where are you? I can't see you."
She said this on purpose and then shrank her body backwards.
This action made the suitcase piled up beside her shake, causing the little girl to scream and scared Merlin. If the heavy boxes collapsed, the little girl would definitely be injured.
"Don't move!"
Merlin's tone became gentler:
"If I can see you, just keep this move. Don't move. I will come back to save you soon, and your mother. Little girl, trust me, okay?"
After saying that, Meilin took a few steps back, lowered his body again, and crawled out of the twisted sunken passage of the carriage.
Meilin deliberately made some noises to make the sensitive little girl feel more at ease.
However, after Merlin left, the little girl trapped in the corner shrank her head in fear again. She looked down at her unconscious mother. She sniffed and said to her mother in a crying voice, as if she was also saying to herself:
"Don't be afraid, mom, someone is here to save us."
"Sounds like a big brother, he will definitely be back, right?"
"We will definitely be saved."
But the unconscious mother went to the scene and failed to respond to her, which made the tears in the little girl's eyes flow down, but she tried hard to hold it back.
She kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.
In the darkness, the 7-year-old girl maintained her arms bound by boxes. She was very tired, but she knew that she could not move around.
The danger hasn't passed yet.
After seeing hope, it is very difficult to wait. The little girl raised her head every 10 seconds on average, and her ears were pricked up like a little rabbit. She tried to hear even a slight sound in the dark, but Merlin seemed to have completely disappeared.
1 minute, 2 minutes, soon, 5 minutes passed.
The little girl's heart sank little by little, and all kinds of nonsensical guesses began to echo in her mind.
Like most other people trapped in the dark, she began to motivate herself and began to scare herself.
The little girl's inner fear became increasingly strong, but just before she was crushed by her own fantasy, the sudden sound of steel collision suddenly woke her up from her own fantasy.
The little girl was startled. She raised her head and saw a twisted steel stick inserted into the place where the two cars collided and twisted. Meilin held the stick in one hand and used the power to feed her breasts.
He could not shake the two huddles of the car, nor could he separate them easily like the heroes in the comics, but he could use the simplest lever principle to pry open the completely sealed door bit by bit.
"Bang"
The pried open car door hit the darkness and made a loud noise. Meilin walked into the car shortly and quickly walked to the little girl and her mother. He stretched out his hand and pushed the boxes pressing the little girl's arms one by one.
In the darkness, he said gentlely to the little girl who seemed to be frightened:
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Meilin reached out to wipe the sweat from her forehead. He moved the last box away, allowing the trapped little girl to be free. The next moment, the silent little girl opened her hands and hugged Meilin's legs suddenly.
Merlin was stunned for a moment.
He could feel the little girl's body trembling, and she must have been frightened.
She shouldn't have experienced all this, and the source of it was him.
Merlin breathed a sigh of relief, he tried to expel these negative emotions. He stretched out his hand and touched the little girl's messy hair. He said to the little girl:
"Let me go first, I want to carry your mother out and follow me, be careful, okay?"
The little girl obediently let go of her hand. She looked at Meilin and leaned down and picked up her unconscious mother. She stretched out her hand, grabbed the corner of Meilin's clothes, and walked in this twisted and dark-covered place.
After being rescued, the girl finally felt a little relieved.
She doesn't need to be afraid anymore.
When Merlin walked out of the car, a light shone in the darkness behind the tunnel. Obviously, this was the sound caused by Merlin when she pried the car door and alarmed others.
Meilin heard clear footsteps, and at least 7 people were coming, including men and women.
Merlin placed the unconscious lady on the ground. He squatted down and touched the head of the sensible little girl. He said to the little girl:
"You stay here, and there will be uncles and aunts coming to help you soon. Also, don't tell others, you've seen me, okay?"
The little girl's eyes blinked in the darkness. Merlin could see that they were beautiful brown eyes, and she also had long fluffy and golden hair, like a cute doll.
When facing Merlin's request, the little girl tilted her head, as if thinking, and she asked:
"Why?"
"Just like I saved you just now, I'm going to help other people now. But I don't like working with other people, I prefer to do things by myself."
"Anyway, it's time to say goodbye, brave little girl."
Meilin stood up, he waved goodbye to the little girl, turned around and walked towards the darkness further ahead, and the little girl shouted behind him:
"What's your name?"
“Merlin.”
A low voice came from afar, indicating that Merlin was moving away quickly.
"Okay! I promise you, Merlin."
There was no echo in the darkness, nor was there any answer.
Merlin had already penetrated into the darkness and he had left.
After nearly 15 minutes in the darkness, Merlin arrived at the end of the train, and several carriages carrying carriages overturned here. The carriage itself, together with the heavy cargo, blocked the tunnel exit, and some rocks mixed in, making it extremely difficult to climb the obstacles in front of you.
