Chapter 1 I need your soul!

Chapter 1 I need your soul!

A nursing home in the 7th block on the outskirts of New York City.

The door of the house opened, and a Chinese teenager with a well-dressed, handsome appearance and pale green eyes walked in.

"Professor, I brought what you wanted."

A photo and two bank notes worth 300,000 US dollars were placed on the hospital bed. The old man picked up the note and checked the name of the head of the household, and then placed the photo in his palm, looking at the lady with a kind smile, his eyes were extremely complicated. Emotions.

The young man took the towel and wiped the tears from the corner of the old man's eyes, and set aside, keeping silent.

Time was lost every second, and after a long time, with a lonely sigh, the old man came to his senses.

"After I die, please put the photo on my body."

"Yes, do you have any other wishes?"

"No more."

The old man shook his head and said, "Young man, thank you for doing so much for me. Now, I can make your request. What do you want from me?"

"soul."

"soul?"

"Yes, soul."

The young man raised his head, his pale green eyes exuding a strange glow.

"Professor Landos, I need your soul,"

The old man laughed loudly. It seemed that he had encountered a very interesting thing, and his tone became cheerful.

"So, I'm making a deal with the devil. I don't know what your real name is, Lucifer? Or Beelzebub?"

"No, my name is Luke, not a demon." The young man raised his palm, and a green flame appeared in his palm. "I'm just a human with special abilities."

The dark green flame is like the fire of the undead from hell. It is burning, but it exudes a chill that penetrates the soul. The old man was silent for a long time before he reluctantly smiled.

"Superhuman?

I met when I was working in Norway. It was a beautiful girl with silver hair, who could make ice out of thin air, even a small blizzard, how about you? What is your ability? "

"Swallow the soul, digest the soul, acquire memory, strengthen oneself."

"Good evil power!"

The old man sighed, but his expression did not show much fear. For a dying person, there is nothing worthy of awe, but more curiosity.

"Why did you choose me? An old man with advanced liver cancer can't bring you anything!"

"This is an experiment and a helpless move."

"You can tell me about it!"

"Of course, if you want to listen."

Luke moved a chair to sit in front of him, and said in a flat voice, "My ability has a shortcoming. While absorbing the soul of others, it will also be affected by negative desires.

Before you, I absorbed the souls of three people in total,

The first is a professor of history who threw the corpse into the wilderness. His soul is full of desire for revenge. To get rid of the entanglement, I spent a few months finding the murderer;

The second is the scientist who was shot. The tyrannical mood was buried deep in the soul and transferred to me. The experience during that time was very bad;

To prevent similar incidents from happening, I made a very rigorous selection for the third goal and finally chose Frank Tours. "

The old man frowned, "Governor?"

"Yes, the former governor."

Luke sighed, "Facts have proved that this is a very stupid decision. Who would have thought that Mr. Governor, a fair and strict governor, was a sex maniac in his bones? To get him out, I had to work hard and make various girlfriends for many years. The accumulated good reputation is ruined like this."

The old man said weirdly, "It doesn't sound like a bad thing."

Luke shrugged, "My grandfather is an old-fashioned person. Besides, I'm only seventeen years old. Doing too much of that kind of thing is not conducive to physical development."

"Makes sense!"

The old man laughed, "So, you leave the fourth goal to me, a good person without any bad habits."

Luke shook his head, "I said, this is an experiment."

"The past few experiences have made me understand a truth. No matter whether it is good or bad, there are hidden desires in my heart. Desires cannot be avoided. Only the soul without regrets can be chosen."

"Soul without regrets!"

The old man murmured to himself, and there was a sudden flash in his eyes, "You help me fulfill my wish so that I can die without regret so that I can be swallowed and digested by you?"

"Yes."

"Sounds fair?!"

"Thank you for thinking that way."

Luke adjusted the position of the pillow to make the old man more comfortable, "Are there any other last wishes? If so, please let me know and I will help you achieve it."

The old man looked at the ceiling quietly and then said weakly after a while.

"How long can I live?"

"According to your current state of life, at most two minutes."

"Could... be longer."

"Sorry, I don't have that ability."

The old man was silent, and his pale cheeks showed despair for the first time. Fortunately, he was mature enough.

Quickly press down the emotions,

"Thank you for telling me so much."

"It should be."

Luke got up and took the old man's thin palms.

"Nice to meet you, Professor Landos."

The old man gave him a complicated look, closed his eyes, and died.

"Goodbye, professor."

Luke bowed, a dark green flame burst out of his palm pulled out a broken soul, and the boy opened his mouth and swallowed the soul into his abdomen.

Massive memory fragments rushed in the joy of childhood, the freedom of youth, the secret love in college, the hesitation after graduation, the helplessness at the wedding, and the enthusiasm for science. Of course, the most important thing is endless knowledge.

Nuclear physics, electronic engineering, elemental chemistry, cytology... The old man's lifelong learning has become Luke's nourishment. What makes people happy is that, except for the regret that cannot be erased, there is no other desire in the memory.

"Thank you for your gift."

Luke bowed again, stuffed the photo into the old man's palm, and called the funeral home.

To make the old man not so lonely, Luke specially arranged for six Ghanaians to carry the coffin. With a cheerful atmosphere bouncing all the way, Frank J. Landos finished the last journey of his life.

"Walk all the way, Professor."

Luke put down a bunch of lilies and turned away.

Out of the cemetery, Charlie Will walked up to him.

"Boss, the director of the Wayne Group and the CEO of the Luther Group have called one after another, hoping to talk to you about the acquisition."

Luke took off his dress and threw it in the car.

"Tell them to talk again in three months."

"The Wayne Group is willing to bid fifty million," paused, and added, "Euro."

Luke put on his sunglasses and smiled faintly, "Charlie, what did I tell you on the first day at work."

Charlie was startled and said sternly,

"Understood, boss, I will take care of it."

"Now it's right."

The silver-white Ferrari spewed thick blue flames, flying away in the envy and jealous eyes of passers-by.
