Chapter 3: Steve II
Chapter III
Normally, Diana should have run to Steve by now...... For the time being, let's call this Steve the room of the second bar and advance the main story.
Listen to Steve 2 talk about the wars and troubles in the outside world today.
The fledgling Diana was already very curious about this Steve No. 2, who was a little handsome at first sight and was one of the more outstanding individuals among ordinary people.
Even if she has enough knowledge and education, how can Diana, who is still a martial arts warrior in her bones, play Steve No. 2 as a spy.
She would be aroused, inflamed, and then sold herself hard.
Of course, the main reason is that Diana still has enough hope and concern for mankind in her heart.
And yet she's here now......
"Because ......" Diana's eyes wandered, and she pursed her lips and said:
"You're dangerous! I was the first to discover you, I am the most powerful warrior on the island, probably the second, no, the third, I am obligated to keep an eye on you! ”
Well, between Black Superman and Steve II, as long as they are not blind, most people make the same choice, regardless of men and women.
"I thought I'd unleashed enough goodwill, and you still seem to want to clash with me?" Peter asked rhetorically.
Although Amazon's vigilance is obvious to all, there are some things that cannot be said in the open, and Diana has obviously not turned her muscles yet.
This caused her to be directly stunned at once, "I...... That was not what I meant. ”
The surrounding Amazon warriors also tensed up one by one.
"Hey, relax, it's okay." Diana hurriedly reassured her fellow citizens, and then explained to Peter:
"I didn't mean that, I just. Curious, who are you? Your powers seem to be possessed only by the legendary gods, but they are long gone. ”
"Extinction? Who told you? ”
"My mother, Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons."
"I guess it must be some kind of bedtime story, even if the earth is destroyed, they don't necessarily die."
The plot on DC's side is very spent, which leads to the fact that the gods of Olympus are often "killed" in many works, but they often have to eat books afterwards, and they just "leave the earth", or "hide in the domain of such and such gods", "the dead are fake", "doppelgangers" and the like.
Diana was stunned for a moment, but then she heard Peter say, "You should leave." ”
Diana, who had touched her nose, could only come out of Peter's room in a gray way.
She chose to come to Peter, not only for the same reason as most people, but also because she was also a little "different".
Today, it was because the level of divine power awakening in her body had exceeded the limit of the guardian silver bracelet, which caused a shockwave, of course, she didn't know the reason.
She originally thought that she would be able to find some clues in Peter, who was also "unusual", but the other party seemed a little cold and uninterested in her.
This made her a little lost.
At the same time, Amazon's high-level council has finally come to an end.
Hippolyta finally stopped the fight between the hawks and the doves, and said, "I wonder what you have to do with the other one, the man who directly destroyed the fleet at sea?" ”
This silenced the high-level officials present.
"If the other party has bad intentions, we will fight him, and the warriors of the Amazon will definitely not back down." Said the hawkish general Antiope.
"It's not good, we don't know the origin and strength of the other party yet." Instead, the doves at the top became peacemakers.
This made Antiope sneer, "A group of weak fellows, thousands of years of comfort have corrupted you. ”
"That's enough." Hippolyta hurriedly stopped, and said with some headaches: "We can't rashly conflict with him, we can't know nothing, and we have to send him out of Paradise Island."
She looked at the crowd and said, "I believe that their arrival is not accidental, and I want to use the Lasso of Truth and hold a duel, choose a warrior, follow the guidance of the gods, and go with them to the human world." ”
Soon, Steve No. 2 was surrounded by everyone in the Amazon, his body was put on a mantra noose, and he wanted to die, and vomited everything that should be said and should not be said.
This gives the Amazon people a rough idea of the nature of the incident.
Ares, the god of war, is doing something again.
Then Hippolyta looked at Peter again, "I'm sorry, we need you to wear the noose of the truth too, we have no ill intentions, but we must know if you are the same"
Peter's eyes were slightly intertwined with Hippolyta, which made Hippolyta a little nervous, afraid that Peter would not cooperate, and it would be difficult for things to end in front of everyone's eyes.
And Peter's destruction is obvious to all, the red ray did not think that the Amazon warriors could block it, she subconsciously looked at Diana, no, not even more.
Fortunately, after Peter stared a little, he just said, "Of course it's fine." ”
He didn't mean anything else, he just wanted to test the effect of the famous Shingon Lasso, as well as his resistance.
This made Hippolyta breathe a sigh of relief, and only wrapped the lasso around Peter's arm, which made Steve II's eyes widen,
Why is the treatment so poor!
Others felt the power of the lasso, and soon Hippolyta asked him the first question,
"Who are you?"
Peter soon felt a wave of divine power release from the lasso, permeating, forcing some kind of rule on him, forcing him to say the reality of what he had in mind.
Of course, it's not that he can't resist forcibly, but the consequence of that might be to destroy the rope directly.
But he wasn't going to lie, and he didn't have to lie.
"Black Superman, a traveler from another world."
"Otherworldly?" This answer surprised everyone, but it was very reasonable, after all, there was such a strong guy out of nowhere.
Of course, they wouldn't have thought that this otherworld was so far away from Marvel next door.
"What is your purpose?"
"Go home, and go sightseeing." Peter replied briefly, "Is it enough, ma'am?" ”
Hippolyta took it when she saw it, and quickly withdrew the lasso of the mantra, and later announced the duel.
"We will send the strongest warriors to the outside world to deal with Ares, and the candidates will be chosen by gladiatorial combat."
Peter also summarized the current situation, the earth is currently in the First World War period, this background is tantamount to from the film and television version, the comic Steve II is already World War II period.
But the development of things is not like the film and television version, Diana directly led people to flee in the middle of the night, but conducted a duel selection like the comics, and mixed together.
And the result of this duel naturally does not need to be said, even if Hippolyta had secretly told Diana not to participate, but Diana finally participated and won the championship.
On the one hand, this is because she has a strong sense of justice and cannot sit idly by and watch people under the clutches of Ares, devastated by war.
Peter's indifference, on the other hand, seemed to have the opposite effect, making her want to follow up even more and "find out".
And Hippolyta didn't want Diana to participate, and she had a reason, the outer barrier of Paradise Island almost cut off the outside world, and even if it was them, there was no exact way to come back.
Once you leave, you will never be able to return to Paradise Island.
Hippolyta doted on this daughter of hers incomparably, and naturally did not want to be separated from Diana.
Although this setting is often eaten in the follow-up.
