30. Peak loop turn
In the small town of St. Vangonza, in the midst of this ancient ruin, a special deal is underway.
Two mortals, uh... Two mortals who are not mortals, and a devil whose existence has long been unverifiable, a visitor to hell.
It's a bargain about evil, justice, freedom, bondage, and so much more, and for now, the mortal side has the upper hand.
"Hehe... This is probably the first time that someone has used such an arrogant tone to make a deal with a big demon king. ”
Mephisto laughed, there was no smile in his gaze, and a dark energy rippled in the space behind him, like a stream of pure black water.
He said seemingly calmly,
"So, let me hear what you want from me?"
"My health, and his soul..."
With a smile on his face, Cyber waved the flame blade in his hand, wiping out one flame after another in the air, and he whispered,
"I think you've made a lot of money by exchanging these two things for this treasure contract, aren't you?"
Mephisto's fingers clenched his staff tightly, and a black storm of corrosive aura swept across the edge of the small town of St. Vangonza, and in an instant, the two walls disappeared in place.
There was a hint of coldness in his eyes, and a hint of mockery,
"Oh... Don't you think, you want too much? It's just 1,000 mortal souls, and you think these things can buy you freedom? No, no, no... Your value is much more important than 1,000 mortal souls, ten times more important? Do you know how much of a storm I can make in this world by relying on you?"
"Huh"
The Great Demon King let out a low laugh, "Don't underestimate yourself, my carefully selected warriors and knights. ”
"But I think it's a good fit... It's true. ”
Cyber playfully tossed the scroll in his hand up and down, "You probably don't understand the value of this scroll, so let me explain it to you." ”
"The Saint Van Gonza Contract, on the surface, is just the embodiment of 1,000 mortal souls that can be seen everywhere, but it is the embodiment of the loophole of the agreement between you bull ghosts, snake gods and supreme mages, you rely on it, you can summon your entity into this world, and the most important thing is that even the supreme mage can't stop all this, because the language of "gods" is powerful!"
"It's worth more than you say, you see, I know more than you think, my dear Lord Lord. ”
Cyber's eyes returned to normal, the flames on his sword disappeared cleanly, and he spread his hands easily,
"You don't really think I don't know anything, do you?"
"Bang"
The ruins of the small half of the small town of St. Van Gonza behind Mephisto were completely crushed to powder under the explosion of the power of the Great Demon King, and the light in his eyes was already gloomy to the extreme,
"No!"
This time there were already thousands of voices in the same tone, as if thousands of people were talking together, just hearing it was enough to give people a headache,
"No! You shouldn't know that! You shouldn't mention it in front of me!"
"Miscellaneous, see who's standing in front of you!"
"I am the Lord of Hell!"
"I walk with death!"
"I am the Great Demon King Mephisto!"
"I never accept... Threat!"
Two giant devil's claws, composed entirely of darkness, poked out of the darkness behind Mephisto and smashed down on Cyber and Johnny in front of them, like smashing into the giant arm of an ant, but suddenly dissipated in the next moment, turning into black points of light in the sky, like brilliant broken light.
It's not that Mephisto has mercy, it's that Cyber... Cyber held the scroll in his left hand, and in his right hand was a black water bladder, the scroll was only less than 5 centimeters away from the water bladder, his gaze was also cold, and there was a look of victory.
"You know what it is, right?"
"Really, condensed holy water, as long as I throw it in, all evil things with blasphemous words will be corroded cleanly, you can gamble, in the face of you bull ghosts and snake gods who once dominated the world, maybe I don't dare to do it!"
In the face of Cyber's strength, does Mephisto dare to take risks?
No, he didn't dare... Because this scroll is now pinned on him, he is no longer the only one, the gods who were forced to leave this world by the ancient one, their eyes have never been far from this world, Mephisto is the first to discover the loophole, and he is also the pathfinder who was thrown out by them.
Mephisto, even if he is one of the lords of hell, does not dare to take risks in the face of those united forces, especially when he is only one step away from the final victory.
"Whew... I read you right, Seber Hawke!"
Mephisto took a deep breath, the dark energy behind him completely dissipated, and he looked at Cyber with a hint of undisguised appreciation in those eyes,
"You're a villain who does whatever it takes, and only wants results... Someone like you is my dream of being a warden... You're right, we should negotiate a solution to this matter. ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Cyber's mouth, and the flames on Johnny's body suddenly disappeared, and the Ghost Rider thought that this was the end of the matter, but the next moment, the corners of Mephisto's mouth also had a smug smile, he stretched out his hand, and two images of ordinary people who seemed to have been shrunk by 10 times appeared in the palm of his hand,
"Still, I don't think this scroll will buy you freedom, and besides, I think I have a better exchange... How?"
He raised his left hand and placed the image of the two men in front of Cyber and Johnny, as if introducing his own goods, and said proudly,
"See, Cyber. This is Kevin Turner and Sergey Ivanovich... Two featureless, non-collectible souls, in the past, I didn't bother to look for such beings, but my Warden Joker gave me a great plan, and I adopted it... Who would have thought that the cold-blooded Cyber Hawk actually had two weakness that were well hidden?"
