Whether James understood what Zach said or not, Fitz outside the bedroom had already started urging Zach to come out quickly.
Zach glanced at James with a smile, turned around and pushed open the door. Facing the crowd of loyal fans below, he opened his arms, chin slightly, looked down at his slightly narrowed light green eyes, and opened and closed the corners of his mouth slightly, "Victory. Fear, you must become fear.”
A round of fierce applause sounded downstairs.
James pushed aside Zach, who was posing, and went downstairs without saying a word. He no longer emphasized that his clothes were too tight, and silently started the comics that Fitz and the others had brought.
James may feel that Fitz, a group of people who should have nothing to do with him, is innocent, reminding him that there is such a simple and pure life in this chaotic world. But he never thought that one day he would be interested in what Fitz and the others were obsessed with.
Now that he knew he was wrong, he turned the pages of the book and really hoped that reality could be so simple.
He already understood what Zach meant.
If the demons start a war, Barton will face a choice: let Crowley be destroyed by the encircling demons, or side with Crowley and help her!
This choice is so easy! Can Barton not help Crowley? cannot!
James knows this best!
Coulson's report has been completely sorted out. Please don't forget the mission assigned by James' partner, Detective Coulson, to Chief Cologne. While James and Wes were on a real undercover mission, Coulson was infiltrating the Newton Police Department to get inside information on those who were involved.
The Newton Police Department has fallen into disrepair and has become a personal tool of some in Newton. James didn't understand the whole incident at first because he was having trouble with Zach at the time and no one told him the real situation.
After a non-conciliatory exchange, Zach filled in the follow-up to the 'club' incident, explaining the reasons why Saints Sissi and Gangelo would form a violent organization. All clues and fragments. This is the complete connection!
Newton has completely become a city of demons, whether it is the news about the disappearance of aliens sent back by Wander, or what Zach heard from Saint Sissy. If this is just about aliens, James doesn't have much to do with it. The key is the information compiled by Coulson!
Newton's demon has taken over the entire city's superstructure, so to speak. Newton has become the devil's private soul-producing factory.
This goes back to when James first expanded his world view and was taken by vampires and Alphas to meet fallen angels. Grande and the mayor tried their best to suppress Crowley's tentacles, blocking the possibility of the demon controlling Barton's superstructure.
Even if she doesn’t want to admit it, Crowley’s performance so far, compared with Newton Demon’s performance, is simply a philanthropist! Now that the upper echelons of Newton have been completely corrupted and controlled, the upper echelons of Barton still remain as pure as a white lotus!
Would James want Barton to become another Newton? Apparently not.
So, Zach is right. Once the war breaks out, James will need all the silver bullets he can find! He would be forced to protect Crowley and keep Barton with ten thousand unwillingness!
"Remember your lines!" Fitz told the three protagonists as they were preparing to leave.
Zach smiled and nodded. His and Benjamin's arms were already stuffed with things, including installed costumes and props as well as the character stories they needed to add, which were comic books.
James had been avoiding Fitz's gaze all night, and he didn't know if the freckle-faced guy noticed it.
"I should leave too." Zach and Benjamin were very natural and cooperated with Fitz's actions. Zach nodded to James as a farewell, and then turned to Fitz. He smiled as if he would attend next week's comic show no matter what, "Then we'll see you next week."
Fitz and the others dispersed excitedly. James no longer wanted to say anything more to this hypocritical vampire and closed the iron door.
In the backstreet of Liszt, under the night sky squeezed by man-made buildings, several cars dispersed in different directions, and the Grand truck naturally headed south. They are the farthest and have to go all the way back to the South District.
Naturally, the radio that accompanied the two 'brothers' to pass the time back to the city, but Zach's attention seemed not to be on the recently popular music, but on turning over the comics given by Fitz under the dim interior lights. .
"Unbelievable." Zach flipped through the pages. While shaking his head, "This guy actually lived longer than me." Zach was talking about his role. It was probably the 'immortality' that attracted him.
Benjamin smiled and shook his head, "So he is older than you? How many years older?"
"Two hundred..." Zach shut his mouth, so dangerous that he almost exposed his age. The vampire glanced at Benjamin and curled his lips, "I'm very curious about where the prototype of this character comes from."
Benjamin smiled and didn't ask any further questions. Although he found it funny that Zach had been hiding his true age, since Zach didn't want to tell him, he could just flirt with her. Just like Zach wouldn't ask Benjamin how he became a lone wolf, he would just let these historical questions remain deep in his memory without asking.
"Prototype?" Benjamin shook his head and smiled, "This is a comic, a fictional story."
Zach ignored it, "Alchemy, alchemy, he is a human mage, and then he found a way to live forever."
This is somewhat different from the life of the character in the comics, but whether it is fictional or inspired, this makes our Toledo Zach have to think of his former companions, the real aliens in the Secret Alliance. No, it should be the alien among all vampires - tremere.
Zach curled his lips, "Benjamin, have you encountered Rimmer before?"
"Once." Benjamin shrugged, "He was a very difficult guy to deal with." Alpha seemed to think of bad memories, "That time our group encountered them, and the hunt lasted for three days, but we didn't catch any of them. Man. Waste of time."
Alpha directly used 'Hunting' and didn't care about Zach's senses next to him. There was no other explanation other than the deep relationship between the two.
"Haha." Zach laughed, "Then you have been played. You have fallen into their exclusive little trick."
Benjamin frowned, "What a trick."
"Rimmel is a mixed-blood human, or a mixed-blood vampire. Just pick one." Zach raised his eyebrows and revealed the secrets of a certain branch of his tribe to an Alpha without caring, "They don't have the Eye of Charm. The ability, nor the strength and speed that a vampire should have..." Zach shrugged, "The half of human blood limits their abilities as vampires."
"What a trick." Benjamin frowned, reminding Zach of the important point.
"Oh." Zac smiled apologetically, "They were once a group of fanatical magicians who coveted immortality in order to study the art of magic. In the end, they got it from vampires. But they were unwilling to give up their souls to decay. They are not complete vampires, they also gave up most of their vampire abilities, continued to study magic, and created magic called illusion to replace the pain of lost charm."
Zach smiled and patted Benjamin on the shoulder, "You fell under the spell of an illusion and wasted three days 'hunting' for things that don't exist." (..)
