Chapter 463 Death Is Not Cruel, Zha Kang Appears

Peter listened to the second sister's speech, looked at the cross on the other's chest, and fell into deep thought.

If he remembered correctly, the cross was an ankh.

The Talisman of Life, also known as Ankh, is the letter of Egyptian hieroglyphics, which means life.

Ankh symbolizes life and eternity. It is said that wearing this protective treasure can prevent disasters, diseases and magic, and help the wearer win love and war.

He remembers the death of the Endless Family, and what he wears is the Ankh.

Moreover, the other party's appearance and dress are also similar to death.

Guessing that the person in front of him was the death of the Endless Family, Peter's expression became serious.

Although the woman, wearing a black top and jeans, seemed harmless, Peter knew she was scary.

Legend has it that she has a pleasant personality, is down to earth, bubbly, and serves as the embodiment of dreams.

But she is also the end of life and a friend.

Almost no one can escape death. She is the most powerful of the Endless family and the most iconic being in the universe. She is also one of the most powerful beings in the DC Universe besides God Lucifer.

According to Lucifer's assessment, death's purview extends even beyond creation.

He now has her brother's artifact in his hand. If this woman wants to stand up for his brother, I probably can't stop her now.

Perhaps seeing Peter's vigilance, the second sister smiled at Peter.

"Don't worry, I usually don't get involved in my brother's affairs, otherwise I would have shown up a long time ago. My job responsibilities are very important. It's not just me. Everyone in our family is very busy, so we rarely interfere in other people's work. ”

"Who are you anyway?"

Ruiwen felt strange and asked the second sister.

She could feel the power and mystery of the woman in front of her. It seemed to be the aura of magic, but it was different from the magic in the world she knew.

And it seems that the other party knows his father very well.

Raven asked the other party seriously: "Are you a magician? What is the purpose of approaching here? Are these tentacles caused by you?"

She suspected that the disgusting tentacles coming out of Terrence's mouth were caused by the woman in front of her.

"No, I'm not a magician. As for the purpose of approaching here."

The second sister looked at the corpse on the ground, a hint of warmth flashed in her eyes, "I want to take some people away. When a person leaves alone, they will be sad, shocked and angry. They need someone to accompany them."

When Rui Wen heard what she said, she felt even more puzzled.

She couldn't understand what this woman was saying.

"Riven, come over here."

Before Raven could ask any more questions, Peter called his daughter to him.

Staring at the seemingly harmless "death" in front of him, Peter exhaled and asked her: "Do you know what these tentacles are?"

"Know a little bit."

The second sister said to Peter: "I asked Destiny, and he said that life has not been peaceful recently. People who know magic will encounter some bigger troubles. They will encounter an enemy they cannot face. These tentacles are Warning, but you guys don’t seem to be professional magicians, so you shouldn’t be too upset.”

She glanced at the tentacles on the ground, then looked toward the door.

Exhaling, she said to Peter: "Sorry, I have to go. I hope the next time we meet will not be too close."

After waving to Peter and Raven, the second sister walked towards the door.

Raven watched the other party leave with surprised eyes.

She seemed to vaguely see two figures, standing on each other's left and right, slowly following the strange woman towards the door.

"dad."

Watching the other party slowly leave, Raven asked Peter doubtfully: "Who is she?!"

"I don't know, but I guess maybe she is death."

Peter glanced at the two corpses on the ground, "She sent the souls of dead existences into the void and buried them outside the world. Now death appears here. She may appear for this reason and appear in front of us. body."

When she heard Peter say that the other person was death, Raven was immediately stunned.

"But why doesn't she have the harshness and weight of death?"

Raven thought of Hela, the goddess of death who was placed in hell by Peter.

As the goddess of death, Hela exudes the smell of hell and death.

"She is special, she is a lively and sunny person."

Peter said something that stunned Raven.

"Lively? Sunshine?"

Raven thought about it and felt that these two words had nothing to do with death.

"Hmm, so death doesn't have to be scary and sad, Raven."

Peter listened to the police car bell ringing outside, walked up to Raven and touched her hair, "Maybe death can be kind sometimes."

After leaving the concert, Peter drove Raven and others back.

What happened at the concert made both Star-Lord and Mark a little silent.

They thought they could enjoy a concert, but the two of them didn't expect to encounter something like this.

Seeing that Mark was not in a good mood, Peter comforted him with a few words.

