16. Meet again

Time passes slowly, every second, every minute, every hour, it seems to flow slowly in your fingertips, so fast that you can't catch it.

For ordinary people, a day is a day, there is no special meaning, and for people in specific circumstances, the passage of this day is equivalent to the end of life.

"Bell"

The elevator door opened again, and Agent Ward, who was in a hurry, walked into the dark basement with his team, he still hadn't forgotten the shattered glint of hope in the stupid boy's eyes yesterday, it wasn't the first time he had ruined a person's hope, but it was definitely the first time he had ruined a person's will so easily, and that feeling made him feel like he had never experienced it before.

It turns out that he can also control the fate of a person ... So he began to understand why those traditional villains, knowing that the longer they dragged on, the easier it would be to fail in their plans, but they would still stick to the deadline of the event, maybe they were also to see their opponent's will be destroyed little by little.

It was a psychological pleasure.

So today, as soon as the 24-hour time came, Ward showed up here on time to collect his last enjoyment, and he wanted to see what that silly boy who had struggled with for 24 hours would be in the end.

And when he saw Billy Batson now, he wasn't disappointed, because this stupid boy had gone crazy.

He knelt earnestly in the cramped cage, his cloak pouring out of his cloak of prayer toward a strange, irregular circle of magic, words in his mouth, just like the cultists Ward had seen more than once in his long career as a secret agent.

And even if Ward didn't study the occult in depth, he could see that this circle was useless, because... No sacrifices!

In fact, in this small space, Billy the Kid really couldn't find any sacrifices.

"Hey, kid, it's time. ”

Ward stood outside the cage with his hands behind his back and said in a gripper's tone, "No. 114, it's your turn to be the test specimen today." ”

He looked left and right, leaned down, and deliberately lowered his voice:

"Listen to me, only 1 out of 10 people yesterday survived, and the only one left is on the verge of collapse, he was a gangster before, and he saw much more blood than you, but he still can't bear that pain, do you think... Can you?"

Every time Ward said a word, the body of Billy the Kid who was kneeling on the ground trembled, until finally, it was like a sifting chaff, Ward clearly saw his curled fist, he knew that this stupid boy was on the verge of collapse, like a person standing on the edge of a cliff, just a gentle push, he would fall into the bottomless abyss.

And this spread of desperation made Ward feel a kind of trembling, he turned his head to look at the others in the basement, no one dared to speak, no one even dared to look up at him, this is the power of fear, it doesn't need a sound, it is enough to shock people's hearts.

"Alright, the time is up, let's go, meet your fate. ”

Ward took a step back, he waved his hand, and the agent behind him stepped forward, opened the door of the cage, grabbed Billy's arm left and right, and pulled him out of the blood-stained cage, Billy was dragged forward by them like a walking corpse, he looked at the unresponsive circle, he shouted frantically:

"No! it shouldn't be like this! I've done everything you said, why don't you respond to me!why!!"

"Don't be stupid!"

Ward suddenly felt that this dying struggle had ruined the atmosphere of the spread of fear, and he slapped Billy in the face and said in a deep voice, "That thing you drew is nothing, and if I were the object of your prayers, I wouldn't have responded to you... You don't even have a little sacrifice, do you think those devils are crazy? But you don't have sacrifices... It's silly. ”

"Sacrifices?"

Billy the Kid was like a thunderbolt, and the moment he was dragged into the elevator, he didn't know where the strength came from, and he broke free from the agent on the left, and shouted:

"I give you everything I have! Saber Hawke, please, please save me!"

"What do you call him!!"

Ward, the moment he heard the name that made his liver tremble, turned his head like a beast, grabbed Billy the Boy by the neck, and lifted him off the ground, his face had never been so hideous, and he cried out:

"Who the hell are you summoning!!"

"Boom"

The scorching flames burst through the cage behind Ward, sweeping away all the darkness and gloom of the entire basement, and the surrounding prisoners who were already completely frightened were caught in the fire, and a few unlucky ones had lost their breath before the flames could dissipate.

Ward's movements stiffened, and his neck slowly turned behind him like a rusty gear.

"Hey!"

A deep voice sounded behind him:

"Put down that kid, take out those doglegs around you, and get out!"

"Puff"

Two daggers slid out of Ward's cuffs, one left and one right, stabbed into the necks of the two agents in front of him who had just raised their weapons, blood splattered, Ward's body began to sway, he was trembling, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, Billy Bassent, who was slumped on the ground, could see very clearly, this devil-like guy, he was afraid, very afraid.

He must have known the origin of the guy behind him with the huge bloody head.

Cyber threw the head of the abyssal demon in his hand to the ground, sat on it, the Tenggu sword on his lap, his entire bare chest sliced open by the black light, but it was healing rapidly, it was clear that he had just returned from a frantic battle.

Seeing Ward kill the two agents neatly, he was somewhat surprised, but this kind of little person could no longer arouse his interest, coupled with the crazy pursuit of Lucifer, who had just gotten rid of his anger, he was very tired now, so he waved his hand, and the light and shadow of the flames completely closed at this moment:

"! you're not going to be lucky next time. ”

"Well... Ok thanks. ”

Ward wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and stepped into the elevator, and at the moment when he breathed a sigh of relief, a cold light flashed, and the blood-stained dagger stabbed into his stomach from below.

