Chapter 418 Hal: I'm the best, the Bat Parallax Laughing Devil
"Master Thomas, do you need a cup of coffee?"
The Outsider stood beside Night Owl.
It was another sleepless night, just like the countless days and nights they had experienced before.
In the past so many years, he was Thomas Wayne's most loyal servant. The Outsider knew that Thomas Wayne would never be weak. He was always wise and cruel. He was more cold-blooded than his evil parents, and this was exactly what the Outsider admired about him.
The Outsider placed the hot coffee in front of Night Owl, who was sitting in front of Owl's computer. There was even a simple owl-style flower on the coffee.
He raised his head while putting the coffee, and saw the screen on the Owl computer showing Batman being possessed by Parallax Monster and Ion Shark at the same time. These two big lamp beasts also brought two thigh pendants each.
"Please have it."
The Outsider said. But Night Owl did not pick up the coffee and put it into his mouth.
The evil version of the old butler Alfred just saw Night Owl turn his head and stare at him expressionlessly. This action was very oppressive, although Night Owl had no intention of doing so.
The outsider was silent for a while.
"Are you remotely controlling your armor again?"
They used to be very close... once.
But since a certain day, Night Owl has almost never shown his true body in front of everyone, but has always used remote-controlled armor as a substitute, even when facing Super and outsiders.
"Can't you see me?"
The outsider asked.
He realized that Night Owl, who appeared in the state of remote-controlled armor, could not drink the coffee that he had spent a long time mixing, nor could he eat the snacks that had not yet been served.
The chin under his helmet is just a bionic human biological tissue. When that butt chin opens its mouth, it will only shoot out deadly energy weapons to attack.
But the outsider was still very happy, because he knew that the armor of Night Owl had the effect of simulating real people. The armor was installed with almost all the simulation methods that Night Owl knew. Not to mention pretending to eat and drink tea, it would not be exposed even in front of Superman, but he did not let the empty armor start the camouflage program in front of him.
He stopped entangled with these, and turned his eyes back to the screen. Then paused:
"Do you really..."
"Are you really going to do that?"
"Obviously, it is true."
"It's too risky, sir, you..."
But before the outsider finished speaking, he heard the sexy face of Nightwing Dick Grayson appear on the secondary screen of the Owl computer next to him.
He was dressed up, wearing a V-neck Nightwing suit, not the flash disco one. He had a serious expression, as if he really had something serious to talk to Night Owl about.
The outsider's pale face immediately darkened. Even the pale face caused by the side effects of the Joker potion could not completely make his stinky face look good.
The outsider almost spoke in a disgusted tone, but he managed to maintain his usual politeness.
"Please wait a moment."
He turned on the communication and started to talk nonsense with Nightwing. Soon he defeated the other party temporarily, but the outsider knew that he would come back soon.
The outsider hung up the communication.
"Master Thomas," he said, "What you are doing now is very dangerous. The Anti-Monitor requires a..." "A universe that is strong enough for him to destroy, no matter how strong it is." Night Owl interrupted him and said, "As long as my plan succeeds, all creatures in the universe will become extremely powerful. Combining the power of all creatures, it may force Darkseid to compromise his prophecy." "But it is also very likely that you added two more spoons of stones to the diner's pot, causing his big teeth to break, and then making the other party angry. Do you really think that you can still hide your actions from the other party at that time?" The outsider said, "If you have made up your mind to sacrifice this universe to preserve our world, then why do you do these unnecessary actions? You should know that it seems that this world cannot be compared with our world, whether it is you or me." Night Owl did not speak. After a while, he suddenly said: "I hinted part of my plan to sacrifice this universe to Luther."
"You told...you..."
The outsider was speechless for a moment, he couldn't find a word to describe the other party's behavior:
He said: "Why?"
"I want to increase the power of this universe as much as possible."
Night Owl said: "You asked me why I told Luther that he was one of the smartest people in this universe. He might find a way to stop me."
The outsider didn't speak, and after a long time he said: "It's guilt, right?"
"Yes." Night Owl nodded in agreement
"I'm not a butcher who slaughters the entire universe, unless I have no choice."
Night Owl said.
"So I want to try, I want to try if this universe can bring surprises, if it can help me defeat him."
"If not..."
The two were silent for a while.
The outsider knew very well that Night Owl was trying to prove it. If it is proved that even if this universe resists with all its strength, it cannot fight against the anti-monitor, then Night Owl can sacrifice this universe without guilt, and it is reasonable.
He didn't know why Night Owl had become so hypocritical. In the past, he never cared about other people's opinions, nor did he feel guilty.
Someone must have changed, or was this his nature, a suppressed nature.
"This is a very dangerous operation." The outsider said, "Once the Anti-Monitor finds out what you're doing..."
"Then don't let him find out." Night Owl said, "A universe that refuses to be swallowed by him can burst out with unimaginable potential, right? I just need this universe to become stronger, no matter what method."
He said, "That's right, I have something for you to do. I plan to transform them all into-"
"Night Owl."
On the screen, a communication interrupted Night Owl's words.
Night Owl turned his head and saw General Zod's face appear on it.
"It's done."
He stood in the boundless universe, surrounded by thousands of Green Lanterns, and next to him was the most powerful planetary Green Lantern Mogo.
He said, "I need your help now."
...
...
...
"Hal..."
Hal Jordan's mind was filled with Sinestro's voice again, and this voice was like a death warrant, wandering in his mind.
Perhaps it was a mockery, perhaps it was a show-off, he remembered the words Sinestro had said to him when he was imprisoned.
Those words about the parallax monster, about the future and dreams...
