The sedatives of the demon hunter are generally used against aliens. The silver liquid contains a lot of magical materials, which has a strong and rapid effect. Even the most irritating stone trolls will soon fall into a coma after being injected.

But Bruce Banner woke up earlier than Merlin predicted, and the tube of sedative that Colson injected him took effect only less than five minutes.

In the dark interrogation room, Banner woke up leisurely. Perhaps because the sedative effect was so good, he seemed to have a good sleep. After opening his eyes, his breathing became much smoother and his face became much better.

But in front of Banner, the agent interrogator with a high hairline was gone, and was replaced by another person.

Merlin didn't bring any interrogation tools, so he leaned on the chair in front of Banner, playing with a cigarette in his hand, as if waiting for the scientist to wake up. While Banner was watching him, Merlin bounced his fingers, and the light in the dim interrogation room was turned on, and the unobtrusive light illuminated the entire room.

"do you remember me?"

Merlin glanced at Banner and asked:

"You should have seen me."

Bruce Banner curled up in the chair, and he carefully looked at Merlin's face, his gloomy eyes, his thin cheeks, his well-tight hair, his always-pursed mouth, his black windbreaker, his shirt and his little black vest lined.

After a while, Banner reached out and rubbed his forehead, and he said:

"I vaguely remember that I seemed to have a fight with you. My mind was very messed up. As soon as I recall that night, my mind hurts, just like..."

"There is a voice, right?"

Merlin looked at Banner and he whispered:

"There is a voice in your mind, maybe roaring. In short, I don't think he will have a good conversation with you. He is like a beast trapped in a cage, roaring and trying to rush out of the blockade you set up with reason...Banner, you actually know what's going on with yourself, I think you should be very clear."

Merlin knocked on the table, and he said to the scientist whose face turned a little surprised:

"You are just stubborn and unwilling to admit it. Because there is a monster hidden in your body..."

"call..."

Bruce Banner's breath became heavier, but the next moment, Merlin pinched the Kiaxi Fraction Seal, like an invisible hand stroking Banner's spirit, soothing the unforgettable irritability.

He reached out his hand, took out a cigar from his pocket and handed it to Banner, he said:

"Try this... there are some magical materials in it that can calm you down a little. Don't worry, Banner, I'm not here to indict me, I'm here to help you."

Banner did not reach out to pick it up. As an excellent scientist, he knew the threat to the body of tobacco. But Merlin waved his fingers gently, and the cigar was sent to his mouth, and then a ball of beating flames ignited, igniting the cigar for him.

As the smoke rose, Banner smelled a scent like sandalwood, which made him feel very comfortable and also relieved his tense mental instinct a little.

In the interrogation room, there were two people sitting on both sides of the interrogation table. They didn't speak and looked silent.

One was smoking a cigar quietly, while the other was watching him.

"Switch the lights off."

Banner whispered:

"He doesn't like light very much...it will stimulate him."

"But you like light, Banner."

Merlin did not turn off the lights in the interrogation room, and he told the scientist in front of him:

"You can't follow him in everything. Now you are the one who dominates this body, not him. You can act according to your own ideas and relax. Don't worry, he won't get out of control. Even if he loses control, he will not hurt the rest of the room..."

Merlin whispered to Banner:

"After all, it's not just Hulk who was once a monster here."

Banner looked at Merlin in surprise, and after a moment, he nodded.

The scientist curled up in the chair changed his position to make himself more comfortable, he said to Merlin:

"What do you want to talk about?"

"I'll tell you something before I start."

Merlin pushed his glasses and said to the scientist in front of him:

"Hulk's rage did not cause any casualties, and even the people in the laboratory escaped. Your girlfriend Betty, your future father-in-law General Thaddeus, is now in this base, and no one hurts them, but I must wait until the storm of this matter has subsided before I can release them."

"That's good...that's good."

The concern in Banner's eyes suddenly dissipated a little. He looked at Merlin and said seriously:

"Since I woke up, there were many chaotic memories in my mind, as if I had lost control of my body, I could vaguely remember those, in the ruins, Hulk... He was roaring, fighting with others, as if the head was only in the legendary demon. Hulk was angry, he could not suppress the demon, he became more and more angry, as if he was out of control."

"I was like being thrown into a tornado, my consciousness was pulled, that feeling... It's hard to describe, I tried to manipulate him and comfort him, but it was useless. Hulk noticed the danger, he didn't want to listen to me, and he couldn't understand... He was like, just born, he..."

"Don't hurry, just say it slowly."

