Seeing Johnny's insistence on saving his girlfriend, the old man sighed, picked up the shovel beside him, and smashed the shovel head with a bang.

Johnny realized that the shovel handle was hollow.

The old man guarding the tomb pulled out a thin scroll from it: "Saint Van Gonza Pact." ”

Johnny reached for it.

The old man dodged his hand: "Can I trust you?" ”

Johnny was silent for a moment: "They took my soul, but they couldn't control my heart. ”

The old man laughed: "Anyone who has the courage to sell his soul for love has the power to change the world. Remember what you say! ”

As he spoke, he handed the scroll to Johnny.

Johnny results scroll: "Uh, where is St. Van Gonza?" ”

Old man: "About 200 kilometers southwest, we have to set off quickly." As he spoke, he walked out of the cemetery.

Johnny flipped the scroll and followed the old man's footsteps: "We? ”

The old man walked to the way to the cemetery, put his fingers in his mouth and whistled crisply.

Not far away, there was a sudden neighing of horses, and the horses' hooves clattered on the ground, and they quickly approached the two.

A black steed suddenly came out of the misty night, ran briskly until the old man's face stopped, and rubbed the old man with his big head affectionately.

The old man turned over and got on his horse: "I think I can ride it one last time." ”

As he spoke, a flame erupted from his head, spreading downward.

A skeleton knight appears in front of Johnny.

Johnny looked at this scene in amazement, and suddenly realized: "Carter Sray? ”

The Skeleton Knight nodded slightly.

Luke wasn't too surprised.

Carter Sray is the last Evil Ghost Knight mentioned by the old man himself.

In order to prevent Mephisto from obtaining the powerful St. Van Gonza Contract, Carter Slay rebelled, fled with the contract and disappeared without a trace.

Well, from this point of view, Mephisto is looking for Ghost Rider is not very obedient.

But on the other hand, Ghost Rider also has the term "qualified".

If anyone could wield the power of Ghost Rider, Mephisto wouldn't have to be selective about those who received it.

And for those who have obtained this power, it will certainly not be easy for Mephisto to control them.

Johnny looked at the horse a little suspiciously: "It, can it keep up?" ”

Carter Sleigh's skull grinned as if he were smiling, and the flames on his body suddenly spread to the sitting black horse.

The black horse, which was not surprising, had flames on all four hooves and eyes, spewed sparks from his nostrils and mouth, shaved his hooves a few times, and tilted his head, as if he was despising Johnny's question.

Johnny: "...... Well, let's go. As he spoke, flames rose all over his body, and he became a ghost knight.

The next moment, the rumbling engine sounded, mixed with the crisp sound of horses' hooves, and a cart and horse galloped away.

Luke sighed, "You guys play with me." ”

These two guys can transform themselves, and they can use that kind of flame to change the nature of the mount, which is really cheating.

Whether it is a dark horse or a retro motorcycle, after being possessed by the flames, it immediately becomes a super means of transportation, and the speed exceeds 300 kilometers per hour in a short time.

And the two guys still went directly to the west in the field, and did not take the road at all.

It is difficult for the Triumph motorcycle to drive at this speed on the highway, Luke snorted, put away the motorcycle, released a small plane in the clearing, and muttered, "I can't run, I don't need to fly." ”

Above the night sky, a line of fire and a string of flame hoofprints could be seen on the ground in the distance, and he would not chase these two guys.

But looking at the two people in front of him, especially the handsome skeletal horse, Luke was a little red-eyed, but he could only salivate at the cart and horse below.

Secondly, although the Ghost Rider transformation is too high-profile, it can't resist that it is indeed handsome, and it can also hide its identity.

Ghost Rider is a skeleton after it appears, and it's not easy for this thing to see its size.

When Luke was bored, he even had Johnny's skull face-restored, but it wasn't Johnny himself, but another unfamiliar man's face.

Obviously, this skeleton of Ghost Rider is not Johnny.

However, Johnny has just completed his transformation in the detention room, and the role of hiding his identity is no longer possible, and he is blind to such a good vest.

On the other hand, Ghost Rider was transformed from an evil spirit given by Mephisto.

Luke never thought of selling his soul.

Even if Mephisto was willing to sign a contract with him, Luke couldn't sell his soul.

Before being beaten back to hell by the system to play with mud, this big guy inadvertently mentioned that Luke's soul had signed a contract with "people".

Now that I think about it, he should be referring to the system.

In the same way, the system, which is usually never active, will stop any attempt to invade its "territory" (refusing to link to the psychic energy), and also actively attack Mephisto.

Conversely, as long as the enemy does not do anything to Luke's soul and spirit, the system will not react in any way.

In this way, Luke, who was pondering in the air, followed the two evil spirit riders below for more than twenty minutes and arrived at the ruins of the small town of St. Van Gonza.

Looking at the dark wreckage of the village not far away, the flames on Cartershre's body were extinguished, and he returned to his old appearance: "I'll send you here." ”

Johnny was a little stunned: "You, not with me?" ”

He also thought that Carter Sray came with him to help save people, so how could he accompany him for a while and it would be over?

Carter Slay was helpless: "I'm too old, and the energy of the Ghost Rider is almost exhausted, and sending you here is just fulfilling my wish." ”

Johnny: "What's your wish?" ”

Carter Sray: "I want to be sure that there are people who will continue to fight demons after I die. ”

He threw a Winchester shotgun on horseback: "Go ahead, kid. ”

Johnny took the gun, and Carter Shray pulled the reins, and the black horse under his crotch sighed, and his front hooves spun in place, turned the horse's head, and walked on the way he came.

One man and one horse quickly disappeared into the thick night.

Johnny was silent.

Carter Shray was a ghost rider one hundred and fifty years ago, and he has survived until now because of the energy of the ghost rider to support his old body.

But this support is limited and not enough to make people immortal.

At this moment, Carter Slay handed over the St. Van Gonza Contract, which had been guarded for more than a hundred years, to Johnny.

This means that the only concern and responsibility he has is in the hands of Johnny, a new generation of Ghost Rider.

After living for nearly two hundred years, he has nothing to be nostalgic about, and accompanying Johnny to complete this last journey also means that the story of his former Ghost Rider is completely over.

After that, only Johnny, the new knight, will go alone.

Johnny watched Cartershray disappear into a small dirt slope before putting away his melancholy and continuing towards the ruins of St. Van Gonza.
