In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 937: Deep in the fog and rain (end)
"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"
Looking at Batman's face, Zatanna shook her head. The youthful and frivolous past was like a cloud of smoke. At that time, both of them were too young and not very sensible, and everything happened just like that.
At that time, the Wayne couple had just died, and Bruce Jr. was in a very bad mood. Alfred invited a very famous magician, Zatanna's father, Zatan, in order to get Bruce Jr. out of his grief. Mr. Ra, come to Wayne Manor to perform magic tricks.
Little Bruce was not in the mood to watch the show at all, he ran through the back door of the hall, went out and ran into Zatanna.
At that time, he was still in a state of stimulation, so he told Zatana about his sadness, and Zatana also felt very sympathetic, and the two formed a friendship like this.
In the years before Bruce went out to study art, the two of them were in a relationship, but later, Zatanna left without saying goodbye because her father disappeared, and she needed to go out to find her, and she didn't want to let the occult world know. Bruce was involved in the matter, so they didn't tell him the truth, and the two separated and never saw each other again.
Seeing each other again this time, the two found that each other has matured a lot, and is no longer the familiar youthful appearance they were familiar with. Zatanna sighed, but as the closest person to Bruce, she could understand The person's expressions and movements.
She approached Batman, looked him in the eyes and said, "You know where the curse is, don't you? Why don't you tell us?"
Batman opened his mouth, then looked at Constantine and said, "You know, who said the last time I heard the word curse?"
"Who?"
"Schiller."
Batman sighed and said: "You should have found out that many Gotham citizens have gone mad, Schiller said, this is a curse, he said he can get rid of this curse, but the method is to use another A more powerful curse."
"A more powerful curse?" Zatanna's face became colder, and Constantine's face also sank, he said: "It can't be that Schiller has already got it...but how... ..."
Konstantin didn't think about the soul of the curse at all, because he and Zatanna are both people in the mystical world, they have very rich knowledge of the occult, and similarly, in the occult world, the soul of the curse Not a curse.
The definition of curse in the occult world is very strict. Simply put, it is a kind of continuous negative magic with a medium. First of all, it must be continuous and medium. More importantly, it must be magic.
The soul of the curse is actually the twin brother that Constantine killed in his mother's stomach.
Soul, spirit, and curse are three completely different things in the occult world, and the soul of the curse can have an effect similar to the curse, not because he casts the magic of the curse, but because of himself special properties.
Constantine himself is unfortunate, he has a special soul, and his twin brother is exactly the same as his soul. Killed, but survived.
This is a very special attribute. It can be understood as a terminal illness that has never been seen in the medical field. I don't know how to treat it.
Schiller doesn't know much about the occult, so he doesn't know that the soul of the curse is not a curse. He told Batman that he has a curse, and Batman doesn't know much about the real occult, so he also thought that Schiller It's a curse.
But no matter what, the cursed soul does not belong to the kind of curse recognized by people in the mystical world, so even if Constantine knew that Schiller took his brother's soul, he didn't think about it.
"I think it is indeed possible." Constantine said with a serious face: "Generally speaking, curses have no substance, but there must be a medium. The goal of these magicians is also to curse the medium. Once you control the medium, you can use the curse smoothly."
Batman was stunned again, and his mind began to flash back to the previous scene. The moment Schiller touched his body with the tip of the umbrella, he felt the emotion like a living thing.
"Umbrella..." Batman whispered.
Konstantin leaned forward with some doubts and said, "What? What word did you just say?"
"I said 'umbrella' . . . the medium is probably an umbrella," Batman repeated, and Zatanna immediately said, "Who is that Schiller? But whoever he is, he You can't act recklessly with this curse, it's very dangerous!"
"Let's go, let's find this man named Schiller and ask him to hand over the medium, and then we will take it away and destroy it. We must not let this dangerous curse harm the world!"
But Constantine, who was originally on Zatana's side, heard that the medium might be Schiller's umbrella, and he said stiffly: "Xiao Zha, sometimes black and white, good The boundary between evil and evil is not so obvious, I think violence is not the only way to solve the problem..."
"I understand your desire to solve the curse, but you must come up with a complete plan, otherwise, I will not allow you to mess around in Gotham." Batman also said.
Zatana froze in place, he glanced at Constantine, then at Batman, and then at Constantine, as if he remembered something, the suspicion and shock in his eyes were like a wave surged up.
At this time, Constantine took the initiative to walk up, put his arms around Zatana's shoulders, and said, "Xiao Zha, you are still too young. Some things can't be achieved by fighting hard, and neither is magic. Almighty, you have to pay attention to the method of doing things..."
"God! It's the same trick again!" Zatanna rolled her eyes, spread her hands and said, "I know you don't like to use magic power to solve problems, and you always like to go around a lot of detours, but , in such an urgent situation, do you still want to tell me these great truths?"
"No, Xiao Zha, listen to me, in fact, this matter... um... have you considered... that is, the plan you proposed to come directly to the door may... meet Then a little bit of resistance."
Constantine stretched out two fingers, squeezed them together, and then looked at Zatana and said, "Have you ever thought that the person who took away the curse medium may not be particularly willing to cooperate with us."
