Chapter 261: The Beginning of Energy and Pluralism

"You actually use the abyss as a contract?"

Dormammu looked at the energy that filled the parchment that gave him a headache and nausea, and looked at Mephisto with the eyes of a madman. Who would dare to sign such a contract?

"Because only the abyss can ensure that both of us keep the contract. Our world has all experienced the erosion of the abyss, and we have all dealt with and been exposed to the abyssal energy, so no one understands the difficulties of the abyss better than we do. It is precisely because of this understanding that we will not easily break the contract. Mephisto was remarkable.

Dormammu was silent for a moment. Although he felt that Mephisto was playing with his heart, he was powerless to refute what he said.

"The contract is a two-way street, and if we do what we promised, then as long as you pay for it, the deal is done. The covenant abyssal energy will not affect us either. But if either party does not do what the contract says, then he will face a deeper abyss again. This is not a threat, but a guarantee for both of us! "Only by signing it can we initially build trust." You don't want your dark dimension to be occupied by the abyss, do you? Or are you just trying to prostitute us for nothing? ”

Speaking of the latter, Mephisto's tone and expression became serious. Odin and the Ancient One, who were present, also set their sights on Dormammu's doppelganger, which made Dormammu feel a little stressed.

"Of course I'll keep the contract." Dormammu's eyes flickered, "If you can really help me solve the abyss problem." ”

"We can't help you solve the abyss problem, all we can do at the moment is to help you maintain the abyss and prevent it from spreading. Do you understand the concept? If you are sick, we will not be able to cure you, we can only keep your illness from getting worse. Mephisto shook his finger, cautiously correcting Dormammu's perception.

Indeed, Luke's technology was able to seal abyssal energy and transfer it to other places for storage. But that's the kind of treatment and technology that only they're partners can enjoy.

Dormammu?

Well, from the premise of maximizing profits, it is definitely more to ask for expenses than to solve them all at once. Anyway, they are the only ones who can solve the abyss at present. As long as Dormammu doesn't want his dark dimension to be transformed into an abyssal dimension, he can only agree to Mephisto's conditions and accept his technology.

The technical business is so domineering.

Of course, it can't be too much, and if it goes too far, Dormammu may turn around and go to find other ways. With the erosion of abyssal energy, if you want to completely occupy the dark dimension, it is also a long cycle on the time scale.

Mephisto had been waiting for the biggest sum of energy to come in after the bank opened.

The condition is that the Ancient One at the meeting will make corrections and make a final decision, after all, if anyone here knows the Dark Dimension and Dormammu best, it is undoubtedly the Ancient One who has crossed more than one timeline with Dormammu. She can grasp Dormammu's psychological bottom line.

If Mephisto had come by himself, he might have been greedy and would have eaten a sum of wool first. He has always liked to play with words, but there is not much to do with the Abyss Contract, and he can only use a cautious way to chew words to minimize the loopholes on his side as much as possible.

"It's not what you promised." Dormammu's pupils narrowed, and although he had come over, he didn't have much trust in the few on the field.

An energy thief.

A young war fanatic.

The other is a cunning demon god who is good at demagoguery.

Although he is also good at deceiving and disguising himself, in the face of these old opponents, if he is not cautious, I am afraid that he will be sold clean by the other party.

"We've never said we've been able to help you completely clear the abyssal energy, we've always said to help you control its spread. In addition, a friendly reminder: the wider the scope of the abyss, the more dimensional energy that erodes and assimilates, the more troublesome it is to govern and control, and the higher the price you need to pay!

The ideal is at the beginning of the discovery of the abyss, when it is best to deal with it, both in terms of expenses and hidden dangers. If it spreads to a certain point, beyond a certain limit, then even if you are willing to give everything to come back to us, we can only say that there is nothing we can do.

My opinion is, don't hesitate, don't procrastinate. Mephisto snapped a side reminder.

Stephen Strange, who was a doctor by profession on the side, listened to Mephisto's words and unexpectedly felt familiar. It seems that he used to hear and see these words often in the field where he was active.

"Is that all the terms of this contract all there are?" Dormammu's broad chest swelled and contracted like bellows a few times, and finally asked absentmindedly while flipping through the dense terms on it.

"It's just a basic clause that is used to guarantee the trust between the two of us. Specifically, there will be a supplementary clause that requires us to understand the extent of the abyssal erosion on your side to determine whether the contract you have in hand will take effect. If your side is too much eroded, we may give up the business for the safety of our side. Mephisto said sternly.

"When can I go over and confirm?"

"It depends on when you pay off your upfront labor bills. It includes labor costs, business trip expenses, and personal insurance expenses. When the money arrived, I immediately brought someone over. ”

"I hope to see results soon."

The appearance of Mephisto as a businessman made the corners of Dormammu's mouth twitch, and he didn't bother to bargain with Mephisto anymore. The sigil of his dimensional power as a signature, flashed away on the contract that he had weighed hundreds of times.

As Dormammu's doppelganger disappeared from his seat, a vast amount of energy from the dark dimension poured in frantically with access permission granted by Luke. After going through the energy conversion process set by the data dimension, the energy that has been turned into purity is classified into the energy storage area specially opened up for the energy bank in the data dimension.

"I love the abyss!"

Seeing the energy pouring into the energy bank, Mephisto's eyes lit up like a high-watt light bulb. In the years since the establishment of the Energy Bank, he has not only completely made up for the loss of expenses in advance, but also made up for it in recent times! Especially since this is just the beginning!

The Abyss's Seal Material Needs Money, Right?

Technology comes with a fee, right?

