I created the Bureau of Anomaly Control

Ma En watched the suddenly appearing man warily, while activating the "Loop Teleportation" plan, allowing him to leave here as quickly as possible if necessary, and also paying attention to the other party's behavior.

Because his appearance was too sudden for Ma En, and if he could come to him so silently, then he could definitely launch an attack before he could react, his current situation was not safe.

Moreover, the sudden appearance of such a human in hell was definitely not normal.

"Who are you?" Ma En asked, remaining vigilant.

The mysterious man had no intention of hiding anything:

"Haven't I been calling you all along?"

Hearing this, Ma En realized what he was and understood why he hadn't reacted at all to his appearance. It wasn't that the other party had any special hidden skills, but that he had always been around him, or rather, he was inside him.

It was hell that had been calling Ma En.

But knowing this, Ma En's doubts only increased. Did hell have a consciousness? He had never heard of any humanoid incarnation of hell, and if hell really had a consciousness, it shouldn't be like this now.

Ma En always felt that something was wrong.

"Are you hell itself?" Ma En directly asked the question in his mind, "Or the reality warper who was killed by the Destined Returner?"

The mysterious man did not directly answer Ma En's question:

"You didn't respond to my call, so I came to you myself.

"Although there is almost no hatred in your heart now, and you are as calm as a gurgling stream, I know that you are facing an insurmountable predicament, and I am very clear about the worries in your heart.

"And coincidentally, your enemy is also mine, maybe you would be interested in making a deal with me."

In fact, this was exactly what Ma En was thinking. Before meeting him, when he was thinking about how to deal with the threat from the Archangel, he had already thought that he might be able to use the power of the hell demons.

However, he didn't expect that the one who said this was hell itself—if it really was.

Ma En didn't completely believe his claim. Maybe this was a hell devil trying to deceive him, or maybe it was the Balancer himself who had just said goodbye to him. After all, he had never heard of hell having any form of consciousness or incarnation before, and no other Great Demons had seen such a thing.

With this thought in mind, Ma En asked:

"What kind of deal do you want to make with me?"

The man turned his head and scanned the other demons and devils around:

"Accept the power of hell, and you will be able to defeat the Archangel."

When he said this, the surrounding demons didn't react at all. They seemed to be completely unable to see the man appearing in front of them at this moment, and they didn't think he was talking to himself.

However, the "hell's" answer reduced Ma En's original suspicion a lot, because such a deal was meaningless to other Great Demons, only the real hell would want to achieve this.

But Ma En still felt that something was wrong.

"What are the specific costs and rewards?" Ma En asked while observing the other party's expression.

The man replied:

"You can get the gift and power of hell, enjoy the same power as other demons, and although you lack hatred and anger in your heart, I can guarantee that as long as you accept it, you can become a Great Demon, and becoming a Hell Prince is only a matter of time for you.

"This is what I can give you, and it is also what you need now."

Ma En asked vigilantly:

"When I really have to pay, will I become a avenger like them? Will my mind be affected and controlled by you, will my soul be bound by you?"

But after Ma En asked this question, the man seemed to not hear what he was saying at all, and had no intention of answering Ma En's question, but instead started talking about another thing:

"Heaven is our common enemy, you may not have personally felt the power of the Archangel, but I can tell you how difficult it is to be his enemy, you cannot possibly survive in this situation."

Ma En looked at his eyes suspiciously and said:

"What is it that I really have to pay?"

He did not answer.

Ma En had already vaguely sensed where the strangeness he felt came from—this man did not have a trace of hatred or anger when he mentioned heaven and angels, and it could even be said that he didn't care at all.

And if the other party was a living thing, considering the current situation in hell, he should have been almost madly angry and hostile towards heaven, and if his hatred had faded now...

Then hell shouldn't be like this now.

He gave Ma En the feeling more like a merchant eager to sell something, a mechanical negotiator.

Ma En asked again:

"Why me?"

The man looked at him and said:

"Because your opponent is the Archangel, because you need my help."

Ma En continued:

"Can you be sure that my enemy is the Archangel? Do you have any more practical evidence?"

The man remained silent again.

Ma En questioned again:

"Can you prove that you are alive?"

Silence.

Ma En was basically certain that, through the silence he showed in response to his questions, and the expression in his tone and expression when he spoke, he could basically be sure that this suddenly appearing man was not alive.

He also didn't think that hell would have any thinking consciousness. This thing was more like the product of the complexification of the instinctive call to him at that time. This incarnation was still just its mechanism for summoning him.

It was just a more advanced call. After all, hell was just the echo after the death of the reality warper.

Hell may not be trying to deceive him or anything. This may just be a way of expressing its power. After all, hell itself is an abnormal entity with some kind of complex mechanism, not a purely "dead thing".

In fact, there should be no essential difference between this man and the calls that other demons encountered, but because of his special nature, hell itself adopted this form of expression, and it is also very likely that this is because hell feels that he is more important to its revenge.

But realizing this, Ma En also dismissed the possibility of making a deal with him. No demon had ever seen such a thing in the past, which could also corroborate that he was special to hell.

And the special thing about him was naturally the Abnormal Control Bureau.

Ma En didn't think that hell just thought that he with the Control Bureau could help him with revenge. Its purpose was definitely the Control Bureau itself, and it didn't answer what he wanted, which meant that hell also knew that if it told its real purpose, he would not agree to this deal.

It was very likely that it wanted to seize the Abnormal Control Bureau.

