Chapter 1022: The prophecy that never went wrong, the lower limit of the witch's heart demon

God of the Contract;

The ancient and noble inheritor;

Creator of the mind, master of shadows...

Banner's voice suddenly rang in Aaron's ears, and he paused as he was about to bottle the holy water.

"what happened?"

"Boss, Fury is here."

"Avengers Base?" Aaron raised his eyebrows, "He really knows how to choose a place!

But it is true that the entire Earth is relatively safe except for Kamar-Taj, which is full of wizards, and the Avengers Base."

"How did he arrange it?" Aaron asked directly, but then he suddenly thought of something, "Wanda is also at the Avengers base, she didn't get involved, right?"

"He was going to get involved, but I stopped him in time." Banner said as if to take credit, "The other Avengers have been sent out, and Wanda and I will stay at the base."

"It's not just you, right?"

"And Nick Fury."

Aaron raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said meaningfully: "Dr. Banner, I have a question for you.

If the Witch Inner Demon invades the base and his target is Nick Fury, and you, Nick Fury, and Wanda are in the conference room at this moment, what will you do?

I would also like to add that the Inner Demon will not harm Nick Fury, but will only hold him hostage."

"Uh..." Banner thought for a while, then said in confusion, "It's not what I would do, but what would Hulk do?

Hulk won't care too much when fighting, but he will put Wanda's safety first. As for Fury's safety... do your best! "

"Yes, I am satisfied with this answer." Aaron nodded with satisfaction, "Don't worry about that bastard Nick Fury. Even if he is really caught, I can find a way to save his life.

But Wanda can't be in any danger, her power is very special, if anything happens to her I may not be able to handle it."

"Understood." Banner nodded seriously, but only he knew what he was thinking.

"By the way, Boss, what about the Seed of Regeneration?"

"Before you deal with the Son of Hell, protect her well. The Seed of Regeneration will be your reward."

......

As night fell, Johnny lay on the ground uncontrollably, wailing in pain.

A lot of burnt smoke came out of his body, and his skin began to turn into ash and fall off at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The spirit of vengeance gradually awakens in him and forces him to hunt down the Witch Heart Demon and complete Mephisto's mission.

"Focus." Carter Slay came up to Johnny and shouted, "Control him, and channel the hellfire in your body to control this desire."

"what!!!"

Johnny clenched his teeth, closed his eyes with a ferocious expression, and let out a low roar.

boom!

The fire of hell suddenly emerged from his eyes and covered his entire body little by little.

Johnny struggled even harder, crawling forward with difficulty, leaving a scorched trail on the grass.

"If you don't want anything to happen to Roxanne, just control this energy," Aaron said meaningfully.

"Roxanne!" Johnny murmured the name, his eyes instantly became extremely clear, and the hellfire on his body was miraculously suppressed.

"True love." Carter Slay shook his head in astonishment. "Now I believe it. This is definitely the power of true love."

Johnny struggled to get up, breathing heavily, "It worked, right?"

"In fact, it's not a success." Carter Slay poured cold water on Johnny's heart, "You only took control of your body at night, but if Mephisto personally urged you, you still couldn't help yourself."

"It's much better."

"But you still can't transform during the day."

"I was very worried, but..." Johnny turned his head to look at the serious Vision and Tony Stark who was eating donuts, "Two Avengers! Nothing can be more reassuring than this."

"You guys came at the wrong time." Carter Slay's tone was a little more helpless. "He could have tried to break through his limits, but as soon as you guys arrived, he immediately thought of winning without doing anything."

"That's a dangerous idea. We're not good at dealing with demons." Tony shrugged.

"The armor's weapon system has been enhanced with Mr. Gaius' holy water." Vision murmured, "Mr. Stark, you seem to be ready for a tough battle."

"I have no objection to Fury's arrangement, but... I trust his predictions more." Tony pointed at Aaron and said noncommittally, "His predictions have almost never been wrong."

