Chapter Forty-Seven: Mephisto Gets Away
"Congratulations...... Although the process was beyond my expectations. With a demonic whisper, Mephisto appeared on the battlefield.
And his presence made everyone's nerves tense again. Yingmi, who was holding Yingao, frowned, and her fingertips lit up with a phoenix golden flame.
Angela immediately took out an enchanted cross and aimed it at Mephisto. Johnny's hand also grasped Winchester, and the other witchers also clenched their weapons.
"Oh, don't be so nervous, I don't have any interest in your souls, I'm just here to complete my deal. Johnny, oh, you're here. Congratulations. You've made the deal, and I think it's time for me to get my ghost rider power back. You get into your life, the true love you've always wanted. There are many people in this world who are willing to trade their souls for lust, let others bear this curse, you are free now. After all, words count. Mephisto waved his hand, and among all the people on the scene, there were only three souls he could look at, Yingao, Konstantin and Angela.
However, the soul imprint that the black heart demon can sense can naturally be sensed by Mephisto, so he doesn't dare to move Yingao's soul, as for Constantine?
Satan and God named souls at the same time, and he didn't want to cause trouble.
Angela is very good, but the Mammon incident before the problem is in full swing, and Mephisto naturally knows that Constantine can offend God for Angela's sister: exchange angel wings for Isabel's soul. So Angela's soul can't be taken either......
Therefore, Mephisto showed up just to retrieve the power of the Ghost Rider, and he was not so idle to run here to collect some souls that could only be used as an energy drain for action.
"The devil's word only the devil believes." Even if he is scarred, Midnight Daddy's momentum is very fierce, and he has a big fighting posture if he doesn't agree with him.
"What are you talking so much nonsense for, what do witchers have to say when they encounter demons? Either you die or I live. Lin Hong directly pulled out his phoenix-patterned golden flame sword, looking at his appearance, he wished to have a fight with Mephisto.
"Relax, your sister is not under my control, but you better be respectful to me. Also, you little phoenix, don't think that you can go sideways with a little strength, be careful that I keep you in my birdcage. Ahem, off topic, Johnny, what's going on with it. Mephisto first signaled that he had no ill will, and then threatened everyone. Finally, Mephisto looked at Johnny.
"No, I'm going to bear this curse, and I'm going to use it against you. As long as there are innocent people who are victimized, I will appear to you in the name of my father. Vengeful spirits fight flames against flames. With so much going on, Johnny has clearly realized the true face of this demon Mephisto. Faced with this demon, Johnny doesn't seem to have much choice. Not to mention that Mephisto played Johnny first.
And Johnny also took advantage of Mephisto's loophole: the contract cannot be disobeyed, it must be signed by mutual consent, and it must be terminated by mutual consent, just like Mephisto used the power of the contract to force Johnny to hunt down the Black Heart Demon, Johnny can also use the power of the contract to refuse to terminate the contract.
"......" Mephisto opened his mouth, what's the situation, the script is not written like this, you want to go crazy?
"The Devil's Deal. Hehe, Mephisto, you're out of the game. Konstantin knew what was going on at a glance, and couldn't help but admire Johnny: Ghost Rider suffers from the mental torture of the vengeful spirit every day, and some of Johnny's fiery and impulsive behaviors after his transformation are affected by the vengeful spirit. Therefore, another person may really choose to break the contract and get rid of that crazy vengeful spirit.
"Forget it, since you don't want to break the contract, it's up to you, besides, you demon hunters have done me a favor this time, and this thing belongs to you in return. Remember that if you want to trade, I am always welcome. Of course, just prepare something that interests me......" Mephisto tossed the skeletal scepter in his hand to Constantine, and then disappeared in front of everyone.
"What?!" Konstantin and Midnight Daddy looked at each other, a little confused, when did Mephisto, the demon of hell, talk so well?
"It's ...... A remote communication device, midnight, is yours. Konstantin examined the scepter and tossed it to Daddy Midnight.
"This? What do you do for me, I'm not a rag, a broken scepter seems to have only one location function left in addition to establishing a call with Mephisto, I don't want to expose my treasure trove to Mephisto's gaze. Now, he's the president, and this thing was given to him. Midnight Daddy rolled his eyes and tossed the scepter to Yingmi.
"Leave him alone, hurry up and clean up the battlefield, Francis, go get the wounded to your bar, and prepare some more good drinks by the way." Konstantin lit another cigarette, and now that it was safe, his temperament rose again.
"Okay, okay, you have the final say, let's take a hand." Francis waved his hand, his own injury was not yet healed, so he had been playing soy sauce just now.
With Mephisto's departure, the ambush battle on the outskirts of Houston was finally over, the losses of the witchers were not too large, and almost all of them were seriously injured in terms of personnel, but they were finally fully arranged in advance, and no one hung up.
However, the loss of items is quite large, Ying Ao's Angel Guardian Glove was directly scrapped, the 'Thor's Hammer' was in a state of maintenance, several Philosopher's stones were used, a high-level sorcery scroll, and so on. And the loot seems to be only a devil's scepter......
In general, it is a big loss, but it is still possible to knock on the bamboo pole of S.H.I.E.L.D. to recover some losses, and once again improve the prestige of the witcher, which is better than nothing.
……
Although there was a battle to lose home, the celebration party still had to be held.
In the face of the gracious witcher, even Carter was dragged away by Konstantin.
Johnny joins the party as well, although slips out with his girlfriend in the middle of the party.
Constantine emptied Francis's cellar on the grounds that 'anyway, it's reimbursement at public expense, and he won't drink for nothing', which made Francis want to cry without tears, and Francis, who had been robbed and looted, was the first to get drunk with the bottle in his arms because he couldn't keep it.
Unlike this group of drunkards, several other women couldn't stand the smell of alcohol here, and ran to the box one after another.
The crowd drank in the dark at Francis's bar, and it didn't end until dusk when a young dragon woke up.
Watching Ying Mi walk into a certain dragon's temporary ward, led by Konstantin and Lin Hong, a large number of old men who were burning with gossip hearts touched the door outside the room to eavesdrop.
Thanks to the blessing of a strong body, Ying Ao just woke up after sleeping for most of the day. But looking at Ying Mi sitting on the edge of the bed, Ying Ao was willing to continue to sleep.
