Chapter 960: Schiller's Blade (Part II)
"Okay, let me see, what should I do first." In the dimly lit basement, Konstantin sat in the center of the room, looking at the mess of spellcasting materials around him, touching his chin and saying, "Should I summon the green of all things first and let him turn the broccoli back, or should I find Schiller first and bring him back?" ”
At this time, Konstantin thought of Schiller's previous reaction, he sighed and said: "It seems that I should really read more books, it turns out that the allergic reaction will be so serious, I thought that at most, it would be a complaint." ”
"But also, just like I don't like dessert wine, if I only have one glass, I can think of it as if I can't see it, but if I soak in the pool of dessert wine, I might go crazy...... Forget it, let's solve the broccoli problem first, otherwise, I don't know how Schiller's cautious guy will retaliate against me. ”
After saying that, he stood up and began to pick and choose among the spell casting materials, intending to set up a summoning array, summon the green of all things, cancel the contract they had made before, and let him turn the broccoli back.
But at this moment, with a "bang", the door of the basement was kicked open, Konstantin was startled, silently took a few steps back, and saw that the person who came was Batman, he breathed a sigh of relief, touched his chest and said: "It's you, scare me, I thought the devil had come again." ”
"But seriously, can you open the door next time? Thankfully, I didn't put any traps on the door this time, otherwise you might have been catapulted into the Pacific Ocean. Konstantin shook his head as he walked back to the center of the room, but at this time, he sensed that something was not quite right.
He looked at Batman standing in the dark, Konstantin, who had a super high spiritual sense, and behind Batman, he saw the terrifying Black Tide.
He silently took two steps back, leaned against the corner, looked at Batman and said, "What's wrong?" Bruce, you...... Are you in a bad mood? ”
"Find Schiller's location." Batman's voice was low and hoarse, and he said, "Use the fastest speed to find Schiller's position." ”
Konstantin was a little nervous, but he still pointed to the pile of spell casting materials on the ground and said, "Oh yes, I'm working on it, I'm going to summon the green of all things and solve the broccoli matter." ”

"I'm talking about finding Schiller's location." Batman repeated it again, and Konstantin frowned and said, "Even if you want to get him back from the agents, you have to get rid of his allergens first, otherwise, even if he can return to the manor, won't he still be just as uncomfortable?" ”
"I caused this matter of broccoli, I will be responsible for cleaning up this mess, and later, I will have to be blackmailed by the green of everything, let me see, who will pay the bill this time?"
Konstantin wanted to turn his attention back to the pile of materials on the ground, but the next second, he heard the wind whistling in his ears, and when he turned around, he saw a flash of light, and a batdar was embedded in the gap in the wall tiles behind him, less than two centimeters from his ear.
"Batman! What are you doing?! Konstantin exclaimed, "You almost cut off my ears!!! ”
"Well, I know you're angry, I shouldn't have made so many broccoli and made Schiller allergic, but I didn't know, his allergy symptoms are so serious, it's just an accident, and there is room for redemption now, you don't have to kill me, right?"
"Hurry up and find Schiller's location." Batman repeated it again, and then he said, "Schiller is badly wounded, only you have a way to find him as fast as possible, hurry." ”
Hearing the tremor in Batman's last voice, Konstantin frowned, his face gradually became serious, and he stepped forward and asked Batman, "You mean, Schiller is injured, and those agents dare to hurt him?" ”
Seeing Batman's face, Konstantin didn't ask much, he immediately began to prepare the spell casting materials, and said while fiddling, "I think." As you may have discovered before, the fastest way for magicians to find someone is to go to the spirit realm. ”
"In the spirit world, we can directly locate people's souls, ignore the obstacles in reality, and travel through them as quickly as possible." Konstantin arranged some branches in a circle, and then brought several spices.
"However, only souls can walk in the spirit world, and ordinary souls cannot interfere with the real world." Konstantin handed Batman a bottle of spices and said, "However, as long as you attach some extra power to your soul, you can also allow him to temporarily possess the entity, with the strength of your soul, you only need a little magic energy, you can beat those ordinary agents down." ”
"Alright, ready." Konstantin stood in the circle, and Batman walked in, Konstantin crouched down and pressed his five fingers to the ground, ready to release energy into the material, but after he crouched there for a few seconds, he let out a somewhat confused "hmm??? ”
He took his hand back, took a few deep breaths, lit another cigarette, and said, "You just made me too nervous, the magic energy didn't work well, it's okay, let's try again." ”
After saying that, Konstantin squatted on the ground again, touching the ground with his five fingers, but after a few seconds, there was still no response, Konstantin changed his hand again, changed his posture, and changed all the spell materials, but it was still useless.
He stood a little dazed and said, "What's the matter? Why can't my magic work? ”
He also looked at his hands in disbelief, his arms were straining, but no light appeared, he closed his eyes and began to meditate on various demon patterns, but there was still no reaction.
