Chapter 66: Diana's Mission
"Paradise Island, an island ruled by the Amazons. ”
Within Ethan's magic shield, Steve Tremor's muttering didn't avoid his ears, and now he didn't have much to do but just have a casual chat with the man who was supposed to be Diana's first love.
"Amazons?"
Ethan pointed behind Steve, and the man looked in the direction Ethan was pointing, and there were many people on the cliff not far away—all women wearing very old armor and riding on horses with swords and bows.
Steve is not stupid, as a good spy, his mind is very flexible, and when he turned his head and looked at Ethan and Logan's outfits, he immediately came to the conclusion that these two people were not natives of the island, and seemed to be from the outside world.
"What about you?"
"I'm just a passer-by, staying here for a while. ”
Steve's expression was obviously unbelieving, several people were still surrounded by that kind of white energy shield, which was an ability that ordinary people could exert? But the other party didn't want to answer him, and there was no way, so he could only turn his head to look at the only woman who was not 'trapped' by the shield.
He had been worried that the young woman would be injured by the incessant rifle attacks, but he found himself overthinking, and the woman jumped to the surface of the sea a hundred meters away with a slight leap, and then kicked one of the German soldiers over, and even from a long distance he could tell that the one who was kicked would definitely not survive.
Then the woman stood on the boat and kept chopping motions, and the miraculous thing was that he didn't see her holding a weapon in her hand at all, but with her movements, there would always be soldiers cut down, and there seemed to be blood splashing out.
He couldn't figure out what kind of strange situation this was, and then looked at the two standing next to him, Steve couldn't help but take two steps out, which would make him feel safer.
The battle on the sea ended quickly, and this group of ordinary soldiers could not do any damage to Diana at all, and it only took a few minutes for Diana to be wiped out.
They did not set foot on the shores of Paradise Island until they died, and Antiope, who was supposed to die in this encounter, was sitting on a tall horse at this time, admiring Diana's heroic battle.
Hippolyta also looked at Diana who was fighting on the sea with a smile on her face at this time, she felt that her most correct decision was not to insist that Diana be an ordinary girl - the facts also proved that Diana was not ordinary at all, she could easily jump a hundred meters away, and the best warriors on the entire paradise island could not hurt her in the slightest, plus that powerful divine power, such Diana was destined to fight with Ares.
"Is this an omen?"
After all, the Amazons are a race created by the gods of Olympus, and Hippolyta has lived for an unknown number of years, even if she doesn't have any special abilities, when she sees an inexplicable enemy suddenly breaking into the realm of Paradise Island, she also has a premonition that the peaceful life seems to be over, and the enchantment, which has not had problems since the time of the gods, is gradually losing its due role.
"Perhaps......" Antiope looked at a few 'outsiders' on the beach, and it seemed that there were more and more outsiders on the paradise island, and the Amazons would never be able to return to the peaceful, comfortable and isolated life of the past: "Diana is probably leaving." ”
She will usher in her fate, but she doesn't know what kind of changes will happen to the paradise island, and whether it is Antiope or Hippolyta, there is no bottom in her heart.
Maybe the mysterious Ethan knew something, but neither of them wanted to ask.
As the battle on the sea ended, Paradise Island seemed to be calm again,
Naturally, the Amazon warriors will clean up the sea and restore it to its previous state, while Hippolyta brings a few people to Steve and immediately surrounds and controls Ethan after removing the magic shield.
Now all the problems are focused on Steve Trevor, and Steve also realizes that his situation seems to be not good, and honestly raises his hands to signal that he will not resist, even if in his eyes, the weapons of the Amazons on the other side are very backward and primitive.
"Identify yourself, strange outsider. ”
"Uh...... I can't say. "Steve is a spy, and according to the rules he can't reveal his identity, although the group in front of him should have nothing to do with Germany. But the rules are dead, and as a soldier, he can only honestly abide by them.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a spy from the British side. Logan was more aware of this kind of thing, and directly revealed Steve's identity: "I don't know what you did, you actually attracted so many Germans to chase and kill." ”
Although his identity has been exposed, Steve still shakes his head and says he can't say it.
