Joker's answer was not surprising. This was something a person like him would say.
"Phew …"
Saber let out a sigh of relief. The flames in his eyes slowly extinguished. He waved his hand.
"Go, control them well … Gotham is The Devil Gang's territory. Do you understand what I mean?"
Joker chuckled.
"Don't worry, a dead person won't be interested in those things. Oh, right, there's another piece of news I want to tell you … Two hours ago, in Manhattan's Magician's Black Market, someone sold a Devil Prince's heart at a high price in exchange for a return that even makes me jealous. He even announced that he personally killed the Devil Prince who brought disaster to the human world. Guess, who did that heart belong to?"
"Hmm?"
Saber narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean?"
The clown whistled and said cheerfully, "Oh!
"From what I know, the Sorcerer Supreme didn't ask you to get rid of the Witch Demon. When she passed the message, she was probably fighting against the Evil God Domam in the Dark Dimension. She didn't have time to care about a damned Devil Prince. That poor guy was just a useless piece of trash. You've been used, Saber … Someone tricked you, and you're like an idiot, desperately thanking him for his help."
He turned around and a look of disgust appeared on his face.
"Let me give you a friendly reminder. Stay as far away from that piece of trash Constantine as possible. He's a bastard who only knows how to cause trouble. His sister who was willing to give up everything for him was personally sent to Hell by him. Even someone like me thinks that he's selfish and cold-blooded … There's no one in Hell who doesn't hate him. The Evil Spirits who want to kill him can line up three times around Hell. He's just like a disgusting sticky candy, you can't get rid of him once you touch him."
"Also, you have to understand that the agreement between the gods and devils is powerful. Seeing that you've helped me, I'll tell you one last thing …"
Joker's figure became fainter and fainter, but his voice became clearer.
"There can't be any loopholes in an agreement made by that kind of existence! But now that a loophole has appeared, there are only two possibilities. Either this loophole was deliberately set up by the Sorcerer Supreme, and the purpose is to give those restless gods and devils an unforgettable lesson … "
"Or, it's because the power to maintain this agreement has weakened … Sorcerer Supreme is so powerful that it's beyond our imagination, but her power is not invincible … In the face of time, she will also weaken. Seiber, this is not a coincidence. Be prepared, a chaotic era is coming … The Ancient One will not be able to protect this world forever."
"We should look further ahead …"
As soon as the clown finished speaking, Seiber hesitated for a moment before he shouted, "Let's go!
"Wait, help me stop the ghosts of those 12 gangster bastards … I only need, hmm, 3 hours!"
Joker, whose body had turned gray, looked back at him and asked in confusion.
"Why three hours?"
Saber put on his sunglasses, turned and walked towards his motorcycle. He waved his hand and said lazily.
"Because the plane from Houston to Gotham … only takes three hours."
"Whoosh"
A slight wind suddenly blew from the inside of the warehouse in the Gotham dock area, rolling up the shredded paper on the ground and scattering it left and right. In the darkness, it seemed that something darker had mixed in. It floated on the ground, like a black snake crawling out of a cave, carefully looking at the things around it.
"Hum"
Finally, it had a clear view of its surroundings. It was surrounded by goods that could not speak. It was empty and uninhabited. This kind of dark place where no sunlight could be seen was most suitable for some true dark creatures to settle down.
"Swoosh"
A figure jumped out from the darkness. He was wearing an expensive-looking suit and had gray hair. His left index finger and middle finger were constantly rubbing together. It looked like it was his personal habit.
He stood in the middle of the empty warehouse, the cold wind swirling around his body, as if it wanted to freeze everything around him. His left hand was placed on the container beside him, and a charred handprint appeared there, as if it was ignited by some kind of fire. But if one looked closely, one could see that the water mark was covered in frost.
A red light flashed in his eyes, and he pursed his lips and opened his hands, as if he was reliving the taste of his hometown. Finally, he snapped his fingers.
