73. Good Luck of the Old Devil

"I want to ask you for a favor."

While the family was sharing the magic cake, Barry, who was holding the cake, looked around in the happy birthday slogan composed of the squirting rainbow lights.

Then he sneakily pulled Peter to the corner.

The Flash looked back at the crowd behind him and said softly to the Spider:

"You know, I've been looking for the murderer who killed my mother. I've discovered it a little lately, but I'm not his opponent."

"Then it's useless for you to find me."

Peter grabbed his hair, and he grabbed the fork and put a large piece of cake into his mouth, saying helplessly in a vague tone:

"I can't keep up with you guys who run fast. I can't react when you punch me. Maybe it's more appropriate for you to go to Uncle Merlin."

"No, you can help, and Uncle Merlin is already busy enough, don't cause trouble for him."

Barry blinked and he whispered:

"Remember the fold of the Phoenix Fragments?"

"You and I, folded together, I have your ability, the speed force and spider sensing can produce interesting reactions, and the combination of the two can enter a state similar to the 'prediction'."

"I've been recalling that feeling these days."

Barry pursed his lips and said:

"I have done several data models to calculate and got good feedback conclusions. So, as long as you help me, theoretically, I will be sure to easily catch that guy without being hit by him."

"But it's dangerous, so I don't force it"

"Stop talking!"

The little spider patted his chest and said to Barry with a loyal look:

"Are we friends or relatives? I've helped you with this!"

He sipped the perfect cake, then wiped the cream from the corner of his mouth, and said to Barry excitedly:

"Let's go now?"

Barry waved his hand and said:

"Uh, don't worry, I have to make some preparations first. The Phoenix Fragments were received to Dum. He is a difficult person to talk to, and I have to find a way to borrow a piece of it."

“This is simple!”

The little spider raised his two fingers with a frown, and said to Barry:

"You go and find Miss Wanda. When I heard my sisters gossip, I said that Miss Wanda has been very close to Doum recently. You can ask her for help, maybe it will be much easier."

"What are you two doing here?"

Ava, who was like a ghost, suddenly appeared between Peter and Barry, holding the sleepy orange cat Gugu in her hand, and looked suspiciously at the two guys plotting strange things, she said:

"What are you doing with fragments or something?"

"Shh!"

The Flash raised his finger and placed it beside his mouth, making a sound ban.

Peter even stretched out his hand and tried to cover Ava's mouth, but the latter easily flashed by. She avoided the little spider's waved hand with quantum movements. She said very dissatisfiedly:

"I warn you not to do anything dangerous! I'll stare at you two, especially you, Peter, who just got taught a lesson and then your skin itched again, right?"

"This time it's serious!"

The little spider said with dissatisfaction:

"What heroes should do, anyway, just don't tell others."

Merlin held a birthday party, and in another relatively distant place, another happy banquet was also underway.

Las Vegas, the famous casino.

This city was used by the Apocalypse game Knights as a battlefield a few days ago, and as a result, most of the cities were destroyed.

However, with the efficient and strong intervention of the disaster management department under m.i.b, the city was almost restored in less than a week.

The engineering and intelligence machinery of the Mechanical God Cult take care of the construction work, and those intelligence machinery work day and night are incredibly efficient.

The closed businesses have opened one after another, and some new businesses have seized the opportunity and have taken advantage of this time to start their own businesses in the casino.

A gorgeous 33-storey hotel opened today. Its exterior decoration is extremely luxurious. Large pieces of transparent glass create a nearly transparent internal structure for the hotel, and neon tubes twisted into artistic texture.

There is a tarmac on the roof, a high-altitude tennis court, a swimming pool for sunlight, various quirky and gorgeous fountains, and quaint and textured decorations.

The interior is covered with expensive carpets, shiny marble, and gurgling water leaves from high places, like a built-in fountain.

Even the sculptures of the three-headed hellhound placed at the door are gilded.

