"Boom!"
Howl's body was like a piece of trash that had been thrown down from the thirtieth floor. He crashed into the warehouse that had been turned into a pile of rubble, kicking up a cloud of dust. In the next second, he let out an angry roar and turned into a green stream of light again, charging into the sky.
There, the cane in J.A.R.V.I.S's hand has turned into two silver-white slender rapiers. Every time he swings, blocks, and stabs, he is as accurate as a robot. With the help of his Mechanical Life Core, all the attack patterns of Green Lantern, who is still very young, have been seen through by him. If HAL can't show combat power beyond his body, then his failure is expected.
"Uncle HAL! Come on! Beat him down! "
HAL's little nephew, Jason, was gnawing on a chicken leg while waving his fist and shouting at the Green Lantern in the sky. Behind him, HAL's relatives looked at the battle in the sky worriedly, especially HAL's mother. As the widow of a former ace pilot, she longs for her son to become a hero who protects the world, but on the other hand, she hesitates about her son's safety.
Just like all parents in the world, they want their children to be successful, but they also want them to live a safe and peaceful life.
This so-called "kidnapping" is just Nebula's bad taste. Saber didn't ask her and J.A.R.V.I.S how to get the result, so this is just a bad joke played by Nebula and Green Lantern. But now, after telling the truth, all the contradictions have been solved.
Not far from Howl's house, Nebula was leaning against a bench by the roadside in boredom. She was drinking a bottle of wine that she brought with her while closing her eyes in disinterest. Next to her was Carol, who had a worried look on her face. She looked at the battle in the sky that was full of fantasy.
"Will HAL lose?"
"If he still maintains this basic fighting style, he will lose."
Nebula glanced at the Green Lantern who was beaten by J.A.R.V.I.S and said softly,
"That ring could have given him extraordinary combat abilities. As long as his willpower and imagination were strong enough, he could even wipe out this city in an instant. Unfortunately, he hasn't gotten used to this power. Or rather, he's used to bullying the weak. When faced with a real challenge, he's too impatient."
"Spending all their energy on debauchery, heh, men …"
She looked at Coral and couldn't help but lick her scarlet lips. She sat up, put her arm around Coral's shoulder, and whispered in her ear.
"Do you want me to cut him some slack in his evaluation report? Little cutie … "
"Huh?"
Coral was a woman with a normal sexual orientation. She was not used to Nebula's teasing, but she still asked, "Can I really?"
"Of course!"
Nebula stuck out her tongue and licked Coral's earlobe. This action made the female pilot's body tremble. Then she heard Nebula whisper in her ear like a lover.
"I just need a little contribution from you …"
When Coral heard this voice, she subconsciously clamped her legs together.
Fifteen minutes later, Nebula broke through the darkness with a satisfied look on her face and appeared behind Jarvis. She reached out and held down her companion who was violently beating HAL.
"We've wasted enough time on him, Jarvis. Being able to last so long under your attacks has already proven his potential, although he still needs a complete set of training and combat training …"
"Hmm … what you said makes sense."
After a moment of thought, Jarvis put away the rapier in his hand, straightened his somewhat messy clothes, and took a step back to give his position to Nebula. The latter looked at HAL, who was panting, and the light in her eyes became cold.
"Listen up, Hal Jordan. You've passed, but it's a terrible result. It's very sad. So, you have to register at the Delta Wing Building in New York within seven working days and participate in combat and energy projection training for four weeks. If you can't pass the final test, I'm sorry, but we'll still take your ring!"
"You have no right to do this!"
HAL shouted. He felt a sense of danger from the bottom of his heart. "My ring was given to me by the Green Lantern Corps. The power of their will has chosen me. I serve a higher system and organization."
"So, you expect your identity as a Green Lantern Corps soldier to scare us?"
Nebula snorted. "Forget it. We know the Green Lantern Corps far better than you do. Guardians of 3600 sectors trying to maintain the so-called order of the universe with their own will? Face the reality! You're just a bunch of trash who can't compare to the best but are better than the worst. The path we're giving you is the path you should take! "
"I! I don't believe it! "
HAL stubbornly raised his head and met Nebula's gaze. This kind of resistance made the assassin's fingers involuntarily reach for the hilt of his sword. However, the next moment, Jarvis's voice rang out.
"Sir is here!"
"Hmm?"
Upon hearing this, Nebula and Jarvis immediately took a few steps back. They folded their hands and bowed slightly, as if welcoming the arrival of a certain important person. The next moment, the space in front of HAL shattered. Saber, dressed in black, walked out from it. He didn't even look at HAL. Instead, he turned to look at his subordinates and said softly, "It's a little late.
But it's not unacceptable. There's nothing for you to do here. Go track the other rings. Focus on the orange one! "
"Yes, Overlord!"
Jarvis and Nebula's figures disappeared from the port in the next moment. It was as if they had never appeared. After doing all this, Saber turned around and fixed his gaze on HAL.
The moment Saber's gaze landed on him, HAL felt the pressure on his shoulders. It was as heavy as a mountain, and he couldn't help but want to kneel down. This was the instinctive pressure of a higher life form on a lower life form. Especially when Saber didn't retract this pressure, HAL's spirit was destined to be under great pressure.
"HAL Jordan, you accidentally obtained the light ring from a Green Lantern holder who died in the battle of New York. I have to say, you're really lucky, child."
Saber took a step back. Thousands of flames intertwined behind him, forming a gorgeous and heavy throne. He sat on it and turned his head to look at the side. There, HAL's little nephew was looking at him with a blank face. A smile appeared on his lips, and he waved to the child.
"Come here, Jason!"