The abyssal energy is so corrosive, it is only natural that the seal needs to be reinforced and maintained from time to time, right? These expenses can't be paid for by his side, right?

In a short moment, Mephisto swept through a lot of items that could be charged in his mind, and even if he charged a little less, it would add up to a lot of income. Even if these have to be shared with Luke and the others here, there is still some money.

Although Mephisto is greedy, as one of the few demon gods in the dimension who can control his desires and judge the situation, he still recognizes more and more of the small group he has joined. Whether you are Luke's technology or the ancient one's understanding and insight into the major dimensions, including the Nine Realms under control, can play a corresponding role.

Since the development of the energy bank, in terms of the time concept of the dimensional demon god, it has barely even been established, but it has begun to show potential and be profitable?

Mephisto thought about the location and found that although the current business of the energy bank is scarce, it seems to be a high-quality business. Except for the new god loan and the like, which have not yet seen the return of money, the others are about to make a profit, or start to make a profit.

What are these dimensional demon gods tossing and turning for? Mephisto, the other demon god with a bad brain, didn't know, but he was definitely there to collect energy, and the souls that hell needed.

The energy bank had just enough to meet all the needs of the Hell dimension, and it was as if it had been made for him. And now that the situation is good, when the abyss spreads a little more, then it seems that the deposit and loan business can also become?

"I'll go to Dormammu's side first." Mephisto said to himself with a lot of motivation. The body quickly disappeared into the venue.

God King Odin squinted at the place where Mephisto had disappeared, and then glanced at the Ancient One who turned around and opened the portal to leave, thoughtfully,

The energy bank seems to be going up?

Isn't it time for you to consider changing careers and entering the energy bank to occupy a place for Asgard first? After all, the Ancient One and Luke both have their own indispensable places, and he and his Asgard are not as important as the two of them. He also occupies a preconceived patriarchal status.

……

Just as the Asgard Alliance meeting was dissolved, Odin was thinking about the time to retire, and several people suddenly appeared in the atrium.

"Are you sure it's this time period? The date is a bit wrong. A handsome man with tough facial features looked at today's date and turned his head to ask the people beside him.

"There may have been an accident, and we have to contact Stark first." A glamorous lady with burgundy hair, a delicate figure, and a charming face looked at the environment that was a little different from what she remembered, and frowned.

"What about Dr. Banner?" Captain Rogers asked. He wasn't trying to ask where Dr. Banner was, he knew exactly where Dr. Banner was heading according to the plan, and he wanted to ask if there would be an accident on Banner's side as well.

And Agent Natasha Romanoff understood what Captain Rogers meant without hindrance, and she tentatively asked, "Can you try to contact Dr. Bonner?" ”

"No, we can all spot anomalies, and there's no way Dr. Banner is so smart that he hasn't found them. Let's go to Stark Tower first. Rogers paused for a moment and shook his head, still planning to follow the plan and go to their respective locations to inquire about the situation.

After all, no one had ever traveled time before them, and there was no experience for them to draw on. The only thing they can do is to find out as much as possible about the situation, and then analyze and reformulate the plan based on the situation.

Rogers believes that the partners who came with him this time will definitely find a way to come here to meet up after discovering that something is wrong. This is true even if it is not in a single time period.

……

"Dr. Banner?"

Coming out of the portal, Strange was confronted by a green giant jumping onto the roof of his house.

"Strange?" Dr. Banner saw Strange appear, and his face was full of surprise: "Aren't you dead?" ”

"I'm dead?" Strange, who was stunned by Hulk's clueless words, also frowned, and he also noticed the anomaly in Dr. Banner at this moment.

With Luke's help, Dr. Banner really doesn't have to worry about wreaking havoc and becoming an irrational saboteur after transforming into the Hulk, but in the same way, when the other party transforms into the Hulk, he definitely doesn't show enough sanity like the Hulk in front of him.

If anything, it was that Dr. Banner, whom he knew and was familiar with, and the Hulk in his body, were two fused but different spirits.

The Dr. Banner in front of him seems to have completely merged with the Hulk, he has both the form and strength of the Hulk, and at the same time has the reason and mind of Dr. Banner. In other words, it was as if Hulk's consciousness had disappeared from him.

This situation made Strange curious.

"Are you from the future? No, the access to the timeline is a bit rough, you guys are from other universes? Strange used the Eye of Agamotto, and the Eye of Agamotto he wore on his chest also shone brightly, attracting Hulk's attention.

"Give it to me." Hulk grabbed the Eye of Agamotto on Strange's chest with his bare hand, the purpose of his visit was to obtain the Eye of Agamotto sealed in the Eye of Agamotto, and the first time he saw the gem, he almost subconsciously made a move.

"Wow, it's not good to grab other people's things when we meet." Strange has been honed and cultivated under the ancient hand for so many years, and he can be relieved to retire by the other party and throw the responsibility to him, his skills and strength have long been different. Dr. Banner's movements, though fast and urgent, were still dodged by Strange's backward sideways, and at the moment when Dr. Banner was close, he stepped forward and gave a stellar projection.

He knows Hulk's body very well, and it is difficult to hurt the other party by simply using force or other things, and it is too ostentatious to use other ways to restrain him.

Dr. Banner's spirit body is shot into Strange by the energy that comes straight out of Hulk's body. Banner only felt the flow of time around him slow down, the space lightened, and he floated backwards from Hulk's body.

"Now we can have a good talk." Strange came to Dr. Banner's spirit body, looked at Banner who was a little dazed, and smiled.

"What did you do?" Banner gave Strange a surprised look.

"It's just a spell, didn't Strange show it to you over there?" Strange asked rhetorically.