He looked down in disbelief and saw Billy the Kid's hateful eyes, and the dagger he held in his hand that had just been drawn from the two corpses.

"He let you go... I won't let it go! This is to pay you back for the nine people from yesterday!"

Billy Kid gritted his teeth, and with only a brute force, he pulled the dagger in his hand outward, and Ward's outstretched fist completely lost its power at this moment.

"Dangchang"

Billy's dagger slammed to the ground, and he gasped and took two steps back, the joy of escaping death and the urge to kill the man he had just killed made his legs limp again, and he finally fell to the ground.

"Wow, a funny boy. ”

Sim's weak voice sounded in Cyber's heart, and Cyber also looked at the scene in front of him with interest, he stretched out his hand, and with a flick, Ward's soul was encased in a soul stone, which was pale yellow, which was said to be in hell, representing the color of fear.

"It was good luck to meet two playful souls today. ”

Cyber stood up, the wound on his body was still completely recovered, he stretched out his hand, and the venom that had been hit hard by the fallen black fire hissed, jumped up from the head of the abyss demon that had gnawed only bones, covering his body, and in an instant, a lifelike black dress reappeared, Cyber carried the ancient sword, strolled to Billy, who lowered his head, he crouched down, stretched out two fingers, and slammed on Billy Kid's head.

"Listen, boy. ”

Cyber looked at Billy's frightened eyes and said in a deep voice, "Your summoning circle drew 7 runes incorrectly, and I was almost cut in half by the space storm! But forget it this time, for the sake of you helping me cross the two realms, I won't accept your soul. ”

"You, are you really a demon?"

Billy felt that Cyber had no ill will towards him, and he became emboldened, and he eagerly asked, "Can the devil really grant the wishes of mankind?"

"Shh

Cyber suddenly raised his finger, put it to his mouth, and made a silent motion, he raised his head, the ring of flame in his eyes burned, at one moment he saw through the barrier of the earth, and the next moment, a hideous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"What a great place... It turns out that an old friend is also here. ”

He looked back at Billy the Kid and tilted his head:

"Do you really want to make a deal with the devil? You have to understand something, boy, if you want something, you have to give something..."

"I'm going to find my sister!"

Billy clenched his fists: "I don't know what you need, but as long as you say it, I'll do my best to help you find it!"

"Wow... Let me think. ”

Cyber pretended to think for a few seconds, then snapped his fingers:

"Then fetch something for me, and I'll tell you what it is..."

At this point, in the laboratory on the 13th floor of the surface, Agent Hilvet walked into the enclosed space alone, his authority was enough to do all this, and most importantly, with both of the big guys leaving, here, he had the final say.

He walked to the console of the cosmic cube that shone with blue light, he took a deep breath, reached out and pressed the charge button of the Rubik's cube, and the next moment, three super generators were activated, unimaginable energy poured into the cosmic cube, a blue portal tore through the space, in the midst of the lightning flash, wearing dark green armor, wearing a slender curved helmet, holding a yellow gem scepter, the fraudster strode out of the portal.

Loki stood in the lab, moved his shoulders, took a deep breath, he opened his arms, his eyes slightly closed:

"Ah, Midgard, I have come as promised, are you ready to be ruled by me?"

Behind him, the bald-headed Agent Hilvet humbled down, a blank look flashed in his eyes, and he whispered:

"Welcome back, master!"

"Well done, mutant. ”

Loki glanced at him and nodded with satisfaction: "Increase energy transmission, the highest specification of energy to activate the cosmic Rubik's Cube, let my..."

"Bang"

Before Loki's words fell, there was a continuous sound of collision and shattering under the distant floor, until at the last moment, a massive, familiar, huge figure with wings on its back tore through the shackles of the floor, crossed the 13th floor from the basement, and stood opposite him.

Cyber's demonic face looked at Loki with a look of surprise, he pulled out the thunderous Tenggu sword, this two-handed sword was like a one-handed sword in the demonic form, the blade flashed in front of his eyes, and he said in a deep voice:

"What a surprise, Mr. Loki from Asgard, and I hope you haven't forgotten what I said to you the last time we separated... You see, this time, your dad and your brother aren't here, and the damn rainbow bridge won't be here, so, are you ready for death?"

Cyber clenched his fists and put them in front of his eyes, and a dark green flame squeezed out of his fingers like flowing water, and he whispered:

"I swear to your father, this time, I will let you experience the most terrible torture in the world, I will let you know the price of angering me, I will listen to your cry for death with pleasure, and finally... I will cruelly refuse you!"

"Cyber Hawk!"

Loki's expression darkened, he took a step back, and he shouted in a loud voice:

"You're like the lowest maggot, you can't kill you! Even the Demon Realm can't bury you, you're really the most tenacious reptile I've ever seen!"

When he touched the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, which had begun to tear apart the space, a sly smile appeared on his face again:

"But it's a pity... This time, I'm not coming alone!"

"My army! Listen to my call!For me, tear him apart!!"
