Black Arrow, that is, the guy who is running for his life to avoid Lin En's pursuit, his true identity is the head of the Merlin Group, one of the top conglomerates in Star City like the Quinn Group: Marco Mmelin.
At the same time, he is also the biggest unrest factor in the entire Star City, the super mastermind who has been plotting to destroy a quarter of Star City.
Malcolm Merlin is different from others in that he does not have a prominent life experience. Apart from the fact that his last name corresponds to the great magician Merlin in ancient legends, there is nothing worth talking about.
Starting from scratch is the best and most appropriate evaluation of Maxim Merlin.
In the beginning, Malcolm Merlyn was really an innocent and kind-hearted man. He was born in poverty. With his own hard work and intelligence, he gradually turned the shoe repair shop left by his father into a small shop and a small company. , large companies...and then step by step became an important local entrepreneur.
While his career was successful, love also favored him.
Malcolm Merlyn met the love of his life, and coincidentally, the person he loved loved him back.
The two soon got together and gave birth to a son, Tommy Merlin.
With a successful career, a wife and children, Malcolm ushered in the happiest period of his life.
However, fate did not always favor him.
Like him, Malcolm's wife is also a kind-hearted person. Although her husband is already one of the richest people in the city, she still lives a simple life, traveling to and from the slums every day to treat the local poor for free. , solving problems of education, food, medical care, etc. for free.
Although Malcolm didn't want his wife to be tired, he always supported his wife as much as he could.
During that time, Malcolm Merlyn built a large number of public facilities for free in the slums, and also funded the construction of a hospital for the use of local residents, investing a large amount of money every year.
At that time, the surname Merlin was one of the pronouns of pure kindness in the slums of Star City.
However, there are unpredictable circumstances.
When Tommy was nine, his mother, Malcolm's wife, died in an accident.
And when Malcolm investigated a certain surveillance at that time, he discovered that his wife could have been saved at that time.
Those people in the slums, just for the jewelry on her body and the little cash in her wallet, watched helplessly as the woman they called an angel bled to death on the roadside.
No one reached out to help, no one made a phone call to the hospital. They just watched, watched her die, and then happily took away her watch, earrings, necklace, and stole her wallet, then destroyed the footprints and other clues at the scene, and left in a panic.
It is precisely because of these people in the slums that Malcolm still does not know who killed his wife.
He turned all his hatred towards the people in the slums.
They deserve to die.
Since then, Malcolm has tried many ways to take revenge personally. For this reason, his temperament has changed drastically. He is no longer the kind and easy-going Malcolm who has always been approachable.
After repeated failures, Malcolm traveled to Star City to learn skills from a so-called ninja master, and also saw a wider world.
From this perspective, Malcolm and Batman are actually brothers.
After several years of separation, Malcolm returned to Star City and became even more sinister and cruel because of the ninja master's less than legal teaching methods.
He began to think that perhaps there was no need to find the slum killer.
Maybe they all deserve to die.
Everyone.
All exist.
With this idea in mind, Malcolm prepared a crazy plan.
He wants to build a machine to artificially destroy all the slums in Star City! Let everyone pay the price for not saving anyone! Let the entire slum and everyone living there be buried with his wife! !
Ever since he had such a crazy idea, all of Malcolm's thoughts had been on this matter.
In order to place the machine, the space and other things needed for the plan, Malcolm had to buy a piece of land there, and he had to cooperate with other companies in Star City that were engaged in real estate and high-tech weapons laboratories. To this end, Malcolm weaved many lies and tied one Star City boss to his chariot one after another.
But his crazy plan was still seen through by his friend, the president of Quinn Group.
How could Malcolm allow anyone to expose him.
So, under his instruction and coercion, Moira joined forces with him to cause the shipwreck, causing old Quinn to die and leaving Oliver Queen to live on a desert island.
Originally, Malcolm cared about nothing but his own plans.
Apart from putting on his uniform and carrying a bow and arrow to kill people in the slums every day, he only focused on his own plan.
But one day, the ninja master he hadn't seen for a long time appeared in front of him and asked him to find a way to fight for a certain spaceship that crashed in the ocean.
Although Malcolm agreed to the Ninja Master, he hid a small thought.
When the guy who called himself General Zod came to Earth, he almost punched a big hole in the Earth with just that one spaceship.
If...if he had mastered the wreckage of the spaceship, wouldn't it...
Therefore, although he had the upper hand in salvaging the wreckage of the spacecraft because the location of the crash site happened to be on Malcolm's ocean transportation route, he only declared a failure to the outside world, and handed over part of it to the military and part to the Ninja Master and most of the rest. They were all intercepted by himself.
