$1380 Persecution and Temptation
Chapter 1379 Force and Test
While Wayne and his team were still discussing this action, Constantine had to take action.
Although he thought it would be okay to wait for a while, Lasma was no longer willing to wait.
Lasma's approach seemed a bit aggressive, but Constantine had no way to object even if he was reluctant.
Although this action was mostly initiated by Constantine, he was unable to take the lead in this matter no matter who he cooperated with.
This process was certainly bad, but Constantine was particularly calm about it.
Perhaps he had already thought about what he was going to do at the beginning, and knew how he should deal with it.
"Then I will ask again, respected Nephalem Ancestor, powerful necromancer, and guardian of the balance of Sanctuary, Lord Lasma!
Can you really guarantee that you can protect my life in this slightly hasty action?"
There was a bit of squeeze in Constantine's words. In fact, he did not have much confidence in Lasma's guarantee.
In front of him was a portal opened by Lasma.
According to Lasma, the existence of this portal was very hidden.
It was guaranteed that no one would notice them after they passed through.
But Constantine was still full of doubts about this, although this teleportation was indeed different from usual.
At least from this portal, Constantine could not feel any breath from the opposite side. Obviously, this thing had its unique features in concealment.
But Constantine did not take a step, but began to ask Lasma questions.
Such performance seemed to be a delay in time, but Lasma did not seem to care about it.
Maybe Lasma was sure that no matter what Constantine said, he would eventually choose to step through this portal.
Constantine also investigated and understood Lasma's past in his own way, but Constantine also understood that the information he could collect would definitely not be all of Lasma!
Constantine would not be arrogant to think that he could know everything about Lasma, an ancient existence, from the intelligence, and Lasma had proved how powerless he was when facing Baal!
Perhaps giving him time to prepare for this battle would have a different result, but the weakness in the encounter has already proved many problems!
Lasma's hard power is not comparable to those demons and archangels!
This obvious fact is in front of Constantine, and he can't turn a blind eye!
In this case, Lasma's guarantee has lost Constantine's trust!
How can a person who even finds it difficult to protect himself when facing a demon ensure the safety of another weaker person?
Constantine is actually a very self-aware guy. He knows very well that what he does is dancing on the edge of a knife!
It's just that he didn't have more trump cards in the past, so he could only choose to put his soul and life on the gambling table!
Only by doing this can he have the qualifications to gamble with those who are much more powerful than him!
But now the situation of Nephalem is grim, but because of the existence of Bulkathos, the current situation is very different from the past!
Humans now have the confidence to overturn the table, which is a real advantage in Constantine's eyes!
"No guarantee is certain to succeed. In this case, thinking about this problem is actually meaningless."
Lasma did not give a positive and clear answer, although this statement can be regarded as an answer.
But this answer can be regarded as confirming Constantine's concerns. Lasma is not even sure of his own protection!
After saying this, Lasma pointed to the portal with his chin, urging Constantine to go over quickly.
At this time, Lasma's performance was not as stable as his tone.
This matter is really of great significance to Lasma!
"Then do you mind if I seek other protection?
I think you also know who can really guarantee that we will not die in the aftermath at this time."
Constantine said cautiously.
While speaking, he moved forward a little, as if doing so could make Lasma put away his impatience a little.
This is of course a test, to test Lasma's attitude towards Burkeso!
It is also a test of what kind of status he has in Lasma's heart!
If Lasma couldn't even tolerate his delay, and was unwilling to explain anything, then Constantine would have to consider a worse situation than the worst he had originally expected.
However, Constantine still had some confidence in the matter of Bulkatho.
Although Constantine knew that his personality and other things were not very pleasing to Bulkatho, he also knew that his beliefs were recognized by Bulkatho.
So if Bulkatho was involved in this matter, he might suffer a little, just like when he faced the half-demon of Dr. Reed and Ms. Susan before.
But there was really no need to worry about his life safety!
Although Bulkatho could not be said to be biased out of utilitarianism when dealing with guys like him, he would never let a staunch Nephalem die easily!
This is not "a necessary path for a Nephalem to grow up", but an important decision that may reverse the current weak status of mankind!
At this time, Bul-Katho will never tolerate the Nephalem's power being weakened, and more importantly, Bul-Katho has the ability to do this!
“I don’t want my affairs to be related to Bulkesso and the others, but if it’s just to protect your safety, I won’t refuse.
I just want you to know clearly what you can tell them and what you must not reveal at all. "
Rasma said this very easily, without any hint of threat, and even his expression was the same as before!
But Constantine felt like he was being strangled by the throat. That feeling was simply terrible!
In just a few seconds, Constantine's clothes were already wet with sweat!
Even the hair became strands stuck to the head!
Constantine sighed secretly in his heart. He knew that this was Rasma's threat and a warning!
Now he has created his own legendary Nephalem, but he still acts like a weak child when facing Rathma's intentional threats!
At this time, he finally had a clearer understanding of the fact that "there are gaps between legends"!
It's just that Constantine is still not sure what Rasma's threat is. Is it because he mentioned Bulkesso? Or was it because he was stalling for time and causing Rasma's dissatisfaction?
"Haha, of course I understand."
