The same person...the same person? The same person! Although he had been prepared in his heart, the moment he got the answer of ashes, Deathstroke could not accept it for a moment.

After being stunned for several times, Deathstroke turned his head, looked up and down at the ashes, and then asked, "Is it the same person? So... you are the King of Darkness? Or are you also the King of Darkness?"

Ashes, who was suddenly asked by Deathstroke, couldn't help but be stunned. Then he showed a disgusted expression as if he had eaten something unclean and said, "What? No, no, no, of course not. How could I be that bastard of the King of Darkness?"

?”

After denying one after another, Hui Jin sighed softly and explained helplessly, "How to put it... This matter is more complicated. I can only say... we were the same person before, or in other words, we were the same person who was divided into two.

Soul, part of my soul was taken away by some bastards, and then I experienced some things that I don’t know what they were, and became the current King of Darkness."

Deathstroke was silent for a moment, then looked at Ashes and asked in surprise, "Does this kind of thing... exist? Souls or something... Isn't it just your imagination or something else!"

The slave's eyes under the hood suddenly rolled, and then he turned helplessly and asked Diana, who was silent not far away, "You should know the existence of the soul, right? As a demigod, you should still be able to contact it."

Did you get these things?"

Diana, who was suddenly named, responded to this topic, "Ah... things like souls do exist. The world is very big, so..."

As she was speaking, Diana suddenly showed a shocked expression, stared at Ashes who had turned his head, and asked with great horror, "Do you know my identity? Do you know that I am a demigod?"

After speaking, Diana seemed to have thought of something. She suddenly turned her head and shouted at Barry Allen on the other side, "Have you told this guy about us?"

Barry, who was startled, showed a surprised expression, then hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, I...I didn't say anything. I just told Mr. Cinder that we are the Justice League, but other than that."

I didn’t say anything other than the names of everyone, as well as your abilities and identities..."

Diana recalled the previous events and the previous conversation between Ashes and Deathstroke. Diana suddenly felt that she might have misunderstood Deathstroke before. Among this group of people, the real liar was most likely the man named

The man of Ashes, he deceived Deathstroke and Barry, and used some dirty methods to get their information from Barry.

Ashes... This doesn't sound like a name that a person should have. Is it a fake name? This guy... is so cunning! Not only did he cover his face, he also disguised his name, but how did he get it?

What about the trust between Deathstroke and Barry?

But no matter what, the man in front of you absolutely cannot be trusted. He must have some conspiracy!

This is the only explanation for Diana now! As for what he said, that he and the Lord of Darkness are the same person, Diana does not believe it from the bottom of her heart. It is impossible for such a thing to happen, such a powerful darkness.

The King of Kings was once part of the soul of the person in front of me. How could this be true... how could it be true?

Glancing at Diana, who was squinting and wondering what she was thinking, Barry turned his head again, looked at Ashes and asked doubtfully, "Mr. Ashes, how did you know that Diana is a demigod?"

Ashes glanced at Diana, whose soul was full of doubt and distrust at this moment, then lightly shrugged and said, "It's very simple~ because we have already left the scope of the statue, I can feel it

That woman’s soul, her soul is completely different from that of you mortals, but it can’t reach the level of a god, so... she should be a demigod~"

The trick of a liar ~ Diana had a strange look on her lips, disguising the information she got from unknown places as information obtained by using so-called special abilities, and then making others trust her and believe in this so-called special ability.

It's real...

It's like someone suddenly called you, told you your detailed identity information, and then said that you are a policeman. This is probably the trick...

As if aware of Diana's disdain and distrust, Ashes turned his head again, looked at Diana behind him and said lightly, "Don't you trust me? It doesn't matter, it's your own business anyway, I won't force everyone.

Everyone trusts me. Anyway, rescuing these people is what Barry and I agreed on, as a way of repaying him for bringing me the information, so I won’t break my promise."

Having said this, Hui Jin lightly shrugged and said in an extremely indifferent tone, "As for what happens next, you have the final say. I won't ask you to do anything. It doesn't matter whether you assist me or not.

