"She fell asleep." Charles came out of Leona's room tiredly.

It’s not that I’m physically tired, it’s that I’m mentally tired.

Teaching a child is undoubtedly a time-consuming and energy-consuming job, and you also need to be patient with her. What is even more frustrating is that you find that after you have put in a lot of effort, the child still does not listen to your instructions.

Leona is such a frustrating child, but Charles has always been a very patient person.

However, even though Charles was patient, Leona's life continued to decline.

"We have tried our best to research the self-healing factor." Hank was crestfallen. "It took Magneto and his side more than ten years to develop the medicine. I am not sure that we can use it in just a few days."

Copy it...and what I never expected was that Leona would become resistant to the self-healing potion."

"We all know you have tried your best." Natasha comforted him.

Charles rubbed his temples and said, "There are still many things that have not been dealt with. Let's go to a meeting."

Everyone nodded silently.

"We need to talk." Captain America looked at Strange, "About the threats the Earth is suffering."

"That's what I came for," said Strange.

They indeed have too many things to be busy with. Leona's physical condition is very critical, but the war in other areas is urgent.

It's always like this. There is a clear boundary between public and private. If you want to accomplish one thing, you often have to give up another.

In most cases, the Avengers will find ways to solve the crisis they are facing, but not everything has a solution.

Leona's body continues to decline because she has used her space transfer ability many times in a short period of time. This ultra-long distance space transfer is too costly for her at present. And the reason why she does this is, after all,

The reason is to help the Avengers leave safely.

Biological death does not mean the complete end. Leona is a very special individual. She does not care whether she dies or not. Perhaps the Avengers should not be so persistent on this matter.

However, what ordinary people consider death is death in the biological sense, and they cannot afford to just watch Leona "die" like this.

Leona lay quietly on the bed, a little hesitant whether to play out of body again or just lie down and sleep.

As a result, she actually felt a little sleepy after thinking about it.

The soul state cannot sleep. The soul will not feel tired and does not need to rest. This makes Leona very unhappy, because sleeping can make people feel happy and relaxed. If the soul leaves the body, she will lose this relaxation.

way.

"Do you want to live?" A greasy voice sounded in Leona's mind.

"Oh, shut up." Leona instantly captured the power that invaded her mind, "Playing mind invasion in front of me? You chose the wrong person."

"Okay." The voice muttered, "I admit that I underestimated you...but this also proves how good my vision is."

"I think we should go to a private place to talk because I don't want others to overhear."

Leona's eyes swayed, and then she found herself entering a consciousness space built by the power of the soul.

A mass of red material expanded in front of Leona's eyes, and the man in a red suit touched his chin and looked at her.

The man's hair was neatly combed and his tie was meticulous. He had a pointed chin, nose, and ears, and a cunning glint in his eyes.

"Nice to meet you." The man said with an exaggerated smile, "Leona."

Leona's expression turned gloomy. She hated being coerced by others. The man in front of him gave him a strange sense of familiarity. His behavior was very similar to Leona's enemy in the last game field - the clown.

"Who are you?" she asked.

"I am Mephisto, the Lord of Hell." The man adjusted his accent and let out a weird high-pitched laugh, "Strange is my old friend."

"Lord of Hell? Does that mean you are a demon?" Leona looked at him carefully, "Strange must hate you."

"I don't deny it." Mephisto leaned forward and said in a seductive tone, "Do you want to make a deal with me, girl? I promise, this is a deal that you will definitely make money without losing anything."

"...Tell me about it." Leona said calmly.

Mephisto is the lord of hell, in charge of a dimension. Leona is really hard to judge how strong he is. After all, she has never fought against similar people. Leona is confident that she can hardly do anything on earth.

She meets an opponent, but facing a strange and unknown enemy like Mephisto, it is difficult for her to be sure of victory.

Strange is still in the Avengers base, and Mephisto is bold enough to use his power to infiltrate here. What is his purpose?

"A very fair deal." Mephisto said, "I can cure your disease and let you continue to live. At the same time, you must become my servant for 100 years."

