459. Trading Night
After getting Alesha's words, Zhou Chu was at ease, and at this time, Mephistopheles also completed his hesitation and answered Zhou Chu's question.
"I don't think I have anything to hide about this, because a few of them are visitors from another world, so they will have to leave sooner or later, right?"
It is an answer, but in fact it asks a question.
"Not sooner or later, but soon, especially in terms of the lifespan of your demons."
There was nothing to hide about this, so Zhou Chu didn't care about it, and answered Mephistopheles directly.
"So my purpose is not in conflict with yours, Samael's power has the ability to bring people back from the dead, not the kind of power that can bring the dead back to life, but the ability to completely retain the soul of the dead, and even call back, but let him have the power of the dead, or even more powerful, which is not possessed by other demons and demon kings who can bring the dead back to life, what I want to study is the mystery of this power."
Zhou Chu is naturally able to understand Mephistopheles's statement, death power is not the same as necromancy, many necromancers can resurrect the dead, but the dead have lost their previous soul as a living, including memory, self-awareness, emotion, etc., and the real death power is to bring the dead back to life, as the identity of the deceased, to have a more powerful power again, and still retain the original soul and memory, as well as self-awareness, and such a process, But it doesn't need cumbersome spells and long hours.
In Zhou Chu's memory, he was able to do this. Probably only Samael and the Lich King, but unlike Samael, the Lich King is only able to resurrect the dead, making them into beings like the undead and the living dead, and further up, they are just Necromantic Knights and Death Knight who have been endowed with a strong amount of power, but Samael is able to resurrect any dead person, and give any resurrected person a powerful force, and even change their form and appearance. Such a force amount. Something the Lich King can't do.
And the power of the Lich King that Zhou Chu now possesses, in fact, is only similar to that of an ordinary necromancer in this regard, capable of resurrecting and summoning unconscious dead people and bodies. and the Banshee. He is also able to cast the skills of the Death Knight. But it is impossible to "really" resurrect a dead person, which can only be done by the real Lich King Berval now.
So he was naturally able to understand. As the demon god and demon king of magic in hell, Mephistopheles is thirsty and curious about such a power force, and can also understand that if he can really grasp and comprehend the laws in this power power, it will be a great help for these demon kings and kings, of course, if you want to comprehend and understand, probably only Mephistopheles or Lucifer can do it.
So although this was a more favorable deal for Mephistopheles, after Aresha confirmed Zhou's speculation and thoughts, this so-called permanent loss also turned into a short-term loss, and in the long run, it immediately became a win-win situation.
So just a small confirmation and turning point made the transaction that Zhou Chu was ready to reject possible.
So he replied to Mephistopheles: "I understand, but there are some details, I still want to confirm, such as this killing of Villa, did you do it alone, or did we assist you, or, Master Mephistopheles, you just assist, we are the main force?" ”
"No, I can't kill Villa." Mephistopheles said, "It would violate my agreement with the other kings, and I really can't kill Villa." ”
He paused, then said, "But you can." ”
There is a mystery in this, Zhou Chu thought, but still pretended to be puzzled: "Can we?" ”
"Yes, you can, it has to do with Villa's weakness, but that's a secret that can only be told after the agreement." Mephistopheles showed his prudence and cunning, "As for my part, I will be responsible for teleporting you to Villa when you decide and start your action, and make sure that he doesn't have any defenses around him, just him, of course, what you need, items, information, treasures, or manpower, as far as I can have and get it, and if I know it, you will get it." ”
"And my request is only one-third of Samael's power."
Mephistopheles ended this paragraph with his own request after the last moment, Mephistopheles said all the content of the agreement, what he can do and help, what he can give to Zhou Chu and others, what and what there are so many.
"Well, allow me to think about it."
Zhou Chu said this to Mephistopheles, and then immediately sorted out Mephistopheles's words just now.
