Chapter 615

Clark covered his mouth directly, unable to hide his shocked expression. Lex revealed a trace of disgust, obviously very repulsed by the rotting smell emitted by the mixture of blood and fur in front of him.

The Bat-cat's fur exploded directly, baring his sharp teeth, a low growl emitted from his throat. Pikachu's short fur also exploded, obviously also scared quite a bit.

Those cats in the cages, the ones in better condition were weakly lying on the ground, skinny as a rail, eyes dull; the ones in worse condition weren't very easy to describe. Even, those closest to the owl statue had already become some unknown mixture, and even the form of a cat couldn't be seen.

From the torches stuck around and the energy channels that were still glowing, it wasn't hard to see that this was actually a magic array with some kind of function, and from this style, it could be seen that this absolutely wasn't used for doing good things.

The Bat-cat took several deep breaths. Feeling his trembling, Clark held him in his arms, stroking the fur on his back, but the Bat-cat didn't stay for too long. He jumped out of Clark's arms directly, came to the ground, and gently sniffed the scent of those companions.

Lex also walked up. He squatted next to the cage of a living cat and observed for a moment. He discovered that a pattern had been branded on the hind leg of this cat, a bit like an owl's eye plus a forehead.

These two people and two animals wouldn't use magic, therefore, without spirit world vision, they could only judge that this was an evil magic array, but couldn't see what it was specifically used for.

Although they couldn't see it intuitively with the naked eye, they could infer it. After Clark was stimulated by such a scene, that sense of crisis that made his hair stand on end instead stimulated his super brain. He opened his mouth and said: "I remember... I remember, in the cat city Cat Getan, there were some owls disguised as cats. Do you remember? Bat-cat?"

The Bat-cat nodded. He climbed up along the cages stacked to the ceiling, stood at the highest point, and looked down. He emitted a sharp cry, and all the cats turned their heads to look at him, but the vast majority of them no longer had the strength, and even shaking their heads was very strenuous.

Very obviously, the person who caught them here wasn't raising them as pets. Many of the cats were starved to be this thin, but there was a kind of other energy maintaining the activity of their souls, so they wouldn't die immediately.

And those cats that had already died should have been sacrificed to that owl statue in the very center.

The cats in the inner circle had basically already met with misfortune; the cats in the outer circle were mostly still alive, and the further out they were, the better their condition. There were even some that looked like they had just been caught. Clark even found a collar on the neck of a Ragdoll cat.

He pulled the cage open with force and hugged that Ragdoll cat out. That cat was obviously scared out of its wits, even in Clark's arms, it kept struggling. Clark kept stroking it, letting it quiet down a bit, and then looked at the name tag on its neck.

"3rd Building, Flona Street... This cat's name is Nana, one and a half years old this year... My God, they were all pet cats they caught, this group of... this group of..."

Clark, who had never scolded anyone, now incomparably regretted not learning a couple more dirty words. A fire in his chest couldn't be released, and could only be brewed into even more powerful force, just waiting for this group of inhumane guys to appear, and then give them a profound lesson.

The Bat-cat stood silently at the highest point of the cage. After a long while, he opened his mouth and said: "If as you said, the world I was in before was in a dream, then perhaps this is their method of invading the dream."

"They utilize an evil magic array, sacrificing the lives of cats in reality, and then borrow this to invade the Dream of a Thousand Cats." Lex continued, he walked in a bit, observed the condition of the cats in the middle layer, and then said: "They should be letting these cats enter the dream first, and wait until their dreams connect to the Dream of a Thousand Cats, then use that kind of dark energy to pollute them."

"This way, the dark energy can invade the Dream of a Thousand Cats, and then, it constitutes that dark owl you saw in the cat city Cat Getan before. And this..." Lex raised his head to look at that giant owl statue, and then said: "This is the thing they use to store dark energy. It connects these cats, constantly sending this kind of energy into the dream."

The Bat-cat took two steps back, jumped down from the high place, and then said with a somewhat urgent tone: "We must cut off the transmission of this energy. Once the Dream of a Thousand Cats is completely polluted, then it will be a disaster."

"We'll go find Professor Shiler." Lex turned around and walked back. He said: "Otherwise we have no way to solve the problem related to magic."

"No. At the very least, we should destroy the statue first, and then take the cats away." Clark somewhat disagreed; he felt they should transfer the living cats out first.

Who knew, the Bat-cat jumped onto his shoulder, then stopped him, and said: "Now, these cats all have strange symbols on them; they should have already been marked. No one knows if they will die immediately after the statue is destroyed. It's best to find a professional to come over."

The two people and one cat and one mouse came out from underground the sawmill. They returned to Luthor Manor first, and the moment they just returned to Luthor Manor, the phone rang. Pikachu scurried out first, picked up the phone, and sure enough, on the other side was Shiler's voice. He said:

"Controller is Here"

"We have already teleported to the outskirts of Metropolis. Come pick us up; get ready to work."

Pikachu conveyed Shiler's meaning. Clark and Lex looked at each other. When the two got into the car, Clark looked at Lex and asked: "You had a plan long ago?"

