American comics: May the Holy Light deceive you

Chapter 76 The World of LEGO Bricks - 3

After watching the video played by Vega, Iron Man immediately received a distress call from Nick Fury.

The Avengers didn't dare delay and rushed to provide support, leaving only Loki, who was an intern, and Black Widow to help Vega heal Ghost Rider Robbie Reyes in the Mirror Dimension.

In reality, the two of them couldn't help at all. The real purpose of keeping the two of them around was to monitor and guard against the mysterious Vega. However, saying that they were helping made it easier for both sides to accept.

Vega once again pinned Robbie Reyes to his feet, absorbing hellfire as he asked Black Widow, "Loki is an Avenger too?"

Loki quickly answered, "Yes, yes, I'm an Avenger too."

Loki was incredibly obedient. His limited magical abilities were only good enough to bully brutes like Thor, but they were no match for Vega.

The video showed the fate of the Vega world's version of himself who launched a nuclear missile and led the Chitauri to invade Earth; he didn't want to follow in that guy's footsteps.

Black Widow: "He's an intern, and it's his first day."

Then, Black Widow said that Loki had sneaked into the Avengers Tower vault that morning, played tricks on them, and then surprisingly asked to become an Avenger.

Vega understood: "What trick are you trying to pull now?"

Although their contact was brief, Vega could tell that Loki was no pushover.

Black Widow was also staring at Loki; this was something they both wanted to know.

Loki looked wronged and aggrieved: "You have misunderstood me too much. I have truly realized my mistakes, so I plan to turn over a new leaf and become a hero who helps everyone, to make up for the mistakes I made in the past."

"Heh." Vega chuckled, and Black Widow couldn't help but roll her eyes. Nobody would believe such nonsense.

Seeing that Loki was unwilling to tell the truth, Vega did not force him. In any case, if something went wrong, it would be none of his business. He would try to salvage the situation if he could, and if he couldn't, he would just leave.

A few minutes later, Robbie Reyes's hellfire was completely drained, and he, who had been cursing incessantly, also passed out.

"Let me see what you're made of," Vega said, reaching his right hand into the unsealed cylinder atop Robbie Reyes's cylindrical head and pulling out a red sphere burning with a faint flame from his seemingly empty body.

Interestingly, the blocky humanoids in this world appear to be hollow inside, but regardless of whether they have hair or helmets covering their heads, no foreign objects can enter their bodies through the unsealed cylinders.

Moreover, the block people do not feel that there is nothing in their bodies, and they still need to eat, drink, and excrete. They still have physiological needs, and they can get pregnant, and experience birth, aging, sickness, and death.

If possible, Vega would like to stay in this world a little longer and study this amazing world more thoroughly.

The red sphere is the core of the Spirit of Vengeance. After Vega grabbed it, it became very unruly, with raging hellfire surging from it and quickly spreading from Vega's right hand to his entire body.

"Still not behaving yourself." Vega sneered, mobilizing his bronze armlet to absorb the hellfire, then channeling his powerful mental energy into the red sphere, beginning to peruse the memories of the Spirit of Vengeance.

This vengeful spirit is called Elimorro. It was created by God and cast into the earth after the Great Flood to oversee the sinful nature of mankind and to avenge the innocent who were killed by sin.

The second batch of vengeful spirits has one unique characteristic: they can devour each other to become more perfect and powerful.

This batch of vengeful spirits all started from the same point, but Elimoro was unlucky. It was placed in a very remote place. It diligently performed its duties and was then targeted by several vengeful spirits that had devoured multiple companions, as well as Mephisto.

The initial vengeful spirits were simple, but they needed to merge with human hosts. Under the influence of each host, they gradually changed.

The host, who did not want to die, and Elimoro began to search for ways to become stronger. At first, they were law-abiding and measured, but as they faced life-or-death crises time and time again, they broke through their bottom line in order to survive.

Once it happens, it happens again. The bottom line that we hold firm to keeps getting lower and lower until it finally reaches the abyss of hell.

Then, he was captured by Mephisto...

Mephisto found this vengeful spirit utterly repulsive. After studying it for a while, he marked it with his own symbol and then threw it back to Earth.

Elimoro hated Vega because it fell into depravity after countless unsuccessful prayers to God and to the archangel Randkiel, who governs the spirits of vengeance, for salvation, leaving it with no other option.

It didn't think it was wrong; it just wanted to live. Is wanting to live wrong?

Survival is the most basic instinct of every living being, so how could it be wrong!

It was just trying to survive. It didn't betray God; it was God who abandoned it and pushed it into hell with his own hands!

This wasn't what angered it the most.

In the 18th century, the Puritan priest Basto Kell became a believer in Mephistopheles. His wife discovered the secret, and he branded her a witch, tied her to a cross, and burned her alive.

His wife cursed him before she died, and the curse attracted the Furies of Olympus. In order to defeat the Furies, he sacrificed his son Norbert Kell to Mephisto.

Norbert Kyle possessed the power of the Medallion of Power, which Mephisto transformed into the Ghost Warrior. Norbert Kyle then defeated the Furies for the sake of the townspeople, and in the process, saved his father, who had burned his mother alive and had been abusing him.

How did Basto Kyle repay his son? He actually planned to have Norbert Kyle eat his own son, his grandson!

Norbert Cal chose to commit suicide to protect his son. Mephisto wanted to take Norbert Cal's soul, but then the archangel Uriel intervened to stop Mephisto, even offering his own soul in exchange for Norbert Cal's.

Because of this incident, Elimoro thoroughly hated God and all angels, which is why it went berserk after realizing that Vega was an angel and that he carried the aura of God.

"Remedios really is God..." Vega was overjoyed after reviewing Elimoro's memories.

He was unmoved by Elimoro's plight, but he agreed with Elimoro's desperate choice to survive, saying that he might have made the same choice in his situation.

Of course, while he agreed, he wouldn't express it, nor would he let Elimoro off the hook.

It's not because he's a superhero, nor because he's God's minion; it's simply that wrong is wrong, and wrongdoing must be punished...
