American comics: What kind of evil intentions could Batman have?

Chapter 233 Green Lantern Sinestro, Yellow Batman, Arrival

Chapter 233 Green Lantern Sinestro, Yellow Batman, and the Approaching Enemies

In the vast universe, a green light flickers, illuminating the silent darkness.

A red-skinned, pointed-eared male alien flew silently through the vast darkness. His full name was Tal Sinestro, from Sector 1417, and a member of the Green Lantern Corps.

That's right, the Green Lantern Corps.

You know, those official descriptions of the Green Lantern Corps:

"The Green Lantern Corps is a police force commissioned by the Guardians of the Universe to maintain cosmic order. Its members are Green Lanterns. Green Lanterns use their lantern rings as weapons to fight evil and uphold justice."

But Seneca knew that the seemingly righteous Legion actually had unknown darkness and secrets, didn't it?

"Why wasn't I informed immediately, Guardian?"

At that moment, he whispered a question about the ring. The Green Lantern ring wasn't just the Green Lanterns' most powerful weapon; it also possessed the ability to communicate over vast distances across the universe. Sinestro was currently conversing with the Guardians of the Universe—

They are a group of little blue people from the planet OA, the maintainers of cosmic order, the founders of the Green Lantern Corps, a group of beings who have lived for billions of years, are immortal, and possess extraordinary intelligence and power.

"You are currently engaged in combat with a mechanical hunter, and we do not wish to distract you."

"Ridiculous. When have I ever been distracted?" Seneca frowned, his deep red cheeks as cold as ice.

A meteorite was flying in from not far away, but he didn't even flinch.

With a deafening roar, the meteorite shattered upon impact with his protective shield, without slowing its speed in the slightest.

The ring shimmered faintly in the darkness, conveying the voice of the guardian of the universe:

"Indeed. Your performance record far surpasses that of your colleagues. The chaos that once plagued your sector has now been almost completely wiped out, and you have been hailed as the greatest by many."

"……Yeah?"

Sinestro's brow furrowed even deeper. Despite having just learned of the death of his friend and brother-in-law, former "Greatest Green Lantern" Abin Sue, it did not impair his judgment in the slightest.

Although the Guardian's voice remained as emotionless as ever, this time, he detected a hint of deliberate praise in the Guardian's tone.

This is very abnormal. For billions of years, the Guardians have long since abandoned their emotions; they are emotionless beings.

It should have been.

"That's why I'm asking you to risk your life on Earth. Once there, you need to contact Abin Sue's successor, Hal Jordan, and together investigate the details of Abin Sue's death."

Sinestro remained expressionless: "As for legitimacy, Salak did not transmit the official orders to my Lamp Ring, Guardian."

The Salak he was referring to was the Green Lantern of Sector 1418, whose seniority within the Legion was second only to Sinestro and the deceased Abin Sue. He was a Green Lantern with four arms and an insect-like appearance.

"This mission is known only to the two of us, and you can call me Ganser."

Senesto stopped in his tracks, almost in shock.

"Ganser? Why do you have a name when all the other guardians don't?"

"That way you will understand that it is me."

"For Green Lanterns to team up would violate your territorial rules," Sinestro said with a hint of sarcasm. "That's the prohibition you made to prevent Green Lanterns from uniting against you."

"I am asking you to break that order—for the sake of your good teacher and friend."

"Alright then, Ganser."

Senesto said:

"I'm heading to Earth now."

……

……

……

My name is Athositas. My story is complicated.

I was once an avenger. My homeland was destroyed by the machine hunters under the command of the Guardians of the Universe. I rose up in rebellion and became a prisoner.

But the blood magic led me to give a prophecy, and it was this prophecy that caused the world's greatest Green Lantern, Abin Sue, to disobey the Guardians' orders and take me away from Ismoth, the planet that imprisoned me, and bring me to Earth.

This is exactly what I wanted.

I turned on Green Lantern Abin Sue and killed him when he landed on Earth.

Yes, it was all part of the plan.

