Descent, Rescue

To be honest, Hellboy was somewhat skeptical of Constantine's words. Even though Constantine had just saved him and prevented him from being outmaneuvered by Zeldar, he couldn't really trust Constantine's character. He had betrayed his partners far too many times...

Therefore, Hellboy had no intention of taking the initiative to make a move. Even though he knew that Zeldar's attention had been drawn away by Constantine, who was hiding in the shadows, Hellboy had other plans in mind, such as taking advantage of Zeldar's distraction to find a way to take Kael away!

"Get out here!" Facing the empty church with no one else around, Zeldar frowned. He was at a crucial moment in his plan and could not afford to make any mistakes.

Especially since Zeldar had been preparing for so long, he couldn't afford to have anything go wrong at this final moment. In fact, if it weren't for the appearance of Hellboy, Zeldar would have wanted to push Kael's Human Vessel to the next level. At this moment, Zeldar would have already successfully summoned the Hell Lord behind him.

At this moment, facing an enemy Zeldar Zeldar to abandon his plan to integrate Hellboy into the bloodline of Kael. He wanted to directly make Kael the Human Vessel to provide for the descent of the Hell Lord, so as to avoid any unforeseen changes.

Zeldar wasn't without suspicion that the newcomer was Hellboy's henchman. The problem was that Hellboy, now recovered from his injuries, showed no intention of attacking him. This made Zeldar think that perhaps Hellboy didn't even know who the hidden enemy was. It was more likely that the person was planning to take advantage of the situation, but the opportunity was too good, and he couldn't resist attacking him, thus underestimating his strength.

"What the hell? These two aren't fighting anymore?" Constantine, hiding in the shadows, looked at the two who had stopped fighting and seemed to be thinking their own thoughts, and couldn't help but mutter to himself in exasperation.

Constantine never wanted to intervene, and now that the two had stopped fighting, he was even less able to. After all, he was definitely no match for Zeldar, and if he dared to show his face, he would surely be soundly defeated by Zeldar. Especially since Hellboy seemed to have no intention of cooperating with him whatsoever, it meant that Constantine would be the one getting beaten up...

However, just as Constantine was brooding over the lack of action from Zeldar and Hellboy, the situation within the church took a new turn. Hellboy was the first to act...

With a "whoosh!", Hellboy vanished from his spot, and Kael, standing beside him, also turned into a blur and disappeared into the church.

"Damn it!" Zeldar reacted instantly, roaring as he stared furiously in the direction Hellboy had disappeared. But the anger quickly vanished, replaced by a mocking glint in Zeldar eyes. "Trying to escape? Too naive. I'll give you a surprise then. I've already given up on attacking you directly. Once the Lord arrives, he can deal with you..."

Meanwhile, Hellboy escaped the church with the incapacitated Kael. At first, they sensed the presence and sounds of Zeldar's riot, but Hellboy soon realized with puzzlement that Zeldar didn't seem to be pursuing them.

This Hellboy Hellboy puzzled, but he didn't dwell on the reasons. Instead, he decided to take Kael back first, since staying here was undoubtedly more dangerous than leaving. Even if Zeldar really had some kind of conspiracy, Hellboy could have a proper showdown with him after he had settled Kael.

Besides, Hellboy thought that perhaps Constantine's side had been discovered by Zeldar, which caused the delay. This was his opportunity. At worst, he could bring Kael back and then come back to help Constantine, as a way of repaying the favor of Constantine for helping him block one of Zeldar's attacks.

Unfortunately, Hellboy didn't notice that Kael, whom he had been holding, was now different. Kael's aura began to slowly change, and the aura of hell became more and more obvious until it completely covered the original aura!

With a "crack!", as the aura completely changed, the layer of divine power on Kael's body was instantly shattered, like a piece of broken ice.

"Huh?!" Hellboy immediately sensed something was wrong, but a powerful aura still sent Hellboy flying. Just that one aura made Hellboy feel a life-or-death crisis!

"Kael?! What happened to you?" After falling to the ground in a sorry state, Hellboy ignored his own injuries and hurriedly called out in Kael's direction. He had not yet realized what the change in Kael's aura just now meant.

"Kael? Hmm, not a bad name. I'll be called Kael here on Earth. It'll also help me hide my identity. If any visitors from Hell come, they won't know my background..." Kael's eyes flickered slightly after hearing Hellboy's words, as if he was reading Kael's memories, and then he said with a smile.

"That's interesting. Earth is truly an interesting place. Despite its relatively low level of technology compared to other parts of the universe, it has managed to create artificial Demon. It's practically a natural offshoot of the Hell Dimension!"

"You're not Kael?! Who are you?!" Hellboy also heard Kael's words, and his expression changed drastically. He thought of what had happened before and wanted to find out the identity of this Hell Lord had taken over Kael's body.

"I am Kael. What? Don't I look like me now?" Kael looked at Hellboy, smiled, and shrugged, saying softly, "Look, a perfect body, a perfect soul, a 100% fit, not a single abnormality. How can you say I'm not me?"

"A dignified Hell Lord, you don't even dare to utter your own name?" Hellboy took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and questioned Kael in a deep voice.

"To be honest, I'm a little hesitant..." Kael smiled frankly, giving Hellboy a deep look before saying, "Besides, I think there's something wrong with you. Even I don't quite understand your origins. You also have the blood of Hell Lord flowing through your veins, but you seem to be even more powerful than me?"

