American comics: I became a god at the beginning, I chose to practice both science and magic

Chapter 085 The battle of ideas

Oa star.

Hal had been training with Sinestro for several days.

Before he betrayed the Green Lantern Corps, Sinestro was a very charismatic man.

His training for new members was very military-style, and Hal had served in the military himself, so he adapted well to it.

Most importantly, Sinestro is not like his superior on Earth, who is incompetent, bossy, and likes to suppress his subordinates.

On the contrary, Sinestro was happy to teach Hal how to use the various abilities of the lantern ring more flexibly.

After all, Dane's training method is just a wild way. To be more formal, Sinestro's method is more effective.

Moreover, Sinestro is much better than Hal in using the ring. Whether it is the use of abilities or the strength of willpower, he has always been stronger than Hal.

This convinced Hal of his abilities and also gave him a strong competitive spirit. He wanted to become stronger than Sinestro to repay his training.

Sinestro also admired Hal's perseverance, especially during his training, he found that this Earthling had great potential.

His ability to use the lantern ring improved faster than people from other planets.

As both of them admired each other, they soon developed a mutual understanding.

Finally one day, Sinestro decided to test Hal to see if there was any possibility of pulling him into his camp.

It’s no wonder he’s so anxious, because the weapons master from the planet Kovad has already sent news.

The new weapon he wanted was almost ready!

After the training ended that day, Sinestro did not leave immediately as usual, but waited for Hal.

"Are you waiting for me?"

Hal calmed down the turmoil caused by training and looked at Sinestro strangely.

"Yes, I think it's time, Hal. Would you like to come and visit my planet?"

Huh? What do you mean by going to your house?

Hal's features were squeezed together, his face full of rejection.

Is homosexuality very popular in the universe?

Fortunately, Sinestro couldn't hear his inner voice, otherwise Hal would have been beaten up this time.

Sinestro sighed, "What I've been teaching you lately is just how to become a warrior."

"But to become a true guardian of order, it is not enough to just possess these."

He said to Hal proudly:

"My home planet is located in the sector under my jurisdiction. It is recognized as the most peaceful and orderly planet in all sectors, bar none!"

Hal was very curious when he heard this. He couldn't help but ask, "What about the crime rate?"

"The crime rate is almost zero!" Sinestro said flatly.

Hal became even more curious. The universe is full of wonders. There are even planets with no criminals at all.

Is it possible to replicate the experience of this planet on its home planet?

Let the earth also become a paradise without sin?

Hal was moved.

Sinestro saw this and struck while the iron was hot.

"Hal, don't you want to see what true peace is like?"

"I can definitely pass this experience on to you. Believe me, this experience can definitely be seamlessly replicated on all civilized planets!"

Hal was persuaded by his words and nodded: "If there really is such a paradise, I want to go and see it."

"If there really is a way to eliminate evil, I'm willing to learn."

"Very good, then without further ado, let's set off now!"

"Now?" Hal asked in surprise.

No, is it such a rush?

"Green Lantern's style is swift and decisive! There can be no slacking off when it comes to maintaining order!"

Hal shrugged helplessly. He didn't have many friends on Oa Star anyway, so he just went.

Sinestro's home planet is Koruga, located in sector 1417.

From the perspective of outer space, this is a very beautiful planet, and Hal originally entered this planet with great expectations.

But when he actually saw the living conditions of the Koruga people, his good impression of Sinestro instantly took a 180-degree turn.

All the Koruga people were terrified when they saw Sinestro, and they bowed to him in fear.

"Why do they bow to us?" Hal asked him puzzledly.

"Because we are the ones who maintain order, we deserve respect."

Hal accepted his statement reluctantly.

He tried to tell those people not to bow their heads, but they ran away in fear.

The lantern ring had an automatic translation function, so Hal was able to understand what they were saying.

"He's his! They're together!"

Everyone dispersed immediately after hearing this, and no one dared to get close to Hal.

This made him doubt Sinestro's words even more.

He visited the planet with doubts.

Sinestro seems to have some political affairs under his belt. He holds a very high position on this planet, and everyone... fears him.

Hal could sense this.

If a ruler is feared more than respected by his people, then there is definitely something wrong with him.

