Canary replied, "Halo has already attracted the Green Lantern's attention. Now that prison is only guarded by Federal Government personnel."
Federal Government? Red Arrow scoffed.
Their combat strength was even worse than Federal Express!
"While Halo and the Green Lantern are busy, let's quickly rescue Ultraman!"
After these "remnants" decided on the rescue plan, the first problem they faced was the mutual support among Justice League members.
Even if the Federal Government was incompetent, holding off these "remnants" for a few minutes and calling for the Justice League's help was still achievable.
Therefore, to hold back any heroes who might come to assist, they assigned an opponent to every hero not far from the super prison.
They assigned Observer to the fastest Flash; she could control opponents through language.
As a speedster, Flash didn't like quick battles and was a hero who loved to talk and persuade opponents to surrender. The "remnants" believed that given time, Observer could even make Flash perform a "Swan Lake" on the spot.
And the opponent they arranged for the Green Lantern was Halo.
Halo, like Dr. Kimiyo Hoshi, possessed the ability to manipulate light, but the difference was that Halo's power didn't come from Vega but from an ancient energy entity residing in her body.
And her ability had a unique feature: each Emotional Spectrum represented a different power.
White Halo allowed her to fly, while Red Halo generated destructive heat beams to melt or burn enemies.
Orange Halo could produce powerful Impact beams to repel enemies.
Yellow Halo could create dazzling flashes to stun or blind enemies.
Blue Halo could generate distorted holograms to confuse or distract enemies.
Green Halo could produce stasis beams to stop or manipulate enemies, and could also be used to pass through walls.
Indigo Halo could generate tractor beams, and Purple Halo could produce powerful psychic effects.
All these abilities were observed by the Green Lantern during his battles with her.
He felt a bit strange. This woman's abilities seemed very impressive and versatile, but why hadn't she appeared among the Syndicate's leaders?
Hal knew that the Syndicate's internal hierarchy was based on strength, so with Halo's abilities, she was fully qualified for a leadership position.
She should at least be stronger than Ocean Master, right?
But she wasn't one of the leaders. Hal analyzed that either Ocean Master had some amazing skills he hadn't displayed, or Halo's own abilities had a significant drawback.
He leaned towards the latter.
Hal raised his hand and materialized a shield, blocking the Red Halo's heat-melting beam, then flew to dodge the Impact generated by the Orange Halo. Explosions echoed behind him.
He watched the beams reflect back and forth between the high-rise's floor-to-ceiling windows, and suddenly a thought flashed in his mind: That's it!
Halo's ability had a very strong light attribute, so it could be reflected by mirrors!
Hal feigned a move in the air, and Halo immediately fell for it, firing a Red Halo at him. This was the strongest attack among all the Emotional Spectrum energies she possessed... she loved using it.
But as she fired the red light, she saw the Green Lantern suddenly turn his head, tearing off the giant billboard sticker behind him. The smooth metal panel clearly reflected Halo's entire figure.
The Red Beam instantly bounced off the mirrored surface, directly hitting Halo. She experienced the power of the beam she had created herself!
It was very strange; her abilities included offense and control, but there was no Halo purely for self-defense. Thus, she was directly knocked back by her own power.
Hal guessed correctly; this was her fatal weakness!
No wonder, by exploiting this weakness, even Ocean Master could easily defeat her.
Halo, still somewhat dazed, stood up and couldn't help but say to the others cooperating on the comms, "He's already discovered my weakness. Aren't you guys ready yet?"
"Shit! How did you expose yourself so quickly?"
The Syndicate members all knew Halo's weakness, but they thought she could hold out longer.
But how much time had passed?
"If you think you can do it, then you come yourself!" Halo wasn't going to indulge these people; if no one supported her, she would escape now.
So someone in the channel had to say, "Wait a moment, Canary has already rushed over. By the time, she should be arriving soon!"
Hal had just approached Halo, preparing to capture her, when suddenly a huge shriek came from beside him. This sound wave, like a tangible Impact, sent him flying.
"Black Canary?"
Because it was so similar, the Green Lantern almost mistook her, but he quickly realized that the Birds of Prey were not in this World.
"It's a doppelganger."
After realizing, the Green Lantern immediately counterattacked, sticking a muzzle made of green light directly onto her face.
This person's weakness was even more obvious; apart from her voice, she had no other abilities.
But she wasn't alone. Halo, seeing someone come to assist her, immediately perked up and continued to grapple with the Green Lantern.
They didn't necessarily have to defeat the Green Lantern; after all, the Green Lantern wouldn't kill people.
They just needed to stall him, and these superheroes had another weakness: they cared more about the lives of innocent civilians than their own.
Innocent civilians? They were everywhere here!
Meanwhile, the other "remnants" had already breached the super prison.
The guards immediately adopted defensive formations, while some returned directly inside the prison to press the emergency signal transmitter.
But the Green Lantern and the Flash, who were closest, were both very busy and couldn't arrive for at least ten minutes.
Ten minutes? That was enough for the "remnants."
Breakdance, with his stylish dance moves, fired shockwaves from both hands, shattering the firearms of all the guards in front of him.
"Make love, not war, Babe!" Breakdance danced on the guards' bodies, uttering this classic line with a touch of dark humor.
Red Arrow drew his bow and arrow, aiming at one of the control rooms. The arrow left his hand, directly pinning down the staff member who was sending the signal.
"Now, we're in charge here!" Lobo roared, slamming his fists down and collapsing the floor of the super prison.
Several layers below, there was a huge metal cell.
Elongated Man stretched his body, looking all around the cell, but found no gaps for intrusion.
Lobo pounded on the metal door, but unfortunately, his strength was slightly lacking; the metal door only dented slightly inwards.
"Gypsy, it's up to you!"
Gypsy might be Madame Xanadu's doppelganger; she was skilled in some dark witchcraft.
She nodded, placed her palm against the metal door, then her hand sank into the door, and finally, her whole body merged into it.
On the other side of the door, Gypsy saw Ultraman, emaciated and curled into a ball.
Ultraman's eyes instantly snapped open, his savage, Beast-like gaze instantly gripped Gypsy's heart, filling her with terror.
"Gypsy..."
Ultraman closed his eyes, his nostrils twitching, then suddenly his eyes snapped open again.
"You have Kryptonite on you!"
Gypsy opened her palm, and several pieces of Kryptonite lay within it.
Ultraman moved incredibly fast. He lunged forward, snatching the Kryptonite from Gypsy's hand.
"Ah~ That's the feeling~"
Goosebumps rose all over Gypsy's body.
"Snap," Ultraman crushed the Kryptonite, deeply inhaling the powder into his nasal cavity. Strength rapidly returned to his body.
He opened his eyes, and his heat vision immediately destroyed the solar lights around the prison, plunging the cell into darkness.
"Yes, I like it this way."
In the darkness, Ultraman's crimson eyes turned. His ferocious expression flickered in the red light, and Gypsy felt as if she was seeing a demon from Hell...
