Chapter 6: The Road to Godhood
The two laughed for a while, and Konstantin stopped first.
"Stop, Dante, stop laughing, is there anything funny I haven't noticed?"
Dante heard him and shut his mouth, and his body trembled twice before he was completely quiet.
"You're such a bastard, you don't allow others to continue laughing when you've laughed enough, I can imagine what kind of person you are in life, domineering and unreasonable, isn't that what I said?. ”
"Ha!" Konstantin got up freely and said: "Whatever you think, I'm going to sleep, I'm afraid I'll have to deal with an unknown demon who likes young girls tomorrow, I don't know if giving it an inflatable doll can satisfy it!"
"Inflatable dolls?" Dante asked, puzzled, "What is that? a child's toy?"
As soon as Dante finished speaking, Konstantin laughed again.
"It's a toy, but it's not for children!"
With that, Konstantin turned and left.
Dante didn't want to sleep, he hadn't closed his eyes in a row for too long, and if he could see death in the blink of an eye, anyone would forget the ease and beauty of sleep.
"Wait!"
Dante shouted.
"I still have a lot of stories to share with you, such as the demon kings and dragons I once slain with my own hands, such as the nine female elves I dealt with in one night, such as my competition with the god of wine and relying on my wits to achieve the ultimate victory, time is so precious, why let it be wasted?"
"Savor it for yourself, we still have a long way to go, and I don't want to hear enough old stories to excite me for a year!"
Konstantin's voice came down his room, and Dante sighed helplessly when he heard it.
But the next moment, Konstantin spoke again.
"That's right, Dante, don't wander around the room, don't try to leave this house, go back to your room and have a good rest, tomorrow help me deal with the enemy I am about to face, I don't know if there were restaurants or hotels in your time, but I should tell you that in my house, eating and sleeping cost money, if you don't have money, you can work for me!"
"Huh!"
Dante chuckled softly and returned to the bed where he had woken up, but the excitement of escaping purgatory never subsided, Dante loved the feeling of sharing his story with others, and watching Konstantin discuss his past with him, Dante felt a sense of pride.
Trying to fall asleep, obviously, Dante failed, Dante's mind kept flashing countless images, delicious food, a free world, and most importantly, countless tender glowing female bodies, all kinds of beauty and happiness that could be tried in the future made Dante unable to sleep.
Thereupon!
"Konstantin, Chas is right, your house is so poorly soundproofed!"
Dante shouted loudly, believing that his voice could reach Constantine's room.
Sure enough, Konstantin replied.
"I'm asleep!" he replied, "I don't have the money to renovate my house so that I can still hear your disgusting host-like voice, but I'm asleep now, and I'm sleeping soundly."
Dante pursed his lips, he felt that Constantine was still quite interesting, shameless, scoundrel, and always telling lies, but at the end of the day, this person was really interesting.
However, Fun cannot help Dante defeat the Demon of Demons, and no matter how happy Dante is, he cannot forget the pain of his exile, the pain of his people turning into dust in purgatory, and the pain of his followers being killed all.
Dante closed his eyes and silently felt his physical condition, and when he closed his eyes, a not-so-dazzling light bloomed on his body, alternating between black and white light.
Half an hour later, Dante opened his eyes.
"My energy intensity has recovered to thirty, but this kind of body is only a little stronger than a baby, and it is not far from a warrior, but if you want to become a hero, I'm afraid it will take a while!"
As he says, in Dante's time, demigods, including all divine beings, could see through the energy of living beings directly through the human body.
Thus, the ancient gods and demigods laid down hierarchical rules for warrior life.
Based on the energy of the newborn baby, the energy of a baby is one, and when the energy value of the child reaches ten, that is, ten times that of the baby, the child will be declared an adult.
An energy of ten is an adult, and an energy of one hundred can be called a warrior, and of course, the occult can call himself a mage.
Today, Dante's energy value is thirty, which means that he has three times the energy of an ordinary adult, which is not simply three times the strength, but the total amount of speed, endurance, agility, intelligence, mana, cell content, and so on.
When Dante has a hundred energies, he can call himself a warrior.
After becoming a warrior, you can be called a hero when the energy intensity reaches a hundred times that of a basic warrior, that is, 10,000 values!
And so on, when the energy intensity reaches one million, that is, the person with a hundred heroic powers, is a legendary warrior, or a legendary mage.
The demigod is multiplied by one hundred on the basis of the legend, and a hundred basic legends are equivalent to one demigod, so the minimum energy value of the demigod is one hundred million!
It's the same with demigods, every time the base value is multiplied by a hundred, Dante will enter a new level.
