------------------------------------------------
Karl prepared to use the power of the Space Stone to forcibly help the Warp devour other dimensions.
If his wild idea could be realized, then it would mean that even without fully restoring all the authority of a Dimension Master, Karl would possess the strength to annex other dimensions.
This way, he could naturally advance his plan to the next stage… which was to initiate the war against other dimensions!
Of course, all of this was still in the future.
After all, the Five Little Ones still had a lot of room for improvement in their strength, and the military forces within the Warp also needed to be supplemented as much as possible.
However, fortunately, Karl now had plenty of preparation time.
After successfully transmitting the relevant memories into Wanda's mind, she successfully opened a portal leading to the Vatican Church's secret dungeon.
Daimon Hellstorm went ahead to the prison to persuade his sister.
Then Karl had Wanda open another portal directly to Necrodamus's Base.
Frank and Logan Howlett escorted Necrodamus there to scour for valuable items.
Anyway, after tomorrow, this Base would be abandoned.
Perhaps the magic books Necrodamus collected could even help Wanda improve her strength?
Next, after Ragnar retrieved all his forging tools from the volcano, Karl sent him to Sokovia and instructed Zemo to arrange his residence and other matters.
Karl believed that with the addition of this dwarf blacksmith, it wouldn't be long before the Hyperspace Group's weaponry and equipment would be elevated to a whole new dimension.
The future was promising!
...
Vatican Church.
Secret Dungeon.
"So… that is to say, big brother, you are now that man's subordinate?"
Satana Hellstorm blinked her large, succubus-like eyes and asked curiously, "And, he's not just an ordinary human, but a… Dimensional God???"
If her hands weren't currently chained by enchanted iron, this dignified Daughter of Satan would surely be like a spectator, grabbing some melon seeds, sitting on a small stool, and listening with great interest to such a bizarre and convoluted story.
"Uh… you could say that."
Daimon Hellstorm rubbed his forehead helplessly, "But that's not the point, the point is you must now return to our bastard father's side, then monitor his every move, and help Boss get the Flame Legion's movements in advance."
"It's just that I'm a little worried about you…"
"Hehehe, you're afraid I'll betray your plan to Father, are you?" Satana Hellstorm immediately let out a charming, bell-like laugh.
"No."
Daimon Hellstorm shook his head firmly, "As your brother, I actually hope you never get close to him!"
"Because I know too well what he wants to do to us…"
"But Satana, the current situation is crucial for the two of us; we've finally waited for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If we don't seize it, I'm afraid we'll never have another chance to gain freedom… let alone take revenge on that bastard!"
A hint of imperceptible sadness flashed in Satana Hellstorm's eyes.
But it wasn't disappointment in her brother.
Rather, it was disappointment in her own fate and that terrible father.
"But… I don't want to go."
Satana Hellstorm's tone carried a hint of complaint, "Perhaps for us, accepting punishment in this godforsaken place is the best choice."
"You… don't you want to settle scores with that old man?"
Daimon Hellstorm painstakingly persuaded, "Although I can't yet confirm whether Boss is truly a Dimensional God, I personally saw him 'resurrect' a dwarf blacksmith."
"Sister, an opportunity like this will never appear again; how can you give up so easily?"
"Have all the hardships and torments we've endured over the years just been for nothing?"
Satana Hellstorm still maintained a calm expression on her face, as if she hadn't been moved by her brother's passionate and stirring words at all, tilting her head and asking in return:
"Big brother, I really want to know, if I go and never return, will you shed tears for me?"
"Uh? Don't worry, no matter what, I will definitely come to save you… I will never leave you there alone."
Daimon Hellstorm swore solemnly.
"Hehehe…"
Satana Hellstorm's bell-like laughter rang out again, and she pouted teasingly, "Big brother, you look just like a scumbag among humans right now."
"Although I really want to help you, I have no interest in this matter at all, so…"
Before she could finish her sentence, Karl's voice rang out from the side.
"Ms. Satana, you can rest assured about this; I am absolutely not sending you back to your death."
Satana Hellstorm's naturally enchanting beautiful eyes narrowed slightly like a cat's, as if she had discovered some interesting prey, locking onto the handsome man stepping out of the portal opposite her without blinking.
"Sir, although I admire your courage, there's a huge flaw in your plan… What if Heaven doesn't believe your explanation and refuses to send troops to ambush the Flame Legion?"
Karl smiled confidently, then turned his gaze to Daimon Hellstorm, "My words might not be very convincing, but what if all this comes from the mouth of a Son of Hell?"
Both the Hellstorm siblings' eyes lit up upon hearing this.
Yes, in such matters, what could be more convincing than the words of a Son of Hell?
"Your father is trying to break the delicate balance maintained by the Truce Agreement through some small actions, and use this as an opportunity to unify all Hell Dimensions, thereby becoming the true Lord of Hell, Satan!"
"I have to say, he planned it very thoroughly; both the timing and the chosen person are flawless… so the probability of success is extremely high."
Karl looked at Satana Hellstorm with a half-smile, "Guess, once he successfully occupies the human world, will he come to trouble you two siblings?"
"And by then, who do you expect to jump out and stop his evil deeds?"
After just a few short sentences, the cynical smile on Satana Hellstorm's face disappeared, and her charming eyes scrutinized Karl, "Are you really a Dimensional God?"
Karl didn't speak, just nodded slightly.
"Then… do you really dare to act against my father? My father's strength is very strong, you know."
"How will you know if you don't try?"
The corner of Karl's mouth gradually curved into an arc, "This action is a good opportunity to test whether the weapon crafted with sin silver can kill Fallen Angels."
"If it can, then it means it can also be used against your father."
Karl did not hide anything about this matter.
