How wizards learn science and technology

Cypher leads Merlin to Knockturn Alley.

She stopped in front of a dilapidated door, the dim and dirty counter hadn't been cleaned for hundreds of years.Without waiting for the boss to show up, Cypher took out the wallet from Merlin's waist and poured out half of the cash in it.

"Exchange it yourself, don't ask why, I need a room where no one will be disturbed."

The door next to the counter opened automatically.

"Keep her wounds off the furniture here."

Cypher said without looking back as he entered.

Merlin wouldn't do this without her telling him, the room was pitch black and as dirty as the counter.Merlin didn't want to see Phoebe's wound become infected.

He took off his coat with one hand, spread it on the bed, and carefully put Phoebe down.

Cypher's "sleeping" helped a lot, at least Phoebe wouldn't feel the pain when she fell into a coma.Her forehead was covered in cold sweat, and her body was still stained with blood. Merlin's distressed appearance made Merlin's heart ache all the way to his fingertips.

But now is not the time to be distressed.

Merlin took a deep breath, clenched his palms, and tried hard to endure the excruciating pain.

"You have to brew the potion," he said.

"The crucible, and some potions, I will write the formula to you." Cypher replied.

"No, I know what you need."

Cypher was taken aback, but he didn't ask any more: "Well, hurry up."

Merlin glanced at her cautiously: "If I don't see you when I come back—"

"—People from the Ministry of Magic are looking for me, and people from Duhović want to kill me. Where do you think I can go? There is no place that is safer than being with the royal agents. Wash the blood off my hands before leaving."

She was telling the truth, even though Merlin still didn't believe her.

But Merlin has no choice, either he leaves or Cypher leaves, at least now Cypher has shown that he is willing to cooperate.

So he didn't struggle anymore, and left Knockturn Alley according to Cypher's instructions.

Thank goodness Phoebe had brought Merlin to Diagon Alley once, and he clearly remembered the locations of all the shops.

Merlin first went to Gringotts to exchange the remaining pounds into Galleons, and then went to the cauldron store and pharmacy to buy equipment and materials.All the while he was trying to make himself look less urgent, and to be on the lookout for anyone following him.

When he returned with the items, Cypher didn't leave.

Immediately the witch set up the cauldron.She flipped through the ingredients that Merlin had bought, and then looked up at Merlin, as if surprised that he didn't buy any wrong ingredients.

Merlin walked over to Phoebe, who was still unconscious.

The girl's pale face was like a stone pressing down on Merlin's windpipe, making him unable to breathe.Merlin carefully brushed away Phoebe's blond hair sticking to her forehead, took out the handkerchief in her pocket, and wiped off the sweat and blood for her.

Then he sat down on the chair next to the bed that hadn't been wiped in indefinitely, and didn't care if his expensive jacket got stained or not.

Merlin was exhausted. In just half an hour, it seemed as if he had passed from a life-or-death situation.

Fortunately, Phoebe is fine, the potion will completely restore her health, otherwise... Merlin didn't dare to think about it.He took a deep breath, tried his best to calm himself down, and turned on the communication.

"Harry?"

Only then did Merlin realize that his voice had become extremely hoarse.

Harry responded almost immediately: "Thank God, what's going on?"

"Phoebe didn't block all the bullets," of course she didn't, the bullets were faster than the spell, "that's taken care of now, Cypher is brewing the potion."

"...you keep an eye on her."

It didn't take Harry to say that Merlin would too.

In terms of tasks, decades of tacit understanding have allowed the two to have no nonsense.Without waiting for Merlin to ask, Harry explained the current situation: "The attackers have all been dealt with, and the Ministry of Magic is in a mess now, and I was sent out."

Merlin: "See you at the headquarters."

He hung up the comm and looked up at Cypher.

The latter was busy in front of the cauldron. Sensing Merlin's gaze, Cypher turned his head slightly: "I owe her my life."

I hope you are really a moral person.

Merlin was focused, his wide palm kept stroking Phoebe's arm, the girl's cold body temperature was still more worrying than him.

"I can take you back to Kings|man headquarters," he said, "and we will take the blame on the Ministry side until Duhovic is caught."

Cypher sneered a few times: "You think I care where I'm locked up?"

A few hours later, the potion was complete.

Cypher poured the pure-color potions into separate glass bottles, and with a flick of her wand, Phoebe shuddered on the bunk, whimpered, and woke up.

"Merlin..."

Merlin stood up in response, and he carefully helped Phoebe up.

The girl in her arms opened her eyes, and the gray pupils were covered with mist.She waited for a long time before regaining a clear consciousness.

It hurt so much that Phoebe wished she could pass out again.

The wound stopped the bleeding, but not the pain.A mixture of gunshot wounds and secondary injuries from shrapnel torn flesh, Phoebe had never experienced such pain since birth.

"Phoebe, open your mouth."

She heard Merlin say this, and Phoebe followed his words instinctively, and then the potion was poured into her mouth little by little, and flowed into her esophagus.

Wound healing is also painful.

But it was a good pain, and Phoebe gasped and couldn't help whimpering.She rested her head on Merlin's shoulder and tightly clenched the man's broad hand.

"I will, I will," she raised her head with tears in her eyes, a faint haze covered her once clear eyes, and the familiar haze frightened Merlin, "Will I die?"

He had seen this haze in the eyes of many dying people before, but Merlin knew that Phoebe would recover soon.

"do not worry."

The man's hand on Phoebe's waist tightened, and he whispered in Phoebe's ear.

The young girl was leaning against his chest, her body was cold, and he squeezed Phoebe's palm, trying to convey warmth to her in this way

"It's not black magic, and it's not a poisonous magical creature. The gunshot wound is purely physical damage. You're doing well and you'll recover soon."

