"I never imagined that my homeland would end its millennial mission in such a way. ”

Diana leaned down and picked up a stone on the ground of this broken island, on which there were traces of being burned and melted by flames, and on its surface, there were fragments of swords that melted into it, just like the completely destroyed paradise island in front of her, even the most ordinary stone was stained with traces of war, and the war was displayed in front of the Amazon princess in such a vivid posture.

The sea breeze, which was no longer calm, blew through her hair, blowing the silky long hair up, but the familiar sea breeze was no longer familiar with the smell.

After being burned by the fire of creation, the sea is dead... There are no creatures, no hope, only the countless alien creatures and the heroic bodies of warriors mixed in, and this sea is the Dead Sea of the New World, the New Era.

It is a victim of the collision of the old and the new, and the meaning it carries is so heavy for both the gods and the prisoners.

"There is no eternity in any kingship, my daughter. ”

Behind Diana, who was recovering from a serious illness, was her mother, Queen Hippolyta, although the queen had strongly stated that she would not leave her country, but after really seeing the outcome of this war, in her heart, she was still extremely grateful to Cyber for his toughness, at least the forced expulsion, which gave her and her people hope to live.

Instead of dying with Paradise Island.

"I heard that you submitted an immigration petition to Utopia? My mother, as far as I can remember, this is not a choice you would make. ”

Diana turned her head and looked at her mother, the relationship between the mother and daughter was actually not good, especially 100 years ago, when Diana left with the human pilot Tefrey who broke into Paradise Island, a deep rift had appeared between them, but when Diana returned to Paradise Island to fight for her, this rift was already being mended.

Hearing her daughter's joking voice, Her Majesty shook her head helplessly, took the red plush cloak from the hand of the attendant, and put it on her daughter's body, she looked at Diana with some sadness, after being extracted by Ares, Diana almost died, although she was finally resurrected with the efforts of doctors and mages, but also fell ill.

The body of the Amazon's goddess of war has been so weak, and this weakness does not know when it will be completely recovered.

"Our people need a land to live in, Diana, our culture, everything we insist on is incompatible with human civilization, especially in the current bad situation, except for utopia, no one will accept us, even those evil gods, will ostracize us because of the beliefs we hold onto... I don't want to, but I'm a queen first and foremost, and I can't make decisions based on my personal preferences. ”

Queen Hippolyta stretched out her hand to smooth her daughter's hair, and said gently:

"You've been to Utopia for yourself, don't you think it's the best place for us to go after the destruction of Paradise Island?"

"Are you saying it's far from war, or is it stealthy enough?"

Diana shook her head, she looked back at the paradise island in front of her, which had become a small island submerged in the Dead Sea, and she whispered:

"It can't be like this anymore, Queen Mother, we can no longer bind the people with ancient traditions, we have to go out, we have to untie the shackles, we have to integrate into human civilization, we have to become a member of this world completely, instead of guarding an island and living our own lives like in the past, the blood of Olympus is not humble or lowly, we don't need to hide ourselves. ”

This remark made Queen Hippolyta's face change greatly, and her hands holding her daughter's shoulders tightened:

"You have integrated our people into the human race? Our numbers are so scarce that once we blend in, we will be completely wiped out without even splashing into it, and at that time, who will remember the glory of Olympus? Who will be able to pass on the true stories? This is not our tradition, this is a betrayal of our blood! Diana!"

"It's too dangerous!"

"But not fitting in will only make us die faster!Queen Mother, don't tell me you don't see the envy in the eyes of the people when they spend time with other people in Mexico... If there's one thing I've learned in 100 years in the human world, it's..."

Diana looked back at her mother, looked at her without fear, and whispered:

"Man can never fight against himself, this is a war that will not be won, you can continue to maintain the blockade, but you can't trap the people's desire for freedom in their thoughts, the mind cannot be killed, the queen mother, times have changed... The sacrifice of Cyber Hawke and the Old One did not just bring hope to the world, it also gave us an opportunity. ”

"Rather than continue to blockade and finally lose in a mutiny, I hope that our people can join this millennium of great change as part of saving civilization, and truly win a place in the new world for the Amazon..."

She looked at the Queen, and she said in a deep voice:

"I am the princess of the Amazon, the queen mother, I will eventually become the king of the Amazon, just like you have insisted on the protection of the Amazon for 1000 years, I also have my own responsibility, that's right, I have to do it!"

"As for the civilization of Olympus, it has been destroyed by time, you are like Ares, the queen mother, you are all poor people who are immersed in the glory of the past, listen to me, it is time to untie your shackles, you can live for at least another 1,000 years!

