When Constantine recommended Gotham to Warlock, he said that the darkness and decay of Gotham are very suitable for the survival of demons.
There is darkness in the human nature here, and they are very easy to be seduced. These people also have the desire to be redeemed, and they will be extremely convinced after being bewitched.What's more, there aren't enough of the demon's natural enemies here to allow the demon to run amok.
When Warlock heard that someone summoned the plague, he only felt troubled. When he heard the plague said that someone intended to destroy the gate of hell, his face changed instantly.
The gate of hell is a very special existence. It seems that up to four people can pass through it at the same time. In fact, it is impossible to measure its size.
It is this door that separates the world from hell. The gate of hell has a very special attribute, that is, the more powerful it is, the more difficult it is for a person to pass through the gate of hell.
Only the demons who have obtained the pass order signed by the high-level hell can walk freely between hell and the world. The problem is that the demons who have obtained the pass order have to report a work log at each stage, which has dissuaded many troublesome demons.
The attribute of strong when encountering the strong determines that demons with super abilities cannot easily go to the human world, while demons with low abilities are more willing to practice in hell. Occasionally, a few demons are greedy for pleasure in the world, and the high-profile ones will soon be killed by the exorcist and the light. People in the camp are wiped out, and those who are low-key can survive for a long time.
In addition to breaking through from within, there is another tricky way that humans summon hell demons to come to the world. No matter what era there are people immersed in darkness, this time the black wizards are obviously unwilling to summon one or two hell creatures. Let's do it.
"Enough words, go do what you should do. Since you said Gotham is your city, then guard her." Plague with a faint smile on his lips, left the last sentence Row the wheelchair into the dark sea.
Warlock stood there for a long time, finally collected his mood, turned around and met the dark Batman.
"My God, you startled me."
"Who is that woman, and what does she mean?" Batman's voice of gravel rubbing against the ground came out from under the mask, with a stern voice, "What does this infectious disease have to do with you?"
Warlock originally planned to communicate with Batman to resolve the crisis together.But looking at the vigilance in Batman's eyes, he felt like his heart was going to be broken. The tacit understanding of the previous night patrol and the trust that could be delivered to the back were all broken at this moment. Batman never really let down his vigilance towards Warlock.
Bruce never told Warlock that he was Batman from beginning to end, and separated Bruce Wayne from Batman, and Warlock never concealed his other identity in front of Bruce, with Batman's desire to control How could it be possible not to know that Warlock is the Gray Angel.
Even, it is very likely that he already knew Warlock's secret identity before the relationship.
This is Batman, beware of all, this is Batman, beware of all...
Warlock comforted himself in his heart, suppressed the sourness in his heart, and was as calm as ever, "That is pollution, the aggregate of all pollution concepts in the world, and she used to have a name—plague."
"According to her, she was summoned by someone, and the person who summoned her is in Gotham. The new disease she brought has no specific medicine available, and only the disease doctor who appeared with her can treat it, Or spend a lot of time developing specific drugs."
"The only way to end all this quickly is to find the person who summoned her and solve it all from the source."
Batman recorded the information Warlock said, he was half-doubtful in his heart, and continued to ask: "What door, sealing barrier, demon...what is she talking about?"
"This is not something you should know, and it's not something you can solve. As for demons, don't you always say that Gotham doesn't need non-humans to intervene? Why don't you guess what race I am?"
After leaving this sentence, Warlock spread his wings and flew away from the scene. He needed to find a place to sort out his emotions, and more importantly, integrate intelligence to deal with the crisis on the magic side.
……
Constantine's life has been going well, so smoothly that he forgot that Lucifer gave up one-third of his soul ownership to a demon kid.
When Warlock called him, he glanced at the caller ID, confirmed that it was not the familiar patron Constantine, and hung up the phone directly. He was flirting with two hot beauties in the bar, and he would have a wonderful soon night.
After three consecutive calls were hung up, Warlock's face became extremely ugly, and his hand holding the phone tightened slightly. The power was transmitted to Constantine's phone along the signal, and the two phones were automatically connected.
