Chapter 224 Constantine
Maggieson came up from the basement and looked outside.
"It seems that no one has noticed that I have entered the Spirit Time House... but it may be that no one cares about me."
Ancient One's magical attainments are so powerful that Maggieson can't find any traces of her presence.
Maggieson pondered for a moment.
"Although it is highly likely that no one will come to the door because of the Spirit Time House, it is better to temporarily abandon this base for safety reasons."
After dressing up, Maggieson left here without looking back.
At the same time, Los Angeles.
As the City of Angels in California, the largest city in the western United States.
Los Angeles is a veritable big city on the West Coast.
If you are a person who likes to play on the West Coast, then Los Angeles must be a city you must visit in this life.
The climate here is pleasant, surrounded by mountains and the sea, and there are countless beauties wearing bikinis showing their bodies on the coast.
Its grand occasion is not much worse than Hawaii.
But the most praised here is of course Hollywood.
Almost everyone who visits here will definitely have an experience that makes him linger.
The premise is that you must not go to any place other than tourist attractions...
Obviously, John Constantine did not know this well-known unspoken rule, so he had no good feelings towards this city.
Just talking about the reputation of Los Angeles as the "City of Angels" is enough to make him feel sick and want to vomit.
But he can't leave this disgusting city at will, at least not now.
Constantine has stayed in many places in the United States, and he has to leave each city after staying for a maximum of three to five months.
Because there is nothing to do.
Constantine's job is very special. He calls himself a hell detective. Ordinary people regard him as a researcher of mysticism, while people in the magic world regard him as a scum among wizards.
Unlike many wizards, although Constantine has extremely terrible magical attainments, he usually does not actively cast magic.
He prefers to use those seemingly fancy but ineffective holy water, crosses, onions and garlic...
Constantine's profession is to expel the devils and demons wandering in the world, and countless demons have been sent to hell by him.
Unfortunately, not all cities are favored by demons.
At least in Constantine's decades of career, there are actually only a few low-level demons causing trouble in ordinary cities.
There may not be even one middle-level demon in a whole state.
After all, there are three holy temples in Kamar-Taj, which basically eliminates the possibility of large-scale invasion of alien creatures.
Many years ago, he went to Gotham and met Batman, who had just debuted for less than two years. They also dealt with a little demon together.
It was that time that Constantine taught Bruce a lot of common sense about the mysterious side, which led to Bruce making handcuffs to restrain Maggison's magic not long ago.
As for whether the two of them were friends, Constantine didn't know. He only knew that Bruce had never contacted him...
Most of the people Constantine met were vengeful spirits born after death, and some vampires. There were very few demons from hell.
Until he came to the evil city of Los Angeles.
There were so many lower-level demons here that it was outrageous. Even though Constantine had been cleaning them up for three years, he still couldn't drive all the demons away.
Although it didn't take much effort to deal with these minions, Constantine still found it a little unbearable.
But this was not all the reasons why he hated Los Angeles.
What made him extremely disgusted was that there was an archangel sitting in the Los Angeles Cathedral!
Gabriel!
If the fanatical brain-dead people in the Vatican knew that angels really existed, I'm afraid they would have all run to Los Angeles and kneeled down.
Constantine looked disdainful. A city guarded by an archangel was actually the most rampant place in the world for demons.
It can be imagined that angels and demons are essentially the same. They are just dimensional invaders.
They all want human souls.
The only difference is that Heaven guides humans to voluntarily hand over their souls through faith, while Hell plunders souls through deception or killing.
It happens that because both sides want to monopolize the souls of Earthlings, Heaven and Hell are hostile to each other.
Earth has Kamar-Taj led by Ancient One, and neither Heaven nor Hell dares to invade blatantly, but small actions are always ongoing.
It can be seen from Gabriel letting the little demons wreak havoc in Los Angeles that it will only kill those demons above the middle level.
Because lower-level demons cannot kill humans directly, they can only slowly erode human vitality through possession.
The time ranges from a few hours to a month, and there are strong and weak lower-level demons.
This time is enough for Constantine to come to the scene and expel these little demons.
In this way, few people will actually die, and Kamar-Taj will not have enough reasons to tear its face with Heaven.
Most of the attention of the Ancient One is still on Dormammu in the dark dimension. After all, Heaven only wants the soul after death.
But Dormammu wants to swallow the entire earth into the dark dimension.
Gabriel is one of the most important archangels in Heaven, and he really can't do anything to it.
Even if he has the Time Stone, the Ancient One is far from being absolutely invincible. God is not weaker than her. She can't deal with God and Dormammu at the same time, not to mention that Hell has Mephisto waiting for an opportunity.
So for the situation in Los Angeles, the Ancient One can only turn a blind eye.
Of course, this is under the premise that there are not too many human casualties. Once more people die, Kamar-Taj will not stay out of it.
This is the bottom line of the Ancient One.
On this day, Constantine came out of his "Mysterious House" with a cigarette in his mouth. He just received a call from Father Hennessy, saying that he met a demon he couldn't expel.
Constantine is needed to help.
Because of the chaotic situation in Los Angeles, the business of exorcists has greatly increased, and exorcists from all over the world have begun to migrate to Los Angeles.
Constantine is naturally the most powerful one among them.
"Chas, hurry up, we must reach the slums before things get worse!"
Constantine shouted his student's name loudly.
A young man with a childish face drove a taxi over.
"Here I come, John!"
The taxi stopped in front of Constantine.
Constantine opened the door and got in.
"Fuck!"
Suddenly, Constantine cursed, because he found himself sitting on the right seat of the taxi, but he clearly got on the car from the left.
He knew what this meant.
He fell into the mirror space.
