Chapter 442: The Darkest Night

Although Hal rushed to Oua to find the Guardians to reason, at this time, he saw that they were all wiped out, lying on the ground in uncertainty about their fate and death, and his anger suddenly fell to the back of his mind. Although these little blue people are a little old-fashioned and annoying on weekdays, and they are very wrong with Hal's temperament, after all, they are also his boss and have given him a high degree of affirmation, and Hal still has some feelings for them.

Moreover, although the Guardians usually do not leave Ou'a and rarely make a move, the strength of each of them is undoubtedly above any Lampman. Besides, they have been staying in the Oua headquarters, surrounded by lantern heroes, is there really someone in the universe who has the ability to sneak into the top of the tower without hiding so many green lanterns, and even destroy these little blue people before they have time to call for help?

How powerful is that?

After all, Hal has also experienced many big scenes, and he quickly calmed down. Due to the Gatewatch's ban on anyone approaching, he is undoubtedly the only one who has discovered that something has happened to the Guardians, and now he must quickly call all the Lampmen

Suddenly, a little blue man lying in a pool of blood actually groaned, and it seemed that he had not yet lost his breath. Hal hurriedly stepped forward to check, only to find that the Guardian Ganse, with whom he had the best personal friend.

Ganser is the most accommodating of the old-fashioned little blue men, and as a result, he often disagrees with his companions. But he is quite fond of Hal, who has a free and easy personality and often disobeys orders, and often uses his authority to accommodate Hal, who violates discipline and advocates for himself, so the two have always had a good relationship.

"Ganse?" Hal hurriedly picked up the dying Guardian and asked, "What happened?" ”

Ganser woke up slowly, seemed to recognize him at last, and asked with difficulty, "Jordan the Lampman?" ”

"It's me." Haldao, "What happened? Who attacked you? ”

Ganther trembled and raised a hand and pointed it to the sky: "Beware! ”

Hal looked up, his pupils suddenly constricted. I saw that the sky of Oua was obscured by dense black clouds at some point, and Oua never had dark clouds on weekdays—no, they were not dark clouds, but dense enemies. They were shriveled and had sunken eyes, like dried corpses that had just been dug out of a grave. They were all surrounded by a thick black dead air, and the black qi connected into a large area that covered the sky and the sun, like an endless dark cloud, black and oppressive from the sky.

Hal was shocked: "What's that?" ”

At this moment, the zombie army had already slaughtered from the sky, rushed into every square and every facility in Oua, and soon fought with the Green Lantern everywhere. In an instant, the fortress had been turned into a battlefield.

A large number of dried corpses soon fell from the tower where Hal was standing. One by one, they let out nauseous sounds and rushed towards Hal as if they were obsessed. Hal let out a loud shout, and his whole body was covered in green light, and he immediately released various figurations with the lamp ring to fight these monsters.

Although these zombies are numerous, they don't seem to be very strong in combat. The green light energy released by Hal cut through the pitch-black dead qi with a shattering momentum, and the row of dried corpses standing in front of him was immediately shattered. But the terrifying thing is that they don't seem to be able to be eliminated, and the broken bodies of these dried corpses that were cut off by Hal quickly secreted pitch-black slime, and in less than a second, they reglued the broken bodies together, got up and continued to move forward.

Taken aback, Hal temporarily halted his attack, shielding himself and the dying Ganser with only the green light's energy, while ordering the Lantern Ring to scan the group of enemies. It's a pity that even the Green Lantern Ring, which knows almost everything, actually reported that the origin of the enemy could not be ascertained.

And then, the most terrifying scene - I saw several zombies stop beside the breathless guardians, pause for a moment, and each of them secreted black slime, which quickly condensed into the shape of a black ring. Hal looked closely, and saw that they all seemed to be wearing one of these rings on their hands. The black rings trailed through the pitch black, each finding the corpse of a fallen Guardian and placing it on their middle fingers. Soon, several of the dead Guardians also opened their eyes one after another, floating like ghosts. Their eyes were emblazoned with symbols similar to those of the Lantern Ring, and their skin had turned a dark blue, close to dark black, which was indescribably weird.

"What the hell is going on?" Hal exclaimed.

Before he could come back to his senses, several Guardians who had come back from the dead struck out in unison, and black torrents erupted from their palms, instantly tearing through Howl's green light protection and knocking him off the tower along with Ganther. Hal felt a wave of nausea in his chest and a dizziness in front of his eyes, and it took him a few moments to reluctantly control his body and stabilize himself in midair, reaching out to grab Ganther, who was also falling beside him.

"Go to the central battery," Ganser said weakly.

After receiving his reminder, Hal suddenly thought that the room where the central main battery of the green light on Oua was located had the most powerful defense on the planet, and the outer shield directly received the total energy supply of the green light, which was almost impossible to break. Ganther was now on the verge of death, and it would be unwise to take him into battle with such a large number of strange enemies, and he had to be put to safety first.

Thinking of this, Hal no longer entangled with the group of zombies chasing him, and ran back with Ganser, sprinting towards the location of the central main battery at full speed.

Sure enough, after entering the protective layer, the monsters did not chase after them again. There were already a lot of Green Lanterns gathered in the main battery hall, including Salak, who had been knocked down by Hal earlier, and everyone hurried around when they saw him come in with Ganse.

Ganser took a moment to recover, and finally began to explain to everyone what had happened.

"I'm short on time, so I'll cut it short." "You all should already know that there are seven colors of light in the spectrum of emotions in the universe, and each color of light corresponds to an emotion. But the truth is, we have something to hide from you. In addition to the genealogy of these seven-colored lights, there are also black and white colored lights, which represent death and life respectively. ”

"So the one who attacked Oua was the black light group that represented death?" A lantern man asked.

"Black Light Corpse, the undead awakened by the Black Light Ring." "But unlike us, we are the users who control the light ring, and the black light is the ring that controls the dead. They possess the abilities, memories, and flesh of the deceased, and they harness the consciousness of what is indeed the ring itself. The final chapter of the Book of Eua records the arrival of the darkest night, and it prophesies that everything in the universe will finally reach the darkest night. We did everything we could to stop it from coming, but we didn't expect it."

Seeing him sigh in mourning, Hal couldn't help but urge, "What's the matter, Ganse? Who woke up the Black Light Corps? And who beat you like this? ”

Ganser's eyes were tightly closed.

"It's Scarface, one of us, a Guardian."

As soon as these words came out, all the lantern men were indescribably shocked. It turned out that the culprit who attacked the guardian and released the black light corpse turned out to be one of the little blue men.

"I know you have a lot to ask, but at this very moment, the universe is facing annihilation, and this is when the lights are needed most." Gan Se said, "A single colored lamp can't destroy the black light corpse, they can recover from any attack, and they are basically invincible. The only hope to break the black light is for all the Colored Lantern Legions to join forces and fight the enemy together."

He spoke, pausing, and turned his gaze to Hal.

"It's up to you, Hal the Lampman." He said, "I know it's very difficult to get the Seven Lantern Legion to throw their barriers behind and fight the enemy together, but you have crossed paths with the other six members of the Colored Lantern Legion, and your words will definitely be able to do it." I need you to gather the power of the Seven Lights and then go to the center of this battleI need you to go to Earth. ”

Hal was stunned: "Earth? ”

"Yes, Earth." Ganse said solemnly, "All along, we have concealed this fact, and it is this moment that we are afraid of - Oua is not the center of the universe, the earth is. ”
