157 Fuel the Flames! What's in the bag!
Calls to headquarters went unanswered.
The personal phone call of Professor Bloom, the adoptive father of the Hellboys, also went unanswered.
The people from the Occult Investigation and Defense Bureau understand that something is wrong, and that something special must happen in Washington, which is quite far away from New York.
"Damn it!"
Hellboy clenched his fists, his mood becoming more and more irritable.
If I didn't have to continue the call, I would have smashed my phone.
Not long ago, seeing his girlfriend Liz die in front of his eyes, could it be that at the same time, even his adoptive father had an accident?
He persevered and pressed the dial-out button continuously.
It's all here!!
The call tone keeps ringing in my ears.
The others, also from the Occult Investigation and Defense Bureau, looked at the red-skinned Demon Son in front of them with complicated expressions, not hoping for the outcome, but fully understanding the feelings of the Hellboy, and they all fell silent after looking at each other.
At this time, the surrounding staff from the New York branch building of the FBI noticed that there was a strange atmosphere lingering among the members of the action team from the mysterious department, and subconsciously looked away, did not dare to participate, and silently waited for the results.
Although their wanted for Batman has now become an attack on them by Batman, the humiliation in their hearts disappeared as early as the moment the superior department in charge of the operation, that is, the Hellboy and others, was beaten to the ground by Batman.
At this moment, the FBI and others are only happy in their hearts.
Fortunately, it was not the FBI who was in charge of this operation, otherwise, wouldn't it have been rubbed on the ground by Batman?
Even if he is not killed by Batman, he will be held accountable afterwards and completely become a victim.
No matter how you think about it, the future is dark and there is no light in sight.
While pondering.
"Hey!"
The voice of the red-skinned demon son was ecstatic, and it exploded in everyone's ears, causing people's brains to buzz: "Bloom, are you alright?" What happened at HQ and why didn't anyone answer the phone? ”
Everyone subconsciously looked at the Hellboy, and found that after the latter finished speaking, the joy on his face disappeared, and a familiar low color was replaced.
In those red eyes, there was a hint of danger unconsciously revealed.
The subordinates around the Hell Baron, several people from the Occult Investigation and Defense Bureau, were standing beside him at this time, fully understanding the Hell Baron's mood at the moment.
Because even if the phone is connected, there is not the slightest sound on the other side.
How so?
What the hell is going on at headquarters?
The address of the "District 51" is near downtown Washington.
A group of people didn't dare to think cranky, and they had to think cranky.
"It's you!"
The hellboy moved in his heart, caught some clues on the other side of the phone, gritted his teeth, and said word by word: "Gregory, even through the phone, I can smell your disgusting breath from hell......"
"It's a pleasure to be on the phone with you, Son of the Devil."
Gregory on the other side of the phone said with a smirk.
He stood in the palatial castle hall, surrounded by red sticky blood and a warm, recently dead corpse.
The corpses were either pierced through the heart with a sharp blade or hung by spikes emerging from the floor, their feet off the ground, their expressions of pain and despair.
This is all the work of Yin Sha and the clockwork man.
Except for the three demon believers led by Gregory, only one living person remained.
That was the adoptive father of the Hellboys, Professor Bloom.
"Looks like you'd love to say a few words to your adoptive father."
Grigory took his phone, turned on the amplification, and smiled at the only living person in the castle.
Bloom.
At this time, the old man in his nineties was pressed to the seat in the hall by the clockwork man, and the sharp blade in the latter's hand was facing the heart of the former, and the sharp tip of the knife could be ruthlessly pierced at any time.
Bloom faced a desperate situation and was very calm.
He has lived long enough to see too much death, so he is more comfortable accepting his own death than ordinary people—even if he is killed, it is expected.
Seeing Gregory's movements, his eyes shifted to the mobile phone that Grigory had taken from him, and said loudly:
"Don't grieve for me, child."
"Father!!"
There was a glint in the eyes of the hell boy, and it was the tears that lingered in his sockets.
"I'm terminally ill, and my days are numbered, but you don't know it."
Bloom said his last words calmly.
Grigory gave him enough time to leave his last words.
