Zeldar's mentality would certainly be considered abnormal among humans, but it's quite common among Demon, especially considering that Hellboy had previously offended him and the two had become enemies.

Zeldar had initially thought Hellboy had some powerful background, so he didn't dare to really kill Hellboy and could only choose to hide. However, he didn't expect that Hellboy not only had no background but also relentlessly pursued him. Zeldar would be doing himself a disservice if he didn't teach Hellboy a lesson!

With a loud "bang!", Hellboy, who had been forced to retreat under Zeldar's watchful eye, finally made his move. However, he did not want to actually hurt Kael, so he chose to use his giant pistol to smash Kael back.

However, Hellboy seemed to have forgotten that Kael was no longer a normal human. Originally, he was just a human with Demon blood and power, but now he had completely transformed into Demon. And Hellboy's giant pistol had collateral damage, specifically targeting Demon!

With a "whoosh," even though Hellboy was unwilling, he inevitably left some injuries on Kael's body when he repelled Kael, and even the divine aura was constantly assaulting Kael's body.

Fortunately, Kael was also very powerful, and this little bit of additional corrosive power was not enough to cause Kael any real harm. However, it did anger Kael, and when he felt the pain, he instantly became Wrath and spewed out a ball of flame that spread towards Hellboy!

Hellfire, one of the powers that Venom fears, is also one of the most common powers in the Hell Dimension. This flame is of course somewhat different from Ghost Rider 'Hellfire, but as long as the user is powerful enough, it can achieve the same effect Hellfire.

At this moment, facing the approaching Hellfire, Hellboy dared not be careless. He quickly adjusted the giant pistol in his hand, and then a cannon shot echoed in the church.

With a "bang!", a divine power was released from the gun barrel, colliding with Hellfire Hellfire and swiftly extinguishing it on the spot. The true strength of Kael, who was given high hopes by Zeldar, was no match for Hellboy. Even though Kael had devoured many of his companions and greatly increased his strength and bloodline, it was still the same.

After all, not to mention that Hellboy himself already has the strength to fight Zeldar head-on, the origins of Kael and the others are themselves closely related to Hellboy.

After arriving on Earth, Hellboy was raised and cared for by the military. Even when the military used Hellboy for experiments, Hellboy did not refuse. Kael and the others were not just created based on those Hell Demon, but also have some of Hellboy's bloodline!

It's easy to imagine that countless Demon were captured in previous Demon incidents, and almost every faction studied Demon in an attempt to gain their own extraordinary power.

However, among all these forces, only the military force to which Hellboy belonged successfully developed these Demon experimental subjects, such as Kael, and Hellboy played a crucial role in this.

Therefore, in a sense, whether it's Kael or the other Demon experiments, they can all be considered descendants of Hellboy, only their bloodline isn't that strong.

However, Hellboy also grew from a weakling to a powerful figure, so the military still has great confidence in these Demon test subjects, and even hopes Demon they can all grow to the same level as Hellboy.

However, it's clear that Kael is no match for Hellboy now, even after he's devoured so many of his companions and completely transformed into Demon. Of course, Zeldar didn't expect Hellboy to die directly at Kael's hands; he just wanted to see Hellboy struggle with his decision and unwilling to make a move.

But the current situation seems to have deviated somewhat from Zeldar's expectations. When Hellboy actually begins to resist, it will be difficult for Kael to truly stop Hellboy. If Zeldar wants to achieve his new goal, he will have to take action himself...

"Huh? They've already started fighting? Has the Hell Lord not descended yet? Why is the Human Vessel still fighting Hellboy?" On the other side, Robet and Constantine appeared outside the church. Looking at the situation inside, Constantine couldn't help but mutter to himself.

To avoid being discovered by Hellboy beforehand, they kept a slight distance from Hellboy. When they arrived, Hellboy was already fighting with Kael, and Zeldar was watching Hellboy intently from the side.

"Didn't you say before that the Human Vessel was related to Hellboy? He's fighting Hellboy now, so he must have completely lost control. But it seems that the Hell Lord hasn't really descended yet? Is the preparation not complete?" Robet's eyes flickered slightly as he surveyed the situation in the church. To be precise, he wasn't observing Hellboy and Kael, but rather the possible methods by which the Hell Lord might descend.

"I haven't found anything..." Constantine understood Robet's meaning. He also observed the surroundings, trying to find out how the Hell Lord descended. Unfortunately, even though Robet's observation skills were amazing and Constantine was very knowledgeable about various hell magic, they still couldn't find any signs of how the Hell Lord descended.

That makes sense, after all, the Hell Dimension is incredibly vast, with countless Hell Lord, each specializing in different areas. Each Hell Lord descends to other dimensions in a different way, making it impossible to understand them all.

If you're lucky, you might encounter a few Hell Lord use similar methods of descent, but it's clear that the Hell Lord about to descend this time is not using the method of descent that Constantine is aware of.

Just as Robet and Constantine were observing the situation around the church, the battle between Hellboy and Kael took a new turn. Actually, it wasn't quite a battle; it was more like Hellboy finally couldn't hold back and actually attacked Kael.

Hellboy realized that with a powerful enemy nearby, wasting time fighting Kael would be dangerous. He decided to subdue Kael first, then fight Zeldar and try to get Kael away from this place!

