Chapter 1014: Identity certificate issued by Ghost Rider, Mephisto's new mission

Gaius sighed quietly, then walked towards the red spider lily covered with fresh soil.

However, as soon as he turned around, a flame ignited in the skull's pupil.

The bony hand in the black glove trembled, grabbed the skull and pressed it against the neck.

Gada!

A crisp sound was unusually clear in the woods shrouded in the night. Gaius, who had just picked up the red spider lily, felt his heart skip a beat and subconsciously turned his head to look.

The Ghost Rider slowly stood up, and the fire of hell burned fiercely on his head again.

"S-Shit!"

Gaius' heart was pounding as he stared at him blankly.

He had tried every possible means, but it seemed that he had no way to deal with this immortal body.

Wow!

The Ghost Rider swung the chain with hellfire attached to it, and under Gaius' horrified gaze, he whipped the motorcycle parked not far away.

boom!

Chains were wrapped around the vehicle body, and the hellfire released extremely high temperatures, so that even a motorcycle that had been enchanted with alchemy melted into molten iron at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Ghost Rider seemed a little dissatisfied with the progress, and immediately swung the chain fiercely, splitting the motorcycle into two parts with brute force.

Then he started to smash things around to vent his anger, turning the car that had accompanied Aaron for three years into a pile of scrap parts.

"It's over now." Gaius murmured bitterly. It didn't matter that he couldn't win, but now he didn't have the tools to escape. What was the difference between him and the fish on the chopping board?

Sure enough, the next moment the chains flew towards him and bound him tightly in place.

"Now let me see how you run." Ghost Rider laughed hoarsely and took a step forward.

The indiscriminate bombardment just now almost made him doubt his life. Fortunately, he was immortal. If it were an ordinary person, he would have died at least hundreds of times.

Now the chance for revenge has come. Even if one has a pure soul, it is impossible that he has never done anything bad.

But once you do it, you cannot escape his eyes of judgment. He will have the final say on whether you are guilty and what the punishment is.

"Are you going to kill me?" Gaius's face was calm, and he did not struggle in vain.

"No, I just want to confirm your identity and let you experience some pain." Ghost Rider said bluntly, then grabbed Gaius by the collar and lifted him up, "Look into my eyes!"

Gaius subconsciously looked at the empty eye sockets. The fire of hell was spinning and burning, as if it could devour everything.

Countless memories surged wildly in his mind, flashing by like slides under the Ghost Rider's eye of judgment.

After a few seconds, a hint of humanized astonishment and surprise appeared on Ghost Rider's skull face.

He really didn't expect that Gaius was so weird. He had never done a bad thing since he was a child, and even said every word with a clear conscience.

Damn it! This person is definitely the one chosen by heaven. Even the angels have to bow to him before leaving.

"Uh..." Gaius seemed to understand something and smiled awkwardly, "Thank you for letting me see the memories that I had forgotten, but can you put me down now?"

Ghost Rider gently put Gaius down, untied the chains and said, "You are innocent, and you are not him."

"This is what you call confirming your identity. It's really inexplicable." Gaius snorted and cursed, "I have never suffered such a loss since I was a child. I tell you that I will not let this go.

You destroyed my motorcycle, which made me nervous, but you shouldn't have appeared in the orphanage. Do you know how much harm you have caused to the young and fragile hearts of those children?"

"Sorry." Ghost Rider said this, then rode away on the Soul Chariot.

"Tsk! If apologies are useful, what do we need the police for?"

......

Gaius's Divination House, Secret Room.

Hela looked at the scene in the mirror in confusion, and her face twitched uncontrollably.

Having lived for thousands of years, she thought she had a pretty good mentality, but now her defenses are really broken.

“This... is totally off the mark.

Ghost Rider, the messenger of Mephisto, can actually feel compassion?"

"Why not?" Aaron pretended to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Let me ask you, is there any demon with a conscience who is in darkness and yearns for light who can withstand such a test?

As expected of me, my acting was so thorough and to the point."