"Constantine."
An angry voice came out of the phone, and the phone that automatically answered the phone startled the beauties around Constantine, and they flirted into Constantine's arms for comfort, which looked more like flirting.
Constantine saw that the phone automatically connected to the positive color for a few minutes, and spent more than ten seconds thinking about whose voice it was. Finally, he gave up trying to think about it, and picked up the phone after making a gesture with the two beauties.
"This is Constantine, the exorcist. He specializes in exorcism, deciphering and treasure hunting. He accepts cash transfers and checks. Is there anything I need to do?"
"I need you to get out of Gotham now, right now, right now."
The call was hung up with a click, and it took Constantine a while to match the identity of the person on the other side of the phone with the place name of Gotham.Only that little devil who was spoiled by Lucifer and Cain and held his own account would be so bossy to let him go to Gotham.
Constantine spread his hands regretfully at the two beauties, signaling that the evening agreement had come to an end.The two beauties looked at each other, and at the same time they picked up their wine glasses and poured them on Constantine.They all heard a male voice on the other side of the call, and the guy in front of them was probably a scumbag who came out to date behind his back.
"You are the master of one-third of my soul, so you only need to pay two-thirds of my commission, but you have to reimburse me for the full amount of the cross-border air ticket."
Constantine tried to light a cigarette with a cigarette in his mouth, and the lighter's flame would be snuffed out by Warlock the moment it appeared.
There are several stacks of magical books stacked in front of Warlock. From his irritable expression, it can be seen that he didn't find what he wanted.
"As long as you can make a difference, money is not a problem. You should have noticed the current chaos in Gotham. The plague of the four horsemen of the apocalypse came to Gotham. She said that someone is destroying the gate of hell and trying to release the devil from hell. .”
Constantine restrained his sloppy and flamboyant expression, "It's impossible, there are only six entrances to hell in the world, and none of them are in Gotham."
"There are six official fixed projections of the Gates of Hell." Warlock opened another book, "Do you think that those demons who escaped from hell came out only after obtaining the two-world travel license? I The reason why I asked you to come here is to let you find the gate of hell in Gotham."
Constantine bit his cigarette and gritted his teeth, and said, "You are a demon, find an exorcist to find the gate of hell, are you kidding me?"
Warlock raised his head from the pile of books, looked at Constantine with inexplicable eyes, tossed a coin, and the side of the black wing landed in his palm.The black arc of light tore apart the space around Warlock. Behind the arc was the scorched earth and black plants that are unique to hell, and the crimson moon can be seen faintly.
"See, as long as I want, I can open the gate of hell at any time. The downside is that I can't catch the weak signal of the gate of hell, so I need you."
He also contacted Lucifer, Cain, and Crowley.It is said that the monsters in the abyss began to stir, Lucifer went to suppress them, Cain blocked his memory and went to the world to find a way to remove the curse, Crowley somehow sneaked into heaven, and he couldn't come back for a while, he had no choice but to Locke contacted Constantine.
Constantine sighed and summoned dozens of magic books and piled them on the desk, looking through them. Although he was not happy to be driven by Warlock, he didn't want to let demons come to the world.
While Warlock and Constantine scramble to find a solution in the grimoires, Batman's investigation stalls.
Batman stared at the bat computer and fell into a long silence. He integrated all the information given by the gray angel, and could not deduce any more information at all.When he wanted to ask Gray Angel for more information, he found that he had lost all traces of Gray Angel, all the trackers on Gray Angel were destroyed, and the two-way communicator was also unilaterally turned off.
He called up the monitoring of Warlock Dowling, and the monitoring was still functioning normally, but Warlock was not in the apartment.The computer was on, and the meeting was still going on. Lying in front of the computer was a black cat no bigger than a pen holder. It was Warlock's artificial intelligence butler.
Apparently, Warlock had transferred the mayor's duties to the smart butler, and Batman had hacked into the computers of the other attendees, whose screens showed Warlock sitting at their desks listening to their discussions.
