Not long after, this "person", who claimed to be the Queen of all Angels, walked into Dane's room.
Dane stared intently at the other party, completely lacking any gentlemanly demeanor.
The "person" teased: "You like this type?"
Just like in the movie, she transformed into a beautiful woman.
Her skin was brown, her long hair was dark and thick, and her eyes sparkled like stars.
Deep red lipstick adorned her full lips, and a tight-fitting, hip-hugging dress perfectly accentuated her flawless figure.
Dane fully understood Constantine's momentary loss of control.
Question him, mock him, understand him, become him... of course, the last one is quite unnecessary.
What if the other party played a trick and suddenly turned into a bloated old black man during *that* moment.
Wouldn't you just die!
Dane smiled and invited the other party to sit down.
"I apologize, it's my first time seeing a city spirit appear before me, I'm a bit excited."
Why does Los Angeles call itself the Queen of all Angels?
Because the name of Los Angeles is Los Angeles, and it is often called the City of Angels.
This concept is deeply rooted in people's minds, and over time, the Spirit of Los Angeles eventually gained some special abilities.
But these abilities are still powerless before demons; its essence is formed by the collective subconscious of countless Los Angeles residents.
So, naturally, its actions and thoughts cannot escape the constraints of the people of Los Angeles.
The character of the people of Los Angeles dictates that the Spirit of Los Angeles cannot engage in a life-or-death struggle with demons.
She is very good at compromising and very good at using anything she can to her advantage.
Before Dane arrived, her choice was Constantine.
For this, she did not hesitate to expend power to seduce him, drawing out the demon within him.
Now, she saw that Dane's power was stronger, so she unhesitatingly abandoned Constantine and sought out Dane.
The Spirit of Los Angeles's eyes flickered: "You know a lot of things."
"Not much, not much, just happened to know what I should know."
The Spirit of Los Angeles (from now on, let's call her Angelis) immediately felt a bit tricky; this man was not as easy to manipulate as Constantine.
She had once thought of using beauty to tempt this man, but she happened to witness the scene where Diana stabbed Mictlantecuhtli's head with a sword.
Although Angelis had never left Los Angeles, she wasn't so ignorant as to not recognize a divine artifact.
That sword could kill a god, so it could kill her.
And that female demigod, at first glance, had an unusually close relationship with this man.
Angelis didn't want to be inexplicably beheaded; she hadn't lived enough yet.
"Since you know everything, what price do I need to pay for your help?"
Dane did not answer her question directly but said something inexplicable:
"I've set my sights on a city, but I don't know how to meet her, or rather, obtain her."
No need to spell it out, Angelis immediately understood.
She hesitated a little, because this was actually a common secret among all entities that possessed city spirits.
But thinking of her city being poisoned by demons and turned into an inferno, Angelis couldn't care less.
"Does she have a unique culture or a long history?"
Dane nodded.
"Do her people love her as much as they love their mother?"
Dane thought about the behavior of the Kahndaq people in the original work and nodded again.
Then that city might truly have a City Spirit.
Angelis sighed; she didn't bother to think about what Dane wanted to do, as it had nothing to do with her.
"Life forms like us are actually omnipresent; I just prefer to see things from a human perspective."
"If we haven't appeared in a way that humans can perceive, it only means we are in another extra dimension that overlaps with reality."
As Angelis spoke, Dane gradually learned more about the City Spirit.
A City Spirit is not merely the collective consciousness of humans; more accurately, she is like a Gaia system.
Within this system, every living being is a component of "Gaia."
The interaction between life and the environment is complex and continuous, and when viewed with the city as the main body, it precisely exhibits the characteristics of a living organism.
Especially in this World, which possesses magic power, under the influence of magic, this kind of life-like characteristic will be fostered and become a true living entity.
But a City Spirit is, after all, not an organic life form.
Although she has a material "body"—a city—this "body" is clearly immobile.
So, in reality, a City Spirit refers to the city's thoughts, soul, or something more metaphysical.
Her essence is formless and immaterial, so she cannot exist stably in the Real World's material realm.
She can only "survive" in dimensions that allow for the existence of immaterial substances.
And this dimension transcends the concepts of time and space; it is a completely void World.
Dane's expression was a bit strange when he heard this.
An extra dimension that transcends time and space—doesn't this place sound a bit familiar?
Isn't the Rock of Eternity located in such a dimension?
"Can you take me into that dimension?"
He had to verify it.
Angelis hesitated:
"I can, but if I may be frank, your physical body cannot enter that place."
Upon hearing this, Dane took out the Wizard Scepter, his eyes shining.
"That's not necessarily true."
Seeing his persistence, Angelis said no more.
"Then, hold my hand."
Dane held her hand as instructed, feeling no different from a human's.
"It's about to begin."
Dane nodded, indicating he was ready.
A flash of light appeared in Angelis's eyes, and Dane felt a strong pulling force dragging his body.
He did not resist this force, and soon, when he opened his eyes again, the World before him suddenly changed.
It was a completely unfamiliar starry sky, with stars as far as the eye could see, exactly as people imagine a starry sky.
But what was different was that if you looked closely, you would find that the stars were moving slowly.
Their speed of movement was much, much faster than the galaxies seen in the Real World.
Dane could not feel any magic aura here.
"Your physical body can actually enter here?"
Angelis's voice echoed in his ears.
Dane looked back and saw a white mass of gas coalescing into a blurry human form.
The human form had a pair of huge wings behind it.
"Queen of all Angels?"
"Yes, it is I."
Dane gripped the Scepter tightly, divine power surging, and the crystal glowed, faintly pointing in one direction.
He was now certain that this place was the "Void World" where the Rock of Eternity was located.
