The Savior of American Comics? I'm the Subspace Evil God!

Chapter 177 Chapter 270 Chapter 271 Devouring or Multiverse or Ancient One
According to the original plan, as soon as Carl gets the [Immortality Trait], he will immediately control the "Ghost Yacht" and run away!
The main thing is a surprise.

There is no point in staying here and continuing to fight, except to die.

"Damn it! Don't even think about snatching the Dark Book from me!"

Kelly suddenly came to her senses, and a hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes.

Immediately, his white hands danced in front of him, and a terrifying dark magic power swept out.

Like a big hand, it tightly grasped the chain that was rapidly retreating in the air carrying the ancient parchment scroll, and began to wrestle with Carl in the air.

But who would have thought that Carl on the opposite side had no martial ethics at all.

He immediately shot two laser beams towards the direction where Kelly was.

boom--

At the critical moment, Kelly quickly cast a spell to create a black magic energy shield in front of her, which barely blocked the attack.

But in just a few seconds of delay, the ancient parchment scroll was brought to Carl by chains.

Seeing this, Kelly immediately looked anxious and shouted to Lilith, who was thinking about how to slowly torture Dracula to death.

"You useless idiot, forget about Dracula for now, why don't you help me get that page of the [Dark Book] back?!"

"Ah? Oh!"

Lilith reluctantly handed the head in her hand to a vampire believer for safekeeping, and then personally commanded the demon army to surround Carl.

As a [Demon Lord], even though her strength is far from the top level of [Beast], she still has considerable resistance to [Hellfire].

So compared to Clea, she is obviously more suitable to deal with Carl who has transformed into the [evil spirit form].

"Huh? Is this the true nature of the [Immortality Trait]?"

On the deck, Carl stared at the parchment in front of him, which looked like a page of magic recorded in it no matter how he looked at it, his eyes full of confusion.

Although I had been keeping a close eye on the movements at the altar.

But in order to avoid alerting the enemy in advance, he did not choose to invade the minds of the vampire guards, so naturally he could not hear the specific conversation between Lilith and others.

So for now, Carl doesn't know that this is a page in the [Book of Darkness].

but it does not matter.

In order to thoroughly understand the secret of the [immortality trait], he had just forcibly plundered the soul of the [original vampire] Varna into the [subspace].

We can interrogate you slowly later!

As for now, in order to avoid any further complications, it is better to put the [Immortality Traits] into the [Subspace] first.

Before this, facing the demon army swarming onto the island, Carl had already used his mind to control the "Ghost Yacht" and turned on the "autopilot mode".

That's right, all of Ghost Rider's mounts have the ability to attack independently and help their masters escape.

It’s so cool!

Boom boom——

With a loud roar of the engine, the "Ghost Yacht" shot forward like an arrow.

Carl on the deck stretched out a finger and gently pressed it on the ancient parchment scroll that was wrapped in layers of chains and held in mid-air.

In an instant.

A system prompt appeared before his eyes.

[A multiverse-level special energy substance [Dark God Book·Fragments] has been detected and can be consumed. Host, do you choose to consume it? ! !]

Σ(⊙▽⊙“a???

【Multiverse Level】???
Holy crap, [Immortality Trait] is actually a page from the legendary [Book of Darkness]?
This... this wave is really profitable! !

Even though Karl has always been calm, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed at this moment.

Because this was his first time touching upon the realm of the [multiverse].

Although it is just a fragment of a page of the [Book of Darkness].

But for Carl, this undoubtedly successfully broadened his horizons and allowed him to personally confirm the concept that "the multiverse really exists"!

"Yes!"

Without any hesitation, Carl gave the answer directly in his mind.

boom……! ! !
It seemed as if it sensed a dangerous aura.

An extremely terrifying dark power suddenly erupted from the ancient parchment, attempting to use it to resist Carl's devouring.

The incomparable torrent of energy surged like a huge wave, forming visible magical ripples in the air, sweeping in all directions.

At this moment, all areas within a radius of ten kilometers.

Both the land and the sea were shaking violently and fluctuating along with this pulse-like energy torrent.

But the next moment.

Everything came to a strange halt, and the world returned to peace.

The terrifying energy emitted by the ancient parchment was completely swallowed up by the [subspace].

Then, just like the [Mind Gem], it floated obediently in the dimensional space.