"Come back, brothers! Gotham is calling for us! "
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh"
The other 11 shadowy figures appeared in the warehouse in various postures. They were wearing fancy clothes. Some of them were dressed like bloodthirsty cannibals. A few of them had severely distorted bodies. Half of their faces were rotten or damaged.
Their appearance alone caused the entire warehouse to be covered in a layer of frost visible to the naked eye. Normal people couldn't do this, so they were obviously not living people.
"Maloney! Why did you call us up here? "
A man whose left hand had turned into a black ghostly claw, dressed like a medieval vampire, looked at Maloney impatiently, his voice like a file.
"It wasn't easy to escape. I don't want to be caught by Satan again because of your mistake!"
"Don't worry, brother Gambol!"
A black flame floated in Maloney's palm, and he looked at the others with a look of disdain and ridicule. "Look at all of you! Four years in hell has made all of you stupid! What's so good about that damned place full of flames and evil spirits? Look here, brothers, this is our battlefield! And now, we have the advantage in terms of strength … Have you all forgotten how the Red Devil slaughtered us? How did he take everything away from us? How did you kill us? "
"Have all of you forgotten?!!"
Maloney's pale face seemed to be burning with a ghostly fire, turning into a terrifying pale blue color, and his eyes shone with a vicious light.
"I admit that we were stupid, so stupid that we fought against that kind of violence that drove people crazy, but don't forget … We are the ones with the advantage now! So what if he's strong? Tell me, how can he kill us with a knife? "
The former blackboard boss, who was now a magic dead soul, cackled, and a cloud of black energy surrounded his body.
"There are eight million souls here … Enough for us to create an army of evil spirits! Humans … Without dreams, what's the difference between them and salted fish? Are you willing to serve Mephisto or Satan for hundreds of years, and then be killed by some random exorcist? "
Maloney's gaze swept across the evil spirits in front of him, and he said meaningfully.
"No! I'm not willing! Look at now … We have the advantage in numbers! We have the advantage! We … have returned from hell! "
"Revenge … Let's start with the red devil! Who's willing to follow me? "
Five minutes later, the ghosts that were so strange that they could scare a normal person to death let out a shrill, maniacal laugh, and walked out of the warehouse. In the darkness, they brought with them a gust of wind that made one's hair stand on end, sweeping everything on the street, and surging towards the deepest part of the harbor.
They howled, they screamed, they did whatever they wanted, they were fearless!
They were ghosts, dead souls that had returned from hell … They were not afraid of anything! There was nothing in this city that could hurt them!
Normal people could not see these ghosts, but they could feel the creepy streets. Hence, the scattered lights went out, and everywhere they went, there was only dead silence.
On the other side, in Saber's mansion.
Saber, who had just returned to Gotham, was a little tired. He leaned on the sofa, and Catherine, who was wearing cute bunny pajamas, was dozing off in his arms. Selena sat on the other side, using the remote control to click on the TV in boredom. Robin went to do her 'volunteer police' as usual. On the second floor of the big house, the children who came back with them were already asleep.
"Will Kevin and Sergues really wake up? Saber? "
Catherine rubbed her eyes, grabbed Saber's arm, and shook it. She had already heard about what happened in Texas from the followers, about the big devil and the Ghost Rider. Just hearing about it was exciting, but the little girl was most concerned about her friends who had been in a coma for four years.
Saber nodded and picked up the wine glass.
"If nothing goes wrong, they will probably wake up in the next two months … Kevin and Sergues's souls were taken away by the big devil, but I got them back … Speaking of which, why did you leave her here?"
Saber's gaze swept across the intersection of the house. There was an oversized aquarium that took up an entire wall, and the fish in the aquarium was not tropical ornamental fish, but a mermaid that would suffocate people at first sight … a literal mermaid. Saber could even see her hateful gaze and the metal chain tied to her nose.
