In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group

Just as Schiller's voice fell, everyone was enveloped in gray mist. Gordon was the first to disappear. After a momentary trance, he found himself in a magical place. The floor beneath his feet was a mixture of black and gold, and above him stretched endless floors.

Standing before him were two Schillers. One was the Schiller he knew, while the other had green hair. Beside them stood another person with green hair and clown makeup.

"Are you planning to let him go first?" Jack the Clown circled around Gordon twice, clicking his tongue and saying, "Well, this guy looks like the opposite of Batman. No matter when, he firmly holds onto his ridiculous goodness and hope..."

Schiller paid no attention to Jack and instead explained to the bewildered Gordon, "Currently, the combined power of our consciousness is not enough to completely eliminate this monster."

"One reason is that the laughing egg may have very special properties. It is difficult to completely destroy it if the power level is not high enough. Another reason is that the Parallax creature, as one of the sources of the power of the yellow ring, is inherently difficult to eradicate."

"So what's your plan?" Gordon looked at Schiller and then surveyed the surroundings. "It seems like you already have an idea?"

"That's right, the tower you see is actually my thinking palace, and just now, I modified it to become an 'amplifier'."

"Amplifier? Amplify what?" Gordon asked with skepticism.

"Emotions," Schiller provided a clear answer. He said, "In the universe, there are various spectrums of emotions. When one particular emotion reaches its peak, it attracts a mysterious force known as the lantern ring."

"I will use this tower to amplify your emotions infinitely and send them out into the universe, actively attracting the lantern rings. This way, you can fight with the power of the lantern rings."

"Okay, but why me?"

"Different lantern rings represent different emotions, and only those who possess that specific emotional quality can attract the lantern rings."

"Although my thinking palace can greatly amplify a certain emotion, it is more likely to succeed if one already possesses a strong emotion naturally."

"And you, GordonDetective, please concentrate now and recall the scenes filled with light and hope in your heart..."

Although Gordon still had some doubts, he followed the instructions. Scene after scene began to appear in his mind.

In this despair-filled city, he worked day after day, returning home exhausted under the dark night, being driven away, insulted, and even pursued.

He also recalled scenes of being chased. On that rainy night, he ran for his life, pain and the scent of blood rising together. He tried everything to escape the killer, jumping out of a window and landing in a pile of garbage, the cold rain patting his face.

Yet, infinite determination and resolve surged within him. Even if he was the last person in this city who genuinely wanted to save it, it had to be him. It had to be Gordon.

The powerful emotion filled with hope soared into the universe through the tower of thought. Soon, a faint voice echoed in Gordon's ears, as though separated by a thick, indistinct wall.

"Days of fear, nights of pain,

The raging fire subsides,

All lost in the flames of war,

Gaze upon the stars,

The light of hope never fades!"

"Intelligent beings located. James Gordon from Earth, you possess the ability to instill unwavering hope in others. Welcome to join the Blue Lantern Corps!"

Schiller turned his head, looking at the wall of the thinking palace, as if peering through the wall and dreaming into reality.

3 / 3

In reality, there is a ring emitting a blue light, quietly floating above the sleeping Gordon Overhead.

The blue lantern ring, representing hope, was drawn to the heightened sense of hope but became a little confused upon arrival.

It could sense that the consciousness of its future host was immersed in a dream. However, if the host didn't awaken, how could they accept the power of the lantern ring?

If the host didn't willingly accept the power of the ring, it wouldn't be able to recognize them as its owner. Just like in the original comic, Batman never wore the lantern ring, rendering it useless to him.

But since it had already arrived, could it just leave like that? The ring emitting blue light hesitated for a moment, then decided to get closer to the host's consciousness.

However, the ring was a tangible object and couldn't merge with Gordon's body. Consequently, the blue light gradually detached from the ring and seeped into Gordon's forehead. The powerless ring fell to the ground with a click.

Only the energy of the blue light entered Gordon's body, while the actual ring remained outside. Devoid of power, it went into standby mode.

In the space of consciousness, when the crisp sound of a click was heard, a blue lantern ring appeared before Gordon. Gordon examined the ring and asked, "Is this the lantern ring you mentioned? Should I put it on?"

"Of course, Gordon Detective, but don't let this power control you."

"Don't worry, I understand. I've never been fond of relying too heavily on external objects." After speaking, Gordon extended his hand, and the blue light flew onto his finger.

As Gordon emerged from the Tower of Babel, his appearance had completely changed. He radiated a blue light from head to toe. Hal stared at him in astonishment and exclaimed, "Is that the power of the lantern ring? The blue lantern ring? How do you possess its power?"

Before he could finish his bewilderment, Victor disappeared into the space as well, clearly entering the Tower of Babel.

"This is a bit troublesome because perhaps the purple lantern ring, representing 'love,' only accepts women..." Schiller said to Victor.

"On what basis is that determined? The human soul? What if my inner self identifies as a woman?"

"Enough with that. Just consider yourself a transgender individual; it would never dare to reject you!"

After a while, a distant voice resounded:

"Fearful and lost, two hearts entwined,

In the darkest night, unable to sleep alone,

Slide your slender finger into the ring, transforming your countenance,

Filling the world with the solitary love of purple light!"

"Intelligent creatures have been located. Victor Fries from Earth, with the profound love in your heart, welcome to join Star Sapphire!"