Even now, Hal could remember Sinestro's earnest words to beg him to join him, help him, and bring a new order to the universe.
But Hal knew that he refused.
He knew that even if he left in anger, Hal was never the type who knew nothing and patted his butt and left.
There was a reason why Chen Tao chose Hal to be the backup leader of the Justice League. Although Hal seemed impulsive and immature in the past, when he decided to become a leader himself, he would change from the biggest thorn to the second Batman.
Hal knew exactly how much control a lantern beast, a collection of will and energy, could have over living things, and he also knew exactly how suitable a host Sinestro was for such a lantern beast.
He knew that Batman had fought against Darkseid before, right? He himself had once served as Batman's living battery.
But Batman didn't have his help now.
Batman was always like this, he never liked help from others.
And at this moment, he was alone and was led into a trap by Sinestro.
Sinestro told him a lot about him and his plans, and Hal had a fire burning in his heart. For so many times, Batman had always protected him, protected others, and gave them orders, but finally one day, finally one time.
It was Hal Jordan's turn to save Batman.
Hal Jordan thought so.
He quickly used the green lantern ring to open the wormhole, moving at superluminal speed, without even waiting for his companions to catch up with him.
Then he opened the last portal.
Then he saw Batman, with the energy of the Yellow Lantern wrapped around him, laughing wildly with his head tilted up to the sky, holding... a corpse beside him.
"Hahahahahahahahahaha..."
Hal knew that Batman always liked to laugh, and he never stopped laughing.
But at least Batman didn't laugh as horribly as he did now, at least not in Hal's memory.
He saw Batman's gums were exposed when he laughed, like a happy beast.
Hal lowered his head and saw the bodies of Green Lanterns and Yellow Lanterns floating in the universe everywhere.
"Oh my god!" He gasped.
"Parallax Batman!"
...
...
...
General Zod was surrounded by many Green Lanterns in the center.
This was a well-organized Green Lantern group of more than 2,000 people. Even though Hal Jordan left with four other most elite Green Lantern companions a few minutes ago, the troops left at the scene were still at a level that could wipe out General Zod and his gang.
In fact, if the other party had not already controlled the powerful planetary Green Lantern Mogo, Kilowog would not even let so many Green Lanterns participate in the battle to besiege General Zod. There is no need for that, you know, with General Zod and the other three Kryptonians, how can such a big battle be needed?
"You know what? I never looked down on you."
He heard General Zod's voice: "A senior Green Lantern, but he is following the lead of another young Green Lantern? What a joke?"
He said: "Are you sure you are his predecessor?"
"Surrender obediently."
Kilowog said.
He did not have any emotional fluctuations because of General Zod's words. As the other party said, he was a senior Green Lantern, and therefore a battle-hardened warrior.
Such pre-war trash talk could not stir his emotions. What was more important than this was...
He made a few tactical gestures to the other Green Lantern members behind his back. Although the Green Lanterns were forbidden to socialize privately, the Guardians of the Universe would not be stupid enough to prohibit the Green Lanterns from training together and joining forces. Kilowog is the chief instructor of the Green Lantern Corps, and this is what he is responsible for.
Therefore, although Mogo's strength is many times that of an ordinary Green Lantern, as long as they cooperate properly, Kilowog is fully confident that they can successfully capture the other party.
"Form a tactical square!"
He gave orders to the other Green Lanterns, and before General Zod could make a move, huge chains quickly flew from the rings in the hands of other Green Lanterns toward Planet Green Lantern Mogo.
Under General Zod's control, Mogo gushed out huge green light energy, trying to resist these chains, but these chains were made up of tiny chains materialized by countless Green Lanterns, and were not afraid of going head-on with Mogo's own strength.
Amid a violent noise, the green light energy erupted by Green Lantern Mogo collided with the chains formed by 2,000 Green Lanterns, and was quickly smashed to pieces, and then the green light chains wrapped around his body.
And Kilowog also saw that Mogo was trying hard to resist General Zod's control, otherwise if Mogo, who was in full condition, went all out, his 2,000 colleagues would not be able to tie him up so easily.
I think they will be able to resolve the battle soon.
This battle was shorter than Kilowog had expected. Hal Jordan was just the vanguard. After solving the problem here and recalling Mogo, the most powerful member of the Green Lantern Corps, they had to set off and rush back to OA immediately to find out what happened.
Hal had already told them about Sinestro's conspiracy. Although they still had doubts about what the emotional spectrum of the lantern beast was, after all, they had not seen the blood-slaughtering bull like Hal Jordan, but just hearing Hal Jordan's story was enough for them to pay attention.
Must...
"Danger... Danger..."
Kilowog suddenly felt a pain in his head. This familiar tingling sensation made him realize that a Green Lantern was using the Green Lantern Ring to communicate with him, and the other party's mental power was strong and did not know how to control his power, and the member who communicated with him was...
Mogo?
"Danger!"
"Run!"
Kilowog finally heard what Mogo wanted to convey. He looked at General Zod, who was at ease, and suddenly his heart was alarmed and panicked for no reason.
But this made no sense. Their forces far outnumbered the enemy. Even Mogo was about to be captured due to his own resistance and the cooperation of many Green Lanterns.
What else could General Zod do to turn the tables?
"Guess..."
Then he heard the other party say, "Guess why I let Hal Jordan leave?"
Behind him, the portal to the Phantom Zone slowly opened again.
"Night Owl."
He said, "Help me."
Kilowog didn't understand what he was going to do for a moment, but then he felt a huge suction force coming towards them from the Phantom Zone.
"Damn it!"
