Constantine, who was lying on the cliff, was stunned, but at this time, Zatanna rushed up quickly.
When Batman wanted to jump down just now, she wanted to stop him, but he was a step too slow and didn't stop him.
Zatanna ran to the edge of the cliff and pulled the stunned Constantine back. Just as she was dragging Constantine back, she suddenly discovered that Constantine's body lit up with a faint light.
Zatanna said in surprise: "What's going on? Why are you glowing? Oh, God! The wounds on your body are healing!"
Along with that faint light, it spread all over Constantine's body, and the scars that penetrated deep into his soul and spread all over his body disappeared little by little.
Including some scars that look like cuts, burns, or missing pieces that were then mended back together, they are all constantly healing.
But Constantine seemed to be going crazy, his whole body was trembling, and he shouted loudly: "No! No! You can't leave me! You can't leave... you can't leave... you are part of my soul!!"
"Lobo...Tanzan...Astra! Astra!" Constantine grabbed his arm, trembling and screaming like an epilepsy. Zatanna didn't know what happened to him, but she could only
She held him down hard and asked, "Who is Astra? What are you shouting about?"
"A little girl... I killed her, she was dragged to hell... Just like today, I didn't... I didn't catch her..." Constantine's language system became a little confused, he said
: "And Luobo...Walker, he had his heart taken out by the devil because of me. This is the trace he left..."
Constantine covered his chest again, but when he took his hand away, he found that there was nothing there, so he let out another scream.
Zatanna couldn't understand why Constantine suddenly went crazy. She could only try to persuade him: "Don't do this, John! John! Look at me, relax, this is a good thing..."
"The disappearance of these scars means that the devils will no longer come to haunt you. After the sins you have committed and the traces left by magic have all disappeared, you can return to a peaceful life. You have not always been like this.
Are you trying to persuade me?!"
"No..." Constantine said tremblingly: "You don't understand, you don't understand... They are the meaning of my life, these scars are the meaning of my life..."
Zatanna shook her head vigorously and said: "You are crazy. I know you are sad about them falling, but it doesn't matter. We can still find ways to save them. It's not like you haven't been to hell before!"
"As long as you pay a sufficient price, the devils will be willing to let them go, but now you have to calm down and think about where to start to save them...Constantine!" Zatanna grabbed Constantine's hand.
Two shoulders, looked him in the eyes and said:
"Irony magic is my innate ability, and I don't have to pay the price for it, so I don't know how to deal with the devil at all. Only you can do this, so now, only you can save Bruce and Schiller."
!Can you calm down?!!”
By the end of her words, Zatanna was already roaring, but Constantine was unmoved at all. He put his hands on the ground and lowered his head and said:
"I have killed many of my friends and innocent people. Each of them will leave a scar on my soul and bring me endless pain..."
"But it is this pain that allows me to live and realize that I am paying the price for my filth, evil and ingratitude..."
"Physical pain can save me from inner blame. Whenever I feel guilty, pain is my antidote. Whenever I feel that life is worse than death, I feel that I have feelings for those victims.
The repayment..."
"So, I must not be cured... Stop it! Stop it!" Constantine stood up like crazy, as if he had seen some hallucination, waving his arms and shouting: "Get out of here!"
Drive! Get away! Don’t come near me!!!!!”
Zatanna had to hug him hard, but after those scars disappeared, Constantine's soul power became more abundant, and Zatanna was completely unable to stop him.
Constantine staggered to the edge of the cliff and almost fell off. Zatanna couldn't help it. She stretched out her hand, pointed at Constantine, and said, "Keep moving!"
A beam of light flew to Constantine and immediately immobilized him. However, within a few seconds, Constantine showed signs of breaking free. Zatanna cursed and then added another spell.
She grabbed Constantine's soul and glanced at the hell below the cliff. She hesitated for a moment, but still summoned a fire ring portal and took Constantine away from here.
Constantine struggled and yelled all the way, and Zatanna had to add a binding magic every now and then. By the time they returned to the Batcave along the spiritual world, Zatanna was too tired to breathe.
Getting angry.
After standing there for a while and resting, looking at Constantine who was about to break free again, Zatanna picked up his soul and forced it back into his body, then returned to her body and woke up.
But as soon as he woke up, Constantine jumped up from the sofa like a dying fish, and then began to scream. Zatanna held him down again and asked: "What on earth are you screaming?!
!!”
Zatanna pressed Constantine's shoulders, and Constantine's struggle made his shirt a little messy. Looking down the collar, Zatanna exclaimed: "Oh my God! The scars on your body are also
Disappeared!"
Constantine became a little dull. Zatanna held his face and looked at his appearance carefully, and then said with some confusion: "No, not only the scars have disappeared, but you also seem to be younger?"
