Chapter 288 Sinestro's Bad Luck

In the dim afternoon, the weak sunlight of Gotham shines into the office through the gap of the curtains. Schiller is lying on the office chair and taking a nap. Victor at the table next to him is reading a paper, but he is also dozing with his head supported by one hand. Anna from the Department of Mathematics has fallen asleep on the table.

The teaching work at Gotham University is very leisurely. Almost all teachers have the habit of taking a nap. Several teachers in the office next door have directly bought reclining chairs. After Schiller gradually adapted to this slow-paced life, he would also choose to take a nap after lunch.

Just as he was frowning and about to turn over, suddenly, a violent scream resounded over the entire Gotham City like boiling water, and Victor was awakened directly. Schiller opened his eyes in confusion. He and Victor looked at each other, covered his eyes and asked: "...What did she yell? ...Dad?"

Instantly, Schiller woke up, paused on the chair, then stood up with the help of the handrail, walked to the window, fiddled with his hair, looked in the direction of Wayne Manor, and said to Victor: "Please ask for leave for me, I have something to go out "Have you forgotten? We don't have a principal now, not even an acting principal, so there is no need to ask for leave." Victor stretched and said, "Go ahead. It just so happens that your afternoon class has been changed to my chemistry class. I still have two experiments to do." Schiller walked out of Gotham University and wanted to fly directly to Wayne Manor in the form of gray mist to take a look, but the gray ring on his hand suddenly became hot. Schiller followed the guidance of the ring and came to the sky above the earth in the form of gray mist. He found that there was a yellow lamp stove floating there. Schiller circled the lamp stove twice, then touched his chin and said to himself: "... As expected, he came, but he brought the lamp stove with him. This is a pleasant surprise." Soon, his figure disappeared. After a few minutes, Schiller's figure appeared again next to the yellow lamp stove above the earth, but this time, he was holding another yellow creature in his arms. Pikachu was pulled out of his nap, his four short legs drooping sleepily, and he kept fluttering in Schiller's arms. He said, "What on earth are you doing? Why did you bring me to this terrible world again?!"

Schiller used both hands to pull Pikachu's armpits, made him face the yellow light stove, and said, "Aren't you always hungry? I found a good place for you to eat. Do you see that thing in front?"

Pikachu rubbed his eyes with his short hands, staring at the yellow light stove with one eye, one big and one small, and then sighed with all his strength and said, "I won't ask what this thing is, because Because I know it must have a complicated background that can keep you talking for two hours. I only have one question, why are you so sure that I can eat here? "

"Because you are yellow."

"... Then what?"

"It is also yellow."

Pikachu's two short hands hugged his arms like humans, with a face full of question marks. Before he could question Schiller's illogical theory, Schiller explained: "It may sound ridiculous, but I think that in the mysterious world, colors have very important symbolic meanings. Mysterious objects of the same color must have some kind of correlation..."

Pikachu opened his mouth, but didn't know how to refute. Schiller turned him around, made him face him, and continued to pull his armpits, looked him in the eyes and said to him: "If you are full, can you stop destroying my cakes, soda crackers and coffee powder? You eat more than ten pounds of cake a week, is that reasonable?"

Pikachu waved his hand and said: "It's not just me, Peter also eats a lot..."

"Well, I can indeed absorb external energy and convert it into my own, and then use it to release skills, but this thing that looks like a fire hydrant and the lower half of a toilet, I have never seen it before, I'm not sure what I'll become after I absorb the energy in it..."

"It doesn't matter, don't you know me yet? I stole electricity not for my own use, but to make others without electricity..."

"Oh, why didn't you say that earlier? I'm familiar with this matter. Come on, throw me in."

Schiller did as he said and threw Pikachu in from the entrance above the lamp furnace. Perhaps because of Sinestro's modification, this lamp furnace floating in the universe is larger than the one depicted in the comics in Schiller's memory. It is about half a person's height, and the opening on it is just enough for Pikachu to get in.

After Pikachu went in, it was like a tropical fish thrown into a fish tank. The two yellow colors almost merged into one. Not long after, the light around the lamp furnace began to slowly condense inward, and then gathered more and more, until it completely shrank into the inner wall of the lamp furnace. In the center of the lamp furnace, there was a dense little yellow dot like the sun, which absorbed all the energy around it.

Then, the energy attached to the outer wall of the lamp furnace began to gradually disappear, and the entire lamp furnace began to fade slowly. The highly concentrated yellow light energy gathered into a small ball, becoming more and more concentrated in the center until it was completely absorbed by the figure with a tail and long ears in the middle of the lamp furnace.