First of all, Mephistopheles can't kill Villa for them, this still has to be done by themselves, Mephistopheles can only assist, or even just be in charge of teleportation, but also ensure that they can face Villa alone, and tell them about Villa's weaknesses, and during this period, as part of the compensation and transaction, Mephistopheles will also try to meet their needs and requirements, and they only need to hand over one-third of Samael's power.
After a while, Zhou Chu raised his head: "Lord Mephistopheles, can I reply to you later?" You know, the conditions you give are indeed very tempting, but they are also extremely risky. ”
"Of course." Mephistopheles didn't say anything about it, "You can contact me at any time through this. ”
Mephistopheles handed over a dark purple crystal, nodded to the others, and left the room.
It wasn't until Mephistopheles left that the tension in the room finally disappeared, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief and lifted the battle defenses.
"Are you really going to promise him?"
Gao Ming asked.
"Why not?" After Mephistopheles left, Zhou Chu expanded his perception, reversed his previous caution, sat on the chair, and replied to Gao Ming with a slight smile, "This is a very good deal." ”
"One-third of Samael's power, isn't that a little too uneconomical?"
These were the words of Killiri, who, in his opinion, had one-third of Samael's power, something that almost all the kings of hell wanted and dreamed of, and Mephistopheles' condition was only to tell them about Villa's weaknesses, to assist them, and to help them face to face with Villa.
"For you, perhaps." Zhou Chu said, "But Killiri, for us, this one-third of Samael's power only needs to change to another world realm to be restored, just like a spring, the source is Aleisha, as long as she lives, Samael's strength will never disappear." ”
Gao Ming and the others quickly understood Zhou Chu's words.
"Well, it does seem like a good deal." "But I always felt that something was wrong, or rather, it was like falling asleep and someone brought a pillow, and if according to Faust, Mephistopheles was not so kind and so innocent in trading." ”
"Of course." Zhou Chu nodded, it seemed that he was also convinced of this, "When dealing with demons, you will always have to have one more mind, just ......"
He smiled, as if I had already thought of a victory: "It's just that I seem to have more eyes in my heart, since Mephistopheles can trade with us, it also means that we can also trade with others." ”
After saying this, Zhou Chu did not continue to explain his words that were somewhat meaningless, and the others were also very wise not to ask, since Zhou Chu had prepared and countermeasures, then let him operate, sometimes, it is not that he is distrustful and cannot be disclosed, but that the more people who know the matter, the more risks and dangers there are leaks, and the less people know about the matter, the greater the chance and possibility of success in the end.
So the most reluctant, Gao Ming, just asked, "Do you really want to trade with Mephistopheles?" After receiving Zhou Chu's affirmative answer, everyone did not discuss this issue again.
In the middle of the night, Maki finally arrived, and saw Zhou Chu, and after the two of them whispered in the room for a long time, Maki left again.
The next morning, Zhou Chu told everyone that because of Mephistopheles' appearance and the transaction, he would stay in Babraka for a few days, but at the same time, Lika and Juddbris, Kiriri and Atama, also left Babraka separately to complete the tasks and things that Zhou Chu explained to them.
Later, Zhou Chu contacted Mephistopheles and promised him to make a deal, and agreed on the time and place of the soul contract to be traded.
On this evening, outside the city of Babraca, in a forest.
Get rid of the four Rika who have left, and the team of Hades plus Ralmi will all be dispatched.
This is not to guard against what Mephistopheles wants to do and danger, speaking of precautions, it is easier for Zhou Chu to escape and leave alone, after all, he has the origin virus, the power of the Lich King and the body of Cain, plus the power of Alesha's Samael, not to mention killing a king, but there is no problem with running away.
The reason why all the people went out was simply because everyone was curious about what the form of the soul contract with the demon was, and whether Mephistopheles would reveal his true nature, and other irrelevant questions, that is, they were here to visit.
Everyone's mentality is very good, since Zhou Chu said that he has a grasp and a countermeasure, then no matter how nervous and worried, it will be useless, unless they have a better grasp and countermeasure, if not, then continue to leave it all to Zhou Chu to grasp and control.
