"Alright, let me see, what should I do first?" In the dark basement, Constantine sat in the center of the room, looking at the messy heap of casting materials around him, stroking his chin and saying, "Should I summon All Things Green and have him turn the broccoli back, or should I find Shiller first and save him?"
At that moment, Constantine remembered Shiller's earlier reaction, sighing he said, "I really should read more, allergies could be so severe, I thought at most he would just complain a bit."
"But it is true, just like I don't like sweet wine, if there is just one glass, I can ignore it, but if I am made to swim in a pool of sweet wine, I might also go crazy...anyway, let's deal with the broccoli problem first, or who knows how that narrow-minded Shiller will retaliate against me."
Having said that, he stood up and began to pick through the casting materials, planning to set up a summoning formation to bring All Things Green over, and dissolve the contract they had made before, letting him turn the broccoli back.
But just then, with a "bang", the basement door was kicked open. Constantine was startled and silently retreated a few steps. Seeing that Batman was the one who arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief, patting his chest and saying: "Oh, it's you, you scared me. I thought the devils had come looking for me again."
"But seriously, can you not open the door so violently next time? Luckily, I didn't set any traps on the door this time, otherwise, you might have been shot into the Pacific Ocean." Constantine shook his head as he walked back to the center of the room, but at that moment, he felt something was wrong with the atmosphere.
He looked at Batman standing in the darkness, and with Constantine's highly intuitive senses, he saw a terrible dark tide behind Batman.
He retreated a few more steps in silence, leaning against the corner of the wall, and said to Batman: "What's the matter, Bruce, are...are you in a bad mood?"
"Find Shiller's location." Batman's voice was low and hoarse, he said: "As quickly as possible, find Shiller's location."
Constantine was somewhat nervous, but he still pointed at the pile of casting materials on the floor and said: "Oh, yes, I'm working on it. I was just planning to summon All Things Green to deal with the broccoli."
"I said find Shiller's location." Batman repeated, and Constantine frowned and said: "Even if you want to rescue him from the agents' hands, you have to take care of his allergy first. Otherwise, even if he could return to the mansion, wouldn't he still be uncomfortable?"
"I messed up with the broccoli thing, and I'll take responsibility for cleaning up this mess. Later, I'll have to be extorted by All Things Green again. Let me see, who should pay this time?"
Constantine wanted to divert his attention back to the pile of materials on the floor, but the next second, he heard a whistling sound next to his ear. Turning his head, he saw a flash of light, and a Batman dart embedded in the crack of the brick behind him, less than two centimeters from his ear.
"Batman! What are you doing?!" Constantine yelled in alarm, "You almost took off my ear!!!"
"Alright, I get it, you're angry. I shouldn't have grown so much broccoli and caused Shiller to have an allergic reaction, but I didn't know his allergy was so severe. It was just an accident, and it's still salvageable. There's no need for you to kill me, is there?"
"Find Shiller's location quickly." Batman repeated again, then he said, "Shiller is seriously injured, only you can find him in the quickest way, hurry."
Hearing the tremors in Batman's voice, Constantine frowned, and his face gradually became stern. He stepped forward and asked Batman, "Are you saying, Shiller is injured? Did those agents dare to hurt him?"
Seeing Batman's expression, Constantine didn't ask any more questions. He immediately began to prepare the casting materials, and while arranging them he said, "I think, you probably have realized by now, the fastest way for magicians to find people is through the Spirit Realm."
"In the Spirit Realm, we can directly locate a person's soul, and ignore the obstacles in reality, and travel there in the fastest speed." Constantine arranged some branches into a circle and brought over some spices.
"But only souls can traverse in the Spirit Realm, and ordinary souls cannot interfere with the material world." Constantine handed Batman a bottle of spices and said, "But as long as you attach some extra power to your soul, it can temporarily have a physical form. With your soul strength, you just need a bit of magic energy, and you can beat all those ordinary human agents."
"Alright, get ready." Constantine stood in the circle, and Batman entered as well. Constantine crouched down, five fingers touching the ground, preparing to release energy into the materials. But after crouching there for several seconds, he let out a puzzled "Huh?"
He pulled his hand back, took a few deep breaths, lit a cigarette, and then said: "You made me too nervous just now, the magic energy isn't flowing smoothly. But that's okay, we'll try again."
Having said that, Constantine crouched down again, his five fingers touching the ground, but still, there was no reaction after a few seconds. Constantine tried again with his other hand, changed his position, and replaced all the casting materials, but to no avail.
