On the ground, Diana saw that Dane showed no response to her words, and an infinite worry surged in her heart.
"Guys, he's still Dane, right?" Barry said with an uncertain tone.
Clark also hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know…"
"Let me try!" Hal said, then transformed into a green beam of light, soaring into the clouds and arriving before Dane's colossal face.
"It looks even bigger up close…" Hal gazed at the giant, feeling as if he was facing the planetary Green Lantern, Mogo.
They both gave a very strong visual impact and a sense of immense power.
Hal used his lantern ring to manifest a giant megaphone and shouted at Dane: "Dane—! Are you OK?"
His voice successfully attracted the giant's attention, and its massive, lunar-ring-shaped eyes shifted downwards, focusing on Hal.
But the lantern ring instantly issued a warning to Hal!
In the nick of time, Hal only managed to envelop himself in a protective shield of green light energy.
The next second, a "mountain peak" crashed towards Hal; its ultra-high speed imbued the "mountain peak" with enormous kinetic energy, instantly shattering Hal's protective shield, and his body plummeted to the ground like a green meteor.
The impact of his landing created an explosion equivalent to tens of thousands of tons of TNT, blasting out a meteor crater several tens of meters in diameter, and the force of his fall pulverized the surrounding demons.
Hal immediately lost consciousness.
After the giant swatted away the annoying little bug, he slowly retracted his hand, took a step, and walked forward.
Each time he landed, it inevitably caused a violent earthquake, leaving a massive footprint crater.
Clark quickly flew towards Hal.
"Hal!"
Clark landed beside him and listened carefully, then breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, there was still a heartbeat.
"Cortana, help me check Hal's physical condition, Cortana? Cortana?"
Cortana didn't respond, which made Clark feel very uneasy.
In the distance, Barry and Diana arrived simultaneously.
Little Flash said to Barry from inside Barry's battle suit: "Barry, this unit has diagnostic functions."
Barry didn't react at first, but soon he quickly said: "Then hurry and help Green Lantern!"
Little Flash extended from Barry's nano-battlesuit, reorganizing its nanoparticles into a tiny hummingbird; it flapped its small wings and landed on Hal.
As soon as it touched Hal, it immediately dispersed into particles and permeated his body, and the lantern ring surprisingly did not retaliate, as if it had already deemed it harmless.
Before long, the nanoparticles that Little Flash had transformed into had traveled throughout Hal's entire body, including his internal organs, blood vessels, and nervous tissues.
It didn't rush out, but instead followed Hal's arm to the lantern ring's location, activating one of the lantern ring's functions—healing.
The lantern ring itself possesses healing abilities, but the somewhat tricky part is that, like its manifestation ability, it requires the host to actively activate it.
If the host passes out, this function cannot run automatically.
Well… sometimes the lantern ring isn't very smart when it should be.
Little Flash's activation of the lantern ring's ability stemmed from Cortana's research, or more accurately, from her and Dane's research.
When Dane learned of this drawback of the lantern ring, he began to ponder how to solve the problem.
Later, some results were achieved.
In case he also lost consciousness but needed the lantern ring, Cortana could act as the lantern ring's secondary user to activate its abilities and thus help him.
After Little Flash activated the lantern ring's healing function, it emerged from Hal's body, transformed back into a hummingbird, flew back to Barry's battle suit, and then merged into it.
Hal's entire body instantly glowed green, and that light formed a spherical shield that completely enveloped him.
Seeing that he seemed to be fine, Diana immediately said to Clark: "Superman, you stay here and protect Green Lantern; I'll go find Dane!"
"Wait…"
Clark didn't have time to stop her before he saw Wonder Woman had already flown into the sky, chasing after the giant in its direction of movement.
The little newcomer Barry shivered, involuntarily asking: "Little Flash, what should I do?"
Little Flash unceremoniously said: "Stay here, don't go anywhere!"
Barry instantly deflated, isolating himself in a corner.
Clark had no other choice but to stay by Hal's side as Wonder Woman had instructed.
