"Generally speaking, the diver must have his hands fall into the water first, which can reduce the resistance, and the probability of danger will be lower. But if you jump into the hands from a height of 200 feet, this is simply the craziest in the world. The cliff diving, so my experience has been difficult to help you, luck is the most important..."

"I mean, if you have any special abilities, it's best to use them! This is no joke!"

Midnight is approaching, and on the cliff coast outside the lighthouse, Tom drags a whole lot of things from his pickup and puts them at Merlin's feet.

He said to Merlin:

"There is no reef beneath the cliff. This is the best news for you. You don’t need to worry about being killed. But be sure to keep your body upright as much as possible to reduce the impact of the body and the water surface. At the lowest, also, wear glasses to avoid eye injury."

"The most important thing is, don't faint!"

Tom tells Merlin the key points as simple as possible:

"Jumping from such a high place, the collision between your body and the water surface will have a huge impact, you have to go through it, otherwise it will be too late even if I go to save you immediately."

"I try my best."

Merlin was also nervous. He wore a diving suit, buckled his swimming goggles to his eyes, and then moved his body around the cliff.

At 200 feet, people will feel dizzy when they look down. If there are other options, Merlin will not be so desperate.

The sea breeze of the deep sea hit him in the face, making him feel a cold, he continued to breathe deeply, trying his best to keep his state at his best.

Merlin was not worried about his death.

Several trials in the past have proved that the dark forces in his body will help him escape disasters at a critical moment in life.

What worries him most is that even if he puts everything aside to take risks, he still can't catch the fleeting hope.

"Are you ready?"

Tom looked at Merlin nervously. He said:

"Otherwise, wait a few days? After you are familiar with diving."

"Do not!"

Merlin looked back at Tom. He gritted his teeth and said:

"Can't wait any longer, wait any longer, I might not have the courage to do so...Thank you, Tom, thank you for giving me a chance."

"I gave you, maybe a ticket to hell."

Tom is a really kind person, at this moment, he regrets a bit, he said:

"I regret it, Merlin, maybe at first, I shouldn't tell you about the people under the sea."

"It's too late to regret now, bless me, Tom!"

Merlin clenched the trident pendant in his hand, and after taking a deep breath, he ran towards the cliff, and then tried his best to jump, as if flying.

His body rose into the air, and in the air, as Tom taught, opened his arms and maintained his balance. He saw the sea under the night, and when he turned, he saw Tom standing on the cliff and waved at him, and then looked at While spinning, he saw the sea.

Merlin's arms were stuck to his body, like a falling arrow, and he rushed towards the sea under the night.

The wind and the cold wind beat his face, making him almost unable to open his eyes, his hair shook wildly in the cold wind, and in front of him, the endless sea was getting closer and closer, like a real side mirror.

The dark power in his body seemed to feel the danger is approaching. At the moment of getting closer and closer to the water, Merlin's hands and body began to "melt" like dissipated smoke.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Merlin felt the change in his body, which represented the force that thought he would be in danger of life. This also made Merlin unable to resist a series of screams.

The moment he fell into the sea, his body spread out in an instant.

It was like a smog of smoke smashed, black, with Martian smoke, exploding violently on the surface of the icy seawater, like a bomb exploding on the sea, splashing water splashing in a loud noise Into the air, breaking the waves.

In the smoke, Merlin fell into the icy water. He remembered Tom's warning and closed his mouth so that he would not choke on the water.

In addition to Tom on the cliff, under this dark wave, another person also witnessed Merlin's hopeful jump throughout, but after Merlin smashed into the water like a stone, the underwater man held the knife handle , With a look on his face, said:

"Sound effects...full score."

"Poses...0 points."

"Another overwhelming suicide...there is a devilish smell on him. May the sea forgive him."

Speaking, this person who stood in the water as if standing on the ground gently waved his arm, and he planned to turn around and leave.

But between his last glances, he saw the silver pendant held tightly in Merlin's palm, which stopped the man's turn.

After a while, he leaned forward, like a cannonball, and rushed towards Merlin with an unimaginable speed. Before Merlin did not respond, he held Merlin's arm and then turned quickly in the water.

Merlin felt the turbulent water splash on his face, and the kinetic energy of nearly sound speed in the water exerted on his consciousness, just like a heavy punch hitting his chin.

The front view of his goggles wobbled, so that he could not clearly see the objects in the surrounding water, and only vaguely saw a dark figure.

Merlin's subconscious struggle struck a contemptuous smile on the undersea man who held his arm. His feet swayed in the water, accelerating again at an extremely fast speed.

The force exerted on Merlin's body doubled in an instant. He even heard the overwhelming click sound of his spine, which made Merlin dark in front of him and fainted in the water.

The underwater man's fingers wobbled. After a while, a summoned dolphin circled the two of them a few times, and then came up with the unconscious Merlin, and followed the underwater man, swimming towards the south.

By the time Merlin woke up again, he was already on a white sandy beach, surrounded by sea breezes, constant waves, and the croaking of seagulls.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a dazzling sunlight, which made him reach out unconsciously, blocking the light in front of him. His mouth was full of salty and bitter taste of sea water, which made people feel very thirsty.

"who are you?"

A voice sounded behind Merlin, causing Merlin to jump. He turned around and saw a stranger sitting on the rock on the beach behind him. In the man's hand, he was holding the silver pendant that Tom gave Merlin.

"Are you an underwater man?"

Merlin looked at the man. His appearance was no different from that of human beings. His black hair became a weird bun on top of his head. He couldn't help but look twice. And he wore a black suit similar to a robe, not like a human costume, but the tight robe is certainly easy to move in the water.

In short, if you look at it from the outside, this person is definitely not like the undersea person Merlin imagined.

No fins, no scales, no tails...not at all like fantasy creatures.

