Shadow trail of the beautiful world

Chapter 782 39. Son of Hell+1

"Hey, don't sleep, Strange, wake up."

The sudden sound made Dr. Stephen Strange, who was sleeping soundly, wake up.

He opened his eyes abruptly, and saw the anxious-looking medical student standing in front of him, who was also the temporary assistant for this national tour, Donald Black.

"What's wrong? Donald, it's like the tail is on fire."

Dr. Stephen got up a little angry, he rubbed his eyes, and said dissatisfiedly:

"Is there a problem?"

"A critically ill patient just came into the emergency room, doctor, he was in a car accident, the nerves in his spine were damaged, and he needs spinal fusion surgery, which only you can do."

Thor pointed in the direction of the operating room, rubbed his hands eagerly, and said to the doctor whose expression became serious in front of him:

"Do you want me to be your surgical assistant?"

"you?"

Stephen stood up, flexed his shoulders, and said to Thor:

"You can't, you're just a medical student with too little experience and knowledge, tell Palmer, I need her..."

"Well, she's gone, isn't she?"

"Ah."

Thor nodded, and said:

"Dr. Christine left Austin by plane this morning and went back to New York. Speaking of which, you two had a real quarrel last night."

"I just don't understand why she is so obsessed with staying in the ER when she has better options."

Stephen changed into the surgical gown with the help of Thor, and he said to Thor:

"Donald, you are so handsome, you must be very popular with women, you said..."

"I don't know, doctor, my love life is a mess, I just remembered that I seem to have failed a woman..."

Thor interrupted Dr. Stephen's complaints, saying:

"In short, do you need this hospital to find you another assistant?"

"other people?"

Doctor Strange showed his trademark conceited expression, and he shook his head:

"Others are not as good as you, Donald, you are at least talented, all they have is a mediocre life..."

"Forget it, come with me, I will be the chief surgeon, and you will be the second assistant, and let the best neurosurgeon in this hospital be my first assistant. Hey, what are you doing with your umbrella? There is no such thing in the operating room." position, put it down!"

"But, doctor..."

"No but! I said, put it down, high-achieving undergraduate, come with me, a life is waiting for me to save."

-----------

On the other side, on the roof of a tall building in Austin.

Johnny Blazer woke up from his deep sleep in a dazed state.

He rubbed his head in a daze, and sat up from the ground. His head hurt, his brain was messed up, his body was sore and his back ached, as if he had been riding a bicycle in the dark all night last night.

It's like having a horrible dream, and that dream hasn't woken up until now.

"Are you awake?"

A woman's voice sounded beside Johnny. He turned his head and saw a woman with beautiful long white hair in a bold red jumpsuit, high heels, and a cape sitting on the rooftop. edge.

She was leaning against the wall, as if basking in the sun, with a lady's cigarette in her slender fingers.

This woman is very beautiful, with an extremely perfect figure, and her white chest is very seductive, making a man feel thirsty the first time he sees her, and then he can think of getting up...

But the problem is that there are two weird ornaments on her forehead, which are devil horns twisted into some kind of weird arc.

There are circles of lines on it, and it looks like it has been waxed, glistening in the sun.

"You are..."

Johnny got up from the ground vigilantly, because of his past encounters, he was very vigilant against these ghosts and ghosts.

He was not dazzled by Satana's beauty, he looked at the surrounding environment, and he realized that the scattered and chaotic memories in his mind, the burning skeleton, the crazy laughter, the fight with the thunder, Very likely...

It's not a dream.

"My name is Satana Hellstorm, cutie."

Satana exhaled a puff of smoke from her mouth, she flicked her long hair, her black eyes stared at Johnny, she was sizing up the Ghost Rider.

Well, this face looks rough at first, but with the tasteful beard and slightly messy hair, it looks very prodigal.

Moreover, those blue eyes had a soft light like a lover's, and were melancholy enough to definitely make many women fall into them.

"Don't be afraid, Johnny, I'll take you home."

The female half-devil threw away the cigarette, stood up, and walked towards Johnny who kept retreating with two long legs.

Satana's figure became illusory, dancing afterimages in the sun, and she came to Johnny in an instant. She stretched out her hands and hugged Johnny's cheeks like a lover.

