The demon contract was a very dangerous ritual in various myths and stories. The outcome of facing a mysterious creature with a mortal body was generally miserable because mortals had no ability to restrain the demon. Even if the summoning was successful, the situation would be in the hands of the demon.
And demons, this kind of chaotic monster, faced mortals, it was difficult to restrain the impulse to kill and extract the soul. Souls were hard currency in the underworld. This kind of behavior of killing the summoner was like human poachers killing an elephant to pull out its tusks.
It was simply a matter of course.
But now in The Devil Gang, no one knew when it started. The dangerous behavior of contracting demons had become a special "ritual", a proof of strength, a way to enter the real core.
And now The Devil Gang was no longer a pure gang. Their enclosure movement in Mexico was in full swing. Every day, mutated humans who heard the news came from all corners to "Bright Hope" The Devil Gang, and then were thrown into the battlefield in Mexico. The total number of mutated humans in the United States was about 5 million. 60% of them were low-level mutated humans who had a very unhappy life. The Devil Gang did not lack soldiers at all.
The cruel battle with the drug traffickers would make these weaklings grow quickly and eliminate those who were not determined. In the war led by the demon soldiers of The Devil Gang and the mutated humans as the vanguard, they had encircled a quarter of the entire Mexico. The cities there had become the new gathering place of mutated humans.
The UA government was under the pressure of public opinion and had no time to care about the war with neighboring countries. Other forces that intended to enter the war were driven out of the battlefield by The Devil Gang. After obtaining the complete production chain of the bankrupt Hammer Industries, The Devil Gang had completed the transformation from arms dealers to arms producers. They had enough ability to launch a war that swept across the whole of Mexico.
More importantly, in the expansion of the war mode, the mutated humans who followed The Devil Gang were gradually assimilated by The Devil Gang's ideology. With the brotherhood and comradeship as the foundation, a new kind of culture was slowly born.
Building one's own home from scratch was an essential step in the development of culture or civilization … Ahem, I'm getting a little off topic. In short, demonic contracts had been played to perfection by the demons. They had even come up with a list of demonic species to differentiate the different extensions of their abilities for future generations to refer to.
Chaos was coming, and strength was the most important thing. Many people understood this point very clearly.
"Sim has already beaten up a Flame Demon Overlord over there. Pull its soul over!"
At Saber's command, Angela and Isabella raised their hands at the same time. With the support of the two Fragments of Desire, a temporary portal to hell was quickly built. In an instant, Coulson's basement was filled with the smell of sulfur from hell. The only normal human present, Madam Audrey, coughed violently.
In less than two seconds, the cries of souls and chaotic aura from hell stopped. A Flame Spirit with flames all over its body appeared in the basement, raising the surrounding temperature to an unbearable level. Saber's eyes flashed. The wanton burning flames were forcibly suppressed. Even the Flame Demon's soul was suppressed.
In front of the phoenix's flames, a mere Flame Demon was really nothing.
As Hell's Walkers, the two sisters grabbed the distorted body of the Flame Demon's soul at the same time and dragged it towards Kevin Turner, who was already on the verge of death. The magic circle beneath their feet emitted an intertwining orange and dark green halo. Angela took out the contract scroll that she had personally written and cut open Kevin's finger. Isabella raised her blade and pulled out a trace of the Flame Demon's soul. Then, she pressed it onto the surface of the contract.
The moment Kevin's blood dripped onto the surface of the contract, the contract began to burn rapidly. The two sisters took a step back and placed their hands on Kevin's body to stabilize the fusion process.
However, just as they said, Kevin's soul was already very weak. He was obviously at a disadvantage in this fight for souls. But it didn't matter. Saber was here!
"I command you!"
Saber stretched out his left hand and an orange flame spear appeared in it. The sharp and scorching tip of the spear was pressed against the heart of the struggling Flame Demon.
"I command you! Submit to the soul in front of you! Otherwise, your body and soul will be destroyed! "
The ring of flames in his eyes surged with the power of the Eyes of Repentance. He emphasized, "You know that I have this ability! Submit! Or die! "
The Flame Demon was a very special demon in hell. It was essentially more like an elemental creature than an ordinary demon of flesh and blood. However, its soul was no different from the souls of other demons. As an elemental creature that could control fire, it was completely suppressed when it encountered a cheat-like fire controller like Saber. It was very unwilling to submit to that weak soul, but under the threat of death, it had no choice but to lower its arrogant head.
In hell, the Berserker Demon Lord Sim's claws were placed on its burning core. With a light scratch, Saber's threat of destruction was definitely not just a verbal threat.
Every living being cherished their lives, and even demons were no exception to this.
Seeing the Flame Demon's soul fuse into Kevin's body, Saber heaved a sigh of relief. A ball of flames enveloped Kevin's body, and the power of the demon began to repair the damage to his body.
Yes, another use of the demon contract was that it could repair the body. Even broken limbs and paralysis could be healed by special types of demons. It could also share the mysterious knowledge in the demon's mind and completely demonize to strengthen its combat strength. Other than being bitten by the demon residing in the body if one was not careful, it was almost a very profitable business.
