Superhero Comic – Overlord’s Path

6. Investor Mephistopheles

It was like an out-of-bounds bar in another world, and the atmosphere was somewhat weird.

Especially after the clown left the field, Seber and the old man were left with big eyes and small eyes. Selena, who was sitting on the side, was a little confused. The clown is dead. There is no doubt, but who is the one who just appeared?

Cyber ​​now desperately needed some tobacco to calm himself down, so he took the cigar in his hand and put it to his mouth. The old man sitting across from him flashed like magma in his eyes, and a ball of flame jumped into Cyber. Seeing the perfect cigar lit in his hand, Seber shrugged.

"Nice ability, ha... you called him over and talked about a bunch of useless things, but he still didn't tell me, who are you?"

Facing this problem, the old man maintained the correct sitting posture. He held the jade skull cane in his hand and looked at Saibo’s face and the seemingly relaxed smile on his face. Finally, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"You don’t have to be so vigilant, Cyber, your vigilance is meaningless to me. In this world, my power may not hurt you. This is not my world. Since the damn agreement was completed, I It takes very troublesome means to enter here, and there is a very annoying guy who chases me all the time...just as annoying as a hunting dog chasing its prey."

He moved his gaze away from Saibo, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at Selena who was sitting on the side. When that gaze turned around, Miss Thief felt like an ice cave, and even the soul seemed to be frozen. Ruoyouruowu's various voices sounded in her ears, seeming to tempt her to fall into a deeper abyss. Fortunately, this gaze lasted less than 2 seconds, the old man said softly,

"You can call me Mephistopheles, I personally prefer this name."

Saibo's eyes suddenly became weird, he put the cigar in his hand aside and flicked it, and asked curiously,

"The Mephistopheles that Faust met?"

The old man glanced at him, with a mysterious smile, he said,

"That's an interesting mortal, why? Do you want to meet him? That's one of my best collections."

"Is the clown the latest?"

Saibo asked back, "Then your taste is really bad...My Lord Mephisto."

"Boom"

The thunderstorm outside the window was even more intense. Saibo turned his head and looked at the window, looking out the window from the filthy window, and he could see two thunder-like objects chasing each other in the dim sky, pushing the heavy cloud from the innermost side. Illuminated, Mephistopheles glanced there in disgust,

"The annoying guy is here again, God, she doesn't even want me to stay in this warm world for a second... then let's make a long story short, Cyber."

Mephistopheles' expression became solemn,

"I need you to help me get something. The clown has already said that it was originally mine. Someone stole it. The San Van Gonzal contract, a little thing worth mentioning, but it's about My face, you won't let me down, will you?"

"Can I refuse?"

Saibo drew his cigar and leaned on the chair and changed to a more comfortable posture. He swallowed the fog, opened his hands, and whispered, "The same thing that makes big people like you feel tricky. I don't think I am a Ordinary people can do all this, if it is really as simple as what you said, I don’t think it will be more difficult than you seduce Faust... but it’s not really like that, is it? I’m taking a risk , But I don’t see a reason to take the risk."

Facing this kind of unceremonious rebuttal, Mephistopheles did not furiously. He just stretched out his left hand with black gloves and flicked it gently in the air, as if plucking a string.

Saibo's face became painful for a moment. The cigar in his hand smashed on the table. He felt his body's internal organs twitched to the most violent at this moment, and he could even feel the rapid collapse of the gene chain that had turned well. among,

He could feel that the deformity hidden in the body was about to start again. Selena screamed and wanted to rush over to help, but was fixed in place by Mephistopheles’ eyes, he looked like a bug. Saibo, rolling in pain on the ground, tapped his cane on the ground,

"You still think you have the right to refuse...Of course, of course you do, but don’t forget, Cyber, death has always been very close to you. I can tell you responsibly that this world can save you. Your existence is very rare, will you reject me? Tell me, will you reject an immortal existence that has extended a friendly hand toward you?"

"Hehe, I don't think so..."

He stood up and adjusted his well-made clothes. He took out a golden scroll wrapped in black goatskin from his arms. From the outside, the thing was like a work of art out of time. He put the thing on the table and said to Saibo, who was slowly recovering from the pain, his eyes were full of indifferent indifference, like a giant looking at a desperately struggling ant.

"I don’t think you’re going to be a foolish man, Cyber, you can’t lie to me, give you a piece of advice, even if you want to sell your soul, you have to find someone who can afford the price. The hypocrites are confused in the pursuit. , But you will eventually realize that there is a right way before you. When you make up your mind, sign your name. Selling your soul sounds scary, but in fact, you gain more than you lose. Much."

Mephistopheles walked slowly towards the door of the bar like an old-fashioned gentleman. He said softly as if reciting a poem.

"Hold on it, you will add new strength to do big things, and you will naturally be open-minded... I hope that when we meet next time, you have already made a choice, Cyber ​​Hawke, you will be my best One of the warriors."

