As the midnight moment in the human world gets closer, in a certain hell dimension that is extremely far away from the human world, the three palace demons sitting on the burning throne are also preparing to throw the projection to the human world again and complete the last step of the contract.

Speaking of which, hell is not a world in the traditional sense.

In fact, the concept of hell is broader than ordinary people think.

It consists of many dimensions, each of which is equivalent to a complete world, and these dimensions are ruled by different hell monarchs. Including the well-known seven kings of hell, some unknown devils or demons who are equally powerful, and finally the largest alien three-demon in hell.

The Three Palace Demon is almost the most powerful among all hell monarchs. It despises other monarchs, but also longs for the position of the king of hell, not being liked by demons and devils, nor does it like its own kind.

It is rude and rough, crazy, and makes the demon afraid.

"Time is coming soon."

The low voice of the Three Palaces echoed in the dimension filled with magma flames, causing the evil demons hiding in the shadow to lower their heads in fear and dare not look directly at the destructive majesty of the Three Palaces.

This hell dimension is very strange, not composed of a complete continent and a sea of ​​lava. On the contrary, one floating island after another is bound by thick and barbaric chains, like hanging islands covered with red poisonous smoke, hanging on this scorching land, forming a bizarre scene.

"The soul of a mortal is always easy to capture, but tonight another treasure will fall into my hands."

On the largest floating island, in the endless scorching breath, the Three Palace Demon sat on the throne, and looked proudly at the world. Tonight, it will have another "son" with great potential.

But just as Sannoha was about to throw the projection, in its huge sea of ​​will, it suddenly heard another weak call.

It was some chantings praising Satan, the king of hell. Just hearing that name made the three palace demons feel extremely disgusted.

It should be a group of demon believers in the human world who were doing a sacrificial trick, but for some reason, they were clearly offering sacrifices to Satan, one of the monarchs of hell, but they were passed on to the ears of the three palaces of demons.

But this also aroused the interest of the Three Palace Demons.

It is a competitor to Satan, and they are all eager for the throne of the king of hell. If this matter is related to Satan, maybe it can make a profit from it.

The devil shared a ray of spirit, and extended the call from the human world, and brought his will to the distant site of the evil god sacrifice. However, he was shocked to find that the group of ghost cultists were surrounding a young woman without any trace of it, chanting the name of Satan.

It seems that that beautiful woman is the sacrifice.

Haha, these mortals are really good at playing

Is there anything more ridiculous than dedicating my compatriots to creatures in foreign lands who desire to be "blessed" by foreign objects?

The naked woman was placed on an ancient stone platform. Her eyes were filled with fear, but her body was locked by chains and could not break free. She could only cry helplessly in the strange chanting sound.

Under the stone platform, there are rough and error-producing evil god marks. At a glance, the projection of the San Palace found no less than 30 errors.

No wonder Sannomiya could hear their call. This group of unprofessional cultists completely misunderstood the order of the runes.

This is as embarrassing as dialing the wrong number when calling the leader to report work.

But how high can we expect from these weak and stupid mortals?

It's already great that they can do this.

The will of the Three Palace Demon was hanging in the air. He looked at the young woman who was sacrificed. The beautiful skin of that woman was meaningless to the Three Palace Demon. What it really cares about was the woman's soul.

At first glance, the Three Palace Demon immediately stood up from the throne.

This woman is unique.

She has a truly Satanic aura, she should have had contact with Satan, or simply the "seed" that Satan deliberately cultivated in the human world.

No wonder this group of cultists would use this woman as a sacrifice to Satan as a "devil bride". Her life is likely to exist for this moment.

Four dark red eyes on the Sangu Demon's face lit up at the same time, and it felt that, perhaps, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was opening its doors to it.

"The body is filled with the power of the devil, a perfect breeding ground. Maybe you can give birth to a real demon prince or princess for me."