The Great Demon King's tone became more and more relaxed, and Saibo's expression became more and more gloomy, and Johnny also sensed that something was wrong, and he walked to Cyber's side, but the former didn't want to say a word.
"Aren't you really curious about the reason why your two brothers have been lying in a hospital bed for 4 years and still haven't woken up?"
Mephisto straightened his collar and said,
"Yes, they should have woken up 3 years ago, but then the clown just came to me, and then I easily got their souls, and I've been preparing for 3 years... I thought they wouldn't be able to use it, but now, I suddenly realized that I had such good hole cards in my hand..."
He took a deep breath, flicked his fingers slightly, and two small black lightsabers appeared in front of Kevin and Sergei's souls, as long as Mephisto moved slightly, the souls of these two ordinary people would be completely wiped out, he looked at Cyber, and then at Johnny,
"What was once a useless pawn suddenly became so precious, it's really... It's unforgettable!"
"There's not much time left for you to choose, Cyber. ”
Mephisto covered his cane with his winning hands, Kevin and Sergei's souls lined up on both sides, he looked at Cyber who was stuck in a difficult choice, and he whispered,
"Actually, it's a good choice, you just need to give me what you have in your hand, or let me kill these two souls that are useless to you, and the situation will return to your control, just like just now, pushing me to a dead end, just need you to nod slightly, just like this..."
Two small black lightsabers slowly pierced into the two souls, and Cyber's fingers holding the contract of St. Vangonza tightened sharply, he heard the cry of the soul, he saw the pain on the soul's face, and he also saw the hideousness in Mephisto's eyes.
"Oh, looks like you've made up your mind. ”
Seeing that Cyber had no response, the Great Demon King seemed a little distracted, and he shrugged his shoulders seemingly helplessly, "Sure enough, Cyber Hawk should be an emotional person, he shouldn't be a cold-blooded bastard, it turns out that everything in his appearance is his disguise... I knew you were supposed to be so cold, they were useless to you, right?"
The Great Demon King's fingers moved slightly,
"Then let me get rid of your last weakness for you!"
"Look at me, think about who I am, do you think I'm going to be the kind of person who can't do it? Remember, Cyber, what you hold in your hand is just an opportunity for me to try, I've had countless chances like this, but what does what my hand means to you... Think about it. ”
The black lightsaber slowly moved forward, easily slicing through the bodies of the two souls, and the moment the lightsaber slid into their bodies, Cyber threw the water bladder in his hand to the ground, and he held the scroll high,
"Enough!"
He threw the scroll at Mephisto,
"Enough! You've won!"
The Great Demon King's fingers moved slightly in the air, and the scroll easily fell into his palm, Johnny looked at the scene in disbelief, he smashed Cyber to the ground with a punch like crazy,
"No! No! How can you do that!"
"How can you just give up!"
"Hell, we're one last step away from victory!
He slammed his fist down, but was grabbed by Cyber, whose eyes were bloodshot and like a madman, holding Johnny's fist in his hand and yelling at him,
"Are you stupid? Look at him! Do you really think he doesn't have cards against you? Look back! Who is the third soul he took out! It doesn't make sense! He's ready for everything, we don't have a chance!"
Johnny Blazer's body froze in place, and he slowly turned around, only to see Mephisto staring at Cyber with an unhappy expression.
"Ah, you're clever enough, Seber Hawke, and I'm going to talk to my knight about Zatanos later... But it doesn't matter, now that the mystery has been revealed, let's take it out all at once. ”
With that, he moved his fingers, and the third soul was ripped out of the darkness, and the moment he saw the soul, a hot blue flame erupted from Johnny's body, and he roared and threw himself at Mephisto, but was pinned to the ground by Cyber.
"Damn, calm down! He just wants to drive you crazy, only then will the spirit of vengeance return to chaos, don't fall for it!
"You made me... How do you calm me down!"
Johnny's madness was even greater than that of Cyber before him, and his hoarse voice sounded like weeping blood in the hazy land,
"That's... That's my father!"
That's right, the third soul summoned by Mephisto is Johnny's father, who died 10 years ago in the explosive Patton of the show... Like Kevin and Sergei's souls, he was so well preserved that Johnny could even see the barely changed look on his face.
Seeing the weakness of the trader who had the advantage just now, Mephisto watched with interest the pain and struggle of the two men, as well as their hateful gazes, while playing with the St. Van Gonza contract in his hand, all of which seemed to make his interest more and more high.
He took a deep breath and whispered,
"What are you crying and crying, you see, I found all your relatives, didn't I? The most important thing in a family is not to be neat and tidy?"
His gaze fell on Cyber again, who was imprisoned by Johnny, and a hideous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth,
"So, what are you waiting for? Seber Hawke, don't you want to regain your health?"
"You know what to do... Right?"