He turned his head and buttoned his gentleman's hat, the orange flame ring in his eyes lit up, and a red flame appeared on Cyber's forehead, and finally imprinted in his eyes.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

Saber covered his eyes and rolled frantically on the ground. His left fist was clenched and smashed on the ground fiercely. With just two strokes, the floor was completely smashed, but there was no way to stop the pain from spreading. , As if ignited, two plumes of burning smoke escaped from his closed eyes, like two fireballs were placed in his eye sockets.

Mephistopheles nodded in satisfaction, he coughed slightly.

"As I said, I am an investor. When I watch the world tremble because of your power, and cry because of your cruelty, it means my investment is successful. At that time, I will choose to realize it. Or invest more...Let me see your value and get me back that contract. When the hell on earth truly stands up, you will get my most generous award..."

"Boom"

Once again thunder rang out, and the pale light pulled Mephistopheles’ shadow out of the old man. Those trembling wings flapped in the shadow, and there was a lighted flame in it. Just looking at it would make People feel dizzy.

"I will wait with hope in my heart..."

His figure was standing behind the frantically swinging wooden door, under the stormy clouds, he looked up at the black cloud above his head that crushed everything, he shook his head, and his body slowly dissipated in the wind like floating sand. At the moment he left, all the dark clouds, all the storms, all the thunders slowly dissipated at this moment, and a warm sun pierced the dense clouds like a sword, casting its warmth on the earth. In the middle, then quickly opened, and finally swallowed all the haze in one bite.

Selena walked to the door of the bar tremblingly, she reached out and held the door frame, looked up at the door, a barren desert, without the slightest anger, but it looked like two completely different worlds.

"Ahem..."

Seber’s painful cough awakened Selena from the shock. She ran back to the house, helped Seber from the ground and let him sit on a chair. Every time her eyes swept across the table. Scroll, she would feel the bone-chilling chill, and Saibo didn't speak, he kept his eyes closed, just from the facial expression, he could see his pain.

"We really shouldn't be here, right?"

Saibo told Selena that the latter nodded vigorously. She took Seber by the shoulder and looked at the thing on the table. She whispered,

"Let's go now and throw it here, no one will know all this."

"late."

Saber fumbled on the table with his hands, found his cigar, lit it, he took a breath of smoke and turned to look at Selena.

"It's too late, silly girl... We are like children who know nothing about reality, just broke into this gorgeous world. You are still the same you, but I... It's me."

He slowly opened his eyes, and Selena immediately let out a scream. She backed away in horror and threw the table behind and the bottles and cans on the table everywhere.

"God! God..."

What kind of eyes are those? If the red light that throbbed before just made Cyber ​​look a little weird and looked a little scary when he was emotional, then his eyes now seemed to be soaked in burning blood. Once again, it was like two pulsating substantive flames, with two deeper dark red eyes dotted in them.

When those eyes looked directly at Selena, she could feel a sense of being spied, there was no secret at all, straight into the soul, that was the substantive power of existence, especially when Cyber ​​did not converge those eyes. The power of, the pressure on Selena grew more and more, like two dark red vortexes attracting her to fall into them constantly, making her dazzled, and finally she moved her eyes with difficulty, but that The strength still made her limp on the chair panting.

"What the hell is this... what the hell is this?"

She struggled against that power, and she asked with difficulty, "What did you see...?"

On the other side, Saibo’s expression was a little weird. He was stunned for several seconds before he closed his eyes in embarrassment and coughed slightly.

"Ahem, black suits you well..."

This sentence made Selena stunned. What she is wearing today is a lavender dress and a burgundy coat... black?Black is...

"Damn it!"

Miss Thief jumped up from the ground, clutching her chest and cursed, "Indecent ability!"

Saibo touched his nose and waved a little embarrassedly.

"Go and start the car, we leave this ghost place."

Selena gave him an angry look, turned around and rushed out of the bar. The closed wooden door made a loud noise, which represented the unhappy mood of Miss Thief, but after she left, Saibo slowly Opening his eyes, he reached out and picked up the scroll Mephistopheles had placed on the table. He seemed to want to open it, but in the end he couldn't make up his mind...

And Selena, Mephistopheles certainly can't just give Cyber ​​a pair of eyes with perspective ability, that is the famous devil in history, how could his investment be so simple...

What he sees is not just the seductive underwear, what he sees is more substantial, part of her memory, her emotions, her life, like a picture album stacked in front of him, he can almost easily Seeing her past memories and the dark power entwining Selena’s soul.

It's like a stack of wood... you only need a spark to be completely ignited.

"Is that a sin that can be burned? Or is it a...soul that can be burned?"

He stretched out his hand and wiped his closed eyes. He now feels the reality of this world more and more. For him, the world was a bit too wonderful at the moment, and the hell contract...