At the moment when Batman successfully invaded, the smart butler cat suddenly turned its head and stared at the direction of the monitor, its pupils lit up with red light, as if it had identified the intruder, the red light quickly turned back to green, and the smart butler cat turned around again Go back and continue the meeting.
"Cough, cough, Master Bruce." Alfred came to the Batcave with strength, his face was still red with a high fever, "I thought you would bring back an assistant, but now it seems that you still need my help .”
Bruce stood up and supported Alfred, "Alfred, you need to rest, I can take care of it myself. The most important thing for you is to get better soon."
"If you can really solve the problem on your own, you won't be the only one in the Batcave." Alfred said wearily, "You've lost another assistant in a critical period."
"I..." Bruce felt that there was still something wrong with the design of the bat suit, and he was a little out of breath now, "I saw him talking to a weird woman, talking about things that only they understood. I was afraid, Alfred, I'm afraid it's because of him, I'm afraid it's my soft-heartedness that's causing Gotham's danger."
"So, ahem, ahem, so you broke the heart of a gentleman who loves you for a very likely incorrect assumption." Alfred looked at Batman with disappointed and heartbroken eyes.
Batman was silent, he didn't dare to look Alfred in the eyes, and he didn't want to recall Warlock's sad eyes at the moment he questioned him.
"I have to do this, Alfred, I have to..."
"Nobody forced you to do that, Master Bruce."
The sound of the Batcomputer broke the embarrassment in the Batcave. The movement of Batman jumping in front of the Batcomputer was almost gone. People related to words such as "sacrifice" and "summoning" successfully identified four suspicious locations and 27 suspects.
Batman hesitated for a while and sent a copy of the information to Gray Angel. It is obvious that he is not the one who can play a decisive role in this crisis.
When Warlock received the information sent by Batman, he had already investigated the Diamond District with Constantine, and was preparing to investigate the Burnley District, West District and East District.
"Diamond and Burnley are the areas where the number of people infected with the disease is low, the west is moderate, and the east is the most. Disease and war are the ways that most arouse negative emotions in the group, and I tend to have the source in the east."
Constantine shook his head and had a different opinion, "You have ignored an important existence, you. The dark power you can provide is far better than the essence of the negative emotions of these groups. If it were me, I would definitely choose a place with purer power. "
Warlock thought of his difficulties in collecting positive human emotions and transforming them into the power of light, so he shut up.
After a long time, he opened his mouth and said, "You go to the Burnley District to investigate, and I will go to the East District, and separate quickly."
Constantine sneered, and did not object to the arrangement, but just looked at Warlock before parting, as if he could see through his truest thoughts.
Standing on the top of the high-rise buildings in the East District, Warlock watched the plague doctors coming and going below, and squeezed his scepter tightly.Constantine was right, the man who summoned the plague was probably in Burnley, and not far from his apartment, but he stayed in the East End.
Because in the information passed by Batman, three of the four suspected locations are in the Eastern District, and most of the suspects are also in the Eastern District.With Batman's character, he will definitely go to the location marked by the intelligence to check the situation in person. Even if he wraps himself in every detail, Warlock will worry about his safety.
A huge black shadow of a bat streaked across the sky, and Warlock closed his mask and followed.
The gray angel is located ten meters behind Batman, no more than one meter, no less than one meter. The entire mask covers his face, making it impossible to judge his emotions.
Most of the suspects in Batman's intelligence are hiding in four suspected locations, and Warlock followed one to know what these places are for.
There are all kinds of religious beliefs in Gotham, in addition to righteous and evil, the first church Batman searched was the church of the Black Mass.
When Batman kicked open the dusty door, the cultists were fanatically preaching the evil gods to the Gotham people sitting next to them. Warlock glanced at the so-called "holy water" "true god", but It is one of the inconspicuous ones among the middle-level demons in hell.
If this sect really gathers enough people to believe in that demon, it is estimated that in one or two hundred years, the demon will be able to accumulate enough power to break open the gate of hell.
