The Hell Merchant in American Comics

Sacrifice is the devil's favorite ritual.

There are generally two types of sacrificial rituals, one is sacrificing to the devil, and the other is sacrificing to hell.The main difference between the two rituals lies in the objects of sacrifice. If the object of sacrifice is the devil, then gold, silver, jewelry, poultry and livestock are all allowed. But if the object of sacrifice is hell, then only magical objects can be offered. Only with rare treasures, or humans, can the ritual be successful.

Alec couldn't find the rare treasures yet, so he focused on people.

There are always people who deserve to die in this world.

Alec set his sights on prison, and only prison could allow him to gather the number of people needed for sacrifice in a short period of time.

The crime rate in the United States is very high. This country with a population of only 3 million has a prison population of more than 300 million.In other words, on average, 100 in 1 people in the United States is serving time in prison.This helped Alec a lot, and he quickly targeted New York. This city has many large prisons, the most famous of which is the Island City Prison.

As the name suggests, this prison is built on an isolated island.

Only in this kind of place can the sacrifice be carried out without anyone noticing.

As one of the largest prisons in New York City, Island City Prison is heavily guarded, with more than a hundred prison guards armed with guns.The high towers surrounding the prison are equipped with high-power searchlights, thermal imaging telescopes, radars and other equipment, and are guarded by five elite snipers in shifts.There are cliffs on all sides outside the prison, and there is only one port that can be used to disembark, where a battalion of about 5 troops is stationed.In addition, in the waters surrounding the prison, three motorboats patrol 900 hours a day. Each motorboat has 3 people on board and carries a heavy machine gun.

Alec stared at the information and remained silent.

With this level of defense, it is impossible to fight head-on. Let alone Alec, a low-level devil, even if Iron Man comes, he has to weigh it.

It is difficult to control the island city prison silently.

Alec designed several plans in succession, but chose to give up in the end.

His own strength is too low, and the defense of the island city prison is too strong. No matter what plan he makes, the success rate is not optimistic.

New York City, Waldorf Astoria Hotel.

As the number one restaurant in New York City, the Waldorf Astoria Hotel never lacks guests, and the famous Tony Stark is a frequent guest here.Of course, as the top rich man in the United States and the head of Stark Enterprises, Tony would book the entire restaurant in advance every time he came, and invite a group of handsome guys and beauties to have a party.

In terms of style, Alec still admires Tony.

As a celebrity, Tony's whereabouts are not secretive. When he goes to the Waldorf Astoria Hotel again, Alec quickly gets the news.

Tony was his most promising client. After receiving the news, Alec did not hesitate and immediately put down his work and took a car to the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.What made him regretful was that because the sacrificial ceremony was not completed, he was unable to produce the contract documents. In other words, at best, he could only be familiar with Tony. As for the transaction, it would only be done later.

There were two groups of people waiting at the door of the hotel, namely the hotel's security guards and Tony's personal bodyguards.

Alec didn't have an invitation, but this level of defense couldn't stop him.He parked the car, threw the keys to the waiter, then walked forward with a calm face, secretly used mental suggestion to the security guard guarding the door, and then easily slipped in.

The party hasn't started yet.

Alec walked around the hall and didn't see Tony Stark. He quickly found a seat to sit down and hooked up with the two beauties.

Partygoers came in one after another, and among these people, Alec discovered a very interesting figure.

Phil Colson.

He's from S.H.I.E.L.D.

Alec has not had any contact with Coulson, his power is still in the accumulation stage, and his relationship network has not yet been formed. Entering SHIELD's sight too early may not be a good thing.In fact, Alec is worried about not only SHIELD, but also Hydra, which is hidden behind SHIELD. Although the devil is from the evil camp, he also has no favorable impression of terrorist organizations like Hydra.

There are many factors causing this, the most important of which is the devil's demand for the soul.

Only pure souls can be used by the devil.

To put it simply, the souls of good people ascend to the upper plane, which is the Mountain of the Gods; the souls of villains fall into hell and are swallowed by the devil.The souls of ordinary people are so mixed that they can neither go to high planes nor low planes, and will only stay in the world where they are and slowly die.Such souls are what the devil hates the most, because even if they capture such a soul, they cannot obtain soul coins by forging soul fire. The messy soul will collapse directly in the flames, and not even the scum will be left.

The war brings almost all the souls of ordinary people, and these souls cannot be used by the devils at all.

Soon, Tony walked in wearing a high-end suit and black sunglasses.

There was a burst of cheers at the party, and Tony walked onto the stage with a smile on his face, casually summoned the two beauties, and loudly announced the start of the banquet.Music started playing immediately, and ten sexy beauties walked into the venue holding champagne.

The banquet lasted for a long time, until it got a little dark and the atmosphere finally cooled down.

Tony, who was tired of playing, noticed Alec. He hesitated for a moment, came over, sat down next to a few people, and asked: "Hey, it seems that I have a new friend at my party. I don't know what to call him sir."

"Alec Gage."

Tony raised the wine glass in his hand, clinked it with Alec, and asked, "Let me guess, you are a reporter."

Alec smiled slightly: "No."

"cia agent"

"Not at all."

Tony frowned, thought for a long time, and asked, "Is your girlfriend here?"

Alec laughed, without being angry, and said with a smile: "To be honest, I admire Mr. Stark's imagination very much, but unfortunately, you didn't guess it right. I'd better reveal the answer. I am a businessman, generally Selling some of the more precious things.”

Tony was stunned.

“Let’s talk about precious things”

Several runes flashed in Alec's hand.

spiritual suggestion

"Yes, such as some "special" personal guards, a trip to another world, and of course, the most precious time."

Stark was stunned for a moment, then stared at Alec, as if trying to tell whether he was a liar.After a long time, he whispered: "I have seen many businessmen. Even I can be said to be a businessman, but Mr. Gage is really rare. I would rather I believe you are a lunatic who somehow got into my party."

"Do I look crazy?"

"If you look like a madman, I have already asked someone to kick you out." Tony paused and said, "I am very interested in the products you mentioned. If you can prove their authenticity, I will be very happy to become your customer of."
