Chapter 2045

"Let's make a deal! Mephisto." Seeing that the other party was not going to play, the sleep demon could only make the worst choice.

Mephisto's favorite thing to do is to make deals with people, because he will never lose.

Old Mephisto is the best trading partner in the entire universe, but also the worst trading partner.

Compared with using violence, Old Mephisto prefers to use lies and deals to achieve his goals. He is the least warlike dimension lord, but also the most difficult dimension lord. He can always use various means to achieve his goals.

If you make a deal with him, once the deal is reached, both parties must not regret it. He himself will not. He is an extremely trustworthy demon god. Once the deal is reached, he will complete the deal as agreed. Of course, this does not mean that this guy is a good person. On the contrary, if you make a deal with him, you must be careful not to be cheated by him.

Yes, although he is trustworthy, it does not mean that he will not do anything.

He does give people what they want, but at the same time, he wants more. Each of his contracts has traps and loopholes, but these traps and loopholes are unilaterally beneficial to him. However, you don't have to worry that he will take the benefits and not do anything.

This guy will definitely abide by the contract.

Well, it is a contract, and he will pay the corresponding price according to the words in the written contract. Sometimes the fallacy of a character may result in the opposite result from what the trader wants. But you cannot deny that this guy did abide by the contract.

That's why he is said to be the best trader, but also the worst trader.

The contract he made is cumbersome and rigorous. Sometimes, a contract is as thick as a dictionary, and the various clauses and supplementary clauses can make people's heads explode. At the same time, you have to be careful of seemingly insignificant errors or grammatical errors, and even the patterns on the contract should be carefully read, because there may be... no, there must be traps in those places.

Of course, most... the vast majority of people will not notice the traps in the contract at all. Because Lao Mo may be the best salesman in the world, he is proficient in all sales and fraud techniques. Have you seen the Wolf of Wall Street?

The protagonist in it can blow up junk stocks to the sky, so that people will place orders on the phone, and they don't even have time to understand the true situation of the stock.

Mephisto is more terrifying than that guy. This grandson often chooses a good time and then takes advantage of the situation. After a lot of rhetoric, many people sign the contract without understanding the situation.

Of course, most of the time, Mephisto is not very good at exploiting the transaction object. He will give the other party what they want, and then take what he should get in the contract when the time comes.

It's not that Mephisto is kind.

But often, what he pays is not worth mentioning in his eyes.

In a typical soul contract, the old Mephisto will use money, information, supernatural power, or other devil's services to exchange the soul of the mortal signatory. And even he will be surprised by this fact: so many mortals have sold their immortal essence at a very low price.

You know, he often only needs to pay some money to get a person's soul... Is there anything more cost-effective than this?

Money or anything that represents currency is worthless to Mephisto. You can get as much of that thing as you want, and you can get a lot of it without any effort. He only needs to use a little worthless so-called "wealth" to buy a soul.

Is it necessary for him to do those things?

After all, the cost of doing so is not as good as operating with integrity.

Of course, for special souls, it is different.

For example, in order to get the soul of Ghost Rider Johnny, Mephisto directly cured Johnny's adoptive father.

Johnny's adoptive father, Klaus Simpson, is a very famous motorcycle stunt star. He taught Johnny how to perform motorcycle stunts. Klaus hoped that this young man could eventually succeed him as a stunt star. After Johnny grew up healthily, Johnny also began to take over his adoptive father's business. He even started a relationship with his adoptive father's daughter. Everything was so beautiful. Unfortunately, Klaus Simpson suffered from rectal cancer, in the terminal stage.

Grief-stricken and confused, Johnny turned to occultism to seek a solution to his adoptive father's cancer. He finally studied a spell that was said to summon Satan's body.

Of course, there is no Satan in this world, only the devil Mephisto. Mephisto promised to cure Crouch's cancer in return for Johnny's promise to enslave his soul.

Then Crouch's cancer improved rapidly!

Three weeks later, Crouch, who seemed to have recovered from cancer, tried to set a world record by flying over 22 cars, but failed. Crouch died during the performance. Johnny was desperate after losing his adoptive father. After his adoptive father's body was taken away, Johnny immediately jumped on a motorcycle and flew over 22 cars to break the world record in one fell swoop, fulfilling his adoptive father's will and trying to give Crouch honor in memory of him.

But Johnny still had to be controlled by Mephisto, because Mephisto only promised Johnny to cure his adoptive father's cancer, but did not promise to guarantee that his adoptive father would not die!

Did Mephisto lie to him?

No.

After all, he fulfilled the agreement... As for whether it was true, no one knows.

This is Mephisto.

"Oh? Then come... let's sign a contract!"

This is a big deal!

It's not that Mephisto hasn't done business with other dimensional masters, but it's rare. There's no way, everyone is not a fool. Not many dimensional masters will play with Mephisto. Nine out of ten words of this guy are false. It's hard to talk to him, let alone do business with him.

Anyone who does business with him is cheated.

So no one will do business with him in the future.

Of course, the sleep demon is not given for nothing. The two began to negotiate the details of the contract and the terms of the transaction for a long time...

Although it was difficult, Mephisto enjoyed it. Many times, he signed a contract with others, not because the other party could really bring him much benefit, but because he simply enjoyed the feeling... The more difficult the deal is, the more enjoyable it is for him. Of course, if the person who deceived has a higher status, he will also enjoy it.

...

The affairs of the dimensional master are too far away from the earth.

The earth has its own troubles.

When the New York Temple exploded, countless mages who could get away rushed to New York as soon as possible.

So the people of New York saw so many mages appear in front of them for the first time.

New Yorkers are not country bumpkins. They have seen and experienced everything. They are not surprised by any monsters. Even if God comes, they will just take out their phones and tweet. But mages...