Hal decided to find out.

So he disguised himself and sneaked into the planet.

However, he was shocked by the real living conditions of the Koruga people.

From the Koruga people, he learned that Sinestro was the true ruler of the planet.

It is he who makes all the laws here.

He strictly demanded that all Koruga people obey his laws and not violate them in any way.

The identity of Green Lantern gives him natural authority, and he represents the most "righteous" person in this sector!

In desperation, everyone can only live in accordance with Sinestro's requirements.

The slightest violation of the commandments will result in severe punishment.

Hal witnessed with his own eyes that a poor man was arrested and whipped by the law enforcement team just because he took a little more than the free ration.

By the time he walked out of the law enforcement field, half his life was gone.

This is not utopia, this is dictatorship! It is tyranny!

It is the mountain that Sinestro imposes on all Koruga people!

Hal was furious; he felt he had been deceived.

Back at the Administration Building, he and Sinestro had a violent argument.

"What on earth have you done on this planet! This is not peace! This is not justice! This is dictatorship!"

"It is undoubtedly evil!"

Upon hearing this, Sinestro angrily grabbed Hal's neck and lifted him up high.

"What do you know? This is the ultimate form of order! Treating everyone equally is absolute fairness!"

"Fair? You enslaved your own people, and you call that fair?"

Sinestro sneered:

"Why do you think there are no criminals in Koruga? If I weren't monitoring everyone on this planet, they would be just like the scum of other planets, constantly committing crimes just to grab a few resources."

"And Green Lantern has to be like a garbage collector, constantly sweeping away this garbage."

"But I'm tired of this. Why do we have to be just sweepers?"

"Why can't we do more to address the problem of criminals at the source?"

"Is this the answer you found?" Hal looked at him in disbelief.

"Become a dictatorial tyrant and make everyone obey your rules?"

Sinestro remained unmoved. "Everyone has to follow the rules, 250 Hal, even you and me."

"Rules, when used properly, can be the best weapon to maintain order. This is what I learned from the guardians of Oa."

"It's just that I'm a little bolder than them. I took it a step further, you see!"

He lifted Hal out of the window and let him look at the lifeless but orderly pedestrians and vehicles outside.

"That's the answer. Everyone has a role to play in society, and everyone just needs to do their part well."

"Isn't this kind of society stable enough? Isn't this state of affairs ideal enough?"

Hal struggled to look back, trying to meet Sinestro's face.

"But then... what about the citizens' self-will?"

"What if someone doesn't want to play the role that's been assigned to them? What if they want to pursue the role they want?"

Senistu said coldly: "Anyone who may disrupt order must be punished. Free will is sometimes not a good thing."

If Dane were here right now, he would probably understand what Sinestro meant.

But he would also object to Sinestro's methods, which were too brutal.

The current Koruga seems to be in good order, but in fact it is just a temporary accumulation of social pressure, and there will always be a day when it will rebound.

According to Dane, when dealing with social issues, one should neither be too left nor too right.

Sometimes you just have to have both ends.

In this world or in the entire universe, as long as there is intelligent life and self-will.

Different opinions will cause divisions in the camps. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for an absolutely perfect system to exist.

Sinestro may not realize that, although they have different directions, he and Hal are both idealists.

Chapter 086 Hal's Will

Hal cannot accept Sinestro's ideas, and he questions Sinestro's soul.

"Does the Legion know what you've done here?"

Sinestro said nothing.

Of course they didn't know, because such behavior is strictly prohibited in the Green Lantern Corps.

Hal didn't hear the answer, but he already knew it.

He shouted loudly, and his strong willpower burst out with amazing energy, suddenly breaking free from Sinestro's restraints.

Green light illuminated half of the sky, and he flew in the sky side by side with Sinestro.

"Sinestro, you don't deserve to be Green Lantern!"

Sinestro was furious when he heard this, and thought that you might not have been born when I was the Green Lantern maintaining order in the universe.

When will it be your turn to teach me a lesson?

He used the ring to materialize a meteorite. At an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, a green meteorite was constructed like jade.

Sinestro pulled hard, and the meteorite fell with huge mass and kinetic energy.

Hal looked back and wondered if this could hit anyone.
