EP One Thousand Three Hundred and Sixteen. The Arrival of Ancient 1
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, and if you give in a little, you 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 about the news leaking and losing 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 maintenance of face actually has little to do with other demons. The reason why Mephisto did not give in or suspend the battle to negotiate with Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta was entirely due to his own obsession.
To put it bluntly, he just didn’t want to give up his self-esteem and pride as the Demon King, and insisted on giving himself an explanation.
Some people may say that he is trying to save face and suffer the consequences.
Looking at it from the perspective of a bystander, it is inevitable that you will have such feelings. But in fact, Mephisto also had 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 the level of Mephisto, the so-called understanding of thoughts is still very important.
Although it is not like in the system of cultivating immortals, Mephisto's control of power will be affected to some extent as he is the Lord of Hell. In short, if he had the intention to quit at this moment, took the initiative to propose a truce to Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta, and exchanged some price for their departure, then at the moment when the two parties signed the contract, Mephisto would The control of authority will also be shaken a little.
He is a demon after all.
Whether it is a verbal contract or a document written on parchment, signing a contract is extremely important to the devil.
There are many precedents in history for demons who were turned into slaves or familiars because they were betrayed by contracts. There are even some demons that will be wiped out by the backlash and directly lose their lives.
In short, Mephisto had to bite the bullet and continue to fight Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta because he valued power.
From his perspective, there was no room for concession.
On the other side, Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta
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 you continue to endure 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 situation has happened countless times before, but this time, he suddenly stopped halfway back, and did not retreat a hundred meters away like before.
Not only that. Mephisto, who stopped halfway 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 loud, and the emotion mixed in the roar is full.
"Huh?" Upon seeing this scene, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but have a flash of light 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!" With a cheer, Shi Xiaolei moved his mind and fell back to the ground on the Wind and Fire Wheel. He excitedly raised his hand and said hello: "It's been so hard for me to wait. 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'll take my time"
Before I could finish these words, Mephisto was furious and came over to kill him.
Invincibility begins with sacrificing the ancestor
Across the dimensional crystal wall, after Gu Yi transferred the power of the Witch Heart Demon to Bianhuahua, nearly five minutes passed before Mephisto suddenly felt the loss and emptiness.
Of course, from Mephisto's perspective, it was only 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, which caused 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 calls himself a friend, but Gu Yi's hands don'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 ring 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 that with your wisdom, you can see the situation clearly, right?"
The nicer you are, the more irritating 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.
"Gu Yi." He gritted his teeth and stared at Gu Yi, as if he was about to swallow her up in one second. Mephisto's eyes were not only bloodshot, but also lit up with two clusters of crimson magic flames: "It's you again, it's you again!"
"Yes, I did it."
