In this universe, there was conceptual energy called the 'Emotional Spectrum'.
It was divided into Visible Spectrum and Invisible Spectrum and was formed by the emotions of all living beings in the multiverse, which were stirred up and brought into being.
According to current reports, the first to discover this conceptual energy were the ancient Maltusians.
Then, they studied it.
It was found that the farther away from the Emotional Spectrum, the greater its influence on users.
It could be understood that the more extreme the emotion, the more it would erode the host.
Moreover, the Maltusians also found that in the vast and mysterious Emotional Spectrum, each colour had an energy entity related to it, that was, the existence of 'the Lantern Entity'.
Knowing a lot about the mysteries of the Emotional Spectrum, the Maltusians thought that they were the oldest and most intelligent life, and they called themselves the 'Guardians of the Universe'.
In order to carry out their power and duty, this group of Guardians of the Universe chose the most suitable green light of will to create a huge corps of lanterns to maintain order.
They called their planet Oa, the 'centre of the universe'.
With it as the centre of the circle, a total of 3600 sectors had been designated.
The Earth, which lies within sector 2814, was the 'jurisdiction' of Abin Sur.
'This ring, it didn't resist me. '
Luke recalled the information in his brain and fixed his eyes on the green ring that broke through the glass window and landed on the desk.
Although it was said that the power of will didn't distinguish good from evil, and it only values pure courage...
No matter what you think about it, he wasn't suitable to act as a cosmic police officer.
'Is it Abin Sur's ring?'
Thinking of what Barry said before, Abin Sur was the first alien who came to Earth and made a public appearance; Luke had doubts in his heart.
If something happened to the other party after disappearing for so long, this Green Lantern Ring should also be recalled to Oa to find the next owner.
Or, like the original trajectory, pick Hal Jordan and make him a great Green Lantern.
'Does it mean that my inner benevolence and righteousness have finally been discovered?'
Luke laughed at himself.
He reached over and touched the lantern ring.
A bright green light, like water waves, instantly covered his body, forming an energy force field.
Then, Luke felt as if his spirit had made an invisible connection with the lantern ring.
The power of emotion, representing the will, transformed into substance and condensed into shape!
Almost subconsciously, a loud voice rang out in his head, causing him to chant along unconsciously --
"In brightest day, in blackest night."
"No evil shall escape my sight."
"Let those who worship evil's might, beware of my power."
"Green Lantern's… Oh, out of power."
Before the Green Lantern oath was finished, the brightly glowing light ring dimmed like a computer that had been unplugged.
Luke was slightly stunned. Initially, he wanted to have a superhero moment.
Kryptonian cousin + Green Lantern fully qualified him to become the eighth member of the Justice League.
Who knew that the lantern ring was so lame!
'The energy had run out ... Well, according to the time Abin Sur disappeared, this ring can still last until now; that duration is already ridiculous enough."
He shook his head. The lantern ring was usually equipped with a power battery, which should be a complete set.
It was like the relationship between a mobile phone and a power bank.
At the headquarters of the Green Lantern Corps, there was also a central power battery on the planet Oa, which was connected to all the rings of the corps.
Similar to the existence of data lines.
When going out on a mission, a Green Lantern needs to carry a power battery and charge it in time to ensure combat capability.
Back on the planet Oa, the central power battery was the greatest guarantee.
'So, where did Abin Sur place the power battery?'
After wearing the ring for a short while, Luke understood why the ring looked for him.
Before something happened to Abin Sur, an instruction was stored in the lantern ring, and the conditions for the successor were preset.
It was, find the most powerful person with the power of will on this planet.
The lantern had the function of scanning all life on the planet. According to this command, it found Luke.
As for why the skinny Superman wasn't selected, it was probably because he was held in a secret military base. As Subject One, Kal-El had no will and only fear.
'Strong?'
Luke was even more puzzled. Why did Abin Sur add this requirement?
According to the criteria for selecting members of the Green Lantern Corps, the only requirement was to have willpower and overcome fear; they wouldn't measure strength.
'Maybe he foresaw a Flashpoint or a bigger crisis?'
