Chapter 284 Mephitus

Mephisto is an evil and powerful monarch who controls a hell-like dimension and possesses great power. He enjoys stealing people's souls, torturing, killing and attacking others. He uses the devil in Christianity as an example, ruling his own hellish dimension and using contracts signed with mortals to steal souls.

The more souls there are in the Hell dimension, the stronger his power will be, and Mephisto likes to plunder the souls he loves the most on the planet Earth. Of course, there are actually various ancient gods hidden on Earth, and the souls of various regions have their own destinations, so Mephisto can only compete with these gods every time.

Those sinful souls are usually Mephisto's favorites, because the "heaven" in certain areas will always refuse to accept sinful souls, and that's when Mephisto comes on the scene. And when the evil monarch takes a fancy to a soul, he will usually show up and use some means to lure the person he likes to do sinful behavior to ensure that they enter his own hell.

Speaking of sin, those areas on Earth with extremely high crime rates are like fertile pastures for Mephisto. These sinful souls are hated by gods and ghosts, but in the eyes of Mephisto, they are like tempting delicacies. Therefore, the souls in these areas have long been secretly reserved by Mephisto, waiting for him to harvest.

However, Mephisto will not wait in these places all the time, because there is Kamar-Taj on Earth, and in Kamar-Taj, there is a guy who even Mephisto finds difficult, that is the Ancient One. Although in terms of strength, Mephisto is not afraid of the Ancient One, but Mephisto's own power is related to his hell dimension. The longer he leaves hell, the weaker his ability will be. Therefore, he will try his best to avoid conflicts with the Ancient One, a local on Earth, and he always uses a clone to come to Earth.

In America, the most attractive place of sin to Mephisto is Hell's Kitchen in Manhattan, New York. He likes this name very much, and he also likes the chaotic evil people here, who can always bring fresh and delicious souls to Mephisto. However, Mephisto found something strange. Usually, every time he came to Hell's Kitchen, there would be some sinful souls floating in those dark alleys. However, recently, Mephisto didn't see any hair here, as if someone was trying to steal his business.

Mephisto naturally took this matter very seriously. Normally, he was the one who robbed others, and no one dared to rob him. However, since Mephisto could not stay on Earth for a long time because it would attract the attention of the Ancient One, he sent many demons from his own dimension to hide on Earth to inquire about the situation for him, trying to find the thief who dared to steal his soul.

Later, after witnessing an invasion of the Earth by an army from another planet, the little ghosts finally brought him good news: they had found it.

Mephisto found the so-called "thief" according to the information given by the little ghosts, and he saw what the other party did in the cemetery, and he was sure that the other party did have this ability. Now, Mephisto wanted to see what level the other party was, and how dare he eat the souls in the same area as me, Mephisto.

On Noah's side, he also discovered that something was wrong with the old man in front of him. He could feel that although the other party looked like a human being, the appearance of an old man in a suit was just a layer of skin.

Noah squinted his eyes, and his pupils radiated the light of his own magic. The magic strengthened his vision, and then he saw the true face of the other party hidden under the human skin, a red-skinned creature that looked like a devil. And with this image and the other party's temperament, Noah also guessed the other party's identity, Mephisto!

"Hmph!" Mephisto seemed to sense Noah's gaze and increased the intensity of his disguise. Then, Noah could no longer see the figure of the red devil, and the only thing left in his sight was the white-haired old human man in a suit.

"Mephisto?" Noah took a step forward, blocking Lissandra and Gwen behind him, and then directly said the other party's name.

"Oh? You know my identity?" Mephisto looked at the other party's step forward and did not react. However, the other party directly called out his identity, which made him somewhat interested.

"Of course, the evil lord of the Hell dimension, Mephisto, is a devil who is said to like to sign agreements with people and then take their souls away." Noah said. The name Mephisto is actually quite famous on Earth. In the work "Faust" by the famous German writer Goethe, Mephisto is an evil devil who signs agreements with mortals and then cheats their souls away. Maybe Goethe in Marvel has indeed seen Mephisto, and then he has this inspiration?

Mephisto naturally knew that the Mephisto the other party was talking about was not himself, but he didn't mind others mistaking him for the Mephisto in the work, because he himself was also a devil who liked to trick others into signing contracts, which made him feel happy.

"So, Mr. Mephisto, what brings you here to see me?" Noah asked with narrowed eyes. He couldn't figure out the other party's purpose in blocking him this time. Was it for the Infinity Stones?

In this crowded place, Noah didn't want to fight with Mephisto at this time. The other party was not a small minion. In terms of strength, he could be regarded as a big boss. If Noah fought with him here, the impact would definitely not be small, and might cause damage many times more serious than the Battle of New York.

Moreover, Noah was not sure whether he could defeat a dimensional demon of this level if he went all out at this moment.

Noah had some ideas about these powerful dimensional lords. Each dimensional lord should be considered an A-level mission with rich rewards. However, no matter how much he thought about it, Noah had no plans to contact these dimensional lords during this period of time. This time, Mephisto suddenly appeared in front of him, which was something Noah had not expected.

"Noah Lee, you were originally an ordinary human being, but you gained powerful strength not long ago. I am curious, where does the power in your body come from?" Mephisto said, and then he saw Noah making a gesture with his hand.
