Marvel Magic Event Book

The sudden noise in the nearby bushes made Salomon extremely alert. He pointed his long sword at that place, ready to release the power of the Sword of Victory at any time.Jones was also startled by such a sound, but after being frightened, he wagged his tail crazily.The rustling sounds in the bushes kept approaching, and Coulson pointed his pistol at the bushes.

"Agent Romanoff?" Coulson opened his eyes wide and looked at the person emerging from the bushes in surprise.But he reacted quickly. He turned on the safety of the pistol and put his finger on the trigger. "Who are you!"

"Me? I'm not a Romanov agent." Natasha emerged from the bushes and behaved a little abnormally. Her posture was far from that of a woman.She seemed to be startled by Coulson's loud question, but when she saw Salomon, she shouted, "Salomon, get away from that person, he is fake!"

Now there were two Natashas on the field, one lying on the ground, the other acting abnormally, and the Natasha who appeared next spoke was even more surprising.Salomon quickly stood aside, leaving Agent Coulson's back untouched.Regardless of whether Natasha is real or fake, the current scene is weird enough. Salomon doesn't know who is Nyarlathotep. The most important thing is to ensure his own safety first.

The stray dog ​​Jones was also very confused. He sniffed Natasha lying on the ground, then glanced at Natasha who emerged from the bushes, and couldn't help but let out a confused whimper.This must be another trick of Nyarlathotep. The current mystic is deeply involved in it, and he has successfully delayed Salomon.It seems that the reason why there are no monsters in the dark forest tonight is because Nyarlathotep prevents the monsters from ruining the good show he has prepared for Salomon.

"Jones, come to me." Salomon called the stray dog ​​to him. Now this dog was the only one he could trust.Jones quickly stood next to the Mystic. Like the Mystic, it also looked at the other three people on the field with vigilance, and gave a threatening growl to the other two standing, warning them not to get close.Coulson still pointed his pistol at Natasha, who appeared later, and never relaxed for a moment.

Salomon asked the second Natasha, "Who are you?"

"I am Phillip Coulson." She said, "I don't know why I appear here. I was here as soon as I woke up. Before that, I was clearly in the stone tower..."

"I am Phillip Coulson!" Agent Coulson did not remove his pistol, "This is a trick!"

Although the second Natasha's words were a bit strange, Salomon felt that there was still some credibility in them, because there was no secret method of inserting one person's soul into another person's body, and Nyarlathotep completely You can do this kind of thing.

The mystic mage narrowed his eyes.The current situation is very difficult to judge. If the second Natasha is telling the truth, then Colson's soul is in Natasha's body. Who is this person who uses Colson's body?Where is Natasha's soul?What is Natasha lying on the ground?

But if she lied, then the situation becomes simple and clear. The person lying on the ground is the real Natasha, the Coulson next to him is also real, and the second Natasha who appears is the monster. All of this It was all just a waste of Salomon's time.

The mystic quickly pointed his sword at Coulson, and Jones barked loudly at him.Salomon believed that Nyarlathotep, who was keen on deception and chaos, would be prepared where possible to make calculations and complicate the situation as much as possible so that the poor man trapped in the puzzle could not escape.

So Salomon chose the situation that seemed the most complicated.He was not wrong. Nyarlathotep indeed set up puzzles at every step. All the questions were like a tangled ball of wool played by a cat, but it was precisely because of his hobbies and Instinct made Salomon choose the most direct way to solve the problem - he acted as Alexander for a time and solved the Gordius Knot in the simplest way [Note 1].

Jones bared his teeth and let out a threatening growl as he prepared to pounce and bite. After seeing Salomon's reaction, Coulson also pointed his pistol at the mystic. "Congratulations, you have moved on to the next question." The evil god with Coulson's appearance shed his disguise and revealed his true form.It was a man covered in pitch black. He was wearing a black suit. His skin, teeth, eyes, and hair were all black. If it weren't for the bright moonlight, ordinary people would hardly be able to detect him. This was Nyarlathotep's Avatar, the Dark One, Lord of the Witches' Sabbat.

He smiled and said slowly, "I can give you some tips. Look at the man lying on the ground."

