Chapter 2881 Jade Prince (Part )
Hal really didn't expect that his other selves in other universes would be in this situation, or he simply couldn't believe that his other selves would be so idealistic.
First and foremost, for a Green Lantern, green light energy is their lifeline. Even if most Green Lanterns don't have the means to crack the little blue man's technique for extracting energy, don't they think about how to avoid being controlled by others to the greatest extent possible?
As a result, most of the Green Lanterns really just flew back to headquarters to replenish their energy.
This really seemed a little unbelievable to Hal, just like a somewhat ridiculous situation he encountered in Mexico - they had food and trucks to transport the food, but no oil.
Oliver led them in no less than dozens of battles for gasoline before he obtained the hardest universal currency in America, oil to drive cars.
This is the most important resource for building a food distribution network. Without oil, nothing can move. Food on one side will rot in warehouses, and people on the other side will starve to death at home.
In Hal's opinion, green light energy is comparable to cosmic oil, and is even more comprehensive and important than oil. However, they from other universes have worked diligently in this position for so many years, but in the end they are still working at a gas station.
They naively believed that the bosses behind the gas stations would really use the oil for free and selflessly fill the food transport trucks to save the hungry people.
Hal couldn't comment on that.
It is no secret that green lantern energy is not really used to maintain cosmic peace, because before the appearance of the Green Lantern on Earth, the Earth was not within the scope of protection, and all Green Lanterns knew this more or less.
But they still didn't take any measures, not even to protect themselves. We have to admit that this level of self-control is indeed noble. Apart from being completely useless, it does deserve the evaluation of kindness.
Even Hal was overwhelmed by what he saw.
There is nothing wrong with the oath. The problem is that the first person to betray the oath was the creator of the oath, whose purpose in creating the Green Lantern Corps was not pure. This really fooled a fool. How could these people let go of such a good opportunity?
Hal didn't need to listen to any Green Lantern to know that if most of the universe continued like this, the Earth would inevitably suffer, because the weak are always picked, and these Green Lanterns who are controlled by the lamps and have no means of counterattack are not the weakest persimmons?
If his universe could really be independent of all other universes, Hal would not be so philanthropic, because people may not understand what they are taught, but they will learn it once they are taught.
But the most terrifying thing is that the connections between the multiverses are very close, and they can even visit each other in some ways. Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels far and wide. A disaster in one universe is likely to spread to many universes.
By that time, it would be useless to just figure out your own little piece of land. If you don't resolve these walking time bombs, sooner or later you will be paralyzed.
The moment he figured out these questions, Hal felt like he was suffering from anxiety.
It’s not that he doesn’t like to use his brain or shirk responsibility, but in this situation, who wouldn’t go to the West to ask for help from Buddha Schiller?
Hal wrote a very long email, and after reading the first two lines, Greedy wanted to prescribe him medicine.
No, there just happened to be an Iron Man and then a Green Lantern. How did my stable career as a psychologist come across these two talented people?
He glanced at Pride who was still in a daze, sighed greedily and resigned himself to finishing reading the extremely long email.
There is not much useful information among them, and most of them are cursing themselves in other universes, and imagining the terrible disasters that may come.
After cutting out most of the useless nonsense, Schiller had a pretty good idea of what Hal was asking for.
Again, it is difficult for a superhero flying high in the sky to give up the idealism he has upheld for half his life. Hal does not have the ability to push everyone into the fields in Mexico, so he does not expect them to wake up overnight.
But Hal feels that there are still some people worth winning over in the Green Lantern group. In addition to the silly and naive Hal Jordan, there are still other veterans.
After initial contact, Hal learned that in some universes, Hal Jordan was not the first Green Lantern on Earth. Before him, there were three predecessors who joined the Green Lantern Team.
Among them, a man named Guy Gardner is the leader of the Green Lantern Guard appointed by the Guardians of the Universe himself. He looks like a powerful agent, but he doesn't seem to be as calm as John Stewart. Although Kyle Rayner is a little eccentric, Hal feels that he is an Ion like himself and is not bound by the Green Lantern, and some of his secrets cannot be seen through.
Joining the Green Lantern Guard can be said to be the highest honor for all Green Lanterns. Hal can see from the three predecessors with this title that the highest honor is well-deserved and there are no ordinary people among them.
And because of their close contact with the Guardians of the Universe, they seem to have a different view of these little blue men. They are very cautious and their use of green light energy is exquisite. They are possible partners to be won over.
Hal had heard of their names in his own universe, but most of these senior Lanterns were stationed in some dangerous sectors and would not show up unless there was a disaster that threatened the universe. Hal had not been in the center of power for very long, so this was the first time Hal had seen them.