She embraced her mother in both hands and whispered in her ear:

"Enough, enough... Set yourself free. ”

The queen, who was bound by Diana, only needed a slight struggle to break free from her daughter's arms, but in the end, her expression changed from disappointment, to anger, from anger to calm, and finally to a hint of sadness, she sighed, took off the crown on her head, and placed it on her daughter's head, she looked at Diana with a very sentimental gaze, and she whispered:

"My daughter, at last, has grown up, has her own thoughts, has her own followers, and has her own prestige, perhaps, you have become a qualified queen ... At least more qualified than me. ”

"No, Queen Mother. ”

Diana let go of her mother with a smile, as if this change of throne was just a game between mother and daughter, but only the parties concerned knew how dangerous it was, but fortunately, it finally ended in a peaceful manner.

"There will never be a greater queen than you. ”

Queen Hippolyta, who had laid down her crown, looked back at the lifeless sea, and she suddenly spoke:

"My daughter, what the hell is going on with that overlord?"

"Huh?"

Diana paused for a moment, and subconsciously said: "No, we are just ordinary friends, we have fought together, we have fought against enemies together, that's all." ”

"I don't think the average friend would risk offending a god to cross the world to save you..."

The queen said thoughtfully, "Are you really sure that you are just ordinary friends?"

"That's because you don't know him, Queen Mother, he's the kind of person who can be reassuring. ”

Diana didn't seem to want to say too much on the subject, but the queen narrowed her eyes:

"You mean, you know him, how much do you know him?"

"All right, Mother!"

Diana's tone suddenly became heavier, she turned her head and closed her eyes: "You know, in this matter, I already have a home, Tfrey, he has been..."

"Don't use that mortal as a shield, my daughter!"

The queen interrupted Diana's rebuttal:

"The world thinks that you left Paradise Island because of love, but only I know that you have been very dissatisfied with this island that has bound you since you were a child, even if you don't have that despicable human man, you will still look for an opportunity to sneak away, and his arrival only gives you a reason to pursue freedom... Don't lie to yourself, Diana, there's never love between you and him, it's just curiosity and friendship, in this regard... I have more say than you do. ”

"Why are you the first to think of asking him for help when you are in danger, why do you think he is reliable, why are you so irrational because we talk about it? Why are you alone and drunk on the first night after you wake up, crying alone from us?"

The queen sighed, a flash of sadness in her eyes:

"You are in love with him, my poor daughter, you are like me, suffering from a sad fate, falling in love with a man who cannot belong to only one woman, falling in love with a leader, you will worry about him, you will suffer for him, you will give everything for him, all you ask for is his occasional attention... My poor daughter, why should fate be so harsh on you..."

"But I didn't even see him more than 10 times..."

Diana clenched her fists, closed her eyes, and whispered, "I still firmly believe that this is not love... I'm the queen of the Amazon, and I'm going to dedicate my life to my people, just like you, this question... We don't need to discuss it anymore. ”

She opened her eyes and looked at the shattered Dead Sea in front of her, shining in the sun with a miserable white and ominous light, and she breathed a sigh of relief and whispered:

"Let's remember him, a true hero who did feats that no one else could do. ”

"He is the one who walks on the road, he is surrounded by darkness and evil, they hate him, they fear him, they try to destroy him and everything he protects. ”

"He leads the weak through the dark world with iron and strength, he protects his people, he protects our hopes. ”

"To the enemies of his people who tried to poison him, he always killed them with great hatred and incomparable anger. ”

"Of course, when he raises the sword of vengeance, his brother and his enemies will know that he is Cyber Hawke..."

Diana's voice was like a dream, in the lonely sea breeze, in a long poem belonging to the Amazon style:

"He's the overlord of this world... In this era, there is no one more brave than him. ”

"The world should remember what happened on Paradise Island... Yesterday the sun set because of him, and tomorrow the sun will still rise because of him. ”

"When the final victory comes, they should call on the name of Cyber, they should remember him, obey him, thank him, and finally... Make him king. ”

A hoarse and low voice flickered on this fallen battlefield, Diana stepped forward and put the stone in her hand and a bouquet of flowers under the stone monument by the sea, which was already full of flowers, which were placed here by others, no one knew who the owner of these flowers was, but it was clear that there were still people who continued to hold on and did not give up hope on this continent that had completely fallen.

And what Cyber does will be like the sun hanging in the sky, constantly guiding them to continue to persevere, resist, until the last moment comes.

As Cyber said, in this world, danger is real, it exists around everyone, but in the face of danger, fear is always just a choice, it is not the only one.

A great war is over, but the legend has just begun, and the new story is not over yet... But at this time, let's remember Paradise Island and everything that happened here.
