Chapter 430: Race against time

It is precisely because Gotham and nearby cities can no longer send shadow-eating soldiers, so the number of shadow-eating soldiers sent by Afu to other cities needs to be increased accordingly.

This caused more people to fall into coma, and also allowed Tony Stark to study more cases. However, after Tony Stark's research, there were not many research results. He just found that The shadows of these people disappeared.

This made Tony Stark confused. After contact with Robert, Tony Stark's acceptance and understanding of extraordinary abilities was much higher, and he was even able to accept the existence of the spirit and soul. However, the disappearance of the shadow will cause Tony Stark still couldn't accept the fact that people were in a coma.

After all, in Tony Stark's view, shadow is just an optical phenomenon, and there is no connection between the person himself and the shadow. After all, the shadow does not essentially belong to the person himself, nor is it a part of the person... …

However, Tony Stark also knew that there were specialties in the so-called arts, and it would be more appropriate to leave these extraordinary events that he didn't understand to Robert to deal with, especially now that it was being reported that people who were sleeping more and more were becoming more and more sleepy. In the future, ordinary people should gradually start to pay attention to these things. If they are not solved, the harm will become greater and greater!

"The shadow disappeared? Did he fall into a coma?" Robert couldn't help but was stunned when he received the news from Tony Stark. Regarding the abilities of shadows, Robert was more impressed. One of them came from Doraemon. The props Shadow Scissors, one is the shadow ninjutsu of the Shikamaru family in Naruto, but Robert does not think that these two things will appear in this world.

Soon, Robert came to Tony Stark's private hospital. There were already dozens of comatose people here, which shows that Afu's actions have indeed begun to affect human society.

If all the comatose people in the world gathered together, it would definitely cause an uproar, but Ah Fu was cautious. The places where he acted were very scattered. Dozens of them in one city would not cause much concern.

However, this is only the current situation. As time goes by, more and more sleepy people will be swallowed by their shadows. After all, those sleeping people in the front will not wake up again as time goes by.

"Hmm..." Robert's eyes flickered slightly when he saw these sleeping people. To be honest, this situation was really the first time he had encountered these sleeping people. The state of these sleeping people was very unique.

"How's it going? What did you find?" Tony Stark looked at Robert's reaction and couldn't help but ask.

"It is indeed a very strange state. They look like they are asleep, but in fact they are not in a dream. It is more like they are locked in darkness, cut off from the body..." Robert Looking at the sleeping people, he spoke slowly.

Drowsiness, falling into a dream, fainting, losing consciousness, death, various different states have different manifestations. There are indeed similarities between them, but there are still considerable differences.

But now, these comatose people are obviously in another state. After the shadow is swallowed up, their consciousness is locked in darkness, completely losing contact with the outside world. If it is more prepared to describe it, it may be related to Deep vegetative state is more similar.

This means that these comatose people can only survive by relying on external nutrient solutions. If they cannot take in enough nutrients for a long time, they will also die and never have the chance to wake up.

"Then can you revive them?" Tony Stark heard Robert's story and looked at Robert with some expectancy and asked.

Tony Stark has given up on relying on scientific means to revive these people, so he hopes that Robert can revive these sleeping people. After all, it is really too dangerous to stay asleep like this.

Moreover, these comatose people in New York are relatively lucky. Basically, they were sent to private hospitals by Tony Stark. However, the remaining comatose people are not so lucky. Those who are lucky enough can be sent to private hospitals. For treatment in the hospital, those who are unlucky will either have an accident on the spot, or they will remain asleep and wait to die...

"As for these people here, there is no problem in rescuing them. However, didn't you say that there are many situations like this on the earth? It would take too long to save everyone. And if the mastermind behind the scenes is not found, this kind of thing will continue to happen..." Robert's eyes flickered slightly, and he was sure of rescuing these sleepy people here, but when it comes to saving the world Fighting every sleeper, Robert really couldn't do it.

Moreover, in this extraordinary incident, it is Afu and his shadow-eating soldiers who need to be solved. Without solving the root cause first, it will be useless no matter how many sleeping people Robert saves.

"Let me see if I can find any relevant clues after waking them up first!" Robert said, with a mysterious power surging through his body.

"Buzz!" soon, one soul after another appeared in the sky above the hospital bed, but these souls were covered with a layer of dark power. It was this layer of dark power that made them lose consciousness. As long as this dark force is broken, they can wake up.

But this is not just what Robert wants to do. Finding the mastermind behind the dark power is what Robert wants to do, especially now that Robert has seen this dark power. The mastermind behind the scenes has some speculations...

"Chi!", and soon, under the pressure of Robert's power, the dark forces were forced out of the soul in an instant, and then those dark forces may have felt the pressure from Robert. , all gathered together, seemingly intending to compete with Robert's power.

But unfortunately, Robert's power is far more powerful than the sum of these dark forces. At the same time, when these forces come together, Robert is even more certain where this power comes from!

"The dark power of the mask! Compared with the dark power of Heimdall before, I am more certain that this dark power comes from the mask!" A light flashed in Robert's eyes. After all, Robert had already defeated I don't know how many generals of the Black Shadow Corps, and he has even killed a few, so he is naturally familiar with this kind of power.

Although the power of the Shadow Corps is slightly different, there is not much difference in essence. Robert followed the dark power that now appeared in front of him and began to explore the power behind it, preparing to find Afu. identity and location.

