The mechanical craze in Marvel

Otherwise, they have no control over what will happen in the future. Under these circumstances, he is now a little anxious. He doesn't want to stay here any longer, so Stephen Strange directly deactivated the mirror space.

Everyone appeared in reality.

Upon seeing Nolan Locke and Stephen Strange appear, the others quickly came over. Their faces, which had previously been tinged with a greenish tinge, completely disappeared upon seeing their faces.

They were initially worried about Nolan Locke, and also about whether Strange would be harmed by the two dimensional lords, since they knew that the two dimensional lords were not at their peak.

However, the existence and prestige of the Dimensional Lords were not fabricated. Back then, the entire Earth was in awe of the Dimensional Lords' reputation, and even the power of the entire Earth was probably no match for them. But now they have to deal with two Dimensional Lords.

However, after seeing the two appear, everyone's expressions finally calmed down, which at least showed that they hadn't encountered too much trouble in this matter.

Wanda smiled and said:

“Mr. Locke, you’ve finally come out. If you hadn’t, I’m afraid I would have had to use the power of chaos magic to break the mirror space and try to rescue you.”

Hela, who was standing to the side, remained silent.

Unlike Wanda, he was well aware of Nolan Locke's power and had no concerns whatsoever about whether Nolan Locke could defeat the two of them. Therefore, he believed that Nolan Locke would definitely appear on Earth; he was just unsure when he would arrive and be able to defeat them.

However, it now seems that the gap between the two and Norland is indeed huge. Norland has already killed them completely in just a short time. And now there is another problem, which is the Ghost Rider, Johnny Blaze, who is not far from them.

While Nolan Locke was dealing with the trouble, they weren't idle either. Before interrogating Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze, Nolan Locke used magic to seal him off, while simultaneously greatly weakening the power of the Spirit of Vengeance. Under these circumstances, Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze felt that his contract with the Spirit of Vengeance had become extremely thin. He was overjoyed, though he didn't know what the future held, but he absolutely didn't want to share a body with the Spirit of Vengeance.

Therefore, he is willing to pay any price for this.

At this moment, when Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze saw Nolan Locke come out, a look of joy appeared on his face. After all, this was a great thing. With Nolan Locke around, he might be able to break the contract with Ghost Rider. There was also an even happier fact.

That was after the shattered mirror space appeared, he saw a corpse—the corpse of Mephisto, his master. Although Mephisto didn't appear on Earth often and possessed considerable autonomy, it couldn't disobey Mephisto's orders, including this mission to deal with Nolan Locke, which was actually ordered by Mephisto.

Although Morpheus is not on Earth, he remotely controls everything on Earth, having Johnny Blaze report on various situations and even gradually changing his mind, causing it to develop towards a spirit of vengeance.

He believed that if things continued like this, one day he would be completely consumed by the Spirit of Vengeance. That's why he did all sorts of crazy things in an attempt to get rid of the Spirit of Vengeance. However, he didn't expect that after making so many preparations, they would still fail to kill Nolan Locke. But it didn't matter, because he had already broken free from the Spirit of Vengeance's control.

So he looked at Nolan Locke expectantly.

Nolan Locke's face was rather stern.

However, when he saw Wanda, a smile appeared on his face, and he said:

"It seems you won't have that opportunity. In fact, I'm quite confident in my own strength. Although Mephisto and Dormammu are quite powerful, they are nothing more than ants compared to me, the kind I can crush at any time."

Upon hearing Erlanlock's boast, Wanda pursed her lips but said nothing, only smiling.

He knew, of course, that Nolan Locke's words were somewhat exaggerated, but that did not affect his impression of Nolan Locke.

He even wanted to get closer to Nolan Locke more and more, but he didn't know how to bring it up so that Nolan Locke would accept him.

Under these circumstances, Wanda became increasingly distressed, but he didn't have any better solutions. So he could only continue with the various tasks that followed, hoping to gradually get closer to Nolan Locke through these simple methods. He believed that one day he would be able to make Nolan Locke accept him.

Stephen Strange quickly spoke up:

"I'm sorry, the situation is a bit complicated right now. Because of some things that Morpheus did, Nolan Locke may have some hidden dangers, and we need to deal with them in time."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed. They never expected that Nolan Locke had left some hidden dangers when facing Mo Fei Suzhou. In particular, Hela frowned and walked to Nolan Locke's side, then probed Nolan Locke's body with her death power. Although Nolan Locke was not the God of Death, he had a very difficult feeling to accept this kind of death power.