"Accurately, I am from Atlantis."

The man looked at Merlin. A light flashed in his green eyes. He reached out and suspended the pendant in the air. He said:

"How can you have the token of Her Majesty Atlanta? Where did you get it from?"

"It was from Tom Curry."

Seeing that the man admitted his identity, Merlin was a little excited. He said truthfully:

"Tom discovered that you were moving around Ci'en Port. He was very worried. He didn't know if this was a warning from the undersea people. He was a father, and the child was always the father's greatest weakness... He wanted to know, what are you bringing Come in good faith or maliciously?"

"Tom Curry..."

The dark-haired undersea man remembered the name with a clenched voice, and he took a deep breath and said indifferently:

"I should have killed him five years ago. If I did that then, nothing would happen."

"The arrogant terrestrials are always like this, thinking that the world revolves around you... Tom is just a mere mortal, and the only reason I am in the port of Ci En is Arthur, Arthur Curry, The prince of Atlantis, he has the noblest blood of Atlantis Seven Seas Kingdom, nothing more."

"Tom also wants to know, should he let Arthur continue to touch the water?"

Merlin said again:

"Arthur has a talent, I have seen it with his own eyes, he can order the creatures in the sea, those fish...even sharks and whales. But in my experience, this talent may not be a good thing for little Arthur. If he wants to live in human society, he will have to hide his talents."

"Can he order fish?"

The undersea man looked surprised, and he looked at Merlin:

"Are you sure? The last time I came to see him, the kid didn't have this ability!"

"Last time? When?"

Merlin looked at the underwater man in front of him in confusion. The latter silently calculated the time difference between Atlantis and humans. He said:

"Probably a few months ago, I had other things to do. Queen Atlanta is my friend, but I must first be loyal to my king."

Merlin noticed keenly that when this underwater man talked about Arthur's mother, a flash of pain flashed in his eyes, which made Merlin anticipate some bad things.

But he did not choose to say it, he explained:

"Little Arthur told me that this was the ability he discovered by accident when he visited the Aquarium last month. At that time, you haven't returned yet, you should have missed it."

"Well, it should be."

The underwater man nodded, he said:

"As it should be, the blood of the Atlanta family flows in Arthur's body. He is destined to do something big...but you, the landman! You must stay away from Arthur!"

The tone of the underwater man became colder. He looked at Merlin as if he had seen through all the secrets of Merlin. He warned:

"You are shrouded in dark power, you are doomed, you are an unknown person. From now on, I forbid you to appear next to Arthur, if I let you find you close to him again, I will not hesitate Throw you into the trench!"

"I know!"

Merlin finally seized the opportunity, he looked at the undersea people in front of him, he said:

"This is also the purpose of my desperate search for you. Tom told me that the undersea people can use magic, you see, my body is doomed, including the dark power of the hell, these are not what I want...I think I beg you to help me, even if you just tell me how to eliminate these crazy dooms?"

"You mean, let me help you wash away the dark magic in your body?"

The underwater man smiled, and he asked Merlin a question instead:

"Not to mention if I can do it, terrestrial...Importantly, why should I help you?"

Without waiting for Merlin to answer, the undersea man said happily:

"Atlantis has existed longer than you think. Human civilization has almost grown under our eyes. In my long life, I have seen many ignorant terrestrial people blindly pursue power, like you. The situation in your so-called Middle Ages is almost ridiculous... Most people involved in demons are responsible for themselves."

"In my opinion, you are no different from your crazy compatriots, and it is not worth saving at all."

"But I am not willing!"

Merlin pointed his eyes and retorted:

"None of this is what I want! It was the demon who forced me, if I could, I'd rather it never happened!"

"Really?"

The underwater man smiled disdainfully, he pointed to Merlin's eyes and said:

"Dark magic fills every corner of your soul. This is a sign of the establishment of the devil's contract. Since it is a contract, it means that you have made a deal...you used this as a price to exchange something from the devil."

"Landman, look into my eyes and tell me, if I give you a chance to reverse everything, will you really refuse that contract?"

"I..."

Merlin wanted to simply say no, but James Colson's face suddenly appeared before him, which made Merlin hesitate at this moment.

Is he really willing to reverse everything and watch James die in a car accident?

Is he really willing to give up this maybe the only chance to save James?

Maybe...

This underwater man is right.

The contract was completed, and James survived, at the cost of his doom, despite the fact that no one lives, no ghosts...

But the question is, between his status quo and James' life, let him make a choice, which one will he choose?

The hesitation in Merlin's eyes did not escape the gaze of the undersea man, who shook his head and said:

"It seems that you understand it yourself, right?"

"Everything you encounter now may not come from your original intention, but the source is in your choice. Land people, we sea people have known since childhood, every creature must pay for its own choice, you have made a choice , You bear the result... there is no regret medicine in this world."

He turned around, intending to leave, he said:

"What you are chasing is just a pale image of regret. What you need is not salvation, but acceptance of this cold reality."

There was bitterness in Merlin's eyes. He looked at the underwater man who had left in front of him. He stretched out his hand blankly, but didn't know how to keep him. Until a few seconds later, Merlin asked hoarsely:

"Okay, I know. But, but can you tell me, is there a way to eliminate this doom? It really drives me crazy, and most importantly, I don’t want to see bad things because of me Born to live, I want to do good things... Please, please help me!"

"Oh, this is back to the question just now."

The undersea man turned to look at Merlin, he said:

"Am I and you friends? Am I obligated to do this?"

"I will keep Arthur Curry's secrets, and I believe my friends will too. I will stay away from Arthur as you wish, and I will not be with him all this life."

Merlin narrowed his eyes, he gritted his teeth and said:

"The most important thing is that I will keep Little Arthur, keeping his mother's secret..."

"She is actually gone, right?"
