Words:1969Update:22/06/22 12:11:46
Johnny Blaze lived in a house by the sea in Los Angeles. He was a famous guy in the American stunt motorcycle show industry.
His parents, his family, and his friends. They were all famous people in the circle. Ever since he was young, he had lived in a world filled with the smell of lubricants and gasoline.
He was used to the roar and roar of motorcycles. He was also used to driving modified cars and leaping hundreds of feet into the air.
The cheers of the audience and the flashing lights were all that mattered to him. Back then, he had gained both fame and fortune. At that moment, he felt that he owned the whole world.
Until a few years ago, when everything changed.
Johnny was no longer the star he used to be on TV. Now, he looked unkempt and slovenly.
His long hair was loose, and he had stubble. And his hazy eyes, which were always half-drunk and half-awake.
He placed the Chivas Regal whiskey casually by his feet. He accidentally kicked it, and the bottle toppled over. The amber liquid flowed down the glass and onto the floor.
The floor made of pear wood was wet from the wine.
"Are you sure you're not looking for the wrong person?" In another building, Li Jie was using a head-mounted monitor with a high magnification effect to observe Johnny through the window.
"If the information you provided is correct, then he should be the person you're looking for," Peter Parker said with certainty.
"Is he really Ghost Rider with his cowardly look? I heard that Ghost Rider is very powerful. Didn't you and Iron Fist work together back then, but you still couldn't deal with him? "
Li Jie felt a sharp pain in his teeth. Why did he run into another drunkard?
Johnny Blaze was the target Li Jie was looking for. He was one of Ghost Rider's guides to Hell.
He was also the male lead of Ghost Rider that Li Jie had watched in his previous life. It wasn't difficult to find him, since Johnny had been famous in America a few years ago.
He had also been on the cover of various motorcycle magazines. Although he was very dispirited now, his appearance hadn't changed.
His vigilance is too poor. I can't tell that he's Ghost Rider at all. Li Jie suddenly wondered if it had been a mistake to look for Johnny.
"Should we pay them a visit?" Peter Parker asked.
"Yes, we'd better verify the authenticity of this guy." Li Jie nodded.
In recent years, Johnny had stopped performing stunts because life had lost its meaning to him. He wanted to die, but he couldn't.
Because he had signed a long-term contract with the demon Mephisto. He could not die until his years of service were up.
Because the Grim Reaper had already struck his name off the Book of Death.
Moreover, it was likely that after he completed his term of service and died, his soul would still not be redeemed. Because this was a long-lasting curse, cursed in the bloodline of the Blaze Family.
Johnny didn't like all of this. It could be said that he hated it very much. But sometimes he had to work for Mephisto.
Whether he liked it or not. If he didn't do something, Mephistos wouldn't mind taking something away from him.
For example, the life of his lover or friend. So now, Johnny had almost become a person who cut off all contact with his friends.
He left his friends and lover and cut off all possible social ties. It was like a tiger that had exiled itself.
Ferocious and sorrowful.
Tired, Johnny fell onto the sofa and reached for the Chivas Regal bottle. But he didn't touch it.
"Damn it." He cursed in a low voice. He had just kicked the bottle of wine. The liquor flowed all over the floor.
His life now was to get himself half drunk every day. Only when he was in a daze could he forget that there was another soul in his body.
A vengeful spirit named Zatanos, powerful and terrifying.
The past few days were probably the most relaxing days Johnny had experienced in the past few years. Mephisto had suddenly disappeared for some reason.
This gave Johnny a rare moment of leisure. He didn't have to go out every day to collect souls for Mephisto.
And his reward for his leisurely life was to pour more alcohol into his mouth.
Johnny patted his smelly head and was about to pick up the bottle and pour himself a big mouthful of liquor.
Just as he was about to touch the bottle, a white spider silk beat him to it.
It stuck the bottle directly and took it away with lightning speed.
"Hey, buddy, drunk? Is this what you're looking for? "Peter Parker said in a slightly mocking voice.
At the same time, he shook the bottle in his hand proudly.
He was like a bully in elementary school who used his size to steal toys from his classmates.
"Mr. Johnny. I'm sorry we have to meet like this. "Li Jie stood beside Peter.
"But I think it's better if we talk when you're sober."
"Who are you two?" Johnny said as his hand reached for the holster on his waist.
There was a revolver loaded with six cartridges.
"Oh, sir, I think it's better if we confiscate your weapon first. It looks like you're dangerous and hot-tempered. "Peter was one step ahead of Johnny again.
He used the spider silk to take the gun from Johnny's waist along with the holster. This made Johnny frown slightly, but he didn't show any more panicked expression.
"Listen, I don't care who you two are. Put down my gun and liquor and get out of my house." Johnny didn't look like he was joking.
"Since I haven't lost my temper yet, you definitely don't want to see me when I'm angry."
"Is it because you'll turn into a burning skull?" Peter continued to mock him.
"To be honest, I'd like to see it. A burning skull, a Ghost Rider, I haven't really seen them before. "
Peter's words made Johnny's pain contract violently. He clenched his fists unconsciously.
"Who the hell are you two?" His words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
It was obvious that Johnny was starting to get angry. Also, Li Jie didn't know if it was his imagination, but for some reason, he felt that there was a hint of fear in Johnny's words.
What was Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze afraid of? Li Jie didn't know. He thought it was his imagination.
"We want to talk to you about Hell and Mephisto." Li Jie wouldn't look Ghost Rider in the eye.
From Kamateki's records, he knew how terrifying Ghost Rider's eyes were.
"But please let us confirm your true identity first."
"Why should I listen to you?"
"What if I say that this is a chance to help you escape Mephisto's control?"
Li Jie's words made Johnny think. "It's not fun to deceive a Ghost Rider. Do you understand the consequences? "
"I'm in the mood, Johnny Blaze. I'm not in the mood to joke with you. Let me see what you're capable of. "Li Jie's words were very serious.
"Okay, I think I might be able to show you." There was a playful smile on Johnny's lips.
Johnny looked like he was ready to show Li Jie what he was capable of. But he suddenly said, "Oh, yes.
"By the way, say hello to Lucifer for me." This sentence was said without any warning.
