Chapter 359: Ambiguous Fate (Please subscribe, read, and comment on the monthly ticket)

Martin pushed the door open and returned to the real world without encountering any obstacles.

Although Murphys was dismissive of Martin's criticism and even a little annoyed, he was not petty enough to attack him behind his back.

"Why do you look so much like a child?"

Martin was helpless with Murphys.

He is like a child. Although he has good intentions, he has no idea how to turn his kindness into real actions. He always moves forward stubbornly, thinking that as long as he achieves the preset goals, he will get a happy ending.

But he did not see or pretended not to see how many people were hurt in the process.

If it was an ordinary child, Martin could use violence to force him to take another path and change his mind.

But this trick didn't work for Murphys, so Martin decisively chose to go their separate ways to avoid getting tired of each other and causing more conflicts.

The only thing to be thankful for now is that although Morpheus is stubborn, he is not stupid. The additional damage caused by his actions will only be limited to him and will not spread outward.

"Death, oh death, I tried my best. You can't let me fight him?"

Martin spoke to the empty air, but he knew that death would be able to hear his voice.

After a while, there was no movement around him, and Martin knew that death had no intention of forcing him to do anything, so he relaxed.

"As long as you don't mind my failure with Morpheus, can you do me another favor and tell me the whereabouts of the three magic weapons?"

No matter how much they quarrel, Martin still has to help Morpheus get his three props back, otherwise those things will circulate in human society and may cause some trouble.

This is not a toy for children to play house. Once it falls into the wrong hands, the enormous power will instantly overwhelm the mind of the holder of the magic weapon, causing irreversible consequences.

Death still did not answer, and there was still silence in Martin's ears.

He spread his hands and shook his head, "Well, it seems I can only find those magic weapons myself."

Martin had no expectation of getting an answer from death.

After all, the other party's identity is not ordinary, so it is not a bad thing not to interfere with real-world life casually.

Martin observed the situation around him and found that he was still in Burgess Manor. The housekeeper and servants who were affected by the dream sand called the police and doctors and were preparing for the funeral of the two old people.

He did not disturb them, but left the manor quietly, then contacted the alliance, and the person who answered the phone was Diana.

"We investigated the clues you mentioned, and the situation is much more serious than we imagined. Since the beginning of the last century, many people have suddenly fallen into a long sleep, and no matter what method is used, they cannot be awakened. Many people have spent their entire lives in sleep.

Preliminary estimates indicate that more than one million people have been affected. Even now, many people’s sleep is still affected.”

Martin summoned Hoof Shadow, but did not rush to leave the manor. He talked through the screen: "I have rescued the master of dreams. As long as he finds the three magic tools you and I have in the human world, he will be able to quickly reconstruct the order of dreams. At that time, the boundary between illusion and reality will be reconstructed."

"So where are the three magical instruments?"

Diana got straight to the point. As a hero of the Olympian gods, she was very familiar with these things.

Martin shook his head: "This is the problem we need to solve. Morpheus and I have some disagreements on how to find the three magic tools.

I have the name and portrait of the last person who came into contact with the three magical instruments. Let's start from there and find out where he was active in human society."

Ma Li shook the book in her hand, and the pages constructed by dreams were transmitted to the alliance's computers through the Internet.

"According to your information, this woman escaped from Burgess Manor nearly a century ago. Are you sure this name and information still have meaning?"

Batman barged into the conversation, earning a cold stare from Diana, but he shamelessly pretended nothing had happened.

Diana stared at him angrily and replied with a dissatisfied tone: "You know nothing about the power of these magic weapons. Even if the woman who escaped cannot use the magic weapons, there are many people who are willing to pay the price for it."

In order to avoid misunderstanding, Diana added: "The existence I am referring to is not just the wizards among humans, there are many other existences."

"You mean angels and demons?"

This topic immediately attracted everyone's attention. The alliance still knew too little about the mysterious side, so everyone was very interested when this topic was brought up.

Diana thought for a while, then shook her head: "To be honest, I haven't come into contact with heaven and hell many times. I've only seen some minions. But no matter whether it's angels or demons, they are always busy, so it's not surprising that they are involved in this matter."

"Everyone, pay attention!"

Seeing that their discussion was going off track, Martin quickly brought the topic back on track: "The key is the three magical instruments. As long as we can find them back quickly, as for whether the angels and demons will appear, we can talk about it when we meet them."

"Then are you coming back?"

Batman knew that this matter was not as simple as Martin said, but he could not make it public and spread the existence of the Infinite Family.

"I'll wait for your news. If there is anything related to the magic weapon, notify me immediately."

Although Martin asked the alliance to be prepared, he did not plan to mobilize too much manpower to deal with the matter before the situation spread.

It is unknown whether the woman who stole the three magical weapons can use them and to what extent she can exert their power.

What if the other party is a genius who can control the power of dreams, which would be impossible for ordinary people to resist.

Especially those in the Justice League, their magic resistance is close to zero, and their defense against mind control is almost non-existent.

If Martin leads the entire alliance to rush forward, and if they run into the opponent's dream control, half of the people will be controlled.

Among them are Superman and the Flash, and it is hard to say who Martin will deal with at that time.

Martin expressed his concerns, and Superman and the Flash spoke up for him, but were suppressed by Batman.

"You should also be careful of the nightmare that escaped from the dream. It is a monster that only enjoys killing."

"That Nightmare Collins is much easier to find than this runaway woman. He never tried to hide his whereabouts, not even changing his name."

When it comes to serial killers, Batman seems to have come across something old and instantly became interested: "He likes to dig out the eyes of people after killing them. His method is very special. I just searched on the computer and countless cases popped up. And he has no special requirements for the victims, regardless of gender or age, and he also has sex with them."