Because, being skilled in negotiation, he deeply understood that to move someone who initially refused to cooperate in the shortest time, one must first pinpoint their pain point.
And for this half-demon sibling pair, the thing they most looked forward to was probably how to take down their scumbag father.
After a slight pause, Karl asked with a strong sense of temptation, "Ms. Satana, have you never thought of becoming… the Queen of Hell?!"
Satana Hellstorm's eyes immediately lit up.
But it wasn't because she was interested in becoming the "Queen of Hell."
It was because… she stubbornly believed that the man in front of her seemed to be… flirting with her?!
Interesting!
Truly interesting, isn't it?
Man, you have successfully caught this young lady's attention!
"No, I don't want to."
Satana Hellstorm shook her head with captivating grace, then looked at Karl with alluring eyes.
"Rather than becoming the Queen of Hell, I now want to know, if I am sacrificed by my father, will you… avenge me?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
Looking at the half-demon woman whose demeanor suddenly shifted, Karl secretly congratulated himself for not having Wanda accompany him just now.
Otherwise, it would probably turn into a love triangle scene right now!
Don't let Wanda's usual clever, cute, witty, and obedient demeanor fool you... that's only towards Karl alone.
When facing enemies, Wanda is the Scarlet Witch who kills without batting an eye and can even modify reality when enraged!
So, half-demon woman, I advise you to restrain yourself in the future, okay?
Otherwise, you might not see tomorrow's Sun!
But undeniably, the half-demon woman in front of him, whether in appearance or figure, was at the level of a top supermodel.
Her pair of enchanting, fully-maxed peach blossom eyes were the best of the best.
Although Karl was determined to be a pure and devoted "Pure Love War God," occasionally experiencing exotic charm was harmless…
What's that saying again?
No matter how old a man gets, as long as his third leg can still stand up for one day, the Fire in his heart will not extinguish.
"Ahem…"
Karl said earnestly, "Miss Satana, rest assured, that situation will definitely not happen."
"However, I can promise that if anything truly unforeseen happens to you during the mission, I will definitely avenge you."
A shy blush immediately appeared on Satana Hellstorm's fair cheeks; even though it was feigned, it was still utterly captivating.
So much so that Karl highly doubted whether this woman was truly the legendary succubus.
"Alright then, since you want me to go so much… I'll help you this once, okay?"
"But I do have one tiny request, oh!"
Damn, confirmed, this woman is a succubus herself.
Do you know, you sound so annoying when you talk like that!
"You go ahead and say it."
"Hehehe…" Satana giggled, "Don't worry, I just want to join your Hyperspace Group, like my brother."
"You can."
Karl always welcomed capable individuals.
A soul contract is formed!
Zzz—
Karl then used his Cyclops to break the two enchanted chains that bound Satana Hellstorm, then used the power of the Reality Stone to transform a portion of Warp energy into a colorful, beaded bracelet.
"Wow, so pretty, is this a gift for me?"
The half-demon woman happily took the bracelet.
"No." Karl, like an unromantic man, shook his head and said, "These beads contain my power. Once you reach the Hell Dimension, find a suitable time to scatter these beads in different areas. That way, I can directly pinpoint the dimension coordinates of that Hell through them."
"Oh, I see."
Satana Hellstorm pouted, feigning a pitiful look, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by a series of awkward coughs from Daimon Hellstorm, who was so embarrassed he was practically digging his toes into the ground.
I should be under the car, not in the car, seeing how sweet you two are…
Daimon Hellstorm couldn't understand why his crazy sister had always hated men the most.
Why was she acting so flirtatious today upon seeing Boss?
Had she gone crazy from being locked up?
There was indeed that possibility.
After all, the two had been confined in the dungeon for several years, in utter darkness.
If they were ordinary humans, their minds would probably have collapsed long ago.
Not to mention the zealots of the Vatican Church, who, every so often, whenever a major ceremony was to be held, would come here in advance to chant scriptures or flog the siblings.
However, this time, Daimon Hellstorm was wrong.
The reason Satana Hellstorm disliked men was not because there was a problem with her sexual orientation, but because she always felt her bloodline was extremely noble, and ordinary humans simply weren't worthy of her.
But Karl, as a Dimensional God, was different.
He was clearly a diamond bachelor, wasn't he?
"Tch, big brother, you're really in the way."
Satana Hellstorm pouted, then strode out of the cell with her long legs.
Whoosh—
After breaking free from the suppression of the magic array in the cell, an evil six-pointed star magic array composed of Hellfire immediately appeared on the ground beneath the half-demon woman's feet.
And two backward-curving black demon horns quickly grew on her head.
Compared to her brother, Daimon Hellstorm, she clearly inherited more demonic power and was more skilled at controlling Hellfire.
"Bye-bye!"
Satana Hellstorm waved at Karl, then her figure, along with the Hellfire shrouding her body, vanished without a trace.
"Oh no, the Daughter of Satan has escaped?!"
"Bishop McCoy, what should we do? Should we immediately report this news to His Holiness the Pope?"
In the corridor, the bewildered clergy on guard immediately fell into disarray, all looking at Bishop Warren McCoy, whose expression was constantly changing.
"Why is everyone making such a fuss?"
After watching Karl leave through the portal, Bishop Warren McCoy finally wiped away the fine sweat on his forehead and imperiously reprimanded them:
"Mr. Karl Merks had already informed me earlier that this 'sin silver loss incident' might involve both Heaven and Hell forces, which is why those two Sons of Hell are needed to assist in the investigation."
"His Holiness the Pope has already agreed to Mr. Karl Merks's request… But there's one thing I must remind you: if anyone dares to speak of what they saw today, then be prepared to face the Vatican Church's retribution!"
"Yes, My Lord Bishop!!"
