Superman - 266 Chapter 266
It has been two weeks since the eight candidates of the Supreme Mage Contest came to the small town of Saint Van Gunsa.
Each of them began to act, and began to implement what they thought was “salvation.”
Loki, the princess of Asgard, the god of pranks and tricks, took her silly brother to find the mayor first.
“What? There is gold buried under the ground in the town of San Van Gonzal?”
The mayor met the two outsiders in his office, and then learned a surprise.
“Yes.”
Loki supported the tortoiseshell glasses on the bridge of his nose and said solemnly.
She changed her dress, wearing a black lace top hat and a pair of riding boots under her feet.
The half-high collar white shirt and suit trousers look particularly capable and heroic.
Of course, it also fits the image of a female scholar she designed.
“We are geologists at the Royal Academy of England. After careful investigation and repeated confirmation, we believe that there are huge gold deposits buried beneath the town.”
Seeing the suspicion on the mayor’s face, Loki’s tone was determined, and he easily pulled out a stack of drawings from the satchel hung around his waist, depicting the terrain and landforms near the town.
To win the trust of others, you have to act like a professional.
Loki thinks that her impersonation is all right.
The mayor’s distrust must come from Sol.
He is more like a bodyguard than a geologist.
“Mr. Mayor, you see, here and here, the gold that has not been discovered and mined is buried here.”
Loki stretched his fingers in two places and said in a low voice.
“I have explored the composition of the rocks around here, and verified the age. It can be initially determined that a rich gold mine is located underground in San Van Ganza.”
She was talking excitedly while dancing.
The look of expectation and the tone of excitement constitute superb acting skills.
Sol, who was almost standing aside, began to wonder if there really was a gold mine waiting for the residents of the town to mine.
“Then what do you want to do?”
Without suspense, the mayor was moved.
There has indeed been a gold rush in the western region, which has attracted an endless stream of adventurers for nearly a century.
With dreams of getting rich, they took the train and traveled long distances to this desolate land.
At that time, everyone said that gold was everywhere in the west.
They are exposed on the riverbed, and large pieces of gold can be found by simply digging.
However, in fact, not many people in the mighty gold rush team made their fortunes.
Those who really make the first pot of gold are actually businessmen who provide services to gold prospectors.
“We can provide professional advice, mining methods, and some machinery and equipment.”
Rocky acted very shrewdly, she made a condition: “But I need a lot of workers to carry out excavation work.”
“This is no problem. But how should the salary be settled?”
The mayor touched his beard.
He already believed the two outsiders in front of him.
Although the gold rush in the western region has long passed, people’s yearning for gold and the desire to become rich overnight have never cooled down.
If it is the underground of the small town of San Vangsa, there is really an undiscovered gold mine waiting to be mined.
Well, this is good news for everyone.
“This is exactly what I want to say.”
Loki smiled slightly, as if he had already considered it.
“The reason why I found Mr. Mayor, I hope you can be inclined in this regard and reach cooperation.”
“Workers’ remuneration is a huge expense. I have to purchase mining equipment and hire a professional team. It will inevitably consume a lot of funds in the early stage.”
The mayor frowned slightly, understanding what Loki meant, and asked uncertainly: “You mean, I pay the workers’ remuneration…”
“That’s right. This is a shareholding. For every ounce of gold mined in the future, there will be one-third of Mr. Mayor you.”
Loki said slowly.
Mr. Mayor hesitated, considered for a while, and finally nodded vigorously.
The temptation of Westerners to gold is always irresistible.
“San Van Gonzal has no gold.”
Walking out of the mayor’s office, Saul scratched his head and said.
He didn’t know why Loki bothered to weave a lie. Does this help pass the test?
“I know. But people crave gold.”
Loki put his hands behind his back, and the corners of his mouth slightly tilted and said, “The residents of the town of San Van Gonzal, they sold their souls to the devil and became fallen.”
“So, every night, those desires for violence, greed, and killing will prompt everyone to commit beastly sinful acts.”
“The test question set by Emperor Weishan is’save’. But what is salvation?”
“Let them be redeemed and ascend to heaven?”
“It’s impossible. It is difficult for the fallen who betrayed God to be forgiven.”
“A lot of wealth, a good life, a bright future… these are things that people yearn for.”
“I gave the people of San Van Gonzal a goal and let them have illusions. Isn’t this a kind of salvation?”
The princess of Asgard smiled slyly, Saint Van Gunza’s day and night are two sides.
She believes that as long as there is some way to calm the town residents during the day, they can be saved at night.
“Dreamland is the most satisfying.”
Loki murmured softly, with complicated emotions hidden in his eyes.
“However, they will always wake up.”
Saul said hesitantly.
Loki, who was walking in the front, raised his chin and said proudly: “Don’t forget, I am a master of illusion.”
…
…
“The dark dimension is a place of peace of mind, but also a place of eternity. There is no concept of time, and there is no death.”
Casillas is like a pious preacher. He distributes handwritten leaflets and keeps talking.
At the very beginning, the residents of the small town of Saint Van Gunsa maintained an attitude of rejection, ridicule, and contempt for this infidel.
But in the next few days, Casillas showed an extraordinary side.
He is like an ascetic, who has never eaten.
After five or six days, no drips entered.
Still energetic and ruddy complexion.
In addition to distributing leaflets every day to announce the doctrine.
Just sit at the entrance of the town and meditate.
People’s curiosity began to grow, they took the initiative to approach Casillas and asked about the dark dimension and Domam.
“Domam is the ruler of the dark dimension, and his followers will receive eternal life after returning to the embrace of darkness.”
Casillas said seriously.
He spread his hands, and a bright and warm light slowly emerged.
Seeing such a miraculous scene, those small town residents began to understand more deeply, and then some people became believers.
In this way, Protestantism appeared in St. Van Ganza.
Every day, Casillas brought an increasing number of believers to pray and preach together.
From the first twos and threes to the great vigor, it only took more than a week.
“You learned this in Kama Taj?”
Mordor stopped Casillas who was about to become a religious leader and asked coldly.
Behind his head, the triple halo was bright and dazzling.
The powerful aura of the legendary mage rises up.
“Spiritual faith is an indispensable thing for everyone.”
Casillas’s eyes have purple-black lines, and the energy of the dark dimension erodes his body, while also providing him with a steady stream of abundant magic power.
“When I was most helpless, I heard about the Supreme Master and Kama Taj, so I exhausted everything and went through trials and finally found the place of legend.”
“When Gu Yi showed those’miracles’ and pushed open the door of magic, I thought I had met the mentor of the soul and believed in everything he said.”
“But he is a liar, Mordo.”
Casillas looked at his former doormate from a distance, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
In Kama Taj’s admonition, it is expressly forbidden that occult wizards can only worship Emperor Weishan and not contact other dimensional demon gods.
Even using spells, such as Setorak’s Scarlet Chain, and the Ring of Raggardo.
It is only a temporary borrowing, rather than signing a contract and putting all your heart in trust.
“Gu Yi, he broke his oath.”
Casillas said angrily.
“Behind the bright, great, and selfless dedication mask of the Supreme Master, he is actually an old liar!”
Mordu tightened his lips, he didn’t believe what Casillas said.
A magic wand appeared suddenly, and wisps of electric light lingered, revealing an aura of destruction.
“What? Do you want to solve the problem by force?”
Casillas glanced at the increasingly dazzling triple halo, which was the manifestation of the spirit of the three great mages who signed a contract with Mordor.
He didn’t think he would lose to Mordor.
In fact, if it wasn’t Strange’s contractor who was too strong, he ended the second game in a simple way that was beyond everyone’s expectations.
Casillas was going to make a real settlement with Mordor at that time.
“I beat you upright in the hall, after passing the test of Emperor Weishan.”
Mordu was silent for a moment, then turned and left.
His grievances with Casillas will be settled in the future.
The top priority is to complete the last game and get the approval of Emperor Weishan.
Casillas used beliefs and religions to deceive and fool the residents of the small town of San Vanganza in order to “save” them.
In Mordu’s view, this is just a crooked way, not for long.
If you want to save those fallen souls, you can only rely on the right way.
“The incompleteness of the body does not mean that your mind and your soul are also incomplete.”
Mordo said so.
He learns from the Supreme Master, and pays patience, tolerance and kindness.
Try to save every poor person who is decadent and desperate, and tell them how the spirit controls the body.
Unbelievable medical miracles continue to appear in San Van Ganza.
The semi-paralyzed patient who could not stand on his legs was able to run.
The blind old man sees the light again.
Those who are frustrated, cheer up again.
Soon, Mordur was regarded as a master and gained a group of firm fans.
…
…
“Stephen, have you thought about how to practice your own’save’ way?”
Seeing Strange with a sad and clueless look, Luke quipped.
“Loki treats the residents of the town as a donkey, and hangs a carrot in front of them, using gold to drive the workers to work hard and work hard. As long as the beautiful dream is not broken, everything can be maintained.”
“Casillas became a religious leader, preaching, praying, and propagating doctrines every day. He told everyone that reality is full of birth, old age, sickness and death, but Domam’s dark dimension has immortality and tranquility.”
“Modo heals the physical disabilities of the townspeople while teaching them how to face life.”
“Doctor Voodoo, Mystery…everyone is actively completing the exam questions of Emperor Weishan.”
The more Strange listened, the closer his brows frowned.
After a while, he shook his head and said: “I don’t know what to do.”
“I can’t even save myself, so how can I save others.”
A touch of self-deprecating appeared on Strange’s face. He was once a blindly proud doctor who chased fame and wealth.
After a car accident threw him from the upper life of the elite class into the dust, he lost everything and became the bottom, before he began to reflect on his previous mistakes.
“I can’t understand them.”
Strange said so.
“The inhabitants of the small town of St. Van Gonzal, they were deceived by Mephisto to give up their souls.
“If I were the former Doctor Stephen Strange, I would feel that this is a price I should bear.”
“I will stand on a high place and laugh at their stupidity.”
Luke nodded. This is indeed a common style of the elite.
Make a mockery of the people who made mistakes, criticize them for their ridiculousness, and express their opinions by the way.
“But I am now Mage Strange, a guy who has suffered and found himself.”
“So, I should sympathize with them and want to save them.”
“But I have no idea what to do.”
Strange made no secret of his confusion. He didn’t think the competitors’ methods were effective.
The lies of deception will always be exposed. Blind belief is a rootless tree. Paying kindness without a care may not be able to harvest kindness…
It is so difficult to save a person.
How to save three thousand people?
“Can you teach me?”
Strange looked at his contractor.
“Frankly speaking, I have no experience in this area.”
Luke shrugged and saw a trace of disappointment in Strange’s eyes. He smiled and said, “But I have a suggestion that is not too good or too bad.”
“When you don’t know how to do it, you might as well put yourself in the position of the Supreme Master.”
Strange was silent for a long time, and his frowning brows slowly relaxed.
“I understand!”
He smiled.
“You mean to say, if you can’t use other means to save the sinful souls of those who have fallen.”
“It’s better to solve the problem directly from the source! I will go to Mephisto now!”
Strange took a deep breath, his eyes filled with determination.
From the hands of the old devil, take the contract of Saint Van Gunza back and liberate the souls of those sinners!
“Uh……”
Looking at Strange, who put on the magic resistance armor and opened the transmission channel, Luke was dumbfounded.
“Actually, I want to say… Forget it, this idea is correct.”
Anyway, the Supreme Mage who had not beaten Mephisto was not a qualified Supreme Mage.