There were still many demons here who hadn't died, and a portion of Kryptonians were still alive; he had to stay and protect Hal, and also Flash.
But on the other side of the battlefield, Faora, with two streaks of blood flowing from her ears, rose from a pile of corpses.
Because her battle suit had been modified by Cortana, most of the power of the previous sonic bomb was blocked by the suit, and she only sustained minor injuries.
And these minor injuries quickly recovered under the solar radiation inside the battle suit.
Faora looked up into the distance, the giant's sky-piercing body filled with a terrifying sense of power.
Even Faora, a battle-hardened Soldier, felt a long-forgotten fear from that figure.
"Is this… your true power?"
At this moment, Faora had to admit that her heart was greatly shaken, and an unprecedented feeling surged within her.
It was like a pilgrim seeing the legendary "Lord" for the first time; the impact was self-evident.
Faora suddenly had a strong urge; she wanted to chase after him, even though she didn't actually know what she wanted to do if she caught up.
"Traitor!"
At this moment, a very lucky Kryptonian Soldier crawled out from a pile of dead bodies; blood flowed from his seven orifices, his expression was crazed, and his armor was already shattered.
However, he pulled out a weapon from somewhere and charged towards Faora.
"Poor wretch."
Faora sighed, swiftly dodging the opponent's stab with superhuman speed, then grabbed his neck with both hands.
With a "crack," the Kryptonian Soldier's head was instantly twisted off.
When she saw the Soldier's expression, she knew he had gone mad, so she granted him a final dignity.
Immediately, Faora fixed her gaze on the giant's direction of movement, bent her knees into a half-crouch, then leaped, flying into the clouds.
Accompanied by a sonic boom cloud, she chased in the giant's direction.
Mind World.
Dane's naked body sat cross-legged on the black deep Water, as if in a deep sleep.
The sky here was black, with a golden lunar ring hanging high above it; the surrounding scenery was illuminated only by the afterglow of this lunar ring, sending shivers down one's spine.
Beneath the deep Water, a giant was walking underwater, but strangely, not a single sound was made.
Underwater and above Water seemed like two different Worlds.
"Dane~ Dane~"
Dane, in meditation, seemed to hear someone calling him; his eyelids trembled slightly, showing signs of opening.
But at this moment, the light of the lunar ring in the sky flickered, making Dane return to peace once more.
A moment later, a White light appeared in this dark World; it gradually contracted and reshaped, finally transforming into a graceful woman.
Looking at her face, it was none other than Dane's most loyal secretary, the Dream God Cortana.
When she appeared in this World, the lunar ring in the sky shone brightly; viscous and turbid unknown substances flowed from the golden halo, falling onto the surface of the deep Water and taking the form of seven evil devils—the seven deadly sins!
"You won't awaken him!" Pride opened its terrifying mouth, revealing a mouthful of fangs.
Wrath, with its massive body towering two head-lengths above all other Sins: "He is already ours; the World of light will no longer accommodate him."
lust, shaped like a succubus, transformed into a wisp of smoke and coiled around Dane's body; its beautiful head with goat horns lifted, looking provocatively at Cortana.
"We are one; no one can separate him from me!"
Sloth, wide and corpulent, lay on the surface of the Water, its deep demonic power almost enticing one to sink into depravity.
Greed was a one-eyed demon, its eye membrane as black as this World; its single eye seemed to hide an intense craving for everything.
Gluttony had countless mouths all over its body, each drooling, and a sense of hunger tormented it and anyone who saw it incessantly.
jealousy was a Shadow, hidden beneath the deep Water, expanding silently.
Dane combined the authority of Hell with Parasite Demon cells to create this new body capable of containing the seven deadly sins, allowing the seven deadly sins to directly absorb the Sins of Hell's demons.
And their power, after absorbing the Sin-qi of all Hell, experienced an incredible leap!
The seven of them combined were a demon among demons, and because they possessed the authority to control Hell, they transformed from demons into gods, no longer existing in opposition to deities, but rather combined beings.
They were both demons and gods.