However, Robert soon encountered the same thing as Batman. When Alfred felt the danger coming, he decisively cut off the connection with this dark power, allowing those who were sleeping to wake up faster. Come over.

However, waking up like this does not mean that these previously comatose people have returned to their normal state. Their shadows have been permanently lost, and their bodies have become extremely weak. Unless their shadows can come back again, they will not be able to survive for the rest of their lives. They will all be in this state, just like the Asgardian quartet who have lost part of their power.

"Succeeded?" Tony Stark on the side couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the sleeping people waking up. He looked at Robert and asked.

"No, failed." Robert shook his head slowly. He didn't learn nothing. He could feel that the master behind the mask had a slightly familiar feeling, although that familiar feeling was different from what he remembered. Everyone seems to be angry, but Robert is still ready to try to find the person behind the scenes.

"Clark, you should also search for the whereabouts of the man behind the scenes..." Soon, Robert also contacted Clark, preparing to find Afu as soon as possible. After all, the more this guy hides, the more he hides, the more he will threaten the entire human race. The greater the threat, this is without Robert knowing that the Shadow-Eating Soldiers can continue to grow stronger after devouring shadows.

At the same time, Alfred, who was hiding in the darkness and didn't know where he was, changed his face. He felt the power invasion from Robert, which was different from recognizing that Batman also had the power of the mask. Ah Fu did not recognize Robert's power, but this did not prevent Ah Fu from being filled with fear of Robert.

"I have to be careful. It seems that many people have noticed me. If those two people find out, it will be troublesome!" Ah Fu took a deep breath and quickly made a decision. The figure flashed and turned into a mass of darkness, blending into a dark space.

Yes, at this time, Ah Fu completely entered the dark space in order not to be discovered. Anyway, if he stayed in it, he could still control the Shadow Eater soldiers to act outside. As long as the Shadow Eater soldiers were careful enough, Ah Fu could also There is no need to worry about anyone discovering your traces.

Moreover, after putting on the mask, Ah Fu is no longer a normal life form. He no longer needs to eat, sleep or drink water. He only needs the dark power in his body to survive...

What Afu didn't know was that shortly after he escaped into the dark space, Clark's eyes swept to where he was now. Unfortunately, Clark's clairvoyance this time still found nothing. He couldn't be so far away. The power of seeing directly through dark spaces.

Therefore, Clark did not find anything unusual about Afu's place, but he discovered many other secrets and a large number of undiscovered sleepers.

Unlike Robert, Clark definitely didn't want these comatose people to die like this. Of course, Clark himself had no way to revive these people, so he could only let Robert take action.

In desperation, Robert could only take action again. After all, waking up a little weak was better than staying asleep and dying. Moreover, Robert was also ready to feel the dark power again and use more darkness. Force tries to find Ah Fu's whereabouts.

Clark looked at Robert with his eyes flickering slightly. He felt a little emotional for a moment. His strength was already invincible on earth, but this kind of invincibility could only be considered in the material plane.

When faced with this mysterious power, no matter how powerful Clark is, there is no good solution. He cannot bomb the entire earth on the spot with one punch and let the mastermind behind the scenes perish together with the earth. Therefore, he can only watch Following Robert's operation.

However, those dark forces were soon cut off again, and the comatose man woke up on the spot, but Robert still did not find Afu's whereabouts, but felt a familiar dark force.

"Dark space?" Robert recognized the existence evolved from the dark power, which made Robert frown. He did not expect that the black shadow corps he encountered this time was so troublesome. The guy who got the power It didn't swell, it was so cautious.

"Who could it be? I have felt Batman's anger before, and Batman's anger after getting the mask. Maybe I can deduce from this that among all the people I know, after adding the mask's anger, they will Depending on what he looks like, you may be able to deduce who the other party is... huh? Ah Fu? He's not dead yet?"

After Robert made some deductions, he couldn't help but be startled when he thought of Ah Fu's anger. With Ah Fu's strength, he had long been eliminated by Robert's vision. The last time he heard about Ah Fu was Peter Parker and Barry What happened when Allen met Hydra.

"At that time, Barry said that Alfred had disappeared. He didn't know whether he was dead or something. It seemed that he had gained the power of the mask and was hiding himself?" Robert's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly thought of When this happened, his figure disappeared in a flash.

Originally, if Robert had not been blacklisted by the dimension of tracking magic, Robert could still use tracking magic to find Afu's location. But now, when Robert wants to try to use tracking magic again, But he found that the power in the dark refused Robert's visit.

And Constantine has never seen Ah Fu, so Constantine's side must not be able to count on it. Robert can only go to the mountain peak where Ah Fu disappeared before, and try to search for the remaining breath inside. Find the location of Ah Fu’s dark space bit by bit!

With the help of Barry Allen and Jarvis' positioning, Robert successfully found the mountain peak where Afu disappeared before, and sure enough, he found the aura of Afu and dark power in the corner of the gravel.

"Buzz!", the next moment, Robert was suspended in the air, slowly closed his eyes, and fell into a meditative state. Qi perception and mental exploration were released at the same time, and he began to slowly search for everything about A Fu and the breath of dark space.

And Afu did not stop his actions because those sleeping people were awakened one after another. He was still sending shadow-eating soldiers to act. In order to cultivate a shadow-eating soldier strong enough to compete with Clark and Robert, he Let the fastest-growing shadow-eating soldiers swallow a large number of shadows to continuously improve their strength...

Robert and Alfred began to race against time!
