A small glass bottle was placed on the right side of the dinner plate, which contained Zatanna's soul. It was obvious that Miss Magician was full of amazing vitality even when she was locked in the bottle. She looked at Kang with very worried eyes.
Standing.
Apparently, Zatanna woke up earlier than Constantine, and she witnessed everything Schiller did.
She couldn't say that the two demons fighting on Constantine had made a bad start, because demons always do this, and magicians should get used to it, but if it weren't for their fierceness and aggression, the food on the plate wouldn't be the same now.
There would be such an obvious evil breath coming out, and she could hardly hide in the bottle.
Zatanna is always compassionate. Even if she was turned into a vampire, she still had time to worry about Constantine's situation when she couldn't protect herself.
This damn rotten man may not be able to escape unscathed this time, but even at this point, Zatanna can't say it's a completely good thing. She knows Constantine, and if he had never been involved in the vampire incident, Zatanna and
No soul like Zan will appear here.
It felt like he couldn't fool him this time, Zatanna thought to herself, because the other party was not Batman and would be much more difficult to deal with than Batman.
But Constantine still seemed confident. He lowered his hands naturally, not caring about the rope tied to his body, and even clicked his tongue and asked: "Is there any cigarette?"
"Do you have to smoke to talk?"
"What do you want me to say?" Constantine sniffed. The hooves on the plate exuded a charming smell of spices, mixed with the strange meaty aroma and the evil smell that the magician could smell. This was very important to Constantine.
Din's olfactory system is a challenge.
He is the kind of person who can finish a meal with a sandwich, and he has never smelled the aroma of such complicated food.
"I won't ask you to tell me all the information like Batman, because I know you will never tell me everything. You can choose what you can tell and treat it as a reward for me to treat you to a meal."
Schiller's attitude was incredibly kind, and Constantine could not see any trace of the monster in him that had just slammed him into the wall like a truck and slit his throat.
The three-piece suit he was wearing was worth at least tens of thousands of dollars. The marlin brooch was probably made of platinum, and the blood on it had been washed clean. The silk of the tie reflected a hidden light, and the Windsor knot was well buckled.
The same goes for the Adam's apple.
Constantine laughed softly and said: "I want to thank you for inviting me to this meal. I don't often sit at the same table with a big shot like you."
The words were serious, and if the eyes were not so direct, it would sound like a qualified flattery, but combined with the fact that the man's name was John Constantine, it sounded more like teasing.
Schiller sighed softly and said: "I don't like to threaten others with things, but your companion is still in the bottle. Considering his situation, you should also remove your brain from the pool of yellow waste."
Fish it out."
Constantine's body stiffened slightly, and he looked at Zatanna in the glass bottle. Miss Magician was sitting cross-legged in the bottle, resting her chin on her elbow, as if she was waiting to see how unlucky he would be.
"It seems like she doesn't need my help very much." Constantine said: "She has long been accustomed to not counting on me."
"Really? I think this bottle is very suitable to be turned into a seasoning bottle, and the roasted goat's hooves are best suited to add some pepper."
"Don't! Okay, you win." Constantine shook his head like a dog trying to get rid of water from its ears.
"I don't know who the King of Vampires is." Constantine said, "I'm not lying to you, because it's not good for me to know who he is. If Batman finds out, he might read my mind.
So I simply let myself not know."
"But I know something about this vampire revival. What do you think of the blood theory?"
"No special opinion."
"Okay, but I don't think you are such a boring person. I can give you an example. A rooster with red feathers and a hen with blue feathers gave birth to a chicken with red and blue feathers.
Chicken with colored feathers.”
"So the chicken community thought, if I find another hen with orange feathers and combine it with a chick with two-color feathers, will I be able to give birth to a chick with red, blue and orange feathers, and so on?
Sooner or later they will give birth to a phoenix."
"The King of Vampires is this Phoenix."
Schiller was silent as expected.
"I know this sounds very stupid to anyone with normal scientific knowledge, but vampires are a very special group, and this method has certain operational possibilities for them."
Constantine was lost in his memories, and after a while he said: "The vampires are mainly divided into two factions. The Dracula faction is derived from Cain. Because of his blood, he is born with the ability to use shadow magic."
"Bloody Queen Mary is another kind of vampire. Rather than being a vampire, she is more like a contractor of blood magic. They suck blood not to fill their stomachs, but to gain powerful power."
"The two groups of vampires have always been incompatible, which is also the origin of the legend that vampires are divided into the Camarilla and the Devil."
"Because the Dracula sect is a blood vampire, they don't need to suck blood every day. They can fill their stomachs by sucking blood about once a month or two. Shadow magic does not have strong attack power. Transforming into a bat is one of its most famous abilities.
