Clark directly covered his mouth, unable to hide his shocked expression, and Lex showed a trace of disgust, obviously disgusted with the rotten smell emanating from the mixture of blood and hair in front of him.
The Bat Cat's fur exploded, its fangs bared, and a low growl erupted from its throat. Pikachu's short fur exploded, and he was obviously very frightened.
Among the cats in the cage, the ones in better condition are lying weakly on the ground, skinny, with dull eyes, and the ones in bad condition are not easy to describe. In fact, the ones closest to the owl statues have become some unknown mixture. Even the shape of a cat is no longer visible.
It is not difficult to tell from the torches stuck around it and the still-glowing energy channels that this is actually a magic circle with a certain function, and it can be seen from the style that it is definitely not used for good things.
Batcat took several deep breaths and felt his trembling. Clark held him in his arms and stroked the hair on his back, but Batcat didn't stay for long. He jumped out of Clark's arms. Coming to the ground, I gently smelled the scent of my companions.
Lex also stepped forward. He squatted next to the cage of a living cat and observed it. He found that the cat's hind legs were branded with a pattern, which was a bit like an owl's eyes and forehead.
Neither these two people nor the two animals can use magic. Therefore, without spiritual vision, they can only judge that this is an evil magic circle, but they cannot see what it is used for.
Although they couldn't see it intuitively with the naked eye, they could infer that after Clark was stimulated by such a scene, the sense of crisis that made his hair stand on end stimulated his super brain, and he said: " I remember...I remember, in Gotham, the cat city, there were some owls disguised as cats, do you remember? Batcat?"
The bat cat nodded. He climbed up the stack of cages that reached the ceiling. Standing at the highest point and looking down, he let out a sharp cry. All the cats turned to look at him, but among them, Most of the body has no strength, and even shaking the head is difficult.
Obviously, the people who caught them here did not keep them as pets. Many of the cats were starved to the point of being so thin, but they had other kinds of energy that maintained the activity of their souls and kept them from dying. As for immediate death.
Those dead cats should have been sacrificed to the owl statue in the center.
Most of the cats in the inner circle have been brutally murdered, and most of the cats in the outer circle are still alive. The farther out, the better. Some even look like they have just been caught. Clark even found a ragdoll on the neck of a ragdoll cat. Found the collar on.
He tore open the cage and took out the ragdoll cat. The cat was obviously frightened and kept struggling even in Clark's arms. Clark kept stroking it to make it quieter, and then Look at the name tag around its neck.
"Building 3, Floona Street... This cat's name is Nana, she is one and a half years old... Oh my god, they are all domestic cats, this group... this group..."
Clark, who had never scolded anyone before, now regretted that he had not learned a few more curse words. His anger was held in his chest and could not be released. He could only brew into a more powerful force, waiting for these inhumane people to curse. After the guy shows up, let them learn a profound lesson.
The Batcat stood silently at the top of the cage. After a while, he said: "If, as you said, the world I was in before was in a dream, then maybe this is how they invaded the dream."
"They used an evil magic circle to sacrifice the lives of cats in reality, and then used it to invade the Dream of a Thousand Cats." Lex continued. He walked a little deeper, observed the state of the cats in the middle, and then said: "They should let these cats sleep first, wait until their dreams are connected to the Dream of Thousand Cats, and then pollute them with that dark energy."
"In this way, the dark energy can invade into the Dream of a Thousand Cats, and then form the dark owl you saw in Gotham, the cat city, and this..." Lex looked up at the huge owl statue , and then said: "This is what they use to store dark energy. It connects these cats and continuously sends this energy into dreams."
Batcat took two steps back, jumped down from a high place, and then said in a somewhat urgent tone: "We must cut off the transmission of this energy. Once the Thousand Cats Dream is completely contaminated, it will be terrible."
"Let's go find Professor Schiller." Lex turned and walked back. He said, "Otherwise we won't be able to solve the problem of magic."
"No. At least we should destroy the statue first and then rescue the cat." Clark disagreed. He felt that the living cat should be moved out first.
Unexpectedly, the Bat Cat jumped on his shoulder, then stopped him and said: "Now, these cats have weird symbols on their bodies. They should have been marked. No one knows what will happen to them after the statues are destroyed." Death won’t happen immediately, so it’s best to call in professionals.”
The two people, a cat and a mouse came out from the underground of the sawmill. They returned to Luther Manor first. The moment they returned to Luther Manor, the phone rang. Pikachu rushed out first and took the phone. Get up, and sure enough, there is Schiller's voice on the other side, he said:
"We have teleported to the outskirts of the metropolis. Come pick us up and get ready to work."
Pikachu conveyed Schiller's meaning. Clark and Lex looked at each other. When the two got into the car, Clark looked at Lex and asked, "Do you have a plan?"
"The professor has a plan."