Salomon did not dare to let down his guard. He quickly glanced at Natasha lying on the ground.No, that's not Natasha, but Coulson, or rather, it's Coulson's body.Nyarlathotep did not use Colson's body, but Colson's appearance. After Natasha was attacked in the hotel, she failed to escape and was placed in the forest.Presumably the reason why there are no monsters tonight is because Nyarlathotep doesn't want those ghouls and gug giants to harm Natasha's body and destroy the puzzle he left for Salomon.

The Mystic took a step forward and raised his sword. Jones also tried to pounce on him and bite him, but he calmly stretched out a finger and stopped Salomon and Jones from moving. "Wait, don't be impatient, sweetheart." His tone was brisk, as if everything was under his control, "Aren't you curious where that woman's soul went? I've observed you, and I know you You care about your companions, otherwise you would not have led me into the forest. Wouldn’t you like to get that woman’s soul back, Salomon Damonet?”

"Calm down, Salomon." Coulson, whose soul was stuffed into another body, also tried to dissuade the mystic. "We must have other ways. Calm down, take a deep breath, calm down."

"No." Salomon sighed and made up his mind. Then, he showed a firm and cold-blooded attitude.He took a step forward again and waved the sword vigorously, "If it can kill you, these sacrifices are acceptable, including myself."

"Tsk, tsk, you are really cold-blooded." Nyarlathotep dodged the attack. He fired, but the bullet only passed through a silver mist. Salomon suddenly appeared behind him and aimed at him. Swing the weapon.Nyarlathotep hates using supernatural powers in human form unless he has to, and for this good show, he did not summon monsters, so now he can only dodge Salomon's sword and try to continue using Words challenged Salomon's sanity.But even though he dodged Salomon's sword, he didn't dodge the inconspicuous stray dog.

Nyarlathotep let out a cry of pain as Jones bit down on His calf, its teeth piercing the Dark One's skin. "You actually!" He waited for Jones, who refused to say anything, "You actually..."

The mystic mage wasted no time. He jumped forward suddenly and slashed downwards with the sword vowed to win.Nyarlathotep recited a mantra aloud [Note 2]. When the Sword of Oath of Victory slashed at him, although his skin and bones were not cut open, Salomon's power still made this The sword smashed his shoulder blade like a heavy hammer.Nyarlathotep fell forward and fell to the ground. He kept cursing loudly, but the object of his curse was not Salomon, but Jones.

"You stupid dog!" He yelled through gritted teeth, "I knew it, I knew it! I knew you would betray me!"

When Colson saw Salomon launching an attack, he picked up the rocks at his feet and rushed forward. But before he could take a few steps, he fell to his knees and coughed continuously, vomiting out a large amount of salty sea water.This is the magic of the Dark Man, Breath of the Abyss, which can fill the subject's lungs with sea water, but this is just a spell. The Dark Man's spell is not over. He opens his mouth and spits out a poisonous stench of steam. Salo Meng and Coulson, who had just vomited out seawater, could not get closer at all. They covered their mouths and noses and backed away one after another. They could only watch Jones and the Dark Man being wrapped in the steam.

However, in the steam, the curses of the dark man did not stop, and He was dragged out of the slowly rising steam ball.Salomon saw the man of darkness grabbing everything he could with both hands and struggling desperately, but Jones bit his calf and dragged him backwards, creating a drag on the ground covered with withered yellow leaves. Traces of Jones dragging Him to Salomon.

"You betrayed me!" The man of darkness just said this sentence repeatedly.When the Mystic Master saw the man of darkness being dragged out of the poisonous gas, he held the sword behind his back and pierced his skin, muscles and spine with force, nailing him to the ground.But Nyarlathotep didn't seem to care about this. Suddenly, his anger disappeared, and he burst into hysterical laughter.

"Yes, I enjoyed a good show, but I was the actor. It's really annoying, why am I not the incarnation watching the show?" He took a breath and buried his face in the fallen leaves, his voice It became dull, "No matter what, I am the winner, and it is right to think so. See you next time, Salomon Damonette, you are a good playmate."

"No, don't even think about it."
