Chapter 163 Hiding
"I'm afraid not. The bastard turned invisible again after turning a corner." Coulson replied slightly embarrassedly.
"It doesn't matter. He can't escape because someone has noticed him." Lu Yifang said with a smile.
The person he was referring to was Ghost Rider. The moment Wuling Hongguang rushed out, Ghost Rider, who had dealt with the mercenaries, had already locked onto Karigan.
World-class racer Ghost Rider Johnny felt the atmosphere of being evenly matched at this moment. The opponent's inertial drift was undoubtedly a provocation in his eyes. As a racer, he would never tolerate it. He suddenly pulled the accelerator lever of the excavator, stepped on the throttle to the bottom, the magic engine roared, and the exhaust port spewed out double flames, pushing the machine forward.
"Boss, that thing behind us is catching up with us." The two younger brothers in the back seat of the Wuling Hongguang looked at the rearview mirror in fear and shouted.
"How is this possible?" He hid his body and turned two corners. He thought he had gotten rid of the enemy behind him. How could he have expected that the evil knight could track him by sensing the evil aura? What was even more surprising was that the speed of the tracking was as fast as thunder and incredible. "What is approaching? Is it a flying kite from the sky?"
"No, it's a flaming excavator, its entire body is bathed in flames, and its speed may have exceeded 150 kilometers per hour. No, it may be close to 180 kilometers per hour, and it is getting faster and faster."
"Brother, its giant arms have been stretched out, as if to devour us. We are doomed!" The two younger brothers hugged each other and trembled, screaming continuously, their fear beyond words.
In the vast night of Eastern Europe, two steel dragons raced on a long road, and the excavator behind stretched out its claws, ready to pounce on the car in front. The strange scene was like a movie spectacle, and all the drivers passing by were dumbfounded. At the moment of shock, it seemed as if a divine song was quietly playing, echoing in the hearts of every witness.
~~~
My excavator is a pioneer of trends. I chase the road and dig. I can’t help myself. I leave my footprints on the mirror-like road. Under the bright moonlight, the shadow of the excavator arm sways, sometimes far and sometimes near, telling the extraordinary journey...
Under the blue sky, inside the cabin, Coulson stared at Lu Qianxing and said solemnly: "Qianxing, do you really want to take this child to the legendary holy land instead of placing him in S.H.I.E.L.D. or Kamar-Taj?"
“When it comes to exorcising demons, the holy light of the Church is actually the most suitable. It’s not a bad idea to find out the truth.” Behind Lu Qianxing, Luna was leaning back, swaying on her toes, with a hint of leisure in her words.
"The Supreme Sorcerer has also received my news and allowed me to go to this monastery." Johnny approached at the right time, looking quite good, probably because the joy of speeding on the highway last night had not yet dissipated. What made him even happier was that the Ghost Rider curse that had plagued him for so long was about to be lifted.
Little Danny standing next to him had a sad face, as if he was afraid of the legendary monastery, and Johnny could only comfort him with kind words. After seeing the power of Ghost Rider last night, the little boy trusted Johnny more and more.
Following the direction given by Father Moreau, the Quinjet soon landed among the rocks in the desert. When everyone left the plane, they saw a group of people wearing rough linen robes and walking barefoot in the cave.
"Molo, can these people really remove the curse from me? They don't even have shoes." Johnny thought he was about to reach the glorious temple, but when he saw the people in the cave, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
"He is an ascetic!" Before the black-skinned priest could say anything, Luna spoke first. His brows were slightly frowned, but it was gone in an instant, but this scene did not escape Lu Qianxing's eyes.
"That's right, ascetics. The prosperity of this world can easily confuse people, so these wise men are willing to retreat from the world and sharpen their minds in difficult places." Father Moreau said with emotion.
At this time, the ascetics who noticed Lu Qianxing and his group gathered together. The leading man took off his hood, and his face was covered with runes, as were his bare arms.
