Chapter 415 Hal's Bad Luck (Part 2)
The operation of the Green Lantern Corps is actually based on a system of permissions. All Green Lanterns recognized by the Green Lantern Corps can get a token of permission, that is, a green lantern ring.
However, there is a threshold to use this token of permission. You must have a strong willpower to drive the green lantern ring and the green lantern energy. In other words, not just anyone who picks up a green lantern ring can use it.
Generally speaking, even if the Green Lantern loses their green lantern ring, it will not cause too much trouble, because the person who picks up the ring cannot use it. They do not have enough willpower to drive the ring and the energy inside.
But obviously, the current situation is an exception. This starts with the working principle of the green lantern ring.
If the Green Lantern wants to use the green lantern ring and energy, he must use his willpower to drive it. After sending the command to use it, the green lantern ring will determine whether this willpower is enough to drive it. If it is, then it will start to work, that is, transmit energy to the Green Lantern.
The current situation is that when Hal activated the green light energy, he wanted to use teleportation. He sent this command to the green light ring. After inspection, the green light ring found that he had the authority to use the ring and energy, so he started working.
The energy has been sent out, covering Hal's entire palm and half of his arm, but at this time, Aisha bit him.
The reason why Green Lantern is afraid of yellow lights is that the parallax monster was originally stuffed in their lantern furnace, and now the parallax monster not only came out, but also turned into a human little girl. Logically, the green light energy should no longer be afraid of yellow lights.
But this does not mean that the green light energy can pass through the body of another lantern beast. Aisha bit Hal's arm, and the green light energy surged to the half of the arm and touched Aisha's body. Regardless of whether she is a pure human being now, at least a part of it comes from the parallax monster. The green light energy cannot be compatible with the body of the yellow lantern beast parallax monster, so it was blocked.
The blocked green light energy did not merge with the Green Lantern, so naturally it did not produce the effect Hal wanted.
Even more coincidentally, Hal's action of getting rid of Elsa caused the green lantern ring to be thrown out and then picked up by Dick.
Dick was not the later Nightwing, he was not even Robin, just an ordinary kid in school, at most he had a little more acrobatic skills than other kids, he could not have the willpower to drive the green lantern ring,
But as mentioned before, Hal had sent the command and used his willpower to unlock the permission to use the green light energy.
In other words, if the green lantern ring is compared to a safe, Hal has opened its door with a password, but gave it away, and Dick is the lucky one who picked up the safe, because the door is already open, so he does not need to unlock it again, and can directly take the things inside.
The only problem is that before Hal threw the green lantern ring out, the last command he gave to the ring was teleportation, and the first thing Dick did after wearing the green lantern ring and receiving the green light energy inside was also teleportation. …
Thanks to the Green Lantern Corps' fairly reliable safety measures, the Green Lantern's teleportation ability will not get stuck in the wall. If there is an obstacle in front of it, it will either pass through it or hit the wall with a "snap".
Dick himself has no way to control this energy, so he was directly hit against the wall.
Fortunately, the Green Lantern energy will provide their host with a layer of full-body energy shield. Dick did not feel pain after being hit against the wall, nor was he injured. He just felt a little confused when he fell to the ground.
Alfred's face became even uglier.
And the one who reacted more than Alfred was Elsa. I don't know if she was hurt by Hal's arm swinging action before, or was scared by the sound of Dick's teleportation hitting the wall. She was stunned for a moment, and then opened her mouth.
Hal had an extremely bad premonition, and then in an instant, this premonition came true.
Under the dark night of Gotham, an unimaginable and violent scream, like a thunder in the quiet winter, broke through the night sky of Gotham——
"Dad-Dad!
!
!
!
!"
At this time, Batman, who was searching for clues in the Gotham Cathedral, suddenly froze.
At the same time, Schiller, who had just fallen asleep, also heard the sound.
It was already late at night, and even if Schiller was used to sleeping late, it was his sleep time now, but this scream was too familiar, as if it had appeared when the last unlucky alien landed in Gotham, so it woke up Schiller who was sleeping very smoothly.
He did not feel angry after being woken up, on the contrary, he was like a sower who finally saw the harvest after sowing seeds, full of joy of harvest.
The reason why he was not called a farmer was that although he sowed seeds, he was not responsible for plowing the land, watering, and fertilizing. In the end, he planned to have a bite of the bread baked from the crops.
Merkel was awakened by Schiller's ringing phone. When he was woken up, his first reaction was a little panic, because his biological clock told him that it was late at night.
The housekeeper was most afraid of this situation, because once someone rang the bell in the middle of the night, it meant that something very urgent might have happened.
Two minutes later, Merkel, who was neatly dressed and meticulously dressed, appeared in Schiller's bedroom. Schiller was still in pajamas. He took out a wine glass and a bottle to pour wine, and said, "Please help me call Wayne Manor..."
Merkel didn't know what to say for a moment. He didn't know whether the focus was on "Wayne Manor" or "making a phone call", or whether the focus was actually the current environment. He looked up at the wall clock hanging on the wall, which showed that it was 3:30 in the morning.
