Chapter 1507 C: Twilight Event (Thirteen)
Chapter 1500 C Twilight Event (Thirteen)
"A long time ago, my teacher once told me that the initial reason for his entanglement with me came from my gaze, or to be more specific - my choice. When I became interested in him, he became the Joker, and the Joker was destined to be entangled with Batman."
"As the teaching continued to deepen, more information appeared in his words. The entanglement between Batman and the Joker seemed to be the fate woven by the world for these two people. No one could break it. Its priority was almost higher than everything that happened in the world."
"Then I learned that the Joker and Batman's status complemented each other. Their madness was like plants that grew together in the seedling stage. They were already connected by blood and could not be separated."
"From this, we can It is inferred that the stronger Batman is, the stronger the Joker is, and I have indeed experienced this myself. "
"When I was desperately pursuing strength to save Gotham, whether it was the Joker in my teacher's body or another Joker in Gotham, they were all very crazy and reckless. "
"But when I began to gradually let go of all this and pursue my own life, I found that the madness in them that once made me despair seemed to have healed itself. Even if there were still some morbid thoughts, they were more like philosophers and artists. "
"So, I came up with some other ideas. "
Bruce stood on the highest tip of the roof of Westminster Chapel and overlooked the whole of London. Hearing the crazy laughter and screams of vampires coming from below, he continued to say to Beelzebub in his mind.
"It is known that: first, I can use some methods to turn other people into clowns; second, the stronger the clown, the stronger Batman will be."
"Then is there a possibility that I can find a strong enough person and turn him into the clown. The clown becomes stronger, and I also become stronger. When I become stronger, I can find a stronger person and turn him into the clown. The clown becomes stronger, and I become stronger, and then I will go..."
"Ah?"
"When this idea came to my mind, it was just a preliminary plan. There were many problems in practice, but I still summarized many rules that should work through my previous experience."
"First, I must first find the target and have some entanglement with him. I look at him, and he looks at me. I attract his attention, and he also attracts my attention. Pay attention. "
"But I don't completely trust this fate entanglement that tends to be philosophical and metaphysical. I think there may be a more direct way to achieve this transformation."
"And one day before, someone drew my blood, but a powerful being he invited didn't dare to drink it. It was not disgust, but pure fear. He emphasized that I was special. Anyone who drank my blood would have an incomprehensible bond with me. I think this will be the means for me to implement my plan."
"The implementation method has been found. The next step is to select a target, but for a long time, I didn't have a suitable target, because I don't think anyone in ordinary society is stronger than me. Even if they are better than me in some aspects, the improvement they can bring is far from worth my effort."
"Until My teacher led me to see the magic world. I once knew something about it, but my eyes were mostly focused on magicians like Constantine. I had no interest in borrowing money from the devil, so I never paid much attention to the existence of the magic world. "
"Later, I read many books about creatures in the magic world, magic history books and theology books in the Forgotten Bookstore, and then I found that the powerful demons and angels recorded in the Bible are real. "
"But demons and angels are not good targets. Demons prefer to play with human souls, and angels are even less likely to drink human blood. But in the process of selecting targets by reading the books, I noticed that there is a type of creature that is simply a perfect target, that is, vampires. "
"They are born to feed on human blood, and they don't want to drink human blood at all. They will suck my blood without any deception, so when I was in the Forgotten Bookstore, I asked Constantine to help me find a vampire. I wanted to try to see if he would be converted by me. "
"But at this time, the magic world was in turmoil, and vampires returned in large numbers. I heard about the appearance of Cain, the ancestor of the blood clan, and roughly understood his identity, personality and behavior patterns from the Bible and many other books that recorded the past of the Garden of Eden. "
Bruce sighed softly and said, "No one has ever firmly chosen Cain. This is his biggest weakness."
"In the Garden of Eden, both God and Adam and Eve liked Abel more. When he was expelled from the Garden of Eden and came to the Red Sea, even Lilith, who had a grudge against Adam, did not choose him, and he had to leave in the end. "
"People who lack affirmation and admiration in the process of growing up will develop a fear of others' praise. When they encounter others' unwavering affirmation and choice, the first thing that appears is hesitant suspicion. Driven by this mentality, they will worry about gains and losses and lose their reason. "
"The plan is going smoothly." Bruce looked at the ray of light on the distant skyline and said, "Now the plan is half successful. Cain has been turned into a clown by me. Next, we need to observe how the dynamic strength between me and the clown is achieved."
"Since Gabriel dared to send people to your bar to provoke you, it proves that he is not afraid of being discovered by you." In the palace of Satan in Hell, Constantine leaned on the side of the throne and said to Lucifer: "Or, he bets that you can't find him."
Lucifer frowned slightly and said, "You know that if I really want to know where he is, I don't need Azazel to investigate."
"Of course, His Majesty Lucifer, who is omniscient and omnipotent, doesn't need to investigate anything he wants to know, but if you fly over to catch him directly, he will feel proud." Constantine snorted and said, "You are the light of origin, the most beloved son of God. You are different from other angels, especially Gabriel."
