Chapter 370: Darkseid's Daughter, Causes and Consequences (Please Read On)
When the outsiders left their hiding place under the order of Night Owl and set out with the Secret Society of Super Villains to rescue Nightwing who was being hunted by the Court of Owls, there was silence in the Owl Cave, with only Night Owl sitting there.
He sat alone on the chair, like a silent statue.
Click.
Click.
Then, he heard the sound of footsteps on the ground. Night Owl, who was proficient in detective skills, knew it was a woman as soon as he heard the sound, but the footsteps were so heavy, like a living obsidian knocking on the smooth floor, giving people a sense of heavy pressure for no reason, like Darkseid, making people creepy.
Who is she?
Who can appear here?
Appear in this hiding place that Night Owl carefully prepared for himself, face to face with him?
In short, Night Owl looked at the woman who walked out of the shadows, and then watched her stand in front of him.
"You pay too much attention to Dick Grayson--"
"--Grell."
Night Owl interrupted Grell's unfinished words.
"I know my limits."
The woman whom Night Owl called Grell was dressed in a typical Amazonian outfit, but what attracted people's attention the most was her skin, which was not so obvious, but still shone with a black luster like obsidian, and her blood-red eyes.
Those were a pair of bloodthirsty, cruel eyes without pupils.
Night Owl looked at Greer fearlessly:
"You think I don't find it strange? You think I haven't thought about the possibility you thought about? But instead of leaving him outside and making Batman more suspicious of us, it is better to keep him under our control."
Night Owl said: "A controlled spy, nothing is more harmless than this, we can also give Batman false information to mislead him."
Then Night Owl's eyes wandered, pausing in the direction where the outsider just went out: "Don't worry, our cooperation will never be discovered by Nightwing, I even hid it from Alfred." (Note: The outsider is Alfred, the butler of Earth 3)
"It's better." Greer looked at Night Owl for a while, then said: "You'd better have some idea in your mind, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen."
"Of course. If he finds you, I will break his neck with my own hands." Night Owl said: "In my whole In this plan, you are the only one who can make Darkseid and the Anti-Monitor go to war. You will be the last trump card hidden, a non-existent ghost, and no one can survive after knowing your existence. ”
He said: "I will never let my emotions affect my judgment."
He said so, and then saw Grayer slowly retreating and disappearing into the darkness:
"Whatever, you'd better not let me do it myself, Night Owl..."
She said: "Otherwise, I don't mind sending you a ride when I do it. Maybe this sounds like a threat, but you know, I'm sorry, it's not something I can control to spare you."
"After all... I am the daughter of Darkseid, bloodthirstiness is engraved in my essence, and I can't escape it. Want to eliminate it..."
"Unless you murder Darkseid completely!"

Sinestro left Mongo's small meeting.
He ignored the Sinestro Corps members who bowed to him. He didn't think highly of these guys he recruited. They were all scum and trash, but what Sinestro wanted to create was an era greater than the Green Lantern Corps.
He walked down the corridor. This was a dark dungeon. The Kovaders of the antimatter universe had used this place to imprison prisoners from their planet, but now it was where people who opposed the Yellow Lantern Corps were imprisoned, including of course...
"Amon Su, how is your aunt?"
Sinestro quickly found a member of the Yellow Lantern Corps standing at the door.
He had purple-red skin and a burly figure. From the last name, it can be seen that this person has a great relationship with Sinestro's former mentor, the legendary Green Lantern Abin Su who entrusted the Green Lantern ring to Hal Jordan.
That's right, Amon Su is Abin Su's biological son, and Abin Su's sister Arlene Su is Sinestro's wife, so Sinestro's wife is the aunt of the Green Lantern in front of him.
Although Amon Su is Abin Su's son, he has lived his whole life under the shadow of his greatest Green Lantern father.
Many years ago, when Amon Su had just come of age, Amon Su had tried to get his father to use his connections to get a Green Lantern ring from the Guardians of the Universe so that he could also become a Green Lantern.
But such behavior was rejected by Abin Su without hesitation. He scolded Amon Su and asked him to continue to exercise his body and temper his spirit.
He told Amon Su that he was not ready to become a Green Lantern.
At first, Amon Su did not blame his father as many people thought. He believed from the bottom of his heart that he could not become a Green Lantern, so he doubled his efforts to hone himself.
Yes, his father was the greatest Green Lantern in history. How could his judgment be wrong?
But as time went on, Amon Su missed the Green Lantern ring again and again in his constant efforts and failures.
He eventually fell and became a member of the "Black Ring Crime Group", a criminal group in the universe. And his father Abin Su did not know all this. He was busy dealing with the prophecy of the Blackest Night, and he was with Atrocitus, the Lord of the Red Lantern, every day. In the end, he even took him to Earth, which eventually led to his own death.
- Then, when Abin Su died, the most devastating and unacceptable thing for Amon Su happened:
The ring of his father did not choose himself, but chose an earthling named Hal Jordan. He took his father's ring for himself and took away the glory that should have been inherited by him.
He hated Hal Jordan madly, but deep in his soul, Amon Su knew that he could never manipulate a green lantern ring. He didn't have enough willpower. He knew that his father was right.
But now it's different. Even if he can't become a Green Lantern, he might... still be a Yellow Lantern.
"Lord Sinestro." Amon Su didn't try to get close to Sinestro, but said in a serious tone: "Lady Alinsu still doesn't want to eat. I've been looking at her. She..."
"Go on." Sinestro guessed what Amon Su didn't dare to say. His face turned ugly.
Amon Su took a deep breath.
