After several months of recuperation, the sequelae of Crisis on Infinite Earths gradually faded away, and more than 20 million people with two sets of memories, the original and the restarted ones, have already started a new life.
After all, life has to go on, no matter which world, workers must work hard in order to survive.
Super criminals are like venomous snakes and beasts that wake up from hibernation in spring and gradually become active, bringing riots and crime to society again.
Superheroes get on duty earlier than supercriminals.
In almost every big city in the United States, at every fire, criminal or car accident scene, uniformed fighters can be seen.
The earth has not become larger, and the number of cities in the United States has not increased, but the five universes have merged into one, and the number of heroes has doubled.
It’s too curly, and I can’t do it without working hard.
In short, this newly born world in the restart has returned to normal operation that is not much different from before...
The same goes for Harley. After ending her depraved days of staying at home watching the American TV series "The King of Valkyrie" every day and secretly feeling proud of herself, she went to the company every now and then to check in and let the employees know that their boss had not yet become a fairy.
She never misses meetings of New York State legislators.
They are also working together to ensure smooth progress in the upcoming election of members of Congress.
Harley is very confident about this.
The King of Fighters Tournament is still held every week, and Harley competes with the standout players to earn a small amount of experience.
If Gotham Cathedral receives an order to exorcise demons, she will also form a "demon hunting team" with Ivy and Carlisle to "subdue demons and eliminate demons" for the common people.
It wasn't until half a month later that Harley saw Constantine again.
"Harry, I have rented a house in Queens and plan to settle down in Gotham."
At this time, Zha Kang was radiant, his eyes were bright, his face was full of energy, and his whole body was full of energy.
He was also well-groomed, with clean shaven hair, neatly combed hair, neatly pressed shirts and windbreakers, and a faint scent of cologne.
"It's better to move to Arkham Island. If the devil attacks you at night, you can escape to me faster." Harley said calmly.
"You think too much and are too pretentious. I didn't come to Gotham to escape disaster."
Zha Kang smiled in astonishment, took out a silk card cigarette case and a brass Zippo lighter, lit one for himself, shook his head and said: "Not only will the demon kings not attack me at night, but if nothing else happens, they will even be afraid to see me.
I will try my best to ensure that I don't die.
Don't forget that the soul contract is only postponed, not suspended.
As soon as I die, those three bastards will have to claim my old soul.
In other words, if something bad happens to me, hell will usher in the greatest misfortune. The three bosses will split up, start a world war, and devastate all the creatures in hell, hahaha."
"You have such beautiful thoughts. Even if I don't kill you, I will torture you in ten thousand ways." Harley sneered.
Zha Kang shrugged and said proudly: "On the day I summoned them, I lost my strength and was at the mercy of others.
Even then, they tried their best and never made me give in.
I swear to you, every waking moment I give Satan the middle finger.
The guy was furious, but there was nothing he could do.
If you don’t believe me, you can look at me. Look how energetic I am, without any psychological shadow or fear of them.”
He blinked at Harley, his eyes as bright as a mirror, and there was no shadow at all.
Harry couldn't help feeling contempt and complaining, and said: "It's Satan in hell. He can't even do something as simple as torturing mortals."
If the three giants of hell heard what she said, they would be so aggrieved that they would want to cry.
They had already subjected him to extreme physical and psychological torture.
If it were any other person, he would be crying for his father and mother. Constantine was also shouting, even "Jesus daddy", but as he shouted, he began to moan with enjoyment.
"Although there is no psychological shadow, I will never forget what they did to me. One day in the future, I will definitely take revenge a thousand times." Constantine said coldly.
"If they hear this, you will probably be tortured every day."
Constantine said confidently: "There is no chance. I am a master of magic. I don't have half of their magic power in my body, and I am not controlled by them. I am strong enough to protect myself, and even resist them and look for opportunities to take revenge on them."
If they could just find me and bring bad luck to me, they would have found me long before I got cancer, killed me, and robbed me of my unique and precious soul.
Humph, if they dare to come here again now, I will dare to destroy their mental projections, or use more humiliating methods.
Old John has plenty of ways to deal with those bastards."
"Aren't you afraid that Belial and Beelzebub would compromise with Lucifer and then arrange for the 'Constantine Hunting Squad' to hunt you down?"
Constantine waved his hands and said nonchalantly: "What's there to be afraid of? As long as I can scare them at that time and let them help me cure the cancer, then the sky will be high and birds can fly, and the sea will be broad and fish can jump."
"
"What if I can't bluff that day?" Harley asked.
A flash of light flashed in Constantine's eyes, and he said calmly: "I can definitely bluff you, because my life is far less important than the boss's face and authority.
Keep me, they haven't completely failed yet, and they have the chance to take revenge.
If I die, the three of them will have to bayonet and see blood.
The winning party only gets the consolation prize of 'the death of the culprit', while the losing party loses power, authority and reputation.
According to the strength of the three parties, Lucifer has an absolute advantage over Belial and Beelzebub. Belial and Beelzebub do not want to lose miserably, and Lucifer does not want the successor he cultivated to be discredited, and his strength will be greatly reduced and he will not be able to fulfill his soul contract.
He and Beelzebub must lose at least 20% of their strength due to the backlash of the contract rules.
