Martin Variety in American Comics

"Xiao Za, these are three friends I just met!"

Constantine walked directly into the backstage and introduced Martin and the others to Zatanna who was removing her makeup.

"My name is Martin!" Martin tilted his head, poked his head out from behind Constantine, and waved to Zatanna.

"I am Taiwu, the poor Taoist priest, nice to meet you!"

Taiwu saluted in a formal manner, neither close nor distant.

Zatanna was very surprised to see the two Taoist priests following Constantine. She did not notice them at first, and her attention was attracted by Rachel.

Rachel's blood had just been stimulated by the teachings of Lei Lingzhu and Martin, and she exuded a faint magic power. Although it was not much, its nature was very special.

As a great wizard, Zatanna saw the demonic power emanating from the girl at a glance.

It was not until Martin and Taiwu introduced themselves that she noticed the two Taoist priests.

"When will someone like you be able to mix with the Taoist priests of Dongda!"

Zatanna looked at Constantine suspiciously. Although she was friends with Constantine, she was also scared by the troubles he caused.

Especially the Taoist priests. They are different from the magicians in Europe and America. Those who have achieved success in cultivation are all people who strictly abide by the precepts. They can't stand guys like Constantine who have all the five poisons.

"We met by accident!"

Constantine saw that Martin and Taiwu had no reaction, so he pulled Zatanna away and whispered a few steps away: "I went to Detroit to take an exorcist job, but I ran into the magic power of the daughter of the Three Palaces Demon. Then the two Taoist priests fell from the sky and I was captured by them."

Zatanna tilted her head slightly, looking at the two Taoist priests standing like pine trees, and said puzzledly: "These two Taoist priests don't seem to have any evil and cunning temperament. How can they capture someone like you?"

Constantine was full of black lines!

What does this mean? If those two Taoist priests are not evil and cunning, then I am!

Yes, I am such a person!

Constantine, who was very self-aware, ignored the matter and whispered to Zatanna: "Don't look at these two Taoist priests who look honest, but they are more cunning than the other. Especially the round-faced Taoist priest, who looks cute, but is cruel when he fights!"

Zatanna did not respond to Constantine's complaints, thinking that what he said might not be true.

To be honest, even she sometimes couldn't help wanting to beat Constantine up, let alone others.

"What do they want?"

Zatanna didn't continue to worry about Constantine's character, after all, that guy didn't have such a thing.

"Spirit Pearl!"

Constantine saw the power displayed by the Thunder Spirit Pearl and the Water Spirit Pearl, and realized that the thing was indeed not an ordinary thing. If it was circulated in human society, it would cause trouble sooner or later.

"Their sect lost five spirit beads, which are wind, thunder, water, fire and earth. The thunder spirit bead is in the hands of the daughter of the Three Palaces Demon, and the water spirit bead was taken away by the Los Angeles Spirit."

"The daughter of the Three Palaces Demon just got the thunder spirit bead and was able to directly destroy a space created by the demons. Just now, the Los Angeles Spirit used the water spirit bead to turn the "Sleeping Desire" into nothingness."

Zatanna frowned.

"Let's not talk about the daughter of the Three Palaces Demon for now. The Sleeping Desire was blessed with countless magic by those who sold intelligence. It is no different from a fortress. The city spirit can defeat them, but how to turn the Sleeping Desire into nothingness?"

"Martin said a lot of principles described in the books of the University of East China, which may be similar to Thales' theory!"

Constantine can understand Mandarin, but it does not mean that he can understand the classics of the University of East China.

"The point is, we can't let these spirit beads fall into the hands of the people. We must help them find something as soon as possible?"

One of the few serious things in Constantine's life is to collect those out-of-control magic items and throw them into the mysterious house to prevent them from posing any threat to human society.

Zatanna became friends with Constantine for this reason.

"So you came to me for this!"

Zatanna looked as if she had suddenly realized something. In fact, she had already understood the intention of Martin and his group.

She stretched out her right hand, palm down, clenched her fist, then turned her fist over, opened her fingers one by one, and a cyan bead appeared in her palm.

When the cyan bead appeared, a breeze naturally arose in the house, gently brushing everyone's faces, making them feel a little more excited.

