Chapter 374: The Devil's Contract
The demon god Mephistopheles glanced at the parchment in Roger's hand, and then at Roger, and his face suddenly became quite strange.
The reason is very simple, the demon god Mephistopheles said: It can't understand the strange square words on this parchment!
This kind of peculiar square word that you can't forget at first glance! It hasn't even heard of it! How do you want it to read this contract!
During this period of time, Mephistopheles, the demon god who had been quite fragile by Roger's originally quite tough heart, directly lifted many tables in a row in anger in his heart.
How can this be done!
And looking at Mephistopheles, the demon god whose face changed back and forth, Roger just calmly held up the parchment in his hand, as if the person who wrote these words was not him. Seeing that the demon god Mephistopheles was still motionless after a long time, Roger even urged: "Have you finished reading!" After reading it, sign it for me! Everyone's busy! ”
The demon god Mephistopheles, whose face turned from blue to black, and then from black to red, just wanted to have a seizure, but he struck a fierce spirit.
This modus operandi ...... Isn't this the kind of technique that the devils often use?
Well, that's right! It must be like this!
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this was the case, and Mephistopheles, who looked at Roger, couldn't help but become a little strange.
The reason why the devils are called "cunning devils" by mortals is precisely because what they are best at is to use these methods to deceive mortals, and they have to hand over their souls after signing a contract with the devils.
For the devils, the emotional souls of human beings are quite high-class souls, and they are very easy to obtain, so naturally the devils have always focused on human beings.
In contrast, the souls of the elves, although they are the highest spirits, are difficult to obtain. The souls of the dwarves are too paranoid, and they are rarely filled with the negative emotions that the devils like most, so they are naturally not favored by the devils. The orcs' hearts are too simple, or a tendon, and the orcs generally think that the devils are not good things, which makes the devils often unable to do anything to the orcs. The undead have quite a lot of soul resources, but most of them are mutilated, and there are intact goods, who would look down on those mutilated inferior goods. The drow elves in the dungeons are evil and twisted enough, but there are spider queens eyeing them, and the devils can't help it......
So, counting and counting, the devils want to get souls, but in the end they can only stare at humans.
Compared with elves, dwarves, orcs and other races, the abilities of human beings are not outstanding. The reason why human beings can become the overlords of the continent of Elia is precisely because human beings with various strong demands continue to learn from other races.
However, those who have a talent in martial arts or magic can gain a longer life by becoming stronger, and the remaining humans with average talent can't do anything.
There are eight sufferings in life: birth, old age, sickness, death, love and separation, hate for a long time, can't ask for it, can't let go.
In order to become stronger, in order to live longer, in order to obtain the appearance of youth, in order to gain the favor of the opposite sex...... For those things that they can't do anything about, many people will still jump into it desperately, even if they know that the contract in their hands is actually a trap for the devil.
Of course, as time passed, many people learned about the devils' tricks from the priests of the Church of the Gods or the magicians of the Tower of the Nine Rings, and understood that the various patterns on the contracts given by the devils were most likely some kind of writing that used a special way of writing, or simply the hellish or abyssal language commonly used by the devils. Therefore, even if mortals nowadays want to sign a contract with the devils as a last resort, they will keep their eyes open and carefully check whether there are any special patterns on the contract documents.
This makes the devils sigh: these days, even stupid humans are not easy to deceive.
And now, looking at the contract document in his hand, the demon god Mephistopheles felt that Roger must be using the devil's methods to trap it like before!
Subconsciously, the demon god Mephistopheles began to take a closer look at Roger, and Roger was a little inexplicable.
"What are you looking at?" Roger asked, somewhat confused.
"Aren't you really a devil in human skin?" The demon god Mephistopheles said to Roger very seriously, "I always feel that you are more devilish than the devil." ”
This made Roger speechless for a while, but what made Roger even more speechless was that Prince Robin and the others behind him actually nodded in agreement!
"Bastard! Hurry up and sign the contract for me honestly! Roger scolded the Demon God Mephistopheles, and stabbed the Demon God Mephistopheles with the Xuanyuan Sword. After the demon god Mephistopheles let out a series of miserable howls, Roger turned around and drove away Prince Robin and the others who were laughing behind him.
Finally endured the pain coming from his head, looking at the contract in front of him, the demon god Mephistopheles wanted to refuse to sign it, and the Xuanyuan Sword in Roger's hand was dangling in front of its eyes again, making it sweat coldly.
In the end, the demon god Mephistopheles still signed his real name aggrievedly.
There's really no way, its life is still in the hands of the other party.
Roger was a little surprised that the demon god Mephistopheles didn't bargain, and signed this contract honestly in what he thought was quite harsh, which was really a bit strange.
Retrieving the contract document from the demon god Mephistopheles, Roger swept it over the contract document, and only then did he notice with some embarrassment that he had subconsciously used Chinese characters to write the contract.
No way, compared to the years after Roger came to the continent of Elia, Roger's education in his hometown was obviously more deep-rooted. When writing this contract, compared to the common script of the Elia continent, which is not very fluent now, Roger subconsciously used his native language to write this contract.
Of course, Mephistopheles, the demon god who has never been to Earth and has never been taught by Roger, can't understand the Chinese characters written by Roger. However, under the threat of the Xuanyuan Sword, the demon god Mephistopheles did not dare to make any resistance.
"Excuse me! I actually used the wrong word, I actually wanted to write in the lingua franca. Roger shook his head a little embarrassedly, and then signed his name in the other corner of the contract, "However, since you have already signed, it doesn't matter." ”
And at this time, the demon god Mephistopheles was already stupid.
I actually used the wrong words......
I used it wrong......
Misused......
Wrong......
A large series of disorganized words flew through the mind of the demon god Mephistopheles, and suddenly, the body of the demon god Mephistopheles shook, and then a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth. After spraying the blood, the demon god Mephistopheles fell backwards with a limp.
It was directly stunned! (To be continued.) )