After a while, Victor, radiating purple light all over his body, appeared in the realm of consciousness. He exchanged a glance with Gordon and then turned their attention to Hal beside them.

Soon after, Alberto vanished, and shortly thereafter, a deep and enraged voice resounded:

"Burning hot blood and scarlet rage, Taken from the unchilled bones, Profound grudges and great hatred seethe within, For it shall forge your path to the underworld!"

"Intelligent lifeform located. Alberto Falcone from Earth, with a surging blaze of fury in your heart, you belong to the Red Lantern Corps!"

And when Alberto emerged with a crimson glow, the sight of one green, one blue, and one purple had already become ordinary.

Finally, it was Copperpot's turn to be called in. He had a feeling as if being summoned to the teacher's office after class. Upon entering, Schiller explained to him the principles of the Indigo Tribe's power of compassion. Then he said, "I believe the Orange Light suits you well because it represents greed."

"Greed? Greed for what?"

"That depends on you." Schiller fixed his gaze on Copperpot, looking into his eyes. "Don't you desire boundless...power?"

Two minutes later, Copperpot emerged, engulfed in an orange glow. Now, apart from Batman, everyone on the battlefield emitted a colorful light.

As Hal beheld the multitude of Lanterns in front of him, he finally understood the meaning behind Schiller's question, "Are you the only Lantern on Earth?"

Earth was undoubtedly home to more than one Lantern...

There were five Lanterns right here! ! !

"Stop staring and get to work."

In an instant, the colorful figures charged towards the Fearful Laughing Demon.

The power of those few individuals empowered by their rings grew stronger, but more importantly, they could employ the emotional energy of their rings to assail the Fearful Laughing Demon. This was crucial because emotions remained an immensely potent force within the realm of dreams.

Meanwhile, Batman, lacking the might of a Lantern Ring, didn't fall behind in the slightest. This was partly due to the fact that it was his own realm of consciousness, and also because his willpower was sufficient to overpower any emotions.

Suddenly, Batman halted his movements, his voice echoing in the ears of the others, "Stop."

Although the others were somewhat perplexed, they obeyed and came to a halt, suspended in mid-air. Fixing his narrowed gaze on the central monster, Batman stated, "That egg is moving; it appears to be hatching..."

"Hatching?"

Several individuals directed their attention towards the head of the colossal monster. Unbeknownst to them, sinister veins had emerged on the gray egg, resembling an impending explosion. The wide, grinning mouth grew increasingly eerie, with even traces of blood-like marks flowing from the corners, rendering the entire head more and more terrifying.

"It has been absorbing those black tides," Batman said in a deep voice. "That is a power I cannot control, but now it seems that it can become its nourishment."

"We cannot let it hatch!"

Hal said, "The mysterious man who brought me into the dream told me that if he appears, he will destroy the entire Lantern Corps! Even if he exaggerated a bit, we cannot let this terrifying monster escape..."

"I understand that better than you do."

Saying this, Batman's figure appeared above the monster. He wanted to touch the egg directly, but was swatted away by the long tail of the Parallax creature. Hal said, "It might have already taken control of Parallax. We must stop it! Hurry!"

Several individuals who possessed the power of the Lantern Rings continued to attack the monster. However, the Parallax creature, under the control of the Laughing Egg, not only possessed immense strength but was also extremely cautious, making every move to protect its own head.

With the absence of a three-sided confrontation, the Laughing Egg and the Parallax creature merged into one. The true horrifying nature of this monster began to manifest. Endless waves of fear surged within the hearts of the people, as wave after wave of black tides washed over them, with a significant portion of the tides being absorbed by the egg.

A faint "crack" sound echoed as cracks appeared on the top of the Laughing Egg. Soon, branching patterns spread, causing the eggshell to shatter. Everyone understood that its hatching was now irreversible.

A suffocating tension arose within Batman as his intuition reached its peak. He could hardly move, only able to stand and watch as the egg ruptured, as if time itself had frozen.

In that moment, the eggshell cracked, and a pale and slender hand emerged from within the egg.

There was no sound, no movement, yet everyone heard a manic laughter amidst the silence. "Hahahahahahahahahaha!"

However, what followed was not a monster breaking out of its shell, but a voice that was familiar yet slightly indifferent.

"Stop laughing, it's too unpleasant."

Suddenly, a multicolored radiance flickered over everyone's bodies, and a dense gray mist enveloped them. The various hues of radiance were drawn out from within them, blending into the boundless gray mist.

The completely dissonant spectrums of color struggled relentlessly within the mass of gray fog, causing chaos, explosions, friction, fragmentation, and fusion...

Eventually, in the air, within the hovering gray mist, after an amalgamation of various colors, a neither black nor white but chaotic gray hue emerged.

In the midst of endless silence, the gray mist began to condense, gradually forming a circular lantern furnace.

A resounding dragon roar echoed, as the head of a massive dragon emerged from the mist, followed by a neck and wings covered in scales. A colossal dragon composed of gray mist, emitting an energy aura, flew out from the luminous gray furnace.

A deep and distant voice resonated from the sky:

"Ashen soup, misty haze, Where does reality go, where do dreams lead, The pillar of thoughts, the chamber of souls, A thousand stars shine together, ten thousand lights are born!"

"Intelligent life locked in from..."

"Forget it, the following words are too long, anyway—"

"Batman, continue."
