34. The Samurai's End
"Swish swish swish swish"
The warm water flow kept falling from the flowers above my head, and Meilin stood in the water like a statue.
He let the running water wash away the sweat stains on his body. In the thick water vapor, Merlin was in a very calm mood.
He had made a decision, and those swaying thoughts could no longer affect him.
At least at this moment, he will no longer be influenced by other ideas.
Meilin opened his eyes and took a step forward. He reached out and wiped the mirror in front of him, which was wet with water. He looked at himself in the mirror and seemed to have become a little unfamiliar.
He has indeed experienced many things, and growth and maturity are the only ones.
If the past things are not enough to make him mature, then I can only say that he has lived in vain for the past two years.
Merlin picked up the razor and began to rest on his face. After his beard was cleaned up, he took off the blade and began to organize his hair.
The short black hair fell into the water under his feet, and followed the movement of the water flow and was washed into the sewer, just like those things that had passed away, which could only be missed but could not be retained.
A few minutes later, Merlin, wrapped in a bath towel, walked out of the bathroom.
On the sofa in the room, Lingdie, who had already put on a black windbreaker, heard the sound and turned around. The powerful and fierce mercenary saw his employer and his new image.
Outside the bath towel, although the muscles on Merlin's shoulders and chest were not exaggerated, the body transformation brought by the super soldier serum still made him look a bit of a strange bodybuilding.
A slender body, paired with the slightly weird eyes, and a neat and energetic short hair, finally the gloomy temperament brought by the dark experience.
These combinations make the real Merlin feel a little stunning at the first glance.
A trace of surprise and admiration flashed in Lingdie's eyes. She stretched out her hand, grabbed the clothes she had just bought on the sofa, and threw them to Meilin.
The latter was taken in his hand, turned his back and began to wear clothes.
He did not deliberately avoid the spirit butterfly. That powerful mercenary with great experience seemed to care about these red tape.
Lingbutterfly, who completed her combat outfit, wore combat arm guard gloves with both hands and a samurai knife on her back, which was easy to move, but she always felt a bit exposed black leather jacket, and the wide windbreaker covered her body, accompanied by the fluttering of purple hair in her black hair, which made her look unexpectedly free and easy.
She held her arms, looked at Merlin, and said in a business tone:
"I sensed the hiding place of the Winter Warrior. He should be entangling with the Female Warrior with a spear. That Female Warrior should not be the opponent of the Winter Warrior. But what I want to warn you is Merlin, I will not fight you because you don't have the money to hire me. I will only rescue you again when you are about to be beaten to death. Do you understand?"
"Um."
Merlin nodded, put her gray shirt on her body, and asked while tying the buttons:
"Actually, I'm a little curious. How much does it cost to hire an excellent soldier like you?"
"It depends on what you need me to do."
When talking about money, Lingdie's cold eyes immediately became lively. She introduced to Meilin with all her knowledge:
"I am the most powerful mercenary, so the appearance fee is relatively high. For ordinary security tasks, if they deal with ordinary bandits, they will cost 100,000 US dollars."
"If you are dealing with difficult enemies, militarized groups, or some mutants like me, then it's 200,000."
"Rescue missions like today are also divided into grades, with prices ranging from 300,000 to 2 million."
"The end is an assassination mission. I need to take risks in this type of mission, so the price is higher. Of course, you can also hire me to do some other things."
Lingdie put her left hand on her hips and stroked her hair with her right hand. She said in a relaxed tone:
"In addition to mercenaries, I also serve as a graphic model. If I ask me to go to the runway, do advertising, etc., it will be cheaper. If I ask me to endorse certain products, I can sign a contract or pay in installments."
"What if I asked you to come out to drink?"
Meilin tied the last button, and he turned around and looked at Lingdie with a smile in his eyes:
"What if you want to make you my friend?"
"Oh, this price is even higher, Little Merlin."
Lingdie swayed her figure and walked to Meilin. She stretched out her fingers slightly frivolously, and pointed at Meilin's nose. She said:
"Ten thousand a day, so when you have money, let's be friends again."
"Well, I'll contact you then."
Meilin took a step back and avoided Lingbutterfly's fingers.
He picked up a pair of black leather gloves from the side. He looked at the spirit butterfly and asked in surprise:
"Why buy this?"
The mercenary snorted, turned around, waved his hand, and said indifferently:
"This is a little quirk of mine. Although I'm doing a life-long business, I don't really like it, so I'm going to get my hands dirty."
"Let's go, I'll take you to find the Winter Soldier."