The devil smiled, an evil plan appeared in its mind quickly, if he possessed the "devil bride"

Haha, that can not only destroy Satan's plan, but also strengthen its own strength. The most important thing is that it can humiliate the arrogant Satan and make it a hell monarch who cannot even protect his bride

It's really perfect!

The Three Palace Demon walked off the throne, and the demon's appearance slowly changed, and soon turned into the appearance of the white-haired man again.

He reached out and plucked the space, responded to the call of the cultists with his huge and evil will. It was about to go to the world and come to his "bride".

"That is the descendant who truly inherited the great bloodline of the Three Palaces Demons. It is a key and a key to the supreme power!"

The figure of the devil walked past the burning vortex of flames and appeared in the world as a king of hell. His arrival made the cultists extremely frightened, and also filled the eyes of the woman bound on the altar with horror.

Tonight, the Three Palace Demons are about to release their desires, as for Meilin

He is no longer important at the moment when the true son of hell or the princess of hell is about to be born.

But this does not mean that the Three Palace Demon will give up this newly acquired "son". It will not waste every bit of power. Therefore, when it conducts its own "breeding candle", one of its subordinates will replace it and go to the present world to collect Merlin's soul.

But the problem is

"Absent?"

The Three Palace Demon in the world embraces the "Devil Bride" who is fascinated by the magic of darkness. He enjoys a wonderful time in the form of a human being. But the bad news from his subordinates makes the good mood of San Palace immediately worse.

The Demon King asked with a hint of anger:

"What does it mean to disappear?"

Although it was thousands of miles apart, the anger of the Three Palace Demon still pressed almost entirely on the demon's minions who came to the Colson Farm through the spiritual link of the monster.

It was a high-level demon, ferocious and distorted, completely in line with the legendary ugly image of the demon.

Judging from its square four eyes that look like the Three Palace Demon, this guy should also have the magic power of the Three Palace Demon flowing in his body, and it is also one of the real "sons" of the Three Palace Demon.

At this time, this body was more than 4 meters tall, covered with black muscles, and the strong horny son of Hell were pinching the scrolls of Merlin and the Sangu Demon.

It stood in front of Colson's farm, and in the four open eyes, the cunning and vicious light kept flowing, but at this time it was full of fear. Faced with the questioning of the Three Palace Demon, this high-level demon kept searching back and forth in the farm in front of him, but there was no Merlin in the farm except those livestock.

Not even his breath!

It was like Merlin's life was completely erased overnight, and it seemed that he had never existed at all!

"Your Majesty, I can only say that I have not discovered that soul named Merlin at all."

The son of hell trembled and replied:

"Either he has left this world, or there is a power we don't know, cutting off the mark you left on him. With my power, I can't break the closure of this breath."

"waste!"

A low scolding came into the mind of the son of hell with the moan of a woman. The Three Palace Demon has never been a kind demon monarch. Its punishment came so quickly and so heavy.

The twisted and hideous son of hell was like being struck by lightning. It curled up on the ground in pain. The flesh and blood in its body were rolling, and it was transforming back and forth between blood and flesh and thick black smoke. The power in its body was undoubtedly out of control, because that power never really belonged to it.

The Three Palace Demon can give their "sons" the power, and it can naturally easily reclaim them or control them to punish those who are not doing things well.

"puff"

The son of hell opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood with internal organ fragments, but it did not dare to make even a slight sound, for fear of causing the Three Palace Demon to get angry again.

But to be honest, the Three Palace Demons also have their own considerations about Merlin's "missing".

Just as it will seize every opportunity to suppress other monarchs in hell, every monarch in hell is not a fuel-efficient lamp, they will fight back.

The Three Palace Demon estimated that Merlin's disappearance was probably the voluntary action of some other hell monarch. After all, every monarch wants to get a pure soul that Merlin has experienced death like that.

It's a rare item.

"Tear the scroll and release the magic!"

The Three Palace Demon commanded in the mind of the son of Hell:

"No one else can imagine what I can't get! Erase that soul! Tear it apart!"

"As for your order, my Majesty."

