Chapter 43 Chapter 43 (Minor Repair)

After all, Master Blight is a mutant, and if you want to figure out what's going on within the FBI, you still have to look to Constantine. But Constantine doesn't want to play along - he doesn't usually act like a good guy in the traditional sense, otherwise his reputation wouldn't be so bad.

"I'm not going," he said. "Guess why I ran away in a hurry just now? I thought you two were with the people chasing me."

Agent Bowen asked, "Who's after you?"

Master Blight also asked: "Who did you offend? The mage in Hawaii?"

Constantine clicked his tongue, with rejection written all over his face: "You, a combination of super-powered death squads and agents, are more annoying than superheroes in uniforms asking for details here. Listen to me, no matter what happens here, it has nothing to do with you. It doesn't matter, I have my work to do - I just want to advise you to stay away, so as not to get involved in any more trouble and blame it on me."

Agent Bowen said abruptly: "Do you know about the Yuwen Church?"

The Yuwen Church is the cult organization that Captain Hugo is currently involved in. Their leader's codename is Captain, also known as the 'Helmsman', which sounds nothing to do with the church's name 'Yu Wen', but it is said that high-level church members occasionally mention a code word when communicating:

——May the remaining warmth of the universe guide your sailing direction.

It sounds similar to 'May God bless you'.

When Agent Bowen first learned about this, he thought the founder of Yuwen Church had a very broad mind. In the 21st century, other criminals are still popular in traditional activities such as bank robbery. The Yuwen Church has begun to predict the rise and fall of the universe, and it can also attract victims with many unintelligible teachings, which is very good.

Constantine's eyes sharpened when he heard the name of the church: "Where have you heard of them?"

Unlike Agent Bowen, who just arrived in Hawaii today, Constantine spent a rather difficult 48 hours on the island.

In order to detect anomalies in Arizona's ley lines, he first needs to find a magic item to save his life. The object in Constantine's vision is called the 'Bell of Cybida', and its ability to hide aura is extremely good - it is said that its user can tap dance under the eyes of hell demons without being discovered.

Oh, it must be noted that for magicians, hell and heaven are real, and many myths and legends are actually historical records. One of the most typical examples is Wonder Woman, who is an Amazon—the Amazons are widely recognized as a fictional nation of female warriors in ancient Greek mythology.

The second example is Thor. Currently, only S.H.I.E.L.D. knows the best news about the Nordic gods. They have discovered Thor's hammer in New Mexico and are planning to study it.

Back to the topic, the intelligence said that Hibida's bell was hidden in a small church on the edge of Honolulu town. However, when Constantine arrived, he found that the priest was dead, the bell was missing, and a group of mages surrounded the church, discussing something heatedly.

The moment he saw Constantine, one of the mages immediately shouted: "Why is Constantine here?! He must have taken the bell of Xibida!"

Constantine: "..."

That's the harm of a bad reputation.

He mourned for a second of silence for the poor priest, turned around and ran away without hesitation, while the mages chased and chased him. They even used sea wind and currents to build a spiritual labyrinth in an attempt to trap Constantine.

The construction method of the maze is extremely complicated. On the contrary, the professional level of the mages is uneven. If it is not so euphemistic, it can also be called poor.

So like a three-year-old holding a gun, this level of trouble is too easy for Constantine.

He emerged from the maze using only the clever use of a compass and a pendulum.

At this time, Constantine was far more confused than nervous. He found out that the mages who were chasing him came from the Yuwen Church - to be precise, these people were not considered mages at all, but could only be described as laymen who didn't know where to get special props.

The magic world is arrogant and attaches great importance to inheritance. They have always looked down on guys like Constantine who steal knowledge and magic everywhere and excel at others. Therefore, they will not recognize the Yu Wen Church.

So I don’t know where the ‘mage’ of Yu Wen Church got the magic props from...

He sat in the tavern and thought about this problem, the vodka ice cubes in his hand clinking, dispelling the scorching sea breeze at noon in Honolulu. It's rare to enjoy a good drink and cigarettes after a chase. The smell of alcohol is overwhelming, the smoke is overwhelming, and everything around is so peaceful.

