Chapter 55: The Gentleman's Agreement
"Heim Underworld? …… What exactly is your idea? Mephisto asked, frowning.
"Isn't it good, I think that place is more suitable for you than the earth, it is the place where the soul returns, and the number of evil spirits contained in it is not as good as hell, it is estimated that it is considerable." Tesca said.
The Heim Underworld, the legendary land of the cold and the dead, a realm that only the dead can reach. At the same time, this place is also the place where Thor's sister, Hela, the goddess of death, was banished.
Hela is Odin's eldest daughter, the strongest female villain in Marvel who has truly inherited most of Odin's divine power. Others are invincible in my BGM, but she is invincible as long as she is in Asgard.
Exiled for a thousand years, Hela resents Odin and waits for revenge.
Asgard's major crisis, Ragnarok, can basically be said to be caused by Hela, forcing Thor to destroy Asgard in the end.
Texka brought up this place, naturally, to bring disaster to the east. Aren't you planning to expand hell, go and fight Hela. As for whether Mephisto will be fooled, Tesca thought to himself, this product was pulled by himself with mod, and he should have nothing to do with Hela in the movie universe, right?
It's a fool like you who doesn't know the inside story and thinks you're smart!
Mephisto is not a fool, as a devil monarch who is older than Odin's grandfather, can Hela still know about the affair with the Asgardian royal family? You kid thinks that you can fool Hell into fighting with the Sea of the Dead, and you look down on me too much.
"Wait, this kid looks like he's only a thousand years old, maybe he really doesn't know who Heim is in the underworld. After all, Odin kept the scandal out of his family and hid Hela's affairs deep enough. That is, he had no idea that Hela was simply trying to get me to move my target from Earth to the underworld? ”
Mephisto's eyes lit up, this verbal promise was very ethereal, but as long as Tesca did not know the truth contained in the underworld, Mephisto felt that he could have countless ways to lure this product to sell his life, and then help him count the money.
The devil likes to pit the most, this kind of opponent who doesn't know anything but pretends to be smart!
"Okay, that's a suggestion, I'm okay with that. But you're willing to help me, what do you want? ”
Mephisto said this, but in his heart he thought: "If I don't kill you this time, I will live for hundreds of millions of years in vain." ”
Teska smiled as well, and said with a non-smirk, "My request is very simple, you just need to give me vampire ashes." ”
Things are almost settled, and the specific situation is roughly like this (tongue twister warning ahead): Tesca thinks that Mephisto doesn't know about Hela and tricks him to fight Hela, while Mephisto actually knows Hela, but thinks that Tesca doesn't know Hela, so he plans to find a way to trick Tesca into going against Hela.
Texca didn't know that Mephisto knew about Hela and thought he didn't know Hela, so he thought his plan to drive the wolf had succeeded. Mephisto doesn't know that Texca actually knows Hela, so he thinks he can use this to trap Texka in the future.
To sum up: I feel like I've won, and it's probably a win-win.
"In that case, let's sign a contract. You helped me transform some of the hellish in the Heim Underworld, and I found you Vampire Ashes. ”
"No, no, no, it's you who give me vampire ashes first, and then I'll help you go to the Heim Underworld to do environmental pollution. Didn't you do the same when you fooled this person, first cured his father's illness, and then let him help you die. Tesca said.
"That's no problem, I've always been very generous, let's sign the contract." Mephisto is very talkative.
Sylvie gently tugged at the corner of Ratska's coat from behind, and motioned with her eyes to her master not to sign it. Everyone knows that the devil is a good hand at playing with contracts, and although they claim to abide by the terms of the contract, all kinds of traps can trap people unwanted.
Watching Johnny's father, he just had cancer, and the next day the show hung up. This cancer can live for several years, and it is clear that he was pit with a bloody face, and as a result, Johnny still has to be controlled by Mephisto.
Tesca responded to the little maid with a "don't worry" look, and then said to Mephisto: "What kind of contract to sign, a person like me, a spit and a nail, can still lie to you?" Are you doubting the integrity of my thunderous roar? This is a gentleman's agreement, if you want me to sign it, you can only sign a life and death certificate, and we will not die! ”
Mephisto even turned green with anger when he heard this, who agreed with you gentleman, Lao Tzu is the devil! I've never seen such a shameless Asgardian, what race are you a half-breed?!
Talking loudly, as soon as it is time to repay the debt, quit gambling in Baidu, brother, this kind of person Mephisto has seen hundreds of millions. The devil knows that people's hearts are unpredictable, so he especially respects the spirit of the contract, and if you don't sign the contract, the devil will make a deal with you.
But in the face of a guy like Tesca, Mephisto can't help it, who can't make him move now, he really can't flip the table and turn his face.
If Texca threw him here and closed the door of the stone cairn, Mephisto would either spend three or five years dissipating the spatial energy and then trouble Texca, or throw this clone away and not recondense one.
Either way, it wouldn't take much time, Tezka would have returned to Asgard by then, and Mephisto wasn't old enough to go to war with Odin for Texca.
So what now? If you don't agree, it seems that you really lose everything.
Seeing Mephisto's tangled appearance, the two spectators next to him had different expressions, Sylvie was both worried and worshipped, and the master of the pact with the devil was so cool; Johnny looked helpless, and he wanted to keep his ears shut from these reactionary statements, for fear that he would be silenced for knowing too much.
After thinking about it, Mephisto still had confidence in himself. After living for so many years, Mephisto has not encountered setbacks, but as long as he is given a chance, he can win back with interest.
It's like opening a casino and not afraid that you will win 30 or 50 million, as long as you are willing to continue gambling, you will never be able to win the banker. Mephisto felt that he could bear with it this time, and verbally agreed to Texca's cooperation plan.
There was another bargain, and in the end, the verbal agreement was that Telska would help Mephisto create another small town of St. Van Gonza in the Heim Underworld, so that Mephisto could come in person. The specific number of evil spirits, the size of the range, and even the surrounding terrain are all required.
These trivial requests Texca agreed to one by one, but the most critical time to do things Texca will never let go, anyway, in Texca's lifetime, don't ask for a long time, ask if you don't believe me.
This promise is like a "five-yuan coupon for buying a house", which seems to be able to take advantage of a little cheap, but in fact it is disgusting.
If Mephisto hadn't felt that he must have lived longer than Texca, he would rather blow himself up than agree. The elder is indeed much more tolerant of time than Texca's young man.
And Mephisto is not stupid enough to directly advance his salary, just tell Texca's vampires where they may exist, and if they want ashes, blood, or other vampire bits and pieces, find them yourself.
As soon as Tezka left the stone mound with Sylvie's front foot, the effect of stabilizing the space had just waned, and Mephisto did not hesitate to spend a lot of energy tearing the space back to hell. This time he lost a lot of money, and he had to think carefully about how to pit Tesca to death, otherwise where would his old face go.
"Looking for vampires, huh? Those little ones may not be your match, but I can give them a hand. Mephisto said to himself with pity.
