After hearing what Ashes said, Bruce nodded slightly. After pondering for a moment, he nodded slightly and said, "So... the Lord of Darkness caught us and tied us to that statue... it's definitely not simple.

.They definitely did not do this kind of thing to show off their merits."

Deathstroke on the side frowned slightly, looked at Bruce and asked seriously, "What's the reason?"

"This conclusion can be drawn from their previous actions, existing intelligence analysis... and analysis of their personality traits..."

Having said this, Bruce raised his head, looked at Diana and Deathstroke and asked seriously, "I wonder if you have discovered that those people...the men of the Dark Lord have a pattern of action when they are wreaking havoc on the world.

That is to create panic and chaos, but never massacre, even for those who are very murderous, they will only carry out a small amount of killing in order to cause destruction and terror..."

Having said this, Bruce lowered his head and pointed to the companions who had been slapped before, then pointed to himself and said, "And... they didn't kill us. This is the strangest thing... They are no longer superheroes.

There is no resistance to killing people, I can see it, but the question is, why none of us died. This can only prove one thing, we are of use value to them... And I think, specifically, it becomes

There is definitely something fishy about that statue now...that statue!"

Having said this, Bruce turned his head and asked Ashes softly, "What do you think?"

Not sure whether he really wanted to ask his opinion or asked him symbolically, Hui Jing coughed slightly, and then said with an incomprehensible expression, "I also have this guess..."

Clara, who was standing behind Hui Jin, looked at Hui Jin's somewhat stiff body and couldn't help but sigh softly and said, "Actually, no..."

Turning his head suddenly, Hui Jin yelled at Clara, "Who said there isn't? There is! In fact, I have already discovered that there is something wrong with that statue! But in order to save people before, I didn't observe too much, so I couldn't make a judgment.

That’s all!”

Slightly shrugging her shoulders, Clara said helplessly, "If you say so, then that's it~ But... you said there is a problem, so what is the problem?"

Ashes coughed lightly, then pointed at the people still lying on the ground, and pointed at Bruce Wayne, who had already woken up, and said, "Their souls... I discovered it after we left the influence of the statue.

These people who have not yet woken up, and Bruce who has already woken up, their souls are still connected to the statue, and the statue is attached to their souls, and they don’t know what it is doing, but it just keeps torturing them.

Soul, let them feel pain and...darkness?!"

Having said this, Ashes suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and quickly rushed to Bruce, and suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it on his forehead!

Subconsciously, he wanted to resist, but after all, Bruce was only a mortal body and could not stop Ashes' palm. He could only watch helplessly as his hand grabbed at her!

"Don't move, I don't want to hurt you, I want to confirm something!"

Hearing Ashes' extremely serious tone, Bruce stopped resisting and stood there straight, staring straight into Ashes' eyes under his mask...

After a moment, Hui Jin let go of his hand, then lowered his head and grabbed his hand towards one of the people who was still unconscious.

After a while, Hui Jin let go of his hand and slowly stood up, while backing away, he muttered softly, "It's...really not? But...this is impossible! Why does this happen? I was whipped.

Gone? Or..."

Looking at the somewhat tangled Ashes, Bruce frowned slightly and asked with a serious face, "Please explain directly!"

Ashes, who retreated to Clara, stood still, then raised his head and looked at Bruce Wayne in front of him, took a deep breath and said, "The statue of the Lord of Darkness is absorbing your souls..."

"What? You...what did you say? Absorb souls? Will they become empty shells if they are allowed to be absorbed like this? What can we do, Mr. Ashes!"

Looking at the anxious Barry Allen, Ashes raised his hand and waved it gently and said, "Don't worry, the matter is not that urgent yet. Although it is said to be absorbing souls, in fact their souls are hardly affected."

Hearing these words, Clara on the side became a little confused. She raised her head and looked at Ashes and asked doubtfully, "Little Ashes... what do you mean by this? Why is the absorbed soul not affected at all? This

Shouldn’t they be contradictory? Could it be that the Lord of Darkness is turning them into living zombies? And they are still powerful living zombies?”

People who lose their souls will eventually become living corpses. If they are filled with other souls, they will become powerful living corpses... No wonder Clara has such doubts.

