Chapter 1609 Moths to the fire Good start

"He's dead?" After hearing this news, Old Carter's face could no longer find any other expression except surprise.

He never thought that such a situation would happen. Because in his expectation, he should have spent the rest of his life in the shadow of Mephisto. After all, a devilish king like Mephisto must live a little longer than him. If he wants to gain his own freedom and not settle the score with him, he must have to crawl in a corner that he can't see, trembling.

This was the mental preparation that Old Carter had already made, but now Peter's words told him that his preparation was useless. This naturally made him feel surprised. However, this was always a good thing, at least for him. So after he came to his senses, he immediately breathed a long sigh, and then his whole body showed a look that he seemed to break free from the heavy shackles, as if he was completely reborn.

"Thank God, this is really good news. I thought I would never want to hear anything about this guy again in my life. Unexpectedly, fate played such a big joke on me. Mephisto, you damn bastard, you have today too."

After spitting fiercely, Old Carter's face showed a real smile for the first time. Looking at his new smile, Peter suddenly felt embarrassed to make such a request to him. In any case, this was an old man who had been tortured by the shadow from hell for a hundred years. He had finally been able to break free from such shadows, but he wanted to pull him down again. This was really cruel.

This comes from the sympathy and compassion in Peter's kind nature. However, this sympathy and compassion only existed for a short time and were already strangled by him personally. Because he knew in his heart that any sympathy and compassion were useless at this time. This is just weakness, and this manifestation of weakness is absolutely impossible to help him save the world and uphold justice. Only by making up his mind and making sacrifices. Only by achieving the big self with the small self can the world be saved.

Under this premise, even oneself can be sacrificed, so naturally, anyone else should be like this.

With this idea, Peter no longer hesitated, but immediately said to Old Carter.

"Mr. Sley. This is also the reason why I found you this time. Mephisto is dead. A guy who may have a huge conspiracy has mastered the entire hell. He opened the door to hell and released all the evil spirits and devils there onto our world. He did not let these guys cause trouble, but let them lurk, and secretly brewing a great conspiracy that is likely to subvert the entire world. We cannot let such a threat continue, so I need your help!"

Peter's frankness did not make people feel much relief, and this could be seen from the gloomy look on Old Carter's face. However, although his face was much ugly, he did not directly say no to Peter. He was obviously also measuring the authenticity of Peter's words and measuring whether he deserves his trust.

And in the end, Peter's special identity played a very important role. This made Old Carter make up his mind and said to Peter as if he was willing to give up.

"What are you going to ask me to help you?"

There is no doubt that this is a very good start. This naturally made Peter start to be excited. Of course, the excitement is only a moment. After experiencing so many things, Peter has already developed the skill of not showing his emotions. So at the moment, he just said to Old Carter with a calm face.

"I need to get the support of the Ghost Rider. Every person, every Ghost Rider. I need them to deliver their power to me and help me fight for control of hell."

"We believe that only by using Zatanos' authority to gain the status of the Lord of Hell can we prevent this catastrophe from hell. We can even use this to counterattack our enemies. No matter what kind of conspiracy they have, as long as our plan can be successful, then we can completely cut off their roots before they act. Then launch a completely fatal blow to these guys with ulterior motives."

"Eliminate them completely, let them pay for what they do, avenge the innocent and make justice work. Isn't this what we, the Ghost Riders, should do the most?"

Peter's words had a kind of inspiring power. Obviously, this was the truest thought in his heart. And this was the Peter Parker that Old Carter knew.

No, it should be said that the Spider-Man Peter Parker, who was present in front of him at this time, was more pure than the guy he knew through the media. He was like a flame, not only warming others and illuminating others. At the same time, while burning all sins, he exuded the power that might burn others.

His will is too strong and pure, and this purity may not bring him a good result.

Old Carter, who has a very rich life experience, can almost see Peter's final result at a glance. Although he was willing to persuade him, after seeing Peter's eyes, he quietly gave up this idea.

Peter's eyes were special, it was a look with flames inside. This look was familiar to Old Carter. In the Civil War, many black people resolutely joined the war against the southern slave owners with such eyes. It was a look that they knew they would die but did not hesitate. It was a look that had already had the awareness of sacrifice.

Such people can never be persuaded by persuasion alone. Just like moths that swept the fire, they may not change their thoughts even when the fire burns. This is precisely because they clearly recognize this that Old Carter gave up this idea and sighed and said to Peter.

"Your thoughts shocked me, and I am very willing to help you in such things. But you have also seen that I have lost the Spirit of Revenge and can rely on only such a tiny little hellfire. This can only hold my life and make me survive. It is not enough to support me and let me go on the battlefield as a ghost knight. So I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't help you in such things."

This is both a kind of ruling and a real situation. Carter Sley killed his revenge spirit for freedom, and this kind of thing naturally has to pay a price. And this price is power. He is free, but at the same time he also loses the power of the revenge spirit and the possibility of transforming into a ghost knight again. It is a blessing that he can live, and it is impossible to let him fight.

Peter obviously realized this, but he did not give up on Old Carter because of this. He even said that after Old Carter refused, he immediately said to Old Carter.

"Mr. Shiley. You have also served as a Ghost Rider. I believe you also know how huge threat those evil spirits are to ordinary people. Under their threat, no one can survive. Maybe you have lost the power of the Ghost Rider, but this does not mean that you are useless in this war. Your wisdom and experience can also help us. What we need to unite is everyone, no matter whether you can become a knight or not, you are one of the forces we strive for. We need you, and this world needs you. So, please don't reject us, okay?"

At this time, Peter showed his greatest sincerity. His almost pleading attitude really touched Old Carter's heart.

He was not such a stern person. Otherwise, he would not have chosen a path to betray Mephisto at that time. It was precisely because of his conscience and the justice that still existed in his heart that he was directly infected by Peter at this time, stroked his chest and bent down at him.

"If you insist on doing this, then Carter Sley is willing to serve you!"

"Very good!" The development of things finally had a perfect result, which made Gu Yi, who had been watching the changes in the situation, couldn't help but clapping. She thought that Peter was unable to control such occasions at such a time, and his lack of life experience would make him unable to speak of an old stubborn like Carter and Sley. However, reality gave her a considerable surprise. Peter, who had such an enlightenment, was obviously better than she thought.

He had begun to show a certain leadership temperament, which made Gu Yi feel confident that his vision and also began to have other plans. So at the moment, she clapped and said to Peter.

"You did a great job, Mr. Parker. I thought it would be hard for you to talk to this gentleman. But obviously, you did better than I expected. In this way, I would be relieved. I can free up my hands to do other things!"

"Are you going to let go?"

Gu Yi's words gave Peter a bad premonition, and he quickly asked this. In the face of his questioning, Gu Yi just said to him helplessly.