Although the Control Bureau itself had the ability to counter the power of demons, he had not forgotten that hell itself was also a creation of a reality warper, and it also possessed a kind of reality warping power.

They were both unreasonable guys.

Fortunately, it was not other living reality warpers who noticed his power. If the hell that appeared in front of him at this moment really had consciousness, it would definitely have used other methods to force him to submit.

This was also why Ma En realized that it was just a mechanism of hell. No matter what, this figure standing in front of him could not be a thing with self-awareness, otherwise he would have been surrounded long ago.

And realizing this, Ma En also felt that this was an opportunity:

"If you want to make a deal with me, then maybe we can first discuss something that may not be so important to you. Can you tell me what the true identity of the Dark Sun is?

"Can you be sure that the Dark Sun is the Archangel?"

Although it was just a change of wording of the previous question, Ma En felt that this man who claimed to be hell itself should be able to answer, because now he was asking about things inside hell.

Sure enough, this man seemed to be able to understand this question now:

"I don't know the true identity of the Dark Sun, but haven't you already gotten the answer?"

Ma En said to the man:

"You're right, but I may be more cautious. I originally thought that hell itself could feel whether the identity of the Dark Sun was the Archangel, but I didn't expect you to say that."

The man said:

"If what you said is true, how could the Archangel leave safely?"

That's right. If hell, as a half-dead abnormal entity, could see through the Archangel's disguise, then he might have been dealt with when he first entered, and it would not have been possible for him to leave hell like this.

Ma En continued to ask:

"Can you tell me what the Archangel is good at, and how can I fight against him? After all, he is our common enemy no matter what. It's not bad for you to know more about these things."

As Ma En expected, this man didn't seem to have the intelligence to threaten him by hiding information:

"His wisdom was personally bestowed by the Destined Returner, and the Destined Returner's 'wisdom' is not the kind of wisdom that mortals used to understand, neither knowledge nor tricks, but something outside of reality.

"But these are not important to you, because you are not his opponent now. No matter how much I tell you, your final outcome will be defeat. This is what his wisdom can achieve.

"So you need to make a deal with me."

Ma En ignored the words deal and continued to use this man as a question-and-answer machine:

"Doesn't he have any weaknesses?"

The man then replied:

"Of course, for example, the prophecy of the Godly Firmament Walker can deal with him, and also..."

Speaking of which, he suddenly became dumb, and then fell into silence again, like a machine that was stuck.

This once again proved Ma En's conjecture, but this evidence was meaningless, and Ma En was also a little confused as to why he paused here. Could it be that this hell incarnation had already noticed his intentions?

But just as Ma En was confused, the man opened his mouth again:

"...But even if there are so many ways, the only thing you can choose is to accept the power of hell."

After realizing that the man was not alive, Ma En was not surprised by his performance, after all, his purpose was to trick him into making a deal with hell in order to seek his Control Bureau.

Ma En changed his angle and asked:

"Did the Balancer hide anything from me just now?"

The man did not answer.

Seeing that he didn't have any reaction, Ma En changed his words and asked:

"Can you really be sure that I can defeat him if I make a deal with you?"

Hearing this, the man immediately gave an answer:

"I can't guarantee anything, but in my opinion, this is your best choice.

"I won't lie to you."

Ma En estimated that he would not be able to ask anything useful. It seemed that the jam just now made this hell incarnation realize something and establish a defensive posture. Then, he did not continue to stay at risk.

He directly sent a "retreat" message to the Control Bureau, without leaving a single word of farewell, and disappeared out of thin air in front of this mysterious man, leaving him alone on the streets of hell.

But when Ma En left, the man did not disappear.

He just stared blankly at the place where Ma En had just stood, like a statue, just staying in place, and the passing demons did not notice his existence at all, as if he did not exist at all.

And even as the surrounding demons continued to come and go, the man's figure remained standing like this, as if he would stand here forever, and no one would ever come here to find him again.

Until two days later.

A blind demon with a strip of cloth covering his eyes walked into this street, and behind him were a man and a woman who looked like high-level demons with extraordinary temperament, protecting him in the middle.

The blind demon walked slowly to the human man who looked like a statue and stood still.

The male demon behind him asked:

"Prophet, have you found him?"

The blind demon raised his hand and stroked the air in front of him. Sometimes his hand would touch and pass through the man, but from time to time his hand would grope around the man, as if he couldn't really see the man.

"Yes, I found him." The blind demon's tone was very firm, "But he's gone."

There was some regret in the female demon's tone:

"He ran away, when will we really be able to catch him?"

The blind demon continued:

"Be patient, we will catch him sooner or later."

Speaking of which, he raised his hand and touched his empty eye sockets, and then his arms began to tremble slightly unconsciously because of past memories, and the female demon, noticing this, also reached out and put her hand on his shoulder.

"We will definitely avenge you." The female demon comforted softly.

The blind demon slowly moved his hand away, and there was no hatred in his tone:

"Rather than revenge, what I want more is the truth.

"Although he is not here anymore, that is enough for the prophet."

Then, in the worried and concerned eyes of the two demons, he grabbed the cloth strip covering his eyes and tore it off directly, revealing two bloody empty eye sockets, staring straight at the man's location.

And the figure of the human man who was like a statue finally began to gradually blur, the human skin was rapidly melting, revealing the red demon skin underneath, the strong and terrifying body, and...

That face, which couldn't be seen clearly at all.

Starting a riddle (though not really), I wonder if any readers can make the connection.
