Countless screams erupted, catching Green Lantern's attention. He quickly abandoned the Power Ring, flying to the crowd at top speed, and materialized a large hand to catch the billboards.
"It's not safe here, get out!"
Green Lantern shouted at the people on the street, but they only pointed in terror at the sky. Hal looked up to see the Power Ring charging down menacingly.
Hal controlled the giant hand to crush the billboards into a ball of iron, then threw it towards the Power Ring.
The Power Ring caught the iron ball, preparing to throw it back into the crowd, but by then, Green Lantern had already charged up, pushing the iron ball and the Power Ring together higher into the sky.
After they disappeared, the pedestrians hiding around the buildings cautiously emerged.
"What exactly is going on? Why are there two Power Rings?"
"No, they're not the same. One of them is protecting us!" Someone said.
The pedestrians thought about it carefully, and indeed it was true. One of the Power Rings seemed not to care about their lives and wanted to kill them all.
The other, however, would rather abandon his opponent to save them.
"Do you think the other one isn't a Power Ring at all?"
"Then who do you think he is?"
The person couldn't answer.
"Green Lantern!" Carol stepped out of a car at this moment. She watched the two green lights disappear into the sky, and again emphasized to the people around her, "The other one is called Green Lantern. You should remember that name."
"Because he is this city's true Guardian, a true hero!"
Hal pushed the iron ball and the Power Ring over the ocean.
The Power Ring threw a punch, shattering the iron ball. After that, Green Lantern materialized a giant drill, pressing it against the Power Ring's chest and continuing to fly upwards.
The Power Ring screamed, but the ring was unmoved. Instead, it took the opportunity to materialize a venomous insect, which fiercely stung Green Lantern's arm in his blind spot.
Hal cried out in pain, and the materialized drill immediately dissipated.
Under the ring's urging, the Power Ring could only actively attack Green Lantern.
But his fragile combat power was no match for Hal, and he was thrown back into the sea.
At this moment, Hal began to realize that this "Hal" seemed to have no will to fight, so it should be impossible for him to execute such precise maneuvers and timing.
He suspected that the ring was controlling the person, not the person controlling the ring, which also happened in their Universe.
Many Green Lanterns who defected to the Sinestro Corps were controlled by the yellow lantern ring.
Therefore, the method to deal with such an opponent was simple. Green Lantern charged towards the Power Ring.
"We are no match for him, I don't want to fight anymore, I'll die!"
The Power Ring flashed rapidly, seemingly rebuking him.
But the Power Ring's will was extremely weak. No matter how the Power Ring rebuked him, his fear of Green Lantern only increased.
He didn't even consider that, given Green Lantern's mercy just now, he likely wouldn't kill him at all.
When Green Lantern flew towards him, the Power Ring had no will to fight and very cowardly turned to flee, but the Power Ring wanted to continue fighting, and their conflict bought Green Lantern time.
He rushed close to the Power Ring, materializing something like a cannon barrel on his arm, completely encasing his arm.
The Power Ring thought it was genuinely a hand cannon, and his fear intensified, further lowering his will to fight.
But he was not as fast as Green Lantern. Hal quickly flew up, locked the "cannon barrel" in his hand onto the Power Ring's ring-wearing arm, placing his arm inside the "cannon barrel" as well.
The Power Ring couldn't see what was happening under the "cannon barrel," but he nervously prepared for an Impact, believing the Power Ring should be able to keep him alive.
But he was wrong. In the end, nothing happened, except he felt something leave his hand.
It was the Power Ring!
"No! It's mine!"
Even a coward like the Power Ring had an untouchable soft spot, and the Power Ring was his soft spot.
He menacingly lunged at Green Lantern, but after losing the Power Ring, the power on his body instantly vanished. He could no longer fly and thus plummeted towards the sea.
This feeling of powerlessness once again turned into fear, gripping his heart and making him almost unable to breathe.