However, with his formidable strength, even Hela, when this power entered his body, did not experience too much discomfort for Nolan Locke, so he managed to persevere. After Hela had the power of death circulate through Nolan Locke's body, her expression changed drastically.

"It's the Lock of Hell!"

Upon hearing Hai Da's words, everyone looked at him, and Nolan Locke also looked at Hela.

Judging from Hela's words, he clearly had some understanding of this energy erosion. In fact, Nolan Locke had already sensed something different through his own body. He could feel that something was slowly eroding his body, and if this continued, his power would gradually be dissolved.

He wasn't sure how long this dissolution would last, but he was certain that the corrosive power wouldn't take his life in the short term. This gave him enough time to find a solution. However, he never expected that Hela would know about the existence of this curse.

Hela spoke with a solemn expression:

"I don't know much about this curse, but I have heard of it. It is extremely terrible, and no one knows where it comes from."

Unexpectedly, this was a curse from Mephisto. However, the power of this curse is terrifying. Its erosion is not very serious, but it will gradually wear down a person's life and strength.

After it has devoured all life and power, it will eventually disappear on its own. This damned power is like a lock, completely and firmly binding a person's strength, hence its name, the Lock of Hell.

Nolan Locke's expression turned somewhat grim after hearing Hela's words.

Stephen Strange then spoke to Nolan Locke:

"You don't need to worry too much. Although this power is indeed a bit troublesome, I believe that the Sorcerer Supreme's Library definitely has records of this power. I think that as long as we find the records of this power, we will be able to find some solutions."

Since this power has appeared before, it means it's not something extremely mysterious. Even in the worst-case scenario, we can find Morpheus who will personally remove this damned curse.

Stephen Strange spoke with great confidence. He knew that Nolan Locke was extremely powerful, and even the First Group would find it difficult to take Nolan Locke's life. As long as they could find Mephisto before Nolan Locke's power was underestimated, they could break the curse.

Of course, entering the dimension to find Mephisto and obtaining a way to break free from his control is no easy task. After all, Mephisto's power is immense in his own world. But even so, he believes that with all their combined strength, they can definitely fight Mephisto.

He wasn't particularly worried about this situation, but it was the worst possible solution, since it was only a possibility. If a solution could be found, that would be the best solution.

Nolan Locke nodded upon hearing Stephen Strange's words. He wasn't overly concerned; if there was a solution, it would surely be resolved, so he wasn't particularly worried. Then, Nolan Locke looked at Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze, who was standing to the side.

"Now it's time to resolve our issues. To be honest, I really dislike you. I have no good feelings towards anyone who wants to hack into Locke Technology."

Are you ready now?

Get ready to die.

Nolan Locke's voice was extremely cold.

He could repent, but death was already inevitable!

Chapter 376 Separation

Upon hearing Nolan Locke's words, Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze paused for a moment.

He had thought he still had a chance to survive, but he didn't expect Nolan Locke to be so decisive, and even ready to issue the order. Under these circumstances, Johnny Blaze, the Ghost Rider, looked a little ugly.

However, he had come to terms with it now. After all, he could no longer escape from Nolan Locke; everything Nolan Locke was doing was his fate. Even so, he still felt some resentment. Thinking of this, Johnny Blaze spoke:

"Nolan Locke, you are one of the few strong people I admire on Earth. I'm not saying this to ask you to let me go."

It's simply because you truly deserve that title.

Perhaps many people think your actions are excessive, but in my opinion, you possess extremely powerful strength, enough to surpass the entire Earth, yet you still maintain a heart to protect the Earth. Under such circumstances, I think this is a very difficult thing.

Even I, if it weren't for the Spirit of Vengeance and Mephisto's control, might have become so inflated by my own power that I would have done some unimaginable things to Earth.

Perhaps some people can't understand you, but I can completely understand you.

At this point, Johnny Blaze smiled slightly.

"In fact, I had already prepared for my fate, but I was still very unwilling because I did not want my life to end with the Spirit of Vengeance."

The Spirit of Vengeance has controlled me for a long time, and under these circumstances, it has even gradually eroded my soul, making me less pure as a human being. I hope that even in death I will not be with the Spirit of Vengeance.

A look of longing and anticipation appeared on Gunnibraze's face.

