Chapter 802 You Can Run, I Can Fly
Seeing that Johnny insisted on saving his girlfriend, the old man sighed, picked up the shovel beside him, and smashed the shovel head with a bang.
Only then did Johnny realize that the shovel handle was hollow.
The old man guarding the tomb pulled out a thin scroll from it: "Contract of St. Van Gonzalo."
Johnny reached for it.
The old man avoided his hand: "Can I trust you?"
Johnny was silent for a moment: "They took my soul, but they can't control my heart."
The old man laughed: "Anyone who has the courage to sell their soul for love has the power to change the world. Remember what you said!"
With that said, he handed the scroll to Johnny.
Johnny Results Scroll: "Uh, where's Santa Van Gonzalo?"
The old man: "About 200 kilometers southwest, we have to leave quickly." Then he walked outside the cemetery.
Johnny put the scroll in his pocket and followed the old man's footsteps: "Us?"
On the way to the cemetery, the old man put his finger in his mouth and gave a crisp whistle.
A horse's neigh suddenly sounded not far away, and the horse's hooves clacked on the ground, quickly approaching the two of them.
A black horse suddenly emerged from the misty night, ran briskly until the old man's face stopped, and rubbed the old man with his big head affectionately.
The old man turned on his horse: "I think I can ride it one last time."
As he spoke, flames erupted from his head and spread downward.
A skeleton knight appeared in front of Johnny.
Johnny looked at this scene in astonishment, and suddenly realized: "Carter Slay?"
The skeleton knight nodded slightly.
Luke was not too surprised.
Carter Shree is the last Ghost Rider mentioned by the old tomb guard himself.
In order to prevent Mephisto from getting the contract of St. Van Gonzalo with great power,
Carter Slay betrayed, ran away with the contract and disappeared without a trace.
Well, from this point of view, the Ghost Rider Mephisto was looking for was not very obedient.
But on the other hand, Ghost Rider also has the term "qualified person".
If anyone could wield the power of Ghost Rider, Mephisto wouldn't have to pick and choose who would receive this power.
And those who get this power, Mephisto is definitely not easy to control them.
Johnny looked at the horse suspiciously: "Can it keep up?"
Carter's skeleton grinned, as if smiling, and the flames on his body suddenly spread to the black horse who sat down.
The originally unremarkable dark horse, flames erupted from its four hooves and eyes, spewed sparks from its nostrils and mouth, scratched its hooves a few times, tilted its head, and seemed to despise Johnny for this question.
Johnny: "...Okay, let's go." As he said that, flames rose all over his body and turned into a Ghost Rider.
The next moment, the rumbling sound of the engine was mixed with the crisp sound of horses' hoofs, and the carts and horses galloped away.
Luke sighed: "You guys play with me."
Even if these two guys transform themselves, they can use that flame to change the nature of their mounts, which is really cheating.
Regardless of whether it is a dark horse or a retro motorcycle, after being possessed by the flames, it immediately becomes a super vehicle, and the speed exceeds 300 kilometers per hour in a short period of time.
Moreover, the two guys were still heading west on the field, not taking the road at all.
It is difficult for a Kaixuan motorcycle to drive this speed on the highway. Luke snorted, put away the motorcycle, released a small plane in the open space, and muttered: "I can't run, I can't use it yet. ."
Above the night sky, you can see a line of fire and a string of hoof prints on the ground from a distance, and he will not chase these two guys away.
But looking at the two people in front of him, especially the handsome skeleton horse, Luke was a little jealous, but he could only drool at the car and horse below.
Secondly, although the transformation of Ghost Rider is too high-profile, it is really handsome and can hide his identity.
After the Ghost Rider appeared, it was a skeleton, and it was not easy to see the size of this thing.
When Luke was bored, he even reconstructed the face of Johnny's skull. It wasn't that Johnny himself was different, but the face of another unfamiliar man.
Obviously, this skeleton body of Ghost Rider is not Johnny.
However, Johnny just completed his transformation in the detention room, and the role of hiding his identity is out of the question. He blinded such a good vest.
On the other hand, Ghost Rider is transformed from the evil spirit given by Mephisto.
Luke never thought of selling his soul.
Even if Mephisto disregarded his previous suspicions and was willing to sign a contract with him, Luke would not be able to sell his soul.
Before being beaten back to hell by the system to play in the mud, the boss inadvertently mentioned that Luke's soul had signed a contract with "people".
Now that I think about it, he should be referring to the system.
The same is true, the system that usually never takes the initiative will block any attempts to invade its "territory" (reject the mental energy link), and also actively attack Mephisto.
Conversely, as long as the enemy doesn't do anything to Luke's soul and spirit, the system will not react.
In this way, Luke, who was thinking about things in the air, followed the two evil spirit knights below for more than 20 minutes and arrived at the ruins of the town of St. Van Gonzalo.
Looking at the wreckage of the dark village not far away, the flames on Carter Shire went out, and he returned to his old-fashioned appearance: "I'll send you here."
Johnny was a little stunned: "You, don't you come with me?"
He also thought that Carter and Shree came here to help save people, so how could it be over for a while?
Carter Srey was helpless: "I'm too old, and Ghost Rider's energy is almost exhausted. I'm sending you here just to fulfill my wish."
Johnny: "What wish?"
Carter Srey: "I want to make sure that there are people who will continue to fight demons after I die."
He threw a Winchester shotgun from his horse. "Go on, boy."
Johnny took the gun, Carter Srey pulled the reins, the black horse under his crotch made a rhythm, his fore hooves vacated and he turned around, turned the horse's head, and walked ticking along the way.
One person and one horse quickly disappeared into the thick darkness.
Johnny was speechless.
Carter Shree was the Ghost Rider a hundred and fifty years ago, and his ability to live to the present depends entirely on the energy of the Ghost Rider to support his aged body.
But this support is limited and not enough to make people live forever.
At this moment, Carter and Shree handed over the contract of Saint Van Gonzalo, which had been guarding for more than a hundred years, to Johnny.
This represents his only concern and responsibility, and it is also handed over to Johnny, the new generation of Ghost Rider.
Having lived for nearly two hundred years, he has nothing to linger on. Accompanying Johnny to run this last ride also means that the story of his former Ghost Rider has come to an end.
From now on, only the new knight, Johnny, will go forward alone.
Johnny watched Carter Slay disappear behind a small dirt slope, and then put away the melancholy that seemed to be absent, and continued to advance to the ruins of St. Van Gonzalo.