Warlock snapped his fingers behind the cloak with the back of his hand, the wax oil dripped into the water, and the "holy water" began to reverse, and the demon that already had some charm began to struggle, screaming silently, and finally swayed with the fluctuations of the water, and scattered violently, black of blood fused with water.
The cultist watched in horror as the worshiped god was completely destroyed, completely lost the courage to resist, and was knocked down by Batman's punch.
Batman's cloak fluttered behind him. He turned over the entire church but failed to find the target person. He turned around and was about to go to the next target location.
Warlock was always the most restless of the two, grabbing Batman's cape as he passed by.
"Is there nothing you want to tell me?"
Silence, Warlock waited for a long time and there was only silence.He looked into Batman's eyes, trying to see something from inside, but Batman had shielded his eyes, and Warlock couldn't see Batman's eyes clearly through the high-tech shield.
He let go of Batman's hand, and with an emotionless smile under his mask, he said, "That man is not in the East End. It's useless for you to search for him like this. Let's go, go to Burnley."
The Burnley District does not occupy a large area in the division of Gotham's various districts, but it occupies the largest area per capita. The people who live here are either rich or expensive, which reduces Constantine's workload a lot.
Constantine was looking down from the library platform when Warlock and Batman found him.
Constantine could tell at a glance that the little devil, Warlock, had an unusual relationship with Batman. He could assure from his years of experience in hanging out with all kinds of men and women that they definitely had an affair, and they were on the verge of an extremely dangerous relationship. .
Of course, none of this has anything to do with him. After taking a deep breath, Constantine motioned the two men to look downstairs, "Take a look, and then tell me what you saw?"
Batman: "...nothing."
Warlock frowned slightly, "Disease doctor, there are too many plague doctors here."
There are always plague doctors coming in and out of the house opposite the library, unless there are more than a hundred patients in that house, it is definitely not normal.
Constantine gave Warlock a discerning look, and continued: "If there is no accident, that is the source you are looking for."
"Then why are you standing here?" Warlock asked casually, then closed his eyes to feel the power fluctuations nearby.It has been basically confirmed that the source is the house, but the place where Warlock can feel the strongest fluctuation of power is under the library.
"Commence Clive, the current curator of Gotham Library, the owner of that house."
These are the first words Batman utters after he and Warlock act together.
Warlock took one look at Batman and strode downstairs, Constantine and Batman following.Constantine looked between the two thoughtfully, quickened his pace and came together with Warlock, and deliberately whispered about magic.
Batman's equipment allows him to hear voices hundreds of meters away, and it's easy to listen to Constantine and Warlock talking about anything, and Constantine just enjoys it.
Warlock also deliberately had a good chat with Constantine, and gradually, he found that chatting with Constantine was really fun.When Constantine deliberately courted someone's favor, his eloquence and erudition served him well.
Batman followed the two silently, recording the surrounding environment and every word Warlock and the two said.He thinks Constantine is very dazzling, but he can't throw Constantine out. Now the highest priority here is Warlock, and the lowest is him.
Going down to the first floor, Warlock searched around but couldn't find the location to the basement.He could feel the power fluctuations of the magic circle, but he didn't want to damage the floor of the library, which was a public facility in Gotham, and the city government would need money for the repairs.
Batman took a step forward and took Warlock's hand, leading him to the fire escape. The black armor and white gloves were particularly obvious.Warlock was still angry, and wanted to shake off Batman's hand, but found that Batman was using so much force that he couldn't shake it off easily unless he was serious.
Batman pulled Warlock like this, and Warlock quickly walked a few steps to keep up with Batman for convenience. The situation of the three of them became Batman and Warlock side by side again, and Constantine was behind alone.
The first basement of the library is a newspaper showroom, and the second basement is an old book restoration center, where Commons Clive's office and work place are located.
The restoration center is scattered with books and pages. These precious books that should have been placed in the glass display cabinets were randomly discarded on the table, on the restoration table and on the ground. Many book pages were completely weathered, and the four whiteboards standing next to the restoration table It is densely packed with symbols and words that ordinary people cannot understand.
