Chapter 970: The Gamble Begins There is revenge

There is probably no one in this world who is more familiar with the power of hellfire possessed by the little spider than Mephisto. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Because the birth of this power itself has a great connection with Mephisto. This is not so much the power of Zatanos, but rather the power that is based on Zatanus and cultivated little by little by Mephisto. Mephisto has spent a lot of effort on this power, so naturally, this power is very important to him, and it can even be said that he is like a right-hand man.

All the while, Mephisto was surprised who had destroyed his Ghost Rider and taken away the power that belonged to the Spirit of Vengeance. He had envisioned many goals, and there was even the existence of Zhou Yi among them. But because there was no way to verify it, he had to put these issues on hold for the time being.

Before he had the ability to deal with Zhou Yi, he obviously didn't have the courage to appear in front of Zhou Yi. So, to some extent, he didn't have much hope of regaining the Spirit of Vengeance. But he didn't expect that things would take a turn for the better at this time.

This made Mephisto want to act almost immediately, but in an instant, he suppressed the urge again.

He was now surrounded by a group of fierce gods. If it was because of his overly urgent actions that the power of the vengeful spirit was exposed to these fierce gods, thus causing them to covet it, then the matter was not something he could control.

So he wisely didn't say anything on the surface, and even continued to talk and laugh with this group of fierce gods. But behind the scenes, he had secretly signaled to his two subordinates, allowing them to follow the clues of the disappearance of the undead to find the past.

For these two guys, Mephisto's requirements are not too high. He only hoped that the two men would find their target and promise not to let him escape from his sight. Then when he frees his hands, he can naturally get back what he lost.

Of course, this was not known to the two people he had ordered out. Each of them had his own idea of Mephisto's order. So, when they crept to the address given by Mephisto, and saw the big ship in the thick fog, the conflict between them also broke out at the right time.

"What do you think we should do? Rush straight up and arrest all the suspects. Or wait on the sidelines until Mephisto comes here to solve his problem in person? ”

Wesker said this, and it could be seen from his expression and his movements that he was already a little impulsive at this moment. And why he behaved like this, Victor, who was watching from the sidelines, quickly came up with a similar answer.

He seemed to see this as an opportunity to show his merits. Essentially, his and Mephisto were just transactional relationships. The relationship seemed good at first, but now it seems that it is not enough. At the very least, it wasn't enough for Wesker, who wanted to extract the most benefits. Because of the potential that Mephisto has shown.

In the beginning, Wesker only regarded Mephisto as a cooperative partner, because he could use his special status to get enough benefits from both parties by being stuck between Mephisto and the Baron, and then increase his strength.

Of course, there is a requirement to do so. That is, the strength of the two is basically balanced. And in between, he must not be clearly biased towards anyone.

This kind of behavior is like walking a tightrope, dangerous, but it can bring enough benefits to yourself. And the most important thing is that it can keep him basically invincible.

But now, the situation is different. Because Mephisto showed a completely different power. He made a deal with a group of terrible evil gods and became part of their alliance. And with such a force, Mephisto's strength undoubtedly upset the delicate balance between him and the baron. has become an absolutely crushing party. And such a situation was something that Wesker had never expected before. So, he had to do something about it at this time.

He had to show Mephisto his worth, and he had to make him realize the benefits of his existence before Mephisto gave up himself. Only then could he make sure that he wouldn't be swept into the garbage heap with this fragile balance shattering.

Of course, doing so would cost him a large part of his benefits. It is even said that he may become Mephisto's slave forever, and there will never be a day to turn over. However, he was able to survive by doing so. And being a living slave does not necessarily mean that there will be a dead freeman who will come to the pleasure. At the very least, if he was given a choice, he would choose to survive. And it is precisely because of this choice that he must complete the things that Mephisto explained to the best.

This is a vote, an important choice related to one's future. And if you want to do this to the best, then Victor's cooperation is extremely important. Will he cooperate, though? Wesker has thought about this as well.

Judging from his identity, he should have made the same choice as himself. Because if he does this well, it can be regarded as a little more weight in front of Mephisto. And this should be especially important for him, who is a subordinate of Mephisto himself. Therefore, he should be on the same front as himself. And that's why Wesker asked those words. He needs Victor's approval, and he needs him and himself to agree on this opinion.

Victor knew this, but whether he would share the same idea as Wesker was a question that needed to be weighed.

On the face of it, he really should have agreed with him. But in essence, he wasn't on Mephisto's side. Behind him was the Baron, the loser that Wesker had identified. And from this alone, it is certain that they are definitely not on the same path.

What's more, there is still a certain festival between Victor and Wesker.

Although neither Wesker nor Mephisto had any indication of this, Victor had already received definite information from the baron. That is, he was betrayed by Wesker. And, even without the baron's explanation, with what Wesker had done for Mephisto in this operation, he could have guessed a similar outcome.

For such a result, Victor naturally gritted his teeth with secret hatred. In other words, any person who, after tasting Mephisto's torturous methods, will have the deepest malice towards the culprit who caused it all. It can be said that Victor at this time definitely had the urge to kill Wesker. But for the sake of the overall situation, as well as the filthy thoughts in my heart. He didn't turn his face directly with Wesker, but responded to him with an indifferent attitude.

"Just do what you want. Why ask me? Can I still stop you? ”

This laissez-faire attitude was not satisfactory to Wesker, but it was within the limits of his acceptance. Of course, he still wants to fight for more.

"Victor, you should know how important this kind of thing is to Mephisto right now. Of course, I'm not threatening you with this, but I want to give you some advice. You should have seen Mephisto's strength, his alliance with those fierce gods will obviously make his strength multiply several times again. Under this premise, any benefit you have caused to him can be returned to several times or even dozens of times. Don't you want to do something about it, even if it's for your own sake? Or are you going to give up even the benefits that are sent to you? ”

Hearing him say this, Victor paused, then slowly turned his head and asked him.

"So what do you want to do?"

"It's easy!" Hearing this, Wesker immediately laughed. "You saw the ship too. I could smell quite a few humans in it, and that seemed to prove one thing. The guy who stole Mephisto's power was on this ship, and he was planning to get out of here safely. It's our chance, isn't it? ”

"Those fierce gods are going to let no one go. We don't need to make a move, we just need to slightly attract these demons in the mist, and let these minions under the fierce gods give us a start. I think I can force the thief out. He is in the light, and we are in the dark. Just find the right moment and give him a thunderous blow. Isn't it all at hand? ”

I have to say that such an idea is really exciting. If Victor really intends to advance and retreat with Wesker, then such a method is indeed a good choice. However, he is clearly not in the same boat as him, and even said that they are still enemies.

And it was precisely because he was an enemy that Viktor replied to Wesker with a mocking smile on his face under the iron mask.

"Not a bad idea, I'm okay with it in principle. But in the end, it is up to me to do the retribution. ”

This statement is a disguise, after all, it is accepted plainly, and it is easy to arouse suspicion without even mentioning a condition. So Victor deliberately made such a request. As for this request, Wesker thought about it for a moment and nodded.

"Yes, but you have to discuss it with me before you report it."

"Happy cooperation, I'll be working with you in secret."

Given a brief reply, Victor disappeared into the mist. Looking at the direction in which he disappeared, Wesker took a deep breath and immediately strode in the direction of the ship.

His gamble began. But he probably couldn't have imagined anything. This gamble was a scam from the beginning. (To be continued.) )