Stopping the car at the traffic light intersection, Peter looked at the TV outside the mall on the side of the road.

News about a fire that happened last night is being broadcast on TV.

"At one o'clock in the morning on Lookout Street, a fire broke out in an apartment building. After firefighters arrived at the scene, they spent 33 minutes extinguishing the fire. Later, they found that a man named Vincent Turner died in the fire.

"The local police and fire department said they are investigating the cause of the fire. A fire department official said that the house where Vincent lived was 87 years old and had no firefighting equipment installed. In addition, there were a lot of papers in the room."

The news video ended with a portrait.

The portrait that Vincent drew, which was intact in the fire, appeared on the TV screen.

Looking at the woman holding the Ankh necklace in her hands in the portrait, Peter was stunned.

When he heard the news anchor say that the deceased Vincent was a painter who had been frustrated for many years, and the work he left behind was considered by experts to be a genius work and would definitely cause a sensation in the art world, Peter's expression became complicated.

After thinking about it, Peter called Bruce.

"Bruce?"

"It's me, sir."

Bruce was in the manor, dealing with the reconstruction of the company damaged in the Battle of Metropolis.

He didn't expect Peter to call him.

"Can you do me a favor?"

"Of course, sir."

Peter started the car, changed the position of the phone, and said to Bruce: "I want a painting, maybe it will appear at the auction, can you help me buy it?"

Peter, who was interested in the portrait of "death", wanted to get this oil painting.

He first thought of Bruce, who had money.

Bruce didn't expect Peter to call for a painting.

He was slightly stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded and agreed.

"Of course, I'll arrange it right away."

Night.

Gotham.

The streets of the city were filled with fog.

Zatanna walked to a remote alley.

She was wearing a windbreaker and wrapped her clothes tightly to resist the invasion of the cold wind.

The phone she took out of the windbreaker pocket, the screen illuminated her frowning face.

"This morning, there was a violent explosion at the Metropolitan Theater. Before that, the three nearest fire trucks were sent to the theater to put out the fire."

The text on her phone described the fire that occurred at the Metropolitan Concert.

The strange tentacle incident that Peter experienced was described by the government as a fire.

"The police have found three bodies, one of which has been confirmed to be the famous singer and actor Terrence Mann, and the other two are concert attendees. Three other audience members were sent to Metropolitan Central Hospital for treatment due to minor burns and smoke inhalation. It is reported that the explosion was caused by the organizer's failure to do a good job of on-site safety protection, and the fire was caused by the leakage of poorly insulated equipment caused by the failure of the stage's exposure system."

Looking at the pictures of the scene, Zatanna frowned more and more.

This is not a fire at all, but an invasion of alien creatures caused by the loss of control of magic.

Putting away her phone, she thought of a scene she experienced during the day.

During the day, she was on the stage, performing the magic of taking a rabbit out of a hat for the audience.

She has performed this magic countless times.

However, as she recited the irony magic, her magic went out of control.

Magic gave way to fear, and countless billowing flames appeared from her hat.

If she hadn't handled it calmly, the theater where she performed magic would have suffered the same fate as the Metropolitan Theater.

Although she didn't know what happened, Zatanna could vaguely sense that the magic in this world seemed to have become a little different.

What happened?

She frowned and walked forward with a heavy heart.

"I heard that you learned a new top hat trick, Xiao Za."

A sudden voice came from behind her, accompanied by the illumination of car lights.

Under the strong light of the car lights, Zatanna turned around and looked at the man leaning against the car and smoking a cigarette.

The man with brown hair wearing a beige windbreaker smiled at her, "Long time no see, Xiao Za."

"Constantine?"

Seeing the man, Zatanna frowned and called out his name.

"Don't call me so intimately, we are not that familiar with each other, and there is only one person who can call the name of 'Xiao Za', and that is not you!"

Zatanna said to the man in front of her without any hesitation.

The person who appeared in front of her was John Constantine, who was described as a "scumbag" by Loki and Star-Lord.

Born in Liverpool, England, this rude mysterious detective specializes in investigating and fighting against magical creatures, powers and gods.

At the same time, because he completely ignores the so-called superhero code of conduct, is eccentric, and acts according to his own preferences without any rules or goals, he is also called "scumbag Constantine".

In his world, there is no justice and morality, only his own interests and survival are the most important.
