There were still a lot of manuscripts on the table.
But it was a pity that most of the words were blurred and could not be clearly seen.
Although he had read through the manuscript left behind by Wilbur Wattley, Constantine had more questions in his heart. Whether it was the mysterious golden egg that fell, or the
Constantine put down the yellowed manuscript in his hand, turned to look at Nexia, and asked curiously, "According to your request, I have finished reading the entire manuscript, but it did not mention the truth of all the puzzles."
According to the previous practices, now it should be the decryption of the "Prophet".
However, this time, Nexia has no 'spoilers'
"Uh.."
Constantine was stunned for a few seconds. Then, he suggested, "Aren't you going to say something?"
"It's not time yet."
Nexia shook her head. She raised her hand and pointed to a certain place in the room. "There is a mechanism there that can open a secret passage."
Constantine suppressed the doubts in his heart and walked to the place where Nexia pointed to and pressed the mechanism.
Rumble.
As the room shook, the rock wall rolled to the right.
An even darker and narrower tunnel suddenly appeared in front of the two of them. Amidst the waves of cold wind blowing from it, there was a faint smell of blood that made one feel nauseous.
"What a heavy smell of blood!"
Constantine frowned and covered his nose. "Do you know where this tunnel leads to?"
"The devil's nest, the source of the godly ascension plan, the factory mentioned in Wilbur's manuscript." Nexia took a deep breath and said slowly, "The place where the golden egg first fell is also the final destination of our trip."
"Wait."
Constantine looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Didn't you say before that you wanted to find the key?"
Nexia calmly said, "I have the key."
"Why didn't I see it? When did you get the key?" Constantine's eyes showed a touch of surprise. He had been observing Nexia all the time, and he did not see her take anything from here.
"The key is just an adjective."
Nexia explained, "It's not a normal key. I can't explain it to you."
"It's fine if you don't want to say it."
Constantine was speechless and said, "But now there are only the two of us. Should we wait for Lod to finish and go to the factory together? It's safer this way?"
"It's too late."
Nexia shook her head and said, "Father will catch up soon. Let's go to the factory to stop the project."
"Are you sure that the two of us can do it?" Constantine expressed his doubts. The two of them might have died in the past. That cabinet of black magic books was not a joke!
"That's enough."
Nexia was very sure. She nodded and said, "Actually, if you want to stop the godly ascension plan, the most important person is not me, but you, John Constantine!"
"Me?"
Constantine was extremely surprised, thinking about how he could stop Wilbur's Ascension plan.
"That's right, it's you."
Nexia confirmed again, "Or to be exact, only you can stop the ascension plan."
"Wait a minute."
Constantine seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly became a little strange. "I'm the only one who can stop you. Don't tell me you are planning to sacrifice me to summon Lucifer, right?" he asked.
Perhaps it was because he had too many teammates to offer sacrifices to, so at such critical times, he felt that others might harm him.
Especially the last time in Los Angeles, Constantine still remembered the fact that Lod tried to offer sacrifices to him to summon Lucifer. Now that he had met this guy's daughter, it was inevitable that he would not be worried about this.
In a sense.
He could be considered to have suffered from persecution paranoia. After all, he had done too many shameful things. It was impossible not to worry!
"You're thinking too much."
Nexia was a little speechless. She shook her head and said, "I won't sacrifice you. Moreover, this place is very special. Even if you die, Lucifer will not appear, so don't worry."
"Really?"
Constantine still had some doubts. Although his intuition told him that Nexia was not lying, he still wanted to confirm it again.
"Really."
Nexia felt tired and said helplessly, "Not everyone likes to sacrifice their teammates like you."
"Alright, I'll believe you this time!"
In the end, Constantine was still defeated and moved by the girl's sincere eyes.
The two of them entered the tunnel in turn.
This place was similar to the one that led to the room. It was a secret tunnel that was secretly dug out in the underground rock layer.
Because the city outside had always been raining, even the underground could feel the dampness. Drops of water continuously dripped down from the cracks in the rock walls. Their feet were covered with unknown moss. The feeling of stepping on them was very slippery. Coupled with the small path paved with gravel, it was quite difficult to walk.
Crack. Crack.
Constantine and Nexia, one deep and one shallow, stepped on the uneven gravel road. In the pitch-black environment where they could not see their fingers, they slowly moved forward on the wet rock wall.
This dark road was very long.
They walked for more than ten minutes, but they did not see any light. There was only endless darkness in front of them. The deeper they went, the more stinky the air became, and even the temperature became higher and higher.
wet...slippery...stuffy....
Constantine wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked up at the dark environment in front of him. He suddenly had a strange feeling. This dark path was like the mouth of a giant beast, and they were the ones who walked into the trap and were about to be digested.
He continued to advance.
After an unknown period of time, just as Constantine could no longer endure and wanted to curse, he suddenly heard the roar of a machine.
"We're almost there!"
Constantine's mind jolted, and he hurriedly quickened his pace. He did not care if there were any traps, and he almost ran out.
Rumble..
The roar of the machine became louder and louder. In this enclosed space in the secret passage, it was directly magnified countless times. It was like a rumbling thunder that shook the eardrums. Even when he placed his hand on the rock wall next to him, he could still feel the clear vibration.
Finally, he saw the end!
At the end of this dark tunnel was the area right below the factory that was usually used to excrete the abandoned sewage.
However, the current underground water drainage system was piled up with countless broken corpses. Even the river channel was filled with blood. The stench that they smelled came from here!
"--"
Seeing this bloody scene, Constantine felt his stomach ache. He could not help but turn around and throw up on the wall.
"Come with me."
Nexia's face was slightly pale. Her eyebrows were tightly furrowed. It seemed that she was not used to the environment here. She walked straight into the depths of the underwater system.
"When I go back, I will change to vegetarian!"
Constantine panted as he leaned against the wall. He wiped the green bile from his mouth and followed Nexia with a bitter face. He did not want to stay here for a moment.
