Beast Taming: Abyssal Descent

Chapter 256: Recruitment and Schemes


Blood flowed like a stream from Carter Shire, his body full of transparent holes.

Grimacing, he lay on the ground with a face full of despair.

Who did he offend?

Right from the start, his house was demolished, not to mention machine guns greeting him without a word.

Even though he won't die, it hurts!

And it's daytime now, the residual power of the Spirit of Vengeance within him can't be used.

No martial ethics!

This is truly a lack of morality!

"Who are you all?"

Carter Shire searched his mind thoroughly, unable to figure out whom he had offended.

For the past hundred years, other than Mephisto, the Hell Demon King, he's been honestly guarding cemeteries, never offending anyone.

Looking at these tall robots, it must be the handiwork of a major force.

He's just an elderly person hiding in a cemetery, completely out of touch with such an existence.

Carter Shire racked his brains but couldn't understand whom he had offended.

At this moment, Mo Qingchen directly used Telekinesis to drag himself from the sky.

"Carter Shire, you've been beaten like a brush, yet you're still alive. Truly worthy of the previous generation's Evil Spirit Knight; why do you think I've come to see you?"

Ten meters away from Carter Shire, Mo Qingchen spoke while taking a shovel handed over by a Transformer.

"For the Sanctum Contracts, but that thing is what the Demon needs. Are you Mephisto's lackey?"

Carter Shire said, looking at him with disgust.

"Tch~ A demon who can't even enter Earth with his true form, you really think highly of him.

As for the Sanctum Contracts, they're somewhat useful. Perfect to use as bait.

But I'm more interested in you; how about you show me, a grand transformation into a Skull?"

Inside the Sanctum Contracts are the souls of three thousand Fallen.

That thing really isn't useful to him, but it can be given to the Female Demon Beast or Kasi.

Demons, isn't it normal to manipulate souls?

Isn't it also normal for a Witch Demon to manipulate souls?

And the residual power of the Spirit of Vengeance within Carter Shire, although it's not much, it can still release Hellfire.

Johnny, the newly awakened Evil Spirit Knight, can't yet freely control the power of the Spirit of Vengeance within him.

To research Hellfire safely, it must be from Carter Shire.

The main thing is, Hellfire can burn souls, combined with the Evil Spirit Knight's Eye of Judgment, even Mo Qingchen wouldn't want to try it.

"You exposed the Sanctum Contracts, aren't you afraid Mephisto will come looking for it? He's a Hell Demon King, insidious and cunning, with countless ways to get what he wants."

Carter Shire said through clenched teeth, with no part of his body not hurting.

"I said Mephisto's true form can't enter Earth.

What he left on Earth is just a few projections with no significant power.

Frankly, if you could regain your peak strength, Mephisto's projections wouldn't be able to handle you.

That's why he's left you alone for a hundred years.

Do you really think a Hell Demon King wouldn't be able to find someone who made a contract with him?"

But having made a contract with Mephisto, his soul was sold to the other side, so Carter Shire couldn't attack Mephisto.

But even though he can't attack Mephisto, the latter can't do anything to him either!

That's why, after stealing the Sanctum Contracts over a century ago, Mephisto didn't come to forcibly take them.

Of course, Mephisto certainly has plans, like using those contracts to deal with his rebellious offspring, Witch Heart Demon.

The Hell Demon King spawned an offspring who doesn't listen, and the most crucial part is, the Witch Heart Demon possesses some authority of the Hell Dimension.

This is absolutely not what Mephisto wants to see, so after a century of scheming, wanting to eliminate the Witch Heart Demon isn't impossible.

Anyway, Mo Qingchen knows the Witch Heart Demon was ultimately burned alive by the Evil Spirit Knight's Eye of Judgment combined with Hellfire, after devouring the souls of three thousand Fallen in the Sanctum Contracts.

"Is that so? Who exactly are you? Why do you know so many things?"

"Who I am isn't important; what's important is where you will go."

Does Carter Shire not want to resist?

How can that be!

But surrounded by ten Transformers, with ten machine guns pointed at him, even if he can't be killed, he can be hurt and rendered powerless with ease.

"I don't have many years left after all, and after I die, going to Hell and being tormented by Mephisto is my fate."

Over a century, the power of the Spirit of Vengeance within him has weakened increasingly, now akin to a candle in the wind.

When the power of the Spirit of Vengeance completely disappears from him, his end will come.

No matter how unwilling he is, what can he do?

His soul was long sold to Mephisto before becoming the Evil Spirit Knight.

His decayed body now barely clings to existence, relying solely on the power of the Spirit of Vengeance.

"I have a path for you. It's just whether you want to walk it."

Saying this much to Carter Shire, isn't it just to break his psychological defenses, and then recruit him for research?

"Heh, my body is already decayed beyond repair. Once the power of the Spirit of Vengeance is gone, I'll die in a few days. Do you think you can prolong my life?"