Merlin took out two cups and made some spring water with magic. He handed a cup to Banner, and he said gently:

"I can understand how you feel, believe me, I am a wizard, and I can understand all the things that science is difficult to explain."

"wizard?"

Banner took the cup, his throat was indeed a little thirsty, he poured the water from the cup into his throat, the sweet spring water tasted great, he pursed his lips, put the cup back on the table, and said to Merlin:

"I have read some more perverse papers before. Some of my friends who have made great achievements in the field of science also believe that magic really exists, but this is my first time getting involved with it. Does magic really exist?"

"Of course, it exists, and it's as real as science."

Merlin looked at Banner, he didn't say anything, but his voice rang in Banner's mind. He stretched out his fingers, and the gathered magic power beating in his palm, quickly forming a burning rose, and then turned into a flying halo in the splash of Mars, constantly rotating around Banner.

The scientist reached out and touched the fire that was suspended in front of him. The flame was burning, but it was not hot and gentle, as if it was given another form of existence.

This is completely inconsistent with the principles of science, but it is magical.

“It’s amazing.”

Banner watched the flames cover his palms like water, his always gentle eyes shining with the light of exploration, and he said to Merlin:

"Did you also use this power to suppress Hulk?"

"Well, you can understand it this way, although the actual situation is more complicated than you think."

Merlin shrugged, and he said:

"Okay, we'll discuss magic later, let's continue talking about Hulk. Dr. Banner, I know you have profound attainments in psychology. What do you think the birth of Hulk means to you?"

Merlin's question silenced Banner for a few seconds. He smoked a cigar, his eyes full of thought, and he said to Merlin:

"That should be...another personality."

"My childhood was not so happy. I had suffered abuse. In short, I knew that there was a part of the darkness in my personality, which was derived from childhood pain and self-protection consciousness. But my mental state was very healthy, and I was also a psychologist. I could judge my situation myself."

Banner looked at Merlin's eyes and said very calmly:

"Especially after meeting Betty, my girlfriend is also a talented researcher, and we regularly advise each other. But Hulk, Hulk's birth was a real accident."

"After being accidentally trapped into the experimental compartment, I was frightened after seeing the gamma ray generator start."

Banner, encouraged by Merlin, began to recall the night again, his fists clenched, and he took a deep sip of the cigar, he said:

"That thing, including the entire intensive test, was designed by me personally. I know more than anyone else what kind of results will happen after the instrument is accidentally activated. As I said to the agent with a high hairline before, death...the fear of death sieges the city and the earth in my heart."

"I can't stop the spread of that fear, I yelled, I remember clearly that I was almost broken...especially after seeing Betty and the others leave, I felt like I was abandoned."

"Maybe it was that fear that awakened the hidden personality..."

Banner's body began to tremble, he said:

"I was very scared, as if I was back when I was a child. I was extremely eager to have a strong person that could be supported by me, but no... no, I could only imagine a strong enough self myself. Maybe, maybe when I am strong enough, those hurts, scoldings, and whipping will leave me."

"Hulk?"

Merlin said:

"You call yourself Hulk? Why?"

"I have no idea..."

Banner shook his head irritably, and he said:

"I don't know that before that night, that personality had been sleeping deep in my spirit. I had enough ability to suppress him. My wisdom was strong enough. I could rely on wisdom to protect myself, but I was too scared, so he appeared again and he tried to protect me."

"At the moment those lights, those green lights, scorching lights that melted the body appeared, my despair reached its peak."

Banner widened his eyes and his pupils began to dilate.

"Banner's emotions began to become unstable. Merlin and Hulk were awakened. He was fighting with Banner for control of his body!"

Icarus' warning sounded in Merlin's ears, but Merlin didn't care.

He reached out and grabbed the cold ice key in his pocket, and he said to Bruce Banner, who was on the verge of empty eyes:

"Continue, Banner, I'm listening. Say all the things you hide, you don't need to live in fear. I'm here, I will protect you, say... Keep talking!"

"I'm scared, you know? Mr. Merlin, I'm helpless in asking for any help, like a drowning man trying to seize every opportunity that might survive."

Banner's clenched fists made a crackling sound, and he said to Merlin in a fierce tone:

"Those lights, those gamma-rays shine on me, and I know I'll die the next moment... but I can't die, I can't... I still have a lot of things I haven't done, I still have Betty... I can't die, I want to live."

"So, Hulk's birth is not an accident..."

Merlin looked at Banner's pupils whose eyes had changed, and he whispered:

"You woke him up?"
