Demons know a lot of magic, which is evil and terrible, but they rarely use it on Earth. There is no way, this thing will cause too much noise.
Demons come to Earth for souls, so they must be extremely careful. They can come in a big wave, such as slaughtering a city at the fastest speed and plundering the souls of the entire city.
Killing someone and taking their soul is easy, but transporting the soul away is difficult!
The process of a demon coming to Earth is very complicated. It is not the real body coming, but more like an incarnation. However, the incarnation is closely related to the original body. If the incarnation is killed on Earth, the original body will also be affected. Generally speaking, if it is in other places in the material universe, the cost of killing the incarnation is not too great. At most, the demon will be weakened, such as the power will be reduced by one or two levels. Although it is uncomfortable, it is not fatal.
But because the Earth has a great guardian, the investment in coming down is greater, at least 50% to 60% is needed, and if luck is bad, 70% to 80% is not impossible. Therefore, if the incarnation on Earth is killed, the loss will be very great.
Oh, by the way, I need to explain this.
Why did we keep using the method of expelling demons? If it is expulsion, it means that the incarnation will not be lost. If that is the case, then why do the demons care?
This is all thanks to the Great Guardian. Demons are different from other monsters, such as Wendigos or shapeshifters. They are life on Earth and have existed before humans were born. Therefore, the Great Guardian will not have any reaction to them. In fact, wizards rarely cause trouble for these monsters. After all, humans actually have ways to deal with them.
Demons are different, they are old rivals, so the Great Guardian gives very high priority to demons. Once they appear, they will be marked by the Great Guardian and actively destroyed!
Yes, the Great Guardian will actively kill the demons.
But unfortunately, there is no perfect thing in the world, and the Great Guardian naturally cannot be perfect. The demons are very good at finding loopholes, and then they really found a loophole. They discovered that as long as they possessed the life on Earth, the Great Guardian would not easily find them, at least not before using spells that exceeded a certain limit. So the first thing the demons did when they came to Earth was to find a creature to possess!
Humans are, of course, the best candidates.
But once they are driven out of humans, or the possessed humans die, then it's over. The demons can only leave the possessed body, and then they will be immediately discovered and wiped out by the great guardian.
But the demon hunters don’t know this. They found that many demons might come back after a while after they were driven away.
So they drove the demon away and called it expulsion.
This is also the origin of exorcism... Otherwise, why do you think the demons have to be tortured before they leave the body after being captured? It's not because they have any fetishes, but because they can't bear to leave!
Once they leave the possessed object, they will die immediately!
Therefore, the demons have been using some small magic on Earth and dare not use any powerful spells. The most powerful spell is to resurrect the dead.
Moreover, there are certain requirements for resurrecting the dead, such as the body of the resurrected person must be basically intact and the soul must not have had time to disappear, otherwise the devil will be powerless.
In fact, this kind of magic is not exaggerated, and the medical skills on Earth can also do it.
The modern medical standard for determining death is the cessation of the body's life activities and metabolism. Currently, the death standards are divided into two types: cardiac death and brain death. Cardiac death is the complete cessation of a person's blood circulation, pulse, and breathing. This is the universally recognized standard of death for humans and is also the easiest form to observe and determine.
Generally speaking, in the hospital, after a patient's heart and breathing stop, they will be given cardiopulmonary resuscitation for about ten to fifteen minutes. If the patient's spontaneous heartbeat and breathing cannot be restored, death can basically be confirmed.
Of course there are extreme examples!
Under normal circumstances, our brain will not get enough oxygen and then die after about four minutes of heartbeat stopping. But in 2018, a miracle that set a global record appeared in Taiwan. A 75-year-old man had a heart attack while participating in an event. His heartbeat stopped suddenly and he stopped breathing on the spot. The situation was very urgent, especially since he was a 75-year-old man! Many people felt that the situation was really too serious and it was very likely that he would never be able to return! But when the paramedics arrived, they did not give up on him. On the way to the hospital, they desperately gave him first aid measures, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation, cardiac injections, electric shocks, etc. There was also an automatic cardiopulmonary resuscitation machine to continue to rescue him along the way. Later, when he arrived at the hospital, a series of rescue operations were carried out. The 75-year-old man was rescued after his heartbeat stopped for "60 minutes"! This set the longest record of cardiac arrest and rescue!
