Seeing Mr. Carter who had returned to his original appearance and was a little collapsed, Gu Zhongyan hurriedly said:

"All this is just my guess, but whether it is true or not, you have underestimated Mephisto's strength."

"I can't say that he can completely ignore the power of Saint Fangansa's contract, but for demons or strong men of this level, it is no longer possible to increase their strength with ordinary souls, artifacts or some kind of magic items. .”

Of course, if it's a BUG-level artifact like the Infinity Stones, the Heart of the Universe, or the Ultimate Eraser, then pretend he didn't say anything about it.

But having said that, there are not many existences of this level in the entire multiverse, and they have little reference significance.

Although Gu Zhongyan said that he was just guessing, as a person who lived for more than a century, how could Mr. Carter not know how true this guess was.

Carter was somewhat disheartened when he thought that his persistence for more than 100 years was just a show arranged by others.

Looking at the shovel on the black horse, Carter looked at Gu Zhongyan with complicated eyes.

"So, you know so much, and you really know the whereabouts of Saint Fangansa's contract?"

Gu Zhongyan said nothing, and silence represented his answer.

With a wry smile, Carter took off the shovel from the saddle and handed it to Gu Zhongyan.

"Here, take it. Whether this is really important or just a bait, I think there is no need for me to stay."

"The battle just now has consumed almost all of my strength. From now on, it is up to you young people to protect the earth and protect mankind."

As he spoke, Carter looked at the cemetery behind him and smiled half melancholy and half relieved.

"As for me, it's time for me to enjoy the last peace of my life just like this cemetery."

After taking the shovel, Gu Zhongyan hesitated to speak. In the end, he said nothing more except "thank you".

"Okay, I'm tired, so I won't accompany you anymore, old man, let's go."

Seeing this, Carter got on his horse, gently pinched the horse's belly, and with the sound of horse hooves, he turned behind the church and disappeared in front of the three people.

Watching Carter go away, the atmosphere at the scene was a little heavy.

Su Yan saw this and said quickly: "Brother Gu, what should we do now? We have got the things, do you want to go home?"

Hearing this, Gu Zhongyan withdrew his gaze, broke off the shovel in his hand, took out the St. Fangansa Contract hidden in the handle of the shovel, and shook his head.

"No, it's not time yet. This contract can only work on the site of St. Fangansa Village. We still have to go to St. Fangansa Village."

"But before that." Gu Zhongyan suddenly looked at Johnny, "Mr. Brace, what are you going to do next?"

"What?" Johnny was stunned and looked at Gu Zhongyan in confusion.

Gu Zhongyan said: "Perhaps you haven't sorted out your thoughts from the huge amount of information, but I must remind you that after you signed the contract with Mephisto and was injected with the spirit of revenge, you are no longer an ordinary person. "

"From now on, every night you will turn into a flaming skeleton, Mephisto's retinue, and his tool to absorb the power of the Spirit of Vengeance and plunder souls."

"Although you have awakened from the body of the Vengeful Spirit, you and I both know that Mephisto will not let you go easily. If he appears again, can you resist him?"

"So what do you mean?" Johnny looked at Gu Zhongyan thoughtfully.

Gu Chongyan smiled and said: "You signed a contract with Mephisto, and I also killed his men. Obviously, the two of us are now grasshoppers on the same rope."

"Since we have the same enemy, why don't we cooperate? The Spirit of Vengeance has great power, even surpassing Mephisto at its peak."

"Although after years of absorption and weakening, there is not much of this power left, but if it can be fully developed, at least it will be enough to compete with Mephisto outside of hell."

"You have this power, but you can't develop and use it. My magic can help you learn and control this power."

"If the two of us cooperate, even Mephisto can't do anything to us."

"So I hope that you can join my team. Together, we can fight against Mephisto and defend our world and the people we love. What do you think?"

"Your team?" Johnny glanced at Su Yan subconsciously and frowned, "Some kind of youth hero organization?"

Noticing Johnny's twitching eyes, Gu Zhongyan shook his head repeatedly.

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. Su Yan is one of our members, but there is only one as young as him."

"In New York, we established a team of heroes called the Defenders, dedicated to combating the beings in the dark that threaten the earth and the safety of civilians."

"For example, dark creatures such as demons and vampires. In the future, there may be aliens, werewolves, ambitious dark wizards, or the comeback of Mephisto."

"In short, we unite together and use our own power to secretly protect the world."

"Besides, we are not alone. Do you know S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

"This is a special agent organization under the supervision of the United Nations Security Council. The birth of Captain America was related to them. We also have a lot of cooperation with them, so we can be regarded as a semi-official existence."

"So, I sincerely invite you to join. If you are willing, you will become the strongest force in the Defenders Alliance."

Hearing this, Johnny shook his head in distress.

"I, I don't know, it's so sudden, first the devil, and then the superhero team, I feel like my brain is a little exhausted."

"I think I need to think about it carefully."

"Of course." Gu Zhongyan nodded, "No matter what you choose in the end, I respect your decision."

"But I still hope you can join us, even if it is for Roxanne. After all, if there is an emergency, it is difficult to guarantee that the people around you will not be affected when dealing with the problem alone."

When Gu Zhongyan mentioned Luo Shan, Johnny frowned, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

Gu Zhongyan continued as if he hadn't seen it: "Having a team can reduce some worries. It's better than acting alone."

"I have to go to St. Fangansa Village. When I come back, we will have a good chat. I hope I can get a satisfactory answer by then, OK?"

Johnny was a little touched when he heard the words, opened his mouth, and then nodded slightly, "OK, I will think about it carefully."
