The Death Knell

Tommy didn't participate in the two people's affairs, so after finishing the late-night snack, he could only sit naked in the living room, eating and reading magazines to pass the time.

His magic ability is not as good as those two, and they were both very excited today, so he will not participate in this event to avoid being squeezed out by their joint efforts, which is not good for his health.

About half an hour later, the bedroom door opened, and the man and woman walked out neatly dressed. Zatanna's face was red, while Constantine's dark circles seemed to be heavier.

But that's not the point. The key is that the two of them have reconciled and are now holding hands.

In fact, in the eyes of outsiders, these two people behave like mental patients and are unstable, but in fact this is very common in the magical world. What people say may not necessarily match what they do, and what people see with their eyes , may not be the truth.

Constantine felt guilty for killing his friend, probably, since Zatanna was the only one who could feel his guilt, and was used to using her body to comfort him, making him feel better and making everyone feel better at the same time.

That's pretty much what it means, just get used to it, there are no normal people among wizards.

"Did you have fun?" Tommy put down the potato chips in his hand, stood up and hugged them: "John, you must have something serious to say, right? Wait a minute, I'll put on my clothes first."

"It's okay, I can talk about business while watching you get dressed, because the matter is very simple, just one sentence - we have to get out of here as soon as possible."

The room was not big. While Tommy went back to the bedroom to change clothes, Constantine leaned against the bedroom door and spoke:

"Something is going to happen. You two will follow me to Limbo, hide in the House of Mystery, and leave this multiverse immediately."

"What happened?" Zatanna rubbed her face to make the blush dissipate faster: "I can't figure out why you went to Lucifer to make a deal. What did you find? What did you talk about?"

"The past few days have been like a trip to a popular holiday destination that you can't go back from, from miserable to terrible, my dear." Constantine lowered his head and lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and then zipped up his pants. : "I can't even tell you what everyone is facing. It's up to you to see for yourself."

As he spoke, he took out the notepad from his windbreaker pocket, opened it to the last page, and showed it to Zatanna.

The witch frowned. All she could see was the weird symbol XXXX, and when she was about to say something, Constantine took the notebook back.

"Okay, no need to ask, I can tell from your expression, Xiao Zha, this is also something invisible to you. Lucifer can see this, but we can't. You know what this means What, the 'Great Flood' in which the gods will destroy the world is coming, and this time, it is different from the previous ones."

He pushed the cigarette from his mouth into Zatanna's mouth, physically and verbally blocking what she had to say, or at least that was his intention.

But Zatanna is the most powerful witch on Earth right now, and she has a very tough personality. There is no way she would back down just because of something like this.

After spitting out the cigarette in her mouth, she raised her hand and gave Constantine another slap in the face, cursing: "I won't leave. Next I will go find Xiao Dai, you coward, take Tommy and run away." .”

"Ahem, bah." Zha Kang spat out a mouthful of black blood, but he was used to it as he was in the advanced stage of lung cancer: "There's no need to look for it. Wonder Woman is not here, Batman is not here, and Deathstroke is not here either. Do you think there is a possibility?" …Have they run away?”

"Oh, put away your clumsy provocation. Xiao Dai can't escape from any enemy. She is an Amazon warrior." Zatanna took off her bowler hat from behind the door and looked around the whole room.

But this is a temporarily rented safe house, not her family's old house. Naturally, there are not many magic props, only a hat that can conjure rabbits.

"It's simple. It's not the first time Deathstroke has knocked her unconscious. She may really not want to leave, but after being hit with a pan, does it still have to be her decision whether to leave or not? Haha."

Speaking of the past when Wonder Woman was knocked unconscious by Deathstroke again and again, Constantine was actually happy, because this was a spectacle that was never seen in the past, in the days without Deathstroke.

Zatanna stopped talking. She suddenly realized that what the man said made sense. Although her good sister was usually very strong, Deathstroke had many ways to deal with her.

It was not impossible to knock her out and take her away, so the witch remained silent.

"You don't want me to knock you out with a pan, do you? Ahem, I'm not that kind of barbaric man, but a British gentleman. Usually only women hit me, and I don't hit women."

Zha Kang had a greasy smile on his crooked lips, and he even winked at Xiao Zha:

"But I'm not discussing this with you, I'm just informing you to follow me to the House of Mystery immediately and think of it as Noah's Ark. Even if humanity becomes extinct, magic can still be passed down by you."

"..." Zatanna now needs to rest and avoid casting spells as much as possible. She also knows that even if she rushes to the headquarters of the Dark Alliance, she may not be of much use and will instead become a burden to others.

Seeing her appearance, Constantine nodded. He took Houdini's key out of his pocket and opened another door leading directly to Limbo on the bathroom door.

Tommy, who was fully clothed, and Zatanna, who was still struggling, were pushed in by his back, and then he followed suit.

Limbo is still the same as before, everywhere seems to be shrouded in gray fog, there are some lonely souls floating in the sky, and the mysterious house in front of it looks like a haunted house, which is very suitable for this environment.

"Oh, I should have brought more snacks." Tommy stood in front of the door and looked back from time to time: "How long has it been since your mysterious house was occupied? Is there anything to eat in it?"

"..." Constantine did not answer directly, but smiled with a complicated expression: "Sorry, dear."

"about what?"

The long-haired man didn't know why, but he soon understood, because there was a group of monsters like little red monkeys running towards them in the fog, and Constantine had already pulled Zatanna and hid in the House of Mystery. He locked the door with his backhand, shutting Tommy out.

The screams stopped suddenly, and blood flowed in along the crack of the door, making the doormats darker in color. Constantine, who was sitting with his back against the door and lighting a cigarette, was pushed to the door by Zatanna. superior:

"What did you do? You killed Tommy! What were those monsters?!"

Zha Kang gave a bitter laugh, shook his head, and fiercely held the witch in his arms, restraining her movements with force:

"Here's the problem, baby, I don't know what they are, I just know they want to take away the House of Mystery and cut off everyone's last escape route... I can only bring a good man here and let him die Here, breaking that agreement with the misclassification of souls is my only recourse.”
