Chapter 37 Qualified Party A should learn to sit on the ground and raise prices
Mephisto suppressed his anger and said to Li Ping'an: "Li Ping'an, I admit that I underestimated you after all, you won the last battle."
"As the Lord of Hell, I can afford to lose. Now you have ruined the Pentagon, killed quite a few generals, and even a five-star general. This time you will definitely become an enemy of the whole United States.
"As long as you are willing to give me back my Ghost Riders, then I will help you out, and I promise that I will not finish any tricks in this transaction!"
Li Ping'an heard Mephisto say this, and smiled disdainfully: "Do you think I will care what those people think of me?" ”
"It's just a deal, the Ghost Riders don't play a role in your hands, and it's not a loss for you to trade a few things that are just rags for your peace." Mephisto was kind and seductive.
"Ghost Rider is useless to me, but it is useful to you." Li Ping'an put away the long knife and lifted the mask.
He continued: "I won't lose money on this business, but you'll make a lot of money." ”
Immediately afterwards, Li Ping'an's eyes narrowed with a smile, like a fox who stole a chicken: "You don't know, seeing that you have earned is even more uncomfortable than my loss." ”
Mephisto was speechless for a moment, and there was only one thought in his heart: I, the lord of hell, have made it for you, you damn scoundrel.
"If you still need anything, you can bring it up, and I can exchange it with you!" Mephisto said through gritted teeth.
"Don't worry, your Ghost Rider is still useful to me, but I can use one to exchange with you first, you use it first, and the other two later." Li Ping'an said with a smile.
"Which one do you want? I think you've been using that cowboy for a long time, so it must be very handy, just him. As he spoke, Li Ping'an took out a skull wearing a cowboy hat.
And Mephisto immediately felt the connection with Ghost Rider.
"What did you trap them with? Why can you cut off all my prying eyes! Mephisto couldn't help but ask.
"It's not part of our deal, I'm going to answer it."
After that, Li Ping'an shook the skull in his hand and said, "What do you think of this deal?" ”
The skull in his hand opened and closed restlessly at this time, making a card bar card sound.
The force in Li Ping'an's hand increased, and fine cracks spread out on the skull's head, and the flames in the skull's eyes also jumped and became weak.
Seeing Li Ping'an playing with his evil spirit rider at will, Mephisto's heart was on fire.
In the form of the Hell Lord, he is not only easy to get angry, but all kinds of negative emotions will be infinitely amplified by the Hell Dimension, which is why he was so easily provoked by Li Ping'an.
The hellfire around Mephisto burned uncontrollably, causing the entire land to dry up under the fierce hellfire, and even the little demonic blood it had absorbed before was evaporated again.
He was using the hellfire to burn his anger so that he could keep his sanity and communicate with Li Ping'an.
"I don't think this deal is good, this Ghost Rider is too old, and I still need to find a new host for him, so I want other Ghost Riders."
Mephisto said in a deep voice.
"Oh, that's a reasonable request, which one do you want? The Iron Skeleton looks very good, it's not too old, that's it, what do you think? ”
The green light flashed in Li Ping'an's hand, and the cowboy evil spirit was replaced by a skull burning with pale and cold flames, and his iron armor had been pulled off by Li Ping'an and placed in the dimensional world with the hell chain for analysis.
"He's so mobile, I want the Ghost Rider that Red Skull turns into." Mephisto spoke.
At this time, he tried his best to control his mood swings, so that the flames of hell around him burned normally.
"Hahaha! I see. Li Ping'an laughed.
"I said why did you immediately get into trouble with me again as soon as your plan failed, it turned out that this was because of this."
Mephisto's heart was faintly tight, and he suddenly had a premonition that he might be bleeding profusely this time!
After laughing, Li Ping'an's eyes froze, and his gaze stabbed at Mephisto like a sharp arrow.
"It seems that the loss of the Red Skull's soul has allowed the soul gem to come to you!"
As soon as these words came out, Mephisto was distracted, he didn't expect that Li Ping'an, a guy who was not yet at the level of Heavenly Father, would know about the agreement between himself and the Soul Gem.
Neither his age, nor his strength, nor his experience, should have allowed him to know so many secrets.
Suddenly, the flames around Mephisto burst into flames, and fiery serpents danced freely in the sea of fire.
Seeing this scene, although Mephisto did not affirm his statement, Li Ping'an knew that he was right, so that Mephisto was distracted at the moment.
Seeing that his hole cards had been leaked, Mephisto knew that he was at a disadvantage in this deal.
Instead, he restrained his emotions, and the endless sea of fire quickly converged and returned to his body.
The tall red devil's body began to slowly shrink, turning into an old man in a suit and leather shoes, looking extravagant.
"Now that you already know, there's nothing to hide. You make an offer! Mephisto said calmly.
"I want 100 million fresh souls to add to my dimensional world, and all your research into magic." Li Ping'an opened his mouth.
"Impossible! You are talking nonsense, there is no sincerity in the transaction at all. ”
Mephisto decisively rejected Li Ping'an's request.
"If you insist on doing this, I can only choose to resist the backlash of the soul gem, and then completely fight against you!"
There is a faint meaning in the words.
