The Holy Walker's departure was as quiet as his arrival. Other than Professor Charles, no one else knew about the visit of the Blue Lantern Corps. After the Holy Walker left, Saber sat alone in the Saber villa. He looked at the Blue Lantern Ring on the table and hesitated.
This ring came too easily, so easily that Saber felt like he was in a dream.
However, the mysterious Holy Walker revealed a strange message to Saber in his words.
The Black Lantern Ring … This ring found by Gao Tianzun seemed to hide a terrible secret. He knew very little about this secret. And Saber suddenly remembered that when Gao Tianzun gave him the Black Lantern Ring, he seemed to emphasize that this ring was the most dangerous of all the Lantern Rings.
He told Seiber not to touch it until he knew for sure that he had some powerful symbol of death.
"A symbol of death?"
Saber narrowed his eyes. He stretched out his left hand and a ball of flame appeared in his palm. It was scorching hot, but its core was so cold. It was the eternal flame that represented life and death. The symbol of death inside this thing had been absorbed by him. But to be honest, Saber was a little hesitant about whether it would work or not.
"The Darkest Night … What does this mean?"
Saber suddenly realized that he knew too little about the Black Lantern Ring in his hand. And according to the Holy Walker, the appearance of the Black Lantern Ring did not seem to be a coincidence. Every time it appeared, it meant the appearance of the Darkest Night.
"It seems that I can't touch you easily before I really understand these things."
Saber's fingers jumped on the table. The moment his fingers left the table, five rings were placed neatly in front of Saber.
The green light represented will, the red light represented hatred (anger), the yellow light represented fear, the blue light represented hope, and the black light represented death.
"Four more to go!"
Saber took a deep breath. He put the Black Lantern Ring in a special box and threw it into the fan. He suddenly stood up. On the four fingers of both hands, the four Lantern Rings were shining brightly.
When the power of the emotional spectrum appeared, it didn't affect Seiber much. However, with the power of the 4 precepts, his steadfast spirit began to waver. Even though it didn't affect his mind, Seiber would often fall into the pursuit of certain memories in his free time. Sometimes, he felt that this kind of experience was quite fun, but sometimes, it would be a waste of time to recall these memories.
But this was an unavoidable process. Just like a new car needed to be used, Saber and the Lantern Rings needed to match each other. For a real warrior, his understanding of his weapon was as important as the sharpness of the weapon itself!
"The Purple Lantern Rings, the Lantern Rings of Greed, the Lantern Rings of Compassion, and the Lantern Rings of Life …"
Seiber stood on the balcony and looked at the darkening sky. He couldn't help but sigh.
"It's so far away."
— — —
"Bang!"
Drax, whose whole body was wrapped in a blood-red light curtain, roared and waved his fists. As if he was fighting for his life, he punched Saber's chest heavily. With the blessing of the Red Lantern Ring, the power of each punch of the Destroyer had exceeded his original limit, at least twice.
He could easily smash the head of an interstellar monster, easily lift an assault ship, and in his extreme state, he could even face the bombardment of a starship head-on and use his fists to blow away the cannonballs that were about to explode.
The Red Lantern Ring was the most powerful in the Seven Lantern Corps, and it was also the most obvious enhancement to the user.
"Ahhhhh!"
Drax was like an enraged beast. His eyes glowed red as he punched wildly, leaving two deep footprints on the alloy floor under his feet. Reason was leaving his mind little by little, and the frenzy of battle was stuffed into his mind until he completely became the embodiment of anger.
On the other hand, Syber didn't dodge at all. He allowed the fist that could smash through the deck of a starship to land on his chest. However, upon closer inspection, a faint green shield of light was sandwiched between Syber and Drax's fist, blocking the frenzied attack.
The light shield as thin as a cicada's wing showed incredible defensive power. At least with Drax's destructive power, there was no way to destroy this light shield in a short time. Seeing that Drax was about to fall into the control of anger, Saber raised his left hand and pressed it on his shoulder. The light of the Blue Lantern Ring on his ring finger flashed, and the anger in Drax's eyes was quietly extinguished at this moment.