"Thank you for the compliment." Aaron smiled a little embarrassedly, "That's the prophecy in the prophecy book, not mine."

“It’s all the same, so I’m prepared for the worst.

But I am more worried about the military, most of them believe in the power of nuclear war." Tony sighed.

Based on his understanding of those generals, once the gates of hell were opened, the probability of a nuclear bomb being launched would be as high as 100%.

"Mr. Rogers will put a stop to them."

"Steve? The military may not give him face.

At most it can buy us some time."

"Well...I must emphasize that I am not included in our group.

My small body cannot withstand the demon army."

"And me." Carter Slay smiled bitterly, "I will try my best to help, but my energy has run out. Don't hold too much hope in me."

"I won't say anything about the old man wanting to retire, but you..." Tony looked at Aaron angrily, "Doing nothing, doesn't your conscience hurt?"

"I provided the prophecy, giving the superheroes the opportunity to prepare in advance. I also sold you a batch of freshly made holy water. Isn't that enough?"

"At least take Abe..."

Roar!

Abe immediately jumped in front of Tony and bared his teeth at him fiercely.

Gulu!

Tony swallowed his saliva and said reluctantly: "A dragon is definitely a high-powered fighter. It might be able to influence the balance of victory."

"Yes, that's right.

But then countless people will come to trouble me, and countless people will want to send it to the laboratory." Aaron said meaningfully, "Now there are only a few people who know that Abei is a dragon, and I also believe that those who know will keep it a secret.

But what will happen when others know it is a dragon? I don't need to remind you of the bad nature of human beings!

By the way, let me add one more thing. If anyone has bad intentions towards it, it will never surrender, and I will never let it suffer any injustice. "

Tony and Vision looked at each other and simultaneously thought of the destructive power of a giant dragon and shuddered.

They appeared here to prevent the worst outcome and reduce the damage and impact of the demons on the earth before heaven appeared. They could not afford to offend a dragon and its master in order to deal with the demons.

"Okay! Just forget I didn't say anything."

Abe turned his head proudly, ran to Aaron with his short legs, rubbed his head against his arm, and behaved very well and cutely.

"Who would have thought it was a dragon!" Vision sneered.

"Let's get back to the point!" Tony looked at Carter Slay solemnly, "The Saint Vanganza Contract is in your hands, so have you never thought of destroying it in the past hundred years?"

"I want to, but I can't do it." Carter Slay said bluntly, "I've tried all the conventional methods, including fire, flooding, knife hacking, axe chopping, and even lightning strikes. None of them worked."

"What about the unconventional ones?"

“I’ve also tried Hellfire and Holy Water, but the result is that the screams and curses of fallen saints can be heard in the Saint Vanganza Contract.

And I can feel that these targeted destructions will make the evil spirits more resentful, and the demons that get it will become even more powerful and more tyrannical. "

"Okay! Then have you ever thought of hiding the contract in a safer place?"

"This is the safest place I can think of." Carter Slay looked at the circle of tombstones around him and said with emotion, "Ordinary demons can't enter here, but the son of hell...Alas!"

"What about the Vatican? Isn't that a demon-free area?"

"Do you think I haven't thought about it?

But the St. Van Gogh Contract was too special and too evil, and one could not even enter the Vatican with the contract.

After trying various things, I realized my mission, which is to protect the Saint Vanganza Contract and prevent it from falling into the hands of the devil. "

"And you persisted for more than a hundred years?" Tony was in awe, "as a gravekeeper in this cemetery?"

“I can’t say I’ve persisted, but living an extra hundred years is already a blessing.

I could vaguely sense the time of my death, so I prepared a grave for myself in advance, but unfortunately it was destroyed by the witch demon. "

Buzz buzz...

Tony was about to say something when his cell phone rang.

"Bruce?"

"Two pieces of bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

"Is there any difference? They are all bad news." Tony said unhappily, "Dr. Banner, you have really changed. You wouldn't have made such a joke before."

"Okay, okay, I won't keep you in suspense.