And what Hal didn't want to talk about was Green Lantern Sinestro, who caused a huge chaos as soon as he showed up.
Sinestro from a certain universe was a Green Lantern, and for some reason he was counted as Earth's Green Lantern and stuffed into their team, which led to the fight they just had.
It was only when Hal's long-time idol, Alan Scott, stepped in to quell the chaos that Hal decided that this old veteran was also a worthy target.
Hal did his best to identify several teammates who might be useful in a short period of time, but he still had no idea how to make them realize the seriousness of the problem, so he had to ask Schiller for help.
After reading Hal's words, Greedy realized one thing: DC's superheroes are really serious.
The Green Lanterns really take being Green Lanterns seriously; they gain the power of the Green Lantern, put on the rings, and act like superheroes, as if this is a road with no forks and they can only go all the way to darkness.
But if you suddenly jump out of this framework like Hal in Schiller's universe, you will find that you are the normal one, and these people who are addicted to role-playing are crazy.
It is energy that gives them superhero status, just as it is money that gives rich people privileges.
Normal people would always think about how to make money instead of making more contributions to the company with a fixed salary, especially when the company is neither formal nor reliable.
However, the Green Lanterns are like a group of employees who are willing to work hard and give everything for their boss. Greed makes people doubt whether the green light energy has any brainwashing function.
That’s money! Money right next to you!!!
If you say that this money really exists in the national treasury and has made some great contribution to all living beings in the universe, then you may have to go through a bit of a moral struggle before you can move it.
But in fact, Guardian of the Universe is just a private boss, and it is not a large company that can achieve a balance of power and responsibility and mutual supervision. It is more like a small workshop that acts on impulse and treats people differently.
And it's not just that his behavior seems unreliable, but he has a long history of bad deeds and nothing he does is reliable.
If you don't make this money, then you are sick? !
But Greedy also knew that Hal was right, and it was impossible to wake up these superheroes who were too immersed in the role overnight.
But his opinion is different from Hal's. Although it is indeed difficult to make them suddenly wake up and unite against a common enemy, sometimes it is not necessary for them to have a spiritual awakening to take meaningful actions. Appealing to their emotions and reasoning is one way, but Schiller still prefers to use coercion, inducement, cheating and deception.
He thought about it, and began to type line after line on the reply email, stopping from time to time to think, and then continuing to write. Soon he had written a long and eloquent article and sent it.
Hal sat on the roof, looking at the plan sent to him by Greed. To be honest, he was not surprised at all, because the main purpose of this plan was still to sell green light energy.
Although it's cheesy and old-fashioned, Hal has to admit that it is indeed useful, because there are too many Green Lanterns who cannot get energy replenishment in the fighting world, and taking advantage of others in distress is always the best way to make a fortune.
Using his surplus Green Lantern energy to win the support of other Green Lanterns does seem to be the best method at the moment. Although it is somewhat similar to kidnapping, the situation is special and he can't care less.
But the main problem is that in the plan Schiller gave him, selling energy was not a moral low point - Schiller asked him to poison the energy he sold and then sell the antidote again.
When Hal saw this, he didn't want to watch any further. It wasn't that he thought the plan wouldn't work, but his moral bottom line didn't support him to continue watching.
But the style of greedy plans has always been like this. As long as you can break through the moral bottom line and read on, you will find that this is highly feasible.
The so-called poisoning sounds incredible, but it is actually possible, because for the Green Lantern, the most potent poison is actually the yellow light energy.
But Hal also controls a parallax monster, but Elsa calls him Uncle Jordan and loves to eat Jordan's secret grilled fish the most.
Parallax's power comes from fear, and her father is now gathered with countless sources of fear.
Therefore, as long as Bruce and his daughter can be contacted, this poisoning plan is highly feasible. Even if it is a little more ruthless, it is not impossible to kill all the Green Lanterns.
Other Green Lanterns or Ion might be able to save one or two people, but among all the Green Lanterns present, only Hal has enough green light energy to save everyone, which would easily make him the leader of all Green Lanterns.
Once he gets the leadership power, Hal will be able to hold on to this position securely, and then establishing a multiverse Green Lantern League will no longer be a luxury. After that, even with a little bit of effort, he will be able to organize a group of awakened people.
But the last person who tried to kill all Green Lanterns for his own power was Sinestro, the most evil traitor of the Green Lantern Corps.
And Hal vaguely feels that if he takes action, he will do better than Sinestro, which may also mean that he can gain more power than Sinestro.
Hal closed the chat interface, took a deep breath, and looked at the endless desert in the distance.
For the sake of cosmic peace, he must really clean this room.
