Chapter 859 Peter: Let’s make a deal?

Jeanne asked Theresa beside her with a look of shock on her face.

"I don't know either."

Theresa looked at the situation and whispered to Jeanne, "Dad must have won anyway."

On the other side, Benji, who was buried in the rubble, slowly stood up from the ground.

At this time, Benji's body was already in a very old state.

Benji, with his hunched body and snow-white hair, no longer had his former dashing appearance.

Full of tiredness, he slowly crawled towards Peter on the ground.

Zatanna was not hurt too much because she was protected by Peter before.

Looking at Benji crawling on the ground, a look of disbelief appeared on her face.

Is this still the casino tycoon capitalist I knew before?

It didn't take long for Zatanna to understand.

Mammon must have taken away the other person's ability to remain young intentionally or unintentionally.

"Wait a minute, please!"

Benji's hunched body gradually crawled towards Peter.

"Please, save me, don't let that monster take my life."

Benji, kneeling on the ground, called out to Peter for help.

"Save you? It sounds like if I were in danger, you would ask me for help."

Without waiting for Peter to speak, Zatanna walked up and said menacingly.

She wanted to beat up this bastard who had cheated on her and married her to vent her anger.

How could this guy be my most important image partner? !Zatanna looked at Peter indignantly.

Benji knelt on the ground and continued to plead with Peter and Zatanna, "Please, forgive me. You are my only hope."

Zatanna shook her head, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place!"

"I'm sorry, I always thought there would be a way out and I could escape from this terrible situation."

"You want to escape from Mammon's clutches? It's impossible. As long as you bet on human souls, he will always find a way to get your heart by any means possible."

Seeing that Zatanna was unwilling to help him, he said anxiously: "Then destroy it! Turn me into a soulless thing, there is still time!"

Zatanna frowned as she looked at the other person who spoke in an urgent tone.

"I do not understand what you are saying."

"I mean, it's better for you to turn me into something than to become a lonely soul and suffer endless torture."

Zatanna glanced at Peter, who said nothing and obviously gave her the right to choose, took a deep breath and said, "You don't deserve this relief at all."

She paused for a moment and continued, "But if you take the initiative to give up everything in your past and future, whether in this life or the next..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Benji, who was hunched over, immediately said, "I do!"

The moment he said yes, a rumbling sound was heard from the ground.

"Padraic!"

From the buried ruins, Mammon's gigantic figure emerged, a voice emanating from his throat that frightened Benji.

When he heard Mammon stand up and roared for revenge on Peter, he immediately crawled to the side.

Seeing Benji trying to escape, Mammon pointed his finger at him.

Benji turned into a huge gold nugget the size of an adult.

Looking at Benji who had turned into a gold nugget, Mammon nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good. I will turn you into a gold nugget and satisfy your wish to become an object. In this way, your soul and body will still belong to me."

Mammon made a satisfied sound, "Well, staring at this untouchable golden light and dreaming about the wealth that can never be obtained, the little bugs have crawled into the heads of countless people. Great!"

Mammon muttered to himself for a while, then turned his angry eyes to Peter.

"Padraic, you have angered me. I will defeat you completely and make you my soul collection!"

Hearing the threat from the guy in front of him, Peter looked unconcerned.

"I am looking forward!"

Seeing that Peter didn't take him seriously, Mammon raised his hand and tore open the void, and thousands of golden daggers poured down.

Runes were engraved on the blade of each dagger, making a sharp scream as it cut through the air.

Peter's clothes were torn, but he simply spread out his palms, and a handful of dream dust rose up and turned into a translucent shield.

"Ding! Ding! Ding!"

The dagger hit the sand shield and sparks flew, and all the daggers he threw were blocked.

Mammon's pupils contracted, and he guessed that those grains of sand contained fragments of the purest dreams of mankind.

Then, in the shocked gazes of Jeanne and Theresa, Peter flicked his fingers and the sand shield exploded into black vines.

These vines have no substance but are condensed from the energy in dreams.

When the vines wrapped around Mammon's left ankle, he was reduced to rotting bones below the knee.

Feeling the pain, Ma roared and tore the vines apart.

Hell shook, and Mammon's body swelled into a ten-meter-tall golden giant. Anger rolled in his eyes, and a golden torrent gushed out of Mammon's mouth.

"Be careful! Daddy!"