Merlin could hear in another direction, some men were discussing ways to open the barrier.
But as the old man said, those methods take time, and in the present situation, if people cannot see hope, under the darkness, people can easily do things that hurt themselves and others.
Merlin knew that he had the ability to open up the heavy obstacles in front of him, just like he did in a media store in Chicago.
But the problem is that he has no idea how he should use the dark dangerous power.
However, he had some speculations in his heart.
Combined with his experience at the Chicago Media Store, Merlin speculated that the dark forces flowing in his body would only proactively explode when they encountered strong external threats and eliminate all threats around him.
It's like the weird demon bell taken out by an old Chicago liar.
And in the outbreak last night, Merlin did not completely lose his will in the posture of transforming into a storm of smoke. He could even clearly remember that his consciousness was integrated into the perception of the storm like black smoke, and that posture of transforming into the wind and floating.
He could feel that the power in his body was filled with darkness and was extremely dangerous, but it did not have instinctive malice. It was most likely that it was because it was forcibly disconnected from the subject and was trapped in Merlin's body for too short, so it failed to produce its own consciousness.
So in theory, Merlin can use it freely, as long as Merlin finds a way.
"All right."
Merlin moved her shoulders and arms, as if she was warming up.
In the darkness, he took a deep breath, stretched out his left hand, pressed against the heavy obstacle in front of him. He tried hard to calm his will down. After a moment, he said:
"come out!"
However, this call was of no use except for some echoes.
The dark powers stayed in his body without a slight change, as if he was disdainful of Merlin.
"Hell."
The young man cursed inwardly, he changed his posture and shouted again, but he still did not receive a response. After a few minutes, because of the continuous shouting, he attracted the attention of the men on the other side. Merlin could hear the noisy footsteps approaching.
There is not much time left.
Merlin gritted his teeth, lowered his head and searched on the ground. After a few seconds, he picked up a broken bottle.
He stared at the sharp glass pieces in his hand, and he felt that he must have been crazy. It must be the old man who just gave him some ecstasy soup to give him such a crazy idea.
But now, like a coward or leave here and wait for bad things to happen.
Or
Just use extreme methods and try again.
In the darkness, Merlin held the broken glass in his hands, and in the darkness, he whispered:
"Either it works or just die as a human."
"Hear? No matter what you are!"
Merlin's tone became stubborn, as if he was talking to an invisible person. He gritted his teeth and said:
"I won't let you turn me into a monster!"
The next moment, Merlin's hands suddenly curled inward, and the sharp glass slag stabbed into his heart like a dagger.
Without a stop, it is not like making a false act, and using all your strength.
Just as the sharp broken glass pierced Merlin's skin, the moment Merlin felt the pain, the silent force in his body revived in the dark again.
"Buzz"
In less than a second, Merlin turned into darkness, mixed with the Martian wind. In the roar, the dark wind hit the mountain-like obstacle in front of him.
It was like a giant's fist, hammering hard on the pile of steel and goods.
Merlin twisted his vague consciousness and felt like a flame burning out everything he touched.
This power is indeed full of aggressiveness. The moment it touched the obstacles, a loud explosion sounded in the tunnel, scaring everyone in the darkness.
Then there was a second loud bang and a third loud bang.
The carriage made of steel, heavy sleepers, used to feed the factory forged iron ingots, beautiful and heavy glass.
No matter what it is, it is impacted, melted, and ignited.
After three brutal impacts, Meilin, who had returned to the human body, leaned weakly on the ground of the tunnel. In front of him, a ray of sunrise that was born at dawn shone on him like a sharp sword piercing through the darkness.
Behind him was an obstacle that was blatantly broken from the center, which was more than 10 meters thick. It was like a circular gap was opened again.
“Haha, did it”
Merlin felt pain all over his body, not only because of the soreness, but also the strange stinging pain caused by the sunlight on his face. He was very weak and had no strength in his body, as if all his energy had been hollowed out.
But he laughed hard and satisfied.
He caused a disaster.
He ended the disaster and he atoneed his sins.
"Wow!"
A voice sounded behind Merlin. The weak young man turned around and saw the little girl he had saved just now, looking at him in amazement, as if he was looking at a real monster, like a real hero.
Judging from her wide-open eyes, this little girl must have witnessed the scene just now.
And in the darkness behind her, Merlin heard the footsteps of many people, which were the sound of running and the instinct of human beings toward light.
The weak Merlin got up with difficulty. He picked up his cowboy hat from his feet and then pressed it on his head. He raised his fingers and placed them beside his mouth. Under the sunlight, he made a ban on the little girl behind him.
Before those who were saved by him rushed into the light, Merlin had limped and left the tunnel under the care of the sun.
It's like
