Shadow of the Beautiful World

Not all light rings are as gentle as the green light ring.

As far as Riven knew, the Red Lantern Ring of the Wrathful Legion represented a terrible fate.

Once she came a little later, once Laura answered the call of the red light, the result would be disastrous.

She and Merlin will most likely lose Laura forever...

The Red Lantern Corps, which is fighting top heroes outside the solar system, seems to be afraid of the raven blood.

In other words, it was Raven himself that those evil lantern gangs were afraid of.

They didn't show more dissatisfaction, but just like when they appeared, they withdrew the ring under the shining red beam of light, and left in despair.

Rui Wen also didn't care about the regrouped demons around her. She hugged her little sister in the sea of ​​corpses that had just been slaughtered.

She looked at the weak Laura with distress.

The little wolf girl grabbed Ruiwen's hand, and she said with difficulty:

You...shouldn't be here, here...you can't get out here...brother, brother gave you...job...

If brother knows that I gave up on you for work, he will never forgive me, silly girl. Like me, he would rather lose everything than lose you.

Raven gently stroked Laura's cheek, she looked at the weak smile on Laura's face, she said:

Why are you working so hard? Even without you, Johnny can break through here, it just takes more time...

because...

Facing Ruiwen's distress, Laura stretched her body in the arms of the eldest sister nostalgicly. She closed her eyes and said softly:

Because you are all working hard, I also want to help you...I also want to help brother. I am not your burden, I am not...

Fool.

Rui Wen stretched out her hand and flicked the little girl's forehead hard, she said:

No one treats you as a burden.

Miss Raven held the unconscious little sister and stood up. She looked at the terrified demons around her and said:

Chop Suey! Get out of the way!

Devils, look at me, I look at you, despite the orders of Maharaja Mephisto, in the end, no one dared to challenge the arrogant queen head-on.

Under Ruiwen's gaze, those hell creatures who were killed by Laura obediently gave way.

They watched Riven hug Laura and disappear into the position in front of Mephisto Castle.

Entering Mephisto Hell, Ruiwen, who was also trapped here, did not choose to help Johnny. She knew that her brother gave Johnny something, and the grudge between Ghost Rider and Mephisto was the result of the children of hell. Everyone knows.

That guy probably doesn't need help.

Everyone has a role to play in this war, the end is coming, and this is Johnny's way.

He had to go the last mile by himself.

———————————

Johnny storms Mephisto Castle.

The motorcycle that had carried him here was dismantled during the final encounter outside the castle, and Ghost Rider lost his vehicle, but it wasn't a big deal.

The demonized locomotive can be repaired by itself, and Johnny can wait for the locomotive to be repaired, but now that every second counts, he doesn't have so much time to waste.

Johnny suppressed the flame, and calmed Zatanos, who had sensed the existence of the body in his body.

But that vengeful spirit could not be quieted at all.

It cries out in Johnny's soul:

Go underground first, my body is trapped there, get back my remaining power, Johnny Blazer! You know, Mephisto can't let his base camp be so empty!

What you're trying to do is tough, and you're going to need my strength, trust me!

At this time? No! I refuse.

Johnny did not choose to accept Zatanos's proposal. Although the temptation of power is close at hand, it is undoubtedly a waste of time to go underground to fight the elite devils who guard Zatanos' body.

And the most important problem is that, with great difficulty, Johnny used the gadget made of the paving bricks of heaven to co-exist himself and a part of the spirit of revenge in his body to a perfect balance.

In this form, he can exert the greatest destructive power while taking the initiative.

Once Zatanos's Vengeful Spirit body is fully restored, the perfect balance will be disturbed.

Johnny will indeed become stronger, even surpassing the Father, but the price is that Zatanos will probably take the opportunity to seize control of Johnny's body.

This vengeful spirit is an out-and-out lunatic, who knows what it will do at this critical moment?

Be quiet!

Johnny walked towards the center of the huge castle of Mephisto, and said to Zatanos:

I'll make you whole, but not now, there are more important things to do.

You're crazy!