She whispered:
"I want to advise you, maybe you feel that you have a great advantage now, you feel that you are fearless after becoming strong, but that's just an illusion. I heard that I don't know what abilities you have obtained and what trump card you have, but in the face of an assassin like the Winter Warrior, you'd better prepare in advance."
"I know."
Merlin wore black gloves and buckled a baseball cap on his head, he said:
"Someone has told me that any miracle takes time. I will be patient enough."
"No, I mean"
Lingdie looked back at him and said in a weird tone:
"Mr. 5 million, if you have any valuable property, it is best to make a will in advance. Of course, I can keep it for you."
“Free.”-
In an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Auckland, the winter warriors are hiding in the dark.
On the ground in front of him, Okna, a samurai of Wakanda, was limping with her spear, looking for traces of the winter soldiers.
The king's guard's armor was covered in blood, and of course most of it was not hers.
During the chaos last night, she almost defeated the killers led by the Winter Soldiers alone. Wakanda's unique vibrating armor made her invulnerable and could even resist small explosions head-on. Of course, the custom of not wearing a face helmet also made her suffer.
Most of the face of this female leopard was burned by flames, which must have hurt a lot.
When Agent Frey's helicopter crashed, although Orkna avoided the explosion, her left leg was hit by the flying wreckage. Although Vibrant Jin was protecting her, Vibrant Jin, which had not been specially treated, was still unable to absorb all the kinetic energy well.
The overnight tracking made her very tired, but she could still fight, and the final culprit was not punished, so she had to continue fighting.
This is the dignity of being a servant of the Black Panther. In her country, the king is the most powerful warrior and the protector of all people. He is respected as the Black Panther. Only the most brave warrior is qualified to follow the invincible Black Panther.
If you cannot complete the task given by the Black Panther, it will defile the glory of the warrior.
This is something that Okna, who has a stubborn and arrogant personality, cannot bear.
The powerful young lady endured the stinging pain on her cheeks. She looked at the abandoned factory in front of her. She followed the Winter Soldiers all the way here, and this was the last battlefield.
"come out!"
Orkna screamed:
"Don't hide like a mouse!"
"boom"
Orkna waved his spear and a blue energy arrow hit the box in front of him, and the wood chips flew.
"Bang"
Something was thrown out of the darkness and was falling at Orkna's feet. It was a strange bomb with a latch pulled apart, and was emitting a dangerous orange-yellow light at the feet of the female warrior.
"boom"
The next moment, the dazzling orange flames surged wildly in all directions like the light of the sun. But outside Orkna's body, a layer of energy shield like sound waves helped her block the rapid and dangerous explosion. She stood in the orange flame without any damage.
The female warrior had a silver-gray metal bead in her palm. It was the crystallization of Wakanda's superb technology and self-defense equipment with various functions. The energy shield it spread completely absorbed the impact and high temperature brought by the orange flame in front of her.
During the chaos last night, Orkna had used 2 such mechanical beads, and with this one, Orkna should have 3 in his hand.
This is also her confidence in daring to pursue the Winter Soldier alone.
The Wakanda warriors are not stupid. They are the best hunters. They will always be ready before chasing them.
But what happened to Okna's mistake was that the bombs thrown by the Winter Soldier were not ordinary bombs. If she had seen how the Winter Soldier used this bomb to deal with Merlin, she would definitely run away as soon as possible instead of standing there.
"boom"
After the orange explosion flame expanded to the limit of 10 meters, another strange explosion sounded at the core of the flame. A more strange and more powerful attraction teared Okna's body and pulled her towards the core of the explosion.
Everything that was torn to pieces by the explosion on the surrounding ground, the twisted metal strips and dangerous metal breaks, all hit Orkna's body from all directions under the secondary outbreak of this gravitational bomb like a storm.
"Ding Ding Ding Ding"
The metal hit her vibrating armor, which kept moving forward, and some tiny broken stubble streaked across her neck and cheeks, making the female warrior dripping blood.
"Bang"
Okna raised her spear with both hands and stabbed her hard into the ground, using the spear as a fulcrum, trying to maintain her fighting posture.
"Clang"
The gravitational bomb gathered everything within 10 meters around it into a metal ball twisted by debris, and smashed it to the ground with a clang.
The weird explosion finally stopped.
Before the female warrior in Wakanda could take a breath, a figure rushed out of the darkness ahead.
The silent and fierce winter soldier waved his black fighting knife in his left hand, and the moment Orkna pulled out his spear, he rushed to the side of the samurai. The sharp alloy battle knife extended the gap in the vibrating armor and penetrated the samurai's waist fiercely.