Batman quickly took pictures of all four whiteboards, and when he turned around, he saw Warlock and Constantine with the same seriousness.
Warlock can understand the words on the whiteboard, and it is because he can understand that he finds it troublesome. Commons Clive seems to want to summon the demon, but he made a mistake in a few symbols and a variable, which directly led to the summoning fail.
But his summoning circle took shape, and the incomplete magic circle used the life of Commons Clive as energy to send a signal to all the lives in hell. Anyone who is interested can come to Gotham through this summoning circle, until Commons S. Clive died.
I don't know if it was luck or misfortune, but the first one to be summoned was Plague, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. She herself paid a lot of energy to successfully teleport it.The energy remaining in the follow-up is not enough to teleport the great demon, but it is enough to teleport several victims in hell and projections of many demons.
"Let's go, deal with Commons Clive first, suppress the spread of the disease, and then deal with the demons and the gates of hell."

Thanks to the little angel who threw mines: Loret1;
Thanks to the little angels who irrigate the nutrient solution: 253 bottles of Qingtuan; 46 bottles of Daorendao;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
There is darkness in the human nature here, and they are very easy to be seduced. These people also have the desire to be redeemed, and they will be extremely convinced after being bewitched.What's more, there aren't enough of the demon's natural enemies here to allow the demon to run amok.
When Warlock heard that someone summoned the plague, he only felt troubled. When he heard the plague said that someone intended to destroy the gate of hell, his face changed instantly.
The gate of hell is a very special existence. It seems that up to four people can pass through it at the same time. In fact, it is impossible to measure its size.
It is this door that separates the world from hell. The gate of hell has a very special attribute, that is, the more powerful it is, the more difficult it is for a person to pass through the gate of hell.

"Cough, cough, Master Bruce." Alfred came to the Batcave with strength, his face was still red with a high fever, "I thought you would bring back an assistant, but now it seems that you still need my help .”
Bruce stood up and supported Alfred, "Alfred, you need to rest, I can take care of it myself. The most important thing for you is to get better soon."
"If you can really solve the problem on your own, you won't be the only one in the Batcave." Alfred said wearily, "You've lost another assistant in a critical period."

When Warlock received the information sent by Batman, he had already investigated the Diamond District with Constantine, and was preparing to investigate the Burnley District, West District and East District.
"Diamond and Burnley are the areas where the number of people infected with the disease is low, the west is moderate, and the east is the most. Disease and war are the ways that most arouse negative emotions in the group, and I tend to have the source in the east."

Constantine sneered, and did not object to the arrangement, but just looked at Warlock before parting, as if he could see through his truest thoughts.
Standing on the top of the high-rise buildings in the East District, Warlock watched the plague doctors coming and going below, and squeezed his scepter tightly.Constantine was right, the man who summoned the plague was probably in Burnley, and not far from his apartment, but he stayed in the East End.

The gray angel is located ten meters behind Batman, no more than one meter, no less than one meter. The entire mask covers his face, making it impossible to judge his emotions.
Most of the suspects in Batman's intelligence are hiding in four suspected locations, and Warlock followed one to know what these places are for.

Warlock snapped his fingers behind the cloak with the back of his hand, the wax oil dripped into the water, and the "holy water" began to reverse, and the demon that already had some charm began to struggle, screaming silently, and finally swayed with the fluctuations of the water, and scattered violently, black of blood fused with water.
The cultist watched in horror as the worshiped god was completely destroyed, completely lost the courage to resist, and was knocked down by Batman's punch.
Batman's cloak fluttered behind him. He turned over the entire church but failed to find the target person. He turned around and was about to go to the next target location.
Warlock was always the most restless of the two, grabbing Batman's cape as he passed by.
"Is there nothing you want to tell me?"
Silence, Warlock waited for a long time and there was only silence.He looked into Batman's eyes, trying to see something from inside, but Batman had shielded his eyes, and Warlock couldn't see Batman's eyes clearly through the high-tech shield.
He let go of Batman's hand, and with an emotionless smile under his mask, he said, "That man is not in the East End. It's useless for you to search for him like this. Let's go, go to Burnley."