Suddenly, Pikachu's figure flashed and appeared directly outside the lamp furnace. Schiller looked at his current state, squinted his eyes and said: "It seems to have changed..."

Pikachu looked at his body. Now, his body became translucent, and there were some dots of light in the middle connected together, as if he had become a kind of star spirit.

Then, under Schiller's gaze, Pikachu began to grow bigger and bigger, until it expanded into a giant Pokémon several dozen meters high, and began to emit rich yellow energy.

A thin line of energy connected him with the Lantern Furnace, just like when Parallax Monster became the Lantern Beast of the Yellow Lantern Corps, Pikachu had a special connection with the Lantern Furnace and the Lantern Ring.

After Parallax Monster went public through a backdoor listing and reincarnated as an Order creature, Pikachu absorbed almost all the energy of the Yellow Lantern Furnace, and filled the vacant position of the Yellow Lantern, becoming the new Lantern Beast of the Yellow Lantern Corps.

The source of cosmic fear, the Yellow Lantern Beast, and the Gigantamax Pikachu were born!

Soon, Pikachu's figure began to shrink again, and then gradually turned into a solid body, but there was still some yellow energy around his hair. He began to fly freely in the universe. He flew to Schiller and said to him: "This energy is quite strong, but when I compressed it all into my body, I felt that some inexplicable connections were established. What is that?" Schiller, who watched the whole process, also understood that Pikachu seemed to have become the new light beast of the Yellow Lantern Corps. He briefly introduced Pikachu to the concept of lantern rings and lantern groups in the DC world. Pikachu rubbed his cheek with his short hands and said: "The group of people holding yellow lantern rings will not come to me and ask me to go back with them as a mascot, right?" "You What are you afraid of? If they come, I will take you to the other side. " Schiller picked up Pikachu, looked at him and said, "Rather than looking for you to go back, I think they may... not want you to appear in the Yellow Lantern Corps."

"Why?"

Schiller recalled the original style of the parallax monster in his mind, and then thought about the style of other lantern beasts depicted in the comics, and then looked at the Pikachu in front of him who was almost fat like a ball because of eating too much cake. He said: "Because the style is different, it can't be hard melted."

Schiller held Pikachu and planned to return to Earth. Before leaving, he took a look at the yellow lantern furnace that had been sucked dry. The rich yellow had completely dissipated, and the whole furnace looked dim and old. It seemed that it would not be restored for a long time.

At the same time, in Wayne Manor, looking at Batman who suddenly appeared behind Elsa, Sinestro shot a yellow light without thinking.

Batman wanted to dodge directly, but Aisha was still beside him, so before dodging, he picked up Aisha and threw her to Dick. Just like that, his movements were a little slow, and the yellow light hit his arm.

Then... nothing happened.

Batman turned his head and looked at his arm, then at Sinestro, Sinestro looked at Batman's arm, then at the ring on his hand, and both of them were stunned at the same time.

Sinestro didn't believe in evil and hit Batman with another yellow light. Batman still didn't react. Sinestro continued to push the power of the yellow light, forming a huge ball of light, and smashed towards Batman.

Batman, who was suspicious by nature, did not relax his vigilance because of Sinestro's ineffective attack before. He still rolled and dodged, and was only touched by the edge of the light ball, but the light ball suddenly stopped before landing, and then flew towards Batman.

Sinestro stretched out his hand and said, "...Wait! Come back!"

The speed of light was so fast that in an instant, the yellow light ball merged into Batman's body, and then one of his arms lit up with yellow light. At this time, Sinestro, who was chasing the light ball, arrived just in time. Batman didn't think about it and punched him, and then...

Sinestro flew at least ten meters away.

Batman looked down at his fist emitting yellow light, and then looked at Sinestro who was lying on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up. He suddenly understood something.

How could Sinestro, who got up from the ground, endure such an insult? After he got up, he looked down at the ring on his hand and found that the light was a little dim. That was because the previous fight with Hal almost exhausted the energy of the yellow lantern ring on his hand.

But Sinestro was not panicked at all, because he had the foresight to bring the lantern furnace to the earth. At this time, the yellow lantern furnace should be floating above the earth.

Sinestro stretched out his hand towards the sky, and then shouted loudly: "Fear is the source, Sinestro's authority!"

"...Fear is the source, Sinestro's authority!"

"...Sinestro's authority!"

"Authority! Authority!...Authority???"

Across from them, Batman, Dick, and Aisha stood in a row from tall to short, watching the middle-aged man in a yellow tights across from them, making a strange gesture with one hand on his waist and one pointing to the sky, repeating the same sentence over and over again.