It doesn’t matter. But on the other hand, I don’t need your support and approval for my actions. Do you understand what I mean? Are there any other questions?"

"I understand what you mean." Diana took a deep look at Ashes and nodded gently. Despite this, Diana still regarded Ashes as an untrustworthy liar in her heart, and Ashes' words were ignored.

Diana thought it was a roundabout strategy to gain her trust...

Hui Jin, who was walking in front, sighed helplessly, shook his shoulders slightly and said, "It's not like I don't understand anything... Forget it, just do whatever you want~"

The atmosphere fell into an awkward situation for a moment. Deathstroke took a deep look at Diana behind him, then snorted softly, then turned his head and ignored Diana.

Clara, who had been silent for a long time, also glanced at Diana and showed a strange expression...

"Hey, Diana, what are you doing? Mr. Ashes saved me and saved so many people's lives. What on earth are you doing?"

Diana glanced at Barry, who looked like he was trapped in a pyramid scheme trap, and sighed helplessly, then coughed lightly and said, "In short, don't talk too much now. Didn't he also say it? Assist him or not."

Is it okay to help him? It’s natural that I don’t trust him! After all, he is such a..."

After saying this, Diana glanced at Ashes, who was facing away from her and wearing a turban. To be honest, after thinking about it, Diana suddenly felt that Deathstroke had become a trustworthy guy.

Although this guy was an enemy before, he is also a person from this world, and he knows a lot about him. But the guy named Ashes is completely unknown, and nothing can be seen at all, whether it is his appearance or his appearance.

Weapons, or the way he fights, nothing can be seen...

…

"We're here. Our destination is ahead, one of my safe houses. Don't worry, it's safe for the time being. We can take a short rest and then make the next arrangements. No problem, Mr. Ashes..."

"Of course, I have no objection. After all, I promised Barry that I would rescue these people. The way they look now doesn't mean I have rescued them. They haven't woken up yet~"

Following the twists and turns of the death knell, we entered a so-called safe house, which can be said to be a master of pragmatism~

Various supplies, guns, ammunition, and medicines are neatly arranged in different categories. Other than that, there is nothing else. It is a very, very standard safe house for doomsday survival~

Looking at the room, Ashes couldn't help but whistle, and said slowly to Deathstroke and Barry, who were still carrying the Justice League members, "Put them all together, I want to check a little, their situation is a little unusual."

…”

While talking, Hui Jin placed the two people in his hands steadily in the corner and leaned their heads against the wall...

Deathstroke and Barry also placed the remaining three people they were carrying beside them. The five people were still unconscious and sitting quietly on the ground against the wall. The bumps along the way did not seem to wake them up at all.

.

This is not a simple coma, it will never be that simple. Ashes is very determined. Although these people... have been saved by him, their souls are still connected to the statue that does not know what it is used for at this moment.

Stretching out his hand and gently pressing one of them on the forehead, Hui Jin slowly closed his eyes and began to feel the person's soul~

Suffering...torture...pain and despair, numerous negative emotions lingered in this man's soul, entangled his entire brain, all of which were constantly circulating in his consciousness, like an endless hell, non-stop

Torture the person in front of you!

Is this the ability of that statue to make everyone bound to it feel pain? The Lord of Darkness...is this another chuunibyou?

Frowning slightly, Ashes slowly opened his eyes. Under Barry's expectant eyes, he gently shook his head and said in a low tone, "It's a bit difficult. Their souls are still connected to that statue."

, if you rashly cut off contact, it is likely to cause irreparable trauma to them..."

Hearing these words, Barry couldn't help being surprised, and then asked with a worried expression, "Then... what should we do now? How can we wake them up?"

After Hui Jin was silent for a moment, he nodded slightly and said, "If I were to do this, it wouldn't be impossible, but... it would be very rough. There are ways to wake them up. First, the simplest way.

, that is, it is up to them to break free. Although they do not know why, the statue just established a connection with them, and tortured their hearts over and over again, making them feel the painful despair, but it never destroyed them, so they
