Earth Raiders progress report [comprehensive British and American]

Merlin was indeed the so-called superior person mentioned by the quartermaster earlier.

Unlike Joshua who directly travels through time and space, he has actually lived from ancient England to the present. When Joshua left with the Enterprise, Camelot was barely in a period of daily peace, but looking back now, you can also see Knowing what happened after Joshua left, in short, it is a tragedy of the fickleness of the world.

Since Arthur's death, Merlin has lived alone until now. Thousands of years have passed, and even the hope that he might be able to wait until the death of the king, who is known as the eternal king, has gradually faded away. He himself knew that this was just a kind of self-consolation, and it was a pleasant surprise to see his old friend again at this time.

In fact, this is not a completely unexpected scene. Joshua left suddenly that year, and the disappearance of his friends made the young mage try the newly learned prophecy. The magic told him that they would see each other again in many years, but it was uncertain. The waiting time for the king is as long as the waiting for the king, and it almost makes people give up.

For so many years, the way the archmage waited has changed from traveling all over the world at first, to using other forces. It is more efficient to establish an agent organization than to search alone. Feeling more and more tired, Merlin would still go out to search, but most of the time it turned into checking the reports of the agents.

This has something to do with the prophecy. As time changed, he gradually realized what the words in the prophecy meant. In order to finally meet his old friend, he tried to build Kingsman, but the prophecy would guide him Still do it.

Rather than saying that he established Kingsman to find people, it is better to say that a secret service organization that looks like a model of a distant era can barely give him some nostalgia and sustenance. Modern knights, kings, and magicians seem to be the only way to live if he is not the only one. It may be like the situation until now, but it is a pity that the name Joshua has not become one of the knights.

But at least he waited until Joshua.

The old friend when we met again was a little different from what he remembered, at least he would not have imagined that one day Joshua would wear such a blindfold. In many cases, compared to Arthur, a regular member of the royal family, the polite and well-educated Joshua would instead Make him feel more like a prince, so that showing up at this kind of party creates a serious sense of incompatibility.

However, Eggsy came here as a spy, and Joshua was not surprised. Other than that, the young man was not much different from what he remembered.

What he didn't expect was that in addition to framing, there were non-humans who wanted to assassinate Joshua. Originally, after Merlin confirmed that the other party was indeed the Joshua he knew, he planned to tidy himself up first, and then waited for the incident to end. Tell Eggsy to invite the other party over, at least let the old friend be mentally prepared, after all, I haven't seen him for a thousand years, and there are still a lot of irrelevant people around.

It's a pity that he just arranged himself to look like a thousand years ago, and the assassination of the devil brought the meeting of the two forward. Fortunately, Joshua seemed to have noticed something before, and the reunion was not too abrupt.

The eyes are completely covered in darkness. This feature is simply the most obvious proof of being possessed by a demon. The detective mentioned Joshua's weapon invented for the demon hunter before. Perhaps this is the reason why the old friend was targeted for assassination?

Merlin guessed right, the weapon that Joshua handed over to the Winchester brothers made the demons feel a great sense of crisis. Although this thing is not enough to kill Lucifer and the like, it is very useful to many low-level demons. For the demons, hunting and killing has become extremely easy, and if they continue to update and upgrade, even the king of hell cannot guarantee that they will be able to escape unscathed.

Therefore, whether it is for themselves or Lucifer's orders that have possessed other humans, this human must be dealt with. At this moment, when most people relax, it is a very good opportunity for assassination.

After being repulsed by the archmage, the demon who originally had only one summoned many companions. A considerable number of guests in the venue were occupied by demons. This made the two people who reunited after many years no longer have any time to reminisce. Merlin This legendary name also made those who knew it more affected in a burst of surprise and uncertainty.

Winchester finally rushed over at this time.

They had been paying attention to the dynamics of the demons and Lucifer these days. After some contests, they finally realized that the demons kept making trouble for them during this period of time to prevent them from rescuing Joshua. In their eyes, Joshua was just an ordinary human scientist with better skills, and the two brothers became the biggest obstacle for them to complete the task.

Joshua allowed Sherlock to meet the demon hunters in England, thanks to the actions of the demons during these days.

But in the current situation, besides the Winchesters, there is also a very difficult archmage. After possessing the guests at the scene, I learned from memory that there is also a Spiderman here, and Winchester Te also rushed over, and the task became much more difficult in an instant.

"Wow, I feel like we're in a zombie movie now." Peter complained in the interval of the battle, because the demon is possessed by humans, which prevented him from playing too hard.

"At least they don't eat their brains." Joshua said, and Melin took a second look at him when he took up the topic of chat so kindly.

Peter noticed this movement, and finally remembered that his boyfriend was from ancient England, and Merlin was also from ancient England. The two are good friends. The current scene is almost as if he is meeting his parents, and the expression of his good neighbor in New York suddenly becomes a little tensed up.

"I'm sorry." After apologizing to an unknown demon who accidentally seriously injured him, Peter turned to the legendary great magician, "Let me introduce myself, I'm his boyfriend."