The text on the screen in front of Carl also changed at this time.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully devouring the multiverse-level special energy substance [Dark God Book·Fragments]! ! !]

[Warm Tip 1: Since the host currently only possesses a small amount of authority to actively distribute energy, this energy substance will remain in its original state and be directly placed in the subspace dimension for storage.]

[Warm Tip 2: The energy currently being devoured is approaching its upper limit. Please pay attention to increasing the level strength in time, otherwise, the energy will not be able to be devoured normally when it exceeds the upper limit.]

[Host, are you willing to abandon your physical body immediately, return to your exclusive dimension, and become the all-knowing and all-powerful Lord of that dimension? ! ! ]

"Is this truly worthy of being a multiverse-level [Dark Divine Book]? The energy contained in just one fragment is already reaching its limit..."

"It seems that after this mission is over, it's time to upgrade [Dimension Strength] to Lv5. At that time, the energy limit will automatically disappear."

"Huh? Wait a minute, the system prompt seems to have changed a bit?"

Carl was keenly aware of the subtle changes in the text.

This line of prompts was extremely familiar to him, as it had appeared before when he swallowed the [Mind Gem].

But precisely because it is familiar, it is often easier for people to subconsciously ignore it!

If Carl had not developed the good habit of "reading the text carefully and thoroughly" because he had been cheated several times when signing contracts in his "previous life", he would probably have ignored it this time.

Looking at the line of text on the screen, Carl's brain began to work rapidly.

The reason he was able to successfully "recover" a small amount of the [Dimension Lord's] authority without abandoning his physical body... was most likely related to [Dimension Strength]!

Especially after [Dimension Strength] is raised to Lv4.

Even the dimensional barrier between the real world and the [subspace] was successfully torn open.

This also makes the connection between Carl himself and the [subspace] become much closer invisibly.

If it is really as Carl guessed now.

Doesn't that mean that in the future, when the [Dimension Strength] is raised to a high enough level, he can "become a saint in the flesh"?

(＾＾●)

Very nice!!!

This speculation has not been confirmed yet.

But for Carl, it was a much bigger surprise than obtaining a page of the [Book of Darkness].

Because the [Subspace] not only concerns his life and death, but is also inextricably linked to his future growth. The current change undoubtedly proves once again how correct the decisions he made previously were.

Sure enough, a well begun is half the success!
But at this moment, a huge black magic energy shield suddenly fell from the sky, blocking Carl's escape route.

The "Ghost Yacht", which was in automatic driving mode, had no time to dodge and crashed head-on into the car.

boom--

The fierce collision caused most of the bow to cave in, which shows how powerful this black magic energy shield is.

It is comparable to the strongest defensive magic [Seraphim Shield] that Doctor Strange used on the abandoned [Titan] in [Avengers 3]!
However, the damaged part of the bow was restored to its original shape in the blink of an eye under the repair of [Hellfire].

But in this way, Carl's escape route was completely blocked by the enemy.

There is a black magic energy shield in front, and the [Demon Lord] Lilith leading the demon army chasing after her from behind, as well as the mysterious wizard hiding in the dark and never showing his face!

It seemed that Carl was in a desperate situation where he was almost dead.

"Ghost Rider? So... you're one of Mephisto's men?"

Two huge black bat wings grew out of Lilith's back, flapping continuously as she came closer, looking down at Carl, who was on fire on the deck.

"If you hand over the parchment scroll of Darkness now, I will let you go safely, regardless of past grudges, considering we are both members of the Hell Camp."

Apparently, Lilith mistook Carl for another Ghost Rider under Mephisto.

After all, her people had witnessed with their own eyes that the [Spirit of Vengeance] in Johnny Blaze's body was taken away by the [Beast], and then the [Beast] was killed by Spider-Woman.

So it’s normal to think this way now.

However, although Lilith has the support of Kelly and that mysterious organization.

But she still didn't want to take the initiative to provoke a big demon at the level of [Lord of Hell].

Especially Mephisto, who is known for his trickery and cunning.

Otherwise, one day in the future, you might accidentally get cheated by that old bitch!

How can you vomit out something you have just eaten?

Seeing that he was surrounded, there was no panic on Carl's face. Instead, he said with great momentum:
"I'm going to get the [Immortality Trait] today!!"