, because they have a long history and have their own social rules, they are more like the secret party in the legend."
"Queen Mary contracted with Lilith. This crazy woman sucked blood crazily in order to gain stronger power. Her descendants also inherited her madness. They could spend an entire night capturing dozens of humans to open the door.
Carnival of blood.”
"Because it has a crazy mind, it has not been around for long, and its members are all young, but they have mastered powerful power, so they act unscrupulously and are crazy beyond measure. They are more like the devil's party in human legends."
"The battle between the two parties consumed a lot of vampires, and also fully curbed the development of the crazy demon party, so it did not cause much turmoil to human society."
"But it's just like what is written in human vampire romance novels. A young man from the secret party fell in love with a girl from the evil party. Their marriage was strongly opposed by both families, but their ending was not as good as that of Romeo and Juliet.
Tragic, the two fled to a small city in the East to settle down, and even had a child."
"Later, two people died in an accident, and the child stayed. When he grew up, he discovered that not only could he use shadow magic, but he was also proficient in the power of some blood magic."
Schiller frowned slightly when he heard this.
"This has to be mentioned about the principle of magic..." Constantine deliberately made a long sound, then moved his arms and said: "It's a bit uncomfortable for me to be tied up. Can you untie it for me first?"
Schiller came over and untied the rope that tied him, but at the same time he said: "I don't think you need to worry too much, this is your home, I'm just a guest."
"You'd better be really aware of this." Constantine rubbed his neck with his hand. There were two obvious pinch marks on the side. When he touched it, he took a breath of cold air.
"Ordinary people always envy magicians and think magic is omnipotent, but in fact it's not that simple. You can't use any magic without the consent of the power owner."
"In the past, ordinary scientists wanted to use modern technology to generate enough energy to achieve magical effects, but the fact is that you can use this energy to power a cleaning robot to clean, but you can never use it.
Cleaning magic, because you don't have permission to use it."
"This kind of permission can take many forms. For example, the elves in the world of Maya have all kinds of strange bloodlines. Some are even created by God himself. The bloodline is equivalent to their permission."
"In fact, human beings originally had the blood of God's creation, but because Adam and Eve were kicked out of the Garden of Eden, it was equivalent to God depriving all descendants of Adam and Eve of their magic license. If you want to regain the sacred magic license, you have to hold important positions in the church.
Or pious enough."
"Humans contracting with demons is equivalent to getting a license from the demon. Although the price to pay is quite high, it is not a huge loss because it is easy to give the license but difficult to take it back."
"For example, I have the magic license of almost all the demon kings in hell, so even though I am notorious in hell and almost no one is willing to provide me with power, I can still rest on my laurels and become a magician."
"Normally, this license cannot be gifted or transferred, nor can it be robbed. You can rob abilities and magic items, but you cannot rob the license. Only the source of power can give you this thing."
"From this point of view, it is amazing that the offspring of two vampire parties have two magic licenses at the same time. There are many people who contract with devils, and I have never heard that after two people get married, the offspring can have the permissions of their parents at the same time.
Proof, this thing cannot be inherited. Otherwise, if Xiao Zha and I get married and have children, wouldn’t our children be invincible in the world?"
Zatanna in the bottle knocked on the glass to ask Constantine to be respectful. Constantine smiled at her nonchalantly and said, "It doesn't matter whether the child is strong or not."
"Ahem, I'm a little hungry." Constantine picked up the cutlery and cut off a little bit of meat, picked up the glass bottle, and stuffed it in along the mouth of the bottle.
Zatanna was a little disgusted at first, but Constantine said: "This stuff is good for restoring your soul energy, so you should eat some."
Zatanna reluctantly took a bite, showing an expression of surprise, and her voice came from the bottle, "I know you are testing poison on me, but thank you anyway."
"You should thank the chef." Constantine put the bottle down and began to eat with confidence, saying as he ate.
"It is very unfortunate that one day this child with two kinds of magic was discovered by Blood Queen Mary. She caught him and asked him how he had these two abilities. The child was very young and did not hide anything. He told the truth.
Tell me."
"Mary immediately realized that this would be an opportunity for vampires to rise, because if vampires could pass on their magical license through union, then there would be no magician on earth who could rival them."
"So, before Dracula's group could react, Mary started her vampire reproduction plan..."
"If I'm not wrong, this plan won't go well, right?" Schiller asked.
Constantine sneered and said: "On the contrary, at the beginning, the plan went smoothly, which gave Mary an illusion and made her do even stupider things."