The Witch Heart Demon invaded S.H.I.E.L.D., but Fury was really a ruthless person. He arranged more than 20 professional exorcists, plus various professional equipment, and almost pushed the Witch Heart Demon into the holy water pool to take a bath. Although he didn't die, he was still skinned."

"Is this bad news?" Johnny asked doubtfully, "Will the second bad news be the same?"

"The bad news is that even though we were well prepared, the Witch Heart Demon still escaped, and he seriously injured two exorcists."

"I think too much."

"Another bad news is...Witch Heart Demon has captured Luo Shan."

"What?" Johnny was shocked. "Didn't I let her go to the Vatican? And you also sent the Black Widow to escort her. How could the Witch Heart Demon still capture her?"

Banner was silent for a moment, "Actually, this has nothing to do with Natasha."

"That is how the matter?"

“Wu Xinmo didn’t go looking for her at all, but instead captured her parents and a little nephew.

After a phone call, Luo Shan rushed back home from the airport, and Natasha didn't even see her. "

"This is the devil." Carter Slay said with emotion, "As long as your identity is exposed, the devil will try every means to force you to submit."

Johnny was upset and at a loss. "So I can only do what he says, right?"

"If you want to save her life, you have to give him the Saint Vanganza Contract." Carter Slay chuckled and said, "But the devil may not keep his promise.

If you don't hand it over, she will surely die, but the Ghost Rider will have no worries and will have plenty of time to seek revenge and redeem your soul from Mephisto.

How do you choose? "

"Huh!" Johnny took a deep breath and looked at Carter Slay seriously, "Where is the contract?"

"Sure enough, I knew you would choose this." Carter Slay chuckled, with a hint of relief in his eyes.

"Give it to me and let me be done with it."

Carter Slay looked at him quietly without saying anything.

Johnny pursed his lips and snatched the shovel from Carter Slay's hand. "I'll find it even if I have to dig through the entire cemetery."

"Not in the grave." Carter Slay said helplessly.

"But it must be in this cemetery, otherwise you wouldn't have been guarding here for more than a hundred years."

"Well, you're not as stupid as I thought.

But time is running out. Wu Xinmo only gave you two days, and the first day has already passed.

You'd better find the Saint Vanganza Contract before tomorrow night, otherwise even if you want to trade, you can only get a corpse. "Carter Slay said with a meaningful smile, "Witch Heart Demon is not as good as his father Mephisto. It's okay that he has a bad temper, but he also has no patience."

Hearing this, Johnny became even more anxious, and the hellfire in his body began to stir.

"Calm down, calm down!" Tony hastily tried to smooth things over. "There's still one day left. Don't be so impatient."

"It's not your girlfriend who was taken away, so of course you are not in a hurry."

"I'm not stopping you." Tony said, but looking at Johnny's obvious distrust, "Okay! I'm stopping you. Stop you from being stupid."

"Protecting the Saint Vanganza Contract is our top priority. If the contract is not protected well, we must stop the Witch Heart Demon from opening the gate to Hell. If the gate to Hell is still opened, we must prevent the disaster from spreading and reduce the losses." Vision said calmly, then looked at Tony, "I think we can skip the first stage. From the moment we know where the contract is, it is no longer safe."

"But it requires a plan." Tony gave Johnny a disdainful look and said seriously, "It would be absolutely the most stupid thing to just take the contract with you without thinking."

Click! Click!

Johnny blinked, then nodded awkwardly after realizing what was happening. "The plan requires a prerequisite, the Saint Vanganza Contract."

As soon as the words fell, Johnny, Tony, and Vision all looked at Carter Slay.

"Uh-huh! Why should I give him the contract?"

"You have to trust me."

"why?"

"He may have my soul, but he doesn't have my heart."

"Haha!" Carter Slay laughed and shook his head, "Anyone who dares to sell his soul for love has the power to change the world.

You are not driven by greed, but by the right reasons, and maybe that will get God on your side.”