Including the magic power they 'borrowed' from you before, they can't afford to lose it!
The two 'little Satans' were not much stronger than the inner dragon, Silas (King of Slaughter) and the others. They lost 20% of their power and hell fell into great turmoil. This was not what Lucifer wanted to see.
Therefore, they must pinch their noses, put the overall situation first, and temporarily let go of me, a non-threatening but disgusting 'slug'."
"If I were Satan, I would never accept threats." Harley said.
Zha Kang looked at her trustingly and said: "But I also left a back-up in your hand. If the worst happens, you will definitely help me get rid of it, right?"
Harley's right hand unconsciously touched the back of her head.
Her 'Arkham God of War Seal' is hidden on the back of her head.
Inside the Huiyin, which is similar to the Grandmaster Space, there is a Heaven Direct Ascension Card.
If the worst happened, she might have no choice but to pinch her nose, suppress her nausea, and send Zha Kang's soul to heaven instead of leaving him to die and be done with it.
"Since you trusted me so much, why didn't you tell me the truth then?"
"Harry, if you encounter similar situations in the future, don't tell me the truth, or even let your mind think about it."
Constantine looked into her eyes and said meaningfully: "You have never doubted that during the Crisis on Infinite Earths, other mages, including Dr. Fate, gathered around you to inquire about the 'Ark of the Covenant', but I didn't even say a word
Didn't even ask?
If you know and I know, it means that heaven knows and earth knows, and if heaven knows and earth knows, it means that the supreme being knows everything."
He didn't need to teach him this truth, Harry himself had such a cautious style of doing things.
"I don't feel very comfortable," she said.
"I can obviously ask for other things in the soul contract with the Demon King, so why only magic power? Isn't it prepared for you?"
"Since you know me well and have prepared delicious food for me, you should also know that I have a big appetite." Harley said.
Constantine glared and said: "The magic power of a soul worth 666 times is already the limit they can bear."
Harley licked her tongue and said regretfully and complainingly: "I mean, you have already risked your life anyway, why don't you pick up the first fallen from hell and the devil from another dimension, the devil, each of them is 666 times
, isn’t it wonderful?”
Constantine said with a dull face: "Sorry, my apartment is too small to accommodate so many big guys."
"Arsenal's home stadium, the Emirates Stadium, is just three blocks away from your apartment. It was three or four o'clock in the morning, and the stadium was dark and there was no one there. You could go there and there were tens of thousands of spectators," Harley said.
Constantine's eyes widened with confusion on his face, "Even if you are joking, your joke is too crazy.
You can imagine using a football field to pretend to be a devil."
After a pause, he said seriously: "Beelzebub, Belial needs to protect the face and authority of 'Satan', but other demon kings can take action at will, so why should I threaten them?"
How big is your 'belly'?
The two Satans each provided 666 times the magic power of the Grandmaster’s soul, but they didn’t even feed you?”
Harley counted on her fingers and told him, "Wonder Woman took away half of my bloodline power. A few days ago, I found several Harley Quinns from another world in the hero's soul using the 'soul preservation card'.
.
I think they have no superpowers, which is quite pitiful, and each of them has given away a lot of "God of War Power".
So, the gods are greedy and never satisfied."
"But last time in the Tower of Destiny, Ghost"
Harley immediately waved her hand to interrupt him and said seriously: "Harley Quinn, I promise you a thousand dollars."
"Haha" Constantine just laughed and said nothing.
"No matter what, you have humiliated three Satans this time, and the consequences will be endless. Your life will not be easy in the future."
Although Harley forced to change the subject, she was telling the truth.
"I have no choice." Constantine said helplessly.
"Why don't you have a choice? Even if you remove the lungs and ask Cyborg's father to replace you with a mechanical lung, it is better than provoking the three masters of hell." Harley said.
"First of all, I am a mage, and the mechanical lung affects the magic power in the body; secondly, I am a traditional person and do not want to turn myself into a cyborg; finally, I have no choice.
I have offended Lucifer,
In Ireland I dishonored Him once.
You are an expert in this field, and you should understand better than me the principle of ‘once you offend Satan once, you must quickly complete the three punishments of humiliation before his revenge comes’.”
At this point, Constantine showed admiration and praised: "Only after trying it myself can I clearly realize what an amazing feat you did back then. I admire you, I admire you."
"Don't slander me, His Majesty Satan punished me severely." Harley said seriously.
Zha Kang gave a thumbs up, "It's not as high as the future troubles, it's high!"
"Compared to you, I'm much worse." He smiled bitterly again, "After I tricked Lucifer into drinking the holy water, I started thinking about how to quickly deceive him or humiliate him twice.
In the end, I only thought of this "killing three birds with one stone" strategy with huge side effects.
The results weren't too bad either.
As long as the Satans still abide by the rules of the game, I can probably live peacefully forever."
"Who is Brendan? Why did you take such a big risk for him and give him my Heaven Helicopter Card?" Harley frowned.
"I happened to meet an old friend I had been dating in the early years and could help. Why not?"
"For the sake of friends, you don't hesitate to offend Satan, and you don't hesitate to take out the heaven helicopter card to save your life? Is this you?" Harley looked full of doubt.
Constantine said seriously: "This is me, a friend who is kind and trustworthy."