Lu Qianxing vaguely felt the fluctuations of magical power on it, which was not an ordinary carving.
After Father Moro greeted him, the man nodded and then gestured to his entourage.
A few people walked to the front of the crowd, showing great courtesy; the rest surrounded Nadia and Danny, leading the mother and son in another direction.
"Don't worry. Although they look a little stern, they have kind hearts. You can stay here with peace of mind and enjoy the desert scenery, which is quite charming." After Father Moreau finished speaking, Johnny followed him. The black-skinned priest promised to help him remove the curse, which was Johnny's long-cherished wish.
On the way to the resting place, Luna suddenly snapped her fingers, and two shadows that looked exactly like the two of them suddenly appeared, following the Ascetic, Coulson, and Melinda. And the Ascetic, Coulson, and Melinda were completely unaware of all this.
"What did you find?" Lu Qianxing asked Luna.
"The holy light fluctuations here are strong. My previous speculation is correct. There must be a treasure hidden here." Luna looked around and pulled Lu Qianxing into another cave.
"When you first learned that they were ascetics, you seemed to be unhappy about it?"
"Of course. People who are not followers of the Holy Light tend not to get close to them, and even some followers are the same, because they are too paranoid." Luna explained.
"Ascetics sharpen their wills by abstaining from desire, have strict self-discipline, pursue the purity of the faith of the Holy Light, and are also demanding of others. Most of those selected by the Inquisition in the past were from this type of people."
"Are they fanatical believers?" Lu Qianxing understood. Normal believers would not tattoo the scriptures all over their bodies. "How do you think they will deal with Danny, a demon?"
"Don't be impatient, you will know tomorrow." Luna didn't think too much about it, but looked at the mural in front of her.
In the mural, a corner of the golden cloud cracked open, and a golden staircase descended from the cloud to the human world, followed by a golden ball of light. A giant hand was hidden in the cloud, and the humans on the ground knelt down and prayed.
"What is this golden ball?" Lu Qianxing asked.
"An angel, the one depicted in the mural should be the one inside Johnny." Luna kept her eyes on the painting. "Don't be surprised, angels are bodies of energy, and their transformations are determined by their hearts."
"The Bible says that angels have no gender and no body, so who is that giant hand behind the scenes? Could it be God?" Lu Qianxing said.
"What's so strange about that? That hand is Jehovah." Luna nodded.
"Is there really a God in this world, and is he not just some ancient supernatural being claiming to be one?" Lu Qianxing asked with great interest.
"There are those who claim to be themselves, and there are those who are truly themselves. The appearance of Odin, the Lord of the Nine Realms, is an example." Luna recalled that she had been on Earth for 18,000 years and knew a lot.
"They once turned the tables here. Their strength was not as great as that of a true god, but they were unwilling to be mortals, so they created the position of 'Father God'. In fact, they were only stronger demigods."
"Why do so many demigods gather on Earth? What is so attractive about Earth?" Lu Qianxing asked.
"Because of us." Luna pointed at Lu Qianxing and herself, "The earth is the laboratory of the gods, and humans are their creations. The demigods came here to get a piece of the pie. They are afraid of the gods, so they dare not interfere too much in the human world. Even if Odin unified the nine realms, brought the earth under his command, and expelled other races, he dared not really station troops to conquer it. How could the other seven realms be treated like this? Odin plundered and suppressed them, and was very cruel."
“Therefore, the Earth civilization has remained independent until now, and we should be ‘thankful’ to the gods who regard us as white mice.” After Lu Qianxing finished speaking, there was sadness in his eyes.
"This is the law of survival in the universe. The strong are respected. The gods do not need you and me to be grateful. How can they expect the white rat to thank them?" Luna sneered, and the scene of Atlantis's annihilation flashed through her mind. Her father, the supernatural king, knelt down and begged for forgiveness from the gods, but was only given a contemptuous word:
"What does it have to do with you to destroy you?"
