Chapter 294 Carter’s Fat Defense�

With the roar of a horse coming from his ears, everything in front of Yadan disappeared in an instant.

The strong wind, lightning, and heavy rain disappeared, and the old man's figure also turned into foam.

"Are you lost?" a voice said.

Yadan turned around and saw a gentleman-looking old man with curly silver hair, a cowboy hat, and an old leather coat. He was holding his hands on the saddle, bending down and asking Yadan.

"You're lost." Yadan smiled bitterly and hit his head hard with his hand. What happened just now?

Yadan shook his head and walked past the old man. His mind was very confused now. He just wanted to leave here and be alone.

The old man pulled the reins and turned the horse's head to look in the direction of Yadan. Looking at Yadan's back, the old man couldn't help but said, "Don't believe everything you see. It's all fake. Everything you see is fake." It’s just you, it’s your heart, it’s yours.”

Yadan turned around and looked at the old man blankly.

The old man took off his cowboy hat, put it on his chest, then bowed slightly to Adan and said, "Hello, my name is Carter Shirey. I think I can answer your questions for you."

"Why are you helping me?" Adan asked, staring into Carter Shirey's eyes. Adan didn't think the people who appeared here could be very helpful.

"Oh, people are going to die, and I don't want to see more people being deceived." Carter Shirey said as he put on his cowboy hat again.

"Deceived" Yadan was a little confused.

"Want to hear a story?" Carter Shirey said in a very lonely voice as he looked at the ruins of the surrounding villages.

There are countless legends circulating in the human world, and those legends can help people interpret supernatural things and shocking things. ..

Among countless legends, one legend has been circulating on this continent, passed down from generation to generation from the ancestors of the distant Indians.

Cursed souls are running around in the world. They spend eternity to fulfill the devil's contract. In a long and endless time, their flames have been burning for the devil.

They are the Ghost Riders, a group of sad and ridiculous souls.

Adan looked at Carter Shirey in front of him and asked, "Are you the Ghost Rider?"

Carter Shrey smiled and nodded.

"Then Johnny Blaze is also the Ghost Rider"

"Yes, he is the Ghost Rider of this generation, a soul enslaved by the devil."

Carter Shiley confirmed Yadan's suspicion.

"So the old man I saw before, he is the devil in your mouth." Adan pointed at Carter Shirey with his finger.

"No, he is not Mephisto. What you see is just the phantom in your heart. Mephisto is good at using this trick to deceive others." Carter Shirey shook his head and said.

"Mephisto" Adan frowned.

"That's right, Mephistopheles, the devil mentioned in Faust who is good at seducing humans. He is the Lord of Hell. He can always lead you down the wrong path." Carter Shrey said with a wry smile. From the lonely look on his face, Ardan could tell at a glance that Carter Shrey was a poor soul who had been played by Mephistopheles.

"By the way, have you signed a contract with Mephistopheles?" Carter Shirey raised his head and looked at Adan and asked.

"contract"

"Deal, I'll give you what you want most and take away what you think is the most useless. Do you agree?" Carter Shiley stared closely into Adan's eyes.

Ardan shook his head, pointed at Carter Shirey and said, "You showed up just in time, but what he gave you was really tempting. Flashdance..."

"Don't believe Mephisto," Carter Shrey shouted excitedly. "Don't believe him. He is a liar. If you sign a contract with him, you will have nothing in the end."

Ardan shrugged and did not respond to Carter Shirey.

"What's going on here, this place." Adan said, looking around, and asked Carter Shirey about the story of this village.

Yadan was really curious as to why this village could be so special, even able to isolate itself from the barrier of the Supreme Mage Ancient One.

"Are you talking about this village? It was another group of greedy people. They made a wrong choice. They believed in Mephistopheles, so this place became what it is now. This village, along with their souls, They all went to hell.”

Carter Shrey said and sighed.

"This place could have brought the world into despair, but that kid Johnny Blaze saved it all." Carter Shirey said and nodded.

"Is it still dangerous here?" Yadan asked anxiously.

A smile appeared on Carter's face, "I hope no humans will come here."

Adan nodded thoughtfully. After getting everything he wanted to know, Adan bowed slightly to Carter Shire and thanked him, and then prepared to leave.

And Carter Shirey just watched Adan's leaving figure quietly. After all, he had done everything he wanted to do, and now it was time for him to hit the road.

"boom"

Yadan had only taken a few steps when there was a sudden sound of a heavy object falling to the ground behind him.

Yadan looked back and saw that the horse was still standing on the same spot, but the figure on its back had fallen to the ground.

Yadan hesitated and walked over.

"Are you okay?" Adan knelt on one knee and leaned over to observe Carter Shirey's condition.

"I'm fine." Carter Shirey shook his head and said, "I just lived too long, and now, the time has come."

When Adan heard Carter Shirey's words, what Carter Shirey had said to him before suddenly rang in his mind.

"Are you going to die? Didn't your soul belong to Mephistopheles? Are you not the Ghost Rider? Why are you still dying?" Adan asked.

"The people in this village signed a contract with Mephisto, and they exchanged this land and their souls to Mephisto. At first, Mephisto wanted to take back the signed contract, but If he is allowed to get the contract, he can spread the tentacles of hell to the human world."

Carter Shirey coughed and continued weakly.

"So I betrayed Mephisto, and I ran away with the contract. When I betrayed Mephisto, the power of hellfire in my body lost its source, and I used it less and less. And now, hell The fire is exhausted, I lost the power of Ghost Rider, I should die." Carter Shirey's face was full of a satisfied smile.

"Wait a minute, didn't you say Johnny Blaze saved this place? What do you mean by taking away the contract? Where's the contract?" Carter Shrey's remaining time did not allow him to finish telling Ardan the story. Carter Shrey died. Dropped but he was already dead.

Adan grabbed Carter Shiray's collar, but obviously Carter Shiray had no way to respond to Adan.

Looking at the empty corpse in front of him, Adan felt a little discouraged. He loosened his hands holding Carter Shirey's collar, and Carter Shirey's body fell heavily to the ground.

Yadan breathed out and prepared to get up and leave.

But at this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed Yadan's hand. Yadan turned his head and looked, and Carter Shirey on the ground turned into a human skeleton burning with flames.

"Look me in the eyes"

Carter Shrey roared lowly, and two skeletal hands grabbed Adan's head forcefully, making Yadan look directly into Carter Shrey's empty eyes.

There was nothing in his eyes, only the flames that kept burning. The flames made Yadan's heart tremble.

The moment was very fast and very slow. In the sense of time, it was only a second, but Adan felt like decades had passed.

At that moment, Yadan seemed to see a lot, but those things that Yadan should have seen were swallowed up by an endless void, which was the color of time.

"Hiccup~"

Ardan sucked in a big breath, and Carter Shirey in front of him turned into a skeleton, an ordinary skeleton, without flames, nothing special, just a skeleton.

"hiss"

The horse raised its front hooves and roared. It pushed past Adan and came to Carter Shirey's side. It picked up the skeleton on the ground with its mouth and threw it on itself.

Just like that, the horse left with Carter Shirey's skeleton, and his figure gradually disappeared into the wind and sand in the village.

When the horse's figure completely disappeared from sight, Yadan clenched his fists, turned around and left.

Mephistopheles, Fangansa, and Carter Shrey were all just a small episode for Adan, but was the phantom that appeared in front of him really coming from his heart? Did he really want it? Go back?

Adan shook his head and left.

After Yadan left, a figure appeared in front of the church, a rickety figure on crutches.