Before this, the longest record of cardiac arrest and rescue in the world was 47 minutes. However, this 75-year-old man broke the record directly. This is really a miracle among miracles! According to medical staff, the probability of being rescued in this way is one in ! The doctor said that if CPR or other rescue was not performed along the way, the probability of this old man dying can be said to be %! So cardiac arrest is a very, very dangerous thing! However! This is not the world's record for the longest time of cardiac arrest and then rescue!
In November 2019, a British woman went to Spain to climb a mountain. November is a cold season. Unfortunately, they encountered a snowstorm while climbing the mountain. Because the British woman did not take too many protective measures, she gradually became hypothermic, and finally lost consciousness, and even her heart stopped beating! Her husband was also beside her at the time of the incident. They went to climb the mountain together. The husband said: At the moment, he could no longer feel his wife's pulse, and her body was getting colder and colder! What made him even more desperate was that it was more than two hours later that the paramedics arrived here! When the paramedics arrived, they measured the body temperature of "Audrey" (the name of the British woman). Her body temperature had dropped to 11 degrees, and it was basically declared that she was gone! She no longer had any signs of life, not to mention that more than two hours had passed, but the paramedics still sent her to the hospital (because usually hypothermia caused the body's functions to almost stop, and there is a chance to save her).
So after she was sent to the hospital, the hospital staff did not give up on her. They used special instruments to draw blood from Audrey's body, then re-injected oxygen and pumped it back into her body. They also tried to restore Audrey's body temperature. When her temperature returned to around 30 degrees, it was six hours after her heart stopped beating! Incredibly, the doctor tapped Audrey's heart and she suddenly started beating! A miracle happened!
So modern medicine can bring the dead back to life, although there are great limitations. Generally speaking, brain death is considered complete death! Basically, there is no life.
But this is not a big deal for magic, it just needs a little repair.
So resurrection is not as difficult as imagined.
The price that the devil pays for a soul in modern society is actually not high.
Unfortunately, the devil is not satisfied with this.
But reality forced them to endure, but now they don't have to.
The moment the Great Guardian began to fluctuate, Mephisto, the lord of the demon dimension, felt it first, and a large number of demons were sent to the earth... In fact, Mephisto didn't know what was happening on the earth, but so what?
Even if something really happened, it would be his subordinates who died. It had nothing to do with Mephisto. He would not feel sorry for his subordinates.
He will take a commission anyway, and it will be very cruel, but there is no other way, the entire demon dimension belongs to him, no one can resist him, after all, the demon dimension is him, he is the demon dimension, the two are one and the same.
It's enough to get the benefits.
Now the demons can use their powers!
So all kinds of messy things in the world came out to harm people. Of course, the demons themselves are not stupid. They can still feel the great protection. Although they don’t know what’s wrong with that thing, they are still relatively restrained. Otherwise, the earth would definitely have become a hell on earth.
This is also the reason why Azazel used that magical curse to cause trouble for the Wen brothers.
Otherwise he would never be so bold.
But now, he suddenly felt an indescribable sense of crisis, and then his strength was being drained by something unknown!
It was as if his master Mephisto was punishing him.
Mephisto is the undisputed master of the demon dimension. He can easily decide the promotion or extinction of a demon. He can infuse power into a demon and allow it to evolve and grow rapidly, or he can directly extract the power of that demon and let it gradually degenerate until it dies.
Now Azazel felt like Mephisto was draining his power.
But why?
He didn't offend Mephisto, and this is fucking Earth!
No reason!
Then the Wen brothers saw their enemy Azazel standing there stupidly, motionless, with a ferocious expression on his face. He didn’t look like a fierce or revengeful expression, but rather like... fear and resentment?
why?
