The battle between Saber and Lucifer had begun once again. Although the battle was intense and the demon base in Manhattan was destroyed in an instant, as bystanders, we could see very clearly that the decisive point of this battle was not there, but in Hell!
"Ugh."
Sim, who was busy building a special soul possession formation in Hell, suddenly had a change of expression. The huge rock he was carrying suddenly fell from his hand and hit him in the head. The huge demon kept rolling on the rusty red ash ground of Hell. His body twitched, but he could not even make a sound.
"What's going on?"
Santals wanted to go over and take a look, but he was stopped by Strange. Strange looked at Sim with a serious expression. To be precise, he was looking at the black aura that seemed to be evaporating from Sim's body.
"That's the aura of the Dark Dimension. Don't go over there. It seems … it seems to be infected!"
"Danger?"
Magneto, who was sitting on the side, glanced at the rolling demon. He waved his hand and a dozen thick red-hot steel bars were easily shaped like mud in the hellfire burning in New York. They were like extra-large ropes that were fixed on Sim's body one by one, firmly holding him in place.
The indifferent old man waved his hand.
"Keep working! Ignore him! "
In front of him was a large three-dimensional compound magic circle. Just its radius alone was more than 10 meters. The sealing runes received by the three targets were located in the triangle of this large compound magic circle. In the center, there was an altar built with huge stones.
With the help of a group of mutants and The Devil Gang, the formation was almost complete.
Further away, a black mass of Hell's army was trying to cross the temporary defense line shrouded in a metal storm and magnetic field. But in the face of the veteran mutant leader, they were not enough.
Magneto's release was purely an accident. In fact, when Senator Kelly released him from the special suppression prison at the risk of being attacked by demons, Eric himself had a puzzled look on his face. Judging from what he had done, a life imprisonment was inevitable. Unless the president of this country was crazy, he would not be released.
But after seeing the situation in New York, Magneto finally understood why he was freed.
Because there was no other way. When facing an opponent with a threat level of 100, choosing to ally with a villain with a threat level of 50 was always the best way to deal with it.
Taking a step back, Magneto himself wanted to raise the status of the mutants. He needed to build a country and society for the mutants, but at least he did not need the souls of ordinary people and the complete collapse of the world as a means to achieve his goal.
In the face of this super serious invasion, Magneto was a real good citizen.
They were trying to "recruit" him. Of course, he would not accept it. However, he would not allow the Hellish Coalition to destroy New York. The reason was simple. There were not only ordinary people in this city, but there were also many mutants.
"They can't come! Don't be affected! "
Magneto sat on the cleaned stone, the terrifying magnetic force surging up and down his body tightly surrounded the defensive line. The magnetic field affected the demons and demons that entered the defensive line, making them lose their sense of direction. It was like an extra-large maze. Coupled with Santals' atomization, The Devil Gang's bullets.
In this place in Hell, a new slaughterhouse had been built. As for the flying demons in the sky, they didn't dare to enter this area. Eric didn't even need to aim. He just waved his hand, and the metal fragments accelerated to the extreme by magnetic force like electromagnetic cannons were enough to clear the entire sky in one go.
At least in the absence of the powerhouses in Hell, Magneto is an obstacle that can never be crossed in this area.
"The magic circle is built!"
Alvin Hawkins inserted the last black agate stone into the edge of the magic circle, pushed his glasses, and shouted to the others.
"It's activated! It can be used! "
"Very good …"
Strange turned his head and looked at the gloomy Constantine. "Go, do what you have to do."
Constantine took out the Soul Stone that sealed Mammon's broken soul. He was a little uncertain, as if he still could not make up his mind. But the next moment, a cold touch pressed against the back of his head. Angela was holding Isabella, who was on the verge of death, and holding the gun in her other hand.
"Isabella is going to die. You don't want to die with her, right?"
Zha Kang turned to look at Angela.
"You haven't joined The Devil Gang yet! Why did she speak in the same tone as that bastard? In Hell, this gun can't kill me! "
"What about this?"
Sergues' rough voice appeared beside them, and together with it, a Vulcan machine gun emitting a scorching aura appeared. The completely demonized Sergues easily held the machine gun in his hand and pressed it against Constantine's abdomen.
"You've escaped from me twice! John Constantine, you and I both know what kind of bastard you are. In the past, I would have liked to play with you, but now … You better do what you have to do. "
Sergues' scaly face showed a sinister smile.
"You are not the only Sorcerer here. Even if I cripple you, I can still take over that bastard's soul … So you are not a necessity. Know your place! Bastard! Or else I don't mind helping you figure it out! "
This substantial threat made Constantine's summoned creatures, the incarnations of the 72 Demon Gods, want to rush in and help their master. But this time, Strange held the runic wheel with both hands and stood in front of the Demon God Borl. This Doctor Strange, who had always been good-tempered, showed a rare expression of anger and killing intent.
"Go back! Or I will send you back to the Gloomy Seal! "
Seeing that the people around him were looking at him with unfriendly expressions, and some of them even held their weapons tightly, Constantine felt miserable. He laughed dryly, and under the threat of the machine gun, he walked step by step to the front of the altar. He placed the Soul Stone in his hand on the stone platform that was engraved with various runes.
To be honest, Constantine planned to run …
Zak Kang knew very well the consequences of using a human body to bear Mammon's soul, the King of Hell, Lucifer's desire fragments. The worst case scenario was that they would be directly controlled by Lucifer's will, lose their freedom, and become immortal and incomplete carriers of his will.
