"How can I stay calm?! I'm glowing! It's still green!" Dick shouted at him.
He was clearly confused by the situation, and like a real kid, he said, "Oh my God! I can't believe it. How am I going to go to school tomorrow? How am I going to explain to the teacher that I'm going to go to school tomorrow?"
Overnight, I will shine?!"
As he spoke, he said a little dejectedly: "The management of our school is very strict. We must have traditional hair colors. We are not even allowed to dye our hair. If the teacher sees that not only my hair has turned green, but also my whole body has turned green."
If she chooses green, she will be so angry that she will find her parents!"
Hal was speechless. Obviously, he had no experience in raising children and didn't know how to deal with Dick's realistic but somewhat too realistic logic.
"Also, I am going to visit my biological parents at the end of this month. They are very old-school people. They even only use dark green for Christmas. How can I explain that I suddenly become more than a Christmas elf?"
Still green??”
Hal stared at the ceiling of Wayne Manor. When he first obtained this ability, he once imagined how great it would be if he could obtain this ability earlier. But now, he found that teenagers are thinking about this world.
The greatest mystery in the world.
Dick doesn't seem to have this magical teleportation ability, nor does he care whether he can control this powerful power. He only cares about the green light all over his body.
At this moment, Hal, who was deeply involved in this kind of trouble, suddenly had some other thoughts.
Is he really awake?
After an ordinary person obtains the green light ring, he should indeed be confused by the strange appearance of his ability to activate, but Hal found that he seemed to have never felt this way at all.
Even though he caused a traffic jam because he was too much like a green light in a traffic light, he still had no doubts about it.
At this moment, Hal suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Just like the sense of horror that all humans feel when they discover that they may be controlled by something, Hal suddenly broke away from the green light ring due to an accident.
Er, he discovered too many anomalies that he had not noticed before.
Thinking back to what Alfred had said to him before, cold sweat soaked his back, and the thick bomber jacket couldn't make him feel warm.
What on earth is he doing? Obtaining the power of aliens and reporting the information here to aliens? Has he been bribed or controlled?
There is no doubt that even the fledgling Hal is a good person with quite correct views, and his strong will makes him not afraid to admit his mistakes and immediately find ways to redeem himself.
He moved his body hard, turned his chair back, looked at Batman and said, "The problem may be more serious than we thought."
"Indeed, if you can't give a plan for Dick to recover, then..."
"No, that's not what I mean!" Hal interrupted Batman. Batman was rarely interrupted like this. He looked at Hal silently, but Hal said to himself: "I think this
some problems."
He sighed and said: "As you know, I accidentally obtained a green light ring that gave me magical abilities. The person who gave this ring to me was an alien who died when the spacecraft crashed.
Starman, he told me about the existence of the Green Lantern Corps.”…
"Later, the power of this ring brought me in contact with the Green Lantern Corps. They told me about the history of this Corps. I was deeply moved and felt deeply honored to be able to join such a team."
"The first official mission I received was to go to Gotham to investigate the Yellow Light. You all know what happened next."
"And the second task I received was to monitor the movements of the members of the Yellow Lantern Corps."
"In the messages I received, the Yellow Lantern Corps was described as a very terrifying existence. They would interfere with the work of the Green Lanterns and bring destruction and fear to the universe."
"And the terrifying monster I saw in the dream world proves this, which makes me even more convinced that the Green Lantern Corps is determined to maintain peace and tranquility in the universe."
"But, I don't know..." Hal showed a little hesitation and said, "I may have leaked too much information to this mysterious Green Lantern Corps. I haven't even been to their headquarters, I just contacted them remotely.
…”
"I am eager to complete the mission and feel that I should report the cause and effect of this incident to prevent the evil members of the Yellow Lantern Corps from causing any harm to the earth, so..."
When Hal looked up, he saw Batman squinting his eyes. For some reason, Hal had a bad feeling when he saw this expression.
"Why do you think the safety of the earth should be left to outsiders to protect?" Batman asked a very fatal question, and Hal was speechless.
"Did they tell you the true origin of the Green Lantern Ring?" Batman asked another question, but Hal still couldn't answer. He said:
"I heard that it was the first race born in the universe and created this army to maintain the peace of the universe..."
"In other words, it is still created by intelligent creatures. It has leaders, division of labor, different departments, bases, and various members..."
