55. The Secret of the Red Tank

Logically speaking, swearing is actually a very technical job.

In order to avoid embarrassing situations, when cursing, you must name someone and accurately reach someone, otherwise it will easily cause misunderstandings.

A dozen Georges cursed that George was a bastard who should go to hell, so maybe a dozen Georges would join forces to teach you a lesson... And now, the same situation happened in front of Merlin.

Merlin knew very well that the Red Tank mentioned Riven should be referring to the magic-shaped girl Riven.

But the problem is that at this time, there was a dangerous little girl named Riven in Xavier Academy. And Riven didn't like those guys who didn't have tutors and curse people casually.

"He's not talking about you."

As the black fog rolled, Merlin appeared beside Riven. He reached out and placed his hand on Riven's shoulder and said to his sister:

"He's very dangerous. Don't get involved in this matter. Go and take Lorna home...I'll stay here."

As soon as Merlin finished speaking, a rolling iron bar roared from behind him and stabbed towards the Red Tank. The magnetically controlled iron bar flew quickly and accurately, like a shooting arrow, hitting the Red Tank's chest accurately.

"Clang"

A sound of steel collision sounded on the college grass. The sharp iron bar could not hurt the red tank at all. It hit the body of the red tank and splashed the jumping sparks.

Lorna, who was controlling the iron bars behind her, saw that the attack did not work, so she simply separated her five fingers. The solid iron bar twisted rapidly, like a chain, tied the red tank's arms tightly.

"Don't bully Riven!"

Lorna stood by the window on the second floor of the castle, waving her fists and shouting at the Red Tank.

This girl probably didn't realize what was going on. When she saw Riven rushing out, she instinctively launched an attack.

"Look."

The Red Tank didn't care about the child's attack. He moved his arms at will, and the tied iron bar was easily broken away, like a chain made of plasticine, without any restraint.

He threw the twisted iron bar aside, and said to Professor Charles, who looked cold-faced:

"Charles, look, even a little girl is more determined than you. Come on, let's fight and end the grudges, and you can also take your students together."

While moving the exaggerated muscles on his body, he glanced at Meilin, then moved his fists. A trace of hideousness flashed in his eyes under the stone helmet. He said:

"Call me any helper and call the old guy who is always inseparable from you, and I'm happy to accompany you!"

“Kain…”

The professor lowered his head and said:

"Things happened back then were just an accident."

"I won't mention whether it was an accident or not."

The red tank waved, he said:

"Just call me Kain Charles, where is your tutor? Did mom and dad teach you that back then?"

The professor was silent.

Meilin, who was standing aside, picked Meilin. His eyes moved back and forth between the red tank like a giant and the silent professor, and a strange smile appeared on Meilin's face.

He probably guessed the relationship between them...

Tsk, this is really amazing.

But after all, the two sides are now in a cooperative relationship, so it is not good to let Hong Tank continue to reveal Professor's old background.

Merlin coughed lightly and said to the Red Tank:

"If you want to fight, we'd better change places... You're just targeting Professor Charles, the rest of the people are innocent, especially, there are kids here."

"Children are the most annoying."

The red tank waved his hand and said carelessly:

"Children will not hide the evil in their hearts. They will always do something that is incomprehensible. I'm right, Charles? I still remember when I was 7 years old, you broke your mother's makeup box and then blamed me... You pretended to be pitiful and avoided punishment, and what about me? I was rushed outside the house and reflected on it for hours..."

Red Tank glanced at the professor's expression and laughed:

"But this strange guy is right. I really have to give you some face. After all, you are also a big shot now. After all, you have always been an excellent heir to the Xavier family, which is different from me, a vicious thug."

"Charles, I will come to you again in a month, and I hope you will be ready by then."

"Okay, it's time for me to go, I'm not welcome here."

After saying that, the Red Tank turned around without hesitation. After crossing the collapsed wall, he turned around and waved to Professor Charles maliciously, saying:

"See you in a month, my dear..."

"younger brother."

———————————————

"You let him go!"

More than ten minutes later, on the way home, Ruiwen, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, said to Meilin with dissatisfaction:

"We two joined forces, plus those X-Men, we can keep him... That guy has a bit of a discomfort on me. He is not an ordinary mutant. He is like the previous Asazo, he is a demon mutant."

"What else do you want me to do? Raven."

Merlin said to Raven while waving the steering wheel:

"Fighting with Red Tank at Xavier Academy in front of so many kids? You don't know the guy's style, but I know that as long as he's involved in the battle, all the buildings near the battlefield will be destroyed."

"And it's not just that you noticed the weirdness on the Red Tank, I saw it too."

Merlin pushed his glasses and said:

"We cannot act so rashly against such a secret guy. We have to find out his secret first and then set up a targeted combat plan."

"He's a very tricky guy, and you also see the iron bars that Lorna threw out are completely immune."

Merlin said:

"Actually, I doubt that he is likely to be immune to a lot of magic as well. In your current state, it will be very difficult to fight."

"So I'm going to summon a demon to come."

Riven hugged her arms and said to Merlin:

"I have to improve my strength quickly, and you have also seen that all kinds of strange guys have appeared recently, which makes me a little uneasy."

"Don't be afraid, Raven."

Lorna, who was sitting on the side, suddenly woke up. The green-haired girl grabbed Riven's hand. She patted her chest with confidence and said to Riven:

"Lorna will protect you!"

"You can't even protect yourself."

Ruiwen rolled her eyes and said to the little tail beside her:

"Don't be so impulsive when doing things. It will cause a lot of trouble if you irritate a guy like the Red Tank."