"It's the Professor who had a plan long ago."

Arriving at the outskirts, Shiler, Constantine, and Hal were already waiting there. Following them was also a helicopter full of supplies. Judging by the shape and color, it was a Bat-helicopter.

Ten minutes later, Clark, holding the Bat-helicopter, landed. Lex, who walked down from the helicopter, turned back to Shiler and said: "I just said it was the Bat-helicopter engine that Bruce turned into..."

Shiler walked over, patted Clark on the shoulder, and said: "Is this the place? Come on, move the things down."

"Wait a minute! Professor! Don't go in yet; it's a bit... um..." Clark hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to describe it, but the rest of the people felt he was worrying for nothing. Just looking at Shiler's resume, what kind of big scene hadn't he seen?

Two minutes later, Shiler stood next to that only magic array and said: "I really haven't seen this scene before, daring to slaughter animals like this in this world..."

Shiler shook his head, looking at that owl statue with the gaze of looking at a corpse. Constantine walked over, clicked his tongue at the miserable scene in front of him.

To tell the truth, if a floor full of people were lying there, these two might not be so emotional, but the situation of so many cats dying, the two of them indeed saw it for the first time.

Following Clark moving the few crates from the helicopter in, Hal and Clark cooperated to unpack the crates. Constantine took the tools and began to prepare.

By the time the magic array was set up and the spirit world vision was opened, everyone could see countless black owls flying around that giant owl statue without stopping.

And what was a bit strange was that there were actually a few black cats squatting on the owls' shoulders, but although their appearance was a cat, their behavioral logic was more like birds. One look and one knew they were owls in disguise.

They seemed to be trying hard to learn the behavioral habits of cats, and one of the fakes that looked more like a cat jumped down after two or three steps, and merged into the body of a cat that hadn't died yet.

That cat suddenly fell asleep. After the Bat-cat walked over and took a look, Shiler beckoned to him. After the Bat-cat walked to Shiler's side, Shiler squatted down, took out a bottle of wine, let him smell the cork, and the Bat-cat also lay down.

"This part of the dark owl energy in Metropolis should be specifically used for invading dreams, so the method we used before of extracting energy with nursery rhymes didn't work well."

"However, we can utilize the battle in the dream to force this statue to invest more power, and then we will intercept this portion of energy with a magic array and store it."

"Alright, start assigning work now. Constantine and Hal stay in the real world to clean up the aftermath, just according to the plan we had before, restore everything here to its original state, and wait for them to come back. Pikachu is responsible for vigilance."

"I, Clark, and the Bat-cat will enter the dream world, go to the cat city Cat Getan, provoke the owls there, and lure the statue to invest more energy. Clark is responsible for vigilance in the dream world."

"Alright, get ready to start."

Saying that, Shiler and Clark left that room. After they were a bit further away, Shiler took out that bottle of wine again, and the two entered Shiler's mind palace.

Shiler stood next to the large pit in the center of the mind palace, sighed, and pointed upward. Clark looked up, but saw nothing. He looked down at Shiler again and asked: "... What? What's above?"

"There's nothing above there."

"... So?"

"Then do you know why there's nothing above there?"

Clark shook his head; he didn't understand why Shiler asked this, so he looked up again, intending to look carefully above. Just at this moment, Shiler silently walked behind him, then took out his umbrella and grabbed the umbrella handle.

When Clark put his gaze level again, he discovered that Shiler was gone. As soon as he turned his head, what appeared in his field of vision was the enlarged umbrella handle.

With a "bang" sound, the unprepared Clark was hit into that large hole, and then, two figures jumped into this hole together, among which the figure behind had green hair.

When the two arrived at the cat city, Clark was still rubbing his chin, glaring at Shiler with great grievance. He completely didn't remember what he had done at the beginning, but Shiler didn't look at him at all. After going in, he directly found the Bat-cat.

After that fake Bat-cat was finished off, the real Bat-cat took back the Bat-cat Manor, then replaced the fake Bat-cat, pulled off a fake-turned-real, and completely took over this city.

The real Bat-cat was much smarter. The first thing he did after taking office was to find out the owls hiding in the city.

This group of owls hid not secretly at all. If it weren't for the fake Bat-cat colluding with them, they wouldn't have been able to hide for so long.

Their behavioral patterns were completely different from cats, and there was always a smell of bird droppings on them. The real Bat-cat didn't take long to come up with a machine for identification, scanned everyone in the city, and then locked onto all the owls.

Marvel Shiler was coming to this kind of cat city for the first time. He turned into a white cat, Clark was still an orange cat, and this time following them in was also a green cat, exactly the same as the Joker cat that the Bat-cat had disguised as before.

One hour later, in the Cat Getan Grand Theater of the cat city, several ropes were let down from the ceiling, with one owl after another hanging from the bottom of the ropes. A green cat jumped onto the stage, and a sharp cry sounded, accompanied by loud laughter:

"Ladies! Gentlemen! I have a plan, called—The Owls Have Bad Luck!

Hahahahahahahahaha!