In the leaping, surging firelight, Atositas stood before a campfire in a mountain forest somewhere on Earth, with several tents and several corpses lying dead with their eyes wide open beside him.

He threw all the corpses into the campfire and then began to cast blood magic.

This magic was a specialty of his hometown, and it was with this magic that he once fought against the Green Lantern Corps, attempting to avenge his hometown, which had been destroyed by the Guardians of the Universe.

Athositus opened his sharp teeth.

He crouched down in front of the campfire, bathed in the flickering flames.

"Burning blood... Crimson fury..."

He pulled out a rib from the corpse, letting the still-burning blood drip onto the ground, and then slammed it back into the fire.

"Taken from the still-warm bones..."

Then he opened his mouth and tore his tongue apart with his claws.

"Deep-seated hatred consumes my very being..."

He spat a mouthful of blood into the flames.

"To pave the way for your demise!"

Sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle!

The flames suddenly surged, and a skull, its flesh and skin completely burned away, seemed to come alive, rising into the air along with the flames. Its jawbone trembled incessantly, emitting soft crackling sounds. On the skull's forehead, a line of red characters appeared.

"This is the possessor of that power. My divination was successful."

Blood kept flowing from the corner of Atocitas's mouth, and the firelight was reflected in his pupils.

"William Hand"

……

……

……

Louisiana.

Belreve Superhuman Prison.

"No! No! No! You can't lock me up here! I'm going to chase magic, magic! Black Adam promised me he would teach me magic..."

Peng!

Before Dr. Sivana could finish speaking, he was grabbed by the shoulders by several strong prison guards and forcibly thrown into a cell.

"Stop talking nonsense and stay quiet. You've broken the law. Stop thinking about magic and think about your sentence. Why can't you accept reality? We even have to force you to wear prison clothes. Is that really necessary?"

The guards walked away talking, activating the energy shields and various suppressors in the cells before they left.

"Hey, I think this guy is just an ordinary person, I don't know why he's locked up in such a high-class cell..."

"Who cares? We're just here to work. What business is it of ours? Nobody cares about him. This guy is not worth mentioning."

"No! No! That's not how it is, please..."

Dr. Sivana knelt at the door and pounded on it desperately, but no one paid him any attention.

He touched his right eye, trembling. A lightning bolt-shaped scar ran through the upper right corner of his eye, making it glow blue.

This is the scar left on him when he released Black Adam, caused by the backlash from the forbidden magic of that place. It is also the closest connection he has to magic.

"The door...the door is wide open!"

He stretched out his hand towards the door, attempting to cast a spell: "Open the door!"

Nothing happens.

Dr. Sivana didn't know if it was his own fault or the cause of the suppressors.

He just kept trying.

"The doors are wide open! The doors are wide open!"

Useless.

He collapsed to his knees, utterly abandoned by the world.

A surge of rage, a fury rising from the depths of his heart: "You have to let me out! I can't live without magic!!! That power!!! That power!!! It should belong only to me!!!"

However, after the extreme anger, all that remained was emptiness, so Dr. Sivana eventually curled up in the corner of the cage.

But just then, Dr. Sivana heard a voice.

"Admirable determination, Thaddeus Sivana."

Dr. Sivana suddenly looked up and around, thinking he was hallucinating.

"I've been observing you and the magic that's infecting you. It's devouring your body, but it can't devour your mind. Let's have a quick exchange..."

Dr. Sivana finally turned his head and saw a tiny worm on the windowsill.

"We only have a short period of time to be alone."

"Who are you?"

People call me the Meditation Mite. You and I can be the best kind of friends.

……

……

Lucius sat in his office chair, with an image of Batman displayed in front of him.

The other party was currently in a place resembling a chemical plant, operating a large number of machines, seemingly producing something.

But Lucius knew this was just the lower level of his lab, and that the things Batman made were strange...

It was a huge pile of yellow weapons.

Um, what he means is that Batman is using a huge amount of dye to turn a lot of guns, cannons, and power armor yellow.

