"We will go to the Eastern European port in two days."

Merlin carried a lunch and walked into the room on the cargo ship with him and Barton. Button still checked his weapons and equipment in this small cabin just like yesterday.

Merlin put the lunch on the table in front of Button, who raised his head and nodded to Merlin, representing his silent thanks.

He did not eat immediately, but continued to do the thing at hand.

Merlin held an apple and sat looking at Button.

The latter used a knife to calibrate a black arrow. He turned the metal arrow of the arrow with a knife, and from time to time he laid the arrow on his finger, as if to test the balance of the thing.

"Do you use bows and arrows?"

Merlin asked suddenly, Button didn't pay attention to him, but put the calibrated arrow back into the arrow. There were already about 20 calibrated arrows in that black quirky arrow.

"Don't they all use guns now? Guns are more convenient, faster, and more powerful. Why do you still use bows and arrows? Do you have special abilities, or do you like this retro weapon?"

Barton still ignored him. This disregard made Merlin frown. He placed the half-eaten apple on the table and said to the agent in front of him:

"Fury asked us to cooperate, but your attitude doesn't seem to be what cooperation should be. I don't know if you are proud, or what's going on, this past day, we didn't even say enough words! You are to me Any comments? Clint!"

"No."

Button picked up an arrow again, and while calibrating with a knife, said:

"I just don't like talking, I don't have opinions about you."

He glanced at Merlin's expression, shook his head, put his hands down, then straightened his body, looking at Merlin in front of him, he said:

"Okay, Merlin, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Uh..."

The atmosphere was a bit embarrassing for a while. After all, there was always a topic in chatting about such things. Looking at Barton's indifferent face, Merlin didn't know what to say to him for a while.

He and Agent Barton in front of him are completely two characters. The common ground between them is almost pitiful.

"Tell me about this."

Merlin took the arrow in front of Button in his hand. He looked at Button and he said:

"Clint, why do you use a bow and arrow as a weapon? You see, it is inconvenient to carry and not easy to hide, and it is much slower to replenish ammunition than a firearm. It is simply a disadvantage throughout the body."

"No, it's not."

Agent Barton looked at Merlin. He said:

"First of all, don't call me Clint, call me Button."

"Okay, Clint."

Merlin nodded, and Agent Barton glared. The latter took a black short stick from the small box he carried with him, and flicked his wrist gently.

"Snapped"

There was a brittle sound, and the ends of the short sticks quickly extended out of curved black steel sheets. In the slight hum of the bow string, a black war bow appeared in Agent Barton's hands.

"The bow made of special materials can avoid X-ray detection when it is hidden. The weight is a quarter of a sniper rifle, with a special arrow, the effective range is about 600 meters. It can adapt to various operations. The environment is particularly suitable for infiltration and special operations. The arrows shot are silent and extremely suitable for assassination operations. When necessary, they can also be used as melee weapons."

Agent Barton looked at Merlin. He said:

"Seriously, Merlin, do you really think it would be more convenient to carry a heavy and easily exposed gun with you?"

"Uh, maybe not."

Merlin reached out and took over the war bow in Agent Barton's hand. He turned the alloy bow made by this modern craft upside down. Sure enough, as Barton said, this thing is much lighter than a sniper rifle.

"But you have to admit, Clint, the bow may be good, but is it really not convenient to carry an arrow?"

"You mean, ammunition problem?"

Agent Barton smiled and shook his head. He clapped the specially made quiver near his hand. There was a weird metal turntable at the bottom of the thing, which also looked like a customized precision weapon.

"The logistics department designed this quiver for me, which contains 60 arrows for different occasions, and the shaft can be reused. And even if the arrows are really used, I am not without counterattack. "

Button picked up a cherry on a toothpick from the plate in front of him. He put the fruit in his mouth, and then flicked the toothpick.

At the next moment, Patton waved his finger, and the apple on the table in front of Merlin was pierced with a toothpick.

"Cool!"

Merlin picked up the trembling apple and looked closely at it.