The opening ceremony of this hotel made a huge show, and famous media from all over the country were invited to come over, which was quite noisy and pompous. Moreover, this luxurious hotel also has a very non-mainstream name.

It is called "Hell Hotel".

From this name, we can see that the investors behind this hotel are not good at it.

The old devil Mephist is sitting in the office on the highest point of the 33-story building.

It sat in a comfortable boss chair, holding a lit cigar in his hand, wearing a black and exquisite suit, and even a crimson-red tie.

Like a successful business person.

But its fiery red skin, the scent of sulfur emitted on its body, the burning eyes, the black corners above its head, and the triangular tail behind it, indicate its identity.

The old devil has been planning and building his own hotel on earth since a long time ago, not just for fun. It also has its own plan for the battle against the king of hell, and this hotel is the most important part.

Everything is moving forward smoothly now. Through a series of operations, it has successfully extended its hell to the earth. This luxurious hotel is the stronghold of Mephist Hell in the earth.

However, although this happened smoothly, there was no joy on the old devil's face, which could be seen from its constantly shaking legs.

It's been quite annoying during this period.

After Merlin made a big fuss at the dusk council with the son of Hell last time, the old devil took the initiative to take on the life of contact with the Snake of Fear and Nightmare.

The Lords of Hell do not want these two guys who manipulate fear to interfere with the battle against Hell Kings, but the old devil sees it even deeper.

It can be concluded that whether it is a big snake or a nightmare, Merlin deliberately put it into the world, with the purpose of attracting the attention of the lords so that the ravens can carry out their own career leisurely.

Mephister has been thinking about how to transform Merlin's advantages into his own.

It hopes to pull two fear manipulators into its own camp and deal with the increasingly powerful Merlin together. Unlike other Hell Lords, there is an irreconcilable grudge between Mephist and Merlin.

The raven hasn't taken action yet, but the old devil can already think that once the raven takes action, it will definitely be the first victim.

Merlin won't let it go.

This is no longer just a battle for the king of hell, it is a fatal matter!

Not long ago, the old devil witnessed Merlin's action of expelling the giant beasts with his own eyes. The strength of the raven has become a mystery. People always feel fear of things that they cannot predict.

The same goes for the old devil.

Every time I think of Merlin, Mephist feels uncontrollable fear in his heart, as if the cold shadow of the raven has been covering it, like a poisonous snake spitting a letter in the dark

The old devil's neck became tighter and tighter, even making it feel like it was not breathing smoothly.

The old devil's heart was in a mess. Its mind full of dark wisdom was running rapidly, trying to find a complete solution to break the deadlock, but it could not imagine.

"Yeah, this place is pretty good."

The sudden sound interrupted Mephist's thoughts.

The old devil turned around in surprise and looked at the two uninvited guests behind him.

This hotel is an extension of the hell it controls. As the hell master, it can sense everything that is happening in the hotel.

But it did not sense the appearance of the person behind it, which shows that the strength of the visitor is far beyond its level.

Tanlia Tiwan, a collector with a cane, looked at the collection in the old devil's office with a disgusting look.

As the red halo of sunset was found along the window to find the light and shadow on the ground, the collector reached out to touch the vase at hand, he curled his lips and said:

"There are fakes here. Tsk, your taste is really not very good."

"Bang"

The collector tweaked his fingers and the fake vase fell to the ground and smashed to pieces.

In a very relaxed posture, Gao Tianzun, who was sitting on the sofa, was not as rude as his picky brother. He raised his legs, spread his hands, and placed them on the backrest of the sofa. He said to the old devil:

"We want to borrow your hotel to bet with Merlin Riley, but I have to ask in advance, are the procedures in your place legal? I don't want to get a good time when I get a f.b.i or the tax bureau breaks in."

“Of course, it’s very legal.”

Mephist couldn't see through the details of these two guests.

But when he heard Gao Tianzun talk about Meilin, his eyes narrowed. The old devil felt the disgust in Gao Tianzun's tone.