They were all beaten half to death and were about to die. What was this guy doing?
Then Dean winked at Sam. The two brothers were only separated for two years in their lives, when Sam didn't want to wander around hunting demons and wanted to go to college and live a normal life. The rest of the time, the two were always together, and their tacit understanding could be said to be better than that of twins.
Dean gathered all his strength and rushed towards Azazel, while Sam rushed towards the knocked-down demon hunting rifle.
After Azazel was hugged by Dean, he immediately struggled.
But Dean found that this guy had very little strength, just like an ordinary person. He didn't look like a demon at all.
Of course, Dean wasn’t in his normal state anymore, so he was thrown away.
But Sam had already found the demon hunting rifle and loaded it with bullets.
The moment Dean was thrown away, Sam shot!
"MEPHISTO!!!!"
Azazel was shot, but he did not respond to the two brothers. Instead, he shouted a strange name!
When Mephisto was on Earth, he seldom used his code name. He preferred to play tricks, such as Satan, Lucifer, the Serpent, etc.
So most people don’t really know who Mephisto is, at least the Wen brothers don’t know.
Well...it can't be said that I don't know anything at all, at least Sam knows a little.
"Mephisto" is the abbreviation of "Mephistopheies", which first appeared in folk tales about Faust. According to scholars, it may have two sources. One is that it comes from ancient Hebrew, and its original meaning is "destroyer" and "liar"; the other is that it comes from Greek, and its meaning is "people who do not love light" and "people who do not love Faust."
Goethe's long poetic drama "Faust" is based on German folk tales in the 16th century. It is based on two gambling games (the gambling game between God and the devil Mephisto, and the gambling game between the devil Mephisto and Faust) and five tragedies (the tragedy of knowledge, the tragedy of love, the tragedy of politics, the tragedy of beauty and the tragedy of career experienced by Faust). Mephisto, as the villain in "Faust", is cynical and tempting to fall, but he is calm, profound, harmonious and witty. He is a typical image of a nihilist. When introducing himself, Mephisto said: "I am the spirit of eternal negation! As long as everything is generated, it will naturally be destroyed, so it is better for nothing to happen. You call this destruction and crime, and to put it simply, it is called evil. This is the attribute of my essence."
But this is a literary creation. At least no witcher would use "Faust" as witch hunting material.
And then Azazel died!
It was a very hasty death...at least that's what the two brothers and Bob thought. Is this a joke?
But what they didn't know was that at this time, Mephisto in Azazel's mouth was also cursing!
"What happened to my power?!!!"
Mephisto encountered the same situation as Azazel, and his power was also being drained!
The sleeper Morpheus next to him looked even paler.
Apparently he does too.
For a moment Mephisto thought that his "cousin" had betrayed him (Mephisto is the Sandman, and his name shares only three letters with Mephisto, so he is jokingly called cousin here), but he could sense that the power of the Sandman was also weakening, and he suddenly became horrified.
Their status is very high, and theoretically no one can draw away their power, but now, this situation is indeed happening.
"Run!!!"
This was Mephisto's first reaction.
But the sleep demon was calm: "It's too late. We can't escape."
Mephisto also stopped resisting because he knew that Morpheus was right. After all, this was the situation. The one who could do this could not be an ordinary person, but a higher-level existence that they could not understand and perceive. In this case, escaping was undoubtedly a pipe dream.
"Look at it more positively. At least... we are all incarnations, right? We can't die."
The Sandman was very calm. An incarnation really made his situation worse, but the problem was that his enemy also appeared on Earth at this time. He believed that this situation was not just aimed at him. So it didn't matter.
No one made any money, so by comparison, no one lost money... no, it should be said that he made money.
He asked Mephisto for help, and Mephisto put in a lot of effort, so the Avatar invested a lot of power, and his sisters, who were also his enemies, Desire and Despair, invested even more power to find him and defeat him. In this way, he lost less, but others lost more!
