"We can't let those magicians run amok, and more importantly, we can't let them investigate unscrupulously in Gotham. Regardless of whether the extremely evil curse is true or not, this is not in line with the rules of the occult world. We are
You can't break into the house..."
"Rules?" Constantine snorted coldly, his eyes reflecting the golden luster of the wine, and he said: "When you betrayed me, you never considered any rules."
Zatanna moved her fingertips slightly and said: "I also think they did something wrong that year. Constantine, although you are a bad person, you are not a bad person. You have sacrificed a lot to do good things."
, but after all, not all good people in this world are..."
Zatanna looked at Constantine's vicissitudes of life and recalled his young and strong appearance in her mind. She was still very young when she first met Constantine. She was led by her father and listened to his introduction.
It is said that Constantine is a genius that is rare to see in a hundred years in the world of mysticism.
"Genius..." Zatanna whispered: "In this circle, the more genius you are, the sadder you are."
The atmosphere between the two fell silent, and Constantine spoke again: "If your relatives knew that you came to see me, they would be mad."
"More than that, if they knew that I slept with a rotten person like you, they would be pissed to death." Zatanna shrugged and said, "But I don't care, from the moment I realize their hypocrisy.
, I don’t care what they say.”
"So, how do you plan to prevent those magicians from entering Gotham?" Constantine asked.
"Of course it's using magic. What I'm best at is irony magic, but I don't only know irony magic. Do you still remember the blinding method in magic? I plan to create a fog to completely block the spiritual world of Gotham, so that those who
Magicians who are good at taking shortcuts cannot get in, and they will also be shackled when they use magic..."
"So, what do you need me to do for you?" Constantine asked again.
"Let's go, let's find a place and use your best magic circle. We will spread the fog all over Gotham within a week to remind those people in the occult circles who want to invade here that entry is prohibited."
Soon, the two came to a basement. Constantine pointed to the ground and said: "This is the center of Gotham, and it is also the location of the spiritual rift you talk about. Under normal circumstances, I will summon the devil here,
It can save some energy."
"Okay, then we will set up the magic circle here. I have brought the materials." Zatanna snapped her fingers and used her best irony magic: "Show the materials!"
Looking at the pile of materials she produced, Constantine frowned and said: "Oh my God, you don't want to seal off the spiritual world in the entire Gotham area, do you? You...well, I know you are a big lady.
, you are rich and have many treasured magic items, but don’t you think this is a bit too fussy?”
"If you can't do it, you can tell the truth, and I can find other magicians for help. I don't have to blame you, a rotten person." Zatanna had already started to sort out the materials, and Constantine sighed helplessly.
, but finally compromised.
In his heart, he also felt a kind of uneasiness. He had lived in Gotham for such a long time, and of course he could find something strange in this city. This was a place abandoned by demons.
The most greedy demons in hell are not willing to come here. Otherwise, why would Constantine, who is known as a once-in-a-century genius, have to find a crack in the spiritual world to summon demons?
Many demons shook their heads when they heard about going to Gotham. For Constantine, this was equivalent to living in an extremely expensive city with a low income and a lot of debt.
If you don't spend a little more money, no demons are willing to come. When I heard it was Gotham plus Constantine, all the demons came as money-added laymen, and left as if they had just eaten shit.
Those creatures living in hell have the sharpest noses. They don't want to come here. It can't be because the public security situation in human society here is poor. With their special sense of sight and smell, they must be able to feel that there is something special here, which makes them feel uncomfortable.
They feel afraid.
This is a very bad omen in the occult world. If he hadn't discovered that this was a good place to hide from debts, Constantine would not have been willing to stay here.
If, as Zatanna said, it was an extremely terrifying and evil curse that affected this city, then no matter who gets this curse, it will be a disaster. Constantine cannot sit back and watch this happen, just like
As Zatanna said, he is a bad person, but not a bad person.
The rain is getting heavier, and green waves are still rolling on the ground.
Standing on the top of the building, looking at the fog that covered Gotham, Zatanna sighed and said: "It seems that our plan has completely failed. The arrival of the green of all things will definitely forcefully open a channel in the spiritual world.
That group of people can completely bypass our defenses and enter Gotham."
Constantine's eyebrows almost knitted together, and he said: "I have long said that this kind of pure defense method is useless at all. We still have to strike first and find the extreme situation you mentioned.
The curse of evil.”
Zatanna bit her lip and said: "Okay, I admit, I don't trust you. I'm worried that you will use it to do bad things like those evil magicians, but instead of letting them, or my annoying magicians,
If a relative gets something like this, I would rather you get it."
"Thank you so much for your trust!" Constantine said angrily: "Comparing me with those idiots fully demonstrates your emotional intelligence, and thinking that I will use that thing to destroy the world fully demonstrates your IQ."
While the two were bickering, what Constantine didn't notice was that a small vine crawled out along the rooftop door, secretly spread to his feet, and then wrapped around his ankles.
With a "bang", Constantine was pulled to the ground and dragged along by the vines. He turned around and threw the spell, but more vines poured out from the rooftop door.
Zatanna showed no fear and waved her wand, summoning a huge rabbit from her top hat. The rabbit jumped in front of Constantine and bit off the vines wrapped around his feet with a few "clicks".