However, at this moment, something happened again.

Constantine, who was drinking, suddenly felt an unsettling sight coming from behind. He could feel it without turning his head. The eyes had a salty and sticky aura, which reminded him of the moss-covered rocks in the deep sea.

Constantine's hair stood on end for a moment, and he almost suspected that he had unknowingly sneaked into the forbidden area of ​​Atlantis and met the ancient gods.

For magicians, the lost city-state 'Atlantis' in ancient Greek legend not only really exists under the sea, but also supports many intelligent lives. The Atlantis civilization has been passed down for tens of thousands of years and has developed extremely brilliant magic technology. They have fought against many mythical creatures and sealed dangerous beings that could not be killed in the depths of the ocean.

This may be why many horror legends focus on the deep sea.

As a result, Constantine mustered up the courage to look back, but he did not see the octopus with tentacles coming to preach. Instead, he only saw a middle-aged man wearing a robe, a hood covering his face, and a thin chin covered with stubble. Behind the wine table.

That was the first meeting between Constantine and the ‘Captain’.

At that time, he didn't know the other party's code name, but he just had goosebumps on his arms. Before he could say anything stupid to say hello, the middle-aged man began to recite a mantra in a low voice.

He is by no means the same as the last-rate mages of the Yu Wen Church. The incantations in his mouth contain extremely powerful and dark power, just like the demons from the city of Dis in hell - Constantine used this description because he visited Hell, that couldn't be called a pleasant experience.

In desperation, he could only use a trick again——

He tied his life to that of his enemy. In this case, ideally, both of them will be prosperous and suffer losses. If the middle-aged man wants to kill Constantine, he himself will not get any benefit.

However, the other party's response was completely beyond Constantine's expectations.

Middle-aged people simply abandon their ‘identity’.

From the perspective of people in the magical world, many conceptual things can be turned into tangible things. He took out a ball of light from his chest and threw it into the air. In the blink of an eye, the ball of light disappeared into the sky like a shooting star.

From this moment on, he lost his name, identity and the impression left in the minds of others, and became a real 'non-existent person', and this process is irreversible, unlike Constantine's life-sharing contract. It will be automatically canceled as soon as the time is up.

Because the price is too heavy, almost no one will actively choose to do it except the punished sinners.

Constantine watched this scene and felt fucked up in his heart. After the middle-aged man gave up his identity, the contract was naturally transferred and fell between himself and another unlucky man.

As for middle-aged people? He apparently came after the 'Bell of Cybida' and was convinced that Constantine had taken it.

Those who need this identity-hiding item are either about to go deep into danger like Constantine, or they are facing an opponent that is difficult to solve. Now it seems that middle-aged people are so desperate that they are willing to abandon everything except their lives.

The moment he came to this conclusion in his mind, Constantine had to start running away again, and while cursing God, he prayed that the person who encountered the light ball was reliable enough - otherwise, if the other person choked on drinking water, broke his leg while walking, or died on the road, If there is a car accident... any injuries suffered will be shared with him.

Before he met Agent Bowen and Master Withered, he had just slept for a while. When he woke up and opened his eyes, he saw Master Withered floating in the sky, wearing an old man's shirt and Hawaiian beach shorts. He almost thought it was Yu Wen. The church caught up.

Fortunately, Agent Bowen, who was wearing a suit and tie, looked like a bad official.

Otherwise Constantine would never have stood still.

This story is indeed a bit complicated. Constantine omitted many details, but his mouth was still dry when he told it.

He took great pains to persuade SHIELD agents to stay away from Hawaii, fearing that if someone died here, another soul debt would be charged to him, causing countless subsequent troubles.

After hearing this, Agent Bowen's expression became even more subtle: "Are you going to look for the person who took over the identity of the middle-aged man next?"

Constantine: "I want to find him as well as the 'Bell of Hibida'. I am looking for this person to ensure that the enemy will not attack him first and use the life-sharing contract to threaten me. Looking for the bell is my original intention The purpose is also because now everyone thinks I took it away.”

