Hal Jordan jerked awake, his body stiffening as he turned to look above the city, where two familiar figures from television soared through the sky.

The Transcender, radiating a thick purple aura, crossed his arms and looked down from above, with Superman trailing close behind, his cape billowing. A striking and valiant woman, with a golden lasso at her waist, stood suspended in the air on the other side of the Transcender.

"Ha ha..."

Seeing David behind him, Hal Jordan forced a laugh: "I... I was just kidding."

The dazzling ring on his finger dimmed noticeably.

"Why did the ring go dark?"@@novelbin@@

Batman, who had been annoyed by the blinding light of Hal Jordan's ring, asked.

"Energy saving."

Hal Jordan's voice dropped a few notches, his face flushed with embarrassment.

The power of the Lantern ring depended on the will of the user, and the Transcender, who possessed a ring outside the Legion's standard issue, surely knew this. Hal Jordan felt like he had lost face.

"Has Hal Jordan become a Green Lantern?"

David recognized Hal Jordan from the contours of his face beneath the green mask.

As one of America's top pilots, Hal Jordan had a full page of biography on the internet, complete with photos.

After accidentally receiving the ring, he had once followed Hal Jordan online.

Swoosh!

"There's been a big event, hasn't there?"

Batman looked up at David.

Everyone online knew that the Transcender was powerful and mysterious, never involving himself in ordinary crime-fighting activities, appearing only when a crisis threatened the entire world.

"It seems that the owners of those biological weapons possess extraordinary power."

Merely those demon-like biological weapons, even in the millions, posed no threat to the two individuals present. There had to be something else.

"We're still one step behind."

Clark clenched his fist, his super-vision spotting demonic creatures circling in the distant sky like vultures searching for prey.