The Burnley District does not occupy a large area in the division of Gotham's various districts, but it occupies the largest area per capita. The people who live here are either rich or expensive, which reduces Constantine's workload a lot.
Constantine was looking down from the library platform when Warlock and Batman found him.
Constantine could tell at a glance that the little devil, Warlock, had an unusual relationship with Batman. He could assure from his years of experience in hanging out with all kinds of men and women that they definitely had an affair, and they were on the verge of an extremely dangerous relationship. .
Of course, none of this has anything to do with him. After taking a deep breath, Constantine motioned the two men to look downstairs, "Take a look, and then tell me what you saw?"
Batman: "...nothing."
Warlock frowned slightly, "Disease doctor, there are too many plague doctors here."
There are always plague doctors coming in and out of the house opposite the library, unless there are more than a hundred patients in that house, it is definitely not normal.
Constantine gave Warlock a discerning look, and continued: "If there is no accident, that is the source you are looking for."
"Then why are you standing here?" Warlock asked casually, then closed his eyes to feel the power fluctuations nearby.It has been basically confirmed that the source is the house, but the place where Warlock can feel the strongest fluctuation of power is under the library.
"Commence Clive, the current curator of Gotham Library, the owner of that house."
These are the first words Batman utters after he and Warlock act together.
Warlock took one look at Batman and strode downstairs, Constantine and Batman following.Constantine looked between the two thoughtfully, quickened his pace and came together with Warlock, and deliberately whispered about magic.
Batman's equipment allows him to hear voices hundreds of meters away, and it's easy to listen to Constantine and Warlock talking about anything, and Constantine just enjoys it.
Warlock also deliberately had a good chat with Constantine, and gradually, he found that chatting with Constantine was really fun.When Constantine deliberately courted someone's favor, his eloquence and erudition served him well.
Batman followed the two silently, recording the surrounding environment and every word Warlock and the two said.He thinks Constantine is very dazzling, but he can't throw Constantine out. Now the highest priority here is Warlock, and the lowest is him.
Going down to the first floor, Warlock searched around but couldn't find the location to the basement.He could feel the power fluctuations of the magic circle, but he didn't want to damage the floor of the library, which was a public facility in Gotham, and the city government would need money for the repairs.
Batman took a step forward and took Warlock's hand, leading him to the fire escape. The black armor and white gloves were particularly obvious.Warlock was still angry, and wanted to shake off Batman's hand, but found that Batman was using so much force that he couldn't shake it off easily unless he was serious.
Batman pulled Warlock like this, and Warlock quickly walked a few steps to keep up with Batman for convenience. The situation of the three of them became Batman and Warlock side by side again, and Constantine was behind alone.
The first basement of the library is a newspaper showroom, and the second basement is an old book restoration center, where Commons Clive's office and work place are located.
The restoration center is scattered with books and pages. These precious books that should have been placed in the glass display cabinets were randomly discarded on the table, on the restoration table and on the ground. Many book pages were completely weathered, and the four whiteboards standing next to the restoration table It is densely packed with symbols and words that ordinary people cannot understand.
Batman quickly took pictures of all four whiteboards, and when he turned around, he saw Warlock and Constantine with the same seriousness.
Warlock can understand the words on the whiteboard, and it is because he can understand that he finds it troublesome. Commons Clive seems to want to summon the demon, but he made a mistake in a few symbols and a variable, which directly led to the summoning fail.
But his summoning circle took shape, and the incomplete magic circle used the life of Commons Clive as energy to send a signal to all the lives in hell. Anyone who is interested can come to Gotham through this summoning circle, until Commons S. Clive died.
I don't know if it was luck or misfortune, but the first one to be summoned was Plague, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. She herself paid a lot of energy to successfully teleport it.The energy remaining in the follow-up is not enough to teleport the great demon, but it is enough to teleport several victims in hell and projections of many demons.
"Let's go, deal with Commons Clive first, suppress the spread of the disease, and then deal with the demons and the gates of hell."
