demon godfather

Wolfgang started the car.Scott glanced back. Through the rear glass, he saw Chris standing blankly by the fence of 16 White Street, watching them leave, with a blank expression, as if he had lost his soul.

"Poor guy," Scott said. "Can't we take him?"

"Of course not." Wolfgang said decisively, "He's from the Demon Hunters Association. God knows if they have installed a tracker or something on him. He might attract them."

"But why should we be afraid of the Witcher Association?" Scott put on his seat belt.Beren changed back to his dog form, curled up in the back seat and dozed off, and his ears moved when he heard Scott's question. "Dark hunters and associations have always been well-known, why should we avoid them?"

Wolfgang concentrated on steering the wheel: "They know."

"what do you know?"

"They may want to kill you. Not only the association, but also other forces...they want your life!"

"But why is this? What did I do to bring about my death?"

Wolfgang was silent.The buildings on the side of the road swept back quickly, and Scott watched with melancholy that the town he was familiar with was gradually going away.After driving out of the town and getting on the notice, Wolfgang said, "It's not what you did, but what I did."

"So, what did you do?"

The godfather shook his head, unwilling to share this question with his godson.

"Why don't you talk? I'm not a kid anymore, why don't you tell me anything?!"

"No matter how old you get, you'll always be a ten-year-old with a runny nose in my eyes."

Annoyed, Scott yelled "Stop!" and leaned over to grab control of the steering wheel.The godfather hurriedly pushed him away.Cars snaking and snaking along the freeway would surely lead to terrible accidents if there were not so many cars on the road.

"It's about my life and death, why didn't you tell me?!" Scott was furious, "What are you hiding? - Dominic is dead! The next one is me! I don't want to die for no reason!"

"I will protect you!" Wolfgang gritted his teeth.

"First you have to tell me the truth!"

"There is no truth!"

Scott grabbed the godfather's collar suddenly: "Is it related to your real identity? Is it because I am your godson?"

For a moment, he saw panic in the godfather's eyes, but he was quickly calmed down.

"Do you know my true identity?"

"You're Mephisto Phillus, aren't you? 'Wolfgang Schiller,' the name is so suggestive it's hard not to think that way."

Wolfgang—or Mephistopheles—cast a grave glance at his godson.

"I am," he said.

Dominic was so dizzy that he almost fell off his horse, but Abaddon caught him from behind.

"Wolfgang...Godfather, he is Mephistopheles..." He muttered to himself, "He never told us...why did he hide..."

"Probably because he doesn't have the face to admit it." Abaddon sneered. "This name is a big laughing stock in hell. It's called me, and I don't want to admit it."

"what happened?"

Abaddon yelled "drive", the ghost horse snorted, and moved on, passing through the Mephistopheles Gate and entering the inner city.

"Mephisto is the Maharaja's deputy, his most capable general, and the most important minister. But he betrayed the Maharaja at a critical moment—although he did it out of necessity, but a betrayal is a betrayal."

Desolate and dilapidated stone buildings can be seen everywhere in the inner city, some of which still retain their magnificent shells, and some have collapsed into disrepair.The wind mixed with desolate wailing entered the inner city, shuttled and circled among the many fallen stone pillars and decayed corridors, and finally turned into a hoarse sob, which made people feel sad.

"About 1 years ago, a great war broke out between the heavens and the earth. The Maharaja led the legions of hell and fought against the troops of the Archangel Archangel of the heavens at Armageddon. That battle almost destroyed the entire world."

"The godfather mentioned this to me," Dominique said.

"Oh?" The corner of Abaddon's mouth twitched, "What did he say? About the result of that battle."

"He said that the Lord of Hell and the Archangel were evenly matched, exhausted their strength in the battle, and both entered a dormant state, so the subordinates of both sides agreed to cease fighting."

Abaddon chuckled. "lie."

"What? Isn't that true?"

"Of course he won't tell you the truth, so I had to make up a story to lie to you. The part of the 'truce between the two sides' is true, but the reason for the truce is not at all 'the majesty has exhausted his strength'."

"What's the reason?"

Abaddon looked into the distance, and in the center of the inner city, a high mountain rose from the ground, like a huge stalagmite.The magnificent palace is built along the mountain, gradually rising along the mountain, and on the top of the mountain stands a towering tower.He stared at the tower in bewilderment, retracted his gaze, and said to Dominic: "The maharaja and the archangel are evenly matched, and the power released by the two sides in the battle is enough to destroy the entire world—in fact, the world is indeed on the verge of destruction. But Some people on both sides of the enemy do not want to see this. Their purpose is to occupy the world, not to destroy it. So Mephisto betrayed the Maharaja, and met with Gabriel, the adjutant of the Celestial Legion in private, and the two sides reached an agreement Afterwards, Mephisto returned to the Hell Legion and falsely passed the order of the Maharaja, saying that the Maharaja would fight the opponent one-on-one and let others withdraw from Armageddon. Because he is the Maharaja's adjutant, no one Doubting the authenticity of the order, everyone followed suit. When the army withdrew, Mephisto and Gabriel joined forces to seal Armageddon in a different time and space, keeping that battle away from our world. As a result, the world He was indeed saved, but the Maharaja disappeared forever."