The brain that had just woken up from sleep was not enough for Merkel to sort out the logic. He even wondered if this was Schiller expressing dissatisfaction with his work mistakes?
However, seeing Schiller's serious expression, Merkel could only resign himself to walking downstairs and picking up the phone next to the stairs.
With one hand on the ringing phone, Alfred stood by the telephone table, picked up the receiver, and said:
"...Oh, really?... Professor Rodriguez heard Aisha's scream?...Yes, I'm sorry, did I disturb her?"...
"Yes, yes, she's fine. You know, children of this age are prone to nightmares, especially when their father doesn't come home at night..."
As he spoke, Alfred's eyes fell on Bruce, who was standing by the sofa. He was still wearing a bat suit, but facing the current situation, he didn't intend to act at all.
Dick, who was glowing green, sat opposite the sofa, twitching from time to time, as if he was suppressing the urge to teleport himself against the wall. Aisha was still crying loudly, although she didn't shed any tears, but she didn't seem to be tired.
At the telephone table, Alfred held the phone and kept teaching Merkel about parent-child education and the importance of parental companionship.
Batman himself couldn't believe that facing the current situation, his headache was much stronger than when he faced various vicious criminals before.
So, where is the Green Lantern who caused all this trouble, or Hal who lost his Green Lantern, now?
He is now tied to a chair next to the sofa.
It is unknown whether the fledgling Green Lantern with the Green Lantern ability can beat the equally fledgling Batman, but Hal without the Green Lantern ability is definitely not able to beat Batman, so he was tied to a chair, looking at Dick with a look of despair.
Batman thought that the best way to solve the current situation was to start with Dick. He turned to look at Dick and said, "Can't you take it off?"
"It" refers to the Green Lantern Ring. Dick glanced at his hand and said, "No, no, I just tried it. No matter how I pulled it, I couldn't take it off..."
"It's useless. The Green Lantern Ring has a safety lock. If it falls off so easily, wouldn't it be easy to be ambushed during combat?"
Hal just finished saying this when he found Batman staring at him. He understood what Batman meant and explained, "Parallax... Your daughter is so special. She must have some way to restrain the Green Lantern Ring. I haven't seen any Lantern whose ring was pulled off his hand..."
Batman set his eyes on Elsa again. The moment he looked at Elsa, Elsa suddenly stopped crying and opened her arms. Batman walked over helplessly and picked her up. Elsa screamed, but Batman didn't understand what he meant at all.
Dick understood and translated: "She seems to want me to learn to control this power, but I can't. It doesn't listen to me at all. Oh, it comes again!"
With a "whoosh", Dick's figure disappeared, and then he appeared in the restaurant next to him, knocking down a lot of tables and chairs.
Just like the last time, the energy of the green light protected his body. The only thing that was relatively miserable was the beautiful and spacious restaurant in Wayne Manor, which was now a mess.
Batman didn't feel sorry for the house, but he found that the distance of transmission seemed to be getting farther and farther. If it continued like this, no one knew whether Dick would be directly teleported into the universe. If that was the case... Batman looked at Hal again.
Hal shuddered, then said, "I can assure you that when this power exists, he will not be harmed."...
"When I first gained this power, I tried to follow the test plane into the sky and then jumped down. Even if I fell from a very high place to the ground, I was unharmed."
"Where can he teleport to at most?"
Hal glanced at Dick and said, "I think the Green Lantern Ring may have fallen into a logical error and can only rigidly execute my last order."
"At the same time, the safety lock of the Green Lantern Ring may have noticed that the person using it now is not its owner. Generally, when this happens, the ring will automatically return to the Green Lantern headquarters..."
"The combination of logical errors and safety locks is likely to cause the child to continue to teleport until he returns to the headquarters of the Green Lantern Corps..."
After saying this, Hal felt that the temperature in the room dropped several degrees in an instant.
"Oh, wait!" Hal immediately tried to remedy the situation. He said, "You can try to get Elsa to take off the ring on her hand, just like taking off the ring on my hand."
Batman looked down at Elsa. Elsa bit her fingers, as if she didn't understand. Batman continued to stare at her. In the end, Elsa couldn't hold on any longer. She jumped out of Batman's arms and ran to Dick.
However, the green lantern ring seemed to have a mind. As soon as Elsa passed by, it teleported with Dick. Although Elsa was very fast, she was still running with her legs, not as fast as teleportation, so she couldn't touch Dick at all.
After chasing for a while, Aisha seemed a little tired and stopped to catch her breath. Alfred quickly put down the phone and walked up. He picked Aisha up and said, "Miss Aisha's exercise today is enough, or, for a child of this age, it is a bit excessive. She should go back to sleep."
As he said, he carried Aisha upstairs.
At this time, Batman couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead, and then he looked at Hal again. Hal tried to think, and he said, "I think I have another way..."
As he said, he tried to move his body, and turned to Dick with the chair tied to it, and shouted to Dick:
"Keep calm! Feel the power in your body, and then try to control it..."