Seeing this scene, Theresa shouted out in anxiety.

"boom!"

Facing the opponent's attack, Peter immediately jumped back to avoid it, and the ground where he landed was corroded into a deep pit.

"It seems like that's all you've got, Mammon!"

Peter said as he pressed his palms on the other's toes.

Cracks suddenly appeared on the golden surface, and with a loud bang, the colossus staggered back under the powerful blow.

After repelling the opponent, Peter took out an hourglass from his arms. The moment it turned over, the flow of time in the entire space became disordered.

Mammon's fist was suddenly stuck in mid-air and could not continue to attack him.

"It's time to dream, Greedy One."

As Peter spoke, the hourglass burst into a galactic glow, and Mammon's huge body was forcibly compressed back into human form.

Pale grains of sand emerged from the cracks in his golden armor.

The sand in the hourglass, representing dreams, kept overflowing and entangled Mammon.

Until the last grain of sand sealed Mammon's mouth, Mammon was completely subdued and unable to move.

The sand in dreams has the power of dream rules, which forcibly pulls the other person's consciousness into sleep.

the other side.

When Theresa saw that Peter had finally subdued Mammon, she clenched her fists and cheered softly, then said to Jeanne, "Well, I've said it before, Daddy can never lose to this big devil."

Zatanna originally wanted to help, but after seeing Peter deal with Mammon, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Her eyes moved and she looked at Peter with a complicated expression.

It turns out that Peter's power is no less than that of this big devil.

No wonder Mammon is so afraid of Peter.

After dealing with Mammon, Peter's consciousness also entered the dream world.

Mammon, affected by the golden sand, could only allow Peter to do whatever he wanted in the dream world.

Looking at Mammon who was tied up by vines, Peter asked him calmly: "Do you have anything to say now, Mammon?"

"You can't defeat me, you can only trap me for a while! Padraic!"

Mammon shouted at Peter in anger.

"Really? But you are trapped by me now. Although I cannot kill you in a short time, I can banish you to the kingdom of dreams forever."

Peter took a step towards him. "But we can make a deal. A truly fair deal, a fair deal where no one is cheated."

Mammon was speechless when he heard Peter say he wanted to make a deal with him.

As the devil of hell, the lord of hell, and the greed of the seven deadly sins, he has always been tempting others to trade their souls with him.

But what he didn't expect was that the guy in front of him, the new god of sleep - Peter Patrick, actually wanted to make a deal with him!

Which one of us is the devil?

And why is this guy so incredibly powerful? !The real sleeper won’t be killed by this guy, right?A subtle fear arose in his heart.

"What deal?"

After some inner struggle, Mammon finally chose to compromise with Peter.

It doesn't seem shameful to succumb to sleepiness. Even if others know about it, it won't damage your image.

"Your free soul will be the bargaining chip."

Seeing the other party's cooperation, Peter nodded with satisfaction, "Tell me, what happened to Archangel Michael? Why are those angels looking for a little girl?"

Peter asked him why the angel wanted to capture Joan of Arc.

Hearing Peter's question, Mammon was stunned for a moment, then stared at him with complicated eyes.

"Who are you exactly?"

"Just answer my questions."

After hesitating for a while, Mammon finally said to Peter: "This story starts a long time ago. There was a man named Eastman. One night, a glowing man came to his bedside and took the baby from his wife's body. Eastman witnessed everything but dared not speak."

Peter listened to the other party and nodded. He guessed that the baby girl was Joan of Arc.

"It turns out that all angels are infertile, except for the Archangel Michael. Michael was given the power of creation by God. After failing thousands of times, Michael finally made the human woman Barbara Eastman pregnant with a child."

"Hmm, then, what happened to the child?"

The other party's words could explain why Joan of Arc was the daughter of Michael.

"The glowing guy is a fallen angel. He appeared at the bedside of the Eastman couple and took away the baby. I don't know who this fallen angel is, but I heard that he left the ovary of his wife, Barbara, and then gave the baby to a couple for adoption."

"That's all I know. I think the angels you mentioned who were looking for the little girl were probably following the command of the fallen angel and looking for Michael's daughter. That's why so many angels were dispatched."

Listening to the other party's story, Peter nodded slowly.

It turned out that it was a fallen angel who took action.

As for the fallen angels?Which one will it be?
