Chapter 4020

Their plan succeeded, although the target was not Batman. Actually, it's about the same. After all, they have to return to the same base. If Batman can detect the abnormality, he can definitely see that there is something wrong with Hal.

Steve didn't quite agree with this plan at first. After all, no matter what, the crystal is considered an artifact. Throwing it to the opponent like this really has the suspicion of aiding the enemy. But Charles soon convinced him: "Think about it, if this were a good thing, we wouldn't want it, and Schiller would want it. But we previously indicated that we could cooperate with Tony for research, Tony refused, and Schiller didn't express his position, which proves that this thing is really useless."

Steve thought about it and it was true. Schiller is best at turning waste into treasure, and he hangs "garbage is resources in the wrong place" on his lips every day. If he is not interested, then this thing is probably really useless.

Moreover, this thing is unique in that its functions sound very strong, and its shape is also very bluffing; it looks like an incredible thing at first glance. Even if Batman studies it thoroughly and can activate it, he will never use it easily. He is just here to train troops, not some terrorist; why would he want to destroy the universe?

Can't use it, can't return it, and have to bear the risks and curses that this thing might bring. It can only be said that no matter where he goes, Batman can encounter dilemmas where he is blocked at both ends. Joker is still chasing me.

Let's talk about the situation on the field. Hal actually noticed something. Because when he came out from the other side of the portal, he felt that his energy had suddenly decreased by a large chunk.

It wasn't the energy he was currently using, but his stock. He brought plenty of energy this time, but as a result, he only teleported once, and it emptied more than half. Hal's heart skipped a beat instantly.

No? What's going on? Didn't I just take someone through a portal? How could it spend so much energy???

Hal knew that, generally speaking, the greater the mass of the object carried, the more power it would consume. But they were just two people. Could it be that this Green Lantern has something special?

While Hal was using Green Lantern energy to rescue the wounded, he checked his physical condition. But after checking for a long time, he didn't find anything special. He checked his equipment again and didn't find any extra things. This is really strange.

The main universe Batman might have seen him not moving for a long time on the monitor, so he asked: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. The portal I just built might have had some problems." Hal finally decided to attribute this matter to the rush of saving people, which caused the portal to have problems. He said, "I consumed most of my energy; I might need to use your energy to replenish it when I go back."

"No problem," the main universe Batman said, "if you really have no energy, then withdraw."

Hal shook his head; he wasn't completely out of power, there was still plenty of energy available. He settled the wounded first and then threw himself back into the battlefield.

At this time, the Green Lanterns had already pressed the defense line inward a bit. Hal rushed to the very front, preparing to launch another assault to beat the Captain Americas in front back.

He raised his hand, and a bow and arrow formed by Green Lantern energy appeared in his hand. He had learned a few tricks from Oliver, and now his archery was superb. This kind of energy arrow is perfect for hitting Captain America.

Hal raised his hand and shot; two energy arrows hit Captain America's shield. Although they failed to break through the opponent's defense, they forced the opponent back dozens of meters due to the huge impact.

Captain America's mobility is not strong; moving in space basically relies entirely on the thrust provided by the shield. Although these dozens of meters are not far, it is enough for him to fly for a while. Hal used the same method to shoot another Captain America.

When Captain America was forced back, the Green Lantern could take the opportunity to press forward, and then eat away at their tactical space bit by bit.

Just when Hal drew his bow and nocked an arrow again, wanting to condense Green Lantern energy into an arrow, he suddenly discovered that his Green Lantern energy had been exhausted.

This time Hal was really full of question marks and couldn't figure it out. Although he didn't have much energy left, it was no problem to shoot a few hundred arrows. How could it be gone again?

Although Hal was puzzled, he still had to retreat quickly. Because in a while, he wouldn't even be able to maintain his personal shield, and wouldn't he be beaten black and blue by the enemy?

He retreated to check his energy consumption, only to find that his colleagues around him also retreated, all checking their power rings and power batteries, also with puzzled faces.

"That... I don't know why, but my energy consumption is a bit fast; I'm almost out of power."

"You're out of power too? Me too. It's really strange; could it be that the number of times we were hit today was too many, causing the shield to consume power too fast?"

"I'm out of power too; who among you has extra power batteries? If this continues, we won't be able to fight..."

The Green Lanterns retreated frequently, which naturally attracted the attention of their teammates. The main universe Martian Manhunter turned back and asked: "What's wrong? Are you out of energy?"

After receiving an affirmative answer, the main universe Martian Manhunter frowned. He compared the intensity of this battle with the previous one and found that it was not at the same level at all. The previous battle involved materializing spaceships and fighting back and forth with the Asgardians, and they still had energy left when they retreated. How come in today's battle, they were out of power as soon as they entered the field?

The main universe Martian Manhunter suspected that they hadn't charged well, but he was embarrassed to say it, so he could only say to them: "Retreat a little further, don't let your shields be broken."