When they arrived at the outskirts, Schiller, Constantine and Hal were already waiting there. Following them was a helicopter filled with supplies. Judging from its appearance and color, it was a Bat helicopter.
Ten minutes later, Clark landed with the Bat Helicopter in hand. Lex, who stepped off the helicopter, turned back to Schiller and said, "I said he was transformed from Bruce's helicopter engine..."
Schiller walked over, patted Clark on the shoulder and said, "Is this here? Come on, move the things down."
"Wait a minute! Professor! Don't go in yet, there's a bit... um..." Clark hesitated, not knowing how to describe it, but the rest of the people felt that he was worrying in vain. Look at Schiller's resume You know, what kind of big scene has he never seen?
Two minutes later, Schiller stood next to the only magic circle and said: "I have never seen this scene before. I dare to slaughter animals like this in this world..."
Schiller shook his head and looked at the owl sculpture as if he were looking at a corpse. Constantine walked over and clicked his tongue at the tragic scene in front of him.
To be honest, if this was a person lying on the ground, these two people might not be so emotional, but it was indeed the first time for the two of them to see so many cats die.
As Clark moved in several crates from the helicopter, Hal and Clark cooperated to unpack the boxes. Constantine took the utensils and began to prepare.
After the magic circle was set up and the spirit world vision was opened, everyone could see countless black owls flying around the huge owl sculpture.
What's a little strange is that there are actually a few black cats squatting on the shoulders of the owl. Although they look like cats, their behavioral logic is more like birds. At a glance, you can tell that they are owls in disguise.
They seemed to be trying to learn the behavior of cats, and one of them, which looked more like a fake cat, jumped down in three steps and merged into the body of a cat that was not dead yet.
The cat suddenly fell asleep. The bat cat walked over and took a look. Schiller waved to him. When the bat cat came to Schiller's side, Schiller knelt down, took out a bottle of wine, and put the bottle After giving it to him to smell, Batcat also lay down.
"This part of the dark owl energy in Metropolis should be specially used to invade dreams, so our previous method of extracting energy using nursery rhymes did not work."
"However, we can use the battle in the dream to force the sculpture to invest more power, and then we can intercept this part of the energy with a magic circle and store it."
"Okay, let's start assigning work now. Constantine and Hal will stay in the real world to deal with the aftermath. Just as we planned before, we will restore everything here to its original state and wait for them to come back. Pikachu will be on guard."
"Me, Clark and Batcat entered the dream world, went to the cat city of Gotham, provoked the owls there, and seduced the sculptures into investing more energy. Clark was responsible for guarding the dream world."
"Okay, get ready to start."
With that said, Schiller and Clark left the room. After they were a little far away, Schiller took out the bottle of wine again, and the two entered Schiller's mind palace.
Schiller stood next to the big pit in the center of the Hall of Thought. He sighed and pointed upward. Clark looked up, but saw nothing. He looked down at Schiller again and asked: "...What? There is something up there. What?"
"There's nothing up there."
"……so what?"
"Then do you know why there's nothing up there?"
Clark shook his head. He didn't understand why Schiller asked, so he looked up again, intending to take a closer look at it. At this moment, Schiller silently walked behind him, then took out the umbrella and grabbed it. body.
When Clark lowered his gaze again, he found that Schiller was missing. As soon as he turned around, what appeared in his field of vision was the enlarged umbrella handle.
With a "bang", the unsuspecting Clark was driven into the big hole. Then, two figures jumped into the hole together. The figure behind him had green hair.
When the two came to Cat City, Clark was still touching his chin and glanced at Schiller with a very aggrieved look. He had no memory of what he had done, but Schiller didn't look at him at all. After entering, he directly found the bat. cat.
After the fake Batcat was killed, the real Batcat took back Batcat Manor, then took over the fake Batcat, made the fake come true, and completely took over the city.
The real Batcat is much smarter. The first thing he did when he took office was to find the owl hiding in the city.
This group of owls wasn't hiding secretly at all. If it weren't for the fake batcats cooperating with them, they wouldn't have been able to hide for so long.
Their behavior patterns are completely different from cats, and they always smell like bird droppings. It didn't take long for the real bat cats to come up with an identification machine, scan the people in the whole city, and then lock on all the owls.
It was the first time for Marvel Schiller to come to this kind of cat city. He turned into a white cat, Clark was still an orange cat, and this time there was a green cat who came with them, just like the previous Bat Cat disguised as The clown cat is exactly the same.
An hour later, in the Gotham Theater in Cat City, several ropes were lowered from the ceiling. Owls were hung one after another at the bottom of the ropes. A green cat jumped onto the stage with a sharp cry. Laughing loudly:
"Ladies! Gentlemen! I have a plan, it's called - bad luck for the owl!! Hahahahahahahahaha!!!"