Constantine wanted to say this in his usual frivolous way, but when he said it, his tone became weak!
He didn't even know how hard Rasma had used to threaten him at this time. The only thing he could be sure of now was that the gap between the two sides was like a chasm!
Constantine originally needed to continue testing, at least to find out why Rasma warned him.
But under the pressure brought by Rasma, he had to give up further testing!
Constantine could only move closer to the portal reluctantly. He missed the opportunity to test the language, so he could only do it through his own actions!
Constantine stared at Rasma's face, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything from Rasma's expression.
This guy who has experienced a long period of loneliness alone is not the kind of guy with rich expressions. Constantine even wondered whether Rasma had long lost the ability to make expressions.
"In that case, I don't mind if you use your own way to protect your own life. You can do it in any way."
Rasma finally gave a clear answer, but Constantine didn't feel relaxed after receiving this answer.
The source of the pressure is still unknown. It can only be said that Rasma still has some recognition of him.
But this situation is not worth celebrating!
Rasma not only gave him the qualification to find other protectors, but also threatened Constantine that he would pay the price if something goes wrong with this operation!
Rasma is definitely not as kind as he showed before!
Constantine was not surprised by this. A guy who has been around for countless years is either so scheming that it is impossible to fathom, or he is so naive that it makes people laugh.
The former is an ability that those who have experienced many hardships must have, while the latter is only possible for those who are naturally powerful enough to not have any trouble!
Those guys who were born in that world, those guys who were born in the eternal war that never ends, they cannot be the latter!
If Rasma was such an innocent and kind-hearted guy that makes people laugh, he wouldn't be like this. Even archangels and demons need to treat him with caution!
"I feel relieved when you say that, but you really don't have any other opinions?"
Constantine continued to try and explore without changing his expression.
It's just that his right hand has been placed on the hand crossbow at his waist unconsciously.
The butt of the cigarette in his mouth kept getting redder, and he kept sucking it hard, just so that he could blow out a smoke screen to buy himself a moment of time when needed!
Constantine's trust in Rasma is basically focused on the fact that the other party will cooperate with his actions, rather than that Rasma will not hurt him!
The cooperation between the weak and the strong is inherently stressful!
It's just that although the pressure brought by Rasma was huge, it was not to the extent that he would give up his plan.
At least as long as he is still valuable to Rasma, Rasma can tolerate all his troubles!
“Of course I have opinions, but opinions may not necessarily affect my actions.
You guys probably don't care about those things, right? "
Rasma's tone became calmer and calmer, so calm that Constantine couldn't help but feel panicked.
In this panic, Constantine could only try his best to behave no differently from the beginning.
Even if Rasma and he were on the same side, Constantine would not be willing to show any weakness to him!
These things can be used as props to exploit him. Constantine often puts himself in the position of a weak person when facing a strong person, but this guy never exposes his real weaknesses!
"That's right, it's useless to care about this kind of thing.
Because I can neither change your mind nor change my own approach.
Then I can only wish that our actions are foolproof, and that we can all get everything we need from this action."
Constantine put on his usual fake smile, and he would not tell Lasma all his thoughts!
They have been a simple cooperative relationship from beginning to end, and there is no need to extend any emotional entanglement on the basis of cooperation!
Both parties are just using each other, and their relationship only needs to stay at this level!
"I'm going to contact the barbarian now, I hope you don't mind."
Constantine said in a very polite tone.
He wanted Lasma to avoid it a little, but he couldn't make such a request to Lasma.
He has lived too much cautious life, and now he is just repeating the past.
However, if one day he can get power that is superior to Lasma, he will definitely let Lasma feel this feeling.
As for how to get more powerful power, Constantine gradually had an idea.
He got the power of Nephalem in his own way, so he might be able to seize other powers in a similar way!
The division of the Crimson Universe by many parties happened not long ago, and there are many powers similar to the Crimson Universe in this world!
The white magic represented by Vishanti is only one kind of magic power in this world, and there is also a demon god Xisong who represents black magic!
Xisong's strength is indeed strong, but it is only on par with Vishanti!
Although Constantine's current strength cannot guarantee that he can defeat Vishanti, the gap between the two sides will never be greater than the gap between him and Lasma!
As long as the method is appropriate, the possibility of success is not small!
"Of course I don't mind. I won't be angry even if you say bad things about me when you contact them.
Compared to hearing you insult me, I don't want to miss your communication.
It's more important for me to make sure you don't say anything you shouldn't say."
Lasma's mouth corners were raised, like a mockery and a smile.
Although Constantine was not surprised by this, he was also a little disappointed.
For the parties that have been confirmed to be involved, Constantine is undoubtedly the weakest one!
And if you want to get the biggest gain with the weakest party, then it is inevitable to use some means.
Lasma's approach only cut off Constantine's opportunity to try to get more help from the barbarians, which is not difficult to accept.
But Constantine couldn't show anything on the surface. He just nodded to Lasma in front of him, and then took out a phone directly.
Although he could open a portal to Harrogas, he didn't intend to let the barbarians know that he was with Lasma now.
Any gap in intelligence may help him at a critical moment.
Taking advantage of information asymmetry is also Constantine’s forte!
