Chapter 453 The Death of Naboo (Part 2)
Outside the Tower of Destiny, Constantine awaits the end of this battle with anticipation.
Could Doctor Fate handle Rune? Definitely not. Constantine knew his abilities all too well, especially considering Doctor Fate's recent desperate pleas for help.
As far as he knew, no one was willing to lend a helping hand to this mage who had once represented order.
Not far away, a graceful figure walked over.
"Has Rune already made his move?"
Constantine looked at the speaker; she had a very pretty face and wore a shameful outfit, especially her lower body—fishnet stockings paired with high-heeled over-the-knee leather boots.
Actually, the two together don't reveal much, but they still make people's imaginations run wild.
"Yes," Constantine replied with a smile. "It's a pleasure to see you again, Zatanna."
Zatanna nodded to the mage, a gesture of greeting. The two hadn't had much interaction before, and Constantine's various actions—
How should I put it? He always gives off a bit of a hooligan vibe.
After a moment of silence, Constantine asked first, "Why did you come here?"
Zatanna sighed. "I came for peace. Both Rune and Doctor Fate are maintainers of order in the magical world. I hope they—"
Before Zatanna could finish speaking, Constantine burst into laughter.
There's no way around it, this is just too funny! Rune himself is the source of the turmoil in the magical world. He himself can be considered law-abiding, but the new sources of magic he introduced have caused huge upheavals in the entire magical world.
The number of mages who indirectly died at the hands of runes may be greater than the total number of mage deaths in the past century.
As for Doctor Fate?
Kent Nelson is certainly a good man, but the god behind him is no good at all. The order that Naboo maintains only benefits himself, and many mages have long harbored deep resentment towards him in private.
"Am I wrong?" Zatanna wasn't angry; she had already sensed from certain clues that Naboo might not be as friendly as he appeared.
"Completely wrong," Constantine said with a smile, a mocking look on his face. Look at this little girl in front of him, actually believing in Doctor Fate?
Just then, a small crack began to appear on the outer wall of the Tower of Destiny, and a faint cracking sound reached Constantine's ears.
"Leave now."
Zatanna looked at Constantine blankly. "Wh--why are you leaving?"
"This tower is going to explode, get out of here!" Constantine's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
This Tower of Destiny is already renowned; its creator is the God of Order, and its location is situated at one of Earth's magical nodes. Anyone who controls this Tower of Destiny possesses immeasurable magical power.
Containing this magic also poses a serious challenge to the Tower of Destiny itself, and countless magical runes and artifacts are used to suppress and maintain the Tower of Destiny.
Constantine was also eyeing the knowledge and artifacts contained within these runes.
As for what effect taking the artifact will have on this Tower of Destiny—what does that have to do with him?
Furthermore, when constructing a building of this caliber, there must be a surplus in the quantity and quality of artifacts and runes; otherwise, wouldn't the Tower of Destiny be easily destroyed by any attack?
Therefore, taking some artifacts is definitely not a problem.
However, the problem now is that Rune has stirred up some trouble inside, and the entire Tower of Destiny is beginning to be overwhelmed.
Zatanna's eyes widened, and she indeed spotted the tiny cracks. But her first thought wasn't to escape; instead, she shouted at Constantine, "We need to reinforce this tower, or there will be problems!"
Of course, problems will arise. The explosion of a magnificent structure situated at a magical node would have a significant impact on Earth, especially considering the powerful magical outburst unleashed by Rune himself within it.
Even Constantine couldn't imagine how spectacular the explosion would be!
"Are you crazy?!" Constantine yelled. "That thing won't care about your relationship with Rune when it explodes!"
As he shouted, the cracks began to spread upwards, covering the entire Tower of Destiny.
Zha Kang glanced back and immediately knew that the Tower of Destiny was about to shatter. He grabbed Zatanna and skillfully opened a portal, intending to push her inside.
"No! If the Tower of Destiny shatters, the people around will—"
"There aren't many people around, you should go inside!" Constantine was on the verge of tears. If you want to die, don't drag me down with you, okay?
Even if you manage to avoid the explosion of the Tower of Destiny, don't forget that there are still two big shots fighting inside!
Back then, Rune's magical burst had left countless superhumans and mages, including them, drenched in sweat. Although Doctor Fate was certainly weaker than Rune, their battle was definitely not something they could witness up close.
"I don't!"
Zatanna's response was extremely firm, her hands still gripping the edge of the portal. Her compassion for life and her insistence on justice were already evident, but to be so coy at this moment would be tantamount to courting death!
But—who is Zha Kang?
He was a detective from hell, someone who had manipulated countless demon kings and archangels. A somewhat lewd but absolutely effective method came to Kang's mind.
This young mage, from a prestigious family, had never been molested like this before. She immediately covered her chest with both hands and screamed.
The direct consequence of this was that Zatanna lost her balance and fell headfirst into the portal. Constantine, on the other hand, glanced back at the Tower of Fate.
At this moment, the Tower of Destiny was covered with terrible cracks, and countless viscous, pitch-black substances began to seep out.
As expected, Rune should have won this battle.
Constantine shook his head, then tossed the cigarette butt in his hand and jumped straight into the portal.
What awaited him on the other side was a slap.
Snapped!
Just seconds after Constantine left, the entire Tower of Destiny exploded. Amidst the clash of various magical forces, the tower was reduced to dust the instant it exploded, losing all its former grandeur.
However, the grand spectacle that Constantine and Zatanna had envisioned did not materialize.
Under Rune's suppression, although there were still strong winds and abnormal temperature changes around, everything was completely under control.
With his current power, he could suppress not only Earth, but even the sun, Rune.
The monsters that emerged from the nightmare returned to the dream world, and the vast sea of magic vanished without a trace.
Rune stood on the ground, while dozens of meters away, lay an old man dressed in tattered clothes, his golden helmet lying three meters away.
"No, no, no, I beg you, I still have a lot of magic, you know, a lot, I know you—" A pleading voice came from inside the helmet. Rune was instantly standing next to the golden helmet, but his eyes were indifferent.
Under the immense infusion of magic, even the supposedly magic-resistant N-metal turned crimson and eventually liquefied. Rune knew that Nab wanted to exchange his magical knowledge for a chance to live.
However, Rune already possessed the ability to read minds, and with the help of memory magic, he could extract all of Naboo's memories in a matter of seconds.
Why don't I just look at your memories and learn magic?
However, Naboo's betrayal caused Rune to completely lose patience with the magical world.
