Chapter 282: Signing a Contract and Falling Out
"I wanted you to see the soul of this kid to prove my identity, but now it seems that it is not necessary..." Seeing the indifferent look of the clown, Mephisto shook his head with some regret, and a white soul disappeared into the crack of hell that just appeared.
It can be said that this red nose is really unlucky. He originally came here to work part-time, but he died tragically here, and the clown and Mephisto jointly completed a one-stop service from killing to salvation...
"So, Mr. Devil, do you have something to ask me?" The clown sat on a chair beside him. He vaguely saw the white soul, but he did not react at all. It was just a soul, which could not affect the clown at all.
Even if there was no cup, the clown would want to drink with the gentleman devil in front of him. After all, the demons he had seen before had never looked like this.
"I can see that you have a very strong obsession in your heart, and I can help you fulfill this obsession!" Mephisto said with a smile as he looked at the clown.
In Mephisto's opinion, the Joker's obsession was so deep that he must be extremely eager to complete it. As long as he threw out a little bit of benefits and helped the Joker complete his obsession, then the Joker, the most evil human soul he had ever seen, would not be easy to catch?
"Complete the obsession?" A smile suddenly appeared on the Joker's face, because he felt that the demon in front of him seemed to be no different from General Yinka. They were all so-called extraordinary people who could not see through his heart at all, but felt that they could see through people's hearts.
"Hmm?" Mephisto frowned when he saw the Joker's reaction. He found that there was a hint of sarcasm in the Joker's smile, but Mephisto did not understand what the Joker's sarcastic smile meant.
"Do you doubt that I can't help you complete your obsession?" Mephisto asked the Joker with his eyes narrowed.
"Yes, some obsessions cannot be achieved by ability!" The Joker nodded and said with a slight flicker in his eyes.
"That's because you know nothing about true power!" Mephisto's voice was full of temptation, and he looked at the Joker and said with a smile, "As long as you accept my power, no matter what kind of obsession you have, you can accomplish it!"
"Oh? Is your power special?" Little Gu Yan looked at Mephisto, and showed a little interest, as if he was bewitched by Mephisto.
"I am the supreme lord of hell. If you sign a contract with me and gain my power, you will be invincible on earth, fulfill your obsession, and judge everyone you want to judge..." Mephisto's majestic voice sounded, making the Joker look a little confused, staring at Mephisto's performance in a daze.
"This demon? More powerful than the devil? Much more powerful than Little Yinka? Judge everyone I want to judge? Judge? Isn't this what the little bat has always been unwilling to do?" The Joker's thoughts were a little scattered at this time, and he thought of Batman again.
Batman guards Gotham in the dark, but he will not kill those who commit crimes on the spot. He will only arrest them and let the law lock them up for trial. He basically will not judge them privately and convict people...
At this time, the ability of judgment mentioned by Mephisto attracted the attention of the Joker. He even wondered whether Mephisto's ability of judgment could judge Batman. If so, it would be very interesting, because Batman is also violating the so-called law!
"So, what will I pay?" After coming to his senses, the Joker looked at Mephisto and asked softly.
"Sign a contract with me, and I will give you enough power to fulfill your obsession, but after death, your soul belongs to me!" Mephisto condensed a contract in front of him and floated towards the Joker and said.
The contract was densely recorded with a lot of content, and even Mephisto's real name was signed on it, which shows how confident Mephisto was that the Joker would sign the contract.
"After death?" The Joker saw the complex contract and keenly noticed the vagueness of the definition of the word death above.
After obtaining Mephisto's power, he is also an extraordinary person. This supreme lord of hell must be more powerful than the devil. After obtaining this power, will the person who signs the contract really die? Or is it really that easy to die?
The clown thinks that it may not be that simple. After all, the other party is the lord of hell, a demon. Are there any good people among demons? Are there any demons that will not cheat people?
Even Yin Ka, who is as simple as a little white rabbit in the eyes of the clown, is also a demon who bewitches people's hearts. How can there be real good people in this race?
"How is it? Are you satisfied?" Seeing that the clown fell into silence after reading the contract, and did not even touch the contract, Mephisto's face did not change, and looked at the clown and asked softly.
"Not very satisfied, you see, you just gave me power, but you did not guarantee that you can definitely help me complete my obsession. If I can't complete my obsession, wouldn't it be a waste to sign the contract?" The clown looked at Mephisto and spread his hands and asked with a smile.
"The power I give you will definitely help you complete your obsession..." Mephisto said confidently.
"What if I want to reverse time and space?" The Joker raised his lips slightly, interrupting Mephisto and saying, "What if I want to travel to the future? What if I want to create a world without order and in chaos?"
"..." This was the first time that Mephisto was interrupted when signing a contract with someone else, especially what the Joker said next, which made Mephisto fall into silence.
"You want to reverse time and space, or travel to the future, it's not impossible, but the price you pay is not enough. As for creating a world without order and in chaos, you don't need to create it at all, because hell is such a place. As long as you sign a contract with me, you can go to hell after you die..." However, Mephisto has seen all kinds of storms, he quickly came to his senses, looked at the Joker and said calmly.
"So, what is the definition of death? If you kill me after I sign the contract, or use some trick to kill me, then I will sell my soul to you for nothing?" After hearing what Mephisto said, the clown did not believe it, but watched Mephisto start to discuss the conditions. The clown would definitely not sign such a contract.