He knew what he had done all these years, and he knew what he was like back then. He was not worthy of the police officers from Nolan Locke, because what he had done was not something that could be solved by repentance. But even so, he still had his last humble hope.

He wished he could die as a human being, not as a one-dimensional slave.

Nolan Locke glanced at Johnny Blaze, then nodded.

"Of course I will make sure you die as a human. I will never let you be controlled by the spirit of vengeance and then just perish."

Nolan Locke said this with great seriousness.

Even though he was prepared to kill Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze, he also knew that Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze had indeed done some things that were beneficial to Earth and helped some people.

However, the merits he achieved were not enough to offset the sins he had committed.

As Mephisto's contractor, he was under Mephisto's control; even a small piece of information could erase all the good things he had done.

Furthermore, Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze wasn't exactly a great philanthropist, so Nolan Locke had no intention of releasing Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze from any perspective.

Even so, Snowland Locke gave Ghost Rider, Johnny Blaze, the final moment, the dignity he deserved, allowing him to die as a human, Johnny Blaze.

Upon hearing Nolan Locke's words, Johnny Blaze finally smiled.

"Thank you."

Gunner Brad said those words, and then he closed his eyes.

He was prepared to die.

However, Nolan Locke looked towards Stephen Strange.

They are now facing serious problems.

However, the troubles surrounding Norlandek are not the most pressing issue right now. After all, his troubles are not so easy to resolve, and Stephen Strange would need to go back to the library to research and search before he could possibly reach a conclusion. The real problem now is how to completely destroy the Spirit of Vengeance and Johnny Blaze's contract.

The contract between the two was very strong, because from the moment Mephisto made the contract with Johnny Blaze, he had no intention of releasing Johnny Blaze. Moreover, he was very clear that if Ghost Rider's power were placed on a human, it would make that human's power more terrifying than ever before.

In his view, Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze would possess power comparable to his own, and he naturally couldn't allow such a powerful being to escape his control. Therefore, this contract was the most stringent one, one that even Nophisto himself probably didn't have the power to break.

Even so, Nolan Locke had no intention of giving up, because he absolutely could not tolerate this happening.

Stephen Strange noticed Nolan Locke's gaze and, after considering it for a moment, spoke:

"The contract on him is very strong, but breaking it is not impossible."

At this point, Stephen Strange smiled.

"Perhaps resolving this contract was impossible before, but the situation is different now."

Fortunately, most of Mephisto's power has now been destroyed, and some of it was just destroyed; the remaining power is still on Earth.

"If we can utilize this remaining power, and given that Mephisto no longer has the strength to control the contract, we might be able to find a loophole and gain an opportunity to break the contract. Although the possibility is extremely small, at least we have a possibility. The next step is to figure out how to expand that possibility."

Although he said the possibility was very small, there was no sign of distress on his face. In contrast, Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze's eyes dimmed after hearing Stephen Strange's words. He thought he was doomed and that he would probably die with Lin of Vengeance, which was not the outcome he wanted. He hoped that even if he died, he would die as a human, not as a demon.

However, he was even less likely to beg Nolan Locke to let it go, because he knew very well that Nolan Locke would never do such a thing. For Nolan Locke, an enemy is an enemy, and there would never be a second option.

He observed Nolan Locke for a very long time because the reason Mephisto was unable to invade Earth was because of Nolan Locke's appearance. So after that, Mephisto instructed him to focus on the matter of the Section 10. Moreover, for Ghost Rider himself, Nolan Locke was the enemy he needed to be most wary of.

The reason is very simple: Nolan Locke's power is simply too great. Even when Nolan Locke did not have such great power, the various weapons and equipment produced by his Locke Technology were still an extremely terrifying existence on this earth.

It can be said that Locke Technology, through its own efforts, has more than doubled the military strength of the entire planet.

At that time, Ghost Rider Johnny Bray even considered having Nolan Locke become Morpheus.

It was only because he knew that Nolan Locke was too powerful and that his rise to power was too terrifying that he gradually gave up the idea. After Nolan Locke fought against Thanos, the idea in his mind completely disappeared, and he no longer considered doing anything to Nolan Locke.

It wasn't until later that I noticed the followers of Hades, the god of the underworld.

His mind started working again after he discovered their intention to target Locke Technology, because he knew very well that it was where he was hidden, the only possibility to escape the power of vengeance and Mephisto.

However, he did not expect that although his idea was good, Nolan Locke's strength was too great, so in the end he was able to get away with it.