But that's not right. Ashes shook his head gently, looked at Clara with a serious face and said, "Things are not that simple... The King of Darkness does not need the soul of a living corpse, he needs the soul of darkness!"

Hearing this, Clara turned her head and looked at the few people who were still lying on the ground in a coma, frowned and whispered, "Dark soul... Is this the reason why he tortures these people? It's really disgusting.

s method!"

Looking at Clara who looked angry, Diana asked with some confusion, "This...ma'am, can you please explain?"

Clara took a deep breath, then looked at the few people present and said seriously, "That's right... You may have never been exposed to these before, so I will explain it to you briefly... The existence of the soul, everyone has

It’s different. What each person’s soul is depends largely on what his owner is like...it depends on the owner’s consciousness and mental state..."

Bruce frowned, stared at Clara and asked, "So...the Lord of Darkness, by torturing those he kidnapped, wants to turn our souls into what you call...dark souls? And then absorb them."

To strengthen your soul?"

"That's probably the case."

"That's not the case!" As soon as Clara finished speaking, Ashes beside her suddenly denied this statement~

Under everyone's surprised gaze, Ashes raised his hand, pointed at Bruce and said seriously, "Your soul has not been affected in any way, and the souls of your companions have not been affected in any way. Your souls are still the same."

It’s your soul that has not been transformed into a dark soul!”

Having said this, Ashes came to Bruce's side again, mentioned a guy wearing a green tights, pointed at his head and said, "His soul is still very complete and belongs to his own soul. This point

I am very sure, but the problem is... I can feel that the dark soul, the dark soul that belongs to him, flows to that statue through his soul..."

Bruce didn't speak, just stared at the ashes without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking...

Ashes, who thought Bruce didn't understand, couldn't help but sigh softly, and then continued to explain, "To put it simply, it seems that there are inexplicable dark souls that come out of nowhere and flow to the statue through their souls. That is

Their souls are also dark souls, but..."

Having said this, Ashes scratched his head gently and continued incomprehensibly, "But it shouldn't exist... Their souls have not decreased, but the dark souls are constantly increasing and then being taken away... This is

It shouldn’t be! How did the King of Darkness do it? He could actually make the soul so... come out of nothing..."

Looking at Ashes who was a little confused and a little horrified, Bruce Wayne nodded lightly, suddenly tilted his head and asked, "In other words, those of us who were rescued, and those who were tied to the statues

Human beings are inexhaustible batteries for the King of Darkness, providing him with a steady stream of power called dark souls, is that what it means?"

Hui Jin opened his mouth gently, and suddenly felt that this metaphor seemed very spiritual. He nodded involuntarily and said, "That's pretty much what it means, but this shouldn't happen. This should be impossible.

This is the basic principle of the soul. If you want to strengthen your own soul, you need to exercise it yourself, or plunder other people's souls... You can't make something out of nothing like this."

"I understand. Although I don't know how the Lord of Darkness did it, he turned us and this world into his battery factory, constantly producing power for him. This is probably what he means..."

Looking at Ashes who was still a little tangled, Bruce sighed softly, stretched out his hand and patted Ashes' shoulders gently and said, "There will be no results in trying to get into trouble. If you want to know the truth, you need to see it with your own eyes."

That's it, and...how he did it is not important now. What is important is how we can stop him...or do you want to know how he did it and then replace it?"

"What? No, no, of course not! Why do you think so? Although I am not a good person, I am not so crazy!" Hui Jin shook his head repeatedly, then coughed slightly, straightened his emotions and said, "

As for how to stop him, just destroy the statue... If this is the case now, maybe destroying the statue directly can wake them up..."

"I understand, then...the next action plan is to destroy the statue and try to find the whereabouts of the soul and the fireproof girl you need. Even if you can't find it, try to collect as much information as possible. Is this acceptable?

"

Hui Jin tilted his head, as if there was no other good solution now except this~

After pondering for a moment, Ashes nodded lightly and said, "I know, let's do this for now! In that case, let's set off! Spending time here is not an option!"

Looking at Ashes who turned around, and then at Bruce who was still expressionless, Diana suddenly seemed to understand something. She came close to Bruce and lowered her voice and asked softly, "Bruce, are you using this method to deal with Superman?"

How to deal with him?"
