"Yes, it's over. It's a pity that Horvath never saw it through. What a pity for this good boy!"
...scare...
Following Dave's answer, Wu Ming felt an inexplicable feeling of horror, and the hairs on his body stood up for a moment.
The next moment, Wu Ming quickly turned around and looked at Dave, who had his back turned to him, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you?"
"What do you think?"
Dave slowly turned his head, and what he saw was a pair of weathered eyes, with a depressive look that made it hard to breathe.
The depression caused by the eyes itself is invisible, but now it is becoming tangible.
For a moment, Wu Ming felt as if he had fallen into water. There was no point of strength in his whole body, and even his own magic power began to quiet down.
"It's so strong. Just a look can block my magic power. The difference is really huge."
Wu Ming came to this conclusion instantly, then took a deep breath, looked at the man in front of him and said, "Are you back, Master Merlin?"
Unconsciously, Wu Ming adopted a respectful tone, with a hint of certainty in his question.
Dave said nothing, just looked at Wu Ming quietly.
It wasn't until Wu Ming felt it was a little unbearable under this kind of depression that he said, "Just call me Dave. Merlin is the past, and Dave is the present and future!"
Hearing this affirmative answer, Wu Ming lowered his head slightly, knowing that this was Merlin's true return.
Perhaps, The Sorcerer's Apprentice, a script written around a black and white wizard, is itself a huge scam.
Merlin died a thousand years ago and Merlin returned a thousand years later. This is probably a very big chess game.
In this chess game, whether it is Balthazar, Horvath, or even the dark wizard leader Morgana, they are all chess pieces. And Wu Ming unknowingly stepped into this chess game and became a
a crucial part.
"Why, are you scared?"
Seeing Wu Ming's silence, Dave, who had turned into Merlin, smiled and said: "No, it doesn't have to be like this at all? Logically speaking, you are the mentor of my body. Although you have some selfish intentions, you have done a good job.
.And judging from your study of the Book of Merlin, you can be regarded as a disciple of Merlin from another generation, and no one can object to this."
"It's weird if I'm not afraid, I don't want to die!"
Wu Ming complained in his heart that if the person in front of him was Dave, he would definitely not have the slightest fear. But as Merlin, the legendary mage who has been planning for thousands of years and has been seeking the present, Wu Ming cannot treat him as an equal.
This is not Wu Ming's fear of bullying, but his awe of strength.
People can be arrogant, but they must accept reality and face reality.
Even though Wu Ming firmly believes that his path will be broadened by Merlin in the future, he still needs to lower his head at this moment. Because the future does not equal the present, and qualifications do not equal strength.
"Dave, what's your power now?"
"The level of magic power has not changed, only the essence has changed."
As soon as the essential change came out, Wu Ming's eyes narrowed slightly.
Starting from the junior mage to the legendary mage, there is no qualitative change in the spell caster itself.
To a certain extent, even if he is a legendary mage, he is still an ordinary person. The only difference is that the power he mobilizes is more powerful.
The situation is different for demigod-level mages. The reason why demigods have the word "god" is because their genes or soul level have undergone essential changes. If tested by scientific means, magicians at this level are equivalent to humans and
Differences between gorillas.
"Dave, did you win?"
Just when Wu Ming was thinking about how to get along with the current Dave, Peggy, who had been hiding in a safe area, trotted up to meet him.
Perhaps it was because she saw so many different things today that Peggy, who was usually aloof from Dave, couldn't help but hugged Dave's arm.
In response to this, Dave in the past would have jumped up with joy. But now, he frowned slightly and could not see any joy at all.
"Peggy, girls need to be more steady!"
Dave, whose soul was completely awakened, gently pushed Peggy's hand away, without any change in the expression on his face.
Seeing this scene, Wu Ming was 100% sure that it was Merlin who replaced Dave, rather than Dave merging with Merlin. Otherwise, even if Dave's soul was only slightly accepted, he would not be so indifferent to Peggy.
.
Therefore, the man in front of him, whose name is also Dave, even has all of Dave's memories. But he has absolutely nothing to do with Dave. It is even possible that Merlin did not accept Dave's emotions at all when they fused, but just like
Just like watching a movie, I reviewed it from the perspective of a bystander.
Terrifying, this is an extremely calm old mage who can be called cold.
Wu Ming's face remained calm, and he just waved his hand secretly to Peggy to calm down the confused Peggy.
"Wu Ming, what's wrong with Dave?"
"Don't ask too much, just remember that Dave is no longer the Dave he used to be, and you are still yourself!"
Wu Ming answered in a low voice, then bowed respectfully to Merlin and said in a low voice: "Master, do you have any plans now? If possible, I have some questions that I would like to ask you!
"
"Why do you call Master Dave? Isn't Dave your disciple?"
Peggy still didn't understand all this, but Wu Ming didn't answer, just gave her a fierce look.
Seeing Wu Ming's gaze, Peggy's head was in a state of confusion, but she didn't dare to say anything more.
On the other side, Dave rubbed the dragon ring on his hand and stared out the window: "What question do you want to ask?"
"It's about the Book of Elements."
Wu Ming answered quickly, while Dave frowned and whispered: "That is a cut-off road. If you explore it rashly, there will be disasters. Do you understand?"
After hearing Dave's warning, Wu Ming nodded seriously and persisted: "I understand, but I still want to know why that road is cut off. And in that Book of Elements, what are the weird things written in it?
What do you want to tell?”
"Come to my room in the middle of the night!" Dave was silent for a while, and after saying this, he left without looking back.
On the spot, Wu Ming looked a little weird, and he had some ambiguities in understanding Dave's words.
What does it mean to come to my room in the middle of the night? The ancient people from thousands of years ago were so rude in their way of speaking. Didn't you see that Peggy next to you was dumbfounded?
"Wu Ming, what are you..."
Peggy's eyes widened and she pointed at Dave who was leaving, and then at Wu Ming himself.
Wu Ming waved his hand gently and explained: "Don't get me wrong, the current Dave, strictly speaking, should be Merlin himself who died thousands of years ago. Now, he has returned, can you understand me?
What do you mean?"
"Died and came back. Is the current Dave the one who wrote the Book of Merlin?"
Peggy looked surprised. Even after seeing Wu Ming nod, it was still hard to accept.
The resurrection of the dead is incredible in itself, let alone happening around me.
However, after these few days of training, Peggy's ability to accept unknown things has greatly improved. Although she still had many questions to ask, looking at Wu Ming with a serious face, she still nodded and endured it.
"Maybe the Dave who followed me like a wild dog in heat will never come back!"
Watching Wu Ming's leaving figure, Peggy didn't know why, but she suddenly missed the old Dave. Although that Dave was a bit naive, he was really kind to her, and he couldn't be as indifferent as he is now.