The son of Hell, who suffered a heavy blow, was humbly kneeling on the ground. After the will of the Three Palace Demon was silent, the son of Hell placed the scroll in his claws in front of his eyes. A trace of resentment flashed in his four dark red eyes. His claws used force, and the scroll written in the devil's words was completely torn apart in the thunderous lightning.

The torn parchment turned into a burning flame, jumping beside the son of hell, like a lit butterfly, which gradually faded after burning. This means that the contract was torn apart, and as the soul carrying the contract, Merlin's soul would also be completely torn apart by the power of the three palace demons because of the destruction of the contract.

That is definitely not a price that ordinary people can bear.

No matter where the guy hid, he was dead.

—-

In the wilderness dozens of kilometers away from Colson Farm, Merlin drove Lora with some anxiety and drove forward quickly in the wilderness.

The Phantom Stranger warned him that when midnight arrives, when the contract of the Three Palace Demons is established, he must stay away from mortals.

But Merlin didn't know how far these supernatural creatures mean, so Merlin decided to be as far away as possible from his family and other mortals.

After leaving the hospital, Merlin drove Lora all the way into the wilderness of Wisconsin. He stepped on the accelerator all the way, and Lora, who was repaired by him, did not disappoint him. This 1962 sports car seemed to have been reborn after replacing the engine and parts. It was extremely fast. After two hours of running, Merlin had already left Madison County.

He didn't know where he came, and he didn't care at all.

The watch was hung on the driving wheel by Merlin. Every time the minute and hour hand moved forward, Merlin felt the pressure suddenly increased.

Death may not be the most tragic punishment. Even though you know your death, you still have to wait for the arrival of that moment every minute. In other words, among all the waiting, waiting for death is always the most tragic.

"Click"

At this moment, the hour and minute hands suddenly closed, and Merlin also stepped on the brakes suddenly. With the friction between Lora's tires and the ground, Merlin stopped in the wilderness in the violent vibration.

On the watch in front of him, midnight had arrived.

He sat in the driver's seat, and the surrounding wilderness was silent, and only the moonlight shone on this cold place.

Merlin looked around and his breath became more rapid and his body stiffened. He closed his eyes and waited for fate to come.

It's like the bizarre stories in the superhero comics that Phil likes to read, just like those superheroes, getting weird power through strange ways.

Is it a flame?

Or smoke?

Or is it the pain of life worse than death?

Merlin didn't know, nor did he want to know.

But after waiting for several minutes with his eyes closed, Merlin found that nothing else happened except maintaining this position to make his shoulders a little sore.

He opened his eyes and looked at the watch in front of him. The interlacing of the hour and minute hands had reached 12:09. Almost ten minutes passed, but nothing happened.

Does this mean that he is safe?

Or is it that things have actually happened, but he just doesn’t know it?

But no matter what the situation was, this made Merlin breathe a sigh of relief.

He reached out and pulled the rearview mirror of the car downwards. He looked at the face in the mirror, black hair, black eyes, and slightly thin cheeks. It was himself, that was Merlin Riley.

He did not become a monster, nor was he killed by terrifying magic, he survived!

At this moment, Merlin's nervous heart suddenly relaxed.

He reached out his hand, picked up the cigarette box on the bridge, took out a cigarette, and lit it in the night. He twisted the newly replaced car radio station of Lora, and a new Jackson song rang in the wilderness under the night.

Merlin leaned against the driver's seat, put his left hand on the car door with his cigarette, and held the steering wheel with his other hand, and stepped on the accelerator.

Lola let out a roar, and the beautiful red convertible drew an arc in the wilderness. Merlin was about to return to Madison, where he was going to the hospital to accompany his injured father and tired mother.

Then prepare for the upcoming school season and go to New York to start your own life.

However

Just as Lora was about to accelerate, a dark red flame suddenly appeared on Merlin's two fingers holding the cigarette, and he swept the cigarette together with his fingers into the sudden burst of hellfire.

Noon
Chapter completed!