The next moment, those plump and seductive lips were kissing Johnny's mouth.

This is the witch's kiss.

It looks sweet, but it's actually not that comfortable.

During this passionate kiss, Johnny's vitality entered Satana's body like flowing water. After more than ten seconds, Satana let go of Johnny and let out a seductive moan of comfort.

In front of her eyes, Johnny seemed to have aged several decades.

But a force surged in Johnny's body, and in just a few seconds, Johnny's face became young again.

This made Satana's eyes flash with surprise, and she leaned down, planning to have another passionate kiss.

But a gloved hand pressed down on Satana's arm, and forcibly pulled her away from the dazed Johnny Blazer.

"Don't play this dangerous game, sister."

Daemon in human form stepped out from Johnny's shadow, he looked at his sister who was acting out of control dissatisfiedly, and said:

"It's not like you don't know how irritable and difficult to mess with that guy in his body... Merlin is not here, if something happens, it will be difficult for us to end it."

"Ok."

Satana put her fingers on her lips, as if recalling the previous kiss, she stuck out her tongue, licked her lips, and said to Johnny:

"It's a pity, cutie, then we can only play next time."

"Please don't mind the unkind things my sister does, Johnny, my friend."

Damon stretched out his hand and straightened Johnny's collar. The gloomy half-demon said to Johnny who was still unclear about the situation:

"We don't come here with malice, we just extend an invitation to you."

Johnny took a step back, maybe Satana's kiss was dangerous, but the half devil at least looked pleasing to the eye.

Being close to Damon was even worse, like standing in front of a shadowed snake.

The wobbly viper was still spitting, trying to disguise itself as friendliness.

"What invitation?"

Johnny looked at Damon warily, and he asked:

"I don't recall having any contact with you guys before."

"There is no rush to talk about the invitation."

Damon didn't care about Johnny's vigilance. He stood still, with his hands behind his back, and said:

"Do you remember what happened last night?"

"last night..."

Johnny's remaining memories of last night floated in front of his eyes, and he said:

"The devil appeared last night, at midnight, and told me that the covenant... that covenant was activated, and Grace was burned by it with flames, maybe it was a hallucination, but I could hear my locomotive roaring, just It's like having a life of its own..."

"And then, the flames."

Johnny seemed to be back in the situation of last night, he seemed to recall the pain, he stretched out his hand, covered his forehead, and said:

"Fire bursts from under my skin, it burns my flesh, it hurts..."

"That pain, there was a voice roaring, like another self in my soul, it roared and tore my will, endless flames, as if thrown into a burning furnace. ..”

He raised his head, looked at Damon with a pale face, and said:

"It is roaring to let me run in the dark night, let me find those sinners, it is screaming and longing for the judgment to come, and that judgment will be realized by my hands."

"It galloped through the night laughing and leaving a burning ruin, it was confronting a devil emitting black smoke, it met an old man... and then it fought a robot and was thrown into hell again inside..."

"That's right! You guys, you were there! In that barren dark red hell, I saw it! Not only you, but also a demon with a cow's hoof, a swordsman in black armor..."

"There's also a blond man wielding Thunderbolt..."

Johnny's face was full of despair. He looked at his hands, which looked so ordinary in the sun, but they seemed to be cast by fire. Johnny could feel that the more he recalled the scene of last night, the sleeping one in his soul The will becomes more restless.

He was changed, permanently, utterly changed.

He looked at Damon, then at Satana behind Damon, and said:

"I became a monster, the burning monster in my memory is me, right?"

"Yes."

Folding her arms, flicking her blood-red nails with her left hand, Satana said to Johnny:

"In that form, you are not handsome at all, not beautiful at all, very fierce, very powerful, very hot, and very strong, the most important thing is your endurance... quite strong."

"younger sister..."

Damon said helplessly:

"Pay attention to your image, you are a girl after all."

"What's the matter?"

Satana complained dissatisfiedly:

"What's going on in this world now? Don't I even have the power of metaphor and rhetoric?"

"I'm just talking about the facts. If you think wrong, it's the business of you dirty men!"