The toothpick shot by Barton penetrates the core of Apple directly from the middle. This exquisite technique means that if the toothpick shot by Agent Barton is at a distance between him and Agent Barton, it can easily penetrate his eyes, or throat.

It's hard to judge by skill, it looks like some kind of extraordinary talent.

Little Barton, who showed his hand, was not too proud. He retrieved the war bow, reverted it to the stance of a short stick, then picked up the spoon and began to eat lunch quietly.

"It makes me more and more curious."

Merlin pulled the toothpick out, took a bite of the apple, and said to the agent in front of him:

"Clint, what did you do before working as an agent? Was it a killer? Or was it Natasha, someone from another organization? When she was chased and killed, was Fury recruited?"

"Or, just like me, was there no way to choose to be an agent?"

Agent Barton raised his head and glanced at Merlin. He said:

"neither."

He put the last piece of bread in his mouth. After a while, he said to Merlin:

"My past was not as exciting as you thought, and I volunteered to join the Strategic Science Corps. Fury gave me a chance to do good, nothing more."

"So what did you do before?"

Merlin looked at the bow and arrow beside Barton, he said:

"Is it an archery coach?"

"me..."

Agent Patton's face flashed with memories. He looked at the sea outside the window and said:

"Before meeting Fury, I worked in...circus."

"circus?"

Merlin exclaimed.

Patton nodded, his face calm, as if telling someone else's story.

"Yes, in the circus, I used to be a juggler. I went through some things and then met Fury, that's it."

"Okay, Fury asked me to teach you something."

Seeing Merlin still want to question, Agent Barton stood up and moved his shoulders. He looked at Merlin:

"Exactly, I'm also curious, why Fury valued you so much... He said you have some extraordinary abilities. Before on the plane, I saw your strength beyond ordinary people, but I think you are sure More than that, right?"

Barton picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth, sending out an invitation to Merlin:

"Come on a'Friendly Game'."

——————————————————————

"It is rare that this ocean-going cargo ship can find an empty cargo hold."

Merlin opened a door and reached out and patted the dust in front of him. He looked inside. There was almost nothing in the cargo compartment. It was like an open space, suitable for a post-meal exercise.

"Yuri's ship is specially smuggled. They will dock in Albania, get a batch of low-cost weapons from there, and then send them to certain parts of Africa to make some difference."

Agent Barton with red goggles walked into the cargo compartment, he said to Merlin:

"In the arms dealer industry, Yuri is not a big seller, but he is also well-known."

"You look familiar with this ship? Who is Yuri? It sounds like a Russian."

Merlin shook his hand and brought a pair of black gloves to his hand. Hearing his question, Button whispered:

"I'm not the first to take this boat. As for Yuri, he is a Ukrainian immigrant, an arms dealer, and a partner of Fury. He often sends strategic agents to the Eastern European region."

"Then our "partners" are quite diverse."

Merlin spread his hands and moved ten fingers, and he nodded to Agent Patton:

"Are you ready?"

"let's start!"

"Swoosh"

At the moment when Merlin said the beginning, Barton's hand was raised, and a cold light flew towards Merlin, and the quick response made no response at all.

"Snapped"

The flying thing stopped at Merlin's ear, less than 3 cm from his ear. It was a silver triangular flying knife with sharp edges. At this time, the flying knife was being pinched by Merlin.

At the moment of stepping into the cabin, Merlin's dark perception has spread. Hawkeye Patton throws out the flying knife extremely fast, and the change of person must have bruised his ears, but for Merlin, who has been strengthened in perception and body, the speed and power attached to the flying knife cannot hurt him. .

"Don't look at Fury belittle me..."

Merlin squeezed the flying knife. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Button, who was waiting for him. He said:

"I'm not as weak as he said!"

"Swoosh"

The flying knife was thrown back by Merlin. Although he did not learn the skill of throwing a flying knife, he relied on the power of darkness and self, and the flying knife he shot was fast and ruthless, like an arrow out of line. He himself followed the flying knife, opened his hands, and drove towards Barton at a very fast speed.

Barton was even more silent during the battle. He turned to his side, letting the flying knife wipe his chest and nail it to the wall behind him. Seeing that Merlin had rushed in front of him, Hawkeye did not panic, his hands flicked outward, and two daggers appeared in the palm of his hand.

