Seeing Harley doing a ballet pose, Constantine ignored the vomit stains on the ground and crawled to her side, shouting.
“What are you doing?” Harley turned around and asked.
"Uh" Constantine, whose eyes were glowing red and who was about to cast the god-summoning spell, was stunned, "Are you okay?"
“What’s the matter with me?” Harley was stunned, “Your eyes”
“A magic trick, I thought you were tempted by the devil. Just now you were going to dance to Astra.”
Constantine looked ugly, pointed at the pile of corpses, and said, "How do you think they died?"
At least half of them danced along, like a white radish spinning against a paring knife, its body shattered.”
"Yes, I was almost tempted just now," Harley's expression became serious, "The devil occupying this child's body is at least the earl."
“By the way, why are you okay?” she asked curiously again.
“Why should I be in trouble?” Constantine asked.
Zed also recovered at this time and said: "We should leave here and call the police."
“You can’t call the police. Wait until I figure out the cause of the matter.”
Constantine turned to Harley, "Did you bring your mobile phone? Check to see if Chas and the others have arrived. I need Benjamin's "Magic Book of Truth."
“I have a backup in my email,” said Harley.
Constantine shook his head and said: "That is a magic book, the pages of which were tanned by dragon skins by ancient wizards."
Harry dialed the phone number in the glass attic, and Ivy, who was tinkering with potion plants in the garden, ran to answer the call.
After a while, Harley hung up the phone and said to Constantine: "They are all here. They are watching the boxing match on the first floor of the fighting arena. It will take about half an hour to get here."
At this time, Constantine also turned off the music.
“Astra, Astra, do you remember me? I haven’t seen you for a few years. You have grown up. I am Uncle John, remember?”
Constantine approached cautiously.
Even though there was no music, the girl was still dancing, making rough sneers like "hahahaha" from her mouth, mixed with the little girl's pleas of "no, no, no" from time to time.
Just when he was about to touch her shoulder, Constantine's eyes narrowed and he hesitated to retract his hand.
The girl's skin had bruises and bruises, and her lower body was messy. She had obviously experienced intense lovemaking.
“Forget it Harley, it’s better for you, Zed, to hold her and make her stop,” Constantine said.
Zed did as she was told, and smoothly let Astra lie in her arms.
Zed put his hand on the girl's forehead and said, "John, her soul is very restless and her mind is in a mess."
Although Harley has seen many demons, this is her first time to participate in a real exorcism activity.
She was very conscious of a new person, so she stood on the sidelines, listening more, watching more and speaking less.
“Before Benjamin arrives, we must first know what happened.” Constantine said.
Harley couldn't help it anymore, "The devil is still lurking in her body, and we are not even sure whether the words coming out of her mouth are true or false."
“I will use magic to hypnotize her, and all the words she says come from the subconscious, and are more true than what she says when she is awake.” Constantine said confidently.
“Zed, try to calm her mental fluctuations. In this way, you will get twice the result with half the effort during hypnosis.”
Zede does what he says.
She sat cross-legged on the ground, letting Astra sit in her arms, holding the girl's temples from behind with her hands.
The child, who was still twisting and struggling, slowly calmed down.
Harry took the opportunity to pull down a curtain and cover the girl.
“This child’s name is Astra. Is he an acquaintance of yours?”
“Can’t you guess? She is Locke’s daughter.” Constantine said with a gloomy expression.
“I can guess, but I dare not guess. I cannot believe that a father would let other men treat his daughter like this.
You said you brought me to visit the Archmage, are you this kind of scumbag?" Harley said with an ugly face.
“Nothing has been decided yet”
Constantine said without confidence.
"Astra, my dear, you are safe now. You are relaxed, comfortable and warm." Constantine's eyes radiated a faint blue light, "It's like curling up comfortably in bed."
Astra shook her head in a daze, "I don't like lying on the bed because my dad always squeezes in. He is so fat and hairy. He also makes me do some things, just like my mother did before she died.
Just like that."
“Beast!” Harley cursed in a low voice.
Constantine sighed silently and asked: "Astra, what else does your father want you to do?"
"I wanted to read in the bedroom on the third floor, but he always asked me to go to the ballroom in the basement. He and his friends called the girls from the nightclub, drank a lot of wine, and took a lot of drugs. They comforted each other, and my father asked me to watch on the side.
.
Then they told me to imitate them, because I don’t like them because they are noisy, rough, and smelly.”
“What happened this afternoon?” Constantine asked.
“As usual, I told my dad that I didn’t want this, but he didn’t listen and used a Sony camera to film me and them.
I don’t like it, I told him”
Astra became agitated and spoke faster: "He should listen to me. I told him that I was leaving. He should listen to me. This is not my fault."
"Yes, it's not your fault. What did he do? Tell me, Astra, tell Uncle John." Constantine looked embarrassed, but his voice remained steady and gentle.
