Chapter 119: A great performance, but a bit useless
"Thank you all so much for coming, I am a stage magician."

Zatanna stood on the stage, facing the audience and spoke with a smile.

"Tonight, I will not only be a performer, but also a guide for your dreams to come true. As long as you keep a curious and open heart, miracles will happen between us."

As she spoke, she bowed slightly to everyone and took off her hat.

"Wow!"

The moment the hat was taken off, countless pigeons flew out from it.

Amid the applause of the audience, Zatanna picked up the hat and said, "Thank you very much for your applause. Next, I will conjure a rabbit out of the hat for you."

As she spoke, she sat down on a chair and put her fingers into her hat.

Clark and Azu in the audience watched Zatanna's actions intently, wanting to see clearly how she did it.

Zatanna on the stage silently said to herself, "The rabbit reveals its inner hat."

As she chanted the irony magic spell, a white rabbit quietly appeared from the hat.

Zatanna grabbed the rabbit by its ears and pulled it out of the hat.

But when she looked at the rabbit in her hand, she was stunned for a moment.

What he was holding in his hand was actually a rabbit with blood coming out of all its orifices!
The rabbit's eyes were wide open, as if it had suffered great pain before death, and blood was dripping down its hind legs onto the stage.

"Oh me.!"

Zatanna looked at the dead rabbit in her hand in shock, and was a little overwhelmed for a moment.

She didn't know what went wrong with her magic.

The audience thought it was a performance effect and they all applauded enthusiastically, with some whistles mixed in with the applause to liven up the atmosphere.

Zatanna was shocked and looked down into the hat, only to see a purple, dangerous magical energy condensing inside.

"Do not!!"

As she screamed in fear, black, sticky tentacles with tumors on the surface swarmed out of the hat.

The dense tentacles waved in all directions like a tide.

The audience thought that this was also part of the stage performance, and as they watched the grand "magic show" before their eyes, their applause became even more enthusiastic.

They dared to guarantee that they had never seen magic with such a strong visual impact.

Zatanna was brought back to her senses by the applause and cheers, and she shouted to the crowd below the stage: "This is not part of the performance, get out of here!"

Before the audience could react, a thick tentacle grabbed a male audience member and pulled him towards the stage.

"Boom" sound.

The unlucky guy who was caught fell heavily on the stage.

He groaned, and more and more tentacles instantly entangled his body.

The sudden change made the audience stunned for a few seconds.

At this moment, everyone realized that the tentacles in front of them were not a magic show.

Following a shrill scream from the crowd, everyone present immediately left their seats and fled in all directions.

The originally peaceful auditorium suddenly became chaotic.

Screams and shouts of terror continued to echo in the auditorium.

When Peter saw the tentacles dragging people onto the stage, he immediately stood up and his expression became serious.

A-Zu looked at the tentacles waving on the stage in surprise and asked Peter in disbelief, "Dad, what is that?"

Star-Lord also found it incredible, "What kind of magic is this? Not only can a rabbit appear from a hat, but it also has tentacles?"

"This thing doesn't look like an ordinary magic show."

Peter looked at the tentacles waving on the stage, emitting a strange aura.

"Godfather, I think we should help her."

Clark said anxiously, looking towards the stage.

Although he didn't know the girl on the stage, judging from the expression on the girl's face, these tentacles should be uncontrollable.

Peter glanced at the tentacles waving on the stage and said to Zu, "John, take Clark and Star-Lord away from here."

He asked Azuzu to take Clark and Star-Lord away from here.

Although Clark was somewhat reluctant, he knew that the Godfather must have his own ideas, so he finally left the auditorium with A Zu.

"My God!"

The unfortunate audience member who was entangled by the tentacles grabbed the floor tightly, and his fingers left bloody marks on the wooden stage.

"no no!"

He cried out in pain and struggled hard, but was still pulled towards the magic hat.

Zatanna stared at the horrible scene before her in shock, her heart in a mess.

"Oh my god! I. I don't know what to do!"

She was a little at a loss.

As a minor, she had never encountered such an emergency before.

Looking at the chaotic stage, she wanted to do something, but found that her head was a mess and she couldn't think of any method.

Just then, there was a loud "boom".

A ball of white energy rushed over from the audience, instantly dissolving the tentacles that were grabbing the audience.

The unlucky audience member who was rescued was thrown to the ground, and after a dull "bang" sound, he fainted immediately.

