Chapter 959 Holy Thirteen and Ifrit (Part [-])
Thirteen is a special number that has different status in many cultures.

There were thirteen people at the last supper table, and then Jesus was betrayed by Judas; the Persians would go out on No.13 days to avoid bad luck, because the ancient Persians believed that the zodiac constellations would control the twelve months of the year, No. After 12 reincarnations, the sky and the earth will collapse, and thirteen represents chaos; Taoism uses twelve as a reincarnation, and thirteen represents transcending reincarnation, which means jumping out of the three realms and not among the five elements; in Buddhism Thirteen is also an auspicious number, and the thirteen Buddhist sects represent the consummation of merit and virtue.

Salomon knew that his destiny was closely connected with the number thirteen, and even the day he met Beunita was also related to the number thirteen.He chose this number entirely out of objective reasons, and it has practical significance in magic. The customized ritual was written and set by Salomon himself, which can direct energy to him instead of other things.

In addition to him, two other people are needed to perform the ceremony together, corresponding to the three pillars.The ten mass points plus the invisible three mass points, namely nothing, infinity, and infinite light, correspond to the stigmata, that is, his soul.22 paths need to be prepared for 22 days.It will take thirteen days from the beginning to the end of the ceremony. Only in this way can his soul return to the real world safely, not more or less.

No matter how developed the Immortal City is, it is difficult to play a role in this matter. This is his own risk.

If Stephanie had known what he was up to, she would have screamed at him for being irresponsible, and begged Salomon repeatedly to drop at least an 800,000-ton hydrogen bomb on Los Angeles.She doesn't care how many people die in Los Angeles, she only cares about the safety of her monarch.Wu Guiyue, the guardian of Karma Taj's temple, also persuaded Salomon to choose 99 ascetic monks when performing the ceremony, and they would be able to bear the cost of the ceremony for Salomon.If their lives can be exchanged for Salomon's life, then they will be willing to give, this is their mission.

Of course, these things are not important to him now.

Bayonetta sent Dinah a pot of goulash, and she took a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet.There is nothing more important than a family dinner, and even if the end of the world is imminent, Salomon has to sit in a chair and eat this meal before going out to fight.The beef stewed with brown sauce is soft and rotten, and the carrots are even sweeter. The witches are talking about the fun things they have encountered in the past with red wine, talking about the art salon with Athena, and talking about the relationship with Samuel Shaw. And Ms. ROOT's boozy orgies, and Samuel Shaw talking about how many lives their little organization saved.

Bayonetta had regained her long hair, black as the wings of a gloomy raven.Joan of Arc also kept her long hair, but her long hair was whiter than the snow on the snow-capped mountains, and it was even more dazzling.The witches looked relaxed, as if Salomon's upcoming adventure was no different from going out to sweep the snow.Tonight, they will perform a ceremony, a sacred ceremony inherited from the Queen of Sheba, an ancient ritual of blood, sex and love.They incorporate their affections into rituals, dedicating themselves to Salomon to enhance his power.

So this pot of beef stew has a lot of peppers in it.

"Stop, Ifrit!" Constantine lowered his head and barely squeezed into the door of the energy laboratory.

Hearing this seldom-mentioned name, the Spirit of Vengeance stopped what he was doing, and stared at the Praetorian Guards with burning hollow eyes.Ifrit is an elf in Arabic mythology. An elf is always bound to an object and controlled by it. The vengeful spirit attached to Robbie Reyes is such an elf.The reason why Constantine called out this name was to let Robbie Reyes' consciousness temporarily overwhelm the consciousness of the Vengeful Spirit, so that he could have basic logical judgment ability.

This is an ancient knowledge he learned from his lord before carrying out his mission. Now the name of Ifrit and the meaning behind it have long been forgotten.This approach had an effect. Although the black leather gloved palm of the Ghost Rider still held the polluted spirit tightly, he did not continue and burned it to death with the Eye of Judgment.

Constantine made a gesture, drawing a seal image in front of him with his fingers.

"What the Fuck..." Leopold Fitz huddled against the corner, his legs weak with fright, "Who are you!"

A translucent ghost is scary enough, but it's not unheard of.Immediately afterwards, a flaming skeleton broke in without any explanation, wearing a black biker suit that didn't fit at all, and could have been snatched at first glance.Then there was a menacing, three-meter-tall giant in gorgeous golden power armor.When S.H.I.E.L.D. sent Leopold Fitz to carry out the mission, he never expected that there would be so many twists and turns in this simple recovery mission.

"My lord needs that spirit body." Constantine glanced at the translucent spirit body.Even though his face was blurred, he still recognized the identity of this spirit body, it was one of the people who created this energy laboratory in the first place.The idiot was pardoned when he heard this, as if the Janissaries were his savior. "He knows the message our Lord wants," said Constantine, "and he can't die until he says it."

"Fitz! Hurry up and get me out!" Mike patted the observation window hard.He was imprisoned by the spirit body in this reactor that had already been shut down. Although the reactor was not large in scale, if it was restarted, the heat generated would be enough to vaporize him.Even if he didn't die, radiation sickness would have killed him.Now that the reactor is still some time away from restarting, Mike needs Fitz to release him quickly to stop the reactor from restarting or melting down.

Ghost Rider touched his upper and lower teeth, and tilted his head in disbelief.

"I'm coming!" Fitz cautiously leaned against the wall, bypassing the increasingly tense atmosphere between the Guards and the Ghost Rider.He tried with all his strength to unscrew the switch of the feed inlet, but the switch seemed to be locked and remained motionless.Fitz kicked the gate anxiously, but nothing changed.He became more and more anxious, he felt his heart rate soared, his hands and feet were cold, and his eardrums seemed to be drumming.Mike had to speak out to comfort Fitz, telling him not to worry and use his brain more.

"I'm the one locked in here now, little monkey," he said. "Don't worry, you're the smartest of us, you can always figure out a way."

"Not necessarily this time, Mike." Fitz gritted his teeth and said, "You might die!"

"The machinery in this room also needs to be checked." Constantine's flat voice came from the loudspeaker in the face grill.He stepped forward and looked down at Leopold Fitz. "Please step aside." Before Fitz agreed, Constantine pushed him away.The Imperial Guard activated the switch, and inserted the flashing halberd into the thick alloy gate. The edge where the blade touched the metal became red and hot, and Constantine cut the feeding port like butter. The switch is off.Fitz opened his mouth in surprise, and Mike, who escaped from the predicament, looked at the weapons of the Imperial Guard curiously.

"Stop the reactor meltdown," Constantine said to Fitz, "or you might die."

"Okay, Okay..." Fitz quickly threw himself on the controller and started his work as if waking up from a dream, while Mike followed behind him, his eyes fixed on Constantine and Ghost Rider, and nothing was recovered. One life to relax.Although Ghost Rider stopped temporarily, Robbie Reyes didn't seem to intend to terminate his work. It seemed that peace had never been reached between the golden armored giant and the flame skull. The flashing halberd was always aimed at the ghost knight.