During this time, Malcolm was accelerating the plan to merge the Quinn Group's high-tech laboratories, and all his thoughts were focused on this matter. Even the indiscriminate killings at night had slowed down a lot.
But just earlier today, Moira suddenly called him secretly and told him that a certain Gotham gangster named Lynn had come to Star City, and his purpose was exactly the unknown object he found on the wreckage of the spaceship. ore.
When he heard the news, Malcolm was very disapproving. On the surface, he is the helmsman of a super large company with more than 10,000 employees, and his status is enough to treat everyone in the world equally.
Secretly, not to mention his well-trained warriors who only obey his orders, he himself is a top master who has endured all kinds of torture from the ninja master and successfully graduated.
A wanted guy was not worthy of his attention at all.
If Moira hadn't reminded him repeatedly and even dropped the phone with him because of this, Malcolm wouldn't even want to know who Lynn was.
Fortunately, he still went to find out.
It turns out that this guy named Lynn is a super criminal who almost turned Gotham upside down!
Malcolm was a little concerned now, but it was very limited.
However, the more he checked the information, the more detailed it was. The information on the surface was enough for him to face seriously. The information he got from some people using his secret identity shocked him even more.
Isn't there a guy named Batman in Gotham?
Why did he let a scary guy like Lin En run around? Is he considered a hero who protects the city? !
What kind of hero are you? !
And just as Malcolm was cursing in the office, his men brought him another not-so-good news.
His son, the only child he and his wife had, seemed to have... captured a guy named Linn.
After repeatedly confirming who was arresting whom and who was being arrested three times, Malcolm really panicked.
Tommy, Tommy! What did you say you did to provoke that Linn?
It’s too late to hide...
Although Malcolm, blinded by hatred, has neglected to discipline his son Tommy since the death of his wife, this does not mean that he does not care about his and his wife's only child.
Although he was usually reluctant to see him, which made the relationship between father and son tense, now that he knew that his son had kidnapped Lynn...no, it was his son who had been kidnapped by Lynn, Malcolm suddenly panicked.
Judging from what he learned about Lynn from those materials, Tommy would definitely die if he arrived too late!
He hurriedly asked people to continue to pay attention to and collect information about Lynn. Malcolm didn't care that it was broad daylight. He got a car, changed into his combat uniform, put on his bow and arrows, and rushed out of the city.
Tommy always wanted to prove himself in front of him, but he was too ambitious and incompetent. After the toy factory went bankrupt, it had become a gathering place for Tommy and that bastard Oliver to gather a bunch of the same losers.
He must be there!
Sure enough, Malcolm smelled the strong smell of blood from a long distance away. At this time, he only regretted that he did not have the ability to smell the blood type and could not tell whether his son had died of excessive blood loss... …
Just like, his wife was the same back then...
Thinking of this, Malcolm hurriedly got out of the car, put his bow and arrow on his back and ran into the factory.
To his surprise, he not only saw his son and Linn in the factory, but also saw a man who used a bow and arrow like himself, trying to stop Linn and save his son Tommy.
With his mind spinning, Malcolm wavered between his original plan to lure Lynn away and the plan that suddenly popped into his head to unite with the Green Arrow guy and shoot Lynn.
Frankly speaking, Malcolm himself was extremely hesitant about how to measure the wreckage of the spacecraft and the mysterious ore that he had obtained with his son's life.
However, the situation off the court did not give him too much time to think about it.
Almost after a few rounds of fighting, the Robin Hood-like green arrow had lost all its arrows and was forced in front of Linn.
The next second, Linn appeared behind Tommy, raising the arrow in his hand high.
Whoosh!
When he shot the arrow, Malcolm had actually made his choice.
"Lynn, I have what you need."
It's just a stone, not as important as his son's life.
Do you want to watch him die? ! !
Sure enough, it would be useful to ask for additional tickets →_→
I keep my word, I got off work a little late today, there is no time, I will update three times tomorrow, guaranteed to be 10,000 words! Two updates are daily, and one update is an additional update with a monthly pass.
In addition, Malcolm is really a more miserable villain with a more story-telling story. In the TV series version of the plot, he paid a slight price with his life, but it was a pity that the price was too high, and many people died. He is just... worthless. He has not been cleansed. He is dead. He is dead. His [career] has not been completely stopped. He has killed hundreds of people. He is speechless. He belongs to He is seeking benevolence but not benevolence, seeking righteousness but not righteousness, seeking life but not living. I don’t know what grudge the screenwriter has against him. Arranging such an ending for him is really a waste of time for this character.
