Green Lantern stood firm, the glowing energy from his lantern ring radiating powerfully as he aimed the weapon in his hand. A blinding beam of green light shot forward, striking a group of aliens with such force that they were blown off their feet. Their bodies flew backward, scattering like leaves in a storm. Screams echoed through the chamber as the panicked crowd scrambled to get away from the relentless hero.
But Green Lantern wasn't about to let up. His massive green mech construct, the Gundam, towered over the battlefield, an unshakable symbol of strength. With its massive glowing sword in one hand and an energy cannon in the other, the mech plowed through the chaotic scene. Each swing of its sword cleaved through the enemies, while the cannon unleashed bursts of green energy that exploded like fireworks, scattering the remaining forces.
Some of the aliens tried to regroup and launch a counterattack, but it was futile. The green armor protecting Hal's constructs was too strong to penetrate. No matter what weapons they used or how bravely they charged, their efforts crumbled against the sheer power of Green Lantern's willpower.
At the same time, Hal turned his attention to Bolang, who had managed to free himself from the swarm of green swords that had trapped him earlier. Bolang gripped his black blade tightly, his eyes locked on Hal with unrelenting determination. He sprinted toward the Green Lantern, hoping to land a decisive blow. But just as he closed in, a massive green fist appeared out of thin air, barreling toward him like a wrecking ball.
Bolang's instincts kicked in as he raised his blade to block. The blade met the green fist with a deafening crash, and the impact sent a wave of energy rippling outward. Bolang grunted as the force of the blow sent him flying backward. He tumbled through the air and crashed into the ground, skidding several feet before coming to a stop. Groaning, he pushed himself up, his confidence shaken but not entirely broken.
Meanwhile, three figures emerged from the chaos, shouting as they charged toward Hal. These were high-ranking warriors from the Second League and the Avar United—seasoned fighters known for their skill and ferocity. They had watched the battle unfold from the sidelines, their earlier confidence giving way to hesitation as they witnessed Green Lantern's overwhelming power.
Even as they approached, their nerves were evident. They shouted loudly, trying to bolster their courage, but their movements were tentative. None of them wanted to be the first to attack. They exchanged uneasy glances, silently urging each other to go first.
Finally, realizing they couldn't hold back any longer, the three charged together. But before they could close the distance, two hissing sounds filled the air. Bright, high-energy blasts streaked toward them, striking two of the warriors squarely in the chest. The force of the blasts sent them flying backward, their bodies crumpling as they hit the ground.
The remaining fighter skidded to a halt, his courage evaporating as he turned toward the source of the attack. His eyes widened as Iron Man stepped forward, his red-and-gold armor gleaming against the fiery backdrop of the battlefield. The iconic suit shimmered with energy as its twin hand cannons powered up for another strike.
Iron Man smirked, his voice cutting through the chaos. "You looked like you needed some backup, Hal."
Hal glanced over his shoulder, a wry smile crossing his face. "About time you showed up. Taking the scenic route?"
"Traffic was a nightmare," Tony quipped. With a quick motion, he raised his left arm, firing another blast from his repulsor cannon that sent a charging alien flying into a nearby wall. His right arm unleashed a missile that exploded in the middle of another group, scattering them in all directions.
As the alien forces scrambled to regroup, Hal extended his ring hand, summoning a new construct—a massive green fighter jet. The sleek aircraft floated in the air, its guns spinning to life. A hail of green bullets rained down on the battlefield, cutting through the ranks of the enemy. Missiles launched from the jet's wings, striking the attackers with pinpoint precision. Explosions lit up the chamber as fireballs consumed entire squads.
Tony's HUD display flickered with warnings as he scanned the battlefield. He spotted a group of aliens attempting to sneak around the glowing green barrier Hal had created to protect the vortex door. "Nice try," Tony muttered under his breath. He fired up his thrusters and launched into the air, releasing a volley of missiles from his shoulder-mounted launchers. The projectiles streaked toward their targets, detonating with a series of loud booms that sent shockwaves rippling across the chamber.
As Tony turned to chase down the survivors, another alarm blared in his helmet. A collision warning flashed across his HUD, and he spun around just in time to see a gray-white blur streaking toward him. The flying creature slammed into him with incredible force, knocking him out of the air. Tony's armored body crashed to the ground, sparks flying as he skidded across the floor.
Groaning, Tony activated his thrusters to propel himself upright. His HUD adjusted to reveal his attacker—a grotesque creature with bony wings and a skeletal frame. Its eyes glowed with a malevolent light as it let out a piercing screech and dove toward him again. Tony braced himself, ready to counter.
The distraction gave the remaining aliens a moment to regroup. Encouraged by Iron Man's apparent vulnerability, they surged forward, shouting as they charged. But before they could reach him, a thunderous roar shook the battlefield.
A massive figure barreled into the fray, his footsteps shaking the ground. The Levi giant, a towering brute of a man, plowed through the crowd like a living battering ram. His enormous fists sent aliens flying with every swing, and his voice boomed over the chaos.
"What are you idiots doing? You dare touch my father?!" the giant bellowed, his rage palpable. He grabbed one unfortunate alien by the legs and swung him like a club, smashing him into the ground with enough force to crack the stone floor.
The aliens froze, their earlier confidence evaporating. "Father?" one of them muttered in confusion, glancing around. Even those who had been knocked down seemed too stunned to react, their minds struggling to make sense of the giant's declaration.
Hal raised an eyebrow, glancing at the towering figure with a bemused expression. "Your 'father,' huh?" he muttered under his breath. "Kids these days."
The Levi giant roared again, delivering a powerful kick that sent another alien flying across the chamber. His attacks were so fast and forceful that the remaining enemies could barely keep up. One by one, they fell before his onslaught, leaving the battlefield littered with groaning bodies.
With the giant's unexpected help, the battle quickly turned in favor of Hal and Tony. The two heroes worked seamlessly together, carving through the alien forces with brutal efficiency. Green energy constructs and high-tech weaponry filled the air, cutting down anyone who dared to approach.
Hal's constructs ranged from fighter jets to tanks to mechanized suits of armor, each one more elaborate than the last. They tore through the enemy ranks, leaving no room for escape. Tony's repulsor blasts and missiles added to the chaos, each strike precise and devastating.
The chamber was soon reduced to a fiery wasteland. Smoke filled the air, and the ground was littered with the bodies of fallen aliens. Those who were still conscious groaned in pain, clutching their wounds as they tried to crawl to safety.
The surviving aliens—those who had managed to avoid the worst of the destruction—stared at the two heroes with wide, fearful eyes. Their earlier bravado was gone, replaced by the grim realization that they were completely outmatched.
Slowly, the remaining fighters began to retreat, their dreams of reaching the temple shattered. One by one, they turned and ran, abandoning the battlefield to save their own lives.
Hal and Tony stood amidst the carnage, their expressions unreadable. The battle seemed to be over—or so they thought.
Without warning, a blur of white shot through the chamber, moving faster than anyone could react. The figure struck Hal square in the chest, the impact sending him flying across the room. He crashed into the ground with a loud thud, sliding several feet before coming to a stop.
The battlefield fell silent as everyone turned to see the new arrival. Whatever it was, it had just changed the game.