Batman said as he pulled up the files, which included a detailed description of the crime scene and an autopsy diagram of the body.

"Oh, Batman, do you really have to show these things? We are not interested in serial murders."

Superman protested on the spot, and the others were not perverts and certainly were not interested in such a bloody scene.

Martin also felt uncomfortable when looking at the photos of the corpses, but the moment he saw the corpses, the authority in his body was triggered.

He saw the struggle and pain of these people before they died, and then their souls were devoured and trapped somewhere, unable to be freed.

“This guy is really not afraid of death. He is so arrogant. Isn’t he afraid of provoking Death?” Martin didn’t know what Death’s attitude towards Nightmare Collins was. Anyway, he really wanted to twist that bastard’s head off and kick it like a ball.

All the pain that the dead had suffered before was stuffed into his mind. Martin seemed to have experienced the death process of those people again, and his eyes were dug out alive.

After such torture, Martin's original indifference towards Collins instantly turned into hostility, and he wanted the other party to suffer before dying.

"are you OK?"

Batman and the others noticed the change in Martin, and even through the screen they could see that he covered his eyes with his hands.

"I accepted the gift of death, saw the bodies of these people, and passively experienced their pain."

Martin did not hide it. After Batman removed the file, he lowered his hand covering his eyes. "These are all small things. Don't worry about them. Continue with the plan. We will find you an effective way to deal with dreams."

"Don't worry, leave these matters to us!"

Batman cut off the communication, and Martin touched his head. It took him a while to get rid of the pain of those dead.

At this moment, Martin finally understood why there would be a burnout period after death. It was because she had endured the fear and unwillingness of too many people before leaving this world. It would be strange if she was not affected.

"Quack, Mr. Martin!"

Martin sorted himself out and was about to leave the manor when he heard the sound of crows.

He looked up and saw Morpheus's crow flying out from the void and landing on Hoofying's head.

Snapped!
At this moment, the crow was about to say something when it was kicked away by the hoof shadow and its head fell directly into the ground.

"You're being a bit harsh!"

Martin tapped Hoofshadow's head, gave it a little lesson, and let the warhorse carry him to pull the crow out of the soil.

"Are you okay?"

"Bah, bah, bah, your horse is too wild."

The crow spat out the dirt in its mouth and started chirping and cursing, but the warhorse did not respond.

Martin stopped the crow from cursing and asked, "Let's get down to business. Why are you coming to me instead of staying with Morpheus?"

The crow kicked the hoof shadows fiercely a few times before answering Martin's question: "The master has met the three goddesses of fate and learned the whereabouts of the three magic weapons from them. I came here specifically to inform you."

Although Martin doesn't like Murphys' attitude, he won't miss the news just to compete with him.

"The master's sandbag is in the hands of a magician in London."

The name of John Constantine immediately popped up in Martin's mind. He was the most famous magician in the whole of Britain.

"The helmet was offered as a sacrifice to the devil in hell in exchange for an amulet."

Martin was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this matter was actually related to the devil in hell.

Speaking of which, Lucifer is chasing his wife in Los Angeles. Hell has no controller. What will happen if Morpheus breaks in at this time?
"The ruby was given by a mother to her son."

"Gone?"

Martin stared at the crow. "Morpheus has been going on for so long, and all he got in return was three ambiguous sentences?"

The crow was also helpless: "The three goddesses of fate have always been so vague and never speak more than half a sentence. Master, is there nothing you can do?"

"Then why doesn't he just go find destiny? Aren't all the things related to destiny in the universe branches of his eldest brother's power?"

Martin complained about Murphys's behavior of taking off his pants and farting.

The crow didn't know how to defend his master: "Mr. Martin, my master's attitude is very bad, but he is so anxious to restore the boundary between fantasy and reality as soon as possible to ensure the safety of mankind."

"Don't worry, I'm not a petty person."

Although Martin was unhappy with Murphys, he would not joke about such a serious matter.

"I'm going to go to the wizard holding the sandbag. You return to the dream immediately and notify me immediately if there is any unusual movement."

"Do not worry!"

The crow patted its chest, spread its wings, and returned to its dream.

Martin called the alliance again and told them the three prophecies given by the goddess of fate.

Diana immediately complained: "Is there anyone who still believes in the ambiguous predictions of the goddess of fate these days?"

"That's not the point."

Martin also doesn't like the goddess of fate group. They are always weird and can't even stabilize their own existence.

"The sandbag is in Constantine's hands. Go check where that guy is now. The helmet is in hell. It shouldn't affect human society.

The remaining language about the ruby is too vague. It is possible that the woman who stole the magic weapon gave it to her child, or it may have been lost and passed on to other hands. I would like to trouble you to continue investigating."

"Don't worry, we have already done our best to ensure that we can dig out information about that woman as quickly as possible."

Diana made a promise, but then began to worry about Martin's safety: "You have to be careful. Even if you have the blessing of death, you can't take too many risks."

"Don't worry, I won't take my life for granted."

Martin and Diana were affectionate for a while and said a few sweet words to each other before receiving the latest news.

After leaving Gotham, Constantine flew back to London. It was said that a big client asked him to perform an exorcism.

"It seems to be a priest of the Anglican Church, and the British royal family is also involved."

Diana looked like she was enjoying a good show.

When Martin heard about the royal family, he also scoffed: "Hearing the names of those vampires makes me sick. Their existence in this world for one day is a huge injustice to all mankind."

Martin could still tolerate those big business groups, but he had no good face at all towards the royal family, the garbage left over from the feudal era.