The last time mages appeared in large numbers was during the first Titan Rebellion.

Two MUTOs met in San Francisco and fought with King Kong. In the end, half of San Francisco was destroyed.

At that time, the mages went out collectively and directly used the mirror space to transfer the entire city's people to the mirror space. As a result, although San Francisco was severely destroyed, not many people died.

So San Francisco is now also called the City of Mages. Now the metaphysical wind is very popular there. Everyone is grateful to the mages in yellow monk robes. Of course, there are many people who use this as an excuse to cheat.

But people in another city are unhappy with mages, and even resentful.

That is Miami.

The second Titan Rebellion, when Ghidorah was born and awakened all the sleeping Titans, they finally started a melee in Miami and completely destroyed Miami. At least millions of people died and many more were missing.

Originally, the people of Miami should hate Titans more.

But this thing still needs to be compared.

When the MUTOs arrived in San Francisco, the mages took action and saved the people of San Francisco, but when Miami was in trouble with Titans... where were the mages!

Look at the casualties in San Francisco, and then look at Miami... they can't help but hate it.

This world is so unreasonable, people are not worried about the lack of wealth but the inequality.

Of course, this has no effect on New Yorkers... San Francisco? The countryside!

Miami? Oh, the girls are nice, and the beach is also very good.

San Francisco really has no sense of existence for New York, and generally speaking, no one will talk about this place specifically... Just like Shanghai people have always compared themselves with Beijing, and have no interest in other cities, which are all countryside. New York is more arrogant than Shanghai.

But Miami is different.

Miami is the most famous resort in the United States. It is the second largest city in Florida, the third largest financial center in the United States, and is known as the "Capital of the Americas". Miami, with its beautiful coastal scenery and warm climate, has become one of the most livable cities in the United States. In addition, it is also the center of illegal drug trade in the United States. It is a prosperous city with both beauty and crime.

Miami is an international metropolis integrating finance, commerce, media, entertainment, art and international trade. It is also the headquarters of many well-known companies, banks and TV stations. Miami is a melting pot of world culture. It is greatly influenced by the huge Latin American ethnic group and residents of Caribbean island countries. It has close relations with North America, South America, Central America and the Caribbean region. It is known as the "Capital of the Americas". It is one of the most densely populated cities in the United States, the largest metropolitan area in the southeastern United States, and the fourth largest metropolitan area in the United States. Miami has a subtropical climate, warm and humid all year round, rainy summer, often attacked by hurricanes, and relatively dry and rainless winter.

Miami Beach is a famous bathing beach in the United States. It is located in the beach city of Miami, where the sand is white and soft, the coastline is long, and the waves are small and flat. It is an excellent tourist resort. Every year, it attracts millions of tourists to enjoy the comfort brought by the beach, sunshine and sea water.

If many Americans travel on vacation and cannot go abroad, Miami is definitely their first choice.

The most famous beach in Miami is South Beach at the southern end of Miami Beach. This is the most dreamy leisure resort in Miami. The blue water, soft sand and unique style of Miami here will make you linger. Here, you can enjoy the sun and blend into the warm South Beach, or enjoy the pleasure and excitement of speedboats speeding on the sea. There are hundreds of bars, restaurants, nightclubs and various historic boutiques. The nightlife here is very rich, attracting many tourists.

In China, when it comes to places suitable for retirement, everyone may think of "Sanya".

In the United States, it is Miami.

The warm climate, pleasant environment and slow-paced life have become one of the most popular cities for American retirees to live in. It is even called "God's Waiting Room".

The warm and humid tropical climate makes this place a suitable place to travel all year round.

Miami is one of the most popular tourist cities in Florida, USA. It not only has charming beaches and rich nightlife, but also a rich and diverse food culture. Among them, the most characteristic Miami food is the "Cuban sandwich". It is composed of ingredients such as ham, Swiss cheese, roast pork, pickles and mustard. In addition, thanks to the excellent geographical advantages of being located in the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, Miami's seafood is also very rich and diverse. As a city deeply influenced by the large Latin American community, Miami's Latin American food restaurants are blooming everywhere. Among them, Mexican food, Brazilian barbecue and Argentine barbecue are particularly popular.

So New York has a slightly better impression of Miami, but that's it.

And now there is nothing here.

Only a huge obsidian vein remains...

Back to the original topic.

New Yorkers don't care about the large-scale appearance of mages in San Francisco, and they don't care much about their absence in Miami. What they care about is why the mages didn't come to New York.

You know, New York is the center of the universe... Really, many New Yorkers say so.

This is of course a teasing meaning, but more of a kind of confidence.

You should know that the large-scale appearance of mages is never a good thing, although they have only appeared once.

But it also foreshadows a great disaster.

The mages are not idle and they are very eager to show their faces.

Generally speaking, there is only one reason for the large-scale gathering of mages, that is, there is a big trouble there.

The mages have always been busy. In Miami, it was not that the mages did not want to help, but they were also very busy. The dimensional demon came again, and Gu Yi went to deal with it. Mages in other places also had their own things.

So... they missed it.

This is not that Kamar-Taj is indifferent, but that they must make a choice.

The death of people in a city is indeed regrettable, but for the sake of the entire earth, they have to give up. In fact, the entire Kamar-Taj rarely has free time. Most of the time, they are dealing with various troubles.

In Miami, the main force was fighting against the invasion of the other dimension. The remaining people were either rookies like Strange, or old, weak, and disabled. It would be useless to go there. They would also get themselves involved. So... they can only make the most rational choice.

Survival... is very difficult!

Humans can’t feel it, it’s just that someone is carrying the burden forward!
