Chapter 525: Researching Weeping Angel
Chapter 525: Researching Weeping Angel
Nexia, it was really his daughter.
For a moment, Lod's mind was completely blank, thousands of thoughts intertwined, like waves that could not stop for a long time.
Countless questions emerged, like tangled ball of hair, making people feel like they could not be cut out, irritability, depression, confusion, and other negative emotions were stuck in his chest like a lump of mud, unable to disperse.
Until the girl's white hands pressed on both sides of his cheek, the cold touch from his skin, only then did Lod wake up from his deep thoughts.
"You... How did you get here?"
Lod pinched his throbbing eyebrows and asked with a headache, "Or did I order you to come here from the future?"
"I'm sorry, father."
Nexia shook her head. She bit her lips and said, "I can't reveal anything about the future. Otherwise, it might affect the direction of time. So, please forgive me for not telling you."
"I know."
Lod was silent for a moment. There was a strange light in his eyes. He recognized the gaze he used to look at Nexia and said slowly, "I won't make things difficult for you, so I only want to ask you a question. I hope you can answer me."
Nexia looked at the man's eyes. She seemed to have guessed his question. She took a deep breath and clenched her white hands into fists. She could even see the protruding bones. Her voice trembled as she said, "The future or the future can be changed. The past is uncertain. This is what you told me. Now I will tell you."
"The future can not be changed? The past has been fixed?"
The future could be changed, and the past was uncertain!
"Hahahaha. I understand, I understand!"
Lod had already gotten the answer he wanted to know the most. He immediately laughed out loud.
In that laughter, it was filled with a hearty and heroic spirit. It seemed to have vented the anger that had been accumulated in his chest. Just the sound spread, it shook the nearby space.
"My good daughter ---"
Lod raised his hand and rubbed Nexia's golden hair. He smiled and said, "Although I haven't seen you before, I have already started to like you. I probably know why I trust you so much in the future."
Nexia was as gentle as a kitten. She rubbed against Lod's palm and her green eyes curved into a crescent. She said softly, "Father, it's time for us to go out. There are still important matters waiting for you to settle."
"You're right. There are still important matters to attend to."
Lod suddenly understood. He shook his head and smiled. He waved his hand to remove Kido barrier.
"Tsk, you finally came out." Constantine crossed his arms in front of his chest and sat on a chair in the hall. He held a lit cigarette in one hand and crossed his legs. "It seems that the father and daughter have met. Can we solve the problem we are facing now?"
The rest of them trembled and hid in the corner. They seemed to know that the people in front of them were their saviors, so they did not dare to interrupt. However, this was also good. It saved them the effort to take care of ordinary people like them.
"It's very strange."
Lod frowned slightly and looked around in confusion. "It has been more than ten minutes since just now. Why hasn't the Weeping Angel appeared yet?"
"Of course it's because of this."
Constantine grinned and raised his heel to knock hard on the floor. He took a puff of smoke and said, "Although I rarely use it, it doesn't mean that I don't know how to do it. I still have some self-defense methods."
Lod lowered his head. Only then did he notice the bright red lines on the floor.
The lines were bright red, like the blood of some kind of creature, giving people a strange and evil aura. The lines moved along the cracks of the floor, densely covering the entire floor of the hall. From the appearance, it looked like a pregnant woman who was carrying a baby.
However, the appearance of this pregnant woman was really a bit strange!
The upper half of his body could be vaguely seen as a human, but the lower half of his body was a huge snake tail. There were also wolves and goats circling around him. A huge crescent moon filled the entire background, and there were countless complicated Latinincantations on the edges.
[Lilith's Womb], a magic that originated from the Book of Dead Spirit, a maze magic that was specially used to trap demons. It's just that the people who are trapped now have become ourselves. Constantine brushed off the half-burnt smoke and slowly said, "But this is just to buy time. The group of statues outside are attacking wildly. In about one day, the magic will completely lose its effectiveness."
When Lod saw these blood runes, he was already quite blurry.
"Fortunately, you came quite quickly. If you were one more day late, hehe, you would be able to collect our corpses." Constantine smiled bitterly.
"Interesting."
Lod looked at him with interest and said, "I am more and more curious about how many tricks you have hidden, John Constantine."
"No, I have been hollowed out."
Constantine spread his hands and said with a sad face, "Lilith's Womb is my last trump card. It was originally prepared for that bastard Mamen. I didn't expect that the remaining trump cards would still be used here in the end."
"Hehe, do you think I believe it?"
Lod smiled and patted his shoulder. He said meaningfully, "Your means are not limited to just this. I hope I can see it later."
"Wait, don't tell me you want me to go out with you?" Constantine's face twitched violently, and he said in disbelief, "I can swear to God that I have no hidden means. If you let me go out, it is deliberate murder!"
Lod smiled without saying a word, looking as if he was waiting for him to continue bragging.
If Constantine's nonsense could be believed, the clown on the next set could be transferred to the police. Looking at the three worlds of hell and hell, this guy could live until now and live quite comfortably. It was because this mouth of his was well known for his ability to deceive the gods and deceive the ghosts.
Therefore, the first rule of friendship with Constantine was to never believe his mouth.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to you."
To prevent Constantine from causing trouble, Lod still comforted him, "I asked you to go out just to help. I have a way to restrain the Weeping Angel. I will definitely not let anything happen to you."
"You are not lying to me?"
Constantine expressed his doubts.
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Lod was a little speechless. He said, "Do you think everyone is like you, having a bad reputation?"
Constantine thought about it. Lod had indeed never lied to him. Moreover, he had basically done everything he said. Only then did he feel a little relieved. He said, "Then you have to protect me well. If I die, you will lose a friend!"
"No, friends can't afford it."
Lod sneered. Being Constantine's friend, even if there were a few lives, it would not be enough for him to cheat.
"Let me ask, how do you plan to deal with those statues?" Constantine came over and asked.
"Capture all of them and bring them back to Soul Society. Hand them over to Technological Development Department." Lod licked his lips and a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes. He said, "It would be a waste to let go of such a good material like the Weeping Angel."
Constantine: "..."
Using such a terrifying creature as a research material, he didn't even know if it was because Lod was brave or if Soul Society was capable. Moreover, if there was even the slightest accident, the entire Soul Society would be wiped out.
Nexia smiled at the two of them, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
That sadness was so deep and serious that it could not be wiped away.
It was as if.
It was as if she wanted to deeply imprint Lod's figure in her heart.