"Furthermore, the fact that humans can create artificial Demon seems inextricably linked to you. Your bloodline is truly peculiar. Perhaps you harbor the schemes of an even more powerful Hell Lord. Therefore, I don't particularly want to attack you, at least not right now..."

"Then leave Kael's body!" Hellboy roared.

"No, no, no, you misunderstood me. The reason I don't want to reveal my identity or attack you is because although I'm on Earth now, I haven't taken over yet. Once I do, I won't care which Hell Lord is behind you, and I won't be afraid. Besides, the entire Earth will be my territory, and everyone will be able to chant my true name..." Facing the volatile Hellboy, Kael spoke calmly and elegantly.

From the visuals, one side is the completely Demon, ferocious, and violent Hellboy, while the other side, although possessing some Demon features, wears a kind smile and appears quite Kael. Given this, it's difficult to determine from the images who the true villain is...

However, when Mephisto's avatar first appeared, he was actually an old gentleman, and Lucifer also seemed quite kind before. So, this is probably just a way for the Hell Lord to hide his identity and personality.

"No wonder we couldn't find any power or formation for the descent before. Everything was already contained within this Human Vessel ..." Robet's eyes flickered slightly as he looked at Kael in the shadows. Robet had been waiting for the battle between Hellboy and Zeldar, waiting for the descent of the Hell Lord, and at the same time trying to find a way for the Hell Lord to descend. However, Robet had overlooked Kael himself.

Or rather, Robet did examine Kael's body briefly, but Robet certainly wouldn't have thoroughly examined Kael's entire body, inside and out. Just as Robet couldn't directly extract the Venom from Peter Parker's body at the beginning, the Hell Lord formation within Kael's body was even more concealed than the Symbiote, making it naturally not so easy to discover.

"You want to hide your identity? Then I'll expose your identity completely, and also expose your coming to Earth!" Just as Robet was muttering to himself, Hellboy, whether provoked or out of his mind, roared and charged towards Kael.

With a "whoosh," a powerful force quickly bound Hellboy, and no matter how much Hellboy struggled, he couldn't break free, which filled Hellboy with despair.

Previously, Hellboy had encountered formidable enemies, but at that time he was able to defeat them by fighting to the death, and then continuously improve his strength, gradually surpassing his original formidable enemies.

But this time the situation was completely different. Hellboy was facing a Hell Lord. Even if the other party was hiding his identity and unwilling to reveal it, and certainly didn't seem to be the top-tier Hell Lord, he was still Hell Lord, far beyond Hellboy's ability to contend with...

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. I'll just lock you up and that will be fine. After all, there's a dimensional barrier. Even if you have a powerful bloodline, the lord behind you can't monitor your situation all the time unless you're dead..." Kael said softly with a calm smile after binding Hellboy.

"However, it won't matter once I've achieved my goal, because no matter how powerful the Hell Lord behind you is, he won't be a match for me, whether on Earth, our home turf, or after I bring the Earth Dimension into the Hell Dimension."

Kael made no attempt to conceal his plan. After all, in Kael's view, Hellboy was already captured and had no chance of escape. As for the powerful figures on Earth, the only one Kael was slightly wary of was the Ancient One...

However, Kael already knew what the Ancient One had done Inter-dimensional Space. He wasn't deterred by her actions; instead, he felt that the Ancient One in this state might be a last resort, putting on a show of deception. He figured that if he just kept a low profile and focused on developing his strength in the early stages of his arrival on Earth, the Ancient One might become his opponent.

Even though he was discovered as soon as he arrived on Earth, Kael was confident enough to deal with the Ancient One. After all, he wasn't suppressed by the Earth Dimension. This wasn't exactly his home turf, but since the Earth Dimension's suppressive power didn't exist, the Ancient One wouldn't have much of an advantage either!

This is the advantage of Human Vessel descending to Earth; aside from the fact that the physical body isn't as functional as the original, he can be considered a life form on Earth!

With a "Kael!" sound, however, something unexpected happened the next moment. Just as he was filled with confidence, Hellboy, whom he had been holding, disappeared.

"Who?!" Kael could clearly sense that an external force had rescued Hellboy, which instantly put Kael on alert. Anyone who could save someone from his clutches was no ordinary person!

"It's you?!" On the other side, Hellboy, who originally thought he probably wouldn't be able to break free from Kael's restraints, suddenly gained his freedom. When he saw Robet beside him, Hellboy was stunned. He didn't expect Robet to save him.

"Yes, it's me. Go and coordinate with Constantine to take care of that Hell Demon King first." Robet nodded with a smile and said softly, "As for this Hell Lord, I'll leave him to you..."

Hearing Robet's words, Hellboy instinctively wanted to say something, but he quickly saw Robet's gaze—a gaze filled with fighting spirit and desire. Upon seeing Robet's gaze, Hellboy's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly nodded, saying, "Okay, I understand. Thank you for saving me. If possible, could you please save Kael...?"

"He's already dead. He died the moment this Hell Lord descended, or rather, the moment the power of the Hell Lord was engraved into his body, everything was beyond redemption. Don't blame yourself too much. Your strength is far inferior to his. Hurry up and leave. This guy is about to make his move..." Robet slowly shook his head, and as he spoke, he saw Hellboy out. Then he looked at Kael and smiled.

"Why are you so impatient? It seems you're also looking forward to this battle. I hope you won't disappoint me!"