With a "thud!", Hellboy, now serious, decisively struck, his giant pistol piercing through Kael's body. At the same time, a powerful divine force erupted, instantly enveloping Kael 'Kael body, corroding it, and trapping Kael in place.

This move is practically Hellboy's signature move. He used it during the Hell Demon incident, capturing countless Hellboy Hell Demon. Those Hell Demon could only fight against the divine power, unable to break free. And now, Kael is no exception!

With a "whoosh!" sound, just as Hellboy had trapped Kael, Zeldar appeared behind Hellboy and punched Hellboy in the body.

With a loud "bang!", Hellboy reacted quickly to Zeldar's sneak attack, but he had only just trapped Kael, and it was impossible for him to replicate his previous victory against Zeldar. He could only strike Zeldar with his most powerful right fist, and this collision was no different from the last one.

With a deafening roar, Hellboy's body flew through the air, landing awkwardly on the ground. His right hand exploded once more, leaving him looking quite miserable.

Of course, compared to last time, Hellboy's right hand doesn't seem to be in as bad shape this time. Last time, his right hand was shattered like a smashed cucumber, but this time, it's just like a smashed watermelon, which is more intact than a cucumber that's about to rot...

However, such an injury was nothing to Hellboy, or rather, nothing to Hellboy's right hand; he recovered instantly.

"Aren't you going to deal with that Hell Demon King? Aren't you going to make a move? If you do, the Hell Demon King will offer himself as a sacrifice, and I doubt Hellboy would refuse..." Robet said softly to Constantine after Hellboy and Zeldar's first clash.

"Huh? I'm afraid I'm no match for him. Why don't you just kill him?" Constantine hesitated as he looked at Robet and said. Letting him reap the spoils of war was no problem, but to slowly deal with a Hell Demon King, especially a top-tier Hell Demon King, was something Constantine was unwilling and found difficult to do.

"Me? What if that Hell Lord actually shows up? Are you going to deal with him? Don't you understand the principle of soldiers fighting soldiers and generals fighting generals?" Robet glared at Constantine and asked, annoyed.

Although Robet didn't know how Zeldar planned to summon the Hell Lord, Robet thought that Zeldar must have complete confidence, otherwise there would be no reason for him to be playing around with Hellboy here.

Of course, this was because Robet and Constantine arrived late and were unaware that Zeldar had already conceived the idea of using Hellboy's bloodline to enhance Kael, which is why they wasted time on Hellboy.

"Alright, with Hellboy leading the charge, maybe I really can be of help..." To be fair, Constantine's strength isn't weak, especially now that Constantine's paid off a lot of his debts. Some of his old trump cards can now be used again, which undoubtedly greatly increases his arsenal.

However, trump cards are, after all, consumables. If you can gain more trump cards and greater benefits without using them, Constantine naturally doesn't want to use them. But now that Robet has spoken, Constantine has no choice but to act, unless Constantine is truly prepared to deal with a Hell Lord.

As for dealing with the Hell Lord, Constantine knew without a doubt that it was impossible. Even if he used all his trump cards, he still couldn't defeat the Hell Lord. Even his avatar wouldn't be enough. The fact that he was able to escape from the Hell Lord using his trump cards was already a testament to Constantine's skill!

With a "whoosh!" sound, inside the church, just as Zeldar had punched Hellboy away and was preparing to press his advantage, a mysterious power transformed into a cold light, pointing directly at Zeldar's brow.

Even Zeldar sensed an approaching danger. This danger might not kill him outright, but it would certainly injure him. Therefore, Zeldar was forced to stop, abandoning his pursuit of Hellboy and choosing to dodge the attack first, while also seeing who had ruined his plans...

With a "whoosh!" sound, Constantine's attack missed its mark as Zeldar dodged, but this bought Hellboy enough time for Hellboy right hand injury to fully recover.

After recovering from his injuries, Hellboy still didn't know who was helping him. He subconsciously glanced in Kael's direction and saw that Kael was still bound by his divine power. It was clear that Kael hadn't regained consciousness to help him. Besides, Kael's power wasn't enough to help him fight Zeldar; he didn't have the strength, did he?

"Who is it?! Show yourself!" Zeldar, clearly annoyed by the attack, roared at his surroundings with a dark expression, but Constantine showed no intention of appearing.

What a joke! Being targeted head-on by the Hell Demon King is no match for the Hell Demon King lurking in the shadows. If he can deal with the Hell Demon King from the shadows and let Hellboy lead the charge, why would Constantine take such a huge risk by appearing in front of Zeldar?

"What are you waiting for? Why don't you take advantage of the fact that I've distracted him and make your move? Don't worry, I'll secretly help you after you make your move. But let me make this clear first: if this Hell Demon King is going to die in the end, he'll belong to me; he'll be my spoils, understand?" Just as Zeldar was still searching for Constantine's whereabouts, and Hellboy was also filled with doubt, Constantine, who had been waiting for Hellboy to make a move but hadn't, finally became somewhat impatient and reminded Hellboy telepathically.

"Constantine?!" Hellboy never expected that it was Constantine was secretly helping him. However, Hellboy quickly realized that Constantine had been following him all along and had not given up for so many days. Otherwise, he would not have appeared here!

Thinking of this, Hellboy's face darkened. He hadn't expected Constantine to be so persistent, not giving up for so long...