"You bastards wantonly suppress us women's right to live freely, oh, what a horrible idea! I feel cold all over in this hot weather, can this damn world allow women to live well?"

Damon didn't want to argue with his sister in front of Johnny, it would be unseemly.

So he ignored the arrogant Satana, but looked back at Johnny, and said:

"That burning soul is indeed you, but whether it is a monster or not depends on how you look at it."

"In the eyes of ordinary people, it must be a fierce and ruthless monster, but in the eyes of us, its existence represents a kind of power!"

Damon stretched out his fingers and made a gesture of holding hands. He said to Johnny:

"A power that keeps you from being resigned, a power that allows you to resist fate. Personally, I don't think power is right or wrong...and this is why we invite you .”

"Johnny Blazer!"

Damon stretched out his hand and put it on Johnny's shoulder. He narrowed his eyes and said:

"Do you want to be manipulated by Mephisto for the rest of your life? Don't you have the courage to resist that bad old man in your heart?"

"Snapped"

Damon's hand was opened by Johnny.

The carrier of the Ghost Rider took a step back, he looked at Damon, and he said in disgust:

"Of course I have!"

"Since I was tricked into signing the damn contract more than ten years ago, I have been trying to resist, and I have been working hard to find someone who can help me...but unfortunately, it is not you! "

"I don't know why you want to meddle in this matter, but I don't trust you, and I don't trust any creature that came out of hell."

Johnny gritted his teeth and said:

"I've made the worst mistakes I've ever made by trusting others. I won't be fooled again. Someone can help me. I know. I'll keep looking for him. There's no hope, but I'll..."

"Swish"

Just before Johnny finished speaking, the light of the Transfiguration Curse appeared on the sunny rooftop.

The next moment, Merlin in a slim windbreaker walked out of the distorted light with a blood bone cane.

The cane in his hand has just been remodeled.

On the top of the original cane, a black devil's skull was added in a very artistic way. When Merlin's fingers touched the skull, dark red arcs danced between him.

Xuanlan's craftsmanship is as reliable as ever, and that well-informed spirit is also extremely efficient. In just a few hours, she helped Merlin fix San Van Gonzal's hell barrier on the walking stick .

Not only did it not destroy the original artistry of the cane, but it also added a stronger evil meaning to it.

"Dracula's grave" is a thing of the past.

Because of the eternal barrier of hell, this staff is now renamed "The Power of San Van Gonzale".

Well, thank you Black Heart Prince for your generous gift.

The Black Prince of Heaven would be relieved if he knew that the power he left behind after death would also be used against his wicked father.

Oh, forget it's a devil, it can't go to any heaven.

"Sorry, I'm late, Xuanlan needs to adjust the range and activation method of the enchantment..."

Merlin apologized to his companion, and then looked back at Johnny Blazer who was stunned in place.

He looked at the guy who was almost rescued by himself more than ten years ago. He pushed his glasses and showed a gentle expression that should be on a reunion. He said:

"And, long time no see, Johnny."

"you!"

Johnny stretched out his trembling hand, he pointed at Merlin, and he took a few steps towards Merlin in disbelief.

Although he hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, he still recognized at a glance that the thin and gloomy man in front of him was the one who tried to prevent him from signing with Mephisto that night. "Enthusiastic people".

"It's you! It's really you!"

Johnny quickly rushed to Merlin, he looked at Merlin with eyes mixed with surprise and disappointment, and after a while, he stretched out his hand towards Merlin, he said:

"You probably really can't guess...I've been looking for you so hard all these years..."

"But you found me eventually, didn't you?"

Merlin stretched out his hand to hold Johnny together, and the two looked at each other, that gaze was filled with man's fortitude and friendship's gentleness, as well as a touch of relief of reunion after a long absence and anticipation for the future.

This made Satana on the side couldn't help but widen her eyes.

Uh, she has weird eyes.

"Sorry, ten years ago, I failed to prevent your fate from falling, Johnny."

Merlin says:

"But this time..."

"do not talk."

Johnny held Merlin's hand tightly, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said:

"I believe in you. Although your companions seem unreliable, if this is your invitation, then... I will join!"

"Oh, by the way, I don't know your name yet..."
