Chapter 195 The First Soul

After hearing Roger's answer, Gwen burst out laughing, revealing a charming smile.

Roger didn't go to see Gwen, and drove the car seriously, as if he didn't hear it at all.

"You've changed, a little bit back to the way you were before!"

Gwen said in a nostalgic tone.

What she said before was of course not the time when Roger traveled to this world, but when Roger and her were still lovers.

"is it?"

Roger answered nonchalantly.

Of course he knew that something was wrong with his current state, but he had no intention of telling Gwen the whole story.

Although his relationship with Gwen has eased a lot now, it is still not to the point where he needs to confess everything.

Don't say that Gwen has not reached that point, even Carter has not reached that point.

"of course."

Gwen felt that Roger was hiding something, but she didn't want to pursue it further.

After becoming the person in charge of the S.H.I.E.L.D. sub-base, she has matured a lot, knowing what to ask and what not to ask.

Although the road to the movie theater was still a bit congested, it was much better than before.

More importantly, Gwen, who was sitting in the co-pilot, would take the initiative to stir up topics from time to time to pass the boring time of traffic jams.

After driving for more than half an hour, Roger finally drove to the movie theater that Sato had set.

"Here, get out of the car!"

After speaking, Roger got out of the car first.

Looking at the "Closed Today" sign hanging on the gate of the cinema, Gwen looked at Roger suspiciously, waiting for Roger's explanation.

Roger didn't say anything, came to the gate, pushed it open and walked in.

After seeing Roger enter the movie theater, Gwen realized something and followed Roger into it.

Although there is a sign saying today is closed at the entrance of the cinema, there are still people working in the cinema.

Sato just booked the movie theater for tonight instead of letting the movie theater be on holiday.

When Roger and Gwen entered the cinema, a middle-aged man in a suit soon came to them and said slowly: "Mr. Wayne, this place has been arranged according to your instructions, you want to see What movie, just tell me."

The middle-aged man standing in front of him is the manager of a movie theater.

Although it was his first time seeing Roger and Gwen, he was no stranger to Roger and Gwen.

Anyone who has lived in New York a few years ago will basically be familiar with Roger and Gwen.

Roger nodded to the cinema manager, and then asked Gwen, "Which one do you want to see?"

Although it had been expected before, Gwen still had a feeling that it was too exaggerated after seeing Roger really packed up the entire movie theater.

However, considering Roger's previous behavior, it is not a particularly outrageous move to rent out a movie theater.

After turning around to look at the movies that are currently being released, Gwen randomly chose an action movie with a good reputation.

When Gwen chose tonight's movie, the cinema manager quickly arranged everything else.

This is an action movie about male and female agents belonging to two different countries working together to stop terrorist plots.

Although there is nothing new in the subject matter, the filming is not bad.

The male lead is handsome, the female lead is beautiful, and the action scenes and special effects scenes are also done very well.

Obviously, this is a very pure Hollywood popcorn movie.

Not much depth, but good for passing the time.

During the viewing process, Roger and Gwen exchanged their views from time to time.

There were only the two of them in the entire auditorium, and they didn't need to worry about disturbing others.

However, unlike ordinary couples watching movies, the two of them talked about the fighting scenes in the movie and the action strategies of the hero and heroine in a tacit understanding.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the fighting scene is very exciting, but in the eyes of the two of them, it can be said to be full of flaws.

Especially after seeing the handsome male lead single-handedly deal with a terrorist operation team, Gwen shook her head in disdain.

The movements are too rusty, and you can tell it's a show at a glance!

This is the evaluation given by Gwen.

Regarding Gwen's evaluation, Roger nodded in agreement.

For superpowers with extraordinary physiques like them, watching ordinary people fight, there will be a feeling of watching children fight.

This feeling will be more obvious after you put yourself in it.

As for the special effects scenes that will make ordinary audiences hooked, in their opinion, they are no different from eating and drinking in daily life.

Both Roger and Gwen are people who have experienced really big scenes.

In comparison, those thrilling scenes in the movie are nothing at all.

When they finished watching this movie with good reputation, both of them showed a helpless expression.

After leaving the cinema, Roger drove Gwen to the restaurant.

Compared with the French restaurant last night, the restaurant tonight is much more ordinary.

But for some reason, they all ate more satisfactorily.

After dinner, just as Roger was about to send Gwen back, Gwen suddenly said, "You don't know where I live, do you want to sit with me?"

I don't know if it's because of the red wine at dinner, Gwen's cheeks are a little flushed now.

"sure!"

Roger is not a straight man without emotional experience, he can think of what Gwen is implying with his toes.

Although he only came here with the purpose of completing the mission at first, he wouldn't mind if something happened to Gwen.

No matter how you calculate this kind of thing, he will not be the one who suffers.

The apartment Gwen lives in now is in Queens, not too far away.

After arriving downstairs in Gwen's apartment, he first sensed the surrounding environment with a domineering sense of knowledge, and then followed Gwen back to the apartment.

He wasn't worried that Gwen or S.H.I.E.L.D. would have any bad intentions, just to see if there was anything around him that needed attention.

For example, will there be superpowers hidden around?

New York has always been a peaceful city, and there are far more superpowers hidden here than in other places.

Not only superpowers like New York, but even those alien visitors like to regard New York as their first stop on Earth.

Gwen's apartment is not too big, it has two bedrooms and one living room, and it is very tidy.

After going straight to the living room and sitting down, he used the ability of the human fruit devil form to summon the contract signed by Gwen.

