In Diana's home, a group of people sat around the fireplace, leaning on the tea table on the outer edge of the fireplace, relatively silent.
For Diana, what happened today was really sudden.
She knew something about Eagle Man and Eagle Girl. They were two very mysterious but very "active" people. They appeared in almost every time period, in every region, and even in some ancient kingdoms' books, sculptures, and murals. These two appear in all of them.
Diana didn't know much about them, but a chance encounter many years ago, when facing a common enemy, Diana had a smooth cooperation with them. She had reason to believe that these two Not a bad person.
Of course, if so, Diana wouldn't mind asking Lynn to do something more.
For Eagle Girl and Eagle Man, what happened tonight was too magical.
How should I start... Anyway, everything is magical. Hawkman still felt that his head hurt. It was not a common thing to be slashed while wearing a helmet.
What left them speechless was that after the matter was discussed and the misunderstanding was resolved, they discovered that it was indeed all their fault.
Wrong misidentification of the enemy, wrong miscalculation of one's own defense power and the enemy's attack power, mistakes, all mistakes.
The only thing to be happy about is probably that they can still sit here now instead of being chased by that madman.
Speaking of that crazy guy Lynn…
Ying Man looked back with a guilty conscience, and he saw Lin En, who was behind him and not sitting with everyone, looking at him with a... sinister look, and a smile that was not very friendly at the corner of his mouth. .
Is that a smile? Smiling evilly?
"cough!"
Eagle Man coughed hard, trying to draw everyone's attention to himself, and also "remind" Linn that his expression was too dangerous. We are teammates now, right?
However, Linn didn't seem to receive this "reminder" at all. On the contrary, he reached out and pulled his chair, rubbed it forward twice, spread his legs, bent over, and rested his elbows on the top of his knees. He tilted his head and looked directly at Ying Man: "Do you have something to say?"
"Cough! Uh-huh!"
Eagle Man coughed violently and avoided Linn's sight.
This guy is indeed a lunatic.
Those outrageous rumors...may all be true! !
"Okay, now that everyone has cleared up the misunderstanding, let's get down to business."
At the critical moment, Diana spoke in time, saving Eagle Man from the embarrassing moment.
"You two, I just heard you say that you mistook Linn for...Hades.
Why do you think so, how do you know Hades is still alive, and why do you come here to find him. "
Although she looks like an amiable peacemaker, it is obvious that Diana has never been a "soft" person. She works directly and uses simple and crude methods. This has not happened for a day or two.
Eagle Man and Eagle Girl didn't feel that such a question would be offensive at all. After all, compared with the madman behind him who was still looking straight at him with a scary smile on his lips, everyone looked so amiable. .
These are all compared.
"If you saw that three-headed hellhound, you would recognize it just like I do... Oh my god! It's in your heart!"
The sudden appearance of the three-headed hell dog obviously only frightened Ying Man himself. Fortunately, he could be considered a veteran hero who had experienced battles for a long time, so he quickly suppressed his shock.
"You caught it?!"
He suddenly reacted: "This one is definitely a three-headed hell dog! Do you know that Hades is still alive? You are here to find him too?"
Looking at Constantine, Diana knew that this time she was on to the right point.
………………
After a brief exchange of information, the room once again fell into a brief silence.
The information I learned from Ying Man was not very good. It turned out that the two of them were chasing a molten elf from another place all the way here. After briefly losing the news about the newborn elf, They found the elf in another place.
Only the molded, dead elves remain.
All that's left of it is a heart that has lost its color and is broken like glass.
The elf did not die of natural causes.
He became like this because someone used some ritual or something to drain all his life force.
At first, Eagle Man thought that it was a certain Egyptian pharaoh, an old rival of theirs who had come looking for him again, but when they followed the traces and traced it, they found that it was not like that.
There is a god! There is no reclusive god walking in the world, sucking life force everywhere, seducing and killing a large number of mythical creatures.
Moreover, that guy seems to have been actively looking for something. His movements are complicated, running back and forth, circling all over the world, with no fixed destination at all.
