Chapter 171: Darkness
Hell and Heaven have made a pact that neither party can directly intervene in the earth. Humanity has the right to make its own choices. However, it turns out that the so-called convention is used to break it. Take a look at the glimpse in the movie. The streets are full of all kinds of angels and devils, as well as all kinds of mixed bloods, wandering around. The so-called agreement is just a formality, and it is a reason for the two sides not to fight head-on.
Whether it is heaven or hell, they are sparing no effort to lay out the layout on earth. Only the last layer of window paper was left uncovered. War is imminent. The vast majority of humanity in the Inner World is unaware of this. But Konstantin perceived. For this reason, this withdrawn guy even chose to cooperate with Lin Xuan. He had realized that he could not face this incident alone. And he had always noticed that there was something wrong with Gabriel's attitude.
"Do you believe in God? Constantine. ”
"Why do you ask?"
"As you already realize, our enemies may be more than just demons. Don't deny it, I'm sure you feel it too, right? ”
"I've never been of any religion, but I also have a hard time believing that people from heaven would be involved."
"Hehe, what do you think the gods of this world are? How they came into being, and how they maintained their divine powers. ”
"Nobody knows about this kind of problem."
"I knew it. Sandwiched between heaven and hell, the world is so weak. The other two could wipe us out with a wave of their hand, but we are always there. Don't you feel curious? Wars between races are always strong and weak, but the weakest human beings have always been able to survive between two stronger races. ”
"That's because of the pact between hell and heaven."
"Hehe, you believe in this kind of thing. If the agreement had worked, there would have been no war in this world for a long time. We exist because they need us. Heaven needs the faith of man, and hell needs the death of man. But this begs another question: what does the superiority of heaven and hell mean for us humans? The answer is that humans don't need them. We don't need angels or demons. ’”
Lin Xuan's words slashed through Konstantin's heart like lightning. It was a thought that had lingered in his subconscious for a long time. But he never really expressed the idea. But now Lin Xuan tore everything apart and put those things that he had carefully maintained in front of him.
"What exactly do you want to say?"
"Mammon can't do this alone, at least I don't think it can suddenly find the Spear of Destiny. So ......"
After more than ten days of 'trekking', Mammon finally managed to reach Los Angeles. The moment he entered Los Angeles again, the darkness in the air almost made him cry out in refreshment. His power had been suppressed for too long, and entering this city with a hint of hellish aura, he could finally use some of it with confidence. It's a pity that to his disappointment, the picture of countless dark creatures he expected to come to take refuge did not appear. There are only a few large and small cats waiting for him.
"What's the matter, Balthaza? What about my army? ”
A little demon cautiously replied, "Your Highness, more than ten days ago, the demon hunters in New York City began to hunt us like crazy. Unsuspecting, almost all of the gathering points were destroyed. Most were killed on the spot, and even a few survivors went into hiding. We are one of the very few who have not been attacked. ”
Mammon looked at the dozen or so low-level demons in front of her, and suddenly felt powerless. But this is just a small meaning, as long as the goal of the reservation is completed, it doesn't really matter whether these cannon fodder are or not.
"Prepare for me, I'm coming tonight. Also, inform our allies. ”
......
"Mammon has entered Los Angeles, and the dark side of the city is constantly building. For a long time, even if he doesn't do anything, those ordinary people may be depressed and even go crazy. ”
"Believe me, Mammon should be in a more anxious hurry than we are right now. So, if nothing else, it's going to be tonight. Get ready. Chas, I know you're proficient in all kinds of exorcism spells, pick the strongest one, and start practicing now. ”
Isabel was a little nervous, "Is he coming?" That demon. Will he hurt me? ”
"He won't hurt you, he just wants to erase your consciousness and take over your body. That's why I want you to stand in that formation and don't come out. We will protect you, trust me. ”
"What about Angela? She worked overtime tonight and hasn't come back yet. ”
"Angela is in the police station, and the devil won't do it in plain sight. You're the target of his first sequence, so just take care of yourself. ”
At three o'clock in the morning, the hour of Jesus' death, the 'hour of darkness'. This is the moment when the devil is at its strongest.
In Isabel's apartment, there was a sudden sound of Suoso. It was tiny and dense, followed by a buzzing sound. Lin Xuan opened his eyes in the darkness, and his divine sense had already sensed the attacker. It was an army of insects made up of countless flies, cockroaches, bed bugs and stuff like that. This is also the standard move of the worm.
Lin Xuan snapped his fingers, and a raging flame ignited on the ground, and the flames spread to all corners of the entire apartment, burning every insect to death, but it did not cause the slightest damage to the apartment.
The lights suddenly went out, and then the surrounding windows suddenly shattered, and a group of low-monsters that showed their prototypes rushed in. Lin Xuan didn't even make a move. Between Konstantin lit a strip of cloth with a strong sulfurous smell. The blinding incandescent flames lit up and spread rapidly, instantly reducing all the demons to ashes.
Lin Xuan always sat in the innermost part and didn't make a move, he was guarding against Mammon's surprise attack. After all, the previous miscellaneous fish are cannon fodder at a glance, and only Mammon is the real threatening opponent.
Angela, who was far away at the police station, was working overtime all night. Despite drinking a large cup of coffee, she still felt a little tired. The eyelids were heavy and he couldn't open them, and after a few struggles, he actually fell asleep on the table.
In the midst of the chaos, I only felt that I was cold, as if I had fallen into the water. She subconsciously wanted to pull up the blanket next to her and cover herself. But the coldness of the tentacles woke her up. This is by no means in a police station. She reached out and touched the pendant around her neck, it was an exorcism pendant. But from beginning to end, there is not the slightest warning, and protection.
Angela opened her eyes, and there was no valid information in sight. But she could feel herself in some kind of water. It felt like a pool or something. The darkness around them became more and more 'thick', and even gave people a 'sticky' feeling. The silhouette of a humanoid figure appears in Angela's field of vision.
