The giant of light in the marvel world

When Richard caught the Ghost Rider and handed him over to Gabriel, he thought that was the end of the matter. The reason for the war between Heaven and Hell was that there were rumors that Mephisto had found a way to resurrect the elemental demons. And now that the devil has fallen into the hands of Heaven, there should be no reason to continue fighting, right?

Although the devils in hell behave very arrogantly, everyone knows that they do not have the courage to go to heaven to stir up trouble. Not to mention that the devil's dimension is too dependent on hell, and it is difficult to exert some combat power in heaven. Even if their strength is not reduced, and they all go to heaven to run wild with full strength and condition, then they are not God-worthy enough to fill their teeth. of.

The existence of hell helps to check and balance heaven, but in fact, if we really want to fight regardless of the consequences, even if the number of devils is doubled, there is actually no chance of winning.

However, Richard still overestimated the archangel's ability to do things, or from another perspective, he underestimated the devil's cunning.

Not long after taking Johnny away from Richard, Archangel Gabriel quickly set up a complex magic circle, threw Johnny into the center of the magic circle and began to brew a complex large-scale spell.

This is an extremely complex and high-level magic that requires high precision, intended to extract the source of Ghost Rider's power from Johnny's body. Gabriel believes that the spirit of vengeance now merged with the devil has already deviated from the original intention of God's creation. She wants to extract this power and bring it back to heaven to face judgment.

Since the spell is very risky, any interference and resistance may cause failure, so she wakes up Johnny and tricks him into helping her suppress the power of evil spirits during the ritual.

Maybe it’s because the archangel’s radiant and flapping wings are too convincing, or maybe it’s because her appearance adds weight to Johnny’s judgment. After all, it was obvious who was the good guy and who was the bad guy compared to such a good-looking angel girl and a flaming skull. In addition, Johnny had long wanted to get rid of the Ghost Rider's curse, so he agreed without much thought.

Then came the part where Gabriel was tricked.

The plan started out well. The Archangel's magic suppressed the power of the evil spirit, and coupled with the suppression of Johnny's own will, the Ghost Rider was suppressed after several transformations.

At one point, the flesh on Johnny's face was burned away by the flames, exposing his white bones, but in the end he was suppressed without any risk under his roar.

Zathanos roared angrily inside Johnny, yelling in his ears, but was completely powerless. He may have been a strong man at the beginning, but now Zatanos is just a soul fragment, unable to fight back against the quasi-father-level Gabriel. The fragments of the Demon Lord were slowly pulled out of Johnny's body together with the power of the Spirit of Vengeance, and were gradually separated from the depths of his soul...

But what Gabriel didn't expect at all was that there was more than just that, and there was also some more powerful, cold, and murderous energy.

Gabriel was concentrating on casting the spell without any expectation. A dark and slender line of fire shot out from the fragments that were ripped out of Johnny's body. Gabriel was hit from the front without any defense, and was thrown away with his head raised. A large mouthful of blood spat out from his mouth.

The angel's magic power was suddenly weakened a lot, and the barrier built by the entire magic circle was also weakened a lot. At this time, the demon had escaped from Johnny's body and became violent under the weakening of the suppressed magic power. The demon turned into a translucent shadow and circled in the spell barrier, violently impacting the surrounding barrier time and time again. Each impact made the white light dim a bit.

The corner of Gabriel's mouth was covered with blood. He took two deep breaths and stood up, trying his best to suppress the injury and adjust to the best condition.

There was a strong cramp in her chest, and something cold was corroding her body like a sharp knife. It was an energy that was completely repellent to her holy angelic body. The person who laid this trap must have expected that she would choose to extract Zatanos' power, so the trap was set to "activate immediately once separated from the host."

As for the identity of this trickster, she had more or less guessed it.

Some kind of dark substance emerged out of thin air, like a drop of ink dripping on a white tissue, spreading hard and slowly in the space to form a hazy vortex.

It was like a door. The other end of the door was filled with death and despair, leaving no room for the living.

That side is hell.

An old man dressed in black and wearing a top hat slowly walked out from the other side, holding a black wooden cane in his hand. His old face was wrinkled like orange peel, his eyes were cunning, and his expression was triumphant.

"Archangel of the Water Element, nice to meet you." The old man smiled, "It seems that you have received my 'gift'."

Gabriel tried hard to make her injuries look less severe. She gritted her teeth and almost squeezed out the devil's frightening name from between her teeth: "Mephisto."

Lao Mo smiled lightly, which was regarded as an agreement.

"So this is all your plan? Have you laid this trap on him a long time ago?" Gabriel asked with a frown, "Let me catch the Ghost Rider, let me get Zatanos out of this mortal body." Are you separated just to seriously hurt me?"

"And to ask you to help me separate this demon's soul...well...other than that, yes, that's about it." Mephisto nodded slowly.

The phantom of Zatanos was still roaring in annoyance, and was still shaking his fist at the location of Mephisto. Every punch shook the white light barrier to the point of collapse.

Gabriel glanced at it and couldn't help frowning: "They said you wanted to resurrect the elemental demon and make it your ally... But now it seems that your relationship is not very good. It seems that if Zatanos is resurrected , maybe his first thing is to devour you."

The old man smiled lightly.

"Of course. He and I have the same essence. We both like mortal souls. But as we all know, there are only so many mortal souls in total, so conflicts are inevitable." He said, "So it was impossible for him and me to coexist from the beginning. , only one of us can exist in the world.”

"Then why...?"

"Because, Dear Archangel, you have obviously been misled by the rumors - of course, I intentionally guided you." Mephisto's wooden staff turned twice in his hand and said, "Because from I never thought about resurrecting this demon from the beginning, not at all. From the beginning to the end, all I wanted was to devour him and gain unprecedented power, powerful enough to even challenge the authority of your supreme existence."

Gabriel narrowed his eyes, spread his wings, and faced him despite his injuries.

"That won't happen." She said solemnly, "It won't happen as long as I'm watching."

Mephisto laughed out loud.

"I'm sorry, but you seem to have misunderstood something, Your Excellency the Archangel."

Mephisto said as he slowly walked forward and pointed at Gabriel with his black cane.

"In fact, I'm going to invite you to come and see it for yourself."
