"Crazy! Crazy! Why are there so many crazy people in this city?!"
Carrying his injured shoulder, Carol and the Green Lanterns quickly shuttled between the high-rise buildings in Gotham, using the energy of the green lantern to fly at low altitudes.
The reason why they don't fly high is because there are Bat fighter planes loaded with missiles patrolling the sky.
Huge high-rise buildings are lined up in rows, with green light spots flying past like fireflies, while the huge screens on the walls of the high-rise buildings are filled with light. When the green light spots pass by, a smiling face in a clown costume on the screen says to the camera:
"Here is the late-night weather forecast brought to you by Clown Jack. The weather will be sunny today, there may be heavy snow at night, and a magical creature named Green Lantern will appear in the sky..."
"Okay, that's it for today's weather forecast, because Jack, as the host, is going to get off work...what? You ask me what I'm going to do after get off work? Of course I'm going to take this opportunity to drive!"
"After all, today will be the night with the most green lights in Gotham, hahahahaha!
"
"boom!"
After flying across the screen, Hal dodged and dodged a rocket. When he looked back, the huge screen had been blown up and sparks were flying.
He accelerated his flight speed and came to a position shoulder to shoulder with the leader Carroll. He said: "This won't work, we will be beaten down sooner or later!"
"What is going on in this city? Why are there so many madmen?!" Carol was puzzled. He lowered his head and looked down. The ground was full of gangs chasing them. Each of them had an armed truck.
There were all kinds of weapons on it, and they were chasing them.
The ring can indeed help the Lantern resist bullets and explosions, but it also requires energy, and flying and dodging also require energy. Once the energy is exhausted, Carol simply can't imagine what will happen if it falls into the hands of these madmen.
as a result of.
"Hal, haven't you been here for a while? Is there a safer place for us to repair?"
Carol glanced at the Green Lanterns who were already unable to fly, and asked Hal.
Originally, most of the members of the second team were novices. Although they had been trained, they rarely participated in high-intensity tasks. The experience in Gotham could no longer be said to be high-intensity, nor could it be said that it was a difficult start to hell.
Not an exaggeration.
Green Lantern energy is just a tool. It has no self-awareness and no way to control the actions of the Lantern. All the actions of the Lantern are made by thinking by themselves and then controlling their limbs. In other words, although they can fly, how to fly requires them.
They think for themselves, and to make any movements, they also need to adjust their limbs themselves.
Now, the density of Gotham's firepower network requires them to concentrate at high intensity at all times to deal with stray bullets and explosive fragments coming from all directions.
The difficult aerial maneuvers, which averaged once every three seconds, were a bit overwhelming for Hal, who was once a test pilot, let alone the novice Green Lanterns who had no experience in aerial operations.
There was a "boom", and there was another explosion from a fighter missile, and the young Green Lantern who fell at the end of the team was directly blown away...
His reaction was a little slower and he did not avoid the aftermath of the impact. The teammate next to him just wanted to fly over to save him, but was stunned by the flash bomb and was hit immediately.
Hal and Carol, the two Green Lanterns with the best flying skills, hurried back to rescue them. After a lot of effort, they were able to get the two people back.
Hal used his green light energy to connect to the exhausted Green Lantern, took him flying, and then said to Carol: "There are almost no safe places in this city. Let's evacuate here first."
Hal looked up and glanced at the three Bat fighters flying in circles in the sky, and then said: "Someone has to lead them away. I'll go."
Looking at his resolute look, Carol couldn't help but be moved. He said, "Even though I have served in the Green Lantern Corps for so long, you are still the most outstanding newcomer I have ever seen."
Hal turned to look at him and said, "For justice."
Just when Carol was about to leave with the other Green Lanterns, Hal stopped them again and said: "The trouble in this city has not been solved yet. You'd better move to other cities on the earth and wait for the headquarters."
support.”
"I'm afraid we have to do this too, because the remaining energy in the ring is not enough for us to teleport directly back to the headquarters. You are a local. Do you know where it is safer?"
Hal thought for a moment and then pointed them in a direction. Carol nodded and said:
"After we find a safe base, we will immediately call for support and then return immediately to pick you up."
Hal saluted him, then turned around and flew away. Several other Green Lanterns watched him leave, their hearts filled with solemn emotions.
