224. Sign a contract with me
I forgot to modify the content of the previous chapter before it was released...
...
Although he didn't know who the old man was in front of him, Hebi, who was already desperate, would naturally not let this life-saving straw go. He quickly asked: "What deal?! What do I need to pay?"
"Your soul, my dear Herbie," said the old man with a smile, "I am very interested in your special soul like your artificial intelligence. As long as I sign this contract with me, I can help you out of trouble."
As the old man said, he transformed a simple parchment paper out of thin air with some transaction terms written on it. Simply put, the old man helped Herbi out of trouble. After Herbi died, his soul would belong to the old man named Mephisto in front of him.
“Mephisto…”
Hebi, who has a lot of knowledge, naturally could not not know about this name, but he did not expect that there was really a so-called devil in the world.
But Herbi didn't hesitate for too long. It didn't matter if Mephisto had any conspiracy. He just wanted to survive now.
However, before Herbie could sign the contract, Mephisto in front of him suddenly changed his face and screamed: "Damn it! You are not dead!"
Then Herbi saw that Mephisto seemed to be implicated by some kind of force and began to struggle with his hands and feet, but no matter how hard he struggled, his figure still gradually faded and disappeared soon.
"No--!"
After finally seeing hope, Herbi shouted loudly, but unfortunately Mephisto did not appear again. He could only watch his clones being eliminated one by one by one by the Avengers.
Craft knew from the TV news that Herbi had lost something, and he had no special feeling about it. Angela was a little disappointed and was much more difficult to be a similar person, but she ended up committing suicide by herself.
After the broadcast of Herby was resolved, the bureaucrats on TV began to settle accounts, looking for various excuses to take the virtual game cabin made by Reed Richards and some other inventions for themselves.
However, in Craft's opinion, these guys are just doing useless work, and the interests of the virtual game cabin will definitely be tightly grasped by the old Osborne capitalist.
With the two superpowers, Invisible Girl and Thunderbolt, it is unlikely that they will force Reed Richards to take other inventions. In addition, there is also a director of the Raw Egg of S.H.I.E.L.D., starring at him, even if he has to, it will not be the turn of these guys who are making a fuss.
There was Gu Yi who had just walked out of the portal. The old woman gave herself a short platinum hair. Combined with her mysterious temperament, she looked quite handsome.
But then again...
"That legend of Infinity Stone that brings disaster is indeed a lie, right?"
Craft looked at Gu Yi with a squinted eyes. After seeing the essence of Gu Yi's sneering master, Craft couldn't help but stab her a few words whenever he saw her start to pretend.
Moreover, Craft was not talking nonsense. Although Herbi's incident was quite a big deal this time, it seemed that he had little to do with him.
Even the Artificial Intelligence Registration Act is just a painless little thing for Craft.
"I don't know whether the legend is a lie, but you are in trouble."
Gu Yiyi changed his cynical appearance and said to Craft with a serious face.
"oh?"
Craft raised his eyebrows and didn't believe it.
This shaved mage is very bad, and maybe he plans to trick himself into working as a vain job.
"The Lord of Hell has set his sights on the special soul of artificial intelligence. He wanted to lure Hebi to sign a contract with him, but was exiled by me. Next, he will most likely target Angela."
Gu Yi explained patiently.
"Lord of Hell? Is Satan? It's impossible that it's Abaton? Also, why is he eyeing Angela? Isn't there Ultron? Alice and Alare are also artificial intelligence."
"None of them, the Lord of Hell I'm talking about is Mephisto. As for why it is Angela, because now only Angela's soul still maintains the characteristics of artificial intelligence."
After Ultron entered the body made by Craft, the data flow characteristics on the soul disappeared and became like ordinary humans. So after Herbie died, Angela is the only artificial intelligence that has a data soul.
"Okay," Claffe nodded, as if he had accepted Gu Yi's statement, "But wasn't he exiled to hell by you?"
"I was able to exile Mephisto this time because he thought I was dead and unprepared. If he made a comeback next time, he must be fully prepared. I may not be able to discover him in time."
Seeing that Craft still didn't take his words to heart, Gu Yi continued to remind him.
"As a demon who is good at playing with people's hearts, Mephisto's favorite thing is to use various misunderstandings to deceive others into signing contracts with him and hand over his soul."
As if he was afraid that Craft would not pay enough attention, Gu Yi added another sentence.
"Even Kama Taj's senior mage may be confused by him, so Angela must not be careless."
"Yeah, I get it."
Seeing that Gu Yi was so serious, Craft was not an ungrateful person, so he quickly responded.
"Angela, you heard it too? If you encounter such a strange person, report it to me and Grandma Gu Yi in time and don't make your own decisions... Oh!"
Gu Yi calmly withdrew his fist, "How many times have you said it, don't call me grandma."
"Don't worry, brother, I won't be fooled easily!"
Angela played the pirate hat on her head and replied with a smile.
"Brother, you are stupid, be careful not to be deceived."
"Craft doesn't have to worry. Mephisto's attention is the special soul of artificial intelligence. He won't be too interested in the souls of ordinary humans. Moreover, he has a soul gem in his body, so he won't be so easily confused by Mephisto."
"Um...so? Then Angela, I'll give you the Soul Gem, just in case."
Craft raised his hand, an orange crystal appeared in his palm, and then he gently flicked the phantom of Angela beside him, and the soul gem merged into Angela's soul.
Similar to the reality gem, the soul gem can be hosted on the soul, but this can only be done after having a certain control over the soul gem, or like the previous red skull, it was actively selected as the host by the soul gem.
"Hey hey hey?!! What should you do with that brother?!"
"Merphisto is not interested in my soul, and I have two Infinity Stones on my body."
Craft waved his hand, "Even if I'm really targeted, Angela, you can move to me quickly through the Internet, but I can't save you in time, so it's better to put the soul gem on you."
Under Craft's persuasion, Angela finally accepted the soul gemstones in her custody.
"To be honest, it doesn't seem to be of much use to put Infinity Stone on me now. Otherwise, let's just give these two to Alice and Alari... Alari is actually quite matched with the Power Stone."
Craft, who felt that he should treat his sisters equally, had an extremely dangerous idea in his mind.
Hearing Craft's murmur, Gu Yi didn't care about her master's demeanor, she raised her hand and knocked her head over: "Don't do stupid things! If you really give the power gem to Alare, you don't need Thanos, the universe will be over!"
"Oh! I just said that..."
Craft muttered embarrassedly, covering his head.
"But when it comes to Thanos... he hasn't been here for so long, and his efficiency is as bad as ever... Or is he not receiving the news that you've been burping away?"
"Although I'm 'dead', don't forget that there is still Odin in Asgard!"
Gu Yi rolled his eyes and replied.
"But Odin can't hold on for long. If nothing unexpected happens, in another two or three years it will be Ragnarok. By then, not only Odin, but even Asgard will be destroyed."
Speaking of this, Gu Yi glanced at Craft, and she didn't tell Craft.
In most of the timelines she had observed before, Asgard was destroyed by Thor, but there were exceptions, and more than once.