When he was still in the movie theater, he received a notification from the system, reminding him that he had completed 1/2 of the task.

The parchment contract in his hand didn't look any different from when it was just signed last night.

However, when he concentrated on sensing the parchment contract, he quickly discovered the difference.

In his perception, two finger-thick chains gushed out of the contract, connecting them to him and Gwen respectively.

This invisible and intangible chain exudes a faint, dark red light like magma.

In addition, I don't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that there was a faint sulfur smell on the chain.

"Mr. Devil, is there something wrong with your contract?"

After seeing him take out the contract, Gwen sat opposite him and asked slowly.

"No! The contract has been completed without any problems."

"Really? Then do you have my soul now?"

Gwen continued.

"In principle, yes." Roger glanced at Gwen and said lightly.

"Then can you show it? For example, take out my soul or something."

Although Gwen had a serious expression on his face.

But Roger could see that until now, she did not believe that the contract in Roger's hands was really valid.

After thinking for a few seconds, Roger said slowly, "If you want to see it, I can let you see it."

In fact, even if Gwen didn't mention it, he would try it secretly.

In any case, this was the first soul he had obtained as a devil.

Although he has some general soul manipulation information in his mind, he hasn't really tried it.

Under Gwen's expectant gaze, Roger took a deep breath, exerted the ability of the devil form of the fruit of everyone, and entered the form of the seducer without affecting the appearance.

Although Gwen didn't see anything, when Roger entered the form of the seducer, her spider sense gave a timely reminder.

However, like last night, Gwen simply ignored her spider sense.

As long as she stays near Roger, her spider sense will keep giving reminders.

This time the spider sense still didn't attract her attention.

After entering the seducer state, it becomes easier to use the power of the devil form.

With a thought, the parchment contract in Roger's hand disappeared.

At the same time, the invisible power of the devil came to Gwen in an instant.

When his devil power touched Gwen, Roger pointed his right hand at Gwen and hooked his fingers lightly.

Before Gwen could react, she experienced a strange feeling she had never experienced before.

In her perception, she seemed to break away from the shackles of gravity in an instant, and she floated lightly.

At this moment, she saw her body lying on the sofa.

This is real……

Until this moment, Gwen finally showed a look of surprise on his face, and stared at Roger with wide eyes.

Just as she was about to say something, Roger's voice came over.

"Feel the power of your soul, and then speak with the power of your soul."

After hearing Roger's reminder, Gwen's expression became much calmer, and he began to sense the power of his own soul.

After about a minute of adaptation, she finally said in the soul form: "Is what you said before true?"

"Yes, I warned you last night."

Looking at his body lying on the sofa, and then at his soul body, Gwen didn't know what to say for a moment.

After floating quietly like this for more than ten seconds, she began to try to return to her body.

However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't return to the body that perfectly matched her soul.

"What's going on here?" Gwen turned to look at Roger.

"Your soul is mine now, whether it can return to your body or not is up to me."

"If I don't agree, you can only watch."

Roger said calmly.

Although it sounds evil to manipulate other people's souls, it has to be said that this kind of complete control over other people's souls is quite cool.

"If my soul can't go back, what will my body do?"

Gwen asked a crucial question.

"To put it simply, it should be similar to a vegetable."

"The body is still normal, with breathing, heartbeat, and normal nervous reactions. The only problem is that I can't wake up."

Roger simply explained.

It is true that the body without the soul will become almost like a vegetable, but this is not the whole consequence.

A body without a soul is an ownerless thing, and any existence that can use the power of the soul can easily occupy this body.

This is what is often referred to as possession or soul possession.

Just when Gwen wanted to ask something, Roger stood up suddenly, showing an evil smile, and slowly came to Gwen's body.

Seeing Roger stretching out his right hand, Gwen in the soul state shouted: "What are you doing? No, stop!"

As Gwen yelled, Roger's right hand touched her cheek and squeezed it lightly.

"Now that I know I'm afraid, weren't you quite brave when you signed the contract?"

Roger raised his head and said to the floating Gwen.

Then, he withdrew his right hand and snapped his fingers lightly.

In the blink of an eye, Gwen's soul returned to the physical body and opened his eyes again.

"you……"

After the soul returned to the body, Gwen looked at Roger bitterly, and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

After looking at Roger like this for more than ten seconds, she said again: "Have you really become a devil?"

"No! I'm still human, at least I think so."

"As for this devil's power, it's just the power I just acquired not long ago."

Roger explained it briefly, in words that Gwen could understand.

"Is this why you want to get the souls of me and Natasha?" Gwen continued to ask.

"That's it!"

After answering Gwen's question, Roger sat back in his previous seat.

Gwen fell silent again, and now she really didn't know what to say.

An oppressive atmosphere of silence began to envelope the living room.

Looking at Gwen with his head down, squatting on the sofa with his legs crossed, Roger sighed helplessly.

Then, slowly said: "If I tell you, I want to take you back to Wakanda, would you like to?"

Gwen didn't answer him right away, she looked up at him intently, and it took more than ten seconds for her to give an answer.

"My soul is yours now, it doesn't matter if I agree or not."

"Of course there is a difference. If you don't want to, I won't force you. Although S.H.I.E.L.D. is not a good job, if you want to stay in S.H.I.E.L.D., I won't force you."

Roger didn't tell Gwen that, if nothing else, S.H.I.E.L.D. would become his personal property soon.

"I thought you had changed, but unexpectedly, you are still that idiot."

After speaking, Gwen picked up the pillow on the sofa and threw it at Roger.