His entire being woke up from the madness of fighting to the death.
"Phew …"
The Destroyer took a few steps back and reached out to take the towel thrown over by Quill. He wiped the sweat on his face and looked at Saber with some confusion.
"Sir, your Will Shield has become stronger. Yesterday, I only used 20 punches to destroy it, but today …"
"Yes, its toughness has at least doubled."
Seiber nodded as he stretched his body. "Not only that, but my control over willpower has also become much smoother!"
His fingers moved, and a green rope of light condensed into a warhammer in front of him. He then smashed it towards Drax. Drax's body was immediately shrouded in an angry light, and he crossed his arms to block the warhammer that was descending from the sky.
"Ah!"
But the power from the war hammer was beyond imagination. The balance of the Destroyer's body was easily destroyed at this moment, and he fell to the ground.
"Bang!"
Drax's right fist hit the ground and blasted a dent in the alloy floor of the starship deck. Only then did he barely stop his body from sinking. He looked up at Saber in surprise.
"It's not inferior to your full blow in your normal state! The dissipation of the energy projection has completely disappeared! "
"And this!"
The light of the Red Lantern Ring on his right hand flickered. Just like Drax, Saber's body was also wrapped in the Flame of Anger that could increase his power to the extreme. But when the flame was ignited, his eyes were clear, and he was not affected by the will of anger at all.
This scene made Drax and Quill's eyes widen.
Because as long as there were emotions in life, it was impossible not to be affected after wearing the Red Lantern Ring. Saber had frankly said before that even he would be affected by anger after activating the Red Lantern Ring. It was just that he could maintain his consciousness to the greatest extent. But once the battle became too intense, he could lose control at any time.
This was the biggest drawback of the Red Lantern Ring. Once one's emotions were out of control, both the enemy and himself would be hurt. Even Hulk and Drax, who had bathed in the Blood of Lenk, could only ensure that they would not completely fall into the abyss of anger in extreme anger. It could not guarantee that the consciousness of the enemy could distinguish between the enemy and himself. It was completely an uncontrollable bomb.
"Swoosh!"
Saber's anger avatar dispelled. Looking at the doubts of his subordinates, he raised his left hand and the blue Lantern Ring shone brightly.
"The Lantern of Hope. I have indeed underestimated the power of hope. In terms of amplification, the blue Lantern Ring will not even increase the user's power by a little. But if it is combined with other Lantern Rings, it will definitely exert more than five times the power."
He shrugged and patted the Destroyer's shoulder.
"In the future, with me around, you can completely release yourself in battle. Under the influence of the blue Lantern, you will never lose your mind. Tsk tsk, it's scary just thinking about it. A completely sober Berserker …"
He breathed a sigh of relief and said to Drax,
"You will become the enemy's nightmare. I have already seen it all."
"I won't let you down!"
Drax clenched his fist, and the cracking sound from his knuckles represented the warrior's will. This also made Saber very satisfied.
The Destroyer did not disappoint the power that Saber gave him. He relied on himself to get the Red Lantern Ring's recruitment. In fact, in the Red Lantern Base Camp, he even fought with the current Red Lantern King, the Hulk, in extreme anger. Although he lost, he also gained Hulk's approval. The Hulk personally threw him into the Blood of Lenk.
Drax had great potential. His journey had just begun. His failure now did not mean that he would fail in the future. Saber believed that one day, he would become a terrifying military humanoid weapon like the Hulk.
But now, he needed to grow.
After testing the power of the Four Lantern Ring, Saber walked out of the combat room with satisfaction. He planned to go to New York. Now, the tracking of the lost gem had been ongoing, but there was no effective news yet. This made Saber faintly worried. Although the current situation on Earth had eased, it was more like the calm before the storm. Once something happened, it would be earth-shattering.