After fast charging, his mechanical right arm hit Orkna's chest in a posture that destroyed everything.
"puff"
The female warrior who was raided squirted out a mouthful of blood, and her whole body was blown back by the blow, and smashed hard on the ground. The winter soldiers who were raiding grabbed the vibrating gold spear on the ground and rushed towards Orkna in a fierce manner.
"Swish"
The vibrator spear aimed at the head of the female warrior and stabbed it. Another metal bead in Orkna's hand stretched out the sound wave shield and blocked the first attack of the Winter Soldier, but the second attack of the super killer broke the shield.
The female warrior tried hard to deflect her body and avoided the spear's straight stab. However, when the Winter Soldier turned his wrist, the spear roared, and the neck was knocked off. Her neck was easily torn open by the sharp spear tip.
Blood, blood gushed out.
In this final confrontation between the Female and the Winter Warrior, Orkna lost.
The price of losing is death
The winter soldier raised his left foot and kicked the female warrior in the chest, fixing her to the ground.
Orkna was struggling, but the injury to her neck was almost deadly, and her struggle was getting weaker and weaker. She could only watch the spear in the hands of the Winter Soldier and stabbed towards her eyes.
"I'm sorry, my Majesty, I've put you in shame."
Orkna is powerless to turn things around.
"Bang"
Just when the female warrior was completely desperate, just when the sharp vibrating gold spear was about to fall, and when the murderous intent in the eyes of the winter soldiers reached their limit, a sudden dark storm rolled in the air like a heavy punch, like a train, hitting the body of the winter soldiers who were about to commit murder.
The impact was extremely strong, and the entire winter soldier was knocked away. The spear in his hand fell to the ground, making a heavy sound.
The dark storm roared, raising the caught winter warrior into the air. Just like the night he and Merlin first met, the storm like rolling black smoke mixed with Mars wrapped the winter warrior.
Seizing the opportunity, Merlin, who launched a fatal blow, had no intention of keeping his hand at all. He frantically poured his strength towards the enemy in front of him. After his body was strengthened by serum, he could already take the initiative to transform into black fog.
And today, he will completely bury the cold and dangerous killer in front of him in this rolling black smoke!
For those lives that died because of him, for those disasters caused by greed, for those countless painful nights that were difficult to sleep in the past.
"ah!"
The black smoke, which was spinning like a knife, tore all the winter soldiers' clothes and armor, and pieces of flesh were torn off, just like an invisible monster was biting his body.
In the black smoke, Merlin's consciousness stared at the killer in front of him. The dark power in his body was boiling, like flowing magma.
The powerful magic explosion of the black mist incarnation!
"Tear"
The moment the magic rolled to the boiling moment, a dazzling blue spark suddenly burst out from the right arm of the Winter Warrior's mechanical right arm. The super electrodes placed in it began to discharge quickly. The blue sparks rushed in the black smoke, just like a blue lightning flashing out of the black smoke.
"Bang"
The black fog that suffered a strong electric shock suddenly dissipated, throwing the winter soldiers out. When flipping in the air, the winter soldiers who were covered in blood gritted their teeth and waved their hands. An orange-emitting bomb was thrown into the sky and into the black fog rolling in the air.
He didn't give up! He was still trying to fight back!
But before the bomb exploded, Merlin's black fog dissipated rapidly and extremely flexibly. After a moment, it landed on the ground, almost perfectly avoiding the 10-meter range of the gravity bomb exploded.
He has suffered a loss once, and the same trick will not take effect on him again.
"boom"
As the orange flames above my head exploded, Meilin shook his hand, causing the strong sense of paralysis to fade away, and a trace of regret appeared in his pupils like burning ashes in his eyes.
The last blow of the magic explosion was terminated by the jumping strong current.
It seems that after the last encounter, the organization behind the Winter Soldier added something new to his mechanical arm. The brief discharge just now was enough to kill ordinary people in an instant, and that thing might be used to deal with him.
In front of Merlin, the extremely miserable winter soldier climbed up from the ground. Apart from his mechanical right arm, there was almost no good meat on his body, like a bloody monster.
Under the blood-stained hair, Dongbing's gray eyes stared at Meilin in front of him. He seemed to feel the pain, and it seemed that he had suppressed the pain with his will.
His hands were moving, and two black fighting knives appeared in his hands.
Merlin also spread his gloved hands outward, and the flesh and blood on his arms turned into rolling black smoke.
The next moment, the two men launched a charge almost at the same time.
No dialogue, no scolding, no escape.
They're here
Chapter completed!