When Dante was sent to purgatory by the Demon of Ten Thousand Demons, his energy value reached about 9.78 billion.
Ten billion is the god, the trillion is the main god, and the supreme god is generally the master of the law, while having far more than a trillion energy, it also needs to control more than ten complete and powerful laws in order to obtain the divine position of the supreme god!
But the supreme god is not the end, legend has it that there is a realm above the supreme god, which is called creation!
But that's a realm that Dante can't reach or even imagine.
Dante was lying on the bed mountain, slowly absorbing the scattered energy factors in the air, and then he found a good news, that is, although Dante lost the energy strength of the demigod and the steel body of the demigod, there was still divinity in Dante's soul.
"Divine power doubles the amount of energy I absorb every day, which in turn shortens the time it takes me to regain my peak!"
At the same time, Dante quickly sensed that the current era was a little more concentrated than the era before he entered purgatory, which would reduce Dante's time to regain his strength by at least thirty percent again.
Dante summed up happily, while silently calculating in his mind.
Before the ancient years, Dante came of age at the age of seven, and it only took him seventeen years to become a demigod, and then it took only four years to have the qualifications to ignite the divine fire!
And now, if Dante wants to regain his power at the peak, it will take half of the original twenty-one years and multiply it by seven-tenths, that is, a little more than seven years.
"That's great news!"
Dante closed his eyes, thinking back to the image of himself being besieged and defeated by the Demon King, and being thrown into eternal purgatory by the claws of the demon that covered the sky.
"I will go to you, if you are still alive, I will extinguish your divine fire, even if you have dissipated, I will rekindle your divine fire, and then extinguish it in front of you again!"
Dante hammered his chest hard.
"Wait for me!
After simply venting his frustration, Dante once again realized a good news.
"It's good to come out, you can't close your eyes and you can't see the poor worms I killed!"
In this way, Dante slept.
Not far away, in the western suburbs of Atlanta, in a cheap apartment building, Liv wakes up from her sleep.
Liv opened her eyes and was first dazzled by the constant white light outside the window, and after finally getting used to the light, Liv heard the constant sound of the siren.
"What's going on?"
Poor Liv was puzzled, so she put on a thin quilt and went to the door, and looked out through the door, and there were some policemen standing outside the door, which made Liv a little frightened, but fortunately, these policemen were all facing away from Liv's door.
Liv, who was glad that the police were not looking for her, breathed a sigh of relief, and she hadn't forgotten that her car that was moving on her own hit a homeless man.
But on second thought, these cops were facing their own door, which was the home of their good friend Talia.
Liv quickly opened the door and walked out.
"What's going on?
Liv had barely taken two steps when she was stopped by the police.
"Go back to your room, ma'am, this is the crime scene!"
One of the police officers stops Liv, and the word crime scene makes Liv's spirits even more tense.
"What the hell is going on!"
Liv pushed her shoulders against the policeman blocking the way, and tried to poke her neck to look at the so-called crime scene, the policeman who blocked Liv may still be a chick, a little embarrassed to touch Liv's smooth skin exposed outside the quilt, so she took a step back, and this retreat allowed Liv to see everything clearly.
"Oh my God!"
Liv was stunned to see Talia, who had picked her up not long ago, fall to the ground, the forensic doctor and the police gathered around Talia, Liv heard certain words that occasionally popped out of the medical examiner's mouth, and she realized that Talia was probably already a corpse!
"Tarya!"
Liv covered her mouth helplessly, trying not to scream out loud, what the hell is wrong with this world!
The police who stopped Liv saw that Liv had seen everything, so they insisted that Liv return to the room to make amends.
Liv is pushed by the police to walk to the door, but just as she is about to return to the room, she sees a strange symbol on her door.
The main body of this symbol is a triangle, and there is a pair of eyes engraved on the left side of the triangle, and there are some lines connecting the two!
She didn't know what it was, but the woman's instincts told Liv that it had something to do with Talia's death!
When Liv returned to the room, Liv sat helplessly on the couch, as if a voice in the dark told Liv that it was time to call the so-called master of the dark arts!
Liv hesitated for a moment and picked up the phone firmly, but before she could dial, Liv saw the time.
“4:32”
It's still early in the morning!
Liv put down the idea of calling, if that John Constantine was really a master as he said in his business card, would it anger him to wake him up in the early hours of the morning?
So, Liv edited a text message.
"Hello, Mr. John Constantine, I would like to speak to you about last night, and if you may, will you be able to wait for me tomorrow at the place where we met last night?"
Liv saw Konstantin in the parking lot of her unit last night, and if they met there, even if Konstantin had any bad intentions, Liv could get help from her colleagues.
After typing, Liv thought for a moment and pressed send.
