A god-level prop master in the Marvel universe

Mephisto, an ancient and evil demon in the Marvel Universe.

His personality is insidious and cunning. He draws power from the human soul and emotions, so he enjoys deceiving humans on Earth into signing contracts with him in order to obtain their souls.

There are two reasons why a "contract" is used.

One reason is that this guy likes to "play." He doesn't enjoy instant destruction, but rather the process of watching these souls slowly fall into depravity.

Secondly, it is due to geographical limitations.

Mephisto is a dimensional lord, and in the Hell dimension he is practically omnipotent; almost nothing can kill him.

But once he leaves the Hell dimension, his power will be lost.

The longer Mephisto is away, the weaker his power becomes. So most of the time, he won't be foolish enough to go to Earth in his physical form. Instead, he will use methods such as illusory projection or creating clones to appear on Earth and look for suitable "prey".

Knowing all this, Luo Bai would certainly not agree to sign the contract. He wouldn't even touch the contract in Mephisto's hands, after all, that guy was ruthless.

Do you remember Johnny from "Ghost Rider"?

However, after glancing at the contract, Johnny accidentally pricked his finger with magic, and the contract immediately took effect after his blood dripped onto it.

If Luo Bai were to touch him, who knows what kind of tricks this guy would pull on him.

Thinking of this, Luo Bai took several steps back, demonstrating his determination through his actions.

But how could Mephisto give up?

With a slight smile, Mephisto earnestly persuaded, "I can sense your thirst for power; otherwise, you wouldn't have brought back so many spellbooks. With your talent, you could study your whole life and still not become a powerful mage. But if you sign this contract, you will gain unparalleled power. Don't you really want to give it a try?"

Luo Bai didn't answer, but only said, "I know who you are, Mephisto, the Lord of Hell. Taking power from you comes at a price."

Mephisto was somewhat surprised to hear Luo Bai call out his name.

Raising an eyebrow, he asked with interest, "You're quite knowledgeable. Did you learn about me from a magic book? How did the book describe me? A great lord of the hellish dimension? Or the omnipotent 'Satan'?"

"Satan" is not a specific character but a name.

The concept of Hell in the Marvel Universe is quite complex, with multiple independent dimensions.

Every dimension has its master, and becoming "Satan" proves that the person is the strongest dimensional lord, so "Satan" is the title for the king of dimensions.

Each dimensional lord is a powerful ruler, and their strength is not to be underestimated. Therefore, most of these dimensional lords are arrogant and believe that they are the strongest. Mephisto is no exception.

only……

"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. The book doesn't give you a very good review, calling you a treacherous, cunning, and mischievous devil."

This wasn't something Luo Bai made up.

After all, most of the spellbooks in Kamar-Taj were written by the Sorcerers Supreme, who generally held these evil lords in low regard.

Hearing Luo Bai say this, Mephisto was furious.

He disregarded his status as a "great lord" and began cursing in a fit of rage: "What idiot wrote this magic book! Reading too much of this kind of children's literature lowers your IQ; they have no idea how great I am!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Bai calmly replied, "It was written by the Supreme Master."

"????"

The duty of every Sorcerer Supreme has been to protect the Earth and expel evil forces. Mephisto, who was once expelled, naturally knows the significance of the title "Sorcerer Supreme".

Luo Bai is reading a magic book written by the Sorcerer Supreme, so it seems he's in cahoots with the Sorcerer Supreme and his group.

"You're Agamotto's disciple?" Mephisto seemed to realize something after saying that, shook his head, and said again, "No, Agamotto was the first Sorcerer Supreme. The Sorcerer Supreme in this century is called the Ancient One, right? So you're the Ancient One's disciple."

Luo Bai corrected, "We're not disciples, we're just exchanging magic ideas."

Mephisto smiled and muttered thoughtfully, "Things are getting interesting."

Luo Bai's soul originated from an unknown world, which is why he attracted Mephisto.

Mephisto thought it wouldn't be difficult for Luo Bai to sign a contract; he could just "fool" him a bit and use some magic to settle it.

He hadn't expected that Luo Bai knew him, or even that Luo Bai was a disciple of Kamar-Taj.

The idea of ​​corrupting a respectable monk sounds even more interesting.

In an instant, Mephisto found the whole thing amusing.

However, Luo Bai is different from ordinary humans. He is wary of him and not so easy to "fool" him, so he can only go back and discuss this matter further.

"I think you'll need me," Mephisto said before disappearing with his contract.

Watching Mephisto leave, Luo Bai fell into deep thought.

It wouldn't matter if this demon targeted us a little later.

After all, Doraemon has many top-tier gadgets that can deal with Mephisto, similar to some causal gadgets that ignore the rules.

However, he hasn't collected all the items yet, so there's not much he can do for the time being.

Fortunately, Mephisto has limitations on Earth. If he firmly refuses to sign the contract, there's not much he can do to Luo Bai.

The only worry is that Mephisto might resort to underhanded tactics.

crackling-

Just as Luo Bai was pondering, a series of familiar sounds of shattering glass rang out.

The voice was familiar to Luo Bai; it came from the Mirror Space.

Sure enough, the Ancient One appeared the next second.

The reason she was there was not hard to guess. Before she could speak, Luo Bai said, "Ancient One, you're too late. Mephisto has already left."

It seems that Gu Yi already knew about this, so she wasn't surprised.

After staring at Luo Bai for a while, Gu Yi said, "It seems you didn't sign a contract with him."

Luo Bai shook his head and said, "Making a deal with a demon comes at a high price, and I don't think I need to take that risk."

Gu Yi nodded, a rare expression of relief appearing on her face.

"Mephisto is the most cunning demon. He often seeks out souls on Earth. I have tried to exorcise him a few times, but I found that they were just his clones. His true form is always in the Hell dimension. It is not easy to completely eliminate him."

"However, his personality is different from other demons who enjoy destruction. He won't do anything to you; he'll just try to slowly destroy your mind."

"If you cultivate yourself properly, he won't be able to affect you."

Gu Yi offered a brief explanation.

These were similar to what Luo Bai knew, so Luo Bai didn't ask any more questions and only said, "I think my mind is still quite firm."

The Ancient One didn't say anything, but handed over a magic scroll.

Luo Bai took the scroll and glanced at it. It contained a lot of text that Luo Bai couldn't understand.

"What is this?" Luo Bai asked.

The Ancient One said calmly, "This scroll contains powerful protective spells. You can enhance your mind simply by reciting the spells. It also contains my power, which can resist certain mental attacks and control."
