Chapter 176: Choosing for the World
Constantine stood downstairs in an apartment building, where Daddy Midnight runs his gang. As soon as Constantine got out of the taxi, she saw a few Midnight sons, the gangsters led by their Dad. They were on guard downstairs and hid in the corner to monitor the crowds. When she saw Constantine, she was so surprised that she even fell off the tobacco that was added to her mouth.
The man disappeared quickly and went upstairs to report to their father.
Constantine calmly observed the disappeared minion with the corner of her eyes, and calmly said to Zatanna in the car: "Aren't you going up?"
"I won't go up... I'll wait for you here." Zatanna was very unaware of the African voodoo warlock.
"I have put the reversal spell in your pocket... I hope he can calm down. What did you steal from him?" Zatanna asked, "It's so embarrassing to stand with you..."
"Don't say that... Xiao Zha, that's just a detection skull." Constantine said calmly: "I thought I had eliminated the misunderstanding with him! There was a huge fluctuation of power in the metropolis that day. I was a little curious, so I discussed borrowing the thing with my dad. But when I went there, I didn't see him, so I didn't tell him."
"But you didn't expect that thing would come to your door by yourself, right?" Zatanna sneered: "Go up! Accept the punishment you deserve."
Constantine said with a smile on her face: "Xiao Za, you know... we are best at evading punishment and price. This is magic..."
At this time, Constantine had already seen a naked black man walking down with a group of people, carrying a big gold chain - Midnight Dad is a voodoo warlock from Haiti, and his men are capable black men. Constantine walked towards him with a smile and said, "Hey! My guy... hasn't seen him for a long time. Is Dad in good health?"
The black man went up and punched Constantine, knocking him over: "You stole my dad's stuff... again, dare to come!"
Constantine fell to the ground and cried in pain.
Constantine looked up and said, "Aren't I here? I'm borrowing and repaying it. I'm showing sincerity and helping my father relieve a problem... You should know what happened in the metropolis that day. Everyone knows the magic fluctuations of the skull. Someone will definitely come to find that thing..."
"Uh!" Constantine was given another stick by Lao Hei with a crowbar.
Constantine collapsed to the ground after beating, and Lao Hei stopped and said, "Dad wants to see you! Think about how to explain first!"
When I saw Daddy Midnight, Constantine was not surprised that he was questioning two people who were already difficult to become human. One of them, with long hair, looked like a woman, but now it has become a woman's nightmare. Its lower body has completely disappeared, and its spine and intestines are held on the ground, while it is still wailing: "Please, you, you, let me, I am free!"
It has become a hideous and terrifying resurrection corpse!
Midnight Dad stood beside him with a cigar in his arms and hugged his arms, looking at Constantine, wearing a voodoo robe, and sneered: "I'm curious about what you are looking for? Constantine, you stole my stuff and were ready to look for the magic artifact that appeared in the metropolis... This is not your style, generally speaking, you will restrain your greed."
"You know the price of magic very well. Although you are reluctant to say that, Constantine... you are a scumbag, but you are also a scumbag with a stance."
"You are maintaining the balance of magic!" said Dad Midnight, "This is why I am willing to listen to you when I see you rotten meat... Of course, don't play such tricks in front of me!" Dad Midnight reached out and took out a strange talisman from Constantine's pocket.
"Reverse the spell and return the damage you have suffered to the last person who hurt you today!"
Daddy at midnight pressed Constantine onto the half-dead resurrection corpse and gave him an intimate contact with it.
Zha Kang was so smoldered by the stench of the rotten Resurrection Corpse that he wanted to vomit. It was not until the teeth of the Resurrection Corpse bit him that he screamed: "If you do this, Xiao Zha will not kiss me for half a year!"
Dad turned the talisman a little at midnight, and the talisman suddenly burned, transferring all the damage Constantine suffered to the resurrection corpse.
Midnight's father let go of the hand holding Constantine's back neck, making him stand up calmly. Zhakang tidied up his windbreaker and shirt, and in disgust, he saliva with a smell of rotten saliva. He snapped his fingers and threw his body into darkness. In a dark space, there were only Zhakang and Midnight.
"I received the order from that lord!" said Zha Kang:
"Don't be mysterious... John, I'm not a very patient person." said Daddy Midnight.
Some twisted blue flames suddenly appeared around Constantine, and a blurred figure appeared in the middle of the flames. He looked at Constantine and said, "I need you to do something for me, John." Midnight Dad was shocked and said, "Prophet!"
"The First Prophet!" Constantine turned sideways at the projection preserved by magic. His side silhouette held a cigarette in his mouth. Cigarettes were also the medium of casting spells. In fact, the history of tobacco used in occultism is almost synchronized with the history of tobacco being used by humans. Indian wizards like to smoke tobacco to cast spells and use smoke as the medium of casting spells.
A certain wizard who wrote a wizard, who read it as a Berserker, also loved tobacco.
The projection was filled with smoke, and it was obvious that Zakang used to use tobacco as a medium to reveal it.
The first prophet's twisted projection said: "A magical artifact will appear in the future..." A vague shadow emitting green light appeared in the smoke, and Constantine slowly said: "Like kryptonite, right?"
"It is very dangerous, a portal connecting another world, it can create the fourth prophet, it is a key sent in... Help me find it, Constantine. It is the Taoist sign for a powerful mage to return home, but we cannot let him come back because he will destroy this world. There are three outsiders who come to our world."
Reed, the little spider, and Strange's vague shadow appear in the projection.
"Protect him." The first prophet looked at Reed's projection intricately.
Then he said to the little spider's projection: "And the artifact is on him! He may destroy the world, but this world should have been destroyed long ago. You don't have to care. He is the one we chose to destroy this world."
"And he!" said the first prophet pointing to Strange, "It is a mage exiled from time. You must let him come back at the right time. If the time is wrong, the process of destruction of this world will be out of control."
The figure of Constantine appeared for the first time in the projection. He asked first to know: "Isn't it the responsibility of the committee to protect this world? Why do you come to me?"
"Because our opinions have diverged, the Three Prophets have been divided! We all see that the world is at a critical node and stands at the intersection to different futures, but our opinions have huge differences. Everyone wants to save this world, but this world can no longer be saved!"
"We have to make a choice, a different choice!"
"So we each do our own thing. The Committee will act only when the three prophets have the same opinions. This is the iron rule I have set. The Committee is now trying to save me, and I must guarantee that there is a chance to start over, so I can only let the second and third prophets act, and you know, no one can compare to the second prophet when choosing for the world."
Constantine said solemnly: "That's really a... jealous ability."
"We don't have a consensus, so I need you to get that artifact so that I can prevent his decisions for the world at critical moments."
"But he can prevent me from touching that artifact at all." Constantine said.
"No...he will!" The first prophet smiled and said, "As long as you can make you unlucky... he will take the initiative to deliver things to your door. This is the game rule between us."
All the illusions disappeared... Daddy was silent at midnight.