The best outcome would be to break away from his previous life and become neither a human nor a ghost. Moreover, there was a high possibility that he would be forced to stay in hell. Splitting a soul fragment into three carriers was something that had never been attempted in the history of exorcists. Therefore, no one knew what the consequences would be. However, one thing was certain … At least for Zha Kang, it would do him no good.
"Hum."
The purple Soul Stone floated above the stone platform in a special way, and the purple light lit up this huge Runic Matrix bit by bit. In the three small composite Runic Matrices around the triangular formation, the unconscious Isabella, Angela, and Constantine were ready.
Uh … Zha Kang's hands and feet were tied up, like a pig being tied to a steel pole. He was inserted into the center of the Compound Magic Formation. This fellow's character was so vile that everyone present was clear about it. At this moment, no one dared to place their hopes on Zha Kang's conscience.
Because this guy didn't have that thing at all.
"This might be a good thing …"
Constantine turned his head and looked at the machine gun behind him that had been set up and aimed at him. He clenched his teeth and told himself not to think about escaping or resisting.
Indeed, other than the hundred disadvantages of this matter, there was only one advantage. If he succeeded, the soul that he had always wanted to save … Cheryl Constantine, his sister who was trapped in Hell, would no longer be a problem.
Then there was only one problem now.
Sacrifice himself to save the biggest mistake he had made in the past ten years.
Or … Should I let the mistake continue?
He reached out his hand with difficulty and touched his chest that was aching faintly. Thinking about the doctor's judgment, as a guy who only had a year left to live, he felt that there was nothing he couldn't let go of.
Every bastard that couldn't be hated carried a tragedy that couldn't be ignored.
"Then … come."
"Clang."
The purple Soul Stone that floated above the stone platform in the center seemed to have sensed Constantine's will, so it shattered in an instant. The originally sharp and slender cone was broken, and it flew towards the three people along three completely different trajectories. With the stone in the center as the origin, the purple energy drew three horizontal lines in the air.
The crystal floated in front of the three of them, seemingly confirming something. Strange held the Book of Solomon and stood outside the array. He raised his left hand, formed a seal, and loudly chanted an incantation.
Accompanied by the sound of the incantation, the one who progressed the most smoothly was the unconscious Isabella. As the former carrier of Mammon, her compatibility with the power of the Devil Child was almost natural. The fragment landed on the back of her right hand and quickly fused into one.
Angela's crystal did not go well. The shard landed on the back of her left hand. The process of merging was very painful. Angela knelt on the ground and covered her head. However, probably because the twins' souls came from the same source, after struggling for a few minutes, the shard also merged into her flesh.
"Come on! Accept me! "
The worst was Constantine. His hands and feet were tied, and there was no way for him to touch the shard. The shard seemed to look down on Constantine and let him shout at it. It just circled around Constantine's body twice and floated in front of him.
Constantine watched as the shard began to crack slowly and showed signs of splitting again. Obviously, it did not choose him, so there was a trace of joy on the edge of disappointment.
But the moment the smile on his face disappeared, just as the Soul Stone was about to split into two pieces, a white, beautiful, and obviously woman's hand suddenly appeared in front of Constantine and pressed the crystal on his heart. It was rough and simple, as if it was a disobedient child and directly beat it up.
Facing this power that was far beyond its own, the Soul Stone did not struggle but obediently integrated into Constantine's body. It was so fast that Zak Kang could not react at all. A special power had begun to flow in his body, slowly healing his body, and at the same time, the crack in hell slowly disappeared.
"No!!! Ancient One! I hate you!!! "
On the other side, Lucifer dodged the dark blade storm rolled up by Saber's weapon. After Domam really went all out, Saber turned from an ant to a wild dog in an instant. Although he was still not as good as Lucifer, if the Lord of Hell was not careful enough, a piece of flesh would be torn off on the spot.
Under the harassment of this level of energy, it was already impossible for him to safely control the fusion of dimensions.
"Enough! You stupid bastard! Is this Domam's answer to me? Good! Watch me tear you apart! "
"Kneel at the feet of the Lord of Hell!"
Lucifer's wings spread, and a super-large inverted pentagram array appeared under his feet. In the dim sky above his head, black lightning flashed in the sky. This was bound to be a powerful counterattack. Saber stirred the dark power in his body to form an energy shield in front of him. He was ready to defend.
But in the next moment, just as the attack was about to arrive, the remaining power in Lucifer's body that was enough to destroy New York in an instant suddenly shrank, like a punctured balloon, and began to leak quickly. His eyes twitched, and he looked back at the Hell's Gate above his head.
The dimensional crack, the gate that connects hell and the main world, was shrinking at a very fast speed.
The dimension … recovered!
"No! It shouldn't be like this! "
Lucifer completely lost all his arrogance at this moment. He looked at all this with a dumbfounded expression, and then roared at the sky like a beast.
"Bastard! You can't just … "
"Pu!"
A cold blade pierced into his heart from behind, and the black flames wrapped around the blade jumped and licked Lucifer's body. The cold voice rang in his ears, like the voice of hell with hidden bitterness.
"Ahaha! Look at who this is … Look at our Lord Lucifer, what happened to Your Excellency Morning Star? Why have you become so weak? Look at you … "
"Kneel … for me!"
"Bang!"
Saber's left hand pressed hard on Lucifer's shoulder, and he kicked Lucifer's left leg, forcing him, who had lost most of his strength, to kneel on the ground with one knee. He looked coldly at this guy who was doomed to fail, and he bent down, as if he was praying, and also as if he was saying goodbye softly.
"As noble as you are, as lowly as you are … Old man, your time has long passed …"