It stood up, tidied up its collar, touched its most gorgeous beard in the nine realms, and said to Gao Tianzun:

"Tax certificates, real estate contracts, and business licenses are all available. Everyone knows that Mephist is a good devil who abides by the rules. I never do those things that violate the law."

"I'm also happy to see the two of you who have taken a fancy to me. It's an honor, but I'm still a little curious about your bet with Merlin."

The old devil blinked his burning eyes, and it said:

"What kind of bet is it? Is it the kind of kids playing house? Or the kind of people who die?"

"Of course, it's the kind that will die."

The collector yawned and sat unceremoniously on Mephist's boss' chair. He put his cane aside and looked at the casino in the sunset. He said in a cold tone:

"Merlin Riley is going to die, right here, right in this hotel, that arrogant guy will suffocate in his own blood."

"Don't be so confident, brother."

Gao Tianzun closed his eyes slightly and completely ignored Mephist. He said to the hated collector:

"Give Merlin some confidence, after all, he has done so many miracles, maybe he can win."

After saying that, the Elder of the Universe set his sight on Mephist.

That kind of gaze surprised Mephist as if he felt the gaze of a giant beast that day.

It was as if the flesh and blood and the soul were completely seen through the dark secrets.

After a few seconds of silence, Gao Tianzun suddenly chuckled and said to the old devil:

"You are a very smart and cunning life. In our world, there is still some friendship between you and me. But as a phantom, you are quite unqualified and have no real style you deserve."

"But it's not your fault. After all, you are just a poor imitation based on reality, just like this world."

"You must be wondering who we are, and what kind of grudges are there between us and Merlin, okay, as a reward for borrowing your beautiful building to start a bet, I will tell you all the truth you are expecting."

The Elder of the Universe bends down his body, and supports his arms on the edge of the sofa, supporting his head and cheeks, he said:

"Merlin did not deceive you. This world was born because of him. All this is false. It is between existence and non-existence, and it is a dream of all beings."

"You, and the city behind you, the earth that embraces the city, the stars that envelop the earth, and all things that evolve from the stars."

“It’s all fake!”

Gao Tianzun saw the ferocity flashing on Mephist's face, and this expression made him feel very interesting.

He whispered to the old devil in a lofty manner:

"We, and Merlin, we are different from you. We are probably the only three real lives in this group of stars."

"Merlin wants to turn all the illusion into reality, and our plans are more open-minded. What we want is to win. The survival of this world has nothing to do with us."

"But just as we promised to the giant beast, Mephist, I will also make a promise to you!"

"Join our bet game with Merlin and fight for us to win. If Merlin loses, we will give you a chance to escape the end of the world, and in the flames ignited by us, you will survive to the next era."

The Elder of the Universe blinked his fingers and shot a spiraling star, he said:

"You will not only become true, but also gain the power of truth in the epoch-changing periods, become a powerful entity that you cannot imagine, and rule the next epoch."

Mephist blinked, and it rubbed its chin and said:

"I can't imagine what you said, and I don't believe it very much. Because I often use such emotional language to deceive those ignorant people. I am very familiar with this."

"Look, this strange adult, after I suffered repeated blows, it is already very realistic. Compared to future promises, I am more concerned about the immediate interests."

It looked at Gao Tianzun, and it said:

"It's the question just now. In this bet, Raven, Merlin, will he die? Can you guarantee it?"

“As long as we win.”

Gao Tianzun raised his finger, and a glass of red wine with ice appeared in his hand. He raised his wine glass to the old devil.

He said:

"Merlin is dead. Are you satisfied with this answer?"

"Hahaha."

The old devil laughed to the sky. He bent down, put his left arm on his abdomen, and his right arm extended outward. He was like the most loyal servant, saying to Gao Tianzun:

"Then, this is the only choice for me."

"I am willing to be loyal to you and strive to serve your victory, sir"

In the old devil's face, in those eyes, burning fires splashed everywhere, like flowing, full of malicious magma.

Its inner fear was strangled at this moment, and it shouted loudly:
Chapter completed!
