Chapter 158 Depression
Chapter 158 Depression
“That’s not wrong, but dancing with an old devil like you is really…” Lu Yifang looked a little uncomfortable and looked at Mephisto.
"Demons disdain alliances. We do not believe in the word of allies. The only thing we can trust is trade and the way of business." Mephisto smiled and suddenly pulled out a roll of parchment from his arms.
"Come on! Now that the oath is made, you are... Uh, huh, I spoke out of turn. The business in the land has been interrupted recently, causing me a lot of losses, so I moved to another world to expand my business."
Mephisto awkwardly took back the scroll, reached out again, took out another contract and presented it.
"It seems that your recent situation is quite difficult." Lu Yifang took it silently, picked up Luna to read it together, and did not forget to ask Coulson to record it and pass it on to SHIELD.
"Coulson, contact Fury immediately and look for a negotiation expert and a master of mind. I also need to consult the old wizard of the Priory. I hope he can analyze it in detail and then give me an answer."
As Lu Yifang gave the order, Mephisto's expression dimmed, as if he was saddened by the lack of trust and faith in the world.
"Your contract is a complete conspiracy, don't you know it?" Lu Yifang glanced at Mephisto. It is true that the Lord of Hell will not regret his contract, but it does not prevent him from taking advantage of the unknown loophole to lead the situation to his own advantage.
"Only fools and children believe the devil's promises."
"Cough cough!" Johnny, who turned back into Ghost Rider, couldn't help but cough lightly when he heard that.
"Don't hide it, the one who said it is you." Lu Yifang didn't even look back and poured cold water on him.
"The agreement states that if you provide information about Locke, we will send him to prison or kill him. However, our report did not mention a single word about this?" Luna raised her head and asked.
"Why should I pay a price when we both win?" Mephisto and Luna locked eyes and finally retreated. "Well, the Dark Book is my reward, and I won't ask for it back, okay?"
"Even if you want to ask for it, it's not easy." Luna sneered. Mephisto's injury has not healed, his clone has rebelled, and the heroes of Hell are all around. How can he have time to take care of the divine book?
Despite this, Luna still ordered Mephisto to add this one rule, which is better than nothing.
"The meaning here is vague and unclear..." In the following half a day, with the wisdom of experts gathered and Luna supervised, countless clauses were added and the oath was finally completed.
"This is the most frustrating appointment I have ever had. As a guest, I almost want to block you." Mephisto said with a worried look on his face.
"It's an honor." Lu Yifang regarded Mephisto's ridicule as praise. "And Locke, when he betrayed you and fled, why did he choose Earth instead of somewhere else? He should know that you were defeated here."
"I can only absorb souls to strengthen myself. What else can I ask for? With their current strength, no one in hell can be my enemy." Mephisto accepted the contract and said proudly.
"Today's Earth is a paradise for demons. The world is filled with confusion, misunderstanding and chaos, like the darkness from night to dawn, and the land is full of food for demons and evil spirits."
Mephisto took a deep breath, feeling intoxicated but also regretful and unwilling. If Locke had not been injured, how could he have jumped like that?
"The earth is certainly not at peace today. The chaos and darkness have not yet reached their extreme." Lu Yifang interjected.
"It's just a matter of perspective. You focus on the material, but the devil focuses on the spiritual. In short, from the devil's point of view, the Renaissance is far better than the two world wars.
Demons love to play tricks on people, and now there are frequent alien visitors and more people with special powers, which has repeatedly impacted people's ideas. Faced with drastic changes, those who are left behind are confused and most likely to be tempted. "
Mephisto glanced at Coulson, Melinda, and even Lu Yifang, and his smile was full of meaning. "You pioneers of the times are also prone to being taken advantage of. Don't forget that the greater the power, the greater the desire."
Even without the temptation of demons, people who suddenly gain great power are prone to inner demons. Human nature is in turmoil and complexity in the midst of drastic changes. Before civilization moves towards the starry sea, the chaos of thoughts is difficult to calm down.
Lu Yifang was lost in thought, but Mephisto came closer and whispered in a demon-tempting voice: "What do you want, the leader of the times of change? What is your deepest thirst?"
“What I desire…?” Lu Yifang chewed over these words, raised his head suddenly, and said firmly: “I desire love!”
Mephisto: "..."
Is this guy here to tease me? This is ridiculous. Mephisto was depressed and decided to put this man on the client blacklist. Although he has unlimited potential and an attractive soul, if he associates with him for a long time, the lord of hell may become depressed.
"You look unwell, but was I wrong?" Seeing Mephisto's embarrassed expression, Lu Yifang showed an "innocent" apologetic smile.
"I'm sorry, as a gentleman, I just follow my heart." Lu Yifang punched the table with a solemn expression. "Don't mention gold, silver, power, what I want is only love. No matter the size, no matter the age, elves, demons, angels, I will gladly accept them. In short, without love, there is no oath!"
Mephisto: "(ノ=Д=)ノ┻━┻!!!"
Pretend, you can pretend! Love? Get out of here! If you dare to call yourself a gentleman, I, as a senior gentleman, will not associate with you!
That’s all I have to say. I won’t discuss this with you anymore. You have been forever blacklisted by hell. Now that this is over, please get away from me as soon as possible. I don’t want to see you again!