At this moment, he was even more flustered than Batman, he immediately looked at Batman and said: "Something happened, something must have happened in the occult world, quick, let's go find Zatana, she should know what's going on." ”
After saying that, without waiting for Batman to move, he rushed straight out the door, but soon ran back and said, "Where did you hide Zatana?" Take me to her! ”
But soon, he reacted again, and said: "If you want to save Schiller, then Xiaozha is the only answer, even if the spirit world and magical energy can't be used, she will also divination, and she will definitely be able to give us Schiller's position." ”
The two left the basement, came upstairs, and returned to the bat cave in a bat helicopter, Zatana was bored playing cards, and when she saw the two of them coming back in a hurry, she looked them up and down with some confusion and asked, "What's wrong with you two?" Why is your face a little bad? ”
"Xiaozha, quick, see if your magic can still be used?" Konstantin said a little anxiously, Zatanna was baffled by his question, she stretched out her hand, pointed at Konstantin, and said, "Come and hang up!" ”
Konstantin was hung upside down in an instant, and Zatanna shrugged her shoulders and said, "Isn't this good? What are you crazy about? Constantine? ”
Konstantin fell from mid-air and fell to the ground, but he didn't have time to straighten his clothes, and immediately pulled out a charm from his pocket.
He shook it hard, the charm was afraid of making a "pop" sound, but there was no response, and it was not ignited, he shook it again, the charm still did not respond, and finally he kept shaking the charm, causing the paper charm to shatter directly, and Konstantin looked at the paper on the ground in disbelief.
At this time, Zatanna also realized that the problem was wrong, she stepped forward with some doubts, looked at Konstantin and said, "What's wrong with you?" Magic fails? ”
Ignoring the depressed Constantine, Batman stepped forward and said to Zatanna, "Take me to Schiller, he may have an accident." ”
"Schiller has an accident?" Zatanna immediately became vigilant and said, "What's the matter? Did the group of dark magicians do it to him? ”
"No, it's FBI agents, they took Schiller and wounded him, Schiller could be very badly wounded, and if we don't find him right away, he could be in danger of his life."
Zatanna frowned and said, "Well, there are two ways to use magic to find people, either to go to the spirit realm, or to divination. ”
"The advantage of walking in the spirit world is that it is fast, we can directly track the breath of the soul, ignore all obstacles in reality, and go directly to the target location, but it takes additional magic to interfere with reality, and divination and positioning are directly tracked in reality, although the speed is slow, but it does not require additional energy."
"Walk in the spirit realm." Batman immediately spoke: "I will compensate you for the extra energy you have paid, go now." ”
Hearing Batman's tone, Zatanna turned her head to look at him, then looked him in the eye and said, "Bruce, what's wrong with you?" Do you remember the first time we met? You become very much like you were then. ”
"Your soul is feeling sad and anxious and is on the verge of collapse, you can't go on like this any longer, relax...... Relax ......" Zatana stretched out her hand and shook it in front of Batman's eyes, the aura of magic made Batman's spirit stretch a little, without breaking the string in his head.
Instead of using the spell casting materials to go to the spirit world like Konstantin, Zatanna directly sat the other two in chairs, and after her body lit up, the three of them went out of their bodies and came to the misty spirit world as before.
Zatanna took the lead, and they flew for a moment, and Batman felt them pass through the building, then through the ground, to the underground, and then to the surface.
The spirits walked between the streets, and the moment they stopped, the most unacceptable image of Batman appeared in his field of vision.
At the end of the alley was a red phone booth, like every old phone booth in Gotham, the red paint peeling away and the glass covered in a thick layer of dust.
A figure leaned against the side wall of the phone booth, blood staining the floor of the phone booth red, flowing down the open door of the phone booth into the rain outside.
There was a huge wound on the side of his neck, and the strips of cloth that wrapped around the wound could not stop the flow of blood in the slightest, and the dark suit was all dyed dark red.
It was very clear that one of Schiller's arms had fallen limply, while the other was resting on his shoulder, as if trying to press the wound, but there was no doubt that he was no longer breathing.
Batman froze in disbelief.
Zatanna also showed a sad expression, she patted him on the shoulder and said, "Jie Wai, I think he will...... Wait a minute, Bruce, I remember you told me about the law of blood clotting, and judging by the degree of blood clotting on his body, he should have just died? ”
Batman was completely unmoved, but Zatanna said a little anxiously: "Since he just died, what about his soul?" His soul should stay where it is, huh? If we can find his soul, maybe there will be salvation! ”
Batman immediately turned his head to look at her, but Zatanna had already floated around the phone booth and began to search for Schiller's soul, and Batman followed her, Zatanna explained as she searched:
"Ordinary people's souls are not brought away so quickly, they are not so attractive, so there are no special demons or angels to pick them up, and they usually stay in place for 24 hours or more."
"Judging from the blood clotting situation, this professor may have just died less than an hour, and he is not Constantine, there was a group of devils and angels waiting next to him before he died, and the devils and angels are also on the way, how can they come so quickly?"