"How is it possible? I am the most honest lord of hell. Would I do such a thing?" Mephisto denied it immediately. As the lord of hell who likes to sign contracts the most, Mephisto is most reluctant to be said to have problems with integrity, although he does have problems.
"Since you are so insincere, let's meet again next time!" The clown waved his hand, pretended to stand up, then stopped, looked around, and said to Mephisto with a smile, "Or are you going to force me to kill me?"
"You don't have to anger me. Since I chose you, I will not force you..." Mephisto looked at the clown deeply and said with a smile, "Since you said there is a problem with my contract, we can discuss and modify it. How do you plan to modify it?"
"It's very simple. You came for my soul, so my price is naturally my soul, but it must not be as simple as giving you the soul directly after death..." The clown shrugged and said softly to Mephisto.
"Your contribution is to help me fulfill my obsession. Then when I die after fulfilling my obsession, I will give my soul to you. How about it?"
"Fulfill your obsession and die?" Mephisto frowned, looked at the Joker deeply and asked, "What if you don't fulfill your obsession? And what is your obsession?"
"My obsession is very simple, to defeat the little bat and let him die in my plan, or let the angry little bat kill me..." A trace of madness flashed in the Joker's eyes, and this madness made Mephisto look sideways, "But, the little bat violated our agreement and began to use external aid, so I have to eliminate his external aid and let him transform into the lonely knight in the dark again, fight him fairly and defeat him!"
Feeling the madness of the Joker, Mephisto understood that this was indeed the Joker's deep obsession, but Mephisto also found that the Joker's spirit was probably a little abnormal. He looked at the Joker carefully. This obsession was indeed the deepest obsession Mephisto had seen in his long years. Thinking about it this way, there should be no problem.
"Buzz!" With a sound, Mephisto's mind moved when he thought of this, and the content of the contract began to change constantly. It was modified to Mephisto giving the Joker power to help the Joker complete his obsession. The Joker died after completing his obsession, and his soul belonged to Mephisto. As for when the Joker died after completing his obsession, it depends on Mephisto's intention.
If the Joker died in the hands of the little bat he mentioned, it would be fine. If he didn't die, then Mephisto wouldn't mind sending the Joker off. Besides, who said that the Joker would not be affected by Mephisto after signing the contract?
There is no problem in the contract, but it does not mean that there is no problem with the power Mephisto gave to the Joker!
"Not bad, this contract is still okay... huh?" The Joker took the contract with satisfaction, but found that his finger was cut while he was talking. The Joker had expected this. He picked up the contract after he was sure that there was no problem with the content of the contract. Anyway, the contract was going to be signed, and it was the same whether the finger was cut or not.
As a drop of the clown's blood merged into the contract, the contract instantly emitted a ray of light and merged into the clown's body. Correspondingly, a powerful force began to awaken in the clown's body.
"You'd better prepare a car for yourself, because those who sign a contract with me will be transformed into a ghost rider..." Mephisto's mouth corners slightly raised, looking at the clown and smiling, "Oh, by the way, before you complete your obsession, you need to do something for me first!"
"Huh!" As soon as Mephisto's voice fell, the clown's head instantly turned into a flaming skull, and his body also turned into a skull burning with flames.
"What if I don't help you do it?" However, at this moment, the flames burning on the clown stopped, followed by the clown's faint mockery.
"Hmm?" Mephisto's eyes couldn't help but condense. Under his gaze, the clown's flaming skull changed a little. His flesh and blood grew back, still the familiar clown, but the clown's hair turned into flames and floated in the wind.
"How could it be?" Mephisto had never expected this change, because he had never seen his knight become like this.
"You haven't answered me yet. What will happen to you if I don't help you?" The clown touched his face. The flames burned on the clown's face, but it did not cause any injuries. The clown looked at Mephisto smiled faintly and said, "I can feel that the contract does not restrict me and forces me to do things for you. There is such a consciousness in this power, but it doesn't seem to be able to stop me. The power you gave me doesn’t seem to come entirely from you, does it?”
"Don't forget, after you die, your soul will be under my control..." Mephisto's face was as dark as water. He found that the means contained in his power could not have any impact on the clown's consciousness. He took a deep breath, looked at the clown and said in a deep voice.
"Then let's wait until my obsession is completed and I die! I'm afraid that your welcome to me won't be warm enough! But now, go back to hell!" A wave of terror suddenly spewed out of the clown's mouth. The flames instantly covered Mephisto's body.
Even Mephisto didn't expect that the clown would take action so decisively. His body was instantly enveloped by the flames and turned into a drop of blood. In the flames, the blood seemed to have a tendency to evaporate.
"I will wait for you!" But at the next moment, a powerful force was released from the blood, as if it was trying to struggle out of the flames, but halfway through the struggle, the blood gave up in an instant and was completely consumed by the flames. Evaporate completely.
"Huh? Gave up? Why is that?" The next moment, the flame in the clown's mouth disappeared, and there was a faint spark flashing in the air, but it disappeared instantly, but the clown was keenly aware of the spark. "Were you scared away? This world is really interesting! But what's even more interesting is my current ability..."
The clown looked at the flames on his body, his eyes flickered slightly and said, "When I die after completing my obsession, my soul will belong to you? Haha! Do you think this power can really help me complete my obsession?" Want it? My obsession is not that easy to eliminate! Besides, who said I only have one obsession?"
"However, compared to these, what I want to know more now is whether the little bat will be judged by me..."
