The Death Knell

"Not only is it on time, it's like a magic weapon descended from the sky. Xiao Dai, by the way, why don't you stay on Paradise Island? I thought that after asking for help from the Dark Alliance, the person who came here would be the Man-Bat or the new Doctor Destiny."

Constantine took back Houdini's key, closed the bathroom door again, blocking Gabriel's 'Happy Together', and returned to the store again.

There are crystal balls and some things for sale in the window, such as customized tarot cards or gypsy veils. Mrs. Xanadu is obviously willing to supply goods to new con men.

The streets seemed to have been bombed by bombs. Although Diana did not attack with all her strength, the Starlight Bracelet Collision was once a skill used to deal with Ares, the God of War. How could these large white mice withstand it?

Although we don’t know if they will come back again, when the surrounding snow is also blown hundreds of meters away, it will be safe for a short time.

"Stop talking nonsense, John, let me in, or I will cut in with the Vulcan Sword." Diana stood under the porch angrily, while speaking, she did not forget to look behind her.

There wasn't a drop of blood on her brown cloak, or maybe the white rats weren't living creatures at all.

"Okay, with this tone, you have proven that you are true." Constantine took off the cigarette butt from his mouth and blew it toward the door. Flames spurted out, temporarily dispelling the effect of the purple light circle.

Only then did he smile, and then found a chair with less wood and sat down.

"If it wasn't me, who do you think would be impersonating me?" After entering the store, Diana looked at the witch in the black dress curiously. She had never seen this woman before, but this woman seemed to know her.

Constantine shrugged, put the cigarette back into his mouth with a mean smile, took a puff and said, "Who knows? Anyway, someone was controlled by Hecate last time, and that person was not me."

"Shut up, now is not the time to talk nonsense." Diana glared at him fiercely, then took off the hood of her cloak and introduced herself to the stranger: "I am Princess Diana of the Amazons. Strange sorcerer, where do you come from?”

"Etania, Princess Diana." The witch stood up and nodded slightly to salute. It couldn't even be said to be very polite, more like perfunctory: "I am the witch Lynn. I was once a queen, and I was once famous, but now Just a refugee."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone fell silent.

Diana looked at Madam Xanadu with a puzzled look on her face, because the name Etania was very unfamiliar, it just sounded like an African country?

But this witch is a standard white person, with skin as white as snow and hair as black as sandalwood. If it weren't for the black dress, she would look as beautiful as Snow White.

Nimue shook her head slightly. She could see the future trajectory of some things through tarot cards, but it was not the future of everything.

What she can see and what she can analyze from it all depends on luck. This is all she knows, and she can no longer get any more information from her previous pretense.

The key still depends on Zha Kang, he seems to know something about Etania.

So Mrs. Xanadu hinted to Diana with her eyes, asking her to ask the bitch more things. The witch in front of her couldn't believe it because her smile was too fake.

Constantine was rubbing the bruises on his face, drinking alcohol to numb himself while rubbing it. In just a short while, he rubbed off a lot of dry nails and spread a small gray puddle on the ground.

"Now tell me what you know." Diana walked over and slapped John on the back of the head to ask him to add something.

"You were the one who told me to shut up before, and now you are the one who makes me speak." Constantine shook his head with a smile and sighed: "Woman, your name is fickle, but for the sake of the Vulcan Sword Stand, For my neck’s sake, I’ll just say a few more words.”

"explain!"

Wonder Woman held her breath. It smelled like the trash in the back alley of a fast food restaurant.

Constantine rubbed his wine bottle and licked his lips. He looked at the smiling witch standing in the living room and said bluntly:

"Witch Lynn, also known as 'The Banshee' or 'The Witch' in Etania, is the mistress of the super villain Skeletor and the executor of many evil plans."

Diana's sword immediately changed direction, the shield in her hand was also raised, and she looked at Linn with a warning tone:

"Do you have anything to explain? Or are you planning to deceive us?"

"There is no plan, I am just running for my life." Lin En raised his hands in front of everyone, showing no hostility: "I used to be just a woman addicted to love. I did what my man asked me to do, and I didn't harm anyone in your world. What’s wrong with even a small piece of grass?”

"past?"

With Diana present, Constantine also gained confidence. He had not punctured the window paper just to stabilize this woman. Now he can ask questions as much as he wants.

"Yes, Skeleton King abandoned me because I noticed his evil plan. It was too crazy and would drag each of us into the abyss. I didn't want to implement that plan, so he took away my command. And he sent his monsters to hunt me down.”

Linn sighed and told her story, but there was no sadness in her eyes, only the joy of saving her life.

Because she has no feelings for Skeleton King at all.

It's better to say she's a lover than a partner of interest. She likes Skeleton King's Whick Castle, and Skeleton King likes her black magic.

Zha Kang took another puff of cigarette, nodded slowly and thought, and asked after a moment: "But according to my memory, the Skeleton King does not have an army of elemental creatures, let alone crazy rats."

Constantine, who has been devastated by alcohol for many years, can't remember when and where he saw the story of Etania in the past, but he still remembers the Skeleton King who has mastered the power of Huike.

"This has something to do with his evil plan, but I want to make a deal with you. If you are willing to swear to the planet itself to protect me, I will tell you this big secret, which concerns several multiverses and countless The great secret of life.”

Lynn didn't want to say more. She was very sure that these people would want to know. Human curiosity is always strong.

After thinking for a moment, Constantine leaned back in his chair. He turned to look at the heroine beside him:

"Dai, you make your decision, but let me explain first, you just need to think of Skeleton King as another twisted and perverted version of the devil boy. And if the banshee Lynn is prepared, I can't take it from her mouth." Bring out the information."

"Demon boy? Does that mean there is an incarnation of a concept behind Skeleton King?"

Diana took a deep breath. She did not intend to kill this witch. After all, compared with the many lives in the multiverse, it seemed more cost-effective to make this deal to obtain information.

Constantine put out the cigarette in his mouth, lit up a new one, coughed twice and said: "Maybe it's worse than that, because I can't remember many things from the past. It's like I was hit by something." Something covering my eyes.”

Wonder Woman, who had already made a decision in her mind, sheathed her sword and nodded to Linn: "We will protect you, but not here. Come with me back to the Justice League headquarters. I will convene a meeting and make arrangements for you. Guest room.”

There are many ‘guest rooms’ there, and there’s even a presidential suite called the Phantom Zone.