"Master." Jian interrupted with a dry laugh, "This shouldn't be an act! His body, soul, and memories were all shaped by you personally, but he doesn't know it."

Aaron:......

"Ahem! It's worthy of being a work of art created by me. It really didn't disappoint me!"

“Do you want to have some shame?” Hela looked at him with disdain. “If your character is half as good as his…”

"Then I would have been eaten up long ago without leaving even a trace." Aaron responded bluntly.

Hela’s expression froze and she was speechless.

After all, she is the goddess of death who emerged from a sea of ​​blood and corpses. She knows very well that the multiverse only looks at strength, not character.

“But none of this matters. What matters is that I have successfully avoided the sight from hell.

I can finally have some peace and quiet, it's not easy." Aaron smiled sincerely, and then silently opened the task panel.

[Deceived the messenger of the demon Mephisto;

Completing the mission rewards 800 magic points; there is no penalty for mission failure; Completed]

"receive."

"Congratulations to the host for completing the mission and obtaining 800 magic points."

This is another income. I can save up some more and go shopping in the mall.

Aaron thought happily, and suddenly Frank's pleading voice rang in his ears.

God of the Contract;

The ancient and noble inheritor;

Creator of the mind, master of shadows...

"what happened again?"

"Master, how did you do it?" Frank asked with curiosity.

After inducing Ghost Rider to enter the orphanage, he had been following and observing from a distance, and he had seen everything Gaius did tonight.

Everything seemed particularly natural, without any flaws, but he still couldn't figure out how Gaius deceived the eyes of the Ghost Rider.

"Magic." Aaron said concisely, "I know a lot of magic, and there is magic that can deal with this situation.

As for more specifics, it’s better for you not to know.”

"By the way, keep a close eye on Nick Fury.

He must be too idle to dare to set his sights on me. I must find him something to do, otherwise I will not be able to swallow this anger. "

"Yes."

......

S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters, Tri-Wing Building.

Nick Fury was watching the surveillance footage from the satellite when he suddenly shuddered.

"Agent Hill, please turn up the air conditioning temperature."

Hill pressed the remote control a few times speechlessly, "Fury, is your plan considered a success?"

"Very successful." Nick Fury smiled calmly, "Aaron said he would not let it go, which means he has already thought of revenge."

"But..." Hill hesitated for a moment, and said, "Why do I feel like he was talking to us?"

Nick Fury's face twitched, "That shouldn't be the case!

We didn't do anything, we just asked Frank to do some induction, and he might not be able to associate it with S.H.I.E.L.D."

"Maybe!" Hill consoled himself, then looked at the screen, "Fury, do you think Aaron's performance tonight was a little off?"

"What's wrong?"

"I can't explain it, but I just have this feeling." Hill thought for a while and suddenly grasped the key point, "Sense of justice. Yes, he is more just than usual and cares more about the weak."

"It's like he's been possessed by Steve Rogers." Nick Fury thought thoughtfully, "Agent Hill, if it were any other time, Aaron would definitely pretend that he didn't see anything.

But he is in the orphanage tonight, and Ghost Rider specifically is looking for him. Based on our understanding of him, it would be normal for him not to retreat.

He has no sense of justice, but he does have a sense of responsibility.”

"That's true."

“What I’m more concerned about is Ghost Rider’s attitude towards him.

The more than seventy Gaius Ghost Riders in front were all disdainful and attacked directly.

But this one...actually made Ghost Rider a little polite."

"There may be other reasons, but it is certain that the Gaius that Ghost Rider is looking for is not him."

"Yeah! It's not him." Nick Fury felt a little regretful for some reason. "I was a little skeptical about him. After all, he is very special, but now it seems that I thought too much."

......

When the sun rises, the first ray of sunlight falls on the earth.

The Soul Chariot stopped in an empty field. The hellfire on the body of the motorcycle faded away, and it turned back into a cool ordinary motorcycle.

The hellfire on Ghost Rider's body was quickly extinguished, and flesh and blood filled his skeleton again, but the process seemed very painful, forcing him to lie on the ground and roar in pain.

