After getting into Carol's car, Michael said with a smile, "I just arrived here today and haven't booked a hotel yet. Since you want to be my tour guide, can you help me find a hotel first?"
"You haven't booked a hotel yet, and you don't have any luggage? Your way of traveling is really unique!"
"Isn't this easier?" Michael replied with a grin.
Carol started the car and drove directly to a nearby hotel. On the way, the two chatted casually, and the atmosphere was very relaxed. Not long after, they arrived at the hotel. Carol stopped the car and said, "This hotel is not bad."
"Thank you very much for your recommendation. Would you like to come up and have a cup of coffee?" Michael asked with a smile.
Carol smiled and flipped her hair, "You invited me to have coffee before the room is even open? Don't you think this is a bit fast? Although I have a good feeling about you, it's not that far yet. I don't want to give my first time to a traveler casually."
"Oh, this really surprises me. Well, see you later?" Michael replied, not feeling embarrassed. After saying goodbye with a smile, he turned around, got out of the car, and entered the hotel.
After checking into his room, Michael used the hotel's computer to search the Internet for news. It must be said that the Internet is indeed a good thing. He soon found out about Hal Jordan's situation; it seemed that he had just been suspended.
Michael turned off the computer and prepared to have a good rest. Although being in the Fairy Palace and on the spaceship were both good, they were far less comfortable than sleeping on a Simmons mattress!
"Huh? Daily Planet?"
Michael was just about to lie down when he noticed a newspaper placed aside and picked it up curiously.
There is nothing special about the Daily Planet, but there is one reporter from the Daily Planet who is very special.
Clark Kent.
If you are not familiar with this name, he has another name that is definitely a household name.
That's Superman!
This superhero from Krypton, a giant in the Justice League—He is sure everyone has heard of his name.
After seeing the Daily Planet, Michael suddenly had an idea.
The previous supernatural plane was fine; after all, there was no connection with other planes. But Green Lantern's plane was different, as Green Lantern himself was one of the founders of the Justice League.
Green Lantern, Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Cyborg, and other main members of the Justice League.
"System, if I erase this world and open a new one with the same worldview, such as Flash's plane, then in that plane, will it continue the development of the Green Lantern?" Michael asked curiously.
[In a worldview, everything that happens will continue.]
"That is to say, if I get the Green Lantern Ring, there will be no Green Lantern in this dimension. If I enter Superman or Flash in the same worldview in the future, there will be no Green Lantern either, right?"
[Yes!]
This answer made Michael very happy. What did it mean?
This means that he doesn't have to keep many copies at the same time. As long as he keeps one worldview, he can completely leave the copy after getting the Green Lantern Ring, erase this copy, and then go back to open the copy planes of Superman, Flash, and even Green Arrow, and they will be connected to each other!
[The plot begins, and the mission is released.]
[Main quest: Get the Green Lantern Ring.]
[Side Quest 1: A Hero Saves a Beauty. Save Carol and win her heart!]
[Side Quest 2: Green Lantern Makes Its Name. Let the world know about the existence of Green Lantern!]
Michael was suddenly hit with a task issued by the system. He was stunned for a moment and said, "Why wasn't this task issued right after I entered? Does it have to wait until the plot begins? Moreover, why is there a side quest this time?"
[Yes, because the system level has been upgraded; side quests have been added.]
"That's good. At least I can get more energy to level up. But what the hell is Branch 1? Do I have to be a hero to save a beauty to get peace of mind? Picking up girls is a mission!"
Although Michael did have a crush on Carol and knew that she was the heroine of the Green Lantern dimension, he took the initiative to strike up a conversation with her. If something could happen, it would be great; after all, she was very beautiful! But he never expected that it would actually be posted as a task.
What is this? Killing two birds with one stone?
Shaking his head, Michael was just about to think about how to complete the task when he suddenly saw a bright light flash outside the window, as if something had fallen.
Abin-Hur's ship!
No wonder the system suddenly released the task; the plot has only officially begun now!
After opening the window, Michael's body suddenly turned into flames and flew directly to the landing site of the spacecraft. In the dark night, the fire flashed by, and after a moment, Michael landed. The flames on his body disappeared, and he looked at the transparent spacecraft that had fallen not far away.
An alien with purple skin, a bald head, and wearing a Green Lantern suit was sitting in the spaceship, looking near death. He had a Green Lantern ring on his finger. It was the Green Lantern Abin-Hur!
It won't be long before the Green Lantern Ring automatically finds the next one who meets its requirements, and that is Hal Jordan!
Michael walked over quickly, carried Abin-Hur out of the spaceship, and put him on the ground. The dying Abin-Hur looked at Michael and seemed to want to speak.
At this time, the Green Lantern ring suddenly emitted light, and a ball of green energy enveloped Michael. Michael was startled, thinking that Abin-Hur was going to attack him, but he soon discovered that this ball of green energy was very stable and did not seem to have any malicious intent.
"Could it be..." Michael was a little surprised. Hal Jordan was brought here by this Green Lantern energy and was chosen to be the next Green Lantern. Now, this energy appeared on him. Could it be that... the Green Lantern Ring chose him!
He remembered that the basic requirement to become a Green Lantern was to be fearless. To be honest, he was very much in line with this. Although he knew that there would be many powerful enemies in the future and he might not be their opponent yet, he was confident that he would become stronger in time! It was precisely because he firmly believed in this that he had never been afraid.
"May I have your name?"
Abin-Hur looked at Michael and asked.
"Michael. My name is Michael."
"Michael, I'm Abin-Hur, the guardian of sector 2814." Abin-Hur said, raising his hand and opening his palm to reveal a Green Lantern ring. "This ring has chosen you. Take it! Put the ring in the Green Lantern, put it on, and swear an oath." Abin-Hur looked at the Green Lantern on the spacecraft, grabbed Michael's hand, and handed the ring to him. After he finished speaking, his head tilted slightly, and he died.
Looking at the Green Lantern Ring in his hand, Michael was still a little dazed. He had originally been thinking about how to get the Green Lantern Ring from Hal Jordan, but he didn't expect things to be completely different from what he thought. From the very beginning, the Green Lantern Ring chose him.
"I'm sorry, Hal Jordan. There's nothing you can do as Green Lantern anymore. But it's better this way. If you didn't get it, you won't feel pain from losing it!" Michael tightened the Green Lantern ring and hooked his finger toward the green light in the spaceship. The green light floated over and landed next to Michael.
Looking at Abin-Hur's body, Michael sighed and released his telekinesis.
Abin-Hur's wound gradually expanded and tore, and then a crystal with yellow light slowly floated out.
This thing is not ordinary. As long as you hold it, you will be affected, slowly becoming influenced and changed. It is not a good thing. And it is this thing that attracted Sinestro to come to Earth, to devour fear and gain energy, just like the yellow light in the seven-color light group!
"System, is this thing useful? If not, I'm going to destroy it!" The time of stay is limited, and Michael doesn't want to wait until Sinestro descends on Earth after he leaves. If he is not there by then, who will deal with him?
Therefore, the best way is to destroy this thing. If Sinestro doesn't come to Earth, there will naturally be no danger.
[You can devour it, gain its abilities, and generate extra energy!]
The system replied.
"The ability to devour it? Is it fear? No, it's the ability to absorb fear?" Michael thought about it and felt that it was very feasible. The power of fear is quite terrifying. As long as someone feels fear, he can gain powerful strength. This is simply an endless source of energy. However, it may not be so easy to devour its ability; it is definitely not something that can be accomplished overnight!
"Then put it in the system space first!"
