Seeing Captain America's sudden transformation, Nick Fury immediately ordered all Agents to be on high alert.
"Captain!"
Fury tried calling out, wanting to confirm that the current Captain America was still Captain America and not controlled by something strange!
However, Captain America did not respond to him, because at this moment, several ironclad rules appeared in Captain America's mind:
First, always maintain free will, but must unconditionally obey the God of Apokolips's commands;
Second, respect other Corps members and cooperate with them;
Third, respect life, but do not oppose the use of violence;
Fourth, uphold the honor of the Corps and the glory of Apokolips;
Kytheron had directly deleted most of the Green Lantern Corps' original ten ironclad rules, because his goal was different from that of the Little Blue People next door, who superficially called themselves Guardians of the Universe but were actually the Universe's biggest troublemakers.
In Kytheron's view, Willpower was originally just a type of power; anyone with firm beliefs, whether good or bad, was qualified to use this power.
Anyway, no matter if it was good or bad, as long as they fell, Kytheron would ultimately benefit, and that was enough.
As for whether any life would use this power to fulfill its evil ambitions, that was not something Kytheron cared about!
Captain America's brow furrowed after seeing the first commandment; he strongly supported the first part about maintaining free will, but the latter part, 'must unconditionally obey the God of Apokolips's commands,' made him disagree!
Seeing Captain America frowning and looking unwell, Fury made a gesture.
The next second, the Agents, who were already prepared, aimed several tranquilizer guns at the completely green Captain America; as soon as Fury gave the order, they would immediately fire.
At this moment, Captain America also saw the Agents' actions, but he didn't pay attention, because these precautionary measures were all discussed between him and Fury beforehand.
"I'm fine!"
Hearing the familiar tone, Fury breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, Captain America's existence was a crucial part of the plan he envisioned.
This was an iconic figure; only this World War II hero could be its core.
"Captain, how do you feel now? Have there been any changes?"
Fury stepped forward and asked Captain America about his current condition.
"Excellent, I might have gained some different power!"
Although he somewhat disagreed with the so-called commandments, Captain America still felt that this Lantern Ring might be of great use to him.
As he spoke, the Lantern Ring on his hand flashed, and a familiar round shield appeared, but it was entirely green.
Then, Captain America himself slowly lifted off the ground and floated in the air.
"Immediately detect the surrounding energy fluctuations and scan the composition of that shield."
Seeing this situation, Fury immediately had his research staff begin recording data.
After experiencing the thrill of free flight, Captain America landed, still wanting more, because he knew there were more important things now.
Before Fury could ask, Captain America voluntarily spoke:
"This Lantern Ring allows me to use a special power called Willpower; anything I think of, I can materialize with this power."
"Perhaps we need to find a more suitable place to test it now, preferably a deserted area in the wilderness!"
Fury, instantly understanding his meaning, immediately had his Agents make arrangements!
"Captain, can this power be trusted? Have you detected any hidden dangers?"
Hearing Fury say this, Captain America did not hide anything, but directly told him the ironclad rules he had learned.
"God of Apokolips!"
This name made Fury ponder.
"Previously, during the struggle with the Mutants, there was an ancient Mutant named Apocalypse who called himself a God. Later, he took a group of Mutants to some unknown place. Could there be a connection?"
"Perhaps, to figure out this problem, we should visit another Mutant leader after the experiment is over!"
Captain America was completely confused by all this talk of Mutants and Gods.
However, he understood that Fury must know something, and he now felt that he should properly integrate into this modern society!
And when Nick Fury and Coulson walked alone together, this Captain America super fan had a strange expression on his face.
"Coulson, do you have something you want to say?"
Fury couldn't help but ask, looking at him.
"Officer, I wonder if you've read DC comics? Captain's appearance just now was very similar to a character in the comics, and the power he used was almost identical to that of the Green Lantern in the comics!"
Hearing this, Fury stopped in his tracks.
"Find that comic you mentioned and let me see it."
"Yes! Officer!"
The comic matter was put aside for now, because the experiment was about to begin!
Soon, a transport plane landed in a desolate, uninhabited desert in New Mexico.
Around it, a temporary camp had already been set up, fully equipped with various experimental tools.
Captain America and his group descended from the transport plane and walked directly to the pre-designated area.
"Captain, you can show off to your heart's content!"
Fury gestured to Captain America and then stepped back.
Next, a green band flew out from the Lantern Ring on Captain America's hand, directly enveloped his body, and instantly transformed into a battle suit.
Then, with the somewhat limited imagination of this antique soldier, he materialized all the weapons he had ever seen on the battlefield.
Even so, the power, which was not inferior to, and even stronger than, actual weapons themselves, still greatly shocked the researchers conducting the tests.
Moreover, that green energy could not only be used for direct attack, but also for healing, constructing force fields...
It could be said that Captain America at this moment was a multi-functional super soldier, integrating output, tank, healing, and support.
Although the Lantern Rings made by Kytheron were only simplified versions compared to the original Green Lantern Ring, they also had their unique advantages.
Because these Lantern Rings only served as an intermediary between each host and Willpower energy, they lacked the functions of a supercomputer found in the original, and besides, Kytheron didn't have the book of oa to connect to.
As for whether Kytheron would gradually improve them in the future, that would depend on Kytheron's mood!
However! Compared to their shortcomings, the Lantern Rings made by Kytheron had greater advantages.
Because there was no need to restrict the Lantern Ring users like the Little Blue People did, these Lantern Rings had no charging requirements.
In other words, as long as the user's Willpower could support his combat or other actions, he would not have to consider the problem of insufficient energy.
"Captain, if I'm not mistaken, the ability this Lantern Ring grants you should be related to your imagination."
"Perhaps it's time you learned more!"
Nick Fury deduced the Green Lantern Ring's ability simply by what Captain America had demonstrated.
"Yes, these are all I can imagine right now, though I might be able to create something different, like a flying pet dog."
As he spoke, a green energy beam shot from the Lantern Ring in his hand and truly transformed into a dog shape, barking a few times at Fury. Then, the dog grew wings and flapped them, flying into the air.
