In the main hall of the Amazons, Hippolyta, who was slightly weak but imposing, dressed in a traditional and simple service, held the end of the mantra lock in one hand, and tightly tied Diana. And Diana's eyes were sad, and she struggled frantically, but she couldn't escape, so she could only sit obediently on the stone chair.

Hippolyta held the scepter in her other hand, and the low end collided lightly with the ground, making a heavy sound, and pieces of visible energy poured into Diana's body, for a long time, Diana's eyes full of murderous aura finally slowed down, and slowly, her frantically struggling body also quieted down, lowering her head, and her long black hair like a waterfall scattered in front of her forehead, making it impossible to see her expression clearly, like a silent trapped beast.

This ritual lasted for a long time, and countless warriors of the Amazons were allowed to watch on the spot, and they all knelt on the ground to perform their unique rituals, and there were only three figures standing quietly in the main hall, Superman, Fiora and Joaquin.

Finally, as Hippolyta gently pulled the rope down, Diana regained her freedom, her hands covered her cheeks, her elbows were on her knees, her head was still lowered, and the appearance of her cloak made people look very flustered, no one knew if she would be angry in the next second, after all, her cold-blooded rule and ruthless methods are still vivid.

From beginning to end, Diana did not raise her head, and slowly, she finally had a movement, her legs weakened, she got down from the stone chair, fell to her knees, and knelt in front of Hippolyta, silently, without saying a word.

"It's okay, kid, it's not your fault." Hippolyta rubbed Diana's hair kindly with the radiance of maternal love on her face, while Diana was silent. There was a slight tremor in his body. "But as the next patriarch I have handpicked. You have failed the expectations of the Amazons, and you will be punished as you deserve. ”

"I am willing to accept it, Your Highness." Diana finally spoke, different from the cold voice before, such a familiar voice made Joaquin's heart relax, and finally, the familiar Diana returned. Diana did not call Hippolyta her mother. On such occasions, she was ashamed that she was the daughter of Hippolyta, and even ashamed of the glory of being an Amazon.

"You have shown me another you in your heart, and I respect you as the proudest daughter of the Amazons, with the competitiveness that flows in the Amazon's blood, and the qualities of the Amazons: pride and glory. But you have been taken advantage of and led astray. I hope you will show me, and your future people, that you will apply these good qualities in the right place. Hippolyta lifted herself up, no longer stroking Diana's hair. From a loving mother to a ruler.

"I will listen to your commands." Diana's head hung lower, and the fault she had committed was worse than killing her.

"There is no absolute good in the world. The difference between absolute bad and absolute bad is how you use it. Whether the sharp blade of your heart will bring hope and peace to people, or fear and war, is up to you. I'm looking forward to the answers you have for the Amazons. Hippolyta did not directly give Diana an order to punish, but said something misty that made Diana fall into deep thought.

"Let's go. Get out of here. When you feel like you've done enough to satisfy the Amazons, you're welcome back here. No matter how strong Hippolyta is, her body and bones are a little weak after being tortured for a long time, and she barely stands up and does not show her weak side, "I should also accept the punishment I deserve." ”

"No, Your Highness the Queen, it was my fault and it has nothing to do with you." Diana looked up anxiously and said, "Please punish me." ”

"You are my daughter, a child I carefully kneaded with my hands, and you are my hand-picked heir, how can I not be at fault." Hippolyta smiled and shook her head slightly, remembering the moment when Diana was gently kneaded out of the mud on that beach many years ago, and how happy she was at the beginning, "Go, don't let me down, and don't let your people shame you." ”

"Mother" Finally, Diana couldn't help but call out to her mother, but was resolutely waved back by Hippolyta.

Joaquin and Superman looked at each other, neither daring to disturb this scene that seemed to be a state affair or a family matter, as the warriors of the Amazon clan withdrew from the main hall one after another. It didn't take long for Diana to come out with a guilty face. No matter how depressed she was at this time, no matter how bitter she was in her heart, as an Amazon, she was still unwilling to show her weak side in front of the world, and took the lead in front of Superman, saluting: "Thank you, warrior, you have obtained the Amazon, well, you have received my highest respect." ”

Probably now a sinner, Diana stopped talking about the term "Amazons" halfway through and replaced it with herself.

"It's great to see the leader of the Justice League come to his senses." Superman nodded, although it could be seen that Diana was not in a very good mood, but as long as she returned to the Justice League, then everything would be fine, and this society would get better and better under the leadership of the Justice League, which Superman was convinced of.

"Thank you, Warrior, for the highest respect I have received." Diana walked up to Fiora very formally, repeating the same words, but no one could doubt the sincerity of Diana's words.

Fiora, however, ignored Diana at all, and silently stepped back and stood beside Joaquin.

"Joaquin." Diana finally came to Joaquin's face, and her words were finally no longer so solemn, with the unique familiarity of old friends, "Well, I owe you another time." ”

"Nonsense, didn't you bring your people to help us exterminate the sentinels last time? If you really want to talk about it, I can't pay you back. Joaquin smiled and comforted Diana, not wanting her to be too heavy.

However, Diana is a very decent person, and she is also a more serious person, when she heard Joaquin say this, she said very seriously: "Last time you helped our clan defeat Ares, you are the benefactor of our clan, we"

"Diana." Joaquin's slightly distressed opening interrupted Diana's words, and spread his hands out, "Are you serious?" ”

"Alas" Diana sighed silently, didn't say anything more, looked at Joaquin with complicated eyes, pursed her lips, and asked softly, "You say, what kind of actions do I have to make to get the satisfaction of my clan and the approval of Her Royal Highness?" Can I make up for my mistakes? ”

Joaquin was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Diana to ask for help from him, Superman on the side was even more stunned, through a short contact, he deeply understood the proud heart of the Amazon family, which is the essence that they can't hide, but at this time Diana opened her mouth to ask, obviously, it shows a lot of things: Diana absolutely recognizes Joaquin, and she trusts Joaquin very much, and the relationship is good to a certain extent, so she will ask Joaquin in this very serious matter.

"Hippolyta just said that you have a sharp blade in your heart. It can bring hope and peace, but it can also bring fear and war. This means that your unique traits are destined to be a double-edged sword, and you need to prove to your people that you will bring hope and peace to the world. Joaquin said he understood.

Although Diana was slightly resentful of Joaquin's calling her mother's name, she could tolerate it, after all, Joaquin was not his clansman. However, Joaquin's analysis made Diana very sure, so how to prove it to her own people and mother? Isn't that what the Justice League has always been for and what it has done?

"Let's go back to headquarters." Diana said in a firm tone, with Joaquin's prompting, she already had a clear goal.

"Well, this guy might be a new member of the Justice League." Joaquin smiled and raised his head and nodded at Superman next to him with his chin.

"Huh?" Diana looked at Superman, although her body was not under her control just now, but the memory was still there, of course she knew Superman's powerful strength, in fact, she was controlled by the Red Skull at the beginning, and she didn't know that the Kryptonian was powerful in the Metropolis.

"Someone who can make you recognize, of course I will consider." Diana opened her mouth and said, not giving a definite answer, just saying that she could consider it, after all, joining the Justice League requires more than just strength.

Superman joined the Justice League and was actually considered by Diana when he said to consider it? Such a strange scene seemed to Qiao Jin's eyes to be extremely joyful.