Zatanna looked down at the stage in astonishment.

Who is this man?

Peter slowly put his hand down, and when he saw the other tentacles on the stage swinging towards him, he directly used the power of the gods in his body to condense energy. "Buzz~!"

As a strange hum of energy sounded, his hands were covered by a wave of energy.

There was a "puff" sound.

After cutting off the attacking tentacles, Peter moved to the stage at lightning speed.

Zatanna looked at Peter in shock.

How could the other party cut off these tentacles filled with evil magic so effortlessly?

Without even considering the powerful mysterious figure that suddenly jumped out, Zatanna calmed down.

She pulled out a lighter and pointed it at the threatening tentacles with gritted teeth.

"Ran Ran, you bastard!"

As she chanted the irony magic, the flame from the lighter turned into a fire dragon and swept towards the tentacles.

The tentacles were instantly ignited by the fire dragon.

The air was immediately filled with the aroma of roasted meat.

The next second, something strange happened. A tentacle burning in the flames grabbed Zatanna's arm as fast as lightning.

Enduring the severe pain in her body, Zatanna covered her arm, knelt on the ground and gasped.

After an unknown amount of time, she saw a pair of leather shoes appear in front of her.

He looked up and saw the powerful mysterious man who had just dealt with the tentacles standing in front of him.

Peter's mind moved slightly, and the power of God covered by his hands disappeared into his body.

He looked down at the somewhat disheveled magical girl and shook his head in disappointment.

He was also looking forward to the other party performing the magic of pretending to cut a person in half and then piecing them back together.

"Are you ok?"

Peter asked her.

When he was announcing the show just now, he heard that the other person's name was Zatanna. Although the last name was different, he quickly connected the other person to the great magician in the DC world.

Zatanna was stunned for a moment, looked up at the tentacles that had turned to ashes, then looked at Peter who had a calm expression, and slowly stood up from the ground.

"I'm fine, thank you. Thank you."

Zatanna looked at the empty audience seats and breathed a sigh of relief.

She wanted to ask Peter how he had done it, but she thought it was too presumptuous.

"Your magic show was pretty good. You almost killed everyone in the theater."

Zatanna's face instantly turned red when she heard Peter's teasing words.

"I'm sorry, I. I don't know what happened, but it wasn't my intention."

She explained to Peter, "When I performed these magic tricks before, I mean magic tricks, there has never been a situation like today."

She suspected that someone had touched her props, and it was most likely someone close to her.

But there should be no other magicians in the entire circus, and they couldn't possibly know that he was a magician.

"Hmm, whether it's magic or magic, it's dangerous and difficult to control. It seems that your performance is not mature enough."

After Peter said a few meaningful words, he turned and left.

Zatanna watched Peter's back as he left, and couldn't help but want to ask his name.

She always felt that this mysterious and powerful man in front of her seemed to have seen through all her secrets.

But looking at the mess on the ground and the audience member who was knocked unconscious by the tentacles on the stage, she did not call Peter in the end, but covered her aching arm.

Now that she's in so much trouble, it's probably impossible for her to stay in the circus.

The most important thing now is to think about the rest of your life.

Night at Padraic Farm.

Star-Lord was not very interested because he didn't see the magic show.

"Honestly, I don't quite understand why there are tentacles coming out of the hat that attack people."

Star-Lord was puzzled and asked Peter: "Dad, how did that magician named Zatanna do it?"

"Maybe something went wrong with her magic."

Peter casually said to Star-Lord, "There are many cases of magicians failing on stage."

"but."

Star-Lord felt that what Peter said was not right, "Even if you fail so much, you can't turn into tentacles, right? Unless..."

Before he finished speaking, A Zu next to him added: "Unless she is not a magician, but a female magician, just like Teacher Katie that Dad met before."

"Although witches are unbelievable, they do exist. It's possible that she is a witch."

A-Zu was relatively calm about such things. After experiencing the "Lucifer" incident and the "Teacher Katie's witch possession incident" some time ago, he had enough ability to accept these things.

Not to mention the witch, even if God appeared before him tomorrow, he would not be too surprised.

"dad."

Star-Lord blinked and looked at Peter expectantly, "Can you make tentacles come out of your hat?"

"No, I can not."

Peter shook his head and said, "I don't think any normal magician can do that."

"Ugh!"

Star-Lord sighed and said in frustration, "I think this set is pretty cool. I want to learn it from her."
