Facing the Ancient One, who still had a smile on the corner of his mouth, Johnny Blazer felt bitter in his mouth.

As the Ghost Rider himself, his perception of the soul is stronger than that of others, and in Johnny's perception, if the soul that he and Zatanos have just begun to merge is a small river, then the mysterious woman in front of him is a boundless sea, and she can't raise any thoughts of confrontation at all.

Because this kind of thinking is itself a provocation to this inhuman force.

Zatanos's blue flame quickly ignited on Johnny's body, a kind of instinctive defense, Johnny turned into the flame skeleton of Ghost Rider, but he didn't dare to make the slightest movement, he could only shake the skull's head wildly, and replied in that hoarse voice,

"No... I was just... He's going to run!"

The Evil Ghost Knight pointed to Mephisto behind the Ancient One, the Great Demon King had secretly opened a portal when the small half of his body was torn off, and wanted to slip away, but the Ancient One didn't care, she just waved her hand casually,

"Don't worry, he can't escape!"

"Bang"

Five golden pillars of light fell from the sky and smashed on Mephisto's limbs and chest like a heavy hammer, the great demon king-level creatures could only barely dodge one of them, and the remaining four pillars of light imprisoned his body in place, like a cage of light, the ancient one's fingers flicked in the air, and the three souls appeared in the palm of her hand, she looked at Cyber and Johnny, and gave the soul to them.

"Only those who have a home can move forward... Although you almost ruined all this, it is not unforgivable for positive reasons. ”

The Ancient One's voice sounded directly in the hearts of Cyber and Johnny, Johnny held his father's soul in both hands and bowed respectfully to the Ancient One, who waved his hand at him,

"Go, this poor man's soul can only last 12 hours in this world, and then he will return to heaven and earth, and take him to see what he wants to see. ”

The Supreme Mage's gaze fell on Johnny's face, her expression became serious, and she whispered,

"As one of the sources of the easy pact with the devil that triggered all this, I can't give your soul back to you so easily, cause and effect must be balanced... Johnny Blazer, you need to use your power well, this country harbors too many evil spirits that do not belong to this world, punish 999 evil spirits, this is your path of atonement, the Greenwich Village Sanctuary in Manhattan, that will be the end of this road. ”

She breathed a sigh of relief,

"So, do you accept this difficult path? Johnny Blazer?"

Johnny hesitated, he looked up at the serious Ancient One Mage, he scratched his head,

"Well, master, can't I stop until I'm done with this? You know, my girlfriend has a bad temper... It's pretty sticky. ”

Cyber pushed Johnny hard, this guy is really, dare to say anything, doesn't he know how terrible a woman who has been single for 1,000 years is?

"Go and watch the scenery with your dead ghost daddy, the ancient mage means, you can complete this for as long as you want, even if you take time to have a baby in between, you idiot. ”

But then, Cyber's expression became serious, "But I advise you to hurry as soon as possible, it is about the outcome of the long struggle between your soul and the spirit of vengeance, you know... It's a terrible thing that you have a madman in you. ”

Johnny nodded as well, and he saluted the Ancient One again, then turned to leave, and after a few steps, he called out Cyber's name,

"Cyber... I hate you, really... You've messed up almost everything, but I'm grateful to you again that you made me see a better ending, so we're friends, right?"

Cyber gestured a middle finger at him, and Johnny rode on his bike, shouting,

"When you need me, just look for me, you know how to contact me... I owe you my life, and I'll pay it back to you!"

After saying that, blue flames rose into the sky, and the devil's locomotive bloomed with a blue halo, rushing out of the desert at a speed far beyond any means of transportation in the world, and after 10 years, he met his father again, although it was only 12 hours, but he would cherish every minute.

Then start a new life, and from then on... No regrets.

"Congratulations, you've got another friend, Cyber. ”

Master Gu Yi said in Chinese, "You're probably telling yourself again that you're doing a good deed, right?"

Cyber didn't answer, and in fact he didn't know how to answer, he always felt a little restrained when facing this big man of the same skin color, and probably this was the price of being seen through the secret.

"Don't be so nervous, parallel worlds are a very common thing in my eyes. ”

Gu Yi turned to Mephisto with her hands behind her back, and she said with a hint of laughter, "In a certain parallel world, all of us even exist in the form of comics, and I am defined as an old-fashioned old Chinese witch, but that's nothing, so I won't hold on to your origins, because you will not have an impact on this world at that time..."

Hearing this, Cyber couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but the next moment, Gu Yi's voice became serious again,

"But it's different now, you've had the audacity to change the thread of destiny you've had to make an impact on the world! You've nearly ruined 1,000 years of my efforts... Say, 'How shall I punish you?'

A heavy and unimaginable pressure appeared on Cyber's shoulders, as if the whole world was pressing on him, and in less than 2 seconds, his bones made a clicking sound, but Cyber did not lower his head because of this, on the contrary, under this pressure, his head was raised high.

Maybe it was the power of the ancient one that triggered his resistance, maybe it was some kind of spiritual stubbornness, in short, he opened his mouth and said with difficulty,

"Anyone who... In order to survive, and have to do anything... None of them can be called... Evil! I... Don't think, I... Wrong!"

