"[The devil who accepted the deal can only be seen by the one who made the wish,]" "Daji" leaned sideways and whispered in Murdock's ear: "[But you should be able to too?]"
"Yes." Murdoch nodded slightly.
When Van Helsing patted the table, ice blue ripples re-outlined the table and chairs, and at the same time, a demon with as many "colors" as "Daji" appeared on the gorgeous high-backed chair.
What the two have in common is that they are "invisible under normal circumstances", but "Daji" is obviously superior.
Now is obviously not the time to pursue this legendary vixen's word games. Since "beasts" are a group rather than an individual case, killing one of them is meaningless in eradicating the immortality of the "Hand" ninjas. Their original plan
, "Call the devil out and start fighting directly" has been invalidated and needs to be implemented in PnB.
"This stronghold was raided by 'superheroes', and the ninjas suffered heavy losses." Van Helsing pressed his hand on the parchment with a ferocious expression: "Whether it is for revenge or self-protection, the 'Hand' needs to obtain more
Strength, put forward your conditions."
Based on the characteristics of this ritual prop, what Van Helsing wrote was "I want to see the devil named 'Beast'". If you start fighting directly, this sentence will have no effect, but if an accident occurs, it can be interpreted as "
Asking for help."
Of course, given that demons are masters of lies and deceit, and if you lie to them, you are likely to be discovered, all of Van Helsing's words are "facts."
This Hand's stronghold was indeed raided and suffered heavy losses, but they didn't say that they did it themselves.
The most critical point is that many unruly "Universe Demon Gods" and "Lords of Dimensions" are secretive when they project their power on the earth, for fear of being caught, so this "ritual prop" needs to be used to connect with reality.
As a clan of "beasts", it is definitely impossible to carry out a more thorough inspection and confirmation on the reality level.
The people present included "Mrs. Gao" who clearly belonged to the "Hand Club", and two "thugs" who were full of violence and did not look like "decent people" in any way. This rhetoric was flawless and reasonable.
"[I sympathize with your situation very much,]" the demon who called himself Kyle Rayner - I don't know if it is his real name - seemed not to notice the abnormality and shook his head and said: "[But 'ordinary people can also use' and 'can
The power of "rapid spread" is already at its limit. Unless you plan to be targeted by the "Supreme Mage", then we will deny any transactions with the Hand.】"
This guy is a newbie, Murdoch decided.
Meaninglessly expressing "individual" emotional tendencies, easily exposing one's own internal name and bottom line on transaction details, showing fear of a certain existence, and at the same time not raising any topics that are helpful in closing a deal.
If this is a performance to make the transaction partner relax its vigilance, it also falls into the category of using excessive force.
As "Batman", he has encountered real demons and guys who are more like demons than demons. If it were them, he would say:
Oh! That sounds really bad. I guess the little tricks that can only transform ordinary people into undead ninjas are no longer useful? And I happen to have some good things here that can solve the troubles you are encountering, and the "herd" doesn't even work.
You know the kind, but the price you need to pay may be a little higher than expected, point, point, hehehe
"..." Murdoch pinched his forehead hard and wiped away the "clown" that almost materialized in front of his eyes. They were so familiar with each other because of their years of confrontation that he could easily guess what the guy would say in this situation.
talk.
In this way, the monster who became the "Laughing Bat" in the comics after killing the Joker should be "imitating" the Joker with his own logic.
How stupid.
The opposite of "Batman always has a plan" is "The Joker can always do something unexpected". Even if he has had many confrontations with the Joker, he can guess his next move after each incident.
Still no more than 30
The "Laughing Bat" conducts "simulations" by assuming how the "real clown" would react to the things he encounters, which means that he can predict the "clown's" actions 100%.
Oh, "Batman who can accurately predict the Joker's behavior" and "Joker whose behavior can be accurately predicted by Batman", what kind of fantasy characters are these? Not to mention that they think they are "integrated" very well.
Good "The Laughing Bat".
He is just a monster who is neither Batman nor the Joker, and he also commands more monsters who think they are Batman.
"[Oops]" "Daji" sighed inexplicably, and took half a step back towards Murdoch very deliberately: "[I regret bringing you here, how could someone have an 'epiphany' without any warning.
]"
What? Don’t vixens even know how to think?
"【It will not happen】"
Murdoch didn't know how to respond to this blatant admission that he was brainless.
"[Although you are blindfolded, your words are written on your face]" "Daji" said happily.
"Do you think I was thinking 'could she read minds'?"
"【Is not it?】"
For different reasons, Murdoch and "Daji" fell silent together. In the ceremony hall, only the voice of Van Helsing negotiating with the devil echoed.
"——In short, the 'Hand' needs more power than the 'Immortal Ninja', no matter the cost," Van Helsing said: "If you are afraid of being discovered, you can add a clause. No member of the Hand who accepts the power can use it.
The source speaks volumes.”
He is extremely skilled in pretending to be a member of the "Hand", and he may have done similar things in his daily life, such as sneaking into gangs where vampires may exist and killing them from the inside.
"[I can give you a new ability to strengthen your strength by stimulating evil thoughts in your heart. As a gangster, you must have a lot of malice, right?]" the devil said: "[Its expressions are different, and it will not spread its influence.
Ordinary people are alerted. It seems more like the user has established contact with an evil cosmic demon in some way and accidentally lost control, and the price is...]"
"The price doesn't matter," Van Helsing interrupted with a wave of his hand: "The 'immortal ninjas' in other strongholds should still worship you, just follow the thread of faith and find them."
He quickly wrote a new contract on the parchment and handed it to the devil. The signature was "Mrs. Gao" that several people had agreed upon before.
Now, no matter what pitfalls there are in the contract, it has nothing to do with our side. The only uncertainty is whether the codename "Mrs. Gao" is qualified to sign this contract on behalf of the "Hand".
"[Then, the contract is established.]" The demon picked up the parchment and looked at it casually, then disappeared from the high-backed chair.
Oh, it's unnecessary to worry. Although he doesn't look very smart, he is a devil after all.
