Beneath the Pacific Ocean, in the deep darkness of the sea, a huge submarine is silently sneaking like a ghost of the depths, almost unknown to anyone in this world. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

There is hardly a crew on this submarine, and its operation is entirely dependent on automated machinery and integrated systems. This technological advancement adds a bit of emptiness and silence to this submarine, especially when it runs silently in the dark depths of the sea, making it seem more and more terrifying and eerie, like a real ghost ship.

Of course, this isn't really a ghost ship. Because on top of this huge submarine, there is also the presence of this passenger. At this moment, in the command room of the submarine, a dark-haired man turned off the screen in front of him with a little tiredness, and at the same time rubbed his eyebrows a little uncomfortably.

And just as he began to do this, a pair of slender and slender hands suddenly reached out from behind his back, and then, in his place, began to gently rub his eyebrows, temples, and everything that could relax.

The owner of the hands complained as he thought softly about the dark-haired man.

"Your Excellency, you should take care of your rest. After all, you've just recovered from hibernation. ”

"I've been dormant for almost seventy years. Alexia, I don't want to waste my precious time on this senseless act anymore. ”

Breaking free of the woman's hands, which were still moving seriously, the black-haired man stood up tremblingly under the woman's support. And at this time, his true appearance was revealed.

This is an Asian male who looks a little thin. The grade is not small, and the shape is skinny. However, his appearance is quite handsome, especially his scorching, burning eyes, which make him add a bit of charm and momentum that only a few people have!

"Leohhard, it's for your body's sake." The woman holding the man sighed, and a look of helplessness and distress began to appear on her beautiful face that did not look like a human being. "Even if it's for your plans, you should take care of your current body. If you continue like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive until your plan succeeds. ”

"Don't worry about that, I have a plan, and everything is going according to my expectations." The man's brow furrowed as he spoke, but this made his face suddenly appear with a look of majesty. "And, Alexia. Don't call me Leohard, my current name is Smith, Smith. Week! ”

"Yes, Smith. I mean, Smith. Mr. Zhou! ”

The woman's face began to show some obvious teasing. But suddenly, a voice interjected made all the expressions on her face snap back.

"Smith. Zhou, Smith. Mr. Zhou, that's a bit of a magical name, isn't it? ”

The old man's voice suddenly sounded from the empty command room, and at this time, the thin black-haired man suddenly grabbed the somewhat nervous woman, dragged her behind him, and then said coldly to the empty command room.

"Now that you're here, don't hide your head and show your tail anymore. Mephisto! Why, in front of me, are you still going to play such a trick that is not in the flow? ”

"Of course not! Smith. Mr. Zhou. "A puff of billowing black smoke suddenly appeared in the empty place, and in the midst of this black smoke a well-dressed gentleman with a staff of civilization in his hand appeared, and smiled strangely at the thin man." Or rather, Leo Harder. Your Excellency Baron Einzbelen! Or Paracelsus...... I have to say that every time I see you, I can't help but be amazed! ”

"Surprise, that's a ridiculous question. If I was surprised, shouldn't I be even more surprised when I talked to a living devil face to face? ”

was exposed to his previous identities, claiming to be Smith. Zhou, the emaciated man who was actually the ruler of Hydra, Baron Einzbelen, smiled and asked sharply.

Hearing him say this, Mephisto shook his head and smiled at him.

"It's different, it's not the same at all. How can I say it, maybe I should start with all the wonder in my heart. ”

"One of the greatest magicians in human history, Paracelsus, a man believed to hold the elixir of immortality. A guy who is considered to be something that shouldn't exist, or should be a liar. According to reality, this man should have died in 1541, but in reality, he did not die. Instead, just like the legend, he has survived and stood in front of me alive, as another person! ”

"This was my first surprise, because if this person was really the same Paracelsus I knew. Then he obviously got a power that humans shouldn't have, that is, the legendary power of immortality. It is obviously a miracle to acquire a power that only belongs to gods or demons in the form of a mortal, a real miracle. ”

At this point, the veteran Great Devil paused fiercely on the staff of civilization in his hand, and continued with an increasingly vicious smile.