On the way, while passing through a town, the two of them discovered the identity of the god.
He is Hades!
Moreover, he seemed to have found some kind of companion.
As for why Eagle Man and the others were able to find this place, it was because there seemed to be an aura of the underworld that had not dissipated. It seemed... everything seemed to have started from this place. This was the starting point for Hades.
That's why they thought of coming here to investigate.
What I didn't expect was...
The atmosphere of Hades and the power of death here are strong, purely because the three-headed hell dog raised by Hades is here, and Constantine took the initiative to shake the power of death here, so that with the help of magic items, Hadi could calculate location.
What they didn't expect was that they didn't catch Hades, but instead caught the two unlucky guys, Eagle Man and Eagle Girl.
Is this thing considered a dead fish?
this is a problem.
……………………
"Hades has help? Do you see who it is? How many are there?"
Things seemed to have suddenly changed, and Diana felt that this might not be a good sign. The most important thing was that they now had no idea what Hades wanted to do and where he was.
If they act purely based on their speculation, they are likely to fall into some kind of trap.
"Lynn, what do you think, Linn, Linn!"
"ha?"
Lin En raised his head sharply: "Me, I think... I need a suit of armor."
"well……"
Diana sighed heavily. It seemed to be getting more and more difficult to understand, becoming more and more powerful, and it had gradually brought them to an unpredictable situation. As for their own side, even if they beat themselves, there is another one who is completely out of shape.
What armor!
"Don't you always fight with your own head! You...oh, I'm sorry, I'm not talking about you. I'm sorry."
Linn does rely on his high vitality and strong recovery ability to not defend at all. In this regard, he seems to be more arrogant than Clark in the Man of Steel.
However, after the words were spoken, Diana saw the embarrassed expression of Eagle Man, who had a wound on his head that had not yet completely healed. He was pointing at the monk and scolding the bald man.
Accidental injury, purely accidental injury.
"Lynn, what are you thinking? Just say something."
"What do you think?"
Linn finally stood up from his seat, walked to the small table, and sat next to Eagle Man, squeezing the person away from him a long distance.
"Of course we are going to find Hades. Do you have any other opinions?"
"But……"
"But what?"
Linn's face was full of doubts: "But what? Constantine, you can't find him?"
"Well... it should be possible. Especially with the help of these two, it should be easier to find him."
With the location where Hades once appeared, the clues provided by Hawkman and Hawkgirl, and even the three-headed dog of hell as a "living beacon", Constantine can't think of any explanation if he can't find it again. excuse.
"That's fine then."
Lin En shrugged: "All your worries and plans are just too much thinking. Find him, then kill him, or it will be over.
No matter what, I’ll take the lead and resist the damage for you~”
It seems difficult to say such words from Linn's mouth. He is not such a person.
really.
"As for the reward for being a meat tank..."
Lin stood up again, raised his hand and patted the shoulder of Ying Man who was trying his best to hide beside him.
"Just get a few hundred tons of that metal."
"It's not m..."
Yingnan explained weakly: "It's n..."
"It doesn't matter, just give me this one on you, and give me the same set in various forms. Have you seen Saint Seiya? Haven't you? Ha, I have no experience. Let me tell you..."
"Lynn!"
"Okay, okay...one set. Just get me one set."
With a snap, Ying Man was patted on the shoulder harder: "I wonder if this big boss can satisfy my small request..."
"……able……"
Is this still an option? !
"Okay. Thank you for your free sponsorship. I will draw the drawings for you in a moment.
So now..."
Linn clapped his hands: "What are you waiting for? Let's eat first. After eating, go and kill Hades."
……………………
bar? Cabaret? Stage theater?
This is a strange place, but it is big enough and broad enough.
A wooden back partition with staggered heights and twists and turns serves as a giant wine cabinet and also divides this space into several completely different but connected places.
Outside, there was a feast of feasting, and young people wearing leather jackets or shirtless danced to the passionate music and blinding lights, releasing their youthful impulses.
