You see, when people thought they could control everything, reality often played a joke on them. For example, this scene.
The Lord of Hell, Mephithos, who also had the title of Lord of Lies, didn't make as impressive an entrance as the Fallen Angel Lucifer.
He didn't use a black energy feather to give himself a flashy opening, nor did he use any pretentious actions or words. For him, who worked for death, he didn't have any. For someone who worked for death, everything in this world would fall silent and die.
Therefore, when it wasn't necessary, Mephithos always kept a low profile that didn't match his identity. In other words, a good liar's greatest weapon was to keep a low profile and convince others.
Mephistopheles had done a great job in this regard. Like an old gentleman who had returned from afar (he always dressed like this), he slowly walked over from the gap between the two craters.
"Seems like Lan's formation didn't work." Li Jie glanced at Lan from afar and found that she was injured. There were traces of blood at the corner of her mouth, and she looked a little dispirited.
"Lan, what's wrong?" Li Jie couldn't help but ask about Lan's injuries through the communicator because she seemed to be seriously injured.
"It's not a big problem, just a small spell backlash. Lucifer doesn't seem to have the intention to hurt me, "Lan said as she let out a breath of turbid air. Lan spat out a mouthful of impure air. From her voice, it seemed that Lan's injuries were not that serious.
Just now, Lucifer had managed to injure Lan without batting an eyelid. This was indeed very surprising. This also cast a shadow over Li Jie's heart.
"As a demon, why don't you reveal your true form? Instead, you're using your human disguise? "Lucifer saw Mephithos coming from afar, and he seemed to be a little afraid.
Lucifer left Johnny Blaze's side and returned to Balrog's side. However, after spitting out that mouthful of scorching lava blood, the Flame Devil looked a little dispirited and listless.
On the other side, Kim Pyong made a surprising move. In this Hell, where danger lurked in every corner, he actually took off his armor and walked towards Lucifer as a mortal.
Moreover, he performed a strange salute towards Lucifer. The salute was very exaggerated and strange. This reminded Li Jie of the voodoo sects in the southern part of the United States.
It was a sect that specialized in worshiping all kinds of strange evil gods.
"Looks like we're in a bad spot." Peter Parker's Spider Sense was about to explode. He spoke through his communicator.
"Yes, that's why we need another backup plan. Tony? "Li Jie said to Tony through the communicator. "Have you prepared the killer weapon you mentioned?"
"Of course, I've always been prepared. Although I didn't really want to use it, who knew how much damage it would cause. However, if it's Hell, I think I can try using it. "Tony's tone was a little serious.
On the other side.
"I didn't expect you to believe in the Fallen Angel." Dum looked at Kim Pyong's actions and said with a slight tease. "Do you want the Holy Kingdom you convert to after you die to be Hell?"
Although Dum already knew that Kim Pyong and Lucifer were in contact, he didn't expect Kim Pyong to convert to Lucifer.
And it wasn't just him. Even the Onmyojis and Hand seemed to have changed their beliefs. They did a uniform action and seemed to have become Lucifer's believers.
"Yes, this lord is a true god, and he's not that hypocritical." Kim Pyong didn't take Dum's teasing to heart. Of course, to be honest, if it was possible, Kim Pyong didn't want to contact Lucifer at this time.
Yes, he was the one who contacted Lucifer. It wasn't because there was a problem with Lan's magic circle that Lucifer discovered.
The Balrog was Lucifer's high-level demon pet. Summoning the Balrog was equivalent to notifying Lucifer. Especially when he was in Hell.
The summoning of the Balrog was due to the appearance of Li Jie and the others, which messed up Kim Pyong's plan. Now, all of Kim Pyong's plans couldn't be carried out because Lucifer's appearance wasn't part of his plan. In other words, he shouldn't have appeared at this time.
Although Kim Pyong had told Lucifer that he needed to go to Hell, he didn't know that Lucifer would come to Hell.