Wisps of green smoke dissipated from his body, and the Ghost Rider turned into a sturdy man, breathing in deep gulps of fresh air.

Johnny Blaze, a motorcycle stuntman, signed a contract with the devil Mephisto in order to cure his father's cancer and became Ghost Rider.

Mephisto did heal his father, but he did not guarantee that he would not die.

Before Johnny could react to the joy of his father's recovery, his father lost his life on the stage. It can only be said that the devil's means of manipulating people's hearts are extremely sophisticated.

At this moment, a low, sinister laugh suddenly reached his ears. Johnny immediately got up and glanced around with cold eyes.

An old man holding a black umbrella slowly walked over from a distance, "Hello, Johnny."

"It's you, stay away from me."

"It's too late to say that." Mephisto smiled and shook his head, "Have you found the person I want?"

"No, don't tell me you don't know I didn't find it."

“You should pay more attention, Johnny.

If you help me find Gaius, you can redeem your soul."

"Stop talking nonsense. What are you doing here?"

“I’ve been keeping an eye on you, Johnny.

Phoenix, Denver, Houston... Johnny, you are the best and I am your biggest fan.

Posters, video games... the audience shouted excitedly. "Mephisto walked up to Johnny and imitated the audience's cheers vividly, "Johnny, Johnny, Johnny...

That makes me so proud, it's like watching an investment continue to soar and increase in value until one day you cash in on that investment.

That day has come, Johnny."

"I'm already looking for Gaius, even though I don't want to do that." Johnny said with a cold and disdainful look, "And my efficiency may be beyond your imagination. You have to be prepared for a protracted war."

"Three days of fishing, two days of drying the nets?" Mephisto laughed dumbly, "It doesn't matter, I have plenty of time, and so do you.

We don't have to worry about our lifespans. As long as Gaius is still on Earth, you will find him one day."

“But I came to you today to give you another choice.

Find my rebellious son Wu Xinmo and destroy him."

"Go find it yourself!"

“You signed a contract, remember!

If you succeed, I will give you your soul back.

As for the task of finding someone, you can change someone else. There are many people in this world who are willing to sell their souls. "

"I don't want to do it!"

"You have no choice." Mephisto said with a sneer, and his figure disappeared from Johnny's sight.

......

Gaius returned to the divination room, but as soon as he opened the door, he was shocked to find a man who looked exactly like him sitting on the divination seat, smiling at him with satisfaction in his eyes.

In addition to this person, there were two very beautiful women, one was as noble as a queen, and the other was as cold as ice, but both exuded an aura that kept strangers away.

The difference was that the eyes of the noble black-haired woman were full of amusement, as if she was looking at some novel toy, while the eyes of the cold and beautiful blonde girl were full of sympathy and pity, as if he would not live long.

Three people, three different attitudes. This weird scene made Gaius's scalp tingle, and he had the urge to turn around and run away.

But he still suppressed his uneasiness and said calmly: "If I remember correctly, this is my home, right!"

"You can say that." Aaron nodded in agreement and said to himself, "I am very satisfied with your performance last night. It temporarily diverted the attention of Hell from me. I deserve a thank you."

Gaius frowned, feeling panic-stricken. "What are you talking about? Who are you?"

Aaron sighed softly, then pointed with one hand, and shot a ray of silver-white light into Gaius' forehead.

The lost memory was instantly restored. Gaius was dazed for a moment, then staggered and collapsed on the sofa and laughed, "Haha! Stand-in, this is really funny."

Aaron was noncommittal, “I might also have to say sorry to you.

I created you, but I must destroy you."

"No need to explain, I would probably do the same if it were me.

After I help you eliminate your flaws, my existence itself is the biggest flaw."

Aaron nodded slightly, “Although you only lived for less than a day, but out of humanitarian considerations...what is your wish?

If I can do it, I won’t refuse.”

"Wish? Last wish might be a more appropriate term!" Gaius said half-jokingly, "But there are still a few things that I am worried about."