"I remember you said last time, how old are you? 35 or 36? But before, you looked like 45 years old..." Zatanna reached out and gently touched Constantine's eyelids,
Then he said: "You have really become younger. Now you look like you are just 30 years old."
Zatanna thought for a moment, and then said: "All your debts have been paid off, including the life you gave. Therefore, the scars on your soul and body have disappeared, and your age has recovered.
Already."
Zatanna stretched out her hand, her fingertips lit up with a little light, and then gently placed it between her eyebrows. Her eyes flashed with a crystal luster. When she looked at Constantine again, she said in shock: "Jesus! John
, you are in incredible health now, and your soul activity is stronger than any magician I have ever seen..."
Hearing the word magician, Constantine seemed to have been triggered by some switch. He suddenly jumped up from the ground, knocking Zatanna staggering. Then he reached into the pocket of his windbreaker with trembling arms and touched
Two crumpled charms came out.
He concentrated and shook the spell again and again, but there was no response. Suddenly, he turned his head and stared at Zatanna with burning eyes and said: "Casting materials...Give me some casting materials!! I know you have them!!!"
!”
"Do you want to use magic?" Zatanna got up from the ground, then took the two charms from Constantine's hand and said: "You often taught me not to abuse magic and not to believe in magic too much. Why is it now?
It’s all over your head, but you don’t remember it?!”
"John, haven't you figured out the current situation?" Zatanna put her hands on Constantine's shoulders and said, "You don't have any debts anymore! You are a normal person now!"
"That is to say, you will no longer be harassed by any devils or angels, and you can live a peaceful life!"
Zatanna stared into Constantine's eyes, with a hint of sadness between her eyebrows, and said: "Although my attitude towards magic is not as pessimistic as yours, I also know that this is a river that once you step into it, you can never get out of it.
.”
"When we were young, we all wet our trousers due to ignorance. This is true for all magicians in the world. Once they use magic once, they can no longer avoid the curse of being haunted by nightmares."
"As long as you step into this circle, you will eventually fall into an endless cycle of paying debts for debts until your soul falls into hell."
"But now...but now!" Zatanna also said with some excitement: "You broke out of this cycle! Constantine! You are the luckiest magician in the world, and you have a chance to start over!!
"
"As long as you never touch magic again, you will never make the same mistake again! You are free!"
Constantine's eyes were a little dull, but he still shook his head slowly, then looked down at Zatan and said: "Give me the materials to cast the spell..."
"No, I won't give it to you." Zatanna slowly took two steps back and said, "That's hurting you. Although I like to use magic myself, I will never teach others to use magic.
That is dragging an innocent person into the water, including you."
"As for Bruce and Schiller..." Zatanna took a deep breath, and then said: "I will find a way to find people in the family and ask them to contact the devil in hell to see if they are willing to bid."
"Both of their souls have something special. No one among those devils is willing to let go. Once there is a stalemate, it is possible to negotiate terms. As for you, John, you should go home."
"Don't go! Xiao Zha! Don't go!" Constantine stood there, looking at Zatanna's back, and begged: "Stay here, stay with me..."
Hearing Constantine's trembling tone, Zatanna clenched her fists, but her steps still stopped. She walked back, looked at Constantine and said, "You are an ordinary person now, John.
You have been given a new life and you should be happy about it."
Constantine shook his head and said: "You don't understand, Xiao Zha, it's not that I can't pay off those debts. You should know that there are too many ownerless things in the universe. If I collect them with my heart, I may not be able to."
Satisfy everyone.”
"But I don't want to do that, and I borrow more and more. My purpose is not to borrow power from them, but the consequences of not repaying the debt."
"The devils will try their best to collect debts, including torturing my body, whipping my soul, and making me experience endless punishment in nightmares, but that's exactly what I need..."
Constantine showed a sad expression and said: "I am not the person you imagine who can kill friends with peace of mind without feeling any guilt at all."
"Only the pain in reality can allow me to escape this kind of guilt..." Constantine took a deep breath, leaned against the wall, and sat down slowly. He covered his face with his hands and expressed an expression of extreme pain.
The voice said:
"But Schiller... my good friend, he saw this when he got along with me."
"So, he used the most straightforward method to eliminate these pains so that I could no longer escape. This was my old debt..."
"He expected all this!" Constantine's knuckles turned slightly white, and he gritted his teeth and said, "He knows that as long as he jumps, Batman will definitely jump too!"
"Those who tried to save me and those who really saved me fell into hell together. This will be a new debt that is more difficult to repay than all the old debts put together..."
"Old debts cannot be evaded, and new debts cannot be repaid..."
"Am I saved?" Constantine raised his head, looked at Zatanna, and said in a desperate tone:
"No, I will never be saved."