"Dream on you." Leona refused expressionlessly, "As your servant for 100 years, wouldn't I have to work until I die?"

"In a transaction, you can't just let one party pay, you also have to pay something corresponding." Mephisto touched his chin with his slender fingers and said, "But who makes me like you so much? I can give you some preferential treatment."

There is no such thing as a free lunch, and Leona knows that Mephisto has no good intentions.

"Is there anything you are good at?" Mephisto smiled kindly.

"I'm good at playing games," Leona said.

"What a coincidence," Mephisto said happily, "I am also very good at games."

Leona looked at his fake performance there with boredom.

"How about this, let's play a game. If you win, I can heal your body. If I win, you have to serve me." Mephisto rubbed his hands, "What do you think?

?”

"No." Leona said, "Why do I have to ask you to heal my body? Find a demon to heal? There are many ways in front of me, there is no need to choose your one. My companions are working hard to find a cure for me.

Maybe they can find a way

Well. As long as you win, I will become your servant. This deal is simply not worth it. Can’t you see the potential in me clearly? Isn’t my ability powerful? The chips you gave are too few.

No, there is no need for me to agree to such a deal."

Mephisto let out a muffled laugh, "Greedy girl! I really like you!"

"Your old enemy Strange is nearby me, and you actually dare to invade my brain." Leona said, "You must be confident, right? Are you stronger than Strange?"

"Of course. The title Lord of Hell is not just nice to hear." Mephisto rolled his eyes, "Do you have any wishes? Have you lost anyone? If you ask me, I might be merciful and let you

Meet them."

"Do all people who die go to hell?" Leona asked casually, "Hell should be a place where demons live."

"Are you curious about hell?" Mephisto said, "I can invite you to be my guest."

Leona simply refused, "No."

"Don't you have anything you want?" Mephisto asked relentlessly, "I can fulfill any wish you have."

"Not yet." Leona looked like she was thinking hard, "If you can help me kill Magneto, I will be very happy, but I have agreed in advance that I will not pay you."

"Greedy girl." Mephisto tutted and shook his head.

He clapped his hands and suddenly showed a surprised expression, "Oh, I know there is something you will definitely want."

Leona blinked and stared at him strangely.

Mephisto took out a transparent blue bead from his pocket like a treasure.

"Let's take a look at this thing. Is it what you want?" He proudly raised the beads to Leona's eyes.

Leona took a closer look at the bead and found that there seemed to be a vague figure in the bead.

"...Tony!" She was really surprised.

"It contains the soul of Tony Stark." Mephisto winked at her, "Do you want him?"

The Tony inside the bead is the real Tony, not artificial intelligence Tony. The soul of the dead Tony is placed in the blue bead, seemingly sleeping.

Leona frowned tightly, feeling that Mephisto's appearance was really ugly and annoying. His chin, nose and ears were so sharp that they could poke someone to death. If he fell into Leona's hands, she would definitely kill him.

Cut off his sharp chin, nose, and ears.

"You are really the ugliest person I have ever seen." She said with twisted malice and irritable emotions, "Even the clown is prettier than you."

Mephisto took the blue bead back deliberately slowly.

"Since you think my chips are too low, I will add more chips. Are you interested in playing a game?" He said happily, "If you win, I will cure your body and give you the bead containing the soul."

Here it is. If I win, your soul will be mine."

"What a bargain! You still made a profit." Mephisto grinned almost to his ears, "Let's play a game, Leona!"

"Why did you choose me?" Leona said, "Wouldn't it be better to continue torturing your old enemy Strange?"

"I have known Strange for a long time and have played many games with him. I have to say that Strange is a good toy most of the time, but no matter how fun the toy is, there will be a day when you get tired of it.

Not long ago I decided to change my taste and find myself a

A new toy." Mephisto said happily, "And guess what? I saw you! I rarely see anyone as interesting as you," he said with a strange laugh in his throat, "

I have a feeling you will bring me a lot of fun, Leona!"