On this side, at the other end of the wall is a small, long, simply modified T stage. On it are dancers of various colors who are either coquettish or innocent, but uniformly dressed in cool clothes. Sitting below are dancers who all look like They don't look like ordinary people, guys who hide their identities.
Counting from one direction to the other, the one at the end is a middle-aged drunkard with blond hair and beard, leaning slumped in the chair, drinking from the bottles in big sips, and from the bottles around him It looked like he had drank dozens of kilograms of wine.
Next to her, sitting an old woman, wearing a gorgeous palace dress that should not appear at all on such an occasion, looking at the girls on the stage with a pair of greedy eyes.
Next to him, the one standing two meters tall, sitting there a whole head taller than the others, with black hair, black beard and black clothes, is of course Hades.
Sitting next to Hades is, of course, his old friend, Vulkan, who has many names.
The chair next to it seems to be a person without legs. He is the only person sitting here with a smile, his eyes are bright and amiable.
Next to him, sat a pair of twin girls with expressionless faces, like wooden dolls.
The last one, sitting at the very side, is a middle-aged beautiful woman. She...she is very normal, just like an ordinary human being who comes here to watch a show.
She would even clap happily when people on stage passed by her, put her hands to her mouth and encourage them loudly.
Eight people, front, back, left and right, sat unevenly in a semicircle, with no communication at all between them. Even except for a few people, most of them did not move at all and just sat there stiffly.
One minute, two minutes... After more than ten minutes, the performance on the T stage ended. The last girl walked from the front to the backstage, and no one came out of the small side door.
The show is over.
"well……"
The old woman sighed faintly: "It's great to be young... I haven't dared to look in the mirror for a long time.
Can I eat them? "
"Oh, haven't you always only eaten men? Why, this time it's not for vitality, but because of jealousy?"
The legless man looked very kind, but his words were very sinister, but even when he said such words, he had a warm smile on his face.
"Boring. Can you guys fight? I have two swords here."
The expressionless twin girls raised their arms, one on the left and the other on the right, and two black daggers emerged from the air.
"If you want to fight, these two of mine are more suitable. You two, please, hundreds of years of hatred, maybe today we can come to a satisfactory result."
With two dunk sounds, Vulkan threw out two big swords and stuck them on the ground.
"No one's coming, hehehe, then I'll come."
The drunkard threw the empty wine bottle in his hand to the ground, pulled out a big sword, turned around, looked around, and looked at everyone: "You come, you come? Hahaha, you all come together. It's also okay!"
"I hate crazy people the most..."
When everyone was observing others in secret, Hades spoke indifferently, raised his hand, and the sword in the drunkard's hand fell out of his hand uncontrollably, and fell back to its original position exactly.
He turned his head and glanced at Vulkan, who also waved his hand and took back the two swords.
At this moment, everyone's expressions became very interesting. The twin girls who were originally expressionless began to show mysterious smiles, while those who originally had smiles on their faces, such as the old woman and the legless man, instantly changed into His face was ashen.
"Hades, you are recovering well."
The middle-aged woman talked about Hades, but looked at Vulcan: "You have a good relationship. I thought you had changed your career to be a male servant, but it seems not."
"Jesse...you'd better be more careful when you speak..."
"Oh~ I've touched someone's sore spot~ Haha, Vulcan, can you speak on your own behalf now~?"
The big sword appeared in his hand with a clang, and Vulkan stood up. Just when he was about to say something, Hades spoke again: "That's enough. Everyone, I'm not here to watch your internal fighting. "
As he spoke, he motioned to Vulkan, who was still staring at the middle-aged woman with a cold expression, to sit down, narrowed his eyes again, and said coldly: "When our goal is achieved, you can kill each other as much as you want. Whatever, or... I can help any of you realize his wish.
Does anyone have any other opinions? "
Everyone had different expressions, but there was silence.
"good."
Hades opened his eyes again: "Then, I say, you listen."