"Lady Alinsu wants to commit suicide. I have stopped her many times."
He said very quickly: "And I have injected enough nutrient solution into Lady Alinsu. Her life is not a problem. She is just mentally traumatized."
Sinestro's temples were throbbing. Amon Su knew that this was a manifestation of the other party's anger.
He knew that his uncle was an unprecedented iron-fisted figure. The abuse and denial of him by others were like a breeze to him, and it was not worth remembering at all. However, only when people he cared about, such as his aunt Arinsue, opposed him, would Sinestro really be furious.
"Lord Sinestro..."
"No, Lord Sinestro called me uncle." Sinestro looked stern: "Come on, accompany me to see your aunt and see what she wants to do."
The two of them walked a short distance ahead and soon appeared in a luxurious prison. Even in such a dark dungeon, the room was cleaned up very cleanly, and the walls and floors were all covered with thick soft devices, even toothbrushes were soft, the purpose was to prevent prisoners from committing suicide.
Sinestro's eyes jumped when he saw these arrangements, and the anger in his heart couldn't help but burn more vigorously.
Amon Su followed behind him with a bitter face. These were all his work. After all, she was his aunt. He couldn't use the green lantern ring to hang the other person up like a specimen when the two sides disagreed like Sinestro did.
Their marital conflict has far exceeded the normal scope and has become a battle of concepts and life ideals, which is not a normal person can mediate.
At this time, Alin Su was lying quietly on the bed like a lifeless corpse.
"Alin."
With a creak, Sinestro opened the door. He stood in front of his wife, looking down at her from top to bottom.
Seeing his living wife, Sinestro suddenly restrained his anger.
He said softly:
"Amon told me that his aunt didn't want to eat and has been relying on nutrient solution to maintain her life these two days. So I came to see you... I know I'm sorry for you, there is something wrong with our relationship, but you shouldn't punish yourself like this."
Alin Su on the bed did not respond.
She let out a sobbing sound as if she was about to die.
"Arlene..."
"Don't call me that, don't talk to me like that!"
She suddenly exploded: "You dictator! The Green Lantern Corps will punish you."
"Listen to me, Arlene Su..."
"You hurt all those who oppose you! You use your force against innocent civilians, you destroy government agencies, and replace the will of the group with your own will!"
"Arlene..."
Arlene Su held her head and screamed loudly:
"Oh my God, Sinestro, this is not peace at all but a complete dictatorship! You even created the Yellow Lantern Corps and destroyed the order of the universe. You are a complete lunatic and villain!"
"Abinsu didn't punish me!" Sinestro also roared, and Amon Su next to him turned his head, not knowing whether he should leave at this time or continue to stand here.
"Before telling Hal Jordan about the matter, I told Abinsu what I did!"
"He didn't support you!"
"He didn't oppose me!" Sineto roared, "Abinsu acquiesced to my actions. Everything I did was for my planet..."
"When Abin saw what you did, you were not as crazy as you are now. I once believed you, Sinestro. I explained to the people and government agencies that I deceived them. I deceived them that everything Sinestro did was for the better of this planet, but you just led all of us into the abyss!"
Sinestro's face was livid.
He knew what his wife said was right.
At that time, although Abinsu did not clearly oppose, he did not clearly support it. He just seemed a little ambiguous, and Sinestro's behavior at that time was much lighter than it is now.
But even if the behavior at that time was not as extreme as it is now, what he did was completely in violation of the Green Lantern Code, but he was already dissatisfied with some of the actions of the Green Lantern Corps, so he did it without hesitation according to his own ideas.
Abinsu did not report him to the Green Lantern Corps. Such behavior gave Sinestro a wrong estimate and made him make a wrong judgment in the end.
Hal Jordan's dissatisfaction with the Guardians also made Sinestro think that the other party shared the same ideals as himself, so he told Hal Jordan about the situation in his jurisdiction just like he told Abinsu. He thought that the other party would support him and would not interfere at the worst, but he did not expect that he would report it directly.
Sinestro did not dare to let Hal go to complain, but he could not make up his mind or had no ability to kill Hal.
Hal Jordan's power was beyond imagination. Sometimes, although everyone was a Green Lantern, the gap in strength between Green Lanterns was greater than the gap between species.
Sinestro originally thought that he could easily control Hal Jordan, but after actually doing it, he found that it was not the case at all.
Although the other party had not used the Green Lantern Ring for as long as himself, so he was defeated by himself, he was extremely resilient. It was easy to defeat him, but it was difficult to kill him.
For Sinestro, this was very troublesome.
In the comics, Arin Sue died on the spot in the rebellion caused by Hal, which caused Sinestro to lose his mind. He attacked Hal Jordan at all costs, wanting to kill him wholeheartedly. However, his desire to kill not only failed to catch Hal Jordan, but also let him escape.
Hal Jordan ran back to Oa, and then called the entire Green Lantern Corps. No matter how powerful Sinestro was, he was captured. This is most likely one of the rare events in the history of DC comics that the Green Lantern Corps not only did not die, but also successfully achieved its goal. At the same time, it also started the epic feud between Sinestro and Hal that lasted throughout the entire Lantern Corps.
However, since Arin Sue did not die in this timeline, Sinestro's sanity was online, so he did not let Hal Jordan run away like in the comics, and let him run back to Oa to bring a siege army, but trapped him, which bought himself a lot of time, so that things went in a completely different direction.
After realizing that the matter was exposed, Sinestro made two preparations. He first trapped Hal, and then prepared to escape to the antimatter universe with the entire planet, but before that, Lantern No. 1 found him.
That's why he was wearing the yellow lantern ring at this time.