Merlin's fist was shunned by Barton's short body, and the tall and thin agent raised his sword against Merlin's neck instead. Merlin stepped back, dodged the blade, and grabbed the eagle eye's arm with the other hand, but was kicked in the abdomen by the eagle eye.

"boom"

This foot was like kicking on the tire, Merlin's body shook, but did not back away. He blocked with his left hand and his right fist blasted out, pushing the Eagle Eye Button back.

Merlin hasn't studied combat in a systematic way. In the Secret Service Academy, he also learned straight-forward military martial arts, but with his brutal force far beyond ordinary people, this set of martial arts is outrageous.

Hawkeye didn't try to attack anymore. He kept avoiding Merlin's fist, just like a tumbler, every time Merlin's attack was very close.

"Hey!"

Seeing that the eagle eye was forced to the corner, Merlin's eyes flashed coldly, and he threw his fists and smashed it towards the eagle eye. But at this moment, Patton's left foot slammed against the wall behind him, and the whole person was like a clown in a circus, turning over from Merlin's head.

His hands spread in the air, and two daggers staggered towards Merlin's shoulder.

Instead of using a knife edge, he touched it with a knife handle, and then used Merlin's shoulder force to fall lightly on the ground behind him.

If it was a life-and-death struggle just now, Barton's dagger had cut Merlin's neck.

"Ah, I lost."

Merlin reached out and pressed his shoulders. He looked back at Patton. He extended his thumb and admiredly said:

"It's really fast!"

"No, it's not that I'm fast."

Barton didn't have a proud expression. He put away his dagger and said to Merlin:

"I now know why Fury asked me to train you. Forget all the fighting skills you learned at the Secret Service Academy, it is not for you. Your strength is very strong, but the more precious thing is your reaction speed and super Strong perception, you should use quicker and more effective techniques, this straight style, but restrict your performance."

Hawkeye said to Merlin:

"From now on, I will teach you more useful techniques."

"Yes, what you want!"

Merlin smiled at Hawkeye. He looked around and lowered his voice to Barton:

"But before you start studying, come again, Clint. Don't keep your hands this time... don't you want to see my abilities?"

"Oh?"

Barton was also interested. The agent's fingers turned and two daggers fell into his hands. His body pressed down. He said to Merlin:

"Then I'm coming! Be careful!"

"Whizzing!"

The dagger in Hawkeye's hands flew toward Merlin with a throwing knife. This time he didn't keep his hand. The dagger was flying at least 2 times faster than the previous one. The most important thing is that these two The trajectory of the dagger flight is very strange, not a straight line.

"Snapped"

Merlin grabbed the first dagger, but the second dagger had thrust into his neck from the side. He blinked at Agent Patton. The next moment, before the flying knife touched Merlin, his figure was like a burst balloon, and it instantly turned into black smoke flying in the sky.

This scene made Patton's eyes wide and made him feel an extreme threat.

Hawkeye had no time to draw a fighting knife from behind. At the next moment, his eyes suddenly became dark, and the whole person was rolled up by smoke, tumbling in the air for a week, and even the fighting knife was released, and then was suddenly pushed on the ground by an explosive force.

"Uh"

The smoke in front of him quickly gathered and re-condensed into Merlin. He smiled at the stunned Button, and then let go of the hand that held the eagle's eye neck. He took a step back, pulled Button from the ground, and returned his fighting knife to him.

"How is it? Clint."

Merlin reached out and patted Patton on the dust. He said to the senior agent in front of him:

"Don't let you down?"

Facing this problem, Patton hesitated for a few seconds and then extended a thumbs up to Merlin. The indifferent expression he maintained finally fluctuated at this moment. He said hesitantly:

"This ability is amazing! But next time, don't just'show' it in front of others, Merlin."

"The bullet lost its deterrence when it flew off the barrel."

Patton reached out and patted Merlin's shoulder, he said softly:

"Protect your hole cards..."

"Come on, take off your gloves, I will teach you to fight..."