After all, Bloom's death was already sealed, and it was impossible for the Hellboys to cross hundreds of kilometers in an instant and stand here to confront them.
Besides, if the Hellboy was the only one here, they would be equally fearless if they gathered the strength of the three of them.
"Father, Abel is dead, in Wakanda...... Liz is also dead, just now! The murderers are all Batman! The magic map was snatched by him......"
Hellboy interrupted Bloom, unwilling to accept the successive departures of the most important people around him, gritting his teeth and speaking incoherently: "Until now, you are going to leave me...... Do you want me to accept the loss of two of the most important people in my life in one day? ”
Bloom's eyes widened when he heard this, and he lost his voice and lost his mind.
The death of Abel the Fish-Man in Wakanda is old news and not to be surprising.
But Liz is dead, tonight......
What does that guy dressed as Batman want to do as a human body targeted by demons?
Bloom suddenly became anxious.
If he dies here, doesn't it mean that there will be no restraints around the Baron of Hell in the future?
What does this mean?
Is it possible for Hellboy to get out of control?
Bloom's eyes widened, and he had a feeling of extreme malaise.
He felt that the deaths of Abel and Lisy were not accidents, but were calculated.
Even his own death may have been calculated.
Gregory was also slightly surprised, but a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
Batman was so bold that he pursued the Occult Investigation Defense Bureau led by Hell Baron, and also killed Lis, an important person next to Hell Baron.
Very good.
This is good.
Suddenly, Gregory's vision of the future became clearer and clearer.
That's the Earth assimilated by hell.
Gregory and the Baron of Hell sat under the throne, and on the throne was the great being of his faith, Ogdu Jihad, a giant building that resembled an octopus, a demon and a fallen angel.
Batman?
It is just a vehicle for the great being.
Gregory even had reason to suspect that Batman at this time had long been influenced by the Great Being.
Otherwise, how could he be so cooperative, pushing the Hellboy to his side?
By destroying the humanity of the Hellboy, he will be able to fully awaken and become a powerful demon who will sweep away all enemies.
"Kill him!"
After thinking for a moment, he waved his hand at the clockwork man and issued the order.
"No!!"
Hellboy held back and didn't hang up.
Snort!!
There was the sound of blood rushing from the phone.
Bloom's heart was pierced by a sharp blade in the clockwork man's hand, and his eyes quickly lost their lifeless color.
He opened his mouth, foaming at the blood, leaving his last words.
"Be strong, kid...... You will always be my son! ”
Holding on to this, Bloom's head tilted, his body went limp, and he sat down in his chair completely, losing his breath.
"Congratulations, back to God."
Gregory's gaze swept over Bloom's corpse, his phone in hand, and he looked up at the back of his hand.
】
The thick and powerful veins writhed like tentacles of an octopus.
It was as if another life was brewing in him.
"It's a pity...... God is in me. ”
Grigory looked obsessively at the back of his hand, as if it were a spirit, a living muscle, when suddenly he was interrupted by a voice that bordered on madness.
"Die!!"
The speaker of the mobile phone played the angry roar of the Hellboy: "Gregory, I'm going to kill you!" ”
"If you kill me, it's really over."
Gregory turned a deaf ear to the threat, but found it intimate: "You have lost your affection, love, and friendship, and if God is willing to help you, he should send the souls of these three men back to life as a reward for your service to the earth...... Sadly, God doesn't have you in His eyes. ”
"Not only God, but no one on earth wants to help you, no one even knows about you, and everyone who sees you sees you sees you as a monster."
His voice seemed to be magical, and he said slowly, "Angry? Angry? Hopeless? ”
The Hellboy had a heaving chest and a cold gaze, but he didn't answer.
The others around him vaguely heard Gregory's bewitchment of the Hellboy, and unconsciously felt irritable in their hearts, followed by a strong sense of foreboding, and always felt that they were going to be deceived.
"I can help you resurrect them!"
Grigory stated his true purpose: "In response, you have to help us catch Batman. ”
"How?"
His advice is extremely tempting: "Batman is your enemy anyway, isn't he?" ”
"Get out!"