"I really don't understand what this means. Batman, you talk like a riddle-maker," Lucius said.

"You say these things are important, but no matter how you look at it, they're all just plain yellow paint."

"Being painted yellow will make someone's magic ineffective? That's ridiculous."

He said, "I just can't imagine it. It's neither scientific nor magical, although I know nothing about magic."

As he spoke, he continued working on his tasks while chatting with Batman, grumbling:

"I can understand if you ask me to prepare more Red Sun weapons."

He dragged the mouse across the computer screen twice.

"But you want me to build a device that works in conjunction with the abilities of the Weather Wizard and the Mirror Master to completely strip sunlight from an area?"

He rubbed his chin: "This is insane! Preventing Kryptonians from getting stronger by sunbathing? But what's the point? Oh, so you're going to replace yellow sunlight with red sunlight and just flood it in, huh? Good idea, that's way more deadly than a simple Kryptonite weapon. You're the more vicious one."

"I can't ignore such a comment," Chen Tao said.

"I'm a good person, that's something the whole world knows."

He lifted a bat-shaped airplane upright and stuffed it directly into a yellow paint bucket, turning its entire appearance yellow. Then he stuffed dozens of missiles into the paint bucket, the primary target being lethal doses.

"But frankly, I don't understand," Lucius said. "Even though we've known each other for so long, and your preparations have always come in handy, I'm still not quite sure why you're going to go to such lengths this time."

He said, "Is it to deal with the Kryptonians? But I think Supergirl is pretty good, even if you're going to do something to her—"

Lucius held up two fingers and hooked them above his head like a rabbit, then drawled, "The 'necessary insurance measures' are still a bit excessive. That silly girl, her Kryptonian blood is as pure as it gets. A few Kryptonite stones would be enough to take her down. There's no need for any machine that can inject the red sun into an area."

Lucius said, "Is it to deal with Cyborg Superman? But that will only weaken his organic body. You know, his Kryptonian blood isn't pure, and more than half of his body is completely mechanical."

As Lucius spoke, he met Batman's gaze through the screen. He quickly waved his hand, then turned his chair around: "Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore. Batman doesn't want people to know why he did what he did."

"Actually, it's not just that."

Chen Tao hesitated for a moment, but finally revealed a little: "I'm just preparing for possible problems."

"What other problems could there be?"

Lucius said, "Now that Superman has lost his powers, the only Kryptonians we can find are Cyborg Superman and Supergirl. Do you still think there's anything wrong with them?"

As he spoke, he complained, "To be honest, I think Supergirl is much weaker than Superman. The Red Sun Zone's power is not very effective against Mecha Superman. It might be okay against Superman, but against Supergirl? I think it's a complete waste of her talent."

Then he saw Batman staring at him without saying a word.

"Hey, seriously? It's really about dealing with Supergirl?" Lucius said. "It's really unlucky to be teammates with you."

"It's just a precaution. Right now, we're still dealing with Green Lantern." Chen Tao shook his head. "I already stood Waller up yesterday, and since I've already done it, I might as well go all the way."

As he said this, he continued to stain more explosives and weapons yellow: "The Green Lanterns' yellow flaw: their superpower rings don't work on yellow things."

He said, "So I need to prepare more yellow weapons."

He fished the last mech out of the yellow paint bucket: "That's about it."

He wiped his hands, then glanced at the clock: "It's morning. Time to see Waller."

"Oh, right." Before leaving, he suddenly slapped his forehead and walked back to the paint bucket.

"There's still one thing I haven't dyed. I'm so stupid."

A few hours later.

"I……"

"I can't believe you stood me up yesterday, Batman."

Amanda Waller crossed her arms as Batman appeared in a yellow fighter jet.

This is Edwards Air Force Base.

The current Green Lantern, where Hal Jordan works.

"Okay, all in all. Come on, Batman," Amanda Waller said.

She gave the Batman, who had dyed himself yellow, a strange look, but ultimately said nothing.

"Let's go see Green Lantern."
