He's in Marvel, working behind the scenes.

After Mephisto finished speaking, he explained, "Princess Sun, I have no intention of offending you, but you also need to understand the difference between the King of Hell and your sworn brother... Even though I have been away from Hell for a long time, my power is still enough to defeat him, even if he has become a demon god!"

Seeing this, Morgan said no more.

No matter how unwilling she was, that was the truth.

"I don't trust you, and I will never act with you."

Gu Qing spoke up at this moment.

Mephisto didn't seem to care and laughed, "We can sign a contract."

"In the future, everyone will know that Mephisto's contract is a trap and should not be signed."

"nonsense!"

Mephisto's face turned pale with anger, and he roared, "I, Mephisto, am a man of my word! How could I slander someone without cause? There must be some misunderstanding!"

"Ha ha……"

Gu Qing sneered, "You certainly won't break the contract, but you will use information asymmetry to create conditions that are advantageous to yourself."

"This is an operation within the rules, and it is reasonable and legal."

"But I can choose not to play with you."

"Okay, what do you want?"

Mephisto ultimately had no choice but to compromise.

When dealing with someone who knows you inside and out, you can't be as easily fooled as those naive and innocent girls. Besides, since you need their help, you have no choice but to compromise.

"Lend me some strength."

"Borrow strength!"

Mephisto's eyes lit up, and he immediately perked up. "Borrowing power is great! I'm an expert in this area, I have..."

"Hellfire".

Gu Qing interrupted Mephisto's sales pitch, saying, "I only want Hellfire, the rest is fine. In return, I need to help you kill Zarathos."

Mephisto has many powers.

Among them, the ability to modify the timeline, alter reality, manipulate life and souls, and summon demonic minions is very powerful.

But Gu Qing was unfamiliar with all of these things.

If he rashly made a deal with him, he wouldn't even know how he got ripped off. So he chose the power he was familiar with, which originated from Hell, rather than Mephisto himself.

The Hellfire is no less powerful than Mephisto himself, and may even be stronger.

Ghost Rider's power source is Hellfire.

Enchant weapons, the Eye of Judgment, enchanted mounts, shapeshifting weapons, immortality... these are all skills derived from Hellfire.

But the power of Hellfire goes far beyond that.

It has many more uses.

Mephisto hesitated upon hearing Gu Qing's request.

It's not that I'm reluctant to part with it.

Hellfire, a special flame born in hell, is not exactly ubiquitous, but it is more than enough, and new karmic fire is born every moment.

However, it is inherently a devil.

Mephisto instinctively wanted to make a fortune whenever he heard the word "contract."

But Gu Qing had already set out what both parties needed to pay in the transaction, so there was no way to cheat them.

However, while the details of the transaction cannot be altered, the wording can be manipulated.

Mephisto's eyes darted around, a smile spreading across his face, but he already had a plan in mind.

"can."

Mephisto agreed to Gu Qing's conditions, stretched out his right hand, and conjured up parchment and a quill pen. "To ensure that both parties abide by the agreement, it would be best if we signed a contract."

As he spoke, he picked up a pen and began writing the contract.

Before long, the contract was written.

It uses some kind of ancient script.

Gu Qing didn't recognize it, but was able to understand it under the influence of magic.

The details are as follows: From this day forward, I, Mephisto, will lend Gu Qing the fire of hell, and Gu Qing will have to kill the elemental demon Zatanos as the price.

If Gu Qing fails to fulfill the agreement, Hellfire and the most important thing in his life will be taken back. If Mephisto violates the agreement, the authority over Hellfire will be automatically granted to Gu Qing.

The trap of the contract is obvious: Gu Qing is to kill Zatanos.

Gu Qing and Morgan LeFee discussed having Hawke wield the sword, so it's highly likely that Hawke will be the one to ultimately slay the demon god... Although Hawke is his puppet and there's no need to distinguish between them, the contract doesn't care about that.

What's written on it is what it is.

Is there a problem with this contract?

Gu Qing handed the contract to Morgan.

The girl glanced at it casually and said indifferently, "The name specifies that you must kill Zatanos yourself, and the time is not specified, so there is a lot of room for maneuver."

"Thank you."

Gu Qing nodded and then handed it to Mephisto.

The meaning is clear: either write it clearly, or talk nonsense.

Mephisto glared at Morgan, and the contract was rewritten and made clear.

Gu Qing showed it to Morgan again, but was still not reassured. She spent another 10,000 wish points to check it with the system, and only after confirming that there were no problems did she write her name on it.

Suddenly, a flood of information entered my mind.

That is the location of hell. As long as you have the will, you can borrow the fire of hell.

Gu Qing took a deep breath and then closed her eyes.

The next second, he opened his eyes, which were burning with flames.

He has mastered the fires of hell.

"The contract has been signed, so please, Savior, act swiftly!"

Mephisto rolled up the contract and said bluntly.

Although he was a little annoyed that he couldn't trick Gu Qing, it was a fair trade after all, so he didn't lose out.

"I would have done it even without you telling me."

After Gu Qing finished speaking, she looked at Morgan and said, "Could you give me a quiet room? I need to find some help."

The girl slightly widened her bright eyes, then looked at the bewildered Mephisto and asked, "The helper you mentioned before wasn't this King of Hell?"

"Of course not, I didn't even know he was in the house."

When Gu Qing talked about this, a smile couldn't help but appear on his lips.

Mephisto, however, was somewhat irritated.

Anyone would be furious to discover that their actions were presumptuous, and this king of hell was no exception.

But since things have come to this, there's nothing more to say.

……

The tower is over a thousand meters high, like a celestial sword piercing the clouds, and naturally has empty rooms.

Morgan spoke to the steward and asked for a room.

Gu Qing and Hawke sat cross-legged on the bed, pretending to inscribe a six-pointed star magic circle on the ground, and then spent 10,000 wish points to create spatial magic fluctuations.

Once everything was finished, he calmed down and focused his mind.

"System, draw a prize."

"One draw for every 100,000, let's start with ten draws."

The doll in the UP pool is an S-rank nine-star.

You need to spend 100,000 yuan on the lottery to have a relatively high chance of winning.

[Ding! You have obtained an A-grade doll fragment!]

[Ding! You have obtained a B-grade doll fragment!]

[Ding! You have obtained a D-grade doll fragment!]

……

Four fragments at the start, a normal start.

Gu Qing remained calm and continued to wait for the result.

[Ding! You have obtained a B-grade doll fragment!]
