Marvel: It Starts with a Spell

The Holy Lord's invisible dragon soul danced wildly in the air, but the next moment, an invisible door leading to the underworld appeared in the soul space. A chain with the breath of hell was clasped around his neck and dragged him in.

In a dim hell, Zhulan was standing quietly at the end of the chain...

While Mordo was rescuing Jackie Chan, Casillas swept his eyes full of hatred over everyone present at the moment the portal collapsed.

And above the crowd, a bald man in a golden robe stood in the wind and snow, hiding his figure, overlooking everything.

Far away in Nevada, USA, Li Huang knew nothing about all this and was checking his own system.

"System repair completed..."

That's right, he had collected enough redemption points to repair the system and fixed it. Now at least he wouldn't have to look at the crooked system screen anymore.

Moreover, the intelligence of this thing has been greatly improved. You no longer need to rely on keywords to search, but can do intelligent filtering.

Li Huang has returned to the United States from Skull Island. The system has just been repaired, and he wants to try out the current system.

Opening the system panel, a line of subtitles appeared in front of him.

"Host, the Myriad Worlds Exchange System allows you to use exchange points to exchange for anything you can think of. There is nothing you cannot get, except what you cannot think of.

Congratulations to the host for successfully repairing the system. The system intelligence has been greatly improved."

"System, help me find an item that can absorb the magic power of the talisman."

"Searching for you... The following items have been found."

[Dark Book] The Dark Book is also known as the Book of Death, the Book of Sin, and the Scroll of Sithon.

Billions of years ago, Xisong, one of the ancient gods who had fallen into the devil, was forced to exile to other dimensions to avoid being devoured by the God Eater. Before escaping, Xisong wrote all his evil deeds and spells on indestructible parchment, which was called the Xisong Scroll. Later, these parchments were revised into a book and called the Dark Book. Before Xisong's exile, he left the Dark Book on Earth as a channel for him to influence the Earth and release energy.

Li Huang's eyes lit up. This is the thing!

However, I am still a few hundred points short of this price, and it will take some time to exchange it.

However, now that he had a channel to solve the problem, Li Huang was naturally in a good mood. However, he did not know yet that a conspiracy against him was unfolding.

In the hell filled with the smell of sulfur, above a black and red cloud layer, between the floating stone islands, seven figures with terrifying auras gathered together, looking at the Holy Lord's spirit body in the center, which was locked by an iron chain with evil patterns engraved on it. No one knew how long the chain was, but it was known that it was deeply embedded in the cloud layer below.

"Holy Lord, my dear brother, you have finally returned to 'home'." Zhu Lan's scarlet eyes were full of mockery, and his tone was cold and eerie.

"Yes, Holy Lord, if you are not busy ruling your kingdom on earth, how come you have time to come back and sit down?" The sky demon Ximu passed by the Holy Lord's soul, leaving behind a cold sneer.

“Brothers and sisters, this time I will definitely…” The chains on the Holy Lord’s body made a noise.

"Shut up! Holy Lord, your only future now is to stay here and hang out with us!" The giant demon Dikui, whose body was red earth and had two horns on his head, interrupted the Holy Lord's sweet words, and huge pumice stones gathered under his feet.

"Endure endless pain." The toad-like demon Xiaofeng landed on the giant flying stone beside the Holy Lord's soul. The wind blade brushed past the Holy Lord's soul and the surrounding pumice. In a piece of stone powder, the Holy Lord's soul, which was locked by iron chains, twisted, and it seemed that the soul was a little unstable due to the wind.

"This is the consequence of your betrayal, Holy Lord, you go and rule the kingdom on earth..." The voice of Zhu Lan, who was wearing a crimson robe, seemed quite calm, but the purple-black energy around him made the Holy Lord's soul feel cold.

"And we, in this barren hell, are waiting for the end of the world!" Basha, dressed in aqua blue, spoke with hatred in her tone. Her tail passed through the Holy Lord's soul, leaving a clear water mark.

“If Zhulan hadn’t found a solution, our strength and wisdom would have been completely wiped out by hell, and we would have been trapped to death in this barren place.” Ximu soared into the sky, and a black and red cloud gathered around him.

"You never planned to save us!" The huge green meat mountain Bogang twisted his body and looked at the Holy Lord. His words hit the nail on the head, revealing the Holy Lord's thoughts.

"The operation to rescue you is still being planned, but I am trapped in the statue--" The Holy Lord did not admit what Bo Gang said. Of course he would not admit it, otherwise these so-called "brothers and sisters" would surely grind him to ashes. No, now they would kill him.

"Boom!" A loud thunder exploded beside the Holy Lord's soul. The burly Zhong Su had orange and yellow lightning flashing in his hands, and electric snakes coiled around his body.

"You want to dominate the world, you selfish guy!"

A bolt of lightning pierced the Holy Lord's soul, causing him to tumble in the air in pain, like a loach exposed to the sun.

"Wait, I can save you!" When the Holy Lord saw Zhongsu raising his hand, orange-yellow flashes condensed in his hand again. He shouted hurriedly. Zhongsu was a ruthless guy. Under the confinement of the chains, he had nowhere to hide.

"Don't play tricks on us. We know that the gates of hell can only be opened from the outside." Basha's hands were surrounded by aqua blue, and she stared at the Holy Lord with resentful eyes.