In their view, staying in this chaotic, crazy and dangerous city for even one second requires great courage, and Hal is obviously a lone brave man who overcomes difficulties.
Hal flew near a Bat fighter plane. I don’t know what he said to the people in the fighter plane. The fighter plane chased him and left. Then, the remaining two fighter planes were also lured away by him, and Green Lantern
They took this opportunity to fly away from Gotham City.
After they flew far away, Hal stopped. He disappeared instantly and then appeared in the co-pilot position of the Batfighter. Batman turned his head and stared at him with narrowed eyes.
Hal also turned to look at Batman, shrugged and said, "I think you should know who to go to."
Batman turned his head back and pressed the button on the operation panel. The navigation voice made a pleasant sound: "Navigating, destination...Rodriguez Manor."
By the time Batman entered Rodriguez Manor, Schiller and Constantine were already sitting on the sofa drinking.
The cup made a crisp sound when it hit the surface of the coffee table, and the golden wine fell into the cup, splashing bright water.
Batman held up the wine glass expressionlessly, but did not drink. Hal, who was sitting next to him, poured the whiskey in the glass into his mouth without any scruples.
The cold wine sobered up his brain a lot and relieved the fatigue from the flight. Just as Schiller opened his mouth to speak, Batman said: "You don't need to explain to me why you want to deal with Green Lantern. In this regard, I
It’s consistent with your position.”…
Schiller took a sip of wine, then touched his chest with his hand, raised his glass at Batman and said: "This is why I like to talk to smart people. Let's skip the unimportant truths and excuses."
Well, this has to start from the last time Constantine called me and said he was going to be admitted to Arkham Psychiatric Hospital..."
Constantine held the wine glass, took a big sip of wine, then picked up the wine bottle and filled his glass again.
He leaned back relaxedly on the back of the sofa, put his hands on the back of the chair, shook his head and said, "No way, my personal charm is too strong. A little boy named Bruce chased me all over the city. He was dissatisfied with me going to the red light district.
So he made a big fuss there, and even when I went to relax for a while, he would stick to me..."
Hal spit out a mouthful of wine. Constantine caught a glimpse of the sharp light of the batarang in Batman's hand. He cleared his throat and said, "Okay, no kidding. Originally, I called Schiller.
I just want to find a place to hide."
"But this damn miser, that damn Grandet, won't admit me to the hospital until I do something for him."
"So, you started the gang fight in the hospital?" Batman asked.
"According to the original plan, it was really me who was going to do this, but I didn't expect that there were two guys in the hospital who were ready to make trouble. They wanted to cause some trouble and then took the opportunity to escape. I simply took advantage of their plan and expanded the chaos.
a little."
"What's going on with the green light?" Batman looked at Schiller again, but Schiller turned to look at Hal. Hal shrugged and explained to Batman how he went to Oua to request support.
.
"You first started a fight among the gangs, and then put the Green Lanterns right in the middle of the chaos. The purpose was to make the Green Lanterns realize the danger of the earth?"
"But I'm afraid, this won't be enough to deter them, nor will it keep them away from the Earth. Instead, it may make these green flies brainwashed by a sense of justice buzz around the Earth." Batman gave an evaluation.
It can be heard from his wording that Batman does not have a good impression of the Green Lantern Corps, but it is also understandable. He is the only Gotham native among the four people present, and just now, this group of guys with green lights all over their bodies
, flying arrogantly over Gotham, not only caused many car accidents, but also allowed gangsters to blow up many buildings.
More importantly, Batman has always regarded Gotham as his own territory. He has an almost perverted desire to control Gotham, and this group of people broke into this place without anyone's consent. If it hadn't been for Hal just now
After stopping Batman from chasing after him in a fighter plane, Carol and the others haven't run out yet.
"My intention was not to intimidate them." Schiller put down the glass.
"Then what are you going to do? This series of actions of yours will only make them focus on the earth and attract them all here."
"My purpose is to lure them here."
As soon as Schiller finished saying this, he heard the phone ringing. Merkel walked down the stairs, picked up the phone receiver and said: "Hello, hello, this is Rodriguez Manor, yes, he is...
"
With that said, he put the phone on the coffee table and handed the receiver to Schiller. Schiller said to the phone: "Oh, really? Are you already on the way?...Okay, I'll wait for you."
Batman stared at Schiller, as if he had already had a premonition. At this moment, he heard Schiller say to the other end of the phone:
