American comics start with Zha Kang’s apprentice

Chen Yu and Constantine stared at each other for a moment, until with a roar, a rotten monster jumped out of the dark woods. It broke through the gray-white ocean of souls and pounced angrily like a violent beast.

"Shit! Get this damn broken car started!" Constantine rolled up the window in fear, "These rotten bastards! Can't even the evil spirits kill them?"

"Uh... I thought they would recognize me once I used magic." Chen Yu said very calmly.

Constantine was stunned for a moment, and then started cursing.

The "dead soul" began to become restless, and it wanted to jump out and eat the feast that was delivered to the door.

But "Dead Souls" are also part of the "Book of Magic", and these products of "Decadent Blackness" are all connected to its essence. Once the "Dead Soul" appears and eats the monster, "Black of Decay" and those large forces will know everything in an instant.

"Okay! Damn it! I've never tried this magic before!" Constantine rubbed his hands and took out two cards from his pocket. "This is when I got high and entered Wonderland on Midsummer Eve. The time-travel experience coupon I got from a little goblin! This is extremely dangerous. Once we get lost, we may... okay! It's better than that guy tearing off my skin!"

Chen Yu curiously suppressed the restlessness of the "Dead Soul" while watching Constantine put the two cards in front of his eyes and stared at them.

"In the name of Titania, Queen of Fairyland, open the damn door to me!" Constantine shouted irritably and nervously, "I am willing to offer a drop of blood from this guy Chen Yu. You know, this is demon blood! It will definitely fetch a good price at the Goblin Market! So..."

"Wait, why is it my blood?" Chen Yu narrowed his eyes.

"Do you have to ask questions at this inopportune time?" Constantine glanced frantically out of the car window at the terrifying monster that had almost reached the front of the car, and the disgusting tongue that kept extending. "I had some trouble with the elf at the time. ...Okay! I stole something! And I didn’t leave part of my memory behind! I broke the rules over there! So I have to return the favor!"

It really is a scumbag.

"I think what you stole is definitely the reputation of a certain elf." Chen Yu said lightly.

"Damn it! You and I agree! We were all drunk that night! Do you agree or not?" Constantine saw that the monster had stepped on the hood of the car.

There was a violent tremor.

The creature cackled and raised its pale paws, covered in mud and rotting fungi.

"I agree." Chen Yu whispered.

Ignore the slight sting of the gas shielding charm.

Immediately afterwards, a dark red thread made of blood snaked out from Chen Yu's neck, and finally got into the two cards in Constantine's hand.

Constantine quickly closed the two cards.

At this time, the monster broke the car window.

As broken glass flew, the world seemed to slow down.

Chen Yu could see the monster stretching its arms in slow motion and the crystal clear glass shards spinning and fluttering.

Suddenly there was a jolt.

"...We can be heroes, just this day! We can be our true selves, just this day..."

David Bowie's "Heroes" sounded clearly from the radio.

Mixed in with this was the honking of car horns.

The monster disappeared.

"Hey! Are you crazy! Silly boys!"

Chen Yu turned to look to the right, where a man opened his arms and complained angrily.

Am I on a highway? The simple hut behind the man is...a gas station convenience store?

"How... is this done..." When Chen Yu asked Constantine, he saw that the broken car window in front of him had changed from a highway to a street at night.

A group of people wearing scary giant monster hoods walked past holding torches and various grotesque graffiti paintings. They seemed indifferent to the sudden appearance of the pickup truck.

"I didn't see us..." Chen Yu blinked.

"What are you talking about, boy?" Constantine was holding a cigarette case in his hand.

However, the box of cigarettes Chen Yu gave him had long since disappeared.

Where did he get this pack of cigarettes?

"Where are we now? Thersdyk? Or..." When Chen Yu looked up, he found that all the people in the parade had disappeared, and he and Constantine even switched seats.

Now, Constantine was driving with a cigarette in his mouth and no longer panicked.

"...The sound of gunshots whizzed past our heads, and we kissed passionately, as if no one was around..."

The only constant is David Bowie's songs being played on the radio.

Neat but crowded streets, ancient buildings and modern civilization.

"Welcome to London, Chen." Constantine grinned as if he was back at home.

The time has not changed, it is still night.

But... without even realizing it, we had entered London from Thursdyke.

"Time and space... have we traveled through time and space?" Chen Yu asked very curiously.

The "Book of Magic" suddenly became restless. It turned the pages and stopped at the blank page.

It waits.

Every special experience seems to cause some changes in the "Book of Magic". It seems to be absorbing this energy and knowledge, and then feedback it to me in a concrete way.

So this time...

"No, boy, this is not traveling through time and space." Constantine said with a smile, "The contract made me forcefully pull time and space in front of us. I said that very powerful magic is extremely precious. Damn it, I thought I can keep it forever.”

"But I didn't feel the fluctuation of magic." Chen Yu was very puzzled.

There are no colorful magical essences or complex network veins. It all seemed to be done instantly and smoothly.

"This consumes the magic of Wonderland, which is not in the same dimension as us. At least that's what it should be. In short, at the moment when the magic is cast, we and Wonderland are temporarily in the same dimension. All that's left is to check the tickets and set off. Constantine puffed out smoke, "Just think of it as flying."

Constantine suddenly threw a ball of waste paper to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu unfolded it and saw the gate composed of elves and garlands.

The "Book of Magic" suddenly flickered, and two bloody hands seemed to reach out to Chen Yu in consciousness.

What? You want this expired piece of paper?

Chen Yu raised his arm slightly, and in the blink of an eye, the wrinkled paper that merged into two cards disappeared.

In Chen Yu's consciousness, a door appeared on a brand new page of "Book of Magic".

The left side of the door is covered with thorns and vines, the right side is covered with dead bones and rotting reptiles, and in the center is a deformed head like an ET alien.

"Chapter 4 The Road of Flesh."

Chen Yu finally understood where the disappeared monster had gone.

The right side symbolizes the "green of all things", the central pattern symbolizes the elves in fairyland, and the pile of rot on the left... that is the symbol of the "black of decay".

The monster was sacrificed to the new magic of the "Book of Magic" and disappeared into the extradimensional time and space.