"Gabriel and I joined forces to seal Armageddon, and the world has been peaceful since then." Wolfgang opened the window of the car a little, and the wind came in, blowing his white hair, "I don't want to see the world destroyed. At that time, the majesty was already blood-red, his consciousness was not clear at all, and he didn't know anything except fighting. The archangel of the other side was not much better. The worst thing was that the subordinates of both sides were still obeying them——World It's going to be destroyed! So I made a decision to join hands with Gabriel. People call me a traitor, I admit it, but I always believe that the decision I made is correct. If the majesty is still conscious, he will agree to what I did."

Scott crossed his arms and suddenly felt cold. "And then? What happened later? Why did you come to the world?"

"Later...the Maharaja disappeared, and I was called a traitor, and I was cast aside. There was no leader in hell, and the lords, big and small, had different ideas. They returned to their own territories and no longer obeyed the orders issued by the capital. That's it, the heroes Separatist regimes, independent governments, mutual conflicts. Big lords annexed small lords, and then were usurped by their own subordinates... Such things happen all the time. I tried to raise troops and establish a temporary regime, but failed. The situation at that time was beyond my control .”

"Mephisto tried to take the prince and replace him, hehe, it's a fantasy. No one in hell would obey him. Several princes formed a joint army and beat him to pieces. He lost everything—reputation, power, Territory, army, there is no place for him in hell, he can only flee to the world with his tail between his legs, hiding his name, like a stray dog."

Abaddon rode through the dilapidated streets towards the high mountains in the center of the capital.

"If Mephisto's story ends here, that's fine. But he is not reconciled. He still wants to regain his former power and return to hell to be the ruler. But he has lost everything, so how can he have the strength to return to hell? ? Think about it carefully, in the whole world, there is not only one person who can help Mephisto make a comeback?"

Abaddon squeezed Dominic's chin, and pulled him roughly towards himself: "That's the Maharaja. So Mephisto is going to unseal Armageddon and summon it to come again, and the Maharaja is there. He To crawl back to the Majesty, lick the Majesty's boots like a dog, beg the Majesty to forgive his sins, and give him a chance to show his loyalty. But does Armageddon mean that it will come when it comes? Summon it , there must be a key—a very special key."

"I thought about it for a long time, did I do something wrong? I tried to save the world, but it turned out to be a wrong move? I decided to save everything and get everything back on the right track. And the starting point where everything deviated from the track That's when—the time to seal Armageddon. To put the world back on track, I can only summon Armageddon again. I need a key, or rather, a sacrifice. In magical rituals, it The scientific name of the lamb is the 'lamb'. Armageddon can only come when the 'lamb' is sacrificed."

Scott stared at the godfather's profile.In the thin sunlight, his skin seemed to be transparent.

"Then what is the key—the 'Lamb'—?"

"In ancient times, some demons and angels went to the human world and combined with humans to reproduce. Their offspring have more or less supernatural powers. And some of them belong to the two parties. They met by chance and gave birth to For a child who possesses the blood of demons and angels at the same time. Such a person who has both bloods at the same time held a special ceremony when he was a baby, combining the blood of angels or demons to activate his own power, then when he was young At the age of 19, one can become a 'lamb' and become the key to summon Armageddon. That ceremony is the 'black baptism'."

"Your godfather, Mephisto, or Wolfgang Schiller, has been looking for children who are suitable to be 'lambs' at the same time. There are very few people with special blood, and even more people with both angel and demon blood It is rare, but coincidentally, he actually found it, and found two in the same generation-one is you, Dominic, and the other is your brother Scott. God knows he and your parents What kind of agreement was reached, whether it was coercion or coercion, or trickery, or he directed the meeting of your parents at all. In short, he performed a "black baptism" on your two children, letting his blood and yours Combine. When the age is right, he will sacrifice you to the altar and call Armageddon!"

Abaddon stroked Dominic's hair affectionately: "What a poor child, your godfather doesn't really love you at all, but just uses you as a tool to regain power and a stepping stone to Armageddon. The harmonious family of your father, loving son, and filial piety is all a drama. It is ridiculous that you have taken it seriously and been deceived by him for so many years! Now that you have passed away unfortunately, it may not be a good thing, otherwise when you are betrayed by Mei Pfister was sent to the altar, experienced the betrayal of his dearest and loved ones, and witnessed the doomsday, the despair and unwillingness at that time... Hahaha, it is really sympathetic!"

"But I'm 19, and so is Dominic," Scott said incredulously, "why haven't you sacrificed us yet?"

"Dominic... When he performed the 'black baptism', something went wrong. He is not a complete 'lamb' body. And you,"

The godfather frowned, with a painful look on his face, "When I looked at you two, I... I regretted it."

After finishing speaking, he showed a nervous look, as if he had said something he shouldn't have said.After a while, he repeated mechanically: "I regret it. Yes, I regret it again. I don't know when, I no longer look forward to the end."