Zhatana said a little puzzled: "Aren't you willing to cooperate with us? Of course he doesn't want to, otherwise, he wouldn't go to get the medium, but he doesn't want to, and it's not that he is holding such a dangerous thing , a reason to wander around."
"If everyone can carry a big bomb and go to all kinds of important occasions, why do we need the police and security? We can't just let criminals kill because they don't want to hand over their weapons?"
Hearing Zatanna's argument, Batman frowned instinctively and said, "...Did he commit a crime with that thing?"
After saying this, Batman froze for a moment, then coughed lightly, as if he was reflecting on how he would say such nonsense.
"The problem is that he may become a criminal." Zatanna knocked on the ground of the helicopter and said, "And we can't bet on whether he will keep his own way and destroy the world without that thing."
"If he wants to destroy the world, he doesn't need that thing..." Constantine said in a small voice, Zatanna's eyes swept over immediately, Constantine shut up, but Batman But said:
"If there is really an extremely dangerous curse in Gotham as you said, then I must find it, but..."
"What's the but?!" Zatanna said a little angrily: "What's the matter with you two? Why didn't you figure out the current situation?"
"Let's not talk about whose hands this thing fell into. Those black magicians will not hesitate here for a long time like us. If they know about this, they will definitely go crazy to find that thing. People, take the curse medium from him!"
"We must take this thing before them, and then destroy it. No matter who owns him, can he still be our opponent?"
Unexpectedly, when she asked this question, Constantine and Batman were silent.
Konstantin put the fingertips of his hands and five fingers together, moved them slightly, and said: "...This question is worth discussing."
"If the holder of the cursed medium is really Schiller, we really can't let him hold this thing." Batman's eyes hung under the eyebrows, he said: "I doubt that he may even I don't know how dangerous this thing is, because he, like me, knows almost nothing about the occult world."
Constantine thought for a while, nodded, and said: "That's true, Schiller may know that there has always been a mystic world that is affecting Gotham City, but he may not know what that thing is, and what it is in Where, perhaps when he obtained the extremely evil curse, he didn't realize that he had obtained it."
"Many items in the occult world have this nature, and it is difficult for ordinary people to realize their danger after they get them."
"Don't most of the plots in the ghost movies you have seen originated from some cursed dolls, or objects haunted by ghosts?"
"In short, if the curse medium is really Schiller's umbrella..." Constantine concluded: "Then you better not expect me to ask Schiller for his umbrella, he can't give it to me, But..."
Constantine set his eyes on Batman, Batman looked back at him silently, Constantine stepped forward again, put his hand on Batman's shoulder and said: "Maybe you didn't realize that you were The weight in Schiller's heart, he is willing to spend so much time on your thesis, maybe also..."
"Impossible." Batman said blankly: "Haven't you found out yet? No one in this world is as important as that umbrella. No matter who asks him for an umbrella, the result is It's all the same."
Konstantin briefly recalled the process of his acquaintance with Schiller, and then recalled the rumors he heard from others. This other person mainly refers to an unknown cryogenic scientist, an unknown restaurant owner, and the son of an unknown godfather.
Then, he nodded deeply, feeling that Batman was right, but soon, he touched his chin and said:
"Since there is no way to ask for it directly, then we can find a way to trick his umbrella over. I am sure that I can get rid of the curse without destroying the umbrella itself. As long as I can cheat him for two or three hours, everything will be solved Already."
Batman's tone suddenly increased a little, and he asked Constantine: "... how to lie?"
Constantine looked at Zatana again and said, "This is not to mention the genius magician in front of us."
"Reintroducing, Zatanna Zatara ~IndoMTL.com~ Magician, sorcerer, and more importantly, telekinetic, master of memory hacking."
Batman immediately turned his head to look at Zatana. Zatana rolled her eyes and understood Constantine's thinking. It’s not good for those black magicians to take advantage of it.”
"I do have a way to directly invade people's memory. At the same time, like some mysterious beings, I can also find the weakness in the memory and create an opportunity for the other party to compromise... Yes, that's right, that's it! "
Zatana was happy again, she walked to the helicopter, looked back at Constantine and said:
"Well, your old-fashioned principles still have some effect, let's go, let's find a safe place, directly enter the memory of that man named Schiller to hypnotize him, and let him put down the umbrella. .”
Constantine showed a smirk, and said: "Miss, you are a genius, you have a perfect plan, then you..."
As he spoke, he approached the hatch of the helicopter, but the moment his hand touched the hatch, there was a "kacha" sound, and the hatch was locked. Batman looked straight ahead and said expressionlessly. :
"It's not you, it's us."
Konstantin froze in place.
Soon, the wind picked up in Gotham, and at the end of the clouds, light was squeezed out from the gaps in the dark clouds, and when it was reflected on the ground, it carried a sense of dread that would disappear at any time.
Thin rain lines hit the helicopter's propeller, and the water vapor rises like fog and clouds.
The helicopter gradually shrank into a black spot and flew towards the skyline, where there was a tall tower soaring into the clouds, looming in the depths of the fog and rain.