Luke took off the lantern ring. His eyes slightly flickered, and he dialled Barry's phone number.
The Cosmic Treadmill was about to be built. The Flash was seizing this limited time, trying to spend time with his mother, who was murdered in the main universe.
"Hey, Barry, do me a favour."
Luke adeptly called the Flash and spoke with a smile, "Please take the time 'to go to the toilet' and visit Metropolis ... I need to find the Green Lantern Power Battery."
After explaining the details, he hung up the phone.
The most likely place for the Green Lantern Power Battery to be hidden in was probably Cyborg's lab.
After Abin Sur crash-landed on Earth, he saved the other party.
The spaceship, and everything inside, should be in Cyborg's hands.
Knock, knock.
Moments later, even before the advertisement on TV had passed, there was a knock at the door.
"Sir, the package you ordered arrived."
Barry rested his elbow on the door frame with a relaxed look.
"What do you need Hal's power battery for?"
Luke smiled and gently said, "While you were having dinner with your mother, Abin Sur's ring found me."
When the Flash heard this, a series of question marks immediately popped upon his head.
'What happened?'
Although Hal Jordan wasn't the only Green Lantern on Earth, and later there was Guy Gardner, John Stewart, Kyle Rayner and others.
But no matter how he thought about it, Abin Sur couldn't have skipped the Green Lantern of the main universe, Hal Jordan, and picked Luke instead.
'Superman + Green Lantern, what combination is this?!'
"That's the truth. I was almost finished reading the Green Lantern oath just now. But, the lantern ring ran out of energy, so I asked you to find the power battery and bring it to me."
Luke shrugged his shoulders. He wasn't interested in becoming the Green Lantern. What if it triggered the negative buff of team annihilation?
As everyone knew, the Green Lantern mostly did everything solo, and he was undefeated.
Once a team was formed, if it were more than five people, the group would definitely be destroyed.
This was like Marvel's Nova of the Nova Corps, a man who could always beat all kinds of powerful enemies.
However, as long as they formed a group, their combat capabilities were weakened by two-thirds.
What Luke was really interested in was the Emotional Spectrum.
This was one of the most powerful conceptual energies in the multiverse, in addition to the seven colours of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet, plus the later appearances of white and black.
Beyond the Source Wall, there was the Invisible Spectrum.
It can be seen that the existence of the Emotional Spectrum was extremely ancient.
The room for moving up was also exceptionally high.
It was the common energy of the multiverse and the ladder that promoted someone to a higher level.
No one would refuse to become stronger, and Luke was no exception.
Therefore, he was willing to take some time to study the lantern ring and the Emotional Spectrum carefully.
"It's unbelievable. You're replacing Hal as the Green Lantern."
Barry scratched his head. He didn't think Luke wasn't qualified. He just felt that it was a little out of place.
After all, the Kryptonian cousin could hammer down most people on this planet with just his fist.
For him, the lantern ring was more like a dispensable ornament.
"Abin Sur left me a message. Let's see it first."
Luke could probably understand Barry's thought, and in fact, he thought so, too. The lantern ring wouldn't improve him that much.
Besides, he didn't like green either.
Putting the Green Lantern Ring back on, Luke reached out and pressed it against the silent power battery.
The long-dusty, quaint power battery suddenly burst with bright light.
The remaining energy poured into the lantern ring, activating the message left by Abin Sur.
"... I don't know who you are, and I don't know your name, but I believe in the choice of the lantern ring. You should be the most courageous and powerful creature on this planet."
"The next thing I want to say is very important. There's a Green Lantern soldier named Thaal Sinestro who came to Earth."
"His purpose is to seize the power of the Flash; an Earthling named Barry Allen."
"Sinestro's ambition is to rewrite time, to create a better world according to his vision."
"No matter who you are or what your name is, I implore you. Wear this ring and step forward to stop his madness!"
"The task of saving the world and defending Earth is in your hands!"
"..."
Luke looked speechless. He looked at Barry, who was also stunned.
"Sinestro?"
The Flash looked surprised.
'Hal's old enemy, why would he be looking for me?'