The spirit of vengeance roared inside Johnny, it shouted:

Mephisto must have laid a trap ahead, a trap specially reserved for you or other children of hell. It is sure to trap you and even kill you! No one knows that devil better than me!

Without my power, you can't break through that trap at all! You are just sending yourself to death! You will destroy Merlin's grand plan! You will become a sinner for the children of hell!

Don't be stubborn, Johnny! Go underground first... Strength is the most important thing!

Yeah?

Johnny snorted, and a strange thought came to his mind. In this eerie and quiet corridor of the castle, he said to the spirit of revenge in his body:

Why do I feel that going underground first will fall into Mephisto's tricks? That's the trap!

That old devil is sure that you will desperately pursue self-integration. Once I do what you want, at the moment you restore your integrity, maybe I will lose control...

You can vent your anger freely, but my work has failed.

Johnny whispered:

We have lived together for so many years, do you think I still don't know what you are? Shut up!

As he spoke, Johnny passed a door, and a spiral staircase appeared in front of his eyes. Beside the staircase, the old devil Mephisto put up a sign very intimately.

There was a malicious word written on it.

Children of hell, please go this way, my throne is at the end, I have prepared a grand banquet for you, have fun~

look!

Zatanos yelled again.

it yells:

Mephisto is sure that you will come over, don't be stubborn, Johnny, with your current appearance, you can only die if you rush in!

Johnny simply pretended he didn't hear it.

He ignored the urge of the spirit of revenge at all, but strode up the spiral staircase. After walking for a few minutes, the exit of this seemingly endless staircase finally appeared.

After lifting the luxurious red curtain, Johnny saw a golden hall.

The blazing hellfire rolled around the hall, the floor was covered with a strange carpet, and at the end of the circular hall, in front of Johnny, there was a golden chair.

That was Mephisto's throne, the control core of this hell, and Johnny's ultimate goal.

But Johnny's expression became serious at this moment.

In the center of the throne between him and the Maharaja, there are 3 round tables, and 5 people are seated at each round table.

The table is filled with food and wine from various worlds, and the guys sitting at the round table are dressed in leather shoes, male and female, all maintaining the posture of human beings.

Next to the hall, there is also an orchestra that can play automatically without musicians. It is a cheerful dance music.

It's really like a banquet.

The moment Johnny appeared at the edge of the hall, the guys who were enjoying the banquet stopped talking with each other, and 15 pairs of eyes fell on Johnny.

Immediately afterwards, those 15 pairs of eyes all ignited a flame that Johnny was very familiar with.

The flesh and blood were burning, and the disgusting smell instantly dispelled the atmosphere of the banquet.

Under Johnny's gaze, the 15 guys stood up in unison, the flames of vengeance burning on their bodies, and they shaped completely different weapons.

There are swords, guns, whips, spirits like living vultures, sharp blades like daggers, and the most exaggerated thing is that there is a guy with a bazooka.

Ghost Rider...

Johnny pursed his lips and said softly:

A total of 15... How on earth did Mephisto collect so many vengeful spirits?

Hahahaha, this question is easy to answer.

The voice of Zatanos gloating in Johnny's heart sounded, and this crazy spirit of revenge said to his host:

You are not Mephisto's first knight. The old devil started playing knight tricks a long time ago. The birth of ghost knights in almost every era has something to do with Mephisto.

The Archangel Randekiel in heaven recovered most of the spirits of vengeance, but some of them fell into the hands of Mephisto.

Just like the story I told you before, no matter who falls into the hands of heaven or hell, the ending of the ghost riders is not very good.

The Vengeful Spirit paused and said to Johnny:

Look, you rejected my correct advice and sent yourself into a mortal situation. You are indeed very talented, Johnny. I would also like to help you in this battle, but I'm curious...

How do you deal with your predecessors from different eras?

Johnny didn't answer.

Before his eyes fell into hell because of Mephisto, the incomparably painful vengeful spirits were also silent, they gathered and dispersed, forming a circle, completely blocking Johnny's path to the throne of the Great King.

They held their own weapons in their hands. Obviously, they did not intend to resolve the disputes between the two parties in a peaceful manner.