Batman opened his mouth, but before he could shout out Alfred's name, the old butler appeared behind Batman. Batman said to him hesitantly: "Otherwise... call Arkham Asylum, I think he seems... No, not seems, he should be a mental patient..."

Sinestro, who had been unable to summon the yellow light energy, was also confused. He took his hand back and looked at the ring on his hand. The logo of the Yellow Lantern Corps on it kept flashing, but he could not connect to the lamp furnace.

Although Sinestro was an alien, not every alien was a Kryptonian who could take off on the spot. All of Sinestro's superpowers came from the yellow light ring. Without the yellow light energy, he had no way to escape the earth's gravity.

At this moment, Aisha swung her short legs and ran between Sinestro and Batman who were confronting each other, then pointed a finger at Sinestro, looked back at Batman, and shouted: "Dad! Wow! Wow!!"

Batman moved his wrist, and Sinestro took a step back and said: "Wait! You can't... I am..."

Before he finished speaking, accompanied by Aisha's excited applause and screams, a fist as big as a sandbag flashing yellow light appeared in his field of vision.

Ten minutes later, Schiller landed on the lawn of Wayne Manor with a yellow-haired mouse. He looked at Sinestro, who was lying on the lawn of Wayne Manor like a puddle of mud, and said to him: "Sinestro, right? I've heard of you for a long time. Now, we can talk..."

A few minutes later, in the basement of Wayne Manor, Batman was tying Sinestro to a chair. Schiller pulled Pikachu's tail out of Elsa's mouth. While asking Elsa to spit out the mouse hair in her mouth, he said: "In the dream before, the reason why I let the parallax monster that got into the eggshell of the Laughing Egg in was because of the , just want to use it to fish. "

Batman heard this, he looked at Sinestro and said: "You just want to trick him here?"

"Yes, Parallax Monster is the Yellow Lantern Corps's Lantern Beast. If he disappears, the Corps Leader will definitely come here himself."

After finally separating Aisha and Pikachu, Schiller walked over and sat opposite Sinestro. He said to Batman: "Aren't you curious about these so-called Lanterns and Lantern Corps?"

Batman didn't say anything, but his attitude was tacit. What Schiller didn't tell him was that he tricked Sinestro here for another reason.

Before. Schiller made a mistake in his prediction about the Laughing Egg because he didn't expect the Yellow Lantern Corps to appear so early. The reason why he thought the Yellow Lantern Corps didn't appear was from the origin story of Sinestro, the Corps Leader of the Yellow Lantern Corps.

In the comics, Sinestro was originally the most powerful Green Lantern in the Green Lantern Corps. He was hailed as the strongest Lantern in history. However, he was later discovered by Hal because he used the energy of the Green Lantern to control his hometown privately. In the end, the two broke up. Sinestro rebelled against the Green Lantern Corps and asked the Weapon Master to build him a Yellow Lantern Furnace and a Yellow Lantern Ring. From then on, he became the leader of the Yellow Lantern Corps.

There is an important node in this story, that is, the breakup between Sinestro and Hal. After the breakup, Sinestro went out to work alone.

But now Hal has only been a Green Lantern for a short time. He is just a rookie. He has no reputation in the Green Lantern Corps. He doesn't know Sinestro at all and has no intersection, but the Yellow Lantern Corps appeared in advance.

After this prediction error, Schiller has been thinking about why this happened.

If it is a butterfly effect, it doesn't make sense. At present, the impact of Schiller's crossing is limited to Gotham. Even if it is said to be a big deal, it only affects the East Coast. To be more exaggerated, it only affects the earth, and has no intersection with outer space, the universe, and the Green Lantern Corps.

Even if Schiller, the butterfly, flapped its wings, the storm could not have blown into the Green Lantern Corps so quickly, which means that Sinestro's early rebellion has other hidden secrets.

Faced with this uncertainty, Schiller's first reaction was of course to nip it in the bud, but before that, he had to figure out why Sinestro became the head of the Yellow Lantern Corps in advance.

So, when he saw the parallax monster wandering at the door of his thinking tower, he had an idea that as long as he could hold the parallax monster, he would not be afraid that Sinestro would not come, and it happened that the parallax monster was thinking about getting rid of the poor and stingy Sinestro and hugging Batman's thigh.

One person and one monster hit it off, and just like that, the parallax monster found a new father for himself, Schiller caught the fish he wanted to catch, and Batman had an extra daughter. This wave was a win-win for all three.

The only loser, Sinestro, who was now struggling in his chair, shifted his gaze from Batman to the front. He saw that Schiller, who was sitting behind the table, and Aisha, who was standing on the table, both smiled at the same time, which made his back shiver.
