"Just like you said, keep him in the sun. Now, we threw him on the lawn."
Hogan pointed in the direction of the cabin.
Colin looked in the direction Hogan pointed, said to him to wait here, and then controlled the abominable zombie to walk towards the direction of the old cowboy.
Mephisto has not appeared yet, which basically means he does not know the location of the Saint Vanganza Contract, or in other words, he cannot monitor the status of his former knight in real time.
Otherwise, for a demon king, the distance of a city cannot be the reason why he cannot arrive.
And at this rare moment when the goddess of luck favors him, he naturally wants to test the true strength of the Ghost Rider.
After all, ever since he did this incident, Ghost Rider has become one of his opponents.
The old cowboy, covered in blood, lay motionless on the ground. Only the heaving of his chest showed that he was not dead.
Colin did not let down his guard and run over to check. Instead, he controlled the Abomination to turn the old cowboy over, and used his big hands like a blanket to fix the old cowboy's head so that his back was always facing him, and then he walked over to check.
The power of death gradually permeated every part of the old cowboy's body, and just as Colin was observing at a deeper level, his consciousness was suddenly pulled into a purgatory filled with flames.
Flames were rising under my feet and thick magma was spraying towards the sky!
In the center of this world, he clearly saw a demon sealed in black chains roaring angrily. Inside the seal, the soul of the old cowboy seemed to be connected to the soul of the demon, and it was looking in his direction.
Colin was suddenly startled and instantly cut off his magic power, broke free from the illusion, and retreated repeatedly.
"Interesting." Looking at the burn on his hand, Colin's eyes sparkled.
He seemed to know the true identity of Ghost Rider.
"No, I can't say for sure yet. I can only say that the probability is very high."
Colin shook his head, trying to calm himself down.
Looking at the rule chains deep in the soul of this old cowboy, it is indeed the same as the record of selling the soul to the devil in the inheritance, but the difference is that the soul of the old cowboy is also deeply connected with the soul of another demon in his body, no, it should be said that the soul fragments are deeply connected. I think it is because of this reason that these knights who signed the contract can resist Mephisto...
However, is this kind of resistance really resistance? When the knight is still alive, he can resist Mephisto's will because of the demon in his body, but after he dies, under the effect of the rules of signing the contract, his soul will inevitably return to Mephisto's hands, and the ending will not change at all.
And Mephisto went to so much trouble to create these disobedient knights. His purpose should be to deal with the demons in the knights' bodies
Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, judging from his condition, he was at least a demon at the level of a demon lord. And because the soul fragment was deeply connected to the knight's soul, every time the contract ended, a part of it would also belong to Mephisto because of the contract
"Oh, no wonder every generation of knights rebels against Mephisto. No wonder this demon king who was torn into pieces and sealed away provides power to the knights and tries his best to protect these knights from death."
"This method of boiling a frog in warm water, giving you hope but never letting you truly grasp it and leaving you in utter despair in the end, is truly a trick the devil would use!"
"But if that's the case, why did he go to the trouble of making the contract?"
Colin frowned and thought for a while, then gave up the idea.
Based on the original movie plot, he had a few guesses, but it was hard to say whether they were the truth, and he couldn't make any arrangements based on these speculations.
What is really important now is what to do with this old cowboy.
For this kind of Ghost Rider who is connected to the Soul of the Demon King, if the host is in his prime, with his current means, there is no way to kill him under the protection of the Soul of the Demon King.
But since the host himself is already on the verge of his limit, there is some possibility of manipulation.
But the problem now is that he doesn't dare to actually kill this guy.
If he was really killed, according to the rules of the devil's contract, the old cowboy's soul would instantly fall into Mephisto's hands, and in that case, what he had done would be immediately exposed.
This is a fatal thing for Colin, who has not yet absorbed the souls in the contract.
"It seems like we can only leave it alone like this."
Having made up his mind, Colin waved his hand to put away his hatred and walked towards the car.
Although this will sooner or later lead to him being hunted down by the Witch Heart Demon, the new generation of Ghost Rider and the like, but after he absorbs these souls, even if they don't come to him, he will take the initiative to go over and test the strength of these devils in the world.
Otherwise, he would be uneasy because he couldn't figure out how strong his enemy was.
"Go back to the villa!"
Colin walked into the car and gave an order. The driver in front responded, and with the loud roar of the engine, the van left the cemetery.
…
After returning to the villa, Colin told Du Lu that he wanted to go into seclusion and not be disturbed, then he locked himself in the room.
When he appeared again, it was already noon three days later.
"Attributes!"
Colin muttered to himself, and suddenly, a transparent panel that only he could see appeared out of thin air.
Colin Black
Occupation: Necromancer
Level: 18 [37/86,002]
Strength: 19
Agility: 20
Constitution: 19
Energy: 58
Health: 190 [Depending on the physical condition, the speed of health recovery also varies. Under the current physical condition, a maximum of 15 health points can be recovered every 24 hours]
Magic power: 580 [Under special conditions such as non-magic power exhaustion and mental withering, 58 points of magic power can be automatically restored every 24 hours. Meditation can greatly increase the magic power recovery speed. ]
Elemental resistance: Fire 0, Ice 0, Lightning 0, Poison 0.
Free Attributes: 0
As he expected, the quality of the souls in the scroll far exceeded that of ordinary people. Each evil spirit was equivalent to five to six ordinary human souls.
The total amount of experience that it can bring to him is between 450,000 and 500,000.
However, after spending about 2,000 Fallen Souls to reach level 18, he did not use the remaining ones.
On the one hand, after reaching this level, further upgrading one or two levels will not bring much improvement. On the other hand, he has reached his limit.
After all, although the soul extraction function of the panel is powerful, humans themselves have their limits. The strength has skyrocketed nearly tenfold in three days, which is already a crazy improvement.
He shook his dizzy head, closed the attribute panel, and opened the skill panel instead.
The significant level increase not only unlocked a large number of new inherited memories in the mind, but also acquired fourteen skill points.
He also had some new ideas about the use of skill points.
To put it bluntly, skill points extend the sense of time infinitely, and you can only come out of this state after you have mastered the selected spell to the next stage.
But during this infinitely extended time, it does not mean that he can only think about the skills he has chosen, so he made an attempt.
Even though the experiment was successful, he definitely didn't want to experience it a second time for at least a week, no, half a month.
I have roughly written a detailed introduction to the skills, but even if I tried to be as concise as possible, I still aimed at 5,000 words. That would be too long-winded and the plot would be too fragmented. If you are really interested, you can go to the work-related information. I have posted the protagonist's spells there.
Also, there is no need to worry about the collapse of the power system. This upgrade was already included in the outline, and future upgrades will generally be like this. Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to write it level by level, and you wouldn't feel any improvement.
