"Ever since the first ti I absorbed energy, I knew this rule should be unregulated," Shiller shook his head and said, "The reason it stopped this ti, I'm afraid, is because the energy has been drained by us."
The reason Shiller dared to recklessly extract this dark energy, without worrying about Barbados noticing, is that he discovered this energy wasn't originally Barbados' energy but rather it went through so special treatnt.
In other words, they are not actually fleecing Barbados in real-ti, the Dark Owl priest has already fleeced it for them, even weaving the wool into blankets. What they are actually stealing is the stored blankets from the warehouse.
The reason why Shiller thought this rule was unregulated is not just because the Dark Owl didn't respond when Aisha and the others absorbed energy previously, but also because according to Gotham's history records, the era when the owl nursery rhy was popular has long passed.
In recent modern history, this song has fallen out of favor, no children sing it anymore, indicating that this set of rules has been abandoned for a long ti.
Being awakened once again with remaining effectiveness is probably because the batteries left here still had so residual power, and Shiller's goal is to quickly drain this residual power.
Soone might think that since the batteries have already been discarded, wouldn't it be okay to steal the power at any ti? But this brings us to Shiller's previous arrangent in tropolis.
He knew long ago that there were owls in tropolis, so he deliberately gave the badge to Pikachu, then used Clark to inform Lex about the illegal intrusion of the agents, and then let Lex find the CIA agents.
Having experienced the event at the tropolitan Mayor's Mansion, Shiller was of course very clear that after Benjamin's death, the CIA's officer in charge in tropolis was changed to the female agent Kira, and Kira was KGB, and also a student of Alfred.
After Kira ca to know about this and received the badge, she would definitely notice that there were other mysterious forces within tropolis. According to the KGB's way of doing things, a month has passed, and it's probably bad news for the owls of tropolis.
In a secret eting room beneath the tropolis sewers, a mysterious person wearing a black robe and a bird beak mask spoke, "The godless madn are getting close to this place. Although the great dark lord is everywhere, for his cause, we need to lay low..."
"But where do we go?" another mysterious person in a black robe asked.
"We left Gotham originally just to develop power in tropolis. Now that we have several secret bases in tropolis and many mbers of the Owl Parliant have stayed here... it's ti to return to Gotham."
"That's right," another deep and hoarse voice said, "When we left, we left the most precious Dark Statue there. Because of our departure, the Gothamites haven't spoken our na for many years. It's a good opportunity to use that essence energy upon our return..."
"Do you still rember the spell?" a sharp female voice chanted, "Muliz... Muliz..."
Suddenly, she stopped and asked, "What's going on? Why didn't the statue answer my call? ...Co... Owl... co find , I will return to the promised land under your guidance..."
"Muliz... Muliz..." all the black-robed people began chanting.
But no owl ca flying here, and they gradually stopped chanting. The room fell silent again. The leader waved his magic wand, the array in the room lit up, and everyone disappeared instantly, then found themselves in a room with a giant owl statue.
This room isn't just located in Gotham's underground, it's also protected by mysterious spells, insensible and invisible. Only by using a special Teleportation Array can one reach here. This is the secret asure the Owl Priests set up to protect their hard work.
The leader of the Dark Owl priests froze as soon as he landed because the black owl that was originally full of dark energy had turned grey. The dark energy they had purified from their bodies over many years through prayers to the Dark Lord was all gone.
At the sa ti as they were going crazy, Shiller, Bruce, Hal, Constantine, these four power thieves, stood in a row in the underground room.
Shiller stepped forward first and asked, "Recently, the energy loss of the Dark Owl priests has been severe, do any of you have any leads?"
Then, he looked up at the pile of Dark Energy Storage Modules that looked like a small hill and said,
"...I certainly don't."