100 million fresh souls are fine, but it is impossible to have all his magic, and if he is given it, then all his weaknesses will be exposed to him.
This is something that Mephisto could not have agreed to anyway.
"I can give you 200 million souls, but I can't give it to you when it comes to magic, it's my life!" Mephisto could only add.
"Why do I want so many souls from you, what I need is knowledge, knowledge is priceless!" Li Ping'an said.
In fact, his goal is not soul and Mephisto's magic at all.
What he wanted was Mephisto's study of the soul, and this was his chance to break through to the Heavenly Father level, and he was bound to get it.
"We are all dimensional demon gods, so don't bargain like a merchant, that would be a loss of identity. You name your reserve price put! Mephisto spoke.
"That's not how to talk about business, I'm a young man, I can't play you old foxes, why don't you tell me your bottom line, I only listen to it once, if it doesn't work, I will leave immediately, and we will be the enemy in the future!"
Li Ping'an said.
Mephisto was keenly aware of a word in Li Ping'an's mouth, which made him very concerned: "You mean that we are not enemies now?" ”
"We're just unhappy now because of some conflicts of interest, and it's not enough that I have to fight to the death with you, so everything is still discussed. As for the future, I can't say for sure. ”
Li Ping'an said.
Mephisto pondered for a moment, and there was a slight joy in his heart, he knew that Li Ping'an had grown from an ordinary person to the current lord of the party, but it only took a short seven years, even if you count the flow rate of the dimensional world, it would be less than thirty years.
This speed of growth made Mephisto faintly frightened, if he grew at this rate, then I am afraid that after he woke up one day, he would find that Li Ping'an had broken his dimension into pieces and stepped on his head.
So he immediately put on a smiling face and said, "That's right, we just still have some unpleasantness."
"In this way, I will give you 100 million souls, and then give you our research system in hell for many years, how about I owe you a favor?"
"It's useless for me to ask for your favor, so let's tell my bottom line, exchange your favor for soul research for me, and I'll give you back the red skull, how about giving you a cool cowboy ghost?"
Li Ping'an bargained again.
This time Mephisto didn't immediately refuse, he thought for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.
With a wave of his hand, the vast Hell Dimension immediately rolled up a whirlwind, rolling countless newborn souls into the whirlwind, and finally gathered into a ball and appeared in Mephisto's hand.
He threw the soul in his hand into Li Ping'an's hand and said, "There are 100 million souls in this, only a lot more, so should you also fulfill some of your promises." ”
Li Ping'an threw away the cowboy evil spirit in his pocket and threw it at Mephisto's feet.
Then Mephisto used the fire of hell to condense a book that looked very thin, only three pages, and said to Li Ping'an: "This is our entire knowledge system of hell, as well as my research on the soul, what about the red skull?" ”
"The Red Skull is with me, he's my hole card, and I can't give it to you until I've read your notes and made sure there are no problems!"
"How can I trust you?" The old man Mephisto had become spoken.
"Compared to a hellish devil who lives by defrauding other people's souls, I think my credibility is far higher than his!" Li Ping'an occupies a favorable position in the negotiations.
He also gave full play to the rogue rights belonging to Party A, and asked Mephisto, Party B, to advance funds to build the project first, and then pay the balance himself.
Like other Party B, Mephisto can only accept Li Ping'an's rogue clause in the face of Party A's rogue clause, and it is better to have hope than nothing at all.
He threw the book in his hand to Li Ping'an, and after Li Ping'an opened it, he flipped it back, and found that after turning to the second page, no matter how he turned it, there was always a page behind it, and the same was true for the page.
Although the content of this page will change, it is always on the second page.
He knew that this was the wonder of the book, so he put it in his personal space.
Mephisto had originally stuffed a part of his soul into this book, and he wanted to find the red skull and take it away.
Although Li Ping'an found out, he didn't care.
Sure enough, after entering the portable space, Mephisto lost the sense of a part of his soul, and his heart was cold, and he didn't dare to test anything anymore, so he could only pray that Li Ping'an could keep the promise.
Well... Like who prays better, God that guy probably won't pay attention to himself......
At this time, helicopter gunships and a large number of tanks and armored vehicles were approaching in the distance, as well as supporting ambulances and reporters who asked for news, all began to run towards the Pentagon.
Li Ping'an looked into the distance and said to Mephisto: "Okay, that's it, if there is no problem with these things, I will release the red skull and let him go to hell by himself!" ”
Mephisto also knew that Li Ping'an didn't want to talk to him at this time, so he explained: "Then you remember, within half a year, you have to fulfill the agreement as soon as possible!" ”
After that, he took the initiative to control the Hell dimension and cut off the connection with the earth.
The black crack in front of him instantly closed and disappeared.
And Mephisto, in the dimension of hell, gently stroked his left hand.
His little thumb had disappeared, and that part of his soul had been melted into the book given to Li Ping'an, which had been disconnected at this time.
He swiped his right hand slightly, and a finger grew out of his left hand, but it was empty, just a layer of tricks.
......
On the other side, Li Ping'an, who was floating in mid-air, was spotted by a flying helicopter and a fighter jet.
He was greeted not by a routine question, but by an air-to-air missile fired by a P-38 twin fighter ......
