Chapter 386: Redemption

In Nick Fury's blinded gaze, Lin Xuan reached out and tapped on the Cosmic Rubik's Cube. Then I was stunned for a few seconds. Finally ready to leave without doing anything?

"And that's the end? Didn't you say you were going to take it away? ”

"Put it here for now, someone will come and get it soon. Let's take a look at Tony Stark, he's already in your office. ”

Another vague and dizzy feeling. Only this time Fury felt much stronger. He even had a feeling of wanting to vomit.

"Just bear with me. Spatial movement can cause your brain to completely lose your sense of direction, which can cause symptoms such as dizziness and nausea, which will soon heal. But our Mr. Tony Stark isn't very good. Hehe, interesting. ”

"What are you talking about? Do you know what's wrong with him? ”

As he spoke, Tony walked into the office. It's just that Lin Xuan's existence made him a little surprised.

"You have guests, and I'd love to say I'll come back later. But I can't wait. I wonder if there is anyone in your Superboy program who can solve the problem on me. I can join if I have one. ”

"At least you have to explain what's wrong with you, right? You don't need S.H.I.E.L.D. technicians to deal with it, do you? And Lin is his own person, you don't have to worry. ”

"Anxiety? Well, there's a point. But that's just an outward manifestation. What I'm really trying to solve is this. Tony unbuttoned his shirt and leaked out of his left shoulder. However, Nick Fury responded with only a look of deception.

"So, in addition to anxiety, you also suffer from exhibitionism?"

"Well, looks like you can't fix it. Maybe I'm really crazy. Tony said as he buttoned up his shirt.

"Which is, Roerko's sigil?"

There was silence in the room for two seconds, then Tony yelled.

"You...... You can see. He leaned in front of Lin Xuan and pressed his shoulders hard against Lin Xuan's face. As if afraid that he would not be able to see clearly. Lin Xuan's body kept leaning back, he didn't like too close contact with the same sex. Especially Tony's fanatical look, which made him a little sick to his stomach.

"Well, you don't have to get so close. I can see it very clearly, but it doesn't matter what reason you're making a deal with him. I'm going to say, it was a terrible decision. ”

"It really sucks, can you really see it? That tells me what he's like. Tony didn't seem to believe that Lin Xuan could see it, and wanted him to prove it.

Lin Xuan smiled, and the fingers of his right hand moved slightly. Tony only felt a burning pain in his left shoulder. He looked over his shoulder, and saw that the pattern of the inverted pentagram was turning red, like red-hot metal. This time, even Nick Fury saw the mark.

"What's that?"

"This is the mark of a deal with the devil. And the aura on his body belongs to the great devil, Rolko. Not long ago, the culprit who created the Blood Mist Incident has now been captured by the Council. ”

"That doesn't sound like a problem anymore, does it? Since you can catch that devil or something, it shouldn't be a problem to get rid of this thing, right? ”

"Of course, it's very simple."

"Then hurry up and help me solve it, I can pay you ten million dollars." Tony said eagerly that he still hadn't gotten rid of his businessman habits at this time.

"Hehe, that's the problem. It's easy to solve this mark, but you can't avoid it. I think you know what I mean. Nightmares, whispers, visions, haunt you all the time, unless you say the words I voluntarily give my soul. To be honest, it's not easy for you to make it this far. Most people don't make it for a week. ”

"What do you mean? What symptoms aren't caused by this sign? ”

"To be exact, it was this sign at first. It's like a semaphore, marking your precise location with all the jumble of things in the lower planes. Until Rolco is solved, you belong to it. But when we finish Rolco, you're ownerless. They follow the logo and find you. But it's like when you go to a strange place, you always need a map for the first time. But the second time, the third time is not necessary. See what I mean? They already know where you are. It doesn't really matter if you have that logo or not. ”

"So how can I solve this problem, tell me. By the way, since you can solve that big devil, then you must be able to solve these guys who are eyeing me. I can hire you to fix this, for as much as you want. ”

"Hehe, Tony Stark. You may be one of the richest people in the world. But I can tell you clearly, even if you take out all your assets, you can't afford to hire someone who can enter the lower space and solve all the devils who are eyeing you. They are not hired for money. And it's a life-or-death task, and you're paying someone to die. ”

"Tell me, who can do it." Tony's eyes were red, and he said word by word.

"I'm barely counting one, and I'm about 10% sure. The Ancient One Mage is about the same as me, and it's about one percent. In addition, the god king Odin can solve this problem, and his face is not a big problem. But this is also about thinking. There are other ones, either I'm not familiar with. Or more dangerous than those devils. So ......"

"Is there no other way?"

"Maybe. But I don't know. It's a matter of the soul. You've made a deal, and you've obviously signed a contract. Your soul is already entangled with the lower planes. Those whispers, bewitchments, don't really ring in your ears. They come from the depths of your soul. ”

"I wonder what will happen if I can't bear it anymore and say the sentence that I voluntarily gave my soul?"

"Your soul will no longer belong to you, and you will be a slave to some devil, and you will never be able to turn over. Neither time nor death can get you out of it. The most terrible thing is that even if the devil who enslaved you dies, you will not be able to free yourself, because there will be another devil to take his place. Believe me, that's the real hell. ”

"In other words, I'm hopeless anyway, right? What if I kill myself now? ”

"Do you think you'll be able to go to heaven when you die? If you can't, it's useless. They will be waiting for you in hell. No one will be able to save you, Tony. If you really become a servant of the devil, I will not hesitate to completely annihilate your soul. But before that, there is a silver lining for yourself. ”

"What hope?" Your originally dim eyes lit up again. After all, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, no one will choose to become a slave of the devil.

"If you want to be free from the devil and under my control, what you need is a kind of salvation at the soul level. A kind of self-sublimation that comes from the depths of the heart. You need to break through the shackles of the dark side of your body and fill the holes in your mind so that the devil has no chance to take advantage of them. You'll need a fresh metamorphosis, Tony Stark. ”