Batman crossed his arms and asked: "How do you ensure that the information you upload will not be seen by people who should not see it? How do you ensure that the leadership of this team has no ill intentions towards the earth?"
Hal shook his head, and Batman looked into his eyes and asked him: "Do you not want to answer, or do you simply don't know? I hope it's the former."
Hal felt that his lips were a little dry. He pursed his lips and said in a low tone: "...I don't know."
"You rashly joined a company without fully understanding its nature, scale, personnel structure, and operating system, and uploaded all your personal data, your family's, neighbors', and street's data to their network..."
As Batman's tone became deeper and deeper, Hal's bad premonition became stronger and stronger. But at this moment, Alfred suddenly spoke up. He said: "Grandpa, what happened to your college just now?"
Professor Rodriguez called to ask about the situation here."
"He said he heard Elsa scream and expressed concern. He said he would wait in front of the phone until it was confirmed that the situation here was safe. I think, in order not to keep your respected professor up all night.
, you'd better call him back now..."...
The air pressure around Batman was extremely low, but after hearing Alfred's words, he remained silent for a while, then turned and walked towards the phone desk.
As soon as the call was connected, Schiller's voice rang over there: "I guess you have caught Hal by now and are questioning him about the Green Lantern Corps, right?"
"I didn't 'catch' him, nor was I 'questioning' him." Batman immediately denied Schiller's words, and Schiller immediately said: "Well, I think you should have invited Green Lantern by now.
I sat on a certain chair and some safety measures were taken to secure him."
"Then while chatting with him, I unexpectedly obtained some information about the Green Lantern Corps."
"What do you think of the Green Lantern Corps?" Schiller asked him.
"A group of aliens with evil intentions who may pose a threat to the earth at any time and have already developed spies on the earth."
"As expected." Schiller said to the other end of the phone: "First of all, I have no idea why Hal appeared in Wayne Manor. Secondly, if you want to investigate the Green Lantern Corps, there is a best way.
, that’s starting from the green light ring.”
"Remember the box I gave you last time? You should already know what's in it..."
After Batman put down the phone, he felt a little calmer. Any violent measures against Hal now would not be conducive to the development of the situation. The most important thing is to deal with Dick's situation first.
While Batman was on the phone, Hal was still communicating with Dick, but the two of them were more like talking to each other.
Hal kept emphasizing that Dick should learn to be calm and learn to control his power, but Dick was panicked in the face of this unusual state, and the two of them were not on the same page at all.
When Batman came back, Hal sighed and said: "Although I admit that I am not a good teacher, I don't know how to teach a teenager to use the power of will. When I was ten years old, I said
Maybe I can’t even spell the word will correctly.”
"I feel like I can't teach him, but I don't know who can teach him. If I want to teach him to control this kind of power, I should at least have mastered this kind of power myself."
"However, the Green Lantern Corps' criteria are very strict. Only one in a billion people can meet the requirements. Where can I find another Green Lantern?"
Batman stared at him silently, and Hal saw the look in his eyes, and he said: "...No, there is no way, and why don't you understand? The green light requires very harsh willpower, which is not something ordinary people can achieve.
owned."
Seeing Batman staring at him, Hal could only explain: "Well, if there is a trick, you have to concentrate and show your willpower..."
"Although I got this ring from another alien, it took me a long time to get the green light approval..."
Just then, a familiar green light slipped through the window, Hal's eyes widened, and a ring emitting a faint green light quietly stopped between him and Batman.
Listening to the all too familiar oath of the Green Lantern Corps, Hal opened his mouth wide and said in surprise: "Wait a minute, I know the Green Lantern ring will be reissued, but I haven't reported the damage yet, so why..."
As soon as he said this, the ring emitting green light flew towards Batman, and kept rubbing against Batman like a pet dog waiting for its owner to pet it.
Just when Hal was surprised, something even more shocking happened. Batman slowly opened his mouth and said, "I refuse."
The green light ring stopped in mid-air, and then slowly floated out of the window of Wayne Manor at an extremely slow speed, turning back three times in one step. Unfortunately, Batman did not regret it in the end.
"I'm just trying to see if this really works."
Hal coughed a few times and said: "The opportunity to be selected by the Lantern Ring is very precious. There may not be many people like this in the world. You are just like this..."
Just as Hal was speaking, Batman left the hall. After a while, he came back with a box in his hands and sat on the sofa. As Hal watched, he opened the box.