The thunder spirit bead that Rachel carried with her also emitted a faint light, and electric currents briefly appeared in the air, and then disappeared.

When Zatanna took out the Wind Spirit Pearl, Martin grasped the hilt of the Double Dragon Sword, worried that she would have the same symptoms as the Los Angeles Spirit and fight for other spirit pearls at all costs.

But Zatanna was normal, and the Thunder Spirit Pearl and the Wind Spirit Pearl did not show any extreme behavior. They flashed a few times to show their friendship, and there was no other movement.

"What's going on?"

Martin looked at Taiwu in surprise, and both brothers had such thoughts in their hearts.

But after being surprised, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Zatanna's normality overturned their previous worries, that is, what happened to the spirit pearl in the process of crossing the world.

Now it seems that the reason why the Los Angeles Spirit came to compete for the spirit pearl is just her own reason.

"Last night, a hurricane suddenly appeared in the theater. After I used magic to dispel the hurricane, I found this bead."

"Since it's yours, take it back!"

Zatanna extended her hand to Martin, openly and without any lingering feelings, and did not want to take it for herself because of Constantine's description.

Constantine wanted to say something, but Zatanna extended her hand, so he could only hold back his words.

Martin reached out and grabbed the Wind Spirit Pearl, picked it up easily, threw it into the air and caught it again, and after doing this three times, he put the pearl into his sleeve.

The Wind Spirit Pearl did not treat him any favors, except that it had a stronger control over the wind spirit, there was nothing else.

Martin had tried it as early as when he was in Shushan, and was not surprised by the result.

Zatanna had no lingering feelings for this heaven-fallen thing. After Martin took the pearl back, she said, "You may not know me, but as a great wizard, I have the responsibility to prevent mysterious things from harming ordinary people."

This responsibility does not belong to all magicians, but Zatanna inherited it from his father Giovanni Zatara.

Martin knew Zatanna's story, so he didn't ask any more questions. He nodded and said, "We are short of manpower now. If Ms. Zatanna is willing to help us, I, Martin, will naturally not refuse."

Because Zatanna happily returned the Wind Spirit Pearl, Taiwu was not disgusted with this Yi woman he had never seen before.

Zatanna said goodbye to everyone, asked for leave from the head of the troupe, changed into clothes that were convenient for travel and fighting, and left the theater with Martin and the others.

"I'm afraid I can't help you with the search for the Spirit of Los Angeles."

Faced with Martin's request for help, Zatanna showed a very embarrassed expression.

"The Spirit of Los Angeles is Los Angeles itself. Even if the Great Master wants to locate her specific location, it is almost impossible. Now she has the Water Spirit Pearl you mentioned, which completely blocks the last possibility."

Although Martin offered such help, he actually didn't hold out any hope.

Zatanna shook her head slightly, so he changed the question: "Has she always been this crazy? Or did she start like this last night?"

Constantine interrupted, "I have much more experience than Zatanna in dealing with spirits."

"The city spirit is a complex life. For Los Angeles, she was born during the gold rush, because it was not until then that Los Angeles truly became a city. At that time, he was just like the gold diggers, and he would do anything to achieve his goal."

"Later, Los Angeles became one of the largest industrial cities on the West Coast, and she became an industrial worker, calm and willing to eat. Hardship, can be endured. "

"After World War II, Hollywood's reputation became more and more famous, and Los Angeles became the shape of Hollywood! For decades, no vicious incidents have ever happened to her!"

Martin couldn't help but complain: "No wonder I heard the Los Angeles Spirit speak, a Beverly Hills wife's appearance, pretentious."

"Then why did she madly seize the Thunder Spirit Pearl, the Water Spirit Pearl does not have the effect of arousing people's greed."

"Could it be that the Los Angeles Spirit suddenly awakened its subjective consciousness, felt that living like this was meaningless, and wanted to change its way of life? "

Although Martin said this, he himself did not believe it.

The city spirit does not have any ego and superego. The city is what they are like. If they leave the city, they will die.

Even the spirit pearl cannot change this fact.

No mistakes in one song, one post, one content, one 6, one book, one bar!

Martin and the others considered this problem, and they all fell silent, their brains turned rapidly, recalling various possibilities.

