The Power Ring reverted to a mortal.
Green Lantern held the Power Ring, its seductive whispers echoing in his ears, very similar to the yellow lantern ring. This was a ring that could lead people to corruption.
He unhesitatingly sealed the Power Ring within his Ring World, severing its connection to the Real World.
Immediately after, he caught the falling "Hal Jordan" and brought him back to Coast City... At the Crime Syndicate's Base, Owlman received a message from Coast City.
"The Power Ring was defeated?"
He frowned. In the message, he saw that a metahuman with the same abilities as the Power Ring had defeated him and sent him to the police station.
Police station? Why the police station?
Owlman found it strange. Since when did metahumans hand their opponents over to the police?
"The message indicates that the Power Ring's ring was taken." Martian Manhunter flew in from outside the door, his tone somewhat grave.
Owlman put down the intelligence in his hand: "What? You received this message too?"
Martian Manhunter nodded, "Not just me, everyone else must have received it too. The guy who defeated the Power Ring is a bit strange; he seems to be cooperating with the government."
"Oh?" Owlman showed some interest, "He actually trusts the government?"
"Not entirely, but he did hand the Power Ring over to the police in front of everyone. However, in exchange, the government seems to have concealed the Power Ring's true identity."
"Ha, interesting."
"There's something even more interesting. Our people found a metahuman in Central City with the same abilities as Johnny Quick. He's fast, very fast! Possibly even faster than Johnny Quick."
Owlman, hearing this, emphasized: "The same abilities?"
Martian Manhunter nodded: "The same abilities."
After a moment of silence, Owlman suddenly asked him: "Your side?"
Martian Manhunter shook his head: "No similar people have appeared yet."
Owlman thought of the sudden airplane malfunction a few days ago, feeling somewhat suspicious, as if an invisible dark hand was manipulating everything behind the scenes.
"I must go back to Gotham!" Owlman stood up and walked out the door.
Martian Manhunter's voice sounded at this moment: "Do you know something?"
Owlman's footsteps paused. He tilted his head slightly: "What do you think?"
Then he boarded his invisible plane and left the area.
During the journey, Owlman continued to ponder the connections between these events.
What happened in Coast City and Central City was by no means isolated. Two metahumans with the same abilities as the Syndicate members of this World, if one didn't consider clones, then there was another possible explanation.
They came from a parallel World.
Owlman had long known about Alfred inadvertently entering a parallel World and discovering counterparts to the Syndicate members of this World on the other side. He just hadn't told the other members yet.
He had instructed Alfred to infiltrate and disrupt that World, but due to the special nature of the mission, they couldn't maintain contact until it was successful.
To be honest, this plan was Owlman's least confident plan to date, because all processes were beyond his control. The only thing he controlled was Alfred. Owlman had his secret, which compelled him to obey his orders.
But that was in another World. If Alfred could truly bring himself to abandon everything here and stay in that World, then Owlman actually didn't have a very good way to punish him.
But the intelligence he received today made him realize a possibility.
That is, the other party could also discover their conspiracy and, in turn, use this plan to invade their World.
Perhaps Alfred's description of that World was too beautiful, causing Owlman to lose his most basic vigilance.
But this was just one conjecture; the truth might not be as he thought, perhaps it was just some other enemies shaking the Syndicate's rule.
Perhaps it was the government, perhaps scattered resistance organizations in various places; they might also have some special ways to replicate the abilities of some Syndicate members.
This was not impossible; after all, Mazahs had escaped, and they couldn't find where he was now.
He could seize the power of others; perhaps there was an opposite way, to bestow power upon others?
But Owlman believed that these conjectures would become clear as soon as he returned to Gotham City; he had such an intuition... On the other side, Dane flew upwards, and soon broke through the atmosphere, escaping Earth's gravity.
Here, Dane's Speed Force could operate at full power, without fear of accidentally harming others.
When his speed reached a certain limit, his body transformed into a bolt of lightning, eventually crashing onto the Moon, leaving a new lunar crater there.
Dane walked out of the crater; he sensed that there was a power on this Planet, and besides Mazahs, no one else would stay in such a place...