"Oh?"

The Ancient One looked at Cyber with interest who continued to hold on under the pressure, she stretched out her finger and swiped it in the air, and finally she snapped her fingers, and all the pressure on Cyber dissipated at this moment, and he himself fell to the ground because of the dissipation of this power, but quickly got up again.

"You know what? Cyber, I was surprised when Charles asked me to let you go to Kama Taj to heal your body. ”

The Ancient One's left hand rested on the pillar of light that bound Mephisto, and she looked at Cyber,

"You probably don't understand what that means for Charles... 37 years ago, after Charles and Eric and the others joined forces to defeat the world's first mutant Apocalypse, ending the riots he caused, I made a promise to them that Charles could go to Kama Taj and I would fix his legs for him, but unless it was the chosen one, everyone could only enter there once in their lifetime... So..."

"He's for me... Gave up that chance?"

At this moment, Cyber himself didn't know how to evaluate Professor Charles's behavior, although he had broken up because of different ideas, but at this moment, he had to admit his feelings, this good old man was really... It's simply indescribably kind.

He raised his head, looked at the Ancient One Mage, and said firmly,

"No, Mage, I don't need to! Please give this opportunity back to Professor Charles! I can find Mephisto, I can find the bar out of bounds, and I can find Kama Taj too!"

"Oh?"

The ancient one's very beautiful eyebrows were raised, and she said, "If you're guilty, you don't have to, Charles is voluntary after all, and as long as you nod, you'll be in Kama Taj in the next second, if you have to look for it yourself... This can take many years. ”

"Kama Taj is a shrine embodied in reality, it has a sense of self, and if it doesn't accept you, you may not be able to enter it for the rest of your life..."

She glanced at Cyber's body, "You have 19 months left to live... Are you sure you want to do that?"

"I'm sure!"

Cyber replied loudly, "Not because of guilt, not because of pride... I'm a person who doesn't like to owe favors to others... The hardest thing in the world is human favor!"

"Well, okay. ”

Ancient Face nodded calmly, her left hand flicked, and the pillar of light that bound Mephisto disappeared, she didn't look at Cyber again, turned around and walked into the complex and mysterious golden pattern behind her, and Mephisto, whose body had been fully restored, followed behind Ancient One with a stiff posture, and disappeared into the golden pattern step by step.

"Well, this is your way to atonement... Because of your audacity, Cyber Hawke, Kama Taj in the East, 19 months, hoping you will find a way to get there, time is running out for you, but... I hope you understand one thing... Actually, I'm not resistant to a future that becomes chaotic, so..."

"Keep doing what you have to do! let me see what kind of change you can bring to this world from another world..."

At this moment, the voice of the ancient one disappeared between heaven and earth, and a dark red scroll fell from the sky, accurately falling into Cyber's hand, he looked left and right, and after confirming that the ancient one left, he breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground.

His back was soaked, and he couldn't help it, and he had to deal with it with all his energy in the face of what was likely to be the strongest woman in the world.

But at the moment when he was completely relaxed, the voice of the ancient one sounded in his ears again,

"Also, if you dare to slander me in your mind next time that I am a 1,000-year-old woman... I'll throw you into the dark space... One last word of caution, use your eyes wisely. ”

Cyber was startled, and hurriedly put his hands on his head, praying to the sky, and muttering a wordful apology in his mouth, five minutes, ten minutes, until fifteen minutes, he maintained that position, because he didn't know if the ancient one was really gone.

Until another absolutely indecent voice appeared in Cyber's ear,

"Hey, look who this is! Isn't this Mr. Cyber, the savior of Gotham? What are you doing here? This is... Is this a special prayer posture?"

The clown who ran out of nowhere looked at Cyber's actions curiously, and after a few seconds, he also sat on the ground, put his hands together like Cyber, and put them above his head and shook them continuously, and while shaking, he said,

"I just ran out of hell, Mephisto is missing, the place is in a mess now, Satan's forces have begun to attack Mephisto's territory, this gives me a chance, yes... Did you get anything?"

Cyber looked left and right, and threw the St. Vangonza contract in his hand to the clown, and he said very dissatisfied,

"How do you know this thing is going to be in my hands? And the way you used to send messages awful, you know?"

Let's go back to the scene where Cyber first goes to the Bar of the Border to meet Mephisto, where the Joker reaches out and pats Cyber on the shoulder, leaving a pitch-black handprint that looks like it has been ignited by a soul fire, but underneath that handprint is a gadget written in a piece of paper as thin as a cicada's wing.

There is only one sentence on it, "Do you want your relatives and friends to never die?" When necessary, I'll go to your ---Joker from Gotham"

Yes, that's what makes Cyber stay in St. Van Gonza, and he guesses that the clown will definitely appear.

Sure enough, he appeared, and the clown took the contract of St. Van Gonza and stuffed it into his trademark dirty suit, his face was still painted with white oil paint and blush, and even the messy hair on his head and the scar on the corner of his mouth did not change, he glanced at Cyber, reached out and ruffled his hair, and whispered,

"I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear?"