"Yes, you have to learn to control it."

Merlin looked at Lorna from the reversing mirror and said:

"I also heard that you bullied other kids in school?"

"No!"

Lorna grimaced at Merlin, she said:

"I didn't bully them, they were all my friends, except John, I hate John, who bullied Riven."

"All right."

Merlin turned the car to the other side of the road and said to the two girls:

"I'll send you to Daisy first, and I'll pick up Matt, your Aunt May, and little Peter, and we'll have dinner at home tonight."

"Okay, OK."

Lorna nodded like pounding garlic, she said:

"I haven't played with Daisy for a long time, and Ava... Merlin, would you please take Ava over tonight?"

"OK."

Merlin said:

"Anyway, I don't know if Ava has time... Dr. Bill said that Ava's situation has worsened recently, which is really worrying."

That night, after another lively supper, Merlin sent Mei, Ben, and Little Peter home. Today, Ava, Daisy was going to live with Riven and Lorna, and Matt rested early.

After returning home and checking the children's situation, Merlin used the key to come to the mysterious house.

Xuanlan greeted him at the door as always.

"You should have a meal with us just now, Lan."

Meilin said to Xuanlan:

"You can leave the house, too, don't you?"

"I thank you for your kindness, Master Merlin."

Xuanlan showed a fleeting smile on her face, and she said to Meilin seriously:

"But I shouldn't intervene in the life of ordinary people. Although I am weak, I am also a 'spirit'. If I contact me too much, ordinary people will have some bad signs. But maybe next time, you can hold a banquet in the mysterious house, where my power will be controlled."

"Okay, let's talk about it next time."

Merlin breathed a sigh of relief, and he walked towards the fireplace in the hall, on the wooden shelf in front of the fireplace, the parchment of the book of the Dark God was placed on it, like a craft.

Merlin stood in front of the parchment. This time, before he could write down the question, a line of text appeared on the parchment.

"Welcome back, Merlin, have you been in trouble that you can't solve again?"

"It's not my trouble."

Merlin replied:

"But I do need to know some information... Let's skip those boring programs, what do you need me to do?"

“It depends on what you want to know.”

A sentence appeared on the parchment:

"You understand the rules. The greater the value, the more you pay."

"All right."

Merlin pushed his glasses and said:

"What's the secret of the Red Tank?"

"Oh, a good question!"

A line of words appeared on the parchment:

"Are you sure you want to know?"

"Um."

Merlin nodded, and the next second, a line of blood-red words appeared on the parchment, like a warning:

"This involves an existence that is stronger than the Three Palace Demons... Finally, I'll ask, do you know if you want to know?"

“…”

Merlin felt a little ache in his head.

What happened these days?

When he took over Beowulf, he met the ancient evil god Nal who was unknown. Now he met the Red Tank and another person who was stronger than the Third Palace. Is his destiny finally coming to his climax?

"Tell me."

After a moment of thinking, Merlin said:

"I want to know."

"You're so lonely."

Characters on parchment jump out one by one:

"Retrieve Elsa Bloodstone back and confess your feelings to her. Or have a deep communication with Zatanna Zatala... or go to the South Galaxy to find Carol Danvers."

"If you're in trouble, go to Josie now, Maria Hill is drinking there."

"Why are the people behind you so concerned about my private life?"

Merlin frowned and said:

“Can’t you let me do something more meaningful, like maintaining world peace or something?”

“That’s what you exist.”

A very meaningful sentence appeared on the parchment:

“Realize what 'they' want to see…”

"You mean, I have to please 'them'? Just like the monkeys in the circus?"

Merlin said expressionlessly:

"What if I don't?"

"Then you will be given up..."

After getting the parchment from Zatanna back, Merlin found that the parchment became much more active, and did not know what Zatanna did to it. It said to Merlin:

"If you lose the meaning of existence, no one pays attention to anything about you, you will be forgotten, and you will also lose the strongest assistance in your destined ups and downs."

Merlin looked at the lines until the lines gradually disappeared.

He took a deep breath and said:

"Okay, I'll do my best."

"Just try your best..."

A warning appeared on the parchment:

"You have to hurry up."

A cold magic closed loop blocked Meilin's right arm. After the contract was formed, a line of words quickly appeared in front of Meilin.

"The real name of Red Tank is Kain Marco, and he is Charles Francis Xavier's half-brother."

"He is an ordinary person, not outstanding, and his younger brother is excellent, which makes Kain very unbalanced because Charles has all the love he has from his parents and he has nothing."

"53 years ago, Kain and Charles and Riven traveled to Europe. On the way, they accidentally entered a strange forest, and in the forest they discovered the lost temple."

"Kain found a red gem in the temple. He was tempted. He ignored Charles and Riven's dissuasion. After touching the gem, he got the gaze of the gods outside the dimension, and he turned into a red tank."

"The temple collapsed, and despite Charles' desperate rescue, Kain was buried in it and did not leave until several years later with the help of the power of the gods."

"He hated Charles's death and refused to save him, and he decided to take revenge."

"However, Kain's will is not controlled by himself, a god is manipulating it... All Kain's power comes from the crimson ruby."

"Just take the crimson ruby ​​off his forehead, he will become a useless ordinary person."

"But you have to be careful, touching the crimson ruby ​​means connecting with the crimson territory... Although it is not as aggressive as the Sannoha, it is not something that makes people feel happy when it is related to it."

"As for the name of that god..."

"You can call it...the Crimson Lord."