In the next moment, all the demons were pushed away by a medium magic balance.

"Spider-Man." The archmage's voice sounded a little cold, and Peter was inexplicably at a loss when there were no enemies suddenly.

"Uh, it's me." The young man's uncomfortable appearance really resembled the uneasiness faced by relatives and friends in his lover's family.

In fact, Merlin didn't have much feelings for Peter. He didn't know much about this superhero. He was just a little surprised. After all, in their era, it was still not legal to fall in love with a fellow man. Of course, he knew that in today's era It's normal for the same sex to be together, but it's just that Joshua is from the same generation as him, and the fact that he has a boyfriend still makes him a little unexpected.

On the contrary, the demon hunters who came here not long ago, after hearing what Peter said, finally confirmed that Spider-Man is really Joshua's boyfriend. Get up here.

It’s just that this conversation couldn’t continue. The reason why the demons haven’t retreated and choose to assassinate them next time after facing the unfavorable situation is because the weapon that Joshua handed over to the demon hunter has been updated to the near-final level. Lucifer could see that Joshua could also be killed by this invention as long as he did the last update, so the demons would not be allowed to back down, and he himself appeared after realizing the situation.

Unlike the demons just now, since Joshua has to undergo another update and upgrade to kill Lucifer, it proves that the king of hell is far stronger than ordinary demons. When Lucifer possessed by humans appears, the presence of Everyone can feel the imposing oppression from a powerful force.

Including Merlin.

He has lived too long, in other words, he is actually old.

In order to meet Joshua, he can use magic power to make his body truly return to his youth, but the weakening of his strength is still inevitable. Thanks to his natural powerful magic power, he has already lived much longer than many mages , even the previous supreme mage Gu Yi had to rely on the power of darkness to survive for so long, and in the end he could only let Strange succeed him, and Merlin relied on his own magic power, and a thousand years was enough for him to become weak.

If it was in its heyday, Merlin would probably have the power to fight against Lucifer, but now, it is really easy to deal with demons of that level before. The mage was here in time, for all he knew, too young to be of much use, even the new mage supreme.

"As a human being, it's really admirable that you can do this." The King of Hell said, "It's a pity that you can only stop here."

Facing Lucifer's ominous declaration, Merlin resisted the other party's attack on his old friend. Fortunately, after that, he might feel that the general situation was settled, and Lucifer was not in a hurry to launch the next attack.

From the current point of view, their situation is indeed not very favorable. This gathering was originally a mission. Peter had a communication with the Avengers, but when he wanted to contact him, he found that it was no longer possible to communicate, and Lucifer One thing is right, the weapon in the hands of the demon hunter has to be updated for the last time to kill him, and under normal circumstances, humans cannot successfully upgrade a weapon at such a fast speed.

But Joshua is a reformer.

"Can you teach me magic?" The short brown-haired young man asked the archmage beside him, this question caused Lucifer to suspend his plan with great interest.

Since Strange mastered magic by learning, it means that anyone with understanding can become a mage, and magic can help him update and upgrade quickly. He has the current model in his hand, and he only needs a little magic. He'd be able to bring it to its final form, and Lucifer... was so human, he'd be interested to wait.

If it weren't for the need to find a mage to get started, which was not easy to handle before, maybe now he can already work as a mage part-time to reduce the unfavorable situation at this time.

When he was in ancient England, he thought that only born magicians could learn it, and he didn't ask Merlin if he could teach him. Only after he met Strange did he realize that this was not the case. If he had known earlier, it would be much easier now.

"I'm a quick learner." Joshua explained to the puzzled Merlin, "Magic can quickly update my weapon, otherwise with the current model level, some kind of strong power must be used as a foundation to kill him. "

After all, he is not a non-human, and his speed still has a limit. Lucifer will wait to see if he can learn magic in a short time, and interrupt and decide to kill him when he thinks it is dangerous, but he will not wait for him to update and upgrade. The weapon, the opponent just appeared to prevent him from upgrading.

It's a pity that Merlin didn't think that Joshua could really learn magic in a short period of time, and he didn't know anything about the principles and techniques of the opponent's weapons. He only asked, "Is magic possible? How much?"

Joshua didn't know that magic power could still be sent out. He originally planned to catch a demon as a raw material, but since he could do so, he didn't need to be so troublesome to learn magic. Even if he was smart enough, he couldn't do it in different fields. Guaranteed that he can really learn it successfully, so he replied: "A little bit is enough."

Merlin's magic power should be much purer than that of demons, and it would be much easier to strengthen and improve it. Energy like demons or nuclear weapons would be much more troublesome to transform.

But the great magician obviously didn't believe what Joshua said. He gave away a lot, and his face became visibly older. The loss of magic power weakened him, so that Joshua was a little surprised that the opponent sent so much magic power so simply.

