American comics start with Zha Kang’s apprentice

"In the Bible, things are recorded in chronological order." Pharamon, the old god of Babylon, said while driving.

Chen Yu, Constantine and Pharamon are now driving in the vast Gobi Desert. The white desert reflects the rising and setting sun, emitting dazzling crystal light. And time, time seems to be going backwards, but Chen Yu knows that they are not traveling through time, they are more like tracing forward along the spine of a certain book outside of time, they have spanned all the time. At the center of the overlapping pages, they become outsiders and spectators.

"I heard such a statement from the Sons of Dawn, and my observations in the Quantum Archives also confirmed this." Chen Yu calmly looked out the window at the outline of the mountains submerged by wind and sand on the Gobi Desert, "Time has passed. It is meaningless, it is more like the thread that connects every story, and we are just the elements in the story, and those worlds are the colors that fill it. Like good and evil, like conspiracy and war, like opposition and contradiction. "

Pharamon looked back and smiled, with a gleam of light in his small eyes, "Yes, Mr. Chen, but I am not testing you, I am stating a fact. Because you see, we are going on a long journey, And I am an old god. We all follow the rules. These are the rules that were set at dawn. We are bound by the rules and we are loyal to the rules because the rules give us the meaning of existence. Without it, we are useless. Not even faith can redeem us. So, I would say things are recorded in chronological order, one thing after another, and we have to walk every path we need to take. We have to go back to half a million years ago. The first world, the world before mortals were born, that silent and silent world."

"Put me into my mother's belly and then be born again?" Constantine frowned while holding a cigarette in his mouth. "That sounds great!"

The car turned at this point, but the road remained flat and straight. Their vision was deceived, like a trick in a maze. But the outline of the mountains became clearer at this time. They seemed to be hidden in the world and cut off in half. They stood quietly, waiting, but in fact, they were more like some kind of barrier, blocking the way. of light and darkness.

Chen Yu knew that their destination was among the mountains, which was the passage back to the Silent Land and where humans began to climb toward civilization.

The car suddenly bumped a little, and Constantine complained as his head shook.

Pharamon looked behind, his expression serious, "Odin is catching up. I thought I could keep this secret passage, but it seems impossible now. Sit tight, you two, let's There is no chance to get out of the car. We must break into the crater directly. Mr. Chen, I need you to chop off one of my arms and one of my eyes with a knife. We need to exchange a black stone with the shaman. A pebble from the first world is the beacon we need. Without it, I would be lost."

"Is there no compromise?" Chen Yu frowned slightly.

"Yes, there is always a price to pay for everything. This is part of the rules, and gods are no exception." Pharamon did not feel nervous because of this. He seemed to have accepted his fate, "I need to be thankful that after all, we are still It has some advantages. After all, you will always ask for power from us, but they don’t know that this power comes from themselves. A cyclic system, endless, right?”

The car became more and more bumpy. Even though the road was still straight, the world began to tilt. They rushed into the mountains and rotated upward along the mountain road.

The scarlet sun looked down on this desolate world like a giant eye from above, as if it was trying its best to project the last glimmer of light before returning to darkness.

"Hey! What are those things? Why do I feel familiar?" Constantine turned to look at the dense black spots behind the car. She frowned, and soon she gasped. , "The Xitars! They are those bug villains who invaded Limbo Town! Oh my god! Why are they here?"

Chen Yu also saw those chasing soldiers. The Xitar people actually found a secret road to the origin of human civilization.

"Ah...it seems they have been waiting for us here!" Pharamon also frowned at this time, because just in front of the car, the overwhelming number of Xitars flew from the dying star like a swarm of locusts. come over.

Three huge floating castles also appeared on the sky at this time. Chen Yu felt that those three castles must be the spiral castles used by the Xitar people to travel through time and space, and they were their warships.

Who placed the Xitar people here? Who could predict that Chen Yu would come to this wasteland that has long been forgotten by the world?

"I'll stop them." Chen Yu summoned the quantum magic box.

"No!" Pharamon said resolutely from the front, "What you want is to act according to the rules. If you leave this car, you will make this pilgrimage meaningless and we will not be able to find a way. To the entrance to the first world. So, leave these troubles to me, I will stabilize the situation, and you, Mr. Chen, use your knife to gouge out my left eye now, we have to find the shaman."

After thinking for a while, Chen Yu made the quantum box disappear. There was a knife in his hand. He leaned forward and then steadily brought the knife close to Faramon's left eye socket. "I'm sorry, Sir Faramon." ."

"There is no need to apologize. After all, I chose to be on your side, and I owe Meng a favor. It was he who allowed me to rise again in the world. It's time to return this favor." There was sweat on Faramon's forehead, but he remained the same. He forced a smile.

"You mean Morpheus?" Chen Yu was stunned.

"For me, a dream is a dream. Let's do it, Mr. Chen." Faramon looked straight ahead.

The knife was inserted neatly into Pharamon's eye socket, and then, the old god's eyeball was gouged out. Pharamon only snorted, and while the blood was gurgling out, he kept looking straight ahead, "You know what to do, let it lead the way for us!"

Chen Yu pinched Faramon's eyeball with two fingers, looked out the car window at the gravel road that was beginning to be filled with billowing smoke, and threw the eyeball out.

At this time, the Xitars swooped down in overwhelming numbers. They rode on insects and made piercing screams from their mouths. Those screams converged into a deafening sound of terror.

But Pharamon did not stop. With his face covered in blood, he drove the car into the dark swarm of insects. As the glass began to shatter, he continued to accelerate until the three of them were overwhelmed by the darkness sweeping from all directions.

After an unknown amount of time, those annoying piercing chirps disappeared, and Faramund stopped the car amid the thick smoke, "We're here."

The three people opened the car door and stepped on the rustling gravel road on the invisible ground.

Pharamon looked around, then started walking.

The strong wind and thick smoke, as well as the burning feeling emanating from the furnace that seemed to be very close, made this place feel like the edge of hell.

But soon, the thick smoke dissipated a little, and Chen Yu saw a skinny old Indian woman sitting on the ground beside a huge rock.

The fire in front of the old woman was burning, and she seemed to be making tea. She didn't raise her head or look at anyone, but she held a bloody eyeball in her hand.

"Blue Flint Girl." Pharamon walked up to the old woman whose skin was like dead tree bark and lowered his head and said, "I'm here."

"Ah...strange times." The old woman stared at the flames in front of her with squinted eyes under her drooping eyebags. "When was the last time I talked to a god?"

"Lucifer has been here, right?" Pharamon suddenly asked seriously.

"Ah... you are talking about the morning star, Samael, Ache Hashka who lights up the stars." When the old woman slowly raised her head, her terrifying blind eyes covered with a layer of haze stared at her. Pharamon, "Yes, he came, he dropped a stone in this sacred place, and you are the ripples."
