This is where Lin Bei is temporarily staying.

At this moment, a series of low murmurs came from the main hall.

Suddenly a kingfisher flew in, carrying a package.

Lin Bei also stopped what he was doing. He had been training the elves in basic skills these past few days, so the task of collecting local specialties naturally fell to Gandalf.

Gandalf also diligently acquired a lot of good things.

However, Lin Bei could only take a liking to some weapons and armor with a certain reputation. As for magical items, only the Elf Gem could catch his eye; the others were just so-so.

In addition, there are some plant seeds and animal offspring that have some value.

Lin Bei casually stuffed the dimensional space that had enveloped him into the box.

Seeing the eagle about to leave, he said, "Wait!"

Cuiying turned around in confusion, tilting her head to look at Lin Bei.

Lin Bei pulled out a letter he had prepared beforehand and said, "Give this letter to Gandalf!"

The eagle scurried over the letter, its neck twisting as if to say, "I'll definitely deliver it."

Watching the eagle soar into the sky, Lin Bei couldn't help but smile and put his arm around the two beautiful elfin women beside him, saying, "It's time to leave this place."

The female elf nestled against Lin Bei and asked, "Are you leaving already?"

Lin Bei couldn't help but laugh and say, "What's wrong? You're reluctant to part with it?"

Female elf: "A little, but I'm more concerned about whether this massage is actually effective."

I don't feel like it's having any effect at all.

Lin Bei replied mysteriously, "This is a long and arduous task; only perseverance will yield results."

He then added, "Of course, if we have the chance, we can still come back and visit."

Chapter 126 Johnny's Incredible Success

Lin Bei's figure reappeared in Kamar-Taj.

Lin Bei naturally greeted Gu Yi, who seemed to have foreseen his return and was waiting there.

"Yo~ Long time no see, Ancient One."

After speaking, he looked at the two uneasy people beside the Ancient One.

A man with a slightly mature appearance and elegant attire, who looked like an ancient Western nobleman who had traveled through time.

A perfectly fitting and correct viewpoint for Amei.

"Who are these two?" Lin Bei had already guessed their identities.

Gu Yi briefly introduced, "These two are my newly accepted disciples."

Carl Mordo.

Modu bowed slightly and greeted, "Greetings, Master Lin."

"Casillas!"

Casillas touched his chest and said, "Master Lin."

Lin Bei raised an eyebrow. He knew that the Ancient One possessed the Time Stone and could see into the timeline, but he still took in these two troublesome guys.

Facing Lin Bei's gaze, Gu Yi didn't explain much, "Lin, your trip has been quite long."

Lin Bei asked directly, "How long have I been gone?"

"It's 90 now, don't you think?"

"It's been so long." Lin Bei was also a little surprised. He had only been out for a short time, but time had passed so quickly.

"Alright! Master Lin, I've been waiting for you specifically because I have a task for you," Gu Yi said.

After saying that, he looked at his two disciples and said, "You two go ahead and get busy."

Mordo and Casillas nodded and then turned to leave.

Only the Ancient One and Lin Bei remained in front of the library in Kamar-Taj.

Lin Bei looked at the library behind him and said, "I don't think there's a place for me here."

Gu nodded and said, "Yes. After all, you've been gone for more than ten years, and a librarian is indispensable."

And do you think Kamar-Taj and all the sorcerers in the world are so carefree?

Those spying on this planet are not only dimensional demons, but also aliens.

Dormammu, in particular, hasn't been very well-behaved these past few years.

"Okay, I knew it." Faced with Gu Yi's accusatory tone, Lin Bei said somewhat guiltily, "What do you want me to do?"

“Mephisto has been overstepping his bounds lately, which violates the agreement he made with Kamar-Taj. I need you to handle it.”

"Gu Yi said."

"Mephisto?" Lin Bei's mind instantly conjured up various pieces of information about Mephisto.

Lin Bei, who had previously worked as a librarian, had long yearned for the name of Mephisto's Hell.

