Chapter 35: The End
Night falls.
Under the bright moonlight, the Amazons held a grand and solemn open-air party to celebrate their achievements.
The location is in front of the royal palace of the Amazons.
A bonfire was lit on the flat ground in front of the king's palace, and all the Amazons who had participated in the battle against Ares and the battle above the sky had arrived.
Countless fine wines and food were transported out of the palace in a steady stream, the wide flat ground in front of the main hall, rows of low wooden tables with exquisite shapes, and regular displays on the ground, many warriors, or sitting on the same delicate and gorgeous, rich in ancient Greek aesthetics, or standing, or even sitting on the ground, embracing the wine in their arms, from time to time looking up to drink, let out a hearty laugh.
At the head of the feast sat the top of the Amazons, Queen Hippolyta, Commander Antiop, and the captains of the legions.
"Sons and daughters of Paradise Island!"
Hippolyta, who had now taken off her dress and changed into a magnificent royal robe, slowly stood up from her gilded throne, holding a glass of gold marigolds in her hand.
"Today, an evil god is bowing down!"
She shouted.
Everyone looked at her, and the noise immediately fell silent.
"I'm sure everybody already knows."
Hippolyta's voice was loud and full of royal majesty.
She looked at all the Amazon warriors below, thousands of soldiers, all major legions, all present.
"Ares, the god of war, has raided our paradise island, and in today's battle, we have lost one hundred and four soldiers, and two hundred and twenty-eight wounded are now recuperating in our medical hall. Even our Eighth Legion, Cecila, has fallen today. ”
"She returned to the arms of the gods."
At the end, the Amazon's voice slowed down, with a hint of sadness.
The dense Amazon warriors below were silent, just quietly watching their queen.
"Even I, Commander Antiop, and the other legion commanders have been in a near-irreparable crisis."
But soon, the queen's voice returned to calm.
"Today is the most special day in the history of our people since the establishment of Paradise Island. In fact, the Amazons may henceforth disappear from the history of civilization. ”
"But tell me, sons and daughters of Paradise Island, are you afraid?"
Hippolyta asked in a loud voice.
"We have nothing to fear!"
Below, a huge crowd erupted in a sky-high roar.
Many warriors raised their arms and shouted, their bare muscles tense and inexplicably glowing like steel in the moonlight.
Death and pain have been the closest old friends of the Amazons for thousands of years.
It is the record and testimony of this nation on countless battlefields again and again.
Here, death and pain can never break their will.
"Blessed by the gods, the heroic spirit is immortal!"
"The Amazons will never be afraid of anyone!"
The answers from the countless warriors were like waves of sound, pushing wave after wave, as if they were about to resound throughout the paradise island.
At this moment, even those Amazonian warriors who did not participate in the scene, but were scattered in other posts and locations on the island, raised their heads one after another and looked in the direction of the palace.
"Good."
On the throne, Hippolyta waited two seconds before waving his hand and signaling for everyone to be quiet.
"I see your courage. Today, each and every one of you is doing a very good job. ”
"Although none of us can match the god of war in terms of strength, the courage and determination of our Amazonian warriors to defend the race and honor are unmatched by ten, or even a hundred Ares!"
"That's why we can be the sword in the hands of the Heavenly Father, the gods under the command of all enemies, and even the gods of war are afraid of it!"
"Even if the glory and history of antiquity can never be recreated, we Amazons are still the same Amazons!"
Hippolyta took a deep breath.
"We have nothing to fear."
She held the golden cup aloft and drank it down.
"Blessed by the gods, the heroic spirit is immortal!"
She stretched out her arms as if to embrace the sky and shouted to the sky.
"Long live the Amazon!"
"Long live Her Majesty!"
The warriors erupted into even more intense sound waves.
After dozens of seconds, the chanting waves gradually dissipated and returned to normal.
Hippolyta held the empty golden cup, but instead of sitting back on the throne at once, she looked to the left, poured herself a glass of wine as warm as purple jade on the table again, moved her body, and walked slowly down the steps of the throne.
"Today, I would also like to give special thanks to one of our special allies, as well as my daughter, Diana."
"Together, they turned the tide and saved our paradise island and saved our Amazons."
Hippolyta came to the side table.
There was a man sitting here, who seemed a little abrupt in the scene of all Amazon women, and stood up at this moment and nodded slightly to her.
“... You're kind to Her Majesty. ”
Chen Sheng, who had already sat in the chair, also raised the cup in his hand.
Everything in front of him made him feel a little déjà vu, and when he saw Hippolyta walking towards him, he didn't know why, Chen Sheng inexplicably thought of the smiling leader who toasted them from the grassroots when he first joined the company.
However, should I say that she is worthy of being the queen of the Amazons, this temperament is dead, and that impassioned speech detonated the chanting of the audience, even if he is not an Amazon, at this moment, it is inevitable to be infected by some emotions.
There was an urge to raise my arms and shout.
'What a monarch and a theocratic nation and a nation...'
Chen Sheng couldn't help but think.
Although there is still a big gap between his three views and these Amazons in essence, the pure cohesion of this martial nation still touches him a lot.
These in front of him are real and vivid, as if he is in the ancient epic poems of ancient Greece, these novel experiences are something he has never been exposed to.
At this time, Chen Sheng did not wear the original black explosion-proof suit, and the Amazon tribe had a special person in one afternoon to make him a costume with the unique beauty of ancient Greece, whether it was clothing fabrics or embroidered gold and silver plating, they were extremely considered.
At this moment, he was wearing this exotic costume with half of his bare forearms and upper body, and his hair had also been specially taken care of by the maid, which looked slightly fluffy and curly, and the side face of the whole person seemed to be a little angular and handsome under the reflection of the grand bonfire in the distance.
"Mother."
On the table next to Chen Sheng, sitting was Diana, who was also dressed in a lilac satin dress.
She stood up, but didn't say much.
"Today, my people, we are witnessing the birth of a great hero."
Hippolyta, who was holding the golden cup, nodded to Diana, and then stared at Chen Sheng's body with burning eyes.
"He came down from the sky and brought hope to a world that was already scarred."
"He is the messenger of the Father, the gods, the embodiment of the earth! The evil god Ares, destroyed at his hands! ”
“......”
Chen Sheng listened to Hippolyta's loud announcement, although he was a little speechless in his heart, he could only pretend that nothing happened, and his face was calm.
This was agreed between him and Hippolyta before the party began, and a reasonable identity would be announced to all the Amazons, because his methods were mysterious and incomprehensible, and in order to avoid unnecessary verbal explanations, Chen Sheng agreed.
It's just that I didn't expect Hippolyta to really be inseparable from the gods in three sentences, and even declared that he was the incarnation of the gods in the world, and put such a big hat on him.
But think about it...
The cowhide is not boastful, and it is indeed difficult to explain why Ares would lose at his hands casually.
After all, it seems that in this world, there has never been a mortal who descended and killed the gods.
And the power of the Infinity Stones that Chen Sheng mastered, although it had nothing to do with the gods of this world, was a mystery and existence far beyond the gods.