[B-rank mission, Stop Kim Pyong's Ambition. Mission completed. The Host will randomly receive a B-rank item.] The long-lost system voice appeared in Li Jie's mind.
[At the same time, the system sincerely notifies the Host that with the Host's current strength, Hell is extremely dangerous. Please leave this place as soon as possible.]
"Hmm?" The mission was completed just like that? Li Jie was a little confused. Why did Kim Pyong's mission complete when Lucifer appeared?
Could it be that Kim Pyong's ambition wasn't to unify the underworld in the real world, but to plot against a demon in Hell? Perhaps Kim Pyong's trip to Hell should have been kept secret, but in the end, he had no choice but to leak it, causing his plan to fail. Kingpin's guts were simply too big!
"So this human is your friend?" Lucifer didn't seem to blame Doom for his tone. Instead, he asked Kim Pyong with interest.
"Yes, to a certain extent," Kim Pyong said respectfully.
"Then why did you come to Hell, and why did you guys fight in Hell?" Lucifer looked around at Li Jie, Doom, and the others.
"Although there are all kinds of meaningless battles in Hell every day, and many demons die, it's rare for humans to use Hell as a battlefield." But it's rare for humans to use Hell as a battlefield. "Lucifer seemed to be very interested in it.
"Maybe I can explain, Lucifer. This Mr. Doom should be looking for me. " Mephithos didn't reveal his demonic form. He was still moving around in the image of an old human gentleman.
Although he seemed to be walking slowly, he was surprisingly fast when he arrived at Doom's side.
"Mr. Doom, it seems like your purpose in coming to Hell is for your mother's soul? If I'm not wrong, does this mean you agree to my previous suggestion? " Does this mean that you agree to my previous suggestion? "Li Jie did not know why, but he felt that there was a hint of anticipation in Morpheus' tone.
On Li Jie's side.
"Seems like we've been completely ignored," Tony said to his companions through the communicator. He wasn't someone who liked to be ignored. He preferred to stand in the middle of the stage and enjoy the spotlight.
"Don't you think it's a good thing that we're being ignored?" Li Jie smiled indifferently.
"I think what you said makes sense." Tony thought about it. He didn't want to be targeted by two demons, so the best way was to keep a low profile.
Doom said.
"I still can't agree to your conditions, Mephithos. But I can give you something you want. "Doom's answer disappointed Mephithos.
"There are 350,000 souls here. I know you've been collecting them. I'm willing to exchange 350,000 souls for my mother's soul. I hope you can set her free. "Doom took out three similar metal balls from the box on his waist.
It was a special soul imprisonment device.
"Haha." Mephithos seemed to be amused by Doom. The old gentleman laughed so hard he couldn't straighten his back. Tears flowed down his cheeks.
The others didn't know what he was laughing at.
"Professor Doom, I think you haven't understood something." Mephithos finally stopped his hysterical laughter. "Any deal with the devil can only be made by the devil. You don't have the right to make a deal with me. Don't challenge my patience, Professor! "
Mephithos emphasized the last sentence to show that he wasn't joking.
"Mephitos, please understand this Archdemon as well. No one has ever threatened Doom. Never. Please don't challenge my patience. " Doom's tone was as cold as ice. He didn't seem to care about this powerful Lord of Hell at all.
"If you're not satisfied with this deal, I think you'll be satisfied with the next one."
"What is it?"
"Either release my mother, or let me blow up hell to the heavens. Choose one, Great Demon. You must understand that Doom always does what he says. "
There was an opening in the area that was surrounded by a group of bodyguards, and a huge box could be seen surrounded by them.
Doom's tone was very serious. He didn't seem to be joking. It seemed like he really prepared a weapon that could blow up hell.
Li Jie and Tony looked at each other from afar and whistled at the same time.
"Looks like Doom is a madman." Li Jie sighed.
"But you're not bad either." Tony complained. "Don't forget who made me make the same thing."
"I just want to maintain my deterrence."