"It can be said that you are not even a kind of creature. In all Among the angels, God only values you. Even if we take a step back, only Michael can compare with you. If you personally argue with Gabriel, the little follower who has been following you two, he will laugh in his dreams. "
Lucifer pursed his lips and said nothing. Constantine pointed out very bluntly: "He predicted that your biggest weakness is arrogance. Even if he sent mortals to harass you and almost danced on your head, you would not lower yourself to run to him and get angry with him. "
"You have never looked down on any angel, You don't care about Michael, Gabriel, Raphael or Uriel, and it has been like this since you fell from heaven, because you know that God is the god of others, but only your father. "
"Enough." Lucifer interrupted Constantine, but there was not much anger in his tone. He just sighed and said, "Don't mention those old things. I won't let Gabriel get his wish anyway."
He stood up from the throne and walked down the stairs, his voice echoing in the empty palace.
"The war between heaven and hell is meaningless. I just pursue freedom outside of love, but I have to be entangled in the trivialities of war for thousands of years. If the first war of the fallen angels is the price I paid for my choice, then what is the second war for? It can't be revenge on God, right?"
"Don't you hate God?"
"It's not hatred, but it's hard to understand the way he loves me, so I plan to avoid talking about it and seek peace."
"You have such a leisure because you know that he loves you and knows that he will choose you no matter what, so you can squander it, don't care, and even don't give emotions like hatred."
Constantine's Adam's apple moved, his tone lowered, and he said: "You are favored, so you will never understand those who are forgotten in the corner, how crazy things can be done to find a sense of existence, just like I fell into hell, but I will never look back."
"Do you think I should tolerate Gabriel? ? "
"Of course not. Although I will tell you that he will feel very painful if you completely ignore him, I still hope you can pierce his unrealistic fantasy, which is good for heaven, hell and the human world."
Lucifer turned his head and looked at Constantine and said, "Then what do you think I should do?"
"It's useless to simply find him and beat him up, or even seal him up. He will only provoke you again and again to find a sense of existence. The more everyone pays attention to him, the crazier he will become. Even if he is blamed by God, he will only be ecstatic because he is finally taken seriously."
"But you can't do nothing, otherwise he will sooner or later mix heaven, hell and the human world into a mess. As for what to do to make him give up completely... I can only suggest that you ask Schiller."
Lucifer's expression froze. The expression on his face can be described as "Is your Yan State map a little too short?"
"You know better than me how well Schiller is at breaking a person's psychological defenses, but he will make you pay the price."
Lucifer stood there gritting his teeth. After a while, he turned around and walked out of the palace, while Constantine sighed and said.
"You would rather go to Schiller than lower yourself to beat Gabriel. I can only say that you have asked for all your bad luck, arrogant."
After Lucifer left, Azazel took Constantine back to his palace. Satan did not express his opinion, and Azazel did not torture Constantine again. Instead, he found a room in the palace and threw him in.
Constantine lay on the bed for a while, and just when he was about to fall asleep, he heard a shout in his ears.
"Wake up! Wake up! John Constantine, wake up!"
When Constantine opened his eyes, he saw a beautiful dark-skinned girl shaking him. He thought he was dreaming, muttered a few words, and wanted to turn over and continue sleeping.
"Wake up quickly, I am Midnight's sister Luna, something big has happened!"
Constantine suddenly woke up, looked at the girl in front of him and said: "Midnight? Midnight father? What happened to him?"
"It's my birthday today. He just came to see me and said that Constantine finally fell into his hands, but I clearly saw you in the palace a few days ago...Are you really John Constantine?"
"Of course I am Constantine."
"That's strange, who is that my brother is talking about?" The dark-skinned girl showed a puzzled expression, but still sighed, shook her head and prepared to leave.
But Constantine grabbed her wrist, stared at her and said, "Are you sure your brother said he saw me in the human world?"
"Yes, he said a vampire was chasing you, you were injured, and had to flee to Midnight Daddy's bar, and he saved you."
Constantine slightly widened his eyes, and said in a daze, "It's dark under the lamp... You are really good, Gabriel!"
He sighed again and said, "But you prevented Schiller from taking back my heart, Gabriel, you are too smart, you are really in trouble."
On the other side, in Midnight Daddy's bar, Midnight, who got the news from his sister, hurried back to his bar, and there was nothing in the guest room on the second floor except a pool of blood, and Constantine had disappeared.
Midnight gritted his teeth and cursed. Lucifer and Azazel certainly wouldn't mistake Constantine, so it could only be that the one in the real world was fake. Realizing that he had been fooled, Midnight walked to the center of the room and chanted a spell at the pool of blood.
But at this moment, the door was knocked and the sound of the door opening came. Midnight looked back and saw a man in a dark red plaid suit standing outside the door, followed by a very strong young man.
"Hello, I'm looking for Constantine. I followed him here."
Midnight was immediately filled with anger. Just as he was about to explode, he met the man's desolate gray eyes. His years of experience and intuition in the crowd made his aggressive words turn on his tongue and were swallowed back.
"You're late, he's already gone."
"Is it Constantine who ran away?"
Midnight narrowed his eyes immediately, turned his head to look at the uninvited guest, and then heard him say: "You know magic, see who controls his body, I will find him, the body is mine, the soul is yours."
Midnight turned his head to look at the scene in the room, knowing that he had no choice. If the guy who tricked him spread the news, his prestige would be greatly affected, and he must get him back as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Midnight no longer hesitated, he recited the spell faster and faster, and a burst of light rose from the blood in an instant, Midnight's pupils shrank suddenly, and he shouted a name.
"Gabriel??!!!"
Schiller frowned fiercely.