But at this time, more and more plants were attacking the roof of the building. Zatanna cursed and then said: "How on earth did you offend the green of all things? He looks like he wants to kill you!"
"I don't know!" Constantine got up from the ground and said, "Maybe it was the last time when Red of All Living Things caused trouble for him, I refused to save him!"
"Wait a minute..." Zatanna frowned and said, "I seem to hear the plants screaming... Yes, that's right, my spiritual sense has always been very sensitive, they seem to be screaming in pain... Oh my god
, Constantine, you rotten person! You don’t want to kill the green of all things, do you?!!”
"You can't do this!" Zatanna raised her voice and said, "It represents plants all over the world, is synonymous with green in the universe, and is also the new and emerging god. You can't..."
"Let's go..." Constantine had already rushed to the edge of the building. He turned back and shouted to Zatanna: "It's not too late to talk about those big principles after we all survive!"
But all the nearby buildings were covered with dense vines. Constantine looked up and saw that the entire city had been flooded with green. The infinitely extending vines were like a tsunami, engulfing the city. Buildings, vehicles, and street signs were all covered in green.
The vines wrapped it up.
Those crazy citizens were chasing the same kind of people on the street, but after the vines broke out, they couldn't even move. They could only be entangled in the same place, screaming helplessly.
When Constantine was about to jump off, the sound of helicopter propellers was heard in the air. Constantine looked up and saw the bat-painted helicopter landing on top of his head. Batman said to him: "Come up!"
Looking down at the vines again, Constantine jumped onto the Bat Helicopter without hesitation, followed closely by Zatanna.
When Batman saw Zatanna, he was obviously stunned for a moment, but Zatanna didn't recognize Batman at all.
She just looked at Constantine and said: "You have to give me an explanation. What have you done to the greenness of all things? Plants are an important factor for human survival. If you destroy the plants, the world will...
…”
"Wait, I can explain!" Constantine said: "If the green of all things is coming for me, then he can't just send plants to chase me. You know what level the representatives of these colors are.
If he wanted to take revenge on me, how could he only have this means?"
"Excuse me." Batman said: "What is the green of all things? This lady is..."
"Oh, I forgot. Batman, let me introduce her first. This is Zatanna Zatara. She comes from a very old magic family. Her father is also a magician. She is different from a wild person like me.
, she is a very famous young lady in the occult world..."
Batman was fascinated, looked at Zatanna and said, "Is your father a magician?"
Zatanna suddenly widened her eyes and said: "Do you know the news about my father?? You... wait, your chin looks a bit familiar... Oh my god, Bruce Wayne??!!"
Zatanna took a deep breath, and then froze in place. The atmosphere on the helicopter became a little strange. Constantine said inexplicably: "Za, what's wrong with you? You don't have to worry about Bruce Wayne."
Are you so surprised by En’s identity?”
"Although it is a bit strange for a rich man to dress like this, but compared with those guys in the occult world who dress in strange clothes, is it okay?"
"I... that..." Zatanna suddenly stuttered. She turned her head to one side, feeling that Batman was still staring at her. She paused, lowered her head and whispered: "Okay, I didn't tell you at first.
It's not my fault, but at that time, my father disappeared, so I had to go all over the world to find him..."
Constantine's eyes widened and his gaze flickered back and forth between Batman and Zatanna, but Batman stood up, walked to the back of the helicopter and said, "It doesn't matter, what are you going to do when you come back this time?"
"Oh, right!" Zatanna suddenly came back to her senses and said, "Bruce, you have to help us. There is a very dangerous curse in Gotham, and a group of crazy magicians want to get it!"
"A dangerous curse?" Surprisingly, Batman did not correct Zatanna's title, he just frowned deeply.
Zatanna came to him and tried her best to explain to him: "Yes, it's a curse. You don't know magic, so you may not know this knowledge, but a curse is a kind of long-term effect that is released using a medium.
, magic that will bring various negative effects.”
"The reason why Gotham is what it is today is because there is an extremely evil curse that exists in this city. It will make everything develop in a bad direction, and finally plunge everyone into abyss and hell."
"You should know what a useful weapon this is. For those lunatics who want to destroy the world, as long as they can get this curse, they can destroy the entire occult world, even the human world, the spiritual world and hell!
Batman repeated the name "The Curse" again. Suddenly, his fingers froze. Seeing his action, Constantine immediately said: "You have heard of this curse, right?
?”
Before Batman could speak, Constantine immediately said: "If you have any clues about this curse, please tell us immediately. I swear to you, I will eliminate this curse!"
"Remember what I told you before?" Constantine looked into Batman's eyes and said: "Gotham cannot be saved. There are mystical reasons, but I didn't know the specific reasons at the time, and
This time, the news that Zatanna brought us told us the reason."
"Batman, you have been trying to save Gotham, but if you don't eliminate the influence of the occult, you will never succeed. If you can help us find and eliminate the evil curse, maybe your ideal can be realized.
."
Constantine spoke very sincerely, and very rarely did he insert a lot of nonsense and lies into the truth.
But what surprised him was that when faced with this crucial question, Batman remained strangely silent.
