Chapter 418: Hal Has Bad Luck (Part 2)

The operation of the Green Lantern Corps is actually built on a set of permission systems. All Green Lanterns who have obtained the recognition of the Green Lantern Corps can obtain the token of permission, which is the Green Lantern ring.

But there is a threshold for using this permission token. You must have a powerful will to drive the Green Lantern ring and the green light energy. That is to say, not just anyone who picks up a Green Lantern ring can use it.

Generally speaking, even if a Green Lantern loses their Green Lantern ring, it won't cause too much trouble, because the person who picks up the ring has no way to use this ring; they don't have enough will to drive the ring and the energy inside.

But obviously, the current situation is an exception, which has to start from the working principle of the Green Lantern ring.

If a Green Lantern wants to use the Green Lantern ring and energy, they must use their own will to drive it. After sending the command to use it, the Green Lantern ring will judge whether this will is enough to drive it. If it can, then it will start working, which is to transmit energy to the Green Lantern.

The current situation is that when Hal activated the green light energy at the time, he wanted to use teleportation. He sent this command to the Green Lantern ring. After inspection, the Green Lantern ring discovered that he possessed this permission and could use the ring and energy, so it started working.

The energy had already been sent out, covering Hal's entire palm and half of his arm, but just at this time, Aisha bit down.

The reason why Green Lanterns fear the Yellow Lantern is because Parallax was originally stuffed into their lantern furnace, and now, Parallax has not only come out but also turned into a human little girl. Logically speaking, the green light energy shouldn't fear the Yellow Lantern anymore.

But this doesn't mean that the green light energy can pass through the body of another Lantern entity. Aisha bit down on Hal's arm. The green light energy surged to half of his arm, then encountered Aisha's body. Regardless of whether she is a pure human now, at least a certain part of her comes from Parallax. The green light energy couldn't be compatible with the body of the Yellow Lantern entity Parallax, so it was blocked.

The blocked green light energy didn't merge with the Green Lantern, so naturally, it didn't produce the effect Hal wanted.

What's more coincidental is that Hal's action of shaking off Aisha caused the Green Lantern ring to be thrown away, and then it was picked up by Dick.

Dick is not the later Nightwing; he isn't even Robin. He is just an ordinary child going to school, at most knowing a little acrobatics technique. It is impossible for him to have the will to drive the Green Lantern ring.

But as said before, Hal had already sent the command and used his will to unlock the permission to use the green light energy.

That is to say, if the Green Lantern ring is compared to a safe, Hal had already used the password to open its door, but then handed it to someone else. And Dick is the lucky person who picked up the safe. Because the door is already open, he doesn't need to unlock it again and can take the things inside directly.

The only problem is that before Hal threw the Green Lantern ring away, the last command he gave the ring was teleportation, and the first thing Dick did after putting on the Green Lantern ring and receiving the green light energy inside was also teleportation.

Thanks to the Green Lantern Corps' safety measures, which are still considered reliable, the Green Lantern's teleportation ability won't get stuck in a wall. If there is an obstacle in front, it will either pass through it or be slapped against the wall with a "pop."

Dick himself has no way to control this energy, so he was directly slapped against the wall.

Fortunately, the green light energy will provide its host with a layer of full-body energy shield. After Dick was slapped against the wall, he didn't feel pain and wasn't injured, just felt a bit dazed when falling to the ground.

Alfred's face looked even worse.

And reacting even more than Alfred was Aisha. I don't know if she was hurt by Hal's arm-shaking action earlier or scared by the sound of Dick being slapped against the wall, but she froze for a moment, then opened her mouth.

Hal had an extremely bad premonition, and then instantly, this premonition came true.

Under the pitch-black night of Cat Getan, a violent scream, difficult to imagine, was like a thunderclap exploding in the quiet winter, tearing through Cat Getan's night sky—

"Da—ddy!"

At this moment, Batman, who was searching for clues in Cat Getan Cathedral, suddenly stiffened.

Also hearing this sound was Schiller, who had just fallen asleep.

It was already late at night. Even if Schiller was used to staying up late, now was his sleeping time. However, this scream was too familiar, as if it had appeared when the last alien unlucky guy landed in Cat Getan, so it very smoothly woke up the sleeping Schiller.

【Book: *Controller Here*】

After being woken up, he didn't feel angry. On the contrary, like a sower who finally saw the harvest after planting seeds, he was full of the joy of harvest.

The reason he wasn't called a farmer was because although he sowed the seeds, plowing, watering, and fertilizing weren't his business. As for the bread baked from the crops, he still planned to take a bite.

Merkel was woken up by Schiller's bell. When he was called up, his first reaction was some panic. His biological clock told him it was late at night.

Butlers fear this situation the most, because once someone rings the bell in the middle of the night, it means something very urgent might have happened.

Two minutes later, Merkel, dressed neatly and meticulously, appeared in Schiller's bedroom. Schiller was still in pajamas. While taking out a wine glass and a wine bottle to pour wine, he said: "Help me make a call to Wei En Manor..."

Merkel didn't know what to say for a moment. He didn't know whether the point was "Wei En Manor" or "making a call," or whether the point was actually the current environment. He looked up at the clock hanging on the wall, which showed it was 3:30 AM.