"As long as you promise to kill him." The archmage said this. He is a mage after all, and he knows some of the dangers of Lucifer to this world, so there is nothing to hesitate at this time. He has reluctantly met Joshua. After finishing his regret, if he needed more magic power, he would not be stingy, not to mention that he believed that since Joshua could say that, he was really sure that he could kill Lucifer.

Faced with Merlin's almost self-sacrificing behavior, Joshua actually didn't feel much. In his opinion, such a move was unnecessary, but he could also speculate that after a thousand years, Merlin had already lived enough, so That's why he didn't express any opinions, and only promised: "I will kill him."

When he turned to the King of Hell in front of him, the reformed man looked extremely indifferent.

Lucifer instinctively felt something was wrong, and was about to leave this place, but was quickly stopped by the young man who raised his hand.

The situation at this moment was reversed in an instant. The modified man with amber eyes took two steps in the direction of the trapped king of hell. Lucifer strangely felt the invisible oppression from a human being, and was waiting for Joshua to make the final move. With one blow, a strange young man appeared in front of them out of thin air.

"Michael." The demon hunter called out the stranger's name. It seemed that this legendary angel had occupied the skin of a human just like Lucifer, and Winchester's tone showed that they did not welcome each other at all. At the same time, Cassidio, whom he had met before, also appeared on the scene, and he seemed to disagree with Michael.

The archangel possessed by humans turned towards Joshua, "I must have a fight with him, you can't kill him now."

However, the prevented reformer didn't care about Michael's words at all. In fact, his behavior was interrupted, which made him a little unhappy. Of course, killing Lucifer requires a quick decision. This guy can't stop him even if he is an angel.

"If you insist on killing him, then I can only..." Before finishing speaking, Michael suddenly found himself trapped in the same place as Lucifer.

The young man with soft brown hair only gave him a calm look, and continued to walk towards Lucifer, "I promised I would kill him."

As soon as the words fell, the King of Hell, who was originally too powerful, easily turned into dust under a seemingly gentle attack.

Lucifer is really dead.Michael clearly felt this, and his eyes couldn't help but become a little complicated when he looked at the weak human beings.

Fighting Lucifer is the mission given to him by God the Father, but now that Lucifer is dead, then he...

Just when the archangel was in a daze, he suddenly noticed something moving towards the human who killed his brother at the place where Lucifer died. Joshua seemed to have also seen this thing, and after reaching out his hand doubtfully to catch it, the light It melted on the fingertips of the young man.

Michael suddenly realized what it was, and Cassidio also realized that Lucifer had died cleanly. This was not a trap or possession of Lucifer before his death, but... just like an angel maintained by glory. The identity of an angel, this thing seems to mean the king of hell... Whether it is a godhead or glory, in short, this human being has become the new king of hell.

"I want to fight you." The trapped Archangel seemed to wake up from his confusion. Lucifer was dead, but he still wanted to believe in his mission, so the person he needed to fight became the one before him. of this human being.

Joshua, who accepted the King of Hell—let’s call it Godhood for the time being—has also gained some information and power from it, and he probably understands what’s going on now.

Unlike Michael, he doesn't care much about this kind of mission. In fact, God's instruction to Michael is to fight Lucifer, not any random king of hell. Caught some kind of unreliable hope when it crashed.

And what he realized was that as long as he found God with the weapon in his hand and this new power, he would be able to kill him, which meant that it was so easy for him to become a new god. The goals of world order have become too simple to be interesting.

But it is meaningless to give up this goal, so he thought, maybe he can reorganize the world in another way—in other words, it should be the earth—because this god, God is not omnipotent, even if Being the new God does not mean that he is the most powerful in the universe.

That's why it's interesting to make other people the new gods.

"Are you okay?" Peter's worried voice brought him back from his thoughts.

As a human who doesn't know much about angels, demons, and hunting, Peter doesn't know what happened like the two angels present. He only knows that something has entered his boyfriend from Lucifer. I couldn't help worrying about whether it was a curse attack or something, and Joshua seemed to be thinking about something, and didn't respond to Michael's declaration.

"It's okay, but Peter..." The brown-haired and brown-eyed reformed man paused when he looked at his boyfriend, which made Peter solemn.

Then he heard Joshua say, "I seem to be the new king of hell."

"I want to fight you." Michael interrupted the conversation between the two.

Joshua actually didn't care about the mission of the archangel, but it was always annoying, so he turned to the other party, his tone returned to his usual gentleness, and asked, "Are you sure? You are likely to die."

"This is my mission." The archangel's tone was as firm as his expression.

Nodding, Joshua untied the other party, and asked politely: "So it started?"

Receiving an affirmative answer, Joshua waited for two seconds, then raised his hand, and the Archangel turned into dust like his brother.

The Winchester brothers and Cassidio both looked a little complicated for this simple duel. After all, they had spent a lot of effort fighting against this so-called fate before, but it was Merlin, the mage from ancient England, who became a new opponent for duels and friends. The Lord of Hell thing is well received.

The reformer with amber eyes looked at the demon hunter brother who was too shocked to say anything, and assured him gently, "Don't worry, I don't have any desire to destroy the world."
