Having dealt with the demons, the group continued their advance.
They arrived at the Mental Hospital's swimming pool, the very place where Isabel had jumped to her death in the original plot.
Since water serves as a medium connecting the human World and Hell, Mammon could occupy Isabel's body more easily in the pool.
When Fang Yuan and the others arrived, they saw Isabel standing alone in the swimming pool.
"Isabel!"
Angela immediately wanted to rush over, but Fang Yuan grabbed her.
"Something's not right!" He signaled Angela to stay back. "Constantine, go take a look."
"Mm... Huh?"
Constantine had just agreed when he suddenly realized something was off.
What did he mean by having him go look alone?
"You're going to die anyway," Fang Yuan said righteously.
Constantine's mind was a mess of curses. He took several deep breaths before deciding to prioritize the big picture and not lower himself to Fang Yuan's level.
He stepped into the pool and tapped Isabel. She didn't react, so Constantine circled to her front, only to find her face had turned black, and she was wearing a sinister smile.
"Damn it!" Constantine shouted. "She's not Isabel, she's Mammon... Mmph!"
Before Constantine could finish, Mammon grabbed him by the head and shoved him directly into the pool.
Chas rushed over to help pull Constantine out, while Fang Yuan grabbed the 'Isabel-Mammon Limited Edition'.
Mammon controlled Isabel's body, trying to break free. Under demonic possession, strength is much greater than that of an ordinary person.
Especially with a possession by a demon of Mammon's caliber; Isabel's current strength surpassed that of an average Superhuman.
After all, the movie was a standalone World and didn't emphasize physical power; Constantine and Chas alone could hold her down.
But now, under the DC Universe setting, let alone two people, even twenty might not necessarily be able to handle Mammon's host.
However, Mammon was surprised to find that he actually couldn't break free.
Even if he hadn't fully taken control of Isabel's body, no one should have been able to stop him.
He hurriedly looked back to see whose subordinate this was, possessing such martial prowess.
One look was all it took to send a massive shock through his heart.
"It's you!"
Mammon's rage seemed ready to overflow, and he was so angry he became somewhat incoherent: "You... you..."
Fang Yuan directly covered Isabel's mouth.
"You're a mature demon now; don't make such a fuss," Fang Yuan teased.
Hearing Fang Yuan's mockery, Mammon actually calmed down.
That's right. He wasn't just a mature demon; he was the Son of Satan. He should be intimately familiar with betrayal and deception; there was truly no need to feel surprised.
But Mammon still felt so angry!
Not only had his treasures been swindled by this bastard, but more importantly, his IQ was being rubbed into the ground by Fang Yuan over and over again.
"Ga... Ga-mmph!" Mammon tried desperately to shout, but Fang Yuan held his mouth tightly, leaving him no way.
"What is he shouting?" Chas asked.
Constantine's brow furrowed. "It sounds like he's calling for someone... Oh no!"
He suddenly realized that since Mammon hadn't fully manifested yet, someone must be helping him!
"There's another demon nearby!" Constantine recalled the demon they had just killed. "Balthazar?"
He quickly rolled up both sleeves, revealing the tattoos on his forearms.
The Sigil of the Red King. It could force hidden things nearby to manifest. Constantine had split the complete Sigil of the Red King in two and tattooed them on his arms; they would take effect as soon as they were brought together.
With the backs of his hands facing outward, he struggled to bring his arms together to join the tattoos into a complete pattern. Instantly, an invisible force radiated from his hands, squeezing the surrounding space.
In the ethereal realm, everyone seemed to see a pair of wings unfurl.
Bang!
Constantine was knocked over onto the ground. A short-haired woman with wings stepped on him with her bare feet, pinning him down firmly.
Constantine looked as if he had seen a ghost. He never imagined that the mastermind behind the scenes wasn't the Balthazar he expected, but—
"Gabriel!"
Constantine shouted the name in anger, and then everything suddenly clicked.
"No wonder Mammon had the nerve to betray Satan. It turns out an Angel was helping him."
"Betrayal, murder, genocide... You really are something," Constantine accused with hatred.
Gabriel's tone lacked even the slightest fluctuation; she didn't believe she was doing anything wrong.
"I just want humanity to see the consequences of squandering God's gifts so recklessly."
Hearing their conversation, Angela and Chas were both stunned.
Gabriel?
That legendary Archangel?
The current scene was an incredibly powerful shock to the believers. People knew the story of Lucifer falling to become Satan, but Gabriel?
From Angela's expression, Fang Yuan clearly saw the feeling of a collapsing faith.
Constantine was naturally unsatisfied with Gabriel's answer: "By letting the Son of the Devil descend into the human World?"
"Exactly." Since she had already been exposed, Gabriel intended to let humanity know her good intentions. "Every one of you has received salvation from God."
"Murder, robbery, rape... as long as you repent, God will take you into His arms. Across so many Worlds and so many races, only humans have this privilege."
Gabriel shook her head.
"It simply isn't fair!"
She hauled Constantine up from the ground. "Since humans have such a gift, I will make you worthy of this honor!"
"I have observed humanity. Only when facing the fear of life and death can you find your noble selves."
"So, I will give you fear."
"Only the humans who survive this Hell on earth will be worthy of God's love!" Gabriel said with profound emotion. "The path to redemption begins tonight!"
She gently blew a breath at Constantine, and he was blown out of the hall by an unstoppable gale. She even conveniently shut the doors on him.
Next were Angela and Chas; they were also tossed aside by Gabriel, unable to get near the swimming pool.
Fang Yuan's heart stirred. He leaned close to the Isabel-Mammon version's ear and whispered, "Don't say I didn't give you a chance."
Just as Mammon was feeling puzzled, he saw Fang Yuan summon lightning to attack Gabriel. But after Gabriel assumed a combat stance and flapped her wings, the lightning on Fang Yuan's body actually dissipated. He was then struck and sent flying through the doors where Constantine was, landing beside him and not getting up again.
Gabriel had actually knocked Fang Yuan unconscious in a single move.
"Huh?"
A string of question marks flashed through Mammon's mind, and an unbelievable thought suddenly surfaced—
"Could it be that Fang Yuan really wasn't lying to him?"
"I told you demons shouldn't make such a fuss," Fang Yuan complained inwardly.
If he didn't faint and make Constantine lose all hope, how would Constantine take that final step?
Sure enough, Constantine frowned deeply as he looked at his defeated teammates.
He even prayed to God, which was unprecedented for him, but there was no response.
At that moment, he saw the broken glass shards on the ground. Finally, with unwavering determination, he grabbed one and slit both of his wrists.