Hell has different names in different universes with different worldviews.

Some call it the underworld, others call it the netherworld.

But in essence, they are all the same: a place to deal with the ever-increasing number of souls, the afterlife.

In the Marvel Universe, Hell is divided among a group of powerful beings.

The largest group is Death, one of the five major powers in Marvel. It has mastered the rules of Death, and most beings in the Marvel multiverse will enter the realm of Death after they die.

The most well-known is Mephisto's Hell, the most famous among all the hell lords.

And then there's Hela, the Asgardian goddess of death.

It was also a casual move by Odin, but unfortunately Hela didn't appreciate it.

Hela is a rather weak ruler of the underworld, only accepting the souls of beings under Asgard's rule. If Odin dies, he will also enter the underworld under Hela's control.

Moreover, the number is relatively fixed, and it's quite simple to revive someone; all you need to do is bring in a scapegoat.

This shows Odin's good intentions.

Moreover, gods in the Marvel Universe aren't so easily claimed; only those who have mastered a portion of the rules can be called gods.

This, of course, resulted in some so-called gods having very weak abilities.

"I remember Mephisto should be pretty well-behaved."

Moreover, the provisions of the magical contract are something he cannot violate.

Gu Yi replied, somewhat weary, "They are professionals after all."

"You mean, Mephisto found a loophole in the magical contracts?!" Lin Bei finished speaking and, after confirming the Ancient One's expression, immediately understood that his guess was true. "If you ask me, why bother signing magical contracts with those professional guys?"

That would be like tying your own hands and feet!

You should have made a verbal agreement back then.

If Mephisto misbehaves, just teach him a lesson.

Fighting the Demon King on a rainy day, I guess I'll just be killing time anyway.

Gu Yi said with a stern face, "That's well said~ Why don't you go now?"

"Hehe~" Lin Bei said awkwardly, "I was just giving you an idea~ How could I steal the credit from you, the Supreme Mage?"

He then changed the subject, asking, "So what exactly happened? And what are the contents of that magic contract?"

Ancient One explained, "Let's start with the magic contract."

Since I became the Sorcerer Supreme, I made a pact with Mephisto that he could appear on this planet in an avatar, but only in exchange for an equal soul.

In short, it's the Devil's Pact, meaning Mephisto can only collect extra souls on this planet by fulfilling the wishes of the contractor through a contract.

"And what are our benefits?" Lin Bei asked, raising his hand.

After glancing at Lin Bei, Gu Yi still replied, "We can use the power of the Hell Dimension to a limited extent, but Mephisto must also ensure that no other Hell Dimension lords appear on this planet."

Furthermore, they also need to help the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj repay a certain price.

Upon hearing this, Lin Bei immediately understood.

This is all for the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj.

It also provided a way out.

The Ancient One continued, "It happened shortly after you left."

Mephisto found a loophole, and somehow managed to retrieve a few Spirits of Vengeance from the River Styx.

I think you should know what the Spirit of Vengeance is.

After Lin Bei's Bible automatically crawled the database of the Heavenly Dimension, it naturally knew some secret things as well.

The Spirit of Vengeance comes from the hand of God in the Heavenly Dimension.

To put it nicely, God discovered that humanity's original sinful nature has not changed.

Having promised not to punish humanity with such cruel methods as the Great Flood, it uses the Spirit of Vengeance to oversee humanity's sinful nature.

But in reality, it's all about replenishing souls to mass produce soldiers.

It's not much different from what Mephisto is doing now.

Seeing Lin Bei nod, Gu Yi continued, "Mephisto spent a long time cultivating a group of believers who worship God."

They also helped them establish a town, which was named San Van González because of the townspeople's piety.

If those townspeople continue to remain devout, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they will become saints in the heavenly dimension after death.

Lin Bei interjected again, "But unsurprisingly, something still went wrong, right?"

"That's right, Mephisto used the Spirit of Vengeance to tempt everyone in a devout town to betray their faith in God."

They were further misled into signing the contract.
