Chapter 326: The Price of the Soul (Part II)
The face covered by the hat was slightly raised, and a scarlet face was revealed.
Red Skull, the guardian of the Soul Gem, smiled as he looked up at the ship slowly descending in the air.
"It seems... Another soul is about to be sacrificed. ”
Boom, the god ship slowly descended... Overwhelmed a mountain rock.
Ivan glanced at the people on deck, during which time he had already told everyone about the 'Soul Gem'.
If you want to get the soul gem, you must sacrifice a person you love, whether it is family, love, friendship, as long as the degree is deep enough... That's all.
With everyone already aware of this, Ivan smiled slightly.
"Who wants to go with me to get the Soul Gem?"
Everyone looked at each other a few times, and the stone man was the first to speak: "I just met you, and it's definitely not your loved one, it has nothing to do with me, Mick and I quit!" ”
Angel's eyes widened: "Ivan, you won't... Do you really have to sacrifice one to get the soul gem? ”
Ivan smiled: "Who knows? ”
"Ahem... Ivan, you're not that kind of person, are you? Norlin scratched his head.
The Flame Emperor put his arm around his friend and said, "Anyway, I'm definitely not the one you love, I want to go with you, and I don't have a share!" ”
"Of course Ivan won't sacrifice anyone!" Little Cora is convinced of this!
Everyone was talking, and Ivan smiled and looked at Jessica.
"I'll discuss something with you~!"
...
Not far from the divine ship, the red skeleton guarding the soul gem frowned, wondering why no one had come down from the ship?
What do they discuss? My time is not time?
Just thinking about this, his shoulder was patted on the ground, and the red skull was stunned...
When he turned his head, he saw that Ivan and Jessica were already standing behind him, and the azure portal closed in an instant.
Wow! The red skull cloak was windless and automatic, and its body retreated and levitated!
"Jessica, Dave Campbell's daughter, and you... You are..."
Whenever the Red Skull sees a visitor, he has a habit of telling the other party's origin first.
In Avengers 3, Thanos is seen by Red Skull as soon as he arrives, and Red Skull claims that he has been cursed, and that curse allows him to 'understand' the identity of everyone who comes.
But now, he's suddenly stuck! He found that he couldn't see through this man with black hair and black eyes at all!
"Who are you... It doesn't matter, the important thing is that you are here for the gemstones. ”
In order to avoid embarrassment, Red Skull quickly changed his words: "You... You ready? ”
Ivan stared at the red skull in front of him.
This red skull has appeared in two movies, one is "Captain America 1", and he appears as the leader of Hydra in that era.
The other is "Avengers 3", he somehow acted as the guardian of the soul gem, which is not explained in the movie.
"Let's not talk about gems, I'm interested in you, do you know Steve Rogers?" Ivan smiled faintly, "It's Captain America." ”
Red Skull was stunned for a moment, he narrowed his eyes for a few seconds, then shook his head, and said in a hoarse voice.
"I don't know that hairy boy who only shouts 'I can fight for a day.'"
"You know, you used to be just an earthling, but now you are the guardian of the soul gem, I wonder what is the reason for this?" Ivan smiled faintly.
Red Skull narrowed his eyes: "You're special... You seem to know a lot, and I'm... I don't know you..."
"Is it special? Perhaps... But it doesn't matter. Ivan said lightly, "The important thing is that I want to know, is it convenient to talk about it?" ”
"You're the first person to be so interested in me."
The red skull levitated, and slowly spoke, "The only thing I can tell you is the fact that I was abandoned by the Space Gem. ”
"Then who gave your curse?"
"I've been cursed... You know that too? I don't think I told you—" Red Skull froze.
"Let's talk about it in detail."
"It's the goddess of death."
The Red Skull spoke: "The Soul Gem is an extremely special gem, but also the most dangerous, it not only carries the self, but also carries the hope of death, and people who do not even have the courage to give their beloved cannot be favored. ”
He squinted and continued, "Only... Someone got a soul gem and I... to be free, that's why I guide anyone who wants to get their hands on a soul gem, well, that's all I can say..."
"So the price you just mentioned..."
"If you want to take a gem, you will lose your beloved, and you will have a soul... Change your soul..."
The red skull said in a hoarse voice: "I can see that your relationship is not ordinary, although I can't understand you, but I have insight into her emotions, you are her love..."
Speaking of this, he turned around and walked to the edge of the cliff: "Don't believe it, this is the only ... The way to get the gems, give your... Love. ”
"So, how do you sacrifice count?"
Ivan and Jessica also walked to the edge of the cliff at this time, standing side by side with the red skull.
The red skull smiled and pointed to the bottom of the cliff.
That down there... There are piles of dry bones, and it is clear that people who have been pushed off this cliff have been pushed off this cliff.
And the reason why the soul gem is still here and not taken away, Ivan guessed that those people should have come without sufficient preparation, not with people who have feelings, but those people desperately want gems, and still want to try for the gems, and do not hesitate to kill each other.
"Just push your loved ones down here and make sacrifices... That's it. Red Skull said slowly.
Ivan nodded: "I'm willing to follow the rules, ask... Can she get soul gems? ”
As he said this, Ivan pointed to Jessica next to him.
The red skull was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Of course... As long as you give your love, no matter who you are... And the person she loves is you! ”
"Hmm."
Ivan made an OK gesture to Jessica, Jessica nodded, grabbed Ivan's arm, and pushed Ivan off the cliff!
...
Shout~!
The abyss, how refreshing the feeling of falling~!
Ivan, who was lying on his back, saw that Jessica and the Red Skull were getting smaller and smaller as they got away...
This is what he and Jessica agreed to follow the rules of the Red Skull... to obtain Soul Gems.
The speed of the fall is getting faster and faster as time passes, and the cliff scenery on both sides has been blurred!
Ivan slowly closed his eyes... Let yourself be in free fall...
Bang!!!
But listen to a crash!
The ground smashed into a big hole... People are fine!
...
Above the cliff, Jessica turned and reached out to the stunned red skeleton below.
"Okay~! Give me gems? ”