"The treatment of the religious refugees has now become a matter of great concern to the big shots."
Quill, who had been triumphant recently in New York, flicked his hair. You couldn't expect a prodigal son to suddenly restrain himself. In fact, he had recently made new friends. In the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood, he often hung out with a scumbag named Constantine. The two of them became close friends, and last night, they had a killing spree in a nightclub.
Quill expressed that he loved his current life, but as the new representative of the Overlord in the modern world, Quill still carried out his job well. On the train to the modern world, he whispered to Seiber, "I'm sorry, but I'm sorry.
"Ultron's plan was revealed, and as a result, Director Fury and General Zheng Xian attracted terrible abuse. Those representatives called them" murderers "and" executioners. "Under the serious influence of public opinion, they did not attend the meeting recently. And those members quarreled for several days before they just came up with a preliminary constitution."
"Oh? What do you mean? "
Saber flipped through the magazine in his hand and asked casually, "What bad idea did they come up with?"
"Uh, in fact, they don't plan to do anything."
Quill said with a smile, "They want to maintain the original state, only the most basic supply of materials. They even support the religious refugees to establish their own country, but they will not allow them to cross the border at will. In other words, they intend to let those poor people fend for themselves."
"Hmm … Smart approach!"
Saber's fingers that were flipping through the magazine paused for a moment, then returned to normal. He said softly,
"At this point in time, the interior of Europe is like a powder keg. Any help from the civilized world will be regarded as torture and revenge by those refugees who have suffered from serious" persecution paranoia ". It's like a big bomb that will explode at the slightest touch. The best way is to do nothing."
"Yeah."
Quill suddenly remembered a sentence said by a guy at the meeting yesterday:
"Faith can't be eaten. A national system built on lies will fall apart at the slightest touch. When the civilians are hungry, they will naturally vote with their feet …"
But this clever young man immediately changed the topic. He looked at Saber.
"But what if they are internally stable? Overlord, what if they really form their own entity without any external interference? "
"Pa!"
Saber threw the magazine in his hand aside and stretched comfortably. In response to Quill's question, he said casually,
"Then I'll be the first to welcome them back to the civilized world, Quill. Whether or not they have faith has never been a problem. We can slay evil gods, so why should we be afraid of a few mortal fanatics? If they can really rebuild a country with their own strength as you said, even if this country is full of hatred for the civilized world, even if they want to overthrow the order of civilized society, we will accept them with patience and time. "
"That proves that they have completely gotten rid of the influence of the residual divine power and have begun to deal with difficulties with collective will. It means that they have become ordinary people who can think again, and not lunatics who talk about faith all the time and will pull out a knife to kill people in the next second."
Saber breathed a sigh of relief.
"It is impossible for normal people to be friends with lunatics. If they want to climb out of that quagmire, they first have to prove that they are not lunatics, and the onlookers also have to agree that they are not lunatics … that's all."
These words made Quill thoughtful. No wonder Professor Charles, who had always appeared as a saint, agreed to this proposal at the end of yesterday's meeting. It was not that they were cold-blooded, but the big shots seemed to have already figured out these principles. Thinking about it carefully, in fact, the Ultron plan proposed by Fury and Zheng Xian was just a derivation of this principle to the management level of the refugees.
"In the future, you will represent me in dealing with those old foxes, Quill."
Saber closed his eyes and said softly, "You have a divine body, and your lifespan is at least 1,000 years. Listen to me, temporarily put aside pleasure, read a few more books, and learn more things. Earth is indeed very small compared to the South Area, but the danger here is definitely not less than the South Area … the most important thing is to stay away from Constantine!"
Saber said with a face full of disgust, "You may not know … that guy is a double-plug!"
Quill's expression became horrified at this moment, but before he could speak, the communicator on the table in front of Saber rang, and a gentle voice came from it.
"Sir, we found the greedy one!"
