Chapter 844 Parallax Monster
After Carol's last short rest on Earth, she returned to the universe. Because of Jiang Shan's instructions, she consciously approached the Green Lanterns and spent more time with the Lantern Group during this period.
Jiang Shan had told her about the emotional spectrum, the Seven Lantern Corps, and the lantern beasts, and Carol wanted to get to the bottom of this matter.
Is there something wrong with Oa Star? How harmful are the lamp beasts? What exactly is the emotional spectrum?
Carol is generous and righteous, and her relationship with the Green Lanterns is getting better and better.
Half a month ago, Sinestro, the leader of the Green Lantern Corps, found her and the Guardians of the Galaxy and said that the Green Lanterns had discovered the whereabouts of the fear-beast Parallax in a certain star field and invited Carol to conspire against this monster.
Of course Carol was very interested and agreed immediately.
But unexpectedly, the parallax monster killed several green lights who were monitoring it and ran away.
In the vast universe, this group of people searched like headless flies for a long time and confirmed that the parallax monster had left the nearby star field.
Fortunately, Sinestro knew the Lanterns very well and knew that they could not survive on their own for long and needed a host. There happened to be three life planets in the nearby star field, so he concluded that the Parallax Monster would definitely go to one of these three life planets to find a host, and then set off a frenzy of fear and absorb the fear of intelligent creatures.
They immediately split into three groups, with the Green Lanterns responsible for two of the planets, and Carol and the Guardians of the Galaxy responsible for the remaining one.
The teardrop spaceship shuttled through the starry sky, flashing and disappearing, with a single jump covering hundreds of light years; inside the spaceship, a group of people were talking about the parallax monster.
Peter Quill and Mantis were making a scene while saying, "What on earth is this parallax monster? The Green Lanterns are not weak, but Sinestro is facing a formidable enemy."
Carol said, "Do you know the nature of the Green Lanterns' powers?"
Peter said, "That's no problem for me."
He smiled and said, "Courage?"
Carol said: "Courage is a quality, an emotion that every intelligent creature has to some extent; so why can only Green Lanterns use the power of courage?"
Peter scratched his head: "I don't know about that."
Carol said: "It's because of the lamp beast."
Peter was surprised: "Their power comes from the lantern beast? The parallax monster?"
Carol said, "There are more Lanterns than just Parallax. And the essence of Parallax is fear, not courage. The source of the Green Lanterns' power, or the key to unlocking and using courage, is their Lantern Ring, which comes from another Lantern, the Ion Shark."
Said: "Parallax is a Fear Lantern, and Ion Shark is a Courage Lantern."
After hearing this, the people around suddenly understood.
Rocket couldn't help but ask, "Fear, courage. So there are other lantern beasts?"
Carol nodded: "Yes."
Said: "Jiang Shan told me that there are seven conventional lamp beasts and two unconventional ones."
Says: "They come from the 'emotional spectrum'."
He said: "These lamp beasts behave in different ways due to their different essential emotions. For intelligent creatures, negative and extreme emotional power is extremely harmful. Just like this parallax monster, it feeds on fear. Its behavior is to make all creatures feel fear, and then suck the fear of the creatures, and even suck the life out of them."
After a pause, he continued, "Jiang Shan believes that even a lamp beast with positive emotions is not a good thing."
He said: "He said that the lamp beasts absorb the emotions of living things. Without positive emotions, humans will only have negative emotions, dominated by cruelty, tyranny, and viciousness; if they lose negative emotions, then humans will no longer be human."
Hearing this, Peter and others couldn't help but shudder.
“Oh my god!”
Peter screamed: "I can't imagine, if I lose all my emotions, what will be left of me! Just a blank shell?!"
Drax the Destroyer grinned: "My emotions are dull, but I am already satisfied. However, if I lose it, I will turn into stone."
Groot: "I'm Groot."
Rocket frowned: "Then catch all these damn lantern beasts and kill them!"
Peter rolled his eyes and said, "If that's the case, then aren't the Green Lanterns committing suicide?"
He said: "They wear the lamp ring, and every time they use the power of courage, they will probably be taxed by the lamp ring; as time goes by, their courage will be gone!"
Carol said, "I'm looking into this."
She hesitated and said, "Peter's speculation may be correct."
She said: "I asked Sinestro, he has only been a Green Lantern for over a hundred years, and the oldest Green Lantern in the current Green Lantern Corps is less than two hundred years old; but Oa has existed for countless years."
He paused and said, "So, where are the former Green Lanterns? They can't have all died in battle, right?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
After hearing this, several people looked at each other. Gamora couldn't help but let out a sigh: "Maybe they were all swallowed by the Ion Shark in the end."
"What the hell!" Peter grinned. "The Green Lanterns did so many good things, and this is what happened in the end? This won't do!"
Carol said: "So we need to find out what's going on in there."
He said, "Jiang Shan also asked me to look into this matter. It just so happens that I encountered the Parallax Monster this time, so I caught it and brought it back to Koros Island and handed it to Jiang Shan. I will analyze it carefully and figure out the nature of this thing. Then I will apply it to other lantern beasts. The Green Lanterns are all good people. We can't let them continue to commit chronic suicide."
This conversation did not last long, but they were about to reach their target planet.
The droplet spacecraft made its last jump and jumped directly into the star system where the planet was located, in the starry sky hundreds of millions of kilometers away from the planet.
The dark energy detection device was immediately activated to search for the planet.
After a few minutes, retrieve the feedback information.
Artificial Intelligence: "No supernatural power fluctuations beyond the limit have been detected."
When Carol heard this, he said to everyone, "It seems that thing didn't come to this planet."
Then he gave the AI an order: "Contact Sinestro immediately!"
"OK."
A moment later, Sinestro's silhouette was projected.
Carol said, "Sinestro, we haven't found any Parallax Monster on the planet we're in charge of, so it can only be on your side. Be careful, we'll be there soon."
Sinestro nodded, "Okay."
After a brief communication, Carol immediately called up the star map and locked onto another planet with life. The droplet spacecraft adjusted its direction and entered the next space jump.
At this time, Sinestro had just hung up the call with Carol and was about to talk to his left and right when he received a communication request from another green light.
Sinestro answered the call immediately, and a shocking scene appeared in front of his eyes! A huge monster that looked like a solid mass of butter was devouring a planet. The pus-like yellow liquid flowing around it was like butter that was slowly heated and gradually melted, and it had already covered half of the planet! The Green Lanterns who initiated the communication said in a terrified and hurried voice: "Sinestro, the Parallax Monster suddenly expanded for some reason. We will launch the final attack for the peace of the universe. Goodbye, Sinestro!"
