Chapter 1181 (2/2)
At midnight, Dad loosened his hand holding Constantine's back neck and let him stand up calmly. Slag Kang sorted out his windbreaker and shirt a little. He was disgusted and highlighted a mouthful of rotten saliva. He snapped his fingers and plunged his body into darkness. There were only slag Kang and midnight in a dark space.
”I've received the order from the adult!” slag Kang said:
”Don't play tricks... John, I'm not a very patient person,” said dad at midnight.
Some twisted blue flames suddenly appeared around Constantine, and a fuzzy figure appeared in the middle of the flame. He looked at Constantine and said, ”I need you to do something for me, John.” at midnight, dad was horrified and said, ”prophet!”
”The first prophet!” Constantine turned sideways to the projection preserved by magic. His silhouette held a cigarette in his mouth. Cigarette was also the medium of casting magic. In fact, the history of tobacco used in mystics was almost synchronized with the history of tobacco used by human beings. Indian wizards liked to smoke tobacco to cast magic and use smoke as the medium of casting magic.
A writing wizard, read as a white Wizard of crazy soldiers, also loves tobacco.
The smoke around the projection is shrouded. It is obvious that Zhekang uses tobacco as a medium to show it.
The distorted projection of the first prophet said, ”an artifact will appear in the future metropolis...” a fuzzy shadow with green light appeared in the smoke. Constantine slowly said, ”it's like kryptonite, isn't it?”
”It's very dangerous. It's a gateway to another world. It can create a fourth prophet. It's a key sent in... Help me find it, Constantine. It's a powerful mage's way home, but we can't let him come back because he will destroy the world. There are three outsiders who come to our world.”
Reed, the little spider, and strange's fuzzy shadow appear in the projection.
”Protect him.” the first prophet looked at Reed's projection.
Then he said to the projection of the little spider, ”and the artifact is on him! He may destroy the world, but the world should have been destroyed. You don't have to care. He is the one we chose to destroy the world.”
”And he!” said the first prophet, pointing to strange, ”is a mage exiled out of time. You must let him back at the right time. If the time is wrong, the process of destruction of the world will be out of control.”
Constantine appeared for the first time in the projection. He asked the first to know: ”isn't it the responsibility of the committee to protect the world? Why do you come to me?”
”Because our opinions are divided, the three prophets have split! We all see that the world is at a key node and stands at the crossroads leading to different futures, but our opinions are greatly divided. Everyone wants to save the world, but the world can't be saved!”
”We have to make a choice, a different choice!”
”So we go our own way. The committee will take action only when the three prophets have the same opinion. This is the iron rule I set. The committee is trying to save me now, and I must ensure that there is still a chance to come back, so we can only let the second and third prophets act, and you know, no one can compare with the second prophet when making choices for the world.”
Constantine said, ”that's really a... Enviable ability.”
”We don't agree, so I need you to get that artifact so that I can stop him from making choices for the world at a critical time.”
”But he can keep me from touching that artifact,” Constantine said.
”No... he will!” the first prophet smiled. ”As long as it can bring you bad luck... He will take the initiative to deliver things to the door. This is the rule of the game between us.”
All illusions disappeared... Dad was silent at midnight.
He stood up and turned his head into the darkness. The two left the dark world and returned to reality.