Ghost Riders are undead.

This is the most troublesome battle.

Johnny knows this very well, once he and his predecessors go to war, they will fall into endless disputes, he will be dragged, and the blockade of Mephisto's hell will not be opened.

The longer the delay, the greater the probability that the children of hell will be wiped out.

Once all the sons of hell are attracted to Mephisto Hell, the battlefield without a leader in the outside world can easily be taken advantage of by the other two hell lords.

By that time, the good situation will be completely overturned.

He must end the fight as soon as possible.

Amid Zatanos' sarcasm, Johnny took a deep breath, put his left hand into his pocket, and held the golden dagger that looked like an ornament at his waist with his right hand.

Fortunately, Merlin was prepared.

Johnny said something softly.

Zatanos' laughter stopped abruptly.

As the evil spirit inside Johnny, it shares memory with Johnny.

It clearly remembered that Raven gave Johnny two different things back then, and the bracelet on his left wrist was used to curb the ferocity of the spirit of revenge, so that Johnny and Zatanos could achieve a perfect symbiosis.

And that dagger is said to be a weapon made by Heaven's Archangel Randekiel out of heaven's paving bricks.

That thing is not lethal to ordinary people at all, but it only has a special effect on ghost knights. It can strip the spirit of revenge from the bodies of the hosts.

You are alone! You have no chance of stabbing them!

Zatanos gritted his teeth and retorted:

At the moment of war, they will easily tear you apart like a pack of wolves hunting for food!

You're right.

Johnny shrugged his shoulders, and took out a small black bag from his pocket with his left hand. He shook his fingers, and held the phoenix fragment that emitted white light in the bag in his hand.

In the halo of the beating phoenix fragments, he said to the rebellious Zatanos in his body:

Aren't you curious why I don't take your power, and I'm full of confidence... It's very simple, I have other powers that I can use!

And it's much easier to use than you.

You trash!

Your Majesty T'Challa...if you can hear me, come and help me!

Through the mysterious connection of the phoenix fragments, Johnny's call passed through the obstacles of dimensions in an instant, and fell into the mind of the Black Panther Prince who was commanding the Wakanda Legion in Belial Hell.

These two guys merged into a powerful new entity in the last infinite folding time, although they were later separated by Doom using time magic.

But there is still a mysterious connection between the two.

In fact, not only them, but all heroes who have been folded have this kind of special perception. As long as the phoenix fragment reappears, they can be folded again.

This has been confirmed by Lightning Spider and Wan Liwang.

T'Challa didn't know what happened to Johnny, but the current king of Wakanda didn't hesitate too much.

He has already brought his own army to fight in hell, which proves that he has put all his chips on Merlin's side.

Now that the decision has been made, there is no need to hesitate any longer.

Eric! Shu Rui!

T'Challa turned around and threw the real gold scepter in his hand to his cousin, Prince of Wakanda, Eric, one of the children of Merlin's family. He shouted at Eric and Princess Shu Rui beside him. :

You take over command! Victory must be achieved!

After speaking, T'Challa responded to the call of his soul, and his figure suddenly disappeared in place amidst the flashing white halo.

And in Mephisto Hell, under the watchful eyes of 15 senior Ghost Riders from different eras.

Accompanied by a deep beast roar, Johnny Blazer, who had finished folding with T'Challa again, squeezed his fingers and walked out of the burning flames.

It is wearing a black leather jacket with a pattern of sun patterns on the neck, and it also has the unique animal teeth decoration of the black panther T'Challa.

Wrapped in flames is a black skull on top of its head, constantly laughing lowly, its hands are like torn magma, shining scorching light in the cracked lines.

Beside it, a fierce and burning black panther was also roaring towards the ghost riders.

The finger of the evil spirit black panther twirled, and in the flow of flames, it combined the golden short knife and the chain in his hand to form a special blade whip.

It held the blade whip in one hand, and while the golden blade whizzed and spun, it hooked its fingers at the knights in front of it with the other hand.

it says:

Come on! Everyone, let us... die in a more glorious way!
