In fact, for Fang Yuan, he didn't really need to involve Constantine.
After all, he knew all the key figures like Gabriel, Mammon, and Isabel, and Isabel was already in his hands.
Since Isabel hadn't died, her sister Angela wouldn't know what was happening and wouldn't go looking for Constantine.
However, if Constantine didn't join, Fang Yuan would have to deal with Gabriel himself to resolve the crisis.
Who knew how powerful Gabriel was? Fang Yuan didn't want to take any risks.
"I have to find a way to trick Constantine into this." Fang Yuan's eyes darted around as another devious plan formed.
But before that, Fang Yuan planned to take Isabel to a church, mainly to see if God would give any hints.
Of course, he didn't go to the cathedral where Gabriel was; that would be walking right into a trap.
"Speaking of which, I should keep Isabel's sister Angela with me too. It wouldn't be good if Gabriel found Isabel missing and targeted Angela instead."
Fang Yuan suddenly remembered this and took it to heart immediately.
"And speaking of twins, they're another pair. I like twins the most..."
Back in the X-Men World, he had many happy memories with those twin reporters, but after all these years, the twins had each found a good man and gotten married.
Although they said it wouldn't affect their relationship with Fang Yuan, he wasn't some kind of Cao Zei and took the initiative to cut ties.
Fang Yuan took Isabel to the outskirts of Los Angeles and entered a desolate, dilapidated little church.
Even a small church is still a church; it wouldn't stop him from "calling" God here.
Logically, one shouldn't need a church to pray to God, but out of respect, Fang Yuan came to a more formal place.
"You can start praying now," Fang Yuan said to Isabel.
He wouldn't pray himself, but Isabel was a devout believer, so God should surely show her some favor.
Not to mention that what she was praying about was closely related to Heaven and Hell.
Fang Yuan wanted Isabel to communicate with God so he could take the opportunity to make contact, commonly known as "paying respects to the boss."
Otherwise, if he went to deal with Gabriel and an elder showed up after he beat the youngster, he wouldn't be able to handle it.
It would be like Xiao Yan beating a Dou Zun from the Soul Hall, only for the Soul Heaven Emperor to jump out immediately.
By the time Fang Yuan escaped to level up and returned, who knows how long it would take.
However, Fang Yuan couldn't be entirely sure if God would turn His gaze toward Isabel. After all, it was normal for God not to respond to prayers; He only needed to drop the occasional ambiguous "miracle," and the believers would comfort themselves.
Heh, looking at it this way, it really was a bit like the relationship between a goddess and her simp.
Cough, cough... Fang Yuan quickly stopped that train of thought; it was a bit dangerous.
He equipped the [Bruce Template]. They say Batman is DC's chosen one, and it was Bruce who sensed the events here last time, so maybe he could use it to detect something.
However, Fang Yuan sensed for quite a while, and even as Isabel's prayer was nearly finished, he hadn't noticed anything unusual.
So Fang Yuan pulled out a coin and said softly, "I'll just act according to my own ideas. If the head faces up, it means you've given your tacit consent."
With that, Fang Yuan flipped the coin into the air, watching it reach its peak and begin to fall.
Suddenly, everything around him seemed to slow down until even Isabel's prayer was cut off. Fang Yuan actually found himself in a scene of frozen time.
But he hadn't used his panel to enter this state, so it was obvious who had pulled him in.
Yet, there were still no prompts, no hand appearing, and no short, stout middle-aged man in a suit suddenly popping up.
A flash of realization crossed Fang Yuan's mind: "Alright, I'll report in first."
"Let me be an Angel, and I'll teach that rebellious child Gabriel a lesson for you!" he spoke first.
Seeing no response, he said again, "Then do you want me to kill Constantine and let Satan come out to deal with Mammon and Gabriel?"
"Satan saving the human world? That wouldn't sound very good!"
At that moment, the coin suddenly flipped, with the patterned side facing Fang Yuan, full of threatening intent.
Fang Yuan shook his head and had to retract the idea of becoming an Angel.
This God deserved to be just a projection; He really didn't know a good deal when He saw one.
"I can help you stop the disobedient child, but if I can't win, you have to help me." He said he was reporting in, but it was more like negotiating terms. "If Gabriel loses her powers, she's mine. I guarantee I'll educate her well for you."
No movement at all.
"Alright, alright."
Fang Yuan had to take another step back.
"Besides that, I won't drag other church personnel into this, and I won't start any live streams, okay?"
Time around him suddenly resumed, and the coin continued to fall.
Fang Yuan suddenly thought of something and blurted out, "By the way, Isabel and Angela belong to me!"
The fish were already in his hands; he couldn't just not eat them, could he?
Ding-ling-ling!
The coin hit the ground, rolled a few times, and finally landed heads-up.
"What did you say? What do you mean my sister and I belong to you?" Isabel asked in confusion, having heard Fang Yuan's shout.
Fang Yuan picked up the coin and waved it at Isabel, chuckling. "Exactly what it sounds like. God has assigned you two sisters to me!"
Isabel naturally found it absurd, her face full of disbelief.
But Fang Yuan was full of confidence now. He pointed to the large red cross hanging in the center of the church.
"Would I talk nonsense in front of God?" Fang Yuan said loudly. "God knows I'm a reliable person, otherwise He wouldn't have used a psychic vision to tell you to find me!"
Isabel thought about it carefully. Although it was incredibly hard to believe, it seemed to make sense.
"O... Okay!" She nodded.
As a believer, Isabel resolutely followed the Lord's will.
Fang Yuan was quite satisfied. God was indeed God; He was quite sensible.
What? Buying and selling believers?
This certainly didn't count, and Fang Yuan felt no psychological pressure at all.
If we're really going to talk about it, let God deal with the matter of the priest and the little boy first.
It could only be said that both parties in the negotiation just now were not exactly pure.
He pulled Isabel and walked straight out of the church.
"Do you know where your sister Angela lives?" Fang Yuan asked.
"Not... very clearly." Isabel had almost no normal social life. She usually lived with her parents, and it was always her sister who came to see her. Her family didn't trust her to go find her sister at all.
Fang Yuan turned his head and looked into her eyes. "Use your psychic abilities."
A flash of realization crossed Isabel's mind, and she closed her eyes. Both she and Angela had psychic abilities and were twins; before long, she sensed the location.
"Let's go!"
"If the demons can't find you, they'll definitely go after Angela as a replacement!" Fang Yuan reminded her.
Isabel panicked immediately. Although she had been locked in a Mental Hospital, her relationship with her sister was very good.
However, what Fang Yuan was thinking at this moment was—
If I don't get Angela under control, how can I bait Gabriel and draw Constantine into the game?