HAL's gaze suddenly turned to his nephew, and he looked at him with a warning gaze.
"Don't go, silly boy! That's a dangerous guy you don't even dare to think about! "
However, the child didn't feel threatened by Saber. He looked at his parents, who seemed to feel Saber's kindness, so they nodded at him. Little Jason walked toward Saber. He looked up at Saber's throne and curiously reached out to touch the flames. Unexpectedly, the burning flames were not hot. Instead, they were as comfortable as a soft sofa.
"Are you a magician? Sir? "
Jason looked at Saber and asked timidly, "Can my uncle become a superhero?"
"No, I'm not a magician!"
Saber reached out and touched Jason's messy hair. He stretched out his other hand, and a blue flame rose appeared in his hand. It was lifelike, like a living flower. He handed it to Jason.
"But I can do what a magician can do. Today is your 11th birthday. My subordinate ruined your birthday party. This is my apology."
"Happy birthday, child."
Jason looked at the blue rose in front of him, and his mouth opened in surprise. He took it in his hand and said to Saber very politely, "Thank you, sir. This is the best birthday I've ever had!"
"Oh, no, no, no!"
Saber winked at Jason mysteriously. "There's a wish for your birthday. What's your wish? If it's not so difficult, I can help you fulfill it."
"Can I ask for the planets in the sky?"
Jason held the Flaming Rose lovingly and looked up at Seiber. Seiber shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course, but that thing will be ugly here. Are you sure you want the Star?"
"No, no, no!"
Jason hurriedly shook his head. He looked at his uncle Hal and said loudly, "Then let my uncle become a superhero!"
The child made a few decent fighting moves.
"Just like Batman! Oh, yes, it's best if he can be like Overlord! I like both of them the most! "
"Hmm?"
A happy smile appeared on Seiber's face. He patted Jason's head and said, "Don't worry.
"Go, go home with your parents! I've ordered a big cake for you. Go and enjoy your birthday party. "
He glanced at Hal and said to Jason,
"I promise, when you see your uncle tomorrow, he will be a superhero. Of course, he still needs more training!"
Jason and Hal's relatives left under the escort of the members of The Devil Gang. Only Saber and Hal were left in the silent port. He looked at the Green Lantern who stood silently in place. He reached out his hand and held his chin.
"I'll be honest, Hal. I need you to take me to Planet OA. Your legion's combat power is not very good, but it's good at hiding. My soldiers have searched more than 3,000 galaxies, but they couldn't find your base, so I need you to do me a favor."
"What if I say no?"
Hal looked at Saber in front of him. Just from the aura that Saber inadvertently leaked, he could tell that the Overlord in front of him may only need one fist to finish him. But this was not a reason for him to surrender, especially after suffering an unimaginable setback, he felt that he should not admit defeat like this.
"Well, so you're making a dangerous attempt, right?"
A blue ring of ashes appeared in Seiber's eyes. His eyes met with HAL's, and he said in a playful tone:
"I heard that the Green Lantern Corps only selects people who have no fear in their hearts to become their soldiers. I'm also very curious, as the first earthling to be selected in tens of thousands of years, are you really fearless?"
"Let's take a look!"
"Buzz!"
There was a flash of light in front of Hal's eyes. In a trance, he returned to a memory he would never forget. It was when he was a child, his father, the best pilot in Seaside City, tested a new aircraft. He stood in the crowd blankly, looking at everything in front of him from a third person's point of view. He was still wearing the strange combat uniform, but no one paid attention to him at all.
He saw himself as a child, still wearing his father's leather jacket, standing on the side of the runway and cheering for his father.
And his father, the face that had not faded at all in his memory, was entering the aircraft, and gave a thumbs up to his childhood self.
"No! Don't go! "
Hal shouted loudly. He would never forget everything that happened that day. The plane would have an accident when it took off, and his father would have died in a sea of fire. However, no one heard his voice, and no one paid attention to him.
He could only watch in despair as the plane taxied on the runway and took off. At this moment, he frantically beat the Willpower in his body, but … there was no reaction. All of this was just his memory, nothing more.
The plane took off just as he remembered. The fuel tank exploded, and his father struggled to control the plane to land. When he was a child, he rushed toward the plane and saw his father climb out of the cabin. He knew that in the next second, the plane would explode, and everything would repeat itself. Nothing could change all of this.
But the second the sparks flew, the entire world came to a standstill.
The burning flames, the crowd's fear, and the cries of their own childhood all stopped at the same time.
"Oh, this is your fear …"
Seiber's voice rang in his ears. Hal opened his eyes and saw Seiber standing beside the plane. Seiber turned to look at him and asked, "What's the matter?
"Do you need me to help you seal this memory? You see, it's still affecting you. You can't overcome this fear. Even if you choose to become a pilot when you grow up and face all kinds of dangers, you still can't overcome it. It's like a nightmare that haunts you. "
"You are not fearless, Hal. Your will is not as strong as you think. The ring chose you because you have a possibility!"
Saber's expression relaxed. "As long as you can overcome it, or even forget it, you can become a true warrior of will. I also found out …"
He stretched out his finger and placed it on Hal's father's shoulder. A ball of flame burned on his arm. He looked at Hal.
"Do you need me to help you? It's very simple. Just a light burn … and everything will disappear. You won't remember your father's tragedy. You won't even remember that you have a father … "
"No! Stop! No! "
Hal shouted, "Don't touch my memory! Get your dirty hands off my father! "
Saber moved his burning arm away from Hal's father's memory. He looked at Hal, who had completely broken down.
"I'll take you to OA. I admit defeat. End all of this. Don't torture me anymore!"
