On the morning of October 31, 2010, the Holy of Holies in New York. "So, the Blood God just left without starting a fight?" Ancient Yi smiled and nodded: "He doesn't want to lose another clone, and I don't want to waste energy." "So is this the end of the matter?" Russell asked again. "it's over." "Okay." Russell said excitedly, "Is it time to settle my wages?" "Salary?" Gu Yi was confused. "The power of the Blood God." Russell reminded. "Didn't you take it yourself?" Gu Yi asked back. Russell had absorbed a lot of energy when he beat up Deacon Frost. "That's what I earned based on my own ability, not counting wages." Russell defended.
"Then how much do you want for wages?" Gu Yi laughed dumbly. "Yeah" Russell was silent, he didn't know how appropriate it was. "Mage, how much energy did you gain this time?" As he spoke, Russell released energy equivalent to one unit attribute point, indicating that it would be used as a measure. Gu Yi slowly stretched out two fingers. "Twenty million?" Russell asked. The panel absorbed about two layers of the energy transmitted to the earth by the Blood God, which amounted to about million. Did Gu Yi cheat some more from the Blood God? Otherwise, how could there be 20 million? Ancient Yi shook his head. "Two million? That's too little." Russell shook his head, thinking about not counting the wages. "Two small goals." Gu Yi said with a smile on his lips. Russell stood up abruptly and said in disbelief: "How is it possible? The total amount of energy transmitted by the Blood God to the earth is not that large. Master, you robbed it all, and it's not even 200 million." "What you saw and what the Blood God saw may not be true." Ancient Yi smiled meaningfully. Click! Click! The surrounding space cracked, and Gu Yi pulled Russell into the mirror space. "When the Blood God transmits energy to the earth, I use the mirror space to divert it." Gu Yi explained, pointing to the largest sea of blood in the mirror space, "Look, the energy there is what the Blood God transmits to the earth. total energy.” Russell looked around the mirror space. The nearest ones are several large and small seas of blood, and in the distance there are various energy groups with different attributes. I thought I would never meet a financial sponsor like the Blood God again for a long time, but I didn’t expect that the rich man would be by my side.
"Want it?" Gu Yi's plain voice was full of temptation in Russell's ears at the moment. "Yeah." Russell nodded unconvincingly. "That's all for you." "Huh?" Russell woke up, "What are the conditions?" Whatever is given, there must be a plan. His relationship with the Supreme Mage has not yet reached this level. "These energies are all accumulated by me over the years (by clever means of plundering), and they are also my main source of magic power in battles." Ancient One continued to explain. "As long as you become the Supreme Mage and take over from me to protect this world from being eroded by magic. This energy is of no use to me, so I can naturally give it to you." Is this feeding from the boss? Russell hesitated. "Are there any limitations to becoming a Sorcerer Supreme?" "Russell, the Supreme Mage has never had limits." Ancient One's voice was distant, as if he was remembering something, "This is a responsibility. If you accept it, you will indeed lose a lot." "Master, what have you lost?" Russell asked. "Freedom, and a good night's sleep." Gu Yi sighed slowly, "I carry this world on my back, year after year. Russell, you will become stronger than me and you will do better than me. For my burden as heavy as a mountain, the future will be for you, Maybe it's just a little bit of wind and frost. " "Master, are you trying to PUA me?" Russell said quietly. He believed Gu Yi's words but didn't listen. Ancient One ignored the question: "There is no need to make a choice now, Russell. You can think about it slowly." His talent is too restrained for magical life. Especially to restrain those dimension lords who are mediocre in strength and rely on endless energy to cheat. Russell, who walked out of the Holy of Holies, suddenly remembered a question. Where is my salary? ! Use the massive energy and the position of the Supreme Mage to confuse my mind and take the opportunity to waste my wages. The cunning Ancient One Mage! With his thoughts on his mind, Russell returned to the bookstore. Saw an interesting scene. George Stacey from the 404 universe and Stacey from the 404 universe were staring at each other.
Today is Halloween, which happens to be Sunday again. George came to the bookstore to invite the boss here to a community party to celebrate Halloween together. "Hello, little girl, although it's very presumptuous, I still want to ask, do you know Helen? Oh my god, you and Helen look so alike when they were young." After looking at each other for a long time, George came to his senses first and asked first. "Helen? She is my aunt." Oh my god, is Helen still alive in this world? In Universe 65, Helen died when Gwen was a child. "George, George Stacey." George took the initiative to extend his hand, "Helen has never told me that she has a niece who looks so similar." Gwen was a little at a loss. After hesitating for a moment, she still held George's hand: "Gwen, Gwen Stacey." "Oh my gosh, your name sounds the same as my daughter's," George exclaimed, "but she's only 8 years old." After saying that, George looked at Gwen carefully and praised: "You are so beautiful. I hope little Gwen will be as beautiful as you when she grows up." "I believe it will, George." Russell came closer and said. "Thank you, Russell." George smiled and responded, "By the way, are you coming to the Halloween party tonight?" Gwen's eyes lit up when she heard about the party. At the party, she could meet her mother Helen - the Helen of this universe. "Of course." Looking at Gwen's expression, Russell readily agreed, "Gwen and I will be there on time." "Okay, then I'll go notify others." George left the bookstore. When George walked away, Gwen asked Russell, "Do you know George?" Russell retracted his gaze, looked at Gwen and nodded, "Yes." "Can you tell me about George? And his wife, Helen." Gwen said eagerly. She was eager to understand the situation of the Stacy family in this universe. "Gwen, why don't you go and see it yourself?" Russell said meaningfully. He had said long ago that Gwen should see a psychiatrist! Heart disease needs heart medicine. Let Gwen get in touch with George's family, which is good for her mental health. Russell and George have known each other for a long time. During the investigation, George discovered that Russell appeared at gang fights and various murders many times.
This was obviously abnormal. Initially, George suspected that Russell was not only a brutal gangster, but also a serial killer. But after investigation, these cases were independent cases, not serial cases, and the murderer was someone else. Russell was just a passerby who "happened" to appear at the scene. Sometimes, Russell would reveal some information to George. After a while, Russell and George became familiar with each other. As for the real purpose of Russell's appearance in these occasions, it was naturally for the energy after the death of the evil.
