Chapter 160 Temporary Seal
Chapter 160 Temporary Seal
Although the unfair contract between Johnny and Mephisto has been temporarily sealed by Doctor Strange, this is only a stopgap measure. At most, it prevents Mephisto from directly interfering with Ghost Rider and controlling his every move.
Basically, as long as Johnny's soul is still controlled by Mephisto, the curse will follow him like a shadow, clinging to him. Knowing this, Mephisto can remain calm even when faced with Ghost Rider's betrayal. Johnny is ultimately just a puppet in Mephisto's hands, and his life and death are all controlled by him.
Everything developed just as described in the play. The poor young boy Johnny, because of his young age and ignorance, sold himself to a scheming old nobleman in order to save his father, but was instead plotted against by the old nobleman. Not only did he fail to save his father, but he himself was imprisoned by the evil nobleman's bald evil ghost, and was violently bullied by him every night. He was almost on the verge of collapse, with no hope in life and unable to die.
Until the edge of the abyss of despair, a black-skinned priest surrounded by holy light appeared like a god and promised to help Johnny break free from the contract. How could Johnny not be excited?
"The monastery I belong to is ancient and has an incredible heritage, so I am sure I can lift your curse and redeem your soul. Johnny Blaze is not the first Ghost Rider, we are his former comrades, and we have also helped him." The black-skinned priest looked at Johnny with a solemn gaze and spoke earnestly.
"Interesting~" Luna's interest soared after hearing this. Mephisto is the Lord of Hell. Even the most powerful witchcraft society in the world, the Priory, is helpless against his contract. But now, an unknown monastery dares to take the soul from Mephisto, and it works every time.
As far as Luna knew, the person who often did this had long since passed away. This monastery must be extraordinary, and perhaps it has some secrets that arouse people's imagination.
"Then, Sir Johnny, are you willing to believe in the Holy Light, praise the Holy Light, and dedicate the rest of your life to... ahem, I spoke out of turn, it's just professional habit." The black-skinned priest coughed lightly, then reformatted his words.
"Let me ask you again, are you willing to make this agreement with me, saving the child, and also saving yourself?"
"I wish... that all Holy Light MLM members will perish!" Johnny suddenly roared, threw a punch, and knocked the black-skinned priest away.
Don't get me wrong, Johnny is willing to do this, but the bald devil in him is not. Although he is obsessed with revenge, he is not stupid. He has gone through hardships to escape from Mephisto's shackles. Even though the young body he controls is getting old, it's good to be able to use it in this difficult time.
In fact, the biggest beneficiary of the contract seal is the Spirit of Vengeance. Mephisto holds Johnny's soul, and without the bondage of the contract, the Spirit of Vengeance is free. If the contract is lifted, the Spirit of Vengeance will return to Mephisto, and it will not accept such a consequence.
"Spirit of Vengeance, Johnny's choice is not up to you." The black-skinned priest got up and spoke firmly. He was not discouraged by the spirit of vengeance, but instead became more motivated.
Not every inheritor believes in the Holy Light, but those who believe in it must have the heart to pass on the fire. Every Holy Light preacher dreams of sacrificing himself to save the world, but this is not possible for everyone, so most are keen to rescue lost men and women.
Watching Johnny struggling between light and darkness, the black-skinned priest couldn't help but silently pray, Holy Light, that unlucky man with a high forehead deserves salvation!
The priest's palm flickered with light, as if he wanted to help Johnny suppress the spirit of revenge, but to no avail. The spirit of revenge is a fallen angel, and its resistance to holy light is strong. Soon, Johnny could no longer suppress the evil flame in his body.
"I can't hold it back anymore, he's coming out." Johnny cried out in horror.
"Then you can lend him a helping hand." Lu Yifang looked at Coulson.
"Well, I'm familiar with this matter." Coulson clenched his fist and strode towards Johnny, who was on the verge of losing control.
"Roar, don't even think about sending me back to hell again! Bang!" The skeletonized Johnny was instantly punched in the face by Coulson.
Ghost Rider has none of the weaknesses of ordinary demons. He is nearly immortal and can recover even if he is reduced to ashes. He has a quick enchantment with Hellfire and the Eye of Judgment. He has a host of magical skills and powers...but he can't defeat Coulson's punch. How sad.
"What's the next step?" Coulson dragged the unconscious Johnny and asked everyone.
"The necessary spellcasting materials are ready. We just need to find a safe place and remove the seal on Doctor Strange." Father Moreau said.
………………
The night was dark, dark clouds covered the moon, lightning and thunder roared, and the wind was raging, but not a drop of rain fell. On a ruined roof, several people stood side by side, staring at the warehouse below.
"This magic circle is making quite a noise, and its effectiveness is unknown." Lu Yifang examined the magic circle covering the warehouse. The abnormal celestial phenomena around it were all due to its influence.
"Don't worry. I have already told Johnny to let the spirit of vengeance out. Driven by desire, the irrational spirit of vengeance will definitely compromise." Father Moreau was full of confidence.
"Look, he's about to show up." Coulson pointed down.
Johnny stumbled and broke through the warehouse door, the fire of hell burning around him. But now it was different, the contract was restarted, the ghost rider's skull was no longer shining, but dark, and the fire of hell was mixed with wisps of black smoke.
The black skeleton ghost rider was seen demonizing the motorcycle, turning it into a streak of fire and instantly disappearing from everyone's sight.
"Do you know why the skull turned black?" Lu Yifang asked Luna after seeing this scene.
"It must be that you have been betrayed by humans again and have become even more corrupt." Luna looked at Father Moreau, her eyes sparkling. "It seems that every time you redeem the host, you actually betray the spirit of revenge and push it into the abyss of hell. Once its flames turn completely black, a new powerful force - the devil will be born, and you have created a huge threat."