"Where is he?!" Batman asked, "Where is his soul?!!! ”
"Don't worry." Zatana said as she searched, "It must be nearby, and he doesn't have the power of magic to support him, so he can't float too far, maybe it's attached to the surrounding objects...... No, there is no ...... here."
Suddenly, Zatana shrugged her nose and said, "I smell the breath of the devil, I smell it, yes, it must be the guys from their hell, how did these slackers come so quickly this time!" ”
"Find him! Catch up with him! Batman said, and just as Zatana was about to speak, Konstantin spat out a name: "Edge of Hell." ”
"On the edge of hell!" Zatanna raised her voice and said, "Yes, that's right, we should indeed go to the edge of hell, which is the border between the human world and hell, and it is not yet under the territorial jurisdiction!" ”
Konstantin then spoke, "If we can intercept the demons there." And snatch the soul back, hell can't take care of it, then there is still hope! ”
"Let's go now." Batman stared straight at Zatana, who hesitated, but still stomped her foot and said, "Okay, I'll teleport you." ”
In the next second, with a wave of her hand, she summoned a ring of fire, and three souls flew into the circle of fire, and soon, the three of them came to a dark space.
It was a black barren land, and Konstantin pointed in a direction and said, "This is the direction to hell, and we must take the shortest route if we want to catch up with them." ”
Several people rushed all the way in that direction, and the gray scenery around them was unchanged.
Suddenly, a flash of fire appeared in front of him, and Batman took a closer look, and found that there was no road ahead, and on the distant skyline, there was a river of magma pouring down from the sky.
They were at the foot of a cliff, and in front of them were huge and juggling cliffs, the towering cliffs even more majestic against the backdrop of magma.
"Hell ahead." Konstantin said: "If you jump from this cliff, you will go to hell, and you must be careful later, do not fall, and do not be pulled down by the hands of the devil." ”
"Wait a minute, who's that? …… Schiller! Schiller!!! ”
With Konstantin's shout, Batman saw that at the very top of the huge cliff, there was a dark shadow.
Against the backdrop of huge cliffs and rivers of lava, Schiller's figure is very small, but very great.
Konstantin saw that countless ghost hands reached out from hell and desperately stretched out, trying to catch Schiller.
And at this moment, in the dim sky at the edge of hell, a beam of light suddenly appeared, a holy light pierced the dark clouds, and countless white arms stretched out from the holy light, wanting to touch Schiller's cheek.
Konstantin suddenly found that whether it was heaven or hell, every figure who came here was very familiar to him, and it was his former creditor.
And at this moment, Schiller's voice echoed at the junction of heaven and hell:
"Today, I invite you here, I just want to announce one thing, I know that my good friend Konstantin owes you a lot of debt, and he is not going to pay it back."
"But it doesn't matter, just now, I died."
"I believe you should be able to see in my soul a lot of sin or redemption that you have been longing for."
As his words landed, Schiller's soul burst into flames.
In the midst of the raging fire, a tower reaching into the sky appeared on the cliff on the edge of hell, filled with countless sins and good deeds, countless stories of grievances, and made all the devils and angels crazy.
Schiller's figure reappeared, and then he turned his back to all the devils and angels, his arms outstretched, and the firelight behind him outlined his outline.
He stood at the top of the cliff, looking down on all the visitors, like a soon-to-be-crowned king, and the first words he uttered made the earth and heaven tremble at the same time.
"I will use my soul to pay off all the debts of Konstantin."
"From now on what keeps him from asking will be satisfied, and what keeps him awake at night will dissipate."
"He will be freed from his doomed fate, he will be freed from the evil he was born with, and he will be - reborn!"
Schiller's voice fell, Konstantin was stunned for a moment, and then rushed up the cliff a little frantically, while Schiller took a step back, came to the edge of the cliff, and looked at Konstantin quietly.
Konstantin looked at Schiller's gray eyes, shook his head, and said instinctively:
"No ......"
Schiller opened his arms and slowly fell backwards, and Konstantin threw himself on the edge of the cliff, but his outstretched arms touched nothing.
Konstantin was lying on the edge of the cliff and looking down, the flames of hell were burning, and above the flames, in the alternation of light and shadow, Schiller's figure was like a falling geese on the skyline.
"No !!!!!!!!!!!!"
Konstantin's roar broke through hell.
At this moment, Konstantin felt a shadow pass over his head.
Batman leaps off the edge of a cliff and plunges into the abyss, just as he once flew down the attic on a cold night, light and light, but with great power.
And at this time, Konstantin saw that Schiller was falling, and a crazy smile full of smugness appeared on his face.
The Savior, who had once been bent on saving his benefactor, and who had now given his soul to pay all his debts, fell into Hell at the same time in his presence.
Konstantin felt a sharp blade pierce his heart.
Precise, elegant, and lethal in one hit.
Schiller: You see if I don't pierce you, you're done