Now this is the only way. Although the Green Lanterns who retreated were unwilling, they also knew that if they had no energy and still crowded forward, they would be dead for sure. Hal even said directly: "Let's pool our energy and open a portal to go back and recharge; maybe we can still catch the last wave."

The Green Lanterns felt that this was indeed the case; if they had no energy and couldn't get on the field, it would be better to go back and recharge to catch the second half. So they pooled their energy, opened a portal, and went back.

The main universe Batman felt that something was wrong and wanted to stop them from coming back, but didn't expect the Green Lanterns to move very fast, and they were already back above Apokolips.

They flew back according to the original plan, but didn't expect that when they flew to the Apokolips shield, they were bounced away at once.

"What's going on?!" Hal couldn't help but frown and said, "Don't we have whitelist permissions? What the hell is Darkseid doing?!"

The main universe Batman didn't know what was going on either, so he contacted Darkseid. As a result, Darkseid's reply to him was that there was no problem at all, but the Green Lanterns couldn't get in no matter what.

The main universe Batman couldn't help but suspect: could it be that Darkseid played some tricks?

Darkseid also discovered the abnormality very quickly on this side, but what he discovered was not that the shield identification system had a problem, but that the shield had been subjected to a fierce impact. This kind of impact almost broke the shield in one blow.

"Batman!!!" Darkseid appeared in the command center and roared at Batman, "What's going on?! Others have already hit the door, and you're still sitting here?!!"

The main universe Batman looked at him with some doubt and said: "Hit the door? Who hit the door?"

"The Apokolips shield has been subjected to a strong impact; isn't that the other side hitting over?!"

"You are the master of the Apokolips domain; you are invincible in the Apokolips domain. Who exactly hit over, you can see for yourself, instead of coming to find me."

Darkseid took a deep breath, felt it, and then his expression sank sharply.

"Green Lantern," Darkseid said, "Green Lantern is impacting the Apokolips shield. Make them stop immediately, Batman!!"

The main universe Batman was even more puzzled and said: "Why would Green Lantern impact the shield? They are on the whitelist and should be able to fly in directly; why would they attack your shield?"

"I'm afraid you have to ask yourself about this? Batman?" Darkseid's face became more and more gloomy. He felt, could it be that Batman knew Mephisto had come to find him, so he planned to strike first?

The main universe Batman also had suspicions in his heart: could it be that Darkseid was preparing to tear his face off?

Although the two are currently in a cooperative relationship, this alliance is not solid. If Darkseid found a better ally, he would definitely be abandoned. This scene today might be self-directed and self-acted, taking the opportunity to make trouble.

The main universe Batman took a deep breath and decided to prioritize the overall situation. He immediately said to the communicator: "Hal, don't come back yet; I'll find someone to send you energy."

Hearing this, Hal also stopped his movements. And the main universe Batman immediately went to find the Green Lanterns who were left behind and let them send power batteries to Hal and the others. Because he was worried it was Darkseid's trap, the main universe Batman had to send a few more Green Lanterns over.

At the same time, in the prison of the Apokolips base. Goat hooves stepped on the smooth and cold floor, and the black long horns reflected a faint cold light. Schiller, disguised as Mephisto, smiled at the person in the bars and said: "I said, the guards would leave soon. Thinking of me now?"

Star-Lord was clinging to the bars and looking out, discovering that the Green Lantern energy outside had indeed disappeared. He swallowed and said: "What did you do to them?"

"Rather than worrying about them, it's better to worry about yourselves. Aren't you leaving yet?"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Rocket!" Star-Lord picked up Rocket Raccoon, and then pushed awake Gamora who was still sleeping on the side. Groot and Drax also climbed up in a hurry, wiping the drool from their faces. Star-Lord cut the bars with the laser knife he had hidden, and ran out sneakily.

"Don't forget what you promised me." Schiller's voice sounded in Star-Lord's ear, and then dissipated.

Apokolips is Darkseid's domain; logically speaking, every move here would be discovered by him. But Darkseid is now full of vigilance and suspicion, repeatedly pondering the possibility of Batman suddenly turning against him, and has no time to care about any prison.

And the main universe Batman shouldn't have transferred the prison's guard strength either, but he was too suspicious of Darkseid. After all, whether it was the Green Lantern suddenly losing power, or not being able to enter Apokolips, and Darkseid claiming that someone was attacking Apokolips, everything looked like the prelude to turning against him. He had to be on guard.

The two suspected each other, busy fighting wits and courage with each other, and didn't notice at all that the Guardians of the Galaxy had already run away, and even drove away a spaceship from Apokolips.

Schiller stood on Apokolips, watching them leave, then looked into the distance at the skyline, looked in the direction of Darkseid's palace, and said softly: "If there is no demand, create demand. You have no choice, Your Majesty."

"What did you say?!" The main universe Batman looked at the Flash and said, "The Guardians of the Galaxy ran away?!!"

He turned his head sharply, staring at Darkseid behind him, no longer concealing the heavy coldness and killing intent in his eyes, and his low voice echoed in the room: "What explanation do you have, Darkseid?!"

?? Stirring up trouble