After saying this, before Lilith in mid-air could get angry, he pulled out a diamond-shaped pendant the size of a bell, held it in his hand, and shouted into the void in front of him:

"Ancient One, hurry up and come out to take over... ahem, these demons from Hell have crossed the line. Hurry up and bring the mages out to clean up the mess!!"

Because this time it is a multi-line and cross-dimensional battle.

In order to ensure that Selina and others' actions were foolproof, before the battle, Carl specifically instructed the four vendors and the Emperor to take special care of their respective chosen ones.

To prevent accidental casualties!

But this also means that Carl needs to face the powerful Lilith alone.

There is no doubt that without the help of the "Five Little Ones", Carl's current strength alone is not enough to defeat an enemy at the level of the [Demon Lord].

Even with the combined bonus of [Symbiote Suit] and [Spirit of Vengeance], it won't work!
The magic resistance of these two pieces of equipment is pitifully low...

But Carl didn't think there was anything shameful about it.

First of all, he never positioned himself as a "hero" who needed to charge into battle on the front line!
Compared to bloody battles, he actually prefers to sit behind the scenes, planning strategies, and defeating the enemy invisibly with ease. That sense of control and accomplishment!

At least that’s the case at this stage…

Only when there is an extreme shortage of manpower like now would he choose to join the game himself.

Secondly, there are many ways to deal with the enemy. Who says you can only do it yourself?

For someone like Carl who “begins with the end in mind”, no matter what method is used, as long as the goal can be achieved in the end, it is a victory!
So from the very beginning, he had actually made preparations for both scenarios.

1. Run if you can!
2. If you can’t run away… just call for help!
After all, if a useful tool like Gu Yi is not used at a time like this, should he be kept for childbirth... no, for the New Year?
Σ(°△°|||)︴

Hey, hey, hey, are you here to make fun of me?

And you're still calling me Gu Yi... I think you look like Gu...

Wait a moment.

Was he just talking about Ancient One?

Excuse me, is this the Sorcerer Supreme Ancient One from Kamar-Taj with a big bald head?
Lilith immediately looked around nervously.

I was afraid that a bald devil would suddenly jump out from somewhere in the next second.

But fortunately, after a quick look around, nothing unusual was found.

"Haha, it turns out it was just a bluff..."

Lilith narrowed her eyes slightly, then laughed in anger, "It's really ridiculous when you think about it. You're just a mere agent under Mephisto. How can you possibly command the Supreme Sorcerer?"

"Since you're unwilling to voluntarily surrender your [Immortality Trait], don't blame me for not telling you... huh??"

Before Lilith could finish her harsh words, sparks suddenly flew on the deck of the yacht and a golden portal appeared out of thin air.

Then, a bald woman wearing a yellow wizard robe and with her hands behind her back walked out with graceful steps.

Behind her, several figures appeared one after another.

Without exception, they are all masters of the secret arts of Kamar-Taj.

However, what surprised Carl a little was that he actually saw Wanda among the many mages?

Although the little girl had a solemn and alert look at the moment, her big watery eyes would occasionally glance at Carl, who had transformed into a "skeleton man."

I can confirm through eye contact that it’s my little Wanda!
Seeing this, Carl couldn't help but feel a little proud.

See how fast my little Wanda is progressing.

He has developed so quickly to the point where he can fight alongside Gu Yi!
This is definitely a magical genius.

"Ah this..."

Lilith was really dumbfounded this time.

No, you're just joking and trying to kill me!

Did they actually summon Ancient One?
I didn’t take you to play like this!

But what Lilith couldn't understand was.

When did the high and mighty [Supreme Sorcerer] become a tool that could be ordered around by even a demon agent?
Could it be that Mephisto had some unknown PY transaction with her in private?

Is this fucking unreasonable?

"Claire... huh?"

Lilith, whose momentum was obviously weakened, originally wanted to ask whether to fight or flee next, but when she turned around, she found that there was no one behind her.

Kelly's figure disappeared without a trace the moment before Ancient One appeared.

Damn?

What's the situation?
Why is the development of the plot completely different from what was expected?

Lilith's face looked as ugly as if she had eaten a fly.

Looking at Gu Yi standing on the deck below with a calm expression, he knew that this operation would most likely end here.

But for her personally, this goal has obviously been achieved.

It would be better to give Ancient One some face now, and then happily return to hell and torture Dracula slowly!

however.

Before she could speak, Kelly's voice rang in her mind.