Seeing him like this, Hippolyta was very dissatisfied, Ethan watched the play with an indifferent face, and Steve's insistence, although admirable, was unfortunately meaningless, because there was something on the paradise island that was particularly suitable for asking questions.
It was supposed to be kept by Hippolyta, and it was only taken out when needed. However, as Diana's ability became stronger and stronger, it became more and more difficult to find a weapon to take advantage of, and this mantra noose had already been handed over to Diana, but Diana, who was more accustomed to using battle crosses nowadays, did not use it often.
At this time, it is the best place where the Truth Cord can come in handy, and Diana is not polite, she casually takes the Truth Cord off her waist, and then gently swings her wrist, and the Truth Cord wraps firmly around Steve, and emits a golden glow.
"What is this?" Maybe it's because of the weird things he's seen today, Steve looks a little panicked when he sees himself entangled in a rope that emits golden light, and he finds himself a little unable to control his mouth, almost saying something when he thinks: "It's hot! You don't want to roast me and eat me, do you?"
With no one paying attention to him, Diana tugged at the noose on her hand so that it could wrap around it tighter and avoid being freed by the other party.
"What's your name, who is it?"
Steve, who was still nervously looking at the rope in front of him, said his identity without half a second of hesitation.
"My name is Steve Trevor, a captain in the U.S. Expeditionary Force, a pilot, a soldier with the designation 8141921, and I'm responsible for providing intelligence support to the British...... I'm not supposed to say all of this, what the hell is this?"
Steve, who realized his situation halfway through, panicked a little, and as soon as he stopped talking, he felt the rope around him get hotter.
Logan laughed directly after seeing Steve's embarrassment: "I said, this guy is a spy." ”
The ensuing interrogation revealed Steve's mission, what he had done in the Ottoman Empire, and why he had attracted so many German troops.
It turned out that this Steve received information that Dr. Poison was working on a new type of chemical weapon in the Ottoman Empire, so he rushed over to investigate the specific details, and took the opportunity to steal Dr. Poison's notes, and then snatched a plane and blew up the opponent's workshop.
When rushing back to send intelligence reminders to the British, the plane crashed and landed on Paradise Island, and the German troops chasing behind were wiped out by Diana, and the next thing was to be interrogated by the Amazon family of Paradise Island on the beach.
Steve, who had explained almost everything clearly, did not show frustration, and after explaining the matter, he hoped that the group in front of him would let him go, so that he could go back and send the information back in time to avoid huge losses on the British side.
"If I can get the intelligence to the British side and save the British side from suffering huge losses, then this war will soon be over. If not, the Germans would probably crush us with this weapon, which would have caused very many casualties, killing and wounding not only soldiers, but also countless civilians......"
I have to admit that Steve's thinking and eloquence are good, and after realizing that he can't resist this strange power, he simply goes along with it, and puts himself on the side of justice, so that he may be able to persuade this group of so-called Amazons to let him go.
In fact, in the original plot, he did achieve his goal, and this time it also caught Diana's attention.
After hearing about the sheer scale of the war, Diana had realized something, but unlike the naïve she in the original story, she had thought of the other side. Once again, she habitually looked at Ethan, and although she still didn't give any clear hints, Diana still understood something and made her own decision.
Steve, who had regained his freedom, let out a long sigh of relief, the feeling of being bound by the mantra noose was not so comfortable, and there would be a sense of prostration afterwards, which forced him to sit on the sand and look up at the young woman who had put away the noose and walked up to the leader who looked like the group.
"I'm going to the battlefield. ”
Diana did not ask Hippolyta if she could leave, but was very determined to tell her mother that she was going to fulfill her mission.
As early as when Steve said the huge scale of this war, Hippolyta realized this, and there must be the shadow of Ares behind this scale of war.
She will not be like Diana in the past, naively thinking that the war was instigated by Ares, and that the war can be eliminated by eliminating Ares. However, she knew that such a large-scale war would definitely attract the attention of the god of war, and even appear somewhere on the battlefield in person.
Diana's fate is to destroy the god of war.
So when her daughter came to her, she was not surprised at all, but looked at Diana, who had grown up, with complicated eyes.
"Pack all your gear, and don't forget the armor you've always loved. ”
