Lin Xu: John, I Suggest You Get a Dog

Los Angeles ~

Lin Xu first went to Liverpool, then to London. After touring Great Britain, he finally learned of John Constantine's existence.

But almost everyone who knew him warned Lin Xu that this notorious exorcist was only suitable for hiring, and should never be made a friend.

Because John's friends all met tragic ends.

Lin Xu expressed his understanding, after all, this notorious exorcist's ideal was too grand, so much so that he was willing to betray any friend he could to achieve it.

That means cutting off all the claws and fangs of Heaven and Hell that reach out to the human world!

He's a complete magician Lex Luthor, an extreme and insane humanist.

The former fights against Superman, the latter against Heaven and Hell.

However, since this Constantine has been active in Los Angeles for a long time, it should be the movie version.

To be honest, John in the movie didn't show any signs of betraying his friends; it's just that the things he got involved in were too big, and his friends couldn't handle it, all of them dying as a result...

The moment Lin Xu stepped into Los Angeles, he frowned. This place was too chaotic.

What was Earth like before? It was protected by Kamar-Taj, and even the dimensional lords dared not set foot there easily.

But here, the aura of demons and angels alone is no less than ten thousand.

The people of DC are suffering terribly, living in constant misery.

Half an hour later, Lin Xu arrived at Broadway. Compared to the bustling main city, this street was lined with low-rise, antique-style buildings due to Hollywood's needs.

He found out that Constantine lived nearby.

Magnetic~

A police car pulled up in front of Lin Xu, and two white police officers got out and drew their guns, pointing them at him.

"Kid, your ID."

Are you sure you want to do this?

"I'll repeat that: identification documents."

Lin Xu shook his head. "Tsk, two mixed-blood angels without even wings."

Upon hearing Lin Xu's words, the two men exchanged a glance and immediately opened fire.

Bang bang~

The bullets hit him but didn't hurt, though Lin Xu was a little curious. He'd only just arrived in Los Angeles and hadn't even spoken to anyone yet, so how had he gotten himself into trouble with these guys?

Tsk~

A beam of Third Eye Laser killed one of them. Lin Xu then approached the other man, grabbed him by the neck, and lifted him up.

Who sent you?

The white police officer just stared at Lin Xu with hatred, without saying a word.

"You're not going to say anything, huh? Fine."

With his Telepathy activated, several words entered Lin Xu's mind.

'Father, I am acting on orders.'

"Tsk, someone gave your father orders, but your father actually sent you to your death."

The man's eyes widened instantly upon hearing this.

"What, are you surprised?"

"Ha, Old Gods, Los Angeles is not a place for you." (In DC Comics, the gods in mythology are collectively referred to as the Old Gods, while Darkseid's lineage is the New Gods.)

Snap

"Who the hell are you calling an Old Gods? I'm not even forty yet."

"Ahem, Los Angeles..."

Snap

"I made my fortune in Los Angeles, so why can't I come here?"

"You..."

Snap

Did I fucking tell you to speak?

"..."

Snap

"You dare to ignore me?"

Upon hearing Lin Xu's words, the man's eyes rolled back, his head lolled to the side, and he died.

Lin Xu threw the two bodies into the police car and set it on fire before clapping his hands.

It seems Los Angeles is becoming a playground for both angels and devils; he's only just arrived, and they're already in a rush to get rid of him.

I wonder how powerful this Archangel Gabriel is. After all, he has the face of the Ancient One, so he shouldn't be too bad. (The actress who Gabriel in "Hell" is the same actress who plays the female Ancient One.)

Lin Xu was speechless when Gabriel was mentioned.

Because he felt that the human world was not worth living, he wanted to collude with the son of Satan to carry out a great purge. His plan was to wipe out this generation of humans and then forcibly convert the new ones to God. (Some versions say this is because he was androgynous and disliked by God, so he did this to attract God's attention.)

He's basically an enhanced version of Thanos.

Snap~

"Hiss... Aren't you afraid of their retaliation for doing this?"

At this moment, a figure walked out from behind the telephone pole. Although he was only about thirty years old, his suit could not hide his decadent appearance.

Lin Xu had already spotted him, and now, seeing Keanu Reeves' face, he instantly knew this was the person he was looking for. "Don't worry, they can't beat me."

"Many people say that, but they all died tragically, well, even gods~"

"I'm different."

"Hiss~ Hoo~ I hope so~" John said no more after hearing this, and turned to leave.

"John Constantine, right? My name is Lin Xu. How about we become friends?"

John stopped in his tracks upon hearing this, but didn't turn around. "Since you've heard of me, you still dare to be my friend?"

"I enjoy challenges."

"I don't believe an Old Gods would befriend me for no reason. What is your purpose?"

Lin Xu spoke frankly and without reservation, "I'll find an opportunity for you to sacrifice yourself for the greater good."

John turned around abruptly and scrutinized Lin Xu: "Are you... alright?"

Then John suddenly realized. "You want to see God?"

After all, his own soul had already been preordained by Heaven and Hell, and he was quite certain that if he died, God or Satan would personally come and take his soul away.

"Talking to smart people is so much easier," Lin Xu snapped his the Snap, looking appreciative.

"Don't be ridiculous. Do you think someone like me would choose to sacrifice myself for the greater good?" John chuckled self-deprecatingly, but he still walked up to Lin Xu and extended his hand.

Regardless, this is, after all, a god. Having a god as a friend means having something to rely on when facing a crisis.

Lin Xu grabbed John's hand and grinned, "I used to think the same way you did."

John instantly seized on the flaw in that statement. "So, you later chose to sacrifice yourself for the greater good? Did you then meet God?"

"I didn't die, did I?" Lin Xu said, then suddenly paused.

Surely it couldn't be that God saw his performance in Marvel and forcibly took him away from Marvel, right?

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xu shook his head, banishing the idea from his mind. Putting aside whether OAA agreed with God taking people, even if He did, He had no way of seeing this scene.

John asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just think you should quit smoking."

John shook his head. "Many people say that, but how am I supposed to live without it?"

Lin Xu looked at his face earnestly. "I know, it's about psychological comfort, but it doesn't necessarily have to be cigarettes. You could also get a dog, but when you do, you have to be careful of car thieves!"

John: What is all this nonsense?

The mushrooms I bought the day before yesterday, probably weren't prepared properly, have been spoiling for three days straight...