"And what makes me even more incredible is that this miracle is not a continuation of the body, but an even more incredible power, a continuation of the soul. As a magician, an being watched by both God and the devil, he transcended his soul and returned to this world again and again in the form of reincarnation under the most incredible circumstances. And became Leo Hard. Einzbelen, or Smith in front of you. Week. He broke the order, broke the rules, and the funny thing is that none of us knows. Neither God's fool nor we, the devils, noticed all this. This is the second thing that surprises me. ”

"And the third thing that amazes me is your plan. Such a weak body, but with such great ambitions. Isn't it surprising that this kind of existence is only a humble mortal? ”

"Mortal?" Hearing this, a somewhat sarcastic smile suddenly appeared on the baron's face. He stared at the great devil in front of him with his burning eyes, and asked him rhetorically as a mortal without losing the slightest moment. "Why, Mephisto, do you look down on mortals?"

"Of course!" Hearing this, Mephisto tugged at the corners of his mouth and admitted bluntly. "Mortals are greedy, stupid, ignorant, and smell like the mud of the earth. They don't have any value at all, except that their souls still have some value. Why, don't you think so? ”

"Mortals are humble, but they are not as lowly as you think, Mephisto." The scorching eyes and cold words gave the baron an indescribable momentum, as tall and sharp as an iceberg, awe-inspiring and powerful. For a while, it was so depressed that Mephisto became a little narrow.

"Human beings are the most amazing beings in the world, and although they are humble, they are also noble beyond your imagination. They may be as low as dust, but there is always something nobler than the stars. That's not something you can qualify, and it's not something you can assert. Humans are not your playthings, Mephisto, and you are not in any position to judge them. ”

"How dare you speak to me like that. Or, Baron, do you think you're no longer a mortal? ”

With a heavy slam on the staff of civilization in his hand, the billowing black smoke immediately transformed into an endless ghostly shadow, and with a crazy wail, it rushed towards the emaciated baron. However, this terrible situation can only stop in front of the baron forever.

At the baron's feet, a magical blue light stretched out in the blink of an eye, erecting a crystalline barrier in front of him, keeping all the souls out of the air.

Despite the endless black smoke billowing from Mephisto's body, it almost buried his figure like an abyss, leaving only a pair of eyes glowing with scarlet. However, his strength just can't get out of this thunder pool. His anger could not hurt the Baron or those around him in the slightest. And this made Mephisto's shadow let out a terrifying roar.

However, the roar did not shake the baron's will, he just calmly maintained the barrier in front of him, and then said to Mephisto casually.

"What, are you going to tear your face with me? Or are you not going to work with me and continue to deal with that being? ”

As soon as these words came out, Mephisto's shadow let out another indignant howl. However, in the blink of an eye, the billowing black smoke seemed to be alive and returned to the deep darkness of the interior. And when Mephisto's appearance of the old gentleman reappeared before the baron's eyes, there was no trace of anger on his face.

"Let's talk about cooperation, Lord Baron. I think it's very urgent for you and for me, isn't it? ”

"Of course!" Silently retracting his barrier, the baron asked Mephisto as if nothing had happened. "So, since you mentioned cooperation, I'd like to know, has your arrangement been completed?"

"Of course!" Thinking of his own arrangement, even if he was as old as Mephisto, he couldn't help but show admiration and excitement. "It's a big deal I've never done before, but I've done it and just wait for that day to come. It's just, I'm wondering, what are you going to use to activate my arrangement? ”

"Mortal!"

After a moment of silence, the baron calmly opened his mouth and gave his answer.

"The humblest and greatest being. Only such existence can achieve the best results, isn't it? ”

"Of course!" Nodding in agreement, Mephisto looked playfully at the man in front of him before speaking. "I'm starting to feel like you're not mortal anymore. I'm serious! ”

"No!" He was given an unequivocal answer. "I am human, and always will be!"