This was also why so many people had been addicted to summoning demons since ancient times. Who would do something that did not benefit them?
Saber stepped forward, stretched out his hand to push aside the flame cocoon, and lifted Kevin's eyelids. A serious ring of flames burst out. Of course, this was not to judge Kevin. Saber needed Kevin's last memory to determine the truth of this matter.
Hum!
Unconscious people had no resistance to this kind of soul infiltration. Saber easily entered Kevin's soul. The memories he saw were scattered, like disordered pictures. This scene made Saber's heart sink. It seemed that the explosion of the particle accelerator had indeed affected Kevin's mind.
He began to flip through the images. Kevin's memory was a little muddled after he woke up. He was only living on his original instincts and could not even use the power he was given. Saber saw the image of him being taken away by the military, and then came the most important thing.
Amidst the screams, Kevin saw a flash of yellow lightning rushing into the underground prison. With a sharp light, the imprisoned people around him were swept into a bloody storm, including him. But just as the sharp blade pierced his body, Kevin instinctively activated his ability.
The most important part of his internal organs turned into mist, and he avoided the fatal blow. However, the yellow flash was too fast, and his body was eventually damaged. He fell into a pool of blood, and his vision was dark.
"Reverse Lightning again!"
Saber frowned and exited Kevin's mind. He did not get much useful information, but it was enough to prove that this matter had little to do with The Flash. Or rather, Barry Allen was used again.
"Is … is it over?"
Little Witch Walter looked at the magic circle in front of her slowly extinguishing. As a mutant who specialized in magic, this was the first time she had really experienced a magic scene. This immediately piqued her interest. She turned to Saber and pointed at the summoning circle in front of her.
"Can I learn it?"
Saber, Coulson, and Green Arrow Oliver shared a cigar. Coulson turned to look at Walter and shrugged.
"These things are fully recorded in Professor Hawkins' laboratory. You can look it up at any time. Not only the knowledge of magic circles, but also the complete Law of the Fallen Magic system from hell, the black magic system from Eastern Europe, and the Ninjutsu magic system from Japan. It's a mysterious library."
He chuckled.
"Of course, it's not as good as Kamar-Taj's library."
"Awesome!"
Little Witch cheered. Behind her, Quicksilver Pietro was also a little tempted, but the others were focused on another aspect.
"About the explosion caused by The Flash and the military … and the internal massacre."
Coulson started the conversation and glanced at Seiber's expression.
"It's hard to say what the internal connection is, but my opinion is that this should be a sophisticated framing. The guy behind this has almost grasped two of your Achilles' heel … If it weren't for Kevin's accidental survival and the tragic deaths of your brothers, I think you and Barry Allen would be in an irreconcilable relationship."
"Barry isn't a threat, and I never suspected him at all. I've entered his soul. This little saint wouldn't do such a thing. Now I'm just thinking, why would Reverse Lightning do this? The one who suddenly appeared, the one who is a hundred times more dangerous than Lightning. I've never even seen him before! "
Seiber snorted. Coulson reorganized his words and continued speaking.
"To be honest, I can't think of a reasonable reason. He seems to be just trying to make you and The Flash fight to the death? But there's one thing we can be sure of. "
Coulson blinked and emphasized his words.
"There's a mysterious connection between him and The Flash. There are still many mysteries. For example, when Barry was a child, he saw two flying lights. One was Reverse Lightning, then who was the other? Another example is the battle between him and The Flash that night. He didn't hurt The Flash at all. Instead, he wanted to take him away from you … To be honest, Saber, I have a very strange idea. "
"Hmm?"
Seiber looked at Coulson. Coulson was completely trustworthy due to his soul. Under Seiber's gaze, Coulson said in a low voice, "Let's go.
"I feel that Reverse Lightning doesn't mean to hurt Barry Allen at all. He just wants to pull The Flash away from you. He seems to be afraid, yes, afraid of him coming into contact with you!"
"That's a bit hard to understand."
Saber turned to look at Oliver, "Am I a person who's difficult to get close to? Or, why are they always afraid of coming into contact with me? "
Oliver shrugged. He didn't want to answer this question too much. Coulson snorted and tapped his finger on the table in front of him.
"The most important thing now is to lure him out. We still have to start with The Flash."
"Well, I've found a way to deal with them, but not now. We still have to wait for a helper."
Saber leaned on the sofa. There was a flash of impatience in his eyes.
"This feeling of being in the middle of a conspiracy is simply annoying. Let's quickly solve the problem here and go to New York … The Ten Rings gang doesn't seem to understand the value of life. Maybe in their eyes, we're just bugs that they can get rid of easily. I think we have the responsibility to change their wrong thinking. At the same time, we can teach them that there are some things that they can't do."
Saber stubbed out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray. A ferocious look flashed across his face.
"If you've done it, you have to pay the price!"