What a damn bad luck! Constantine couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he spoke.

Master Wither, who was watching, was a little confused: "If you took away the bell, wouldn't you immediately use its hiding function to hide? Didn't they think that since they can still find you, the bell must not be in your hands?"

"Because the bell of Hibida has a special characteristic." Constantine explained, "its former owner never killed anyone during his lifetime, but after his death he caused the death of dozens of people by chance, so the bell he left behind is neutral. Things only favor people who are neither good nor evil, either male or female, or neither yin nor yang.

If you want to use the bell, you need to arrange the ceremony in advance, and there will be a lot of movement. The bell had been placed in the church before and disappeared when I came, so..."

He shrugged: "No one can use it easily. The only possibility is that someone stole the bell and hid it."

After wasting a lot of saliva, Constantine finally ran out of patience: "I remind you for the last time that Hawaii is very dangerous now. I need to set off immediately to find..."

Agent Bowen interface: "We found Captain Hercule Hugo. Great, let's go back to the FBI. I have a lot to explain to you on the way."

Constantine: "?"

**

Hercule went to meet several members of the Yuwen Church who were imprisoned in the FBI. Everyone's reaction to seeing him was very different, either respectful or so excited that they burst into tears: "Captain/Helmsman!"

Time passed quickly without any relief from their confusion, so much so that Hercule began to suspect that the symptoms would last a lifetime - did he really want to be both a detective and a captain?

With this in mind, he walked around the five-story building of the FBI branch with a worried mood. The FBI agents who followed him ignored him at first, but their attitude softened over time.

When Agent Bowen came back, Hercule was turning his emotions into critical power and evaluating several police stations where he had been stationed.

He promised that he would be fair and comprehensively consider the office environment. He was most impressed by the New York Police Department, followed by the Gotham Police Department, and finally the FBI office in Hawaii.

The agent was still a little unconvinced after hearing this: "Our building is indeed a bit old. It was built many years ago, but the facilities in the building are very complete. And isn't the coffee on the third floor delicious? The coffee bean brand was changed just last month."

Constantine, who followed Agent Bowen: "..."

He believed that the focus was definitely not on the coffee beans.

Master Blight was guarding outside the door, and only the two of them came in. Hercule turned back when he heard the voice, but did not nod to Agent Bowen as usual. Instead, in order to adapt to the captain's life in advance, he said in a flat tone: "May the residual warmth of the universe guide your navigation direction."

Agent Bowen was puzzled: "...Detective?"

In the end, the familiar name made people happy!

"Yes, it's me!" Hercule walked over quickly and patted Bowen on the back. "To be honest, I've been in this environment for so long that I almost thought I was really a captain. It seems that you are the most sober person among us, Mr. Bowen!"

Constantine heard the detective speak for the first time.

Open your eyes and look at Hercule's expression: he is so sincere.

Close your eyes and follow your intuition: Damn, he is obviously cursing!

Goosebumps are rising again, very strange.

Agent Bowen was flattered and hurriedly introduced Hercule: "I brought Constantine here."

Hercule's eyes turned to the blond wizard.

The latter found that the eyes of this New York celebrity in Zatanna's mouth were actually very aggressive, but few people noticed it.

The detective did not choose to shake hands with him, but said again: "May the residual warmth of the universe guide you."

The goosebumps on Constantine's arms were dancing. He put his hands in his pockets and stubbornly pretended that nothing had happened: "Don't confuse me with the stupid policeman behind you. What should I call you? Hercule or detective?"

A member of the Remaining Warmth Church was imprisoned in the single room next to them. He shouted in dissatisfaction before the FBI agent: "Disrespectful! You should call the captain His Excellency the Helmsman!"

No one paid attention to him.

Agent Bowen said: "We will discuss the name issue later. There is an expert sent by the A.R.G.U.S. outside the door. His code name is Master of Withering."

Hercule was slightly stunned when he heard this.

A.R.G.U.S.... Argos?