The Hellboy was resolute: "I never compromise with my enemies!" I'm going to find you, and I'm going to kill you—just like I'm going to find Batman and kill Batman!" ”
Bang!!
As the words fell, he slammed his phone to the ground.
The phone is torn apart.
Both!
Gregory, located in the castle of Area 51, realized the excesses of the Hellboys, and his expression was quite calm, and his heart was extremely determined.
"Sooner or later, you will return to the arms of demons."
……
The other side.
On the edge of downtown Manhattan, near the rooftops of buildings by the Hudson River.
After David snatched the magic map, he came here, stuck at the limit of his ability, and listened to the movements of the Hellboy and others.
This is about the ability he has mastered - the limit distance of radar perception.
As a result, I listened to all the conversations between the Baron of Hell and Gregory.
At the end of the conversation, he touched his chin and found the situation very interesting.
"These demon believers are moving quite fast."
David unconsciously fell into thought, and secretly pondered: "I didn't expect to cooperate with them if I didn't pay attention." ”
He killed the Fishman and Liz in front of the Hellboy.
Demon believers talked on their mobile phones and livestreamed the whole process of killing Bloom.
Whether it is himself or a demon believer, this act can be called cruel.
Not to mention the hell baron who is the son of a demon, even a normal person can't bear it, and sooner or later he will turn black.
In short, now the Hellboy has lost the three major emotions that maintain human nature, and he has also lost the anchor of human nature.
With the passage of time, sooner or later the demonic nature will be restored.
Even if the Hellboy did not agree to cooperate in the face of Gregory's invitation, David did not think that Grigory could not see that if he made an invitation in such a scene, he would inevitably be rejected.
Gregory did this, knowing that he would be rejected, knowing that there was more than one person with Hellboy, and he intended to spread the news.
Demon believers are going to woo the Demon Sons.
Isn't that right?
Once the human hierarchy learned of this, their wariness of the Hellboy was raised to the highest level with Bloom dead.
The discord plan is a conspiracy thrown by Gregory.
The Hellboy is now angry and can't find a place to vent, and there is a high probability that he can't think of this problem.
Even if the people around him can think of it, they will remain suspicious, because his demonic identity is rare in the world.
Without Bloom's adoptive father as a counterbalance, as the only demon in human society, the future of Hellboy can be imagined.
The Supernatural Investigation Defense Bureau will inevitably become a cage for the barons of hell.
"He is worthy of being the spokesman of the devil, and small means can be seen everywhere."
David smiled.
The more powerful Gregory is, the sooner the honeymoon period for the Hellboys and humans will end.
Correspondingly, it's time for you to contribute to this result.
Ponder for a moment.
He reached for his phone, found a number, and called a guy he almost never contacted.
……
Late at night is the time when certain alien creatures are active.
On the street, a man in a suit is walking slowly, enjoying the moonlight bath.
As he walked, he looked at the young people coming and going, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face, feeling extremely satisfied with his life in recent days.
Bell bell bell!
Suddenly, the mobile phone rang, and when I picked it up, my face changed suddenly.
Meng beckoned.
Everyone on the street fell silent in an instant, and their eyes fell on this person with a look of awe.
This guy is the current Speaker of the New York Council among the vampire tribe in New York.
Degone Errepos.
"What do you command, sir?"
However, in front of everyone, in the stunned eyes of these people, Degone's face showed the same expression of awe as before.
After a few words, Degonet glanced up at the group and waved his hand again.
Swish!
It only took a few blinks of an eye, and the vampires present instantly dispersed and disappeared without a trace.
"Alright, please."
Degoné was not pretentious at all, and with a respectful look in his voice, he said without hesitation: "My side is very clean. ”
soon
He heard the words from the other side, and his face showed a look of consternation:
"If the Occult Investigation Defense Bureau can be controlled by us, it will be the best option...... Okay, no problem, I'll reach out to my brothers and sisters over there in Washington and ask them to help......"
"Allow me to congratulate you in advance......"
At the end of the sentence, Degone smiled and said, "Sir, it seems to me that the position of head of the Occult Investigation and Defense Bureau is already in your pocket. ”
