From the black, foul-smelling pond, gradually emerged a skinny corpse.
Constantine watched this scene silently, and continued to wade through the knee-high sewage.
This maze has become completely different now. The surrounding area is getting more and more open, and even streets and buildings are starting to appear! It's unbelievable!
In front of Constantine and Klaus, under the cover of the four walls of the surrounding maze, there is a familiar street in front of them. The building that should have been melted by hell has now reappeared.
In front, is a Starbucks coffee shop! And Klaus recognized at a glance that this coffee shop was the one that the car driven by the black man crashed into! That said, here are the streets of Providence! The whole city has turned into a maze!
"Oh, God… "
Constantine came to the door of the coffee shop, stood still slowly, and then asked: "This is... where Rie Fukasawa is now?"
"Yes, I'm sure."
Constantine stretched out his hand and pushed the coffee shop away. He is very vigilant now, and he doesn't know what will happen in this maze.
The coffee shop was lonely, and in front of the tables and chairs were corpses sunk in the sewage. Behind the service desk, you can clearly see the menu written on the wall. Even, on one of the tables, there was a half-eaten moldy sandwich and a cup of coffee that was almost finished. In front of the table was an almost completely decomposed corpse with a pair of glasses on the bridge of its nose.
I can't find it anywhere, Fukasawa Rikai. But what Klaus said was the word of conviction. Then, he must be very sure that Fukasawa Rie Yi is here, otherwise, he would definitely not say that.
At this moment, the corpse wearing glasses suddenly fell to the ground strangely, and most of its body was swallowed by sewage!
"Klaus, Miss Fukasawa... still alive, right?"
"Yes, Father. She is still alive."
"I see."
(Do I really need to come here to save...Abe Hitomi? After all, she...)
Then, as the stinking sewage slowly flowed, the corpse gradually drifted towards Constantine and Klaus. Relying on the dim light in the room, they could clearly see that many maggots crawled out of the rotting skin on the face of the corpse, and even the lenses of the glasses were also covered with maggots.
Constantine looked at the corpse vigilantly. After all, the corpse might ask questions at any time, or more troublesome questions might arise. As for Klaus, I don't know why, something has been wrong since just now.
"Father, I want to tell you something."
At this time, Klaus behind Constantine spoke suddenly.
"What's up?"
While Constantine answered, he didn't look back, his eyes were fixed on the corpse.
"Here lies the dead who is not Providence. It is... Pronov Teklo. He is here!"
This sentence immediately surprised Constantine!
"You mean... the strongest first-class exorcist of the Tiklo Magic Society who died in China in 1936?"
"Yes. Father, you should be very clear about the meaning of the name Pronov Tiklo."
Pronov is from the Soviet Union. Before the September 18th Incident in 1931, he had been an exorcist stationed at the border between the Soviet Union and Northeast China by the Soviet Branch of the Tiklo Society of Magic. And because the Japanese army blatantly invaded the Northeast, he felt the Japanese army's ambition to go north to the Soviet Union, and he secretly assisted the Northeast Anti-Japanese War. This behavior was denounced by the Tiklo Magic Society in the Soviet Union, thinking that it would affect the relationship between Japan and the Soviet Union, and recalled him to the Soviet Union. And considering political factors, this matter has been concealed and has never been seen in official history.
"As far as I know, Pronov Tiklow was not allowed to participate in the 1932 mission to North America to hunt down the Interstellar Wisdom Sect because he assisted the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance privately. Instead, he escaped because of this, but in 1936 At the end of the year, he died in China."
Konstantin naturally knew all this well, after all, he was introduced in detail in the movie script. From Ye Xiang's point of view, although he secretly assisted the anti-Japanese war in consideration of the interests of the Soviet Union, after all, he had once contributed to the Chinese nation's anti-Japanese war, so he still has a good impression of him and has a deep impression on him.
"You said he... is here now?"
But if you like him well, even if he was an anti-Japanese hero before, he may have become a devil now. Therefore, it must not be ignored.
"Whether it was the activities in the United States from 1932 to 1933 or the actions in China in 1936, it has always been a sealed history."
"Is it the same as... Aslan Ticklow's experience?"
At this time, Constantine's eyes finally left the floating body on the water for a while.
He recalled the setting of the script. Originally, in 1937, the year following the death of Pronov, a first-class exorcist, the Tiklo Magic Society sent people to Shanghai to investigate the cause of his death again, but unexpectedly, the July 7th Incident broke out in 1937, and Japan Launched a full-scale invasion of China, and soon openly tore up the "Songhu Armistice Agreement", regardless of the interests of the British and American countries in China, which triggered the August 13th Songhu Battle. The European headquarters immediately arranged for all personnel to evacuate from Shanghai quickly. Later, because Hitler triggered World War II in 1939, the European Exorcist Association and the Ticcolo Society of Magic joined the Allied battlefield, and they no longer cared about the Shanghai problem. This matter has thus become an unsolved case of a century, and so far, no one has been able to answer it.
Then, Klaus uttered a creepy answer.
"The one who killed Pronov Tiklo was summoned by the witches... the bloated daughter!"
"One of Nyarlathotep's... avatars?"
There are countless incarnations of the stealthy chaos, the most famous ones are the black pharaoh of Egypt, and the swollen daughter of Shanghai!
"The incarnation of Nyarlathotep, maybe... is by our side!"
Then, Klaus said a line that was earth-shattering! This sentence, no one who has played the role of Klaus in the past has ever said it!
At this moment, Constantine suddenly saw a black head gushing out of the sewage behind Klaus, and then, a corpse that was stained with foul-smelling sewage and was almost dyed black. Stand up slowly!
And Constantine was about to draw his sword, when suddenly his whole body was pulled into the sewage on the ground! During this process, he had no ability to resist!
Klaus's consciousness was once again pulled into the gap between time and space.
He just stood there blankly, and behind him, the corpse covered in rotten sewage kept moving towards him, getting closer, closer...
