Vision and Tony erged from the core of the flas together.
Vision's body was composed entirely of vibranium, making it extrely heat-resistant to high temperatures. Tony's suit was a semi-finished, lesser-grade adamantium suit still under construction. While not as fire-resistant as vibranium, it was not susceptible to damage from ordinary high temperatures. However, even the two of them could only barely approach Sebastian's direction, unable to fully reach him at the center.
"Tony, what is the situation with Sebastian?"
Tony looked at Steve and spoke directly. "Not good, I can only barely control the spread of the flas, not completely extinguish them. Furthermore, neither my Iron Legion nor any of my other equipnt can penetrate the core area. It is very troubleso... Sebastian is becoming less and less like a human being with each power he absorbs."
As Tony and Steve spoke, Pietro suddenly arrived, carrying Wanda in his arms.
Wanda looked at the flas ahead, her face grim with worry, but she continued forward determinedly.
"Wanda, the temperature inside is too high. You cannot go in there."
Looking at Steve, Wanda shook her head and said, "It is okay. I have sothing Sebastian gave . At least I can keep myself safe!"
As she spoke, Wanda raised her right hand. The Frost Ring on her right index finger shone with a faint luster, and an icy force instantly descended upon Wanda, firmly protecting her from the heat.
The Frost Ring contained a trace of the power of icy authority. While it could not directly counter the powerful Hellfire Authority within Sebastian's body, it gave Wanda the power to protect herself. After all, these flas were rely the unconscious release of the Hellfire Authority, not artificially controlled, and their actual power was not at its peak.
Tony knew about the Frost Ring, but he still felt uneasy about letting Wanda go in like that.
"Wanda, wait a mont for ."
He imdiately had Jarvis control an Iron Legion soldier, who arrived carrying sothing resembling a tal briefcase.
"Wanda, putting this on will at least help you further insulate yourself from the heat, and it will also prevent you from being blinded by the light within the flas."
Wanda did not hesitate, imdiately following Tony's instructions and activating the simple incendiary armor. After donning it over her clothes, she harnessed the power of the Frost Ring and walked directly into the flas.
The only thing that could counter the power of authority was another authority!
Though only a tiny bit, Wanda used this wisp of icy authority to enter the fire, gradually penetrating the core area and reaching Sebastian.
Seeing Sebastian radiating hellfire from his body, yet his own body remained unchanged, not even his clothes were damaged, Wanda tried to move closer, but felt an indescribable heat radiating from him. The wisp of icy power within the Frost Ring was not enough to allow Wanda to penetrate Sebastian's protective aura even deeper.
She retreated slightly, then took another step forward. A red mist of light surged around her, shielding her from the intense heat. As she approached Sebastian, her protective armor gradually lted and fell away piece by piece, and Wanda's hair gradually beca frizzy from the heat.
Reaching out her hand, she inched closer to Sebastian, burn marks quickly forming on her exposed skin.
Gritting her teeth, Wanda endured the pain and continued to approach Sebastian. Just as her hand was about to be completely incinerated by the flas, another hand suddenly reached up and grasped Wanda's palm firmly. anwhile, the surrounding, previously irresistible flas instantly llowed and cald.
"Do not co in under these circumstances. I would not be happy if you were hurt."
Wanda looked at the now-waking Sebastian, shook her head, and smiled through her pain. "At least I will stay by your side until you wake up. Besides, I have the Frost Ring you gave for protection. It is just that my right hand is a little burned."
Sebastian looked at Wanda's right hand, which he held in his hand. It was covered in many burn marks. A white light gradually emanated from Sebastian's hand, and soon Wanda's hand was restored to its original state completely.
"Sebastian, your power has grown..."
"You are lucky this ti. I have received a significant boost in power. I will tell you everything when we get back. Now... I will extinguish these flas first."
As he finished speaking, a mark, several tis more complex than before, appeared between Sebastian's brows. He raised his hand, and the surrounding flas poured into it like water. The temperature around him plumted rapidly. Although there was still so warmth, it was just a normal fire that Tony's Iron Legion could handle easily.
By then, Sebastian had fully understood what had happened to him.
Ghost Rider's power ca from the Spirit of Vengeance. However, while the Spirit of Vengeance originates from Heaven, Ghost Rider's power is derived entirely from Hell.
This was because, before Ghost Rider existed, the Spirit of Vengeance had battled the elental demon Zatanos, one of the lords of Hell. Zatanos was severely injured in the battle, and the Spirit of Vengeance was also severely wounded. If that had been the end of it, the two of them could have gone their separate ways, without much of a problem, and Ghost Rider would never have been born.
However, at that critical mont, phisto took advantage of the situation and captured both the Spirit of Vengeance and Zatanos, rging them forcibly into one, creating the current Ghost Rider entity.
After being defeated by multiple Ghost Riders over the years, everything went according to phisto's plan. The Spirit of Vengeance that ford Ghost Rider gradually weakened, and Zatanos, who had rged with it, was almost completely dead, even his consciousness no longer intact, reduced to scattered fragnts.
However, just as phisto was about to reclaim Ghost Rider and finally consu Zatanos's consciousness and destroy the Spirit of Vengeance's Heavenly Mark, Johnny Blaze, who was Ghost Rider at the ti, resisted and refused phisto's orders, further integrating himself with the Spirit of Vengeance. This caused phisto to completely lose control of Ghost Rider.
Johnny later freed so of the Spirit of Vengeance's consciousness and power, relinquishing Ghost Rider's power, allowing Robbie Reyes to beco the new Ghost Rider.
At this ti, the Spirit of Vengeance was about to break away from the Ghost Rider and beco independent, but it happened that Sebastian absorbed the power of Hellfire. As a finishing touch, with the cooperation of the Spirit of Vengeance, the Ghost Rider was completely separated into two parts.
The Spirit of Vengeance returned to heaven, carrying its own power and mark from heaven with it.
The elental demon Zarathos, the lord of hell, whose consciousness was completely shattered into fragnts, was absorbed by Sebastian along with the authority of hellfire. This caused Sebastian's consciousness to be trapped in the consciousness space containing all the fragnts of Zarathos' consciousness.
Now Sebastian has barely absorbed all the fragnts of consciousness and has mastered the control of that consciousness space, but it will still take a long ti to completely digest those fragnts of consciousness and make them his own.
Sebastian has a feeling that when he completely absorbs the fragnts and power of Zarathos' consciousness, he will get unparalleled huge benefits from it!
