"Life can't be measured in money, but if it were you, I'd rather take it."

Finell is a smart man, and he doesn't want to have any contact with harmful things, even if he suffers a loss. This time I was lucky to have Officer Zhang here, and next time without him, I would probably be killed by John.

No one could have guessed what kind of enemy John Constantine would be, and Finell wanted to live a few more years, and it would be better to experience what it was like to be in a spaceship.

Earth is about to enter an interstellar age, and it would be a shame to die before then.

The group walked out of the munitions store, not getting the information they wanted, and even alarmed the mage who had stolen Geraldin's soul, and Konstantin lit himself a stress-reducing cigarette.

Chas was his best friend, and the girl didn't have much time left for her body when she lost her soul, and they had to get it back in two days, or even a day.

The mage who wields dark magic is powerful, ordinary tracking magic is certainly useless, and there seems to be only one friend he knows who can help

"Manny!"

Suddenly, Konstantin, who was standing next to the car, shouted into the sky, he had not forgotten that he still had a 'guardian angel'.

Whew-

Everything around him fell to a standstill again, and the only man who could move looked at the male angel in front of him who had folded his wings and said, "Give me a hint, where is the soul of Chas's daughter?" ”

"You know John, I can't influence the outcome of things."

Before the other party was about to lose his temper, Manny smiled and added, "If I were you, I would go and see some train yard that has been abandoned for years." ”

With that, he spread his wings and ignored John's questioning and disappeared into the sky.

"What did the black angel say to you?" Zhang San, who was sitting next to Zede in the back row, asked, from the British guy shouting at the sky just now to returning to the car with a helpless face, something must have happened in this.

Manny, Zhang San still remembers that the angel with this name was a black man.

Even in heaven, you can't escape the black law, it's a thing that's even more terrible than a virus.

"He suggested that we go and see the train yard that had been abandoned for several years, which was the closest to Brooklyn?"

Konstantin didn't think there was anything strange about Officer Zhang's question, after all, Keyboard was friends with him, and Keyboard would tell him about Manny.

Zede, who was sitting next to Zhang San, contacted the Transportation Bureau by phone, and finally asked for an address.

The Haskins train yard, which has been abandoned for several years.

The taxi took the group to a wooded area on the outskirts of the city, where there was an old railroad but no depot in sight, and the only building was a warehouse with rusty leaky pipes.

Zed checked the address she had just recorded, and it was not wrong that the Transportation Bureau had told her that the location of the Haskins train depot was here, but why couldn't she see it?

"Could it be some other train depot?" Chas is now more anxious than anyone else, and if he doesn't find the mage's location quickly, his daughter will die.

Picking up a stone on the ground, Konstantin weighed it and said, "Sometimes what you see with your own eyes is not necessarily the truth, especially when the other party is a powerful dark magician. ”

As he threw the stone towards the empty railroad not far away, several people saw that the stone suddenly disappeared in front of their eyes, as if they had been eaten by the air.

"Can black magic make a factory transparent?" Zhang San put the semi-automatic sniper rifle he took out of the trunk next to him as he spoke, and then carried the mat that Finel had given him for free on his shoulder.

"A special kind of magic that can change the perception of ordinary people so that they can't see what is obscured by magic, magicians will do this trick."

With his hands down, Konstantin closed his eyes and chanted a spell that he was going to crack the spell.

In an instant, a huge old-fashioned train yard was revealed in front of the eyes of several people.

"Officer Zhang, if you find an opportunity, you will shoot."

Konstantin, who had put something in his pocket, walked in with the other two, the doors and windows of the train yard had long since been removed, and the ace officer had enough vision to shoot the black mage inside.

As soon as the mage dies, his spell will be invalidated.

With a sharpshooter behind his back, the British only need to communicate with the other party to guide him to reveal his flaws, after all, no matter how powerful a magician is distracted, it is difficult to deal with the deadly sneak attack of modern weapons.

There are shelves full of bottles and cans in the old factory, all of which are related to black magic.

I don't know what was being cooked in a few crucibles on the small stove next to me, and there was a cloud of white smoke hovering over the surface of the pot.

Boom!

As Chas followed his friend past one of the boiling cauldrons, the liquid in the pot suddenly rushed upwards.

The three of them stopped to glance at what was exploding, then walked around the shelf to meet the figure sitting behind the magic table.

There were various magic items piled up on the magic table, dark gold candlesticks lit with red candles on the left and right, and a book spread out in front of this person.

The other party was wearing a robe with a hat, and they could only see each other's old chins.

"I have a hunch that you will come for the sake of the soul of your friend's daughter."

The voice was deep and a little hoarse. Just as Konstantin guessed who he was, the mage sitting across from them removed the hood from his head.

Seeing this familiar face, Konstantin laughed out loud and introduced Zede who didn't know him around him:

"I thought it was someone, but it turned out to be an apprentice and assistant who had worked for the most powerful dark mage of our time all his life, Felix. Faust. ”

Faust, who was bald and had gray hair on both sides of his head, looked at him and introduced himself to the people next to him, and he waited for the guy to finish before he spoke:

"I'm a deputy, but Konstantin, didn't you come to me because you couldn't crack the magic of an apprentice? My method of separating the soul from the body can't be lifted by your power, can I? ”

Taunted by an apprentice of a dark magician, Konstantin appears to not care at all.

With his hands in his pockets, he asked how the other could spare the girl's soul.

As soon as these words were spoken, the old man sitting in the chair stood up, stretched out his finger and pointed at Konstantin in front of him and said:

"I've been someone else's apprentice all my life, and now I want you to serve me. There's a demon called Nightmare who has come to this city, and it's hunting my prey, and I need my soul to increase my power."

Originally, Faust was going to accumulate some more strength to personally go over to deal with this demon who snatched his prey, but since Constantine sent it to the door, there was no need for him to go over by himself.