"Yes, on the human side." Di Kui added.

"Everyone, to be honest, if you are willing, then I, who am in front of you, can easily go out and control any human I want to control, and lift the sacred spell that binds you." The Holy Lord vowed, and his sincerity made several good-tempered demons start to think about it. Zhu Lan, on the other hand, had a cold look on his face, and a smile that made the Holy Lord shudder.

Did he really want to rescue these brothers and sisters? Of course not. In fact, he just wanted to get out of this place. When he returned to the human world, he would immediately find a way to remove the chains on his body, and then use magic to reshape his body and live freely in the human world. As for the other demons? Just wait for death here.

"Don't even think about using it again..."

Basha was about to say something when she was interrupted by Zhu Lan.

"Well, then tell me about your plan, my dear brother." Zhu Lan's crimson robe moved without wind. He came to the side of the Holy Lord and stared into his eyes.

"Well, it's like this. My martyrdom will leave a vacancy for a powerful demon, and that is you, my dear brothers and sisters. I will open your door and let you out." The Holy Lord gave the reason he had made up on the spot.

"Okay, Holy Lord, we believe in you and believe that you have the ability to rescue us." Zhu Lan's voice was not loud, but all the demons could hear it clearly.

The Holy Lord was stunned. He didn't expect that he could gain Zhu Lan's trust so easily.

Basha wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say it.

"Zhu Lan, I will bring you good news--" The Holy Lord twisted his soul: "What about this chain?"

Zhulan winked at the demons around him, and the next moment, the Holy Lord was hit by the spells of his brothers and sisters at the same time.

"What are you doing!?"

"Holy Lord, we all know your tricks. We must take more stringent measures." Ximu grinned as he stood on a floating island.

"Our spell will trap you in the body of a human of your choice until you rescue us." Basha stood with her arms folded.

The Holy Lord is notorious for not keeping his word, and all the demons are well aware of this. They put up this layer of insurance just to prevent the Holy Lord from turning against them immediately after he leaves.

"This is to ensure that we can find you." Xiao Feng breathed behind the Holy Lord.

"If necessary, we will send you back to eternal pain." Zhu Lan's tone was calm.

"I accept your conditions. I will carefully select my host and serve you well. The most suitable human for this job is the guy who betrayed me - Li Huang!"

"We should thank him. It was because he defeated you that we have the opportunity to drag you back to hell." Zhu Lan's slender tongue moved slowly in the air.

He thought of the summoning door that had been opened not long ago.

"Perhaps it was the human who carried the scent of the Holy Lord and opened the gate of summons."

"Alright, Holy Lord, remember your mission and go..."

……

Mumbai, India.

Under the scorching sunlight, a man in a black robe walked through the chaotic and noisy slums, where the smell of sourness and corruption spread and countless houses were stacked together.

The stray dogs were strolling around the streets but were unwilling to hang around in the slums. It seemed that even they disliked these disgusting slums.

The white-haired old man drew his arms, which were hot from the sun, back into the shade, causing the flies perched on his hands to fly away. The shade was made up of two large cardboard boxes supported by wood. This was the old man's "home"; two dark and thin boys, with paper scraps all over their bodies and carrying shredded paper to be sent to the waste paper recycling station in their hands, could not help but glance sideways as they walked past the old man's "home". To them, the cardboard box might be just some more rotten paste in their rice bowls; the thin middle-aged man, carrying a heavy snakeskin bag on his back, moved with difficulty to let the two children move.

This is Dharavi slum, the largest slum in India. It is a dark shack with an average living area of ​​only 2-3 square meters per person. There is one toilet for more than 1400 people. Flies and rats are everywhere, and various infectious diseases are frequent.

Many people noticed the tall and strong man in black robe just from the back, but it was not worth paying attention to. Here, drugs, sex, and violence are always the main themes. Drug dealers dressed like this may appear in any corner of the slums.

The man in black robe walked through the slums along the crooked and dirty path. Before his eyes was a tall and luxurious building. He took a look and murmured, "It's much more magical than the future..."

Inside this 173-meter-high, 27-story building, in the pure white prayer room, a group of guys wearing wizard robes are setting up the prayer room.

This prayer room of several hundred square meters is spotlessly white from the ceiling to the floor. Decorations made of silver and white jade add a touch of wealth to the room. Brand is staring at the white jade and diamonds on the chandelier in a daze, as if recalling the past.

"Lord Brand, one person is missing." The wizard behind him interrupted his thoughts.

"Who's missing?" Brand looked away.

"The owner of this building, Mukesh Ambani."

"Search the entire building and tell the people on the rooftop and in the basement to be careful and not let him escape. The thing Lord Casillas is looking for may be in his hands." Brand put away his emotions and gave the order calmly.

"Is this the guy you're looking for?"

A man in a black robe stepped into the pure white prayer room, leaving footprints stained with dirty black mud on the originally flawless floor. In his hand was a fat, middle-aged bald man with a big belly and an almost disappearing neck.

"Who are you?" Brand was shocked. He had not even noticed the man in black robe.

"Let Casillas come out and talk to me. I want to see him directly and tell him that it's related to the Holy Lord."

The black-robed man pulled down his robe, revealing a face covered with green scales...