If there were no spells and potions, Merlin would not dare to be so sure.

This isn't a superhero movie, and Phoebe doesn't wear a bulletproof jacket like Kings|man's field agent.He didn't dare to think about what would happen to the wizard who was shot if he couldn't be dealt with immediately.

"It hurts, Merlin."

There was a tear in Phoebe's voice.

Damn it, Merlin cursed in his heart.

In this dirty and dilapidated room, far away from science and technology, Merlin was completely powerless to deal with his lover's pain.

With the title of a magician, Merlin, who is omnipotent in the eyes of field agents, experienced for the first time the helplessness of having more energy than energy.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Merlin didn't know how many years he hadn't experienced this kind of feeling. Even when Miss Bobby almost blew up Kings|man, he still had at least a "backup plan" that had been passed down for hundreds of years.

"Cypher."

Right now, all he can do is look across the room at the hacker frantically emailing his phone.

"Is there any way to get Phoebe to sleep a little longer?"

Cypher put down his phone, raised his eyebrows and glanced at Merlin indifferently.

She didn't say much, just walked out of the room, and came back in a moment with a blanket and another bottle of potion.Cypher threw the blanket to Merlin, and placed the potion and Phoebe's wand on the head of the bed at the same time.

Merlin was dumbfounded, he didn't expect Cypher to cooperate enough to take the initiative to hand over his wand.

"Don't look at me like that," Cypher said nonchalantly, "the wand recognizes its owner. It assumes that I will save your little girlfriend so that I can use it freely. I just gave her a sleepy one, and the wand won't Allow me to curse her again. Fortunately, Knockturn Alley is never short of drugs to bring people down."

Her words were full of unconcealed resignation.Of course, Cypher, who surrendered her wand, lost all her weapons, and even if she could still use wandless magic, it would be much more difficult.

Merlin glanced at the dark potion hesitantly: "Are you sure it won't cause harm to people?"

Cypher: "Or you can persuade her to continue suffering."

He sighed.

"Phoebe," Merlin bowed his head and kissed Phoebe's hair lightly, "drink this and you'll be fine."

Fortunately, the potion worked quickly.

At least faster than painkillers, Phoebe fell asleep not long after drinking the medicine.Hearing her breathing gradually stabilized, Merlin felt relieved.The slender fingers in his palm were gradually warming up, and it was almost certain that by the time they got back to Kings|man headquarters, Phoebe would be able to move around freely.

"So you didn't implement any measures against Duhovic?"

Cypher was half leaning on the dilapidated sofa, his long legs stretched wantonly, his expression was scrutinized, half mocking and half questioning.

Of course there are measures, in fact Merlin still thinks their plan is perfect and smooth.only……

"Our people have infiltrated Duhovic's territory and installed monitors in his mansion," he thought for a moment, and decided to share this part of clues with Cypher, after all, she knew the Eastern European dictator better than they did. "But until yesterday, there was no noteworthy information in the monitoring content."

Cypher smiled a few times: "You have been discovered."

Merlin: "That's okay, Duhovic won't know who we are."

The existence of Kings|man has always been mysterious and low-key, even Valentine could not find out, let alone a dictator who took the initiative to seal off the country?

It's just that, if you want to get rid of Duhovic, you have to start from scratch.

"I don't intend to exchange your trust," Cypher said calmly, "That's not necessary. But I want to live, so I can show my sincerity, Merlin, you want to know what the poison|drug formula is for, I I can tell you."

Merlin's heart tightened.

He turned his head to the side. Before entering the Ministry of Magic, Merlin listed countless backup plans, including coercion and inducement to negotiate and make peace, just to pry Cypher's mouth open.But he didn't expect that the answer came so easily, but he paid the price in blood.

"Not all potions are effective for Muggles. A large part of the reason is that the raw materials of many potions are highly toxic to ordinary people. The way to change this is similar to virus vaccines."

Cypher raised his hand and said slowly.

"Food the Muggles with meth, and then the antidote I developed before the medicine takes effect."

Merlin understood immediately.

"From then on, the poison of the potion will not harm his body," Saifu said. "After your people left Cambodia, I found Miss Bobby's body, Merlin, the formula you inadvertently strengthened is The most suitable of all."

Merlin: "..."

just for this?

He looked at Cypher with a complicated expression: "Then what do you want to use this technology for?"

Assuming that Cypher wanted to use the new technology for purely medical purposes, and she came to borrow the formula herself, Kings|man had no reason not to give it.

And when she heard the words, she just pulled a standard villain boss's troublesome smile.

I knew it was not a good thing.

Forget it, now is not a good time to entangle Cypher's purpose, there is obviously a more evil and troublesome villain waiting for them to deal with.

"You once stole the experimental records from Duhovic," Merlin said. "Do you have any good ideas for dealing with him?"

"Actually, I have."

Cypher stood up.

In the dim light, most of her face is hidden in the shadows, so the woman with sharp edges and gorgeous features appears sharp and decisive.

"But it depends on how much you are willing to pay to save the world."

A bad premonition rushed into Merlin's heart immediately.

The female hacker raised the corners of her lips, speaking provocatively and tentatively.

"Merlin, I want you to betray Kings|man."

The author has something to say: Don't call me abusive, don't you see that Phoebe is recovering now!

And it turns out that so many girls eat Merlin/Roxy!I thought I was alone_(:з」∠)_

The novel I read yesterday is called LaDouleurExquise by Bumbleblue. On ao3, girls who accept English fans can search it.

In fact, I think the difficulty of English fans is quite low, most of them are at level [-].Of course, it is not ruled out that some wives have good writing skills... Since so many girls like this CP, I will organize and scan the articles I have read, but I am busy recently, and it may take a little longer.