Rachel had no knowledge of the mysterious side, so she couldn't think. She couldn't stand the quiet atmosphere and said, "What's there to think about? As long as we gather the four spirit beads and subdue the spirit of Los Angeles, we will know everything!"

A word awakened the dreamer!

Rachel had no thoughts, so she wouldn't be trapped by the fixed mindset.

"That's right!"

Martin gave Rachel a thumbs up and agreed with her: "As long as we find the four spirit beads first, all problems will be solved!"

He looked around: "It's such a waste for five people to squeeze together!"

"The Earth Spirit Bead is likely in the hands of that cult. My senior brother and I will deal with them. Ms. Zatanna and Constantine, you know the city of Los Angeles and the people in this city. Please ask the two of you to find out the whereabouts of the Fire Spirit Bead."

Martin had asked Dick to collect information about the Los Angeles cult so that they could better target each other.

But Dick said that there are too many cults in Los Angeles. Those stars often become famous at a young age. After becoming famous, they become petty bourgeois, lonely, empty and cold. In addition to taking drugs, they also like to believe in cults to comfort their conscience.

So Dick needs time to collect information, but it takes too long to capture.

"Do you two know Los Angeles?"

Zatanna had different opinions after hearing Martin's arrangement.

"Los Angeles is very large and complicated. You two can subdue Constantine, so strength is naturally not a problem, but you don't know this city, and there will be other troubles besides fighting."

Martin nodded in agreement. At least he didn't know Los Angeles in this world.

Zatanna had the most basic observation of the two Taoists and continued to suggest: "Mr. Taiwu doesn't seem to like women to get close, so go with Constantine."

Constantine breathed a sigh of relief. In his opinion, Taiwu was much easier to deal with than the smiling Martin.

Martin didn't know what he had grown up with. At the age of 18, he was even more difficult to deal with than him, Zhongdeng, as if he could see through all his thoughts.

"Okay!"

Martin thought for a few seconds and agreed to this grouping.

Senior Brother Taiwu really didn't have the habit of dealing with women, and although Constantine was cunning, it was difficult for him to persuade Taiwu.

So this grouping was quite appropriate.

Taiwu glanced between Zatanna and Constantine for a few times, then nodded to Martin, indicating that he had no objection.

"In that case, Zatanna, Rachel and I will go find the cult, and Senior Brother Taiwu and Constantine will go find the news of the Fire Spirit Pearl!"

"Brother, take care!"

Taiwu saluted Martin, then pushed Constantine away like a prisoner.

Zatanna looked at Constantine's helpless look and couldn't help laughing.

It's rare to find someone who can make that scoundrel suffer. Usually, Constantine cheats others.

"Ms. Zatanna, how much do you know about the cult that suffered an earthquake yesterday?"

Martin asked Rachel to stand on his left and talked to Zatanna who was standing on the right.

"The cult is ostensibly a medical research association, but secretly practices blood worship.

Many celebrities and wealthy businessmen have experienced different degrees of rejuvenation after donating their blood. With the facts in front of them, they have attracted a lot of followers."

"In just a few years, they have formed a large network in Los Angeles. Even a great wizard like me cannot easily touch them, otherwise the people around me will be retaliated."

Martin smiled slightly: "Fortunately, I am not from this world and I don't know many friends. I don't have so many scruples when I start to fight!"

Listening to the deep murderous intent hidden in Martin's words, Zatanna suddenly understood why Constantine didn't dare to provoke this young man who looked a little cute.

But Zatanna didn't mean to persuade him not to kill people. There is no good thing about cults. If you die, you die. It doesn't matter.

"The problem is that although this cult has become famous in the past few years, the ones who are active outside are peripheral members, and no one knows where their core members have gone?"

Zatanna has naturally looked for the traces of those people, so she is very clear about their methods.

Martin shook his head gently: "It doesn't matter! It's impossible for me to meet two tough opponents like the City Spirit in one day, right?"

He smiled and waved his hand, showing great confidence in his luck.

The three of them soon came to the city center and saw the collapsed building blocked by the police.

There were many reporters around, but they couldn't enter the blockade, and even paying money couldn't make the police change their minds.

The police within the cordon were carrying something out.

"It seems that we have to think of a way to go in and see what happened inside?"

Martin saw the truck with the police logo and soon had an idea.