“They got high and started hurting a girl roughly, and then someone hurt me, and I got scared, and I started praying, hoping someone would help me.
I begged God for mercy, but it was no use, it still hurt.
I shouted the name of each angel, ah, it was useless, that person was still hurting me, and my father laughed beside me.
The world in front of me seemed to be distorted. I saw a lot of bad things. I saw it, Novosun. It was half a giant dog and half a monkey with a purple butt. Its internal organs were turned out of its body.
Like a sweater worn inside out.
No, it’s much more disgusting than a sweater, it’s slimy and has entrails and intestines hanging from it.”
“By the way, it also has a terrifyingly huge rod.”
Harley sighed and understood in her heart: As the daughter of a black mage, Astra also has a talent for magic. She has been exposed to it all year round and has seen her father or his father's friends summon demons many times. At the most desperate moment in her life, her consciousness entered the shadow world.
, summoning a demon that symbolizes the person who hurt her.
Astra continued, with a little joy in her voice, but more of it was fear: "Novosheng grabbed the person who was hurting me and pounded it into his body. He didn't like it very much,
He was crying for mercy, just like I was before.
Norfsheng ignored him just like he did before and just ignored him. He tore him into several pieces and ate them, then spat them out. It was so unpalatable.
My father wanted to run away, but Nuofosheng caught him. Those who had hurt me were all beaten up by Nuofosheng.
Later I started to dance, and the rest of the people danced with me, and I”
Constantine's eyes were full of ghostly light, "Okay, Astra, I know everything. Go to sleep, take a nap, and Novel will leave soon. Uncle John promises you, my little baby!"
He gently left a gentle kiss on her forehead, and the little girl fell into a deep sleep.
At this time, Benjamin, Chase, Rich, Judith and others also came.
A few people left the smelly underground dance hall and gathered at the top of the stairs to analyze the matter again.
“Astra summoned the demon Novoseng, and then used her subconscious hatred to drive the demon to take revenge on those who hurt her.
I suggest calling the police immediately. Seventy or eighty people died here.
If you don’t want to become a murderer, you have to get rid of yourself first.
Bring Astra to a safe area, and I'll help her exorcise the demon." Harley concluded.
The other people immediately cast strange looks at her, "Harry, is this your first time exorcising a demon?"
Harry's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he had exposed his ignorance of common sense?
With a calm expression on her face, she said: "Now that you know my true identity, you will naturally understand that I did say some big words when I was Diana.
But I beat the horned dog demon to death with my fists, and I also picked up the corpse of the demon viscount. The blood of the demon that Archbishop Marvin drank was obtained by killing the demon viscount with my own hands."
Because of her status as a boss, other people had some things to say that were difficult to say, so Constantine had no worries.
“You must have never exorcised a demon on a living person! Astra is not an ordinary person possessed by a passing demon. She summoned the demon at the cost of her own soul.
If we take her away from the scene, or wait for the summoning time to pass naturally, or destroy her summoning ritual, no matter what we do, as long as we interrupt the ritual and let it end, the devil will take her soul back to hell."
Hearing this, Harry also reacted.
She was indeed inexperienced and got the "patient's" condition wrong.
Strictly speaking, Astra is not possessed by a demon, but is paying the price of black magic.
Therefore, ordinary exorcism rituals, such as sprinkling holy water, pressing the cross, and reading the Bible, are all ineffective.
Just like the night at the Gotham Cathedral, Harley entered her deathbed transformation for the first time and felt like she was being watched. Her body was chilling, even if her consciousness was baptized by the light of heaven, it was completely useless.
“John, what are your plans?” Understanding this, she humbly asked for advice.
"Harry, maybe we have to learn from your black bosses' behavior this time." A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Constantine's face, and he said coldly: "The highest level of default is to kill the creditor!"
Harley said: "What misunderstandings do you have about Heibang bosses? How can a boss who loses credibility on the hey road and makes a living as a fool live?"
On the other hand, the GCPD, as a theoretical white policeman, does not need the credibility of the white police, so it can pursue short-term goals and often do treacherous things."
“That’s not the point!”
Constantine waved to Benjamin, a boy with a crew cut, and said, "Give me the Magic Book of Truth."
Benjamin directly handed over a large backpack and said with a smile: "I brought a full set of exorcism equipment, most of which I got from Harley's house."
Several other people are also full of excitement.
Zed frowned and said: "When I was comforting Astra just now, I found that about one-third of the souls have been infected with demonic aura.
It will be very difficult to expel the Norfolk without harming Astra, so perhaps we should pray to the Lord for a miracle."
Constantine said strangely: "Zed, are you not crazy? We are the only ones who study black magic, mess around, and have fun, and regard the traditional ethics developed from Christian doctrine as nothing. What angel is blind?
Will answer our call."
Harry's heart moved, and she thought of the female guardian angel, Boss Zha.
