EP1316. The Arrival of the Ancient One
The indeterminate battle not only made Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta feel upset.
To be honest, from Mephisto's point of view, I actually feel a little tired of this battle.
Helplessly, as the Lord of Hell, Mephisto must maintain his face.
It's not that there are other bystanders around. If he gives in a little, he will be despised by others. Or if the news spreads, it will affect his rule of the hell dimension.
At his level, he has long been freed from the constraints of secular principles.
In other words, if it was just because he was worried that the news would be leaked and thus lose face to other demons, Mephisto could kill all the demons who knew the news and eradicate this hidden danger from the physical level.
so……
The so-called 'maintaining face' actually has little to do with other demons. The reason why Mephisto did not give in, or suspended the battle to negotiate with Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta, was entirely due to his own obsession.
To put it bluntly, I just don’t want to give up my self-esteem and pride as the devil, and insist on giving myself an explanation.
Some people may say that he is trying to save face and suffer the consequences.
From the perspective of a bystander, it is inevitable that you will have such feelings. But in fact, Mephisto also has his reasons for his choice.
On the surface, it seems that he just wants to save face.
But upon deeper analysis, things are actually not that simple.
You know, at Mephisto's level, the so-called 'thought access' is still very important.
Although it is not like in the system of cultivating immortals, Mephisto will be obsessed due to poor thoughts, but as the lord of hell, Mephisto's control of power will be affected to some extent. In short, if he gives birth to
With the intention of quitting, he took the initiative to propose a truce to Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta, and exchanged a certain price for the two of them to leave... Then, at the moment when the two parties signed the contract, Mephisto's control of power would also be slightly shaken.
.
He is a devil after all.
Whether it is a verbal contract or a document written on parchment, signing a contract is of extremely important significance to the devil.
There are many precedents in history for demons who were turned into slaves or familiars because of the backlash from contracts. Some demons were even wiped out by the backlash and lost their lives.
In short, Mephisto had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue fighting Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta out of his emphasis on authority.
From his perspective, there was no room for concession.
As for Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta on the other side...
'I don't know what's going on with Master Gu Yi. Alas, I really hope she can get it done quickly.'
'Although there is no threat, if I continue like this, mentally...'
At the moment when Shi Xiaolei was slightly distracted, the situation suddenly changed - taking advantage of being repelled by the huge fist summoned by Bayonetta, Mephisto distanced himself and tried to regain his health. This had happened countless times before.
This situation happened, but this time, he suddenly stopped halfway back, and did not retreat a hundred meters away like before.
Not only that. Mephisto, who stopped midway and was suspended in the air, suddenly raised his head and looked towards the sky.
…
Immediately afterwards.
As if being stimulated by something, Mephisto let out an extremely angry roar.
The movement is called loud, and the emotion mixed with the roar is called full.
"Huh?" Upon seeing this scene, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration in his heart, and the corners of his mouth could not help but turn up high.
'Could it be...'
Before Shi Xiaolei could think about it carefully, a portal appeared on the dilapidated ruins on the ground.
A figure stepped through the portal and came to the battlefield where hellfire was burning everywhere.
"Aha~!" He cheered, and with a thought, Shi Xiaolei fell back to the ground on the Wind and Fire Wheel. He excitedly raised his hand and said hello: "I've been waiting so hard. Master Gu Yi, are you done?"
Being closer than Shi Xiaolei, Bayonetta jumped a few times and came to Gu Yi's side.
"We just finished." Looking at Shi Xiaolei and then at Bayonetta, Ancient One gave an answer that made both of them extremely happy.
"Where's Sister Hua? Is she okay? Has she taken over the power of the Witch Heart Demon?" Shi Xiaolei excitedly asked a few more questions: "Is the process going well? Is there anything you don't feel comfortable with?"
"She's fine." Gu Yi smiled and nodded, using his eyes to indicate to Shi Xiaolei not to worry: "Everything is going well. However, she still needs some time to digest. After a while, when things here are over, let's go back to Earth.
I will take my time..."
Before I could finish the words "I'll tell you in detail", Mephisto was furious and came over to kill him.
"Invincibility starts with sacrificing the ancestor"
Across the dimensional crystal wall, after Gu Yi transferred the power of the Heart Witch to Bianhua Hua, nearly five minutes passed before Mephisto suddenly felt the loss and emptiness.
Of course, from Mephisto's perspective, it only took a few seconds from feeling the loss to noticing the arrival of the Ancient One.
Precisely because these two things were connected together, Mephisto immediately judged the connection between them and guessed that Ancient One was behind the scenes, causing him to lose his authority.
"Ancient One~~!" once again burst out with overwhelming power, and as Mephisto approached, the surrounding air became hotter, as if it would be ignited in the next second.
"Long time no see, old friend."
He said he was a friend, but Gu Yi's hands didn't contain any hint of lake at all.
Raising his hand, there were several orange rings of fire, blocking Mephisto's way. Following Ancient One's gesture, the rings of fire closed instantly, and three of the bat wings behind Mephisto were instantly cut off.
Losing his balance, Mephisto fell from mid-air and fell heavily on the ruins.
"If you have something to say, why are you so excited?" He stepped forward and walked towards Mephisto, whose bat wings were rapidly regenerating. Gu Yi said with a smile: "It's three against one now. I believe,
With your wisdom, you can definitely see the situation clearly, right?"
The more kind you are, the more annoying you are.
Looking at Ancient One with a smile on his face, Mephisto felt extremely hateful.
But the tingling sensation coming from his back, especially the slowdown in bat wing regeneration, made him afraid to stab him easily.
"Ancient One~." He gritted his teeth and stared at Ancient One, as if he was about to swallow her up in one second. Mephisto's eyes were not only bloodshot, but even two clusters of crimson red eyes lit up.
Mo Yan: "It's you again, it's you again~!"
"Yes, I did it."