The mermaid from the Mutant Brotherhood … Amanda Moor, the flatfish, was a natural killer in the water, but now she was being kept naked in a special aquarium like … a toy.
"That's my collection, it's one of a kind in this world!"
Catherine leaned her head on Saber's shoulder and said softly, "She can't run away. Professor Hawkins implanted a virus in her body, and she has to take the antidote regularly. Only I have the antidote … Even if I let her go, she won't dare to run away."
After saying that, the little girl turned her head and looked at the flatfish. Her gentle little face was now cold.
"Is this how you treat your master?!"
Her voice was cold, but with a hint of authority. As the nominal leader of The Devil Gang that currently occupied one-fifth of Gotham, nearly a thousand people under her command would move at Catherine's command. In addition to Saber's teachings, in just a month, the little girl had gained a unique aura.
In the face of Catherine's scolding, the flatfish's face was full of humiliation, but in the end, she forced a smile. Selena could not stand it anymore. She reached out and patted Catherine's head.
"Alright … She's a living person, you can't treat her like a pet."
"I'm willing! She almost killed Pixie Pet! This is her punishment! "
Catherine looked at Selena and Saber suspiciously. "You two … Are you hiding something from me?"
"Cough cough …"
Saber choked on the wine that he had just swallowed. As he coughed, he reached for the knife beside his leg, stood up, and looked behind him.
"Since you're here … Come out. I've … been waiting for you for a long time!"
In the shadows, Maloney, Gambol, and the others looked at each other. They were prepared to launch a surprise attack and use their spirit abilities to catch Saber off guard. However, this guy seemed to have seen through their plan.
"Don't worry! He's just bluffing! He can't see us! "
A dark spark appeared in Maloney's left hand. He shouted to the others, "Let's go! Kill him first! Destroy this place! "
Saber's finger tapped the corner of his eye. There was a hint of mockery in his voice.
"Friendly reminder, if you take another three steps … You'll be dead! Yes, you'll die again! "
"Go!"
Twelve ferocious undead lunged at Seiber. Seiber sneered, and his eyes quickly turned dark red with a ring of magma-like flames. When they saw those eyes, Maroney and Gambol, who were the strongest among the twelve, were shocked and quickly retreated. However, the other ten … Seiber was not the only one who was shocked. His eyes turned red, and his eyes turned red.
Boom!
Their sins were easily ignited. The burning pain that rose directly from their souls caused the undead to scream and cry. However, they could not escape. In the face of the Eyes of Repentance, they were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
They were so weak that Saber could not bear to kill them. Even so, when the light in the eyes dissipated, 10 pillars of red flames appeared in the air in front of him. Catherine and Selena widened their eyes. Even Amanda, who was hiding in the aquarium, widened her eyes.
"Four years ago … You didn't know what power was."
Saber sat back on the sofa. He placed one hand on the back of the sofa and the other hand reached out to pick up the wine glass in front of him. He swirled the dark red liquid in the glass. "Four years later, it's a pity that you haven't improved. Spirits? You're so weak! "
"Trash. No matter how much you change, you're still trash."
Maloney, the necromancer, and Gambor, the lowest-level vampire, stared at the scene before them with their mouths agape. They saw from the beginning to the end how their companions were burned to ashes by the damned hellfire. Not a single thing was left behind. Their souls were truly destroyed.
Their souls were shivering in fear. They wanted to run away, but they dared not do so in the face of the unfathomable Seiber. Under Seiber's pressure, their figures appeared in the shadows of the room. The little girl, who saw a spirit for the first time, let out a scream. However, she quickly regained her composure and stared at Maroni who came back from the dead and Gambol who was dressed strangely. Like a curious child, she hid herself in Seiber's arms.
"Go to Arkham Asylum. Someone is waiting for you there. He will tell you what to do."
Saber waved his hand without turning back.
"The next time I see you here … You know what will happen to you!"
"Go away. Send my regards to the King of Hell in Gotham."
