Chapter 469 The Guardians' Retreat
"Well!"
After losing the protection of the Green Lantern Ring, Sinestro, exposed to the vacuum, felt his entire chest cavity spasming, knowing that the air in his lungs was being drawn out.
Being so close to the toxic sun Solaris, the dangerous heat and radiation were scorching his skin, and would soon destroy him further.
Fortunately, at the last moment, Batman, who had been watching from afar, arrived and used his Green Lantern ring to create a protective barrier, shielding Sinestro.
Having shaken off Sinestro, Ganther didn't say anything more, but hurriedly tried to hold off Superman, but then he saw a bright green light shining behind him out of the corner of his eye.
hum!
This commotion could only be caused by the giant green-light planet Mogo.
Just when Ganther thought that Mogo's laser was meant to intercept Superman, he didn't expect that a giant beam of light would shoot out from behind him. Mogo's all-out light of will swept directly at himself and Solaris.
At the same time, Superman once again bypassed Solaris's outer energy shield and crashed into its core.
Click!
As Solaris was gathering its power, the flames surrounding it suddenly stopped under this pincer attack, and the red sunlight dimmed.
However, Solaris's fault tolerance mechanism is extremely strong. Under such an attack, it completed the restart within a second. The gravity weapon was activated instantly, and the reactor restarted immediately threw Joey, who was still preparing to throw another punch, out from the vicinity of the core.
Having been thrown out of the poisonous sun, Joey realized that he couldn't completely destroy Solaris in one blow for the time being, so he changed his target and charged towards Apasa.
Since we can't solve the problem of the toxic sun, let's solve the problem of who controls it first!
Thinking this, Joey threw a punch and knocked out one of the opponent's loose front teeth.
"You!" Apassa was furious. He raised his hand and pointed, unleashing a bolt of cosmic energy like lightning that sent Superman flying.
Having lived for so long, he has certainly fought life-or-death battles. In the great wars of ancient times, he suffered wounds far more severe than these.
He was simply furious that times had changed, and the Guardians no longer took action themselves, allowing a mere Kryptonian to act so arrogantly in front of him!
But to the guardian Apasa's surprise, his finger strike, which was enough to annihilate most of the creatures in the universe, had little effect. Superman was pushed back several miles by the impact of the cosmic energy before regaining his footing.
Despite enduring this devastating blow, Joey remained calm.
He only felt the impact; having already endured too many blows and accumulated too much resistance, he didn't feel any of the power Apasa had anticipated.
Without thinking too much, Joey charged forward and unleashed punch after punch, high damage with his left punch and high damage with his right punch, leaving no opening and giving the little blue man in front of him no chance to activate Solaris.
Just as Apasa was being overwhelmed by sheer numerical superiority, Ganther was locked in a standoff with the planet Mogo: "Why?"
Sinestro's betrayal was somewhat expected, given the man's long-standing ulterior motives; however, the hostility from Planet Mogo was completely unexpected: "You should know this is the only way!"
Planet Mogo had already accepted this plan before setting off, so why did it suddenly change its mind here?
According to the guardians of the universe, they should abandon emotions and make decisions based solely on reason.
But Mogo saw something different: "One was blinded by anger, while the other had lost all compassion."
Mogo's voice resonated throughout his entire planet, filled with disappointment: "Perhaps the greatest Green Lantern of all time was right, you have begun to fall."
Before he came here, no one told him that the price for extracting the Spirit of Existence was all living beings on Earth.
Mogob, being a planet itself, understands how difficult it is for a planet to nurture life, just like any other being in the universe.
Even if the Guardians have to make a difficult choice, as Superman said, it's not the last moment yet, is it?
Until the very last moment, there is still hope. How could they be so simplistic as to conclude that these two Earths are destined to collide and destroy each other?
Besides the Green Lantern Ring, Joey also saw two other rings on Planet Mogo: a Blue Lantern Ring from the Holy Walkers and a Green Lantern Ring of unknown origin.
While it's true that the Blue Lantern Ring, representing hope, was left with Mogo by the Guardian Ganther, the Green Lantern Ring has a different origin.
There were many Green Lanterns involved in handling the Sector 666 massacre, and Sinestro was not the only one who gained something extra in that place of right and wrong in the eyes of the Guardians.
Seneca's gain was the suppression of Atositas and the acquisition of the prophecy about the "Flashpoint" from the latter.
Also a member of the Green Lantern Corps who annihilated the mechanical hunters in Sector 666, Abin Sue discovered a beam of blue light there—the origin of the first Blue Lantern Ring.
After careful study, Abbin Sue discovered that this light, though of the same origin as the green light, had a different effect, representing the blue light of mercy.
Even the most vicious criminal can be forcibly awakened by the blue light of compassion, turning them towards good.
The noble-minded Abin Sue realized even earlier than Sinestro that the Guardians might be unreliable, so he kept this discovery a secret and turned it into a secret weapon to deal with the Guardians.
After several clashes with the Guardians over the matter of the Spirit of Existence, he anticipated what might happen and directly handed over the Blue Lantern Ring to Mogo, the only person he trusted.
This secret was completely buried with the sudden death of Abin Su. To this day, Planet Mogo is considering whether this is the moment that Abin Su once foresaw, and whether the time has come for the Blue Lamp Ring to reappear in the world.
I advise you not to act rashly.
As Mogo was pondering, a voice came from space; it was Batman speaking using his Green Lantern ring.
He hadn't focused all his strength on combat, and with his injuries still lingering, Apasa was completely suppressed by Joey. Right now, the only one who could move was Ganser.
The words "Do not act rashly" were naturally spoken to the guardian, Ganther.
"Back when you threatened to destroy the entire Earth, I had already transmitted all the footage back to Earth, and I haven't stopped since—now all 70 billion people on Earth know what you're planning to do."
"7
After saying this, Batman showed the Green Lantern ring on his hand to Ganser: "Billions of people have discovered that they are under a life-or-death crisis—you should know what I mean."
After sensing from afar, Ganser discovered that the lamp ring in the other party's hand was not obeying his commands.
This is a green lantern ring that wasn't made by the Guardians of Oa!
That means Superman's side could bypass the Guardians and create the Green Lantern Rings on their own! And it might not even be just Green Lantern Rings!
The Guardians formed the Green Lantern Legion because the Light of Will is relatively the safest and most suitable, not because they only know how to make Green Lantern Rings.
If they can create green light rings, then other colors of the emotional spectrum are not a problem for them.
If there were a yellow light ring opposite them at this moment, the fear that the billions of people on Earth beneath their feet, who already know their planet is about to be destroyed, could unleash would be immense.
The guardian Ganther shuddered at the thought.
One Superman is troublesome enough, but if he's also burdened with a super yellow light, they'll probably both be done for before the Kryptonians who are being held back even arrive!
Ganther understood that they had underestimated the power of the Earth side, and at this point, this special operation was already a failure.
Despite his reluctance, Ganser had no choice but to retreat in defeat.
