Chapter 176: Choosing for the World
Konstantin stood at the bottom of an apartment building, which is where Midnight Daddy ran his gang, Konstantin just got out of the taxi, and saw a few Midnight Sons, the gangsters led by their father, they were downstairs sentry, hiding in the corner to monitor the crowd, and when they saw Konstantin, they were really surprised that even the tobacco in their mouths fell.
A man quickly disappeared and went upstairs to report to their father.
Konstantin calmly observed the disappeared little minion out of the corner of his eye, and calmly said to Zatanna in the car: "Aren't you going up?" ”
"I'm not going up...... I'm waiting for you right here. "Zatanna was very unimpressed with that African voodoo manilock.
"I've put the Reversal Charm in your pocket...... I hope he calms down. What did you steal from him? Zatana asked, "It's a shame to stand with you......"
"Don't say that...... Xiaozha, that's just a probe skull. Konstantin said calmly: "I thought I had cleared up the misunderstanding with him!" There was a huge fluctuation in the metropolis that day, and I was a little curious, so I discussed borrowing it from my father, but I didn't see him when I went, so I didn't tell him. ”
"But you didn't expect that thing to come to your door on its own, did you?" Zatanna sneered, "Go up!" Accept the punishment you deserve. ”
Konstantin said with a hippie smile: "Xiaozha, you know...... We are the best at evading punishment and cost. That's magic ......"
By this time, Konstantin had seen out of the corner of his eye a shirtless black man with a group of people walking down, he was carrying a large gold chain - Midnight Daddy was a voodoo magician from Haiti, and some of his men were capable black men. Konstantin walked up to him with a smile on his face and said, "Hey! My man...... It's been a long time. Is Daddy okay? ”
The black man went up and punched Konstantin and knocked him to the ground: "You stole Daddy's things...... Again, dare to come! ”
Konstantin fell to the ground and screamed in pain.
Konstantin looked up and said, "Didn't I come?" There is borrowing and repaying, I am showing sincerity, and I am also helping my father relieve a trouble...... You should know what happened in the metropolis that day, everyone knows about the magic fluctuations that probe the skull, and someone will come looking for it......"
"Ugh!" Konstantin was given another stick by the old black with a crowbar.
Konstantin collapsed to the ground, and Lao Hei stopped and said, "Daddy wants to see you!" Think about how to explain it first! ”
When he saw Midnight Daddy, Konstantin was not surprised that he was torturing two people who were already difficult to be human, one of them, with long hair, looked like a woman, but now it had become a woman's nightmare, its lower body was completely gone, its vertebrae were supported on the ground with intestines, and it was still wailing: "Please, you, you, let me and me be free!" ”
It has turned into a monstrous and terrifying corpse!
Midnight Daddy stood next to him with a cigar in his mouth and his arms in his arms, looking at Constantine, who was wearing a voodoo robe, and sneered, "I'm curious what you're looking for?" Konstantin, you stole my stuff and prepared to find the magical artifact that appeared in the Metropolis...... That's not your style, and in general, you'll restrain your greed. ”
"You know the cost of magic, though you are reluctant to say so, Konstantin...... You're a scumbag, but you're also a scumbag with a position. ”
"You're maintaining the balance of magic!" Midnight Daddy said, "That's why I'm willing to hear you tell me why I see your rotten meat...... Of course, don't play such a little trick in front of me! Midnight Daddy reached out and pulled out a strange charm from the pocket of Konstantin's jacket.
"Reverse the spell and return the damage you have suffered to the last person who hurt you today!"
Midnight Daddy pressed Konstantin into the face of the half-mutilated corpse and made him come into close contact with it.
Zakang was so smoked by the stench of the rotting corpse that he wanted to vomit, and it wasn't until the teeth of the corpse bit him that he screamed: "If you do this, Xiaozha won't kiss me for half a year!" ”
Midnight Daddy flipped the charm a little, and the charm suddenly burst into flames, transferring all the damage taken by Konstantin to the soul regenerating corpse.
Midnight Daddy let go of the hand that grabbed the back of Konstantin's neck, allowing him to stand up calmly, Zakang tidied up his trench coat and shirt a little, and highlighted a mouthful of rancid saliva in disgust, he snapped his fingers, and plunged his body into darkness, in a dark space, there were only two people, Zakang and Midnight.
"I have orders from that lord!" Zakang Road:
"Don't be foolish...... John, I'm not a very patient person. Midnight Daddy said.
Some twisted blue flames suddenly appeared around Konstantin, and a vague figure appeared in the middle of the flames, he looked at Konstantin and said, "I need you to do something for me, John." Midnight Daddy exclaimed, "Prophet! ”
"First Prophet!" Konstantin turned sideways to the magically preserved projection, his sideways silhouette holding a cigarette, cigarettes are also a medium for spell casting, in fact, the history of tobacco use in the occult is almost synchronized with the history of tobacco being used by humans, Indian wizards love to smoke tobacco to cast spells, using smoke as a medium for spell casting.
A certain writing wizard, a white-robed wizard who reads Berserker, also loves tobacco.
The projection is surrounded by smoke, and it is clear that Zakang has used tobacco as a medium to make it visible.
The First Prophet's distorted projection said: "There will be an artifact in the future in the metropolis......" A vague shadow that glowed green appeared in the smoke, and Konstantin said slowly: "Like kryptonite, right?" ”
"It's very dangerous, it's a gateway to another world, it's a fourth prophet, it's a key to being sent in...... Help me find it, Konstantin. It is a sign for a powerful mage to return home, but we cannot let him come back because he will destroy the world. There are three outsiders who have come to our world. ”
Reed, spiders, and Strange's vague shadows appear in the projection.
"Protect him." The First Prophet looked at Reed's projection in complexity.
Then he said to the projection of the little spider: "And the artifact is on him!" It is possible for him to destroy the world, but the world should have been destroyed long ago. You don't have to care. He is the one we have chosen to destroy this world. ”
"And him!" The First Prophet pointed to Strange and said, "Even the mage who has been banished out of time, you must bring him back at the right time, if the timing is not right, the process of destruction of this world will be uncontrolled." ”
For the first time in the projection, Konstantin appeared, and he asked the first to know: "Isn't it the responsibility of the committee to protect this world?" Why look for me? ”
"Because our opinions have been divided, the Three Prophets have been divided! We all see that the world is at a critical juncture, standing at a crossroads to a different future, but there is a huge difference of opinion among us, everyone wants to save the world, but the world can no longer be saved! ”
"We have to make a choice, a different choice!"
"So we go our own way, and the Council will only act when the three prophets are of the same opinion, and this is my iron rule, and the committee is now doing its best to save me, and I must make sure that there is a chance to do it all over again, so we can only let the second and third prophets do it, and you know, no one can do it better than the second prophet when it comes to making decisions for the world."
Konstantin said solemnly: "That's really a ...... The ability to make people jealous. ”
"We don't see eye to eye, so I need you to get the artifact so I can potentially stop the choices he makes for the world at a critical time."
"But he can keep me from touching the artifact." Konstantin tracted.
"No...... He will! The First Prophet smiled and said, "As long as it can make you unlucky...... He'll take the initiative to deliver things to your door. This is the rule of the game between us. ”
All illusions vanished...... Midnight Daddy was silent.
He stood up, turned his head and walked into the darkness, and the two of them left the dark world and returned to reality.