A brain that had just woken up from sleep wasn't enough to let Merkel sort out the logic in this. He was even thinking, would this be Schiller expressing dissatisfaction with his work errors?

However, looking at Schiller's serious expression, Merkel could only resign himself to walking downstairs and picking up the phone placed by the stairs.

A hand was placed on the phone that was constantly making a "ding-a-ling" sound. Alfred stood by the phone table, picked up the receiver, and said:

"... Oh, is that so?... Professor Rodriguez heard Aisha's scream?... Yes, I'm very sorry, did it disturb his rest?"

"Yes, yes, she's fine. You know, children in this age group are very prone to nightmares, especially when their father is not returning home at night..."

Saying this, Alfred's gaze fell on Bruce, who was standing by the sofa. At this moment, he was still wearing the Batman suit, but facing the current situation, he didn't plan to act at all.

Dick, glowing green all over, sat opposite the sofa, twitching from time to time, seemingly suppressing the impulse to activate teleportation and slap himself against the wall. Aisha was still wailing. Although she didn't shed any tears at all, she didn't seem to get tired either.

By the phone table, Alfred held the phone, constantly lecturing Merkel on the importance of parenting and parental companionship.

Batman himself couldn't believe that facing the current situation, his headache was much stronger than facing various heinous criminals before.

So, where is the certain Green Lantern who caused all this trouble, or rather, the Green Lantern Hal who lost his green light, now?

He was currently tied to a chair next to the sofa.

Whether a fledgling Green Lantern with green light ability could beat a fledgling Batman was unknown, but Hal without green light ability definitely couldn't beat Batman, so he was tied to a chair, currently looking at Dick with a life-is-meaningless expression.

Batman felt that the best way to solve this situation was still to start with Dick. He turned to look at Dick and said: "Can't you take it off?"

"It" referred to the Green Lantern ring. Dick looked at his hand and said: "No, I can't. I just tried it, no matter how I pull, I can't take it off..."

"It's useless. The Green Lantern ring has a safety lock. If it fell off so easily, wouldn't it be very easy to be ambushed in battle?"

Hal had just finished this sentence when he found Batman staring at him. He understood Batman's meaning and explained: "Parallax... your daughter is truly too special. She must have some way to restrain the Green Lantern ring. I have never seen any Lantern whose ring was pulled off their hand by someone else..."

Batman let his gaze fall on Aisha again. Just as he looked at Aisha, Aisha suddenly stopped crying, then opened her two arms. Batman walked over helplessly and picked her up. Aisha screamed, but Batman couldn't understand what she meant at all.

Dick translated understandingly: "She seems to want me to learn to control this power, but I can't. It doesn't listen to me at all. Oh, here it comes again!"

With a "whoosh," Dick's figure disappeared, followed immediately by appearing in the restaurant next door, knocking over a large pile of dining tables and chairs.

Like the last situation, the green light energy protected his body. The only relatively miserable thing was Wei En Manor's beautiful and spacious restaurant, which was now a mess.

Batman didn't feel sorry for the house, but he discovered that the teleportation distance seemed to be getting farther and farther. If this continued, no one knew whether Dick would be teleported directly into the universe. If that were really the case... Batman looked at Hal again.

Hal shivered and said: "I can guarantee you that when this power exists, he himself won't suffer any harm."

"When I first obtained this power, I once tried to follow a test-flight plane to the sky and then jump down. Even if I fell to the ground from a very high place, I was unscathed."

"Where is the farthest he will be teleported to?"

Hal glanced at Dick and said: "I think the Green Lantern ring might have fallen into a logical error and can only rigidly execute my last command."

"At the same time, the Green Lantern ring's safety lock might have detected that the person using it now is not its owner. Generally, when this situation occurs, the ring will automatically return to the Green Lantern headquarters..."

"The logical error and the safety lock superimposed together, it is very likely that it will take this child and teleport constantly until returning to the Green Lantern Corps headquarters..."

When he said this, Hal felt the temperature in the room drop by several degrees instantly.

"Oh, wait!" Hal immediately tried to remedy it. He said: "You can try to let Aisha take the ring off his hand, just like taking the ring off my hand."

Batman looked down at Aisha. Aisha was biting her finger, looking like she didn't understand. Batman kept staring at her. Finally, Aisha couldn't hold on anymore. She jumped down from Batman's arms and ran to Dick "thump, thump, thump."

However, that Green Lantern ring seemed to have consciousness. As soon as Aisha went over, it took Dick and teleported. Although Aisha's speed was very fast, after all, she was still running with her legs and wasn't as fast as teleportation, so she couldn't touch Dick at all.

After chasing for a while, Aisha seemed a bit tired and stopped in place to pant. Alfred hurried down the phone and walked up. He picked up Aisha and said: "Aisha's exercise volume for today is already enough, or rather, for a child of this age, it's a bit over the limit. She should go back to sleep."

Saying this, he carried Aisha upstairs.

At this time, Batman also couldn't help but press his forehead with his hand. Then, he looked at Hal again. Hal tried hard to think, and said: "I think I have another way..."

Saying this, he tried hard to move his body, turning toward Dick with the chair he was tied to, and shouted at Dick:

"Stay calm! Feel the power in your body, and then try to control it..." ===== CHAPTER 419 =====

"Stay calm! Feel the power within your body, then try to control it..."
