Chapter 565: Steppenwolf is coming!

Sometimes, the enemy attacks faster than everyone thinks.

By the time the Amazons guarding the temple discovered the intruders, it was too late, and countless demons carrying Apocalypse Star weapons were constantly buzzing out of the blue teleportation pillar like locusts.

"Intruder!!"

The captain of the guardian team let out a loud roar, and took the lead in drawing his bow and arrow, directly shooting the head of an oncoming demon-like in front of him.

The surrounding Amazonian warriors also reacted immediately, and those combat factors engraved in their genes could make them enter a combat state in any situation, even if they were caught off guard.

Sharp arrows flew everywhere, and the vanguard demons that appeared at the beginning were quickly killed, but what the Amazon warriors didn't expect was that the demons on the other side of the portal seemed to be endless.

A batch had just been killed, but another batch had popped up, even more and more, buzzing in the sky, ready to attack them at any moment.

Seeing a demon aiming at her with the weapon in her hand, the captain of the escort dodged the shot with a tumbling danger, and then she suddenly drew the saber at her waist, and as she got up, a sword pierced through another demon who tried to sneak up on her.

"There are too many of them."

The lieutenant of the captain of the escort team shot the demon in the air, and then quickly came to the captain's side, back-to-back with her to warn her of the situation.

"We have to inform more people."

"Her Majesty must already know about the trouble we are in here, and it is impossible for the other sisters to stand idly by, these fellows dare to break into the temple of Paradise Island, and they will not return today."

The captain of the escort team clenched the sword in his hand, his face full of fighting intent.

"What we have to do is drag them here and buy time for the reinforcements of the large army."

"Sisters, stay in formation!"

On the other side of Paradise Island, Hippolyta frowned, her face gloomy as ink.

Turning around sharply, Hippolyta put her hands on Diana's shoulders and said word by word.

"Diana, listen to me, you go to Wembor now, and don't go near the direction of the temple no matter what happens, do you hear?"

"Why, I'm also an Amazon, and I'm going to fight too!" Diana said excitedly.

It is absolutely impossible for anyone to calm down when they see their homeland being invaded by the enemy, and it is even more impossible for Diana, who is a demigod.

After exercising for so long, she just wanted to become an Amazonian female warrior, and now that her homeland was under attack, she naturally didn't want to sit on the cold bench.

"Don't be stupid!" Hippolyta's tone was a little heavy, and then she said seriously. "This is not a battle that belongs to you, understand, with your current ability, it is just a sacrifice in vain, and what you will inherit is the future of the Amazon clan."

As she spoke, Hippolyta raised her hand and beckoned her fast horse, turned over and stepped forward, and continued.

"Obey Diana, if you still think of me as a queen."

The words fell, and without giving Diana time to answer, Hippolyta pulled the reins, and the strong horse neighed and galloped away in the direction of the temple at great speed.

Unlike the horses of the human world, the horses of Paradise Island are all divine horses that have been blessed by the gods, although they have the same appearance as normal horses and do not grow a pair of wings, but the strength, endurance, and wisdom of these horses are top-notch.

After running all the way over a hill, the sight of the temple gradually appeared in Hippolyta's vision.

Looking at the Temple battlefield from afar, at the number of strange creatures that were completely unequal to the number of guards, Hippolyta wished that the horse under her would grow four more legs.

"Drive!"

Seeing that a tall and sturdy giant suddenly appeared in the middle of the battlefield, Hippolyta's eyes turned cold, and she hurriedly urged her horse to run faster.

"Drive!"

The temple was built on the edge of Paradise Island, which is usually used as a place to worship ancestors, and the distance from the city is very long, and it will take at least ten minutes to wait for the army of Paradise Island to gather and arrive here.

However, it had only been three minutes, and the Templar Guards had already shown their decline, and although they were very strong in combat, there were too many of those demons.

In addition, a giant with a giant axe in his hand and invulnerable armor appeared, and every time the other party struck, he would kill an Amazon warrior with irresistible force, which made the scale of this battle tilt quickly.

'Gotta catch up.'

"Drive!"

Watching her sisters die tragically one by one under the monster's axe, Hippolyta's heart was dripping blood, and the killing intent in her eyes was undisguised.

In the temple, the armored giant split the guard in front of him in two with an axe, and then he raised his head and stared intently at the strange square box in the temple.

The tall man with a hammerhead shark-like helmet on his head was none other than Steppenwolf, a member of the Dark Lord's elite group under Darkseid, who belonged to the Apocalypse.

"Finally found the mother box"

Steppenwolf reached out and picked up the box in front of him, and his heart, which was originally a little hanging, gradually settled.

He had heard something about this planet, and it was a long, long time ago that the Dark Lord Darkseid had personally led an army against this planet, and it stands to reason that conquering an ordinary backward planet would not be difficult at all.

At that time, Darkseid had conquered countless planets and dimensions, and no one had ever been able to stand in his way.

However, what everyone didn't expect was that Darkseid, who had never tasted defeat, actually felt the taste of defeat on Earth, a planet that was too weak to be weak.

Not only was Darkseid seriously wounded in that battle, but even the mother box was taken away by the enemy and lost on the planet, which was unacceptable to Darkseid in any way.

But now it's different, the mother box is restarted, and Darkseid has once again obtained the coordinates of this planet, and this time, in order to take this place 100%, Darkseid deliberately sent Steppenwolf to take the lead.

Although Steppenwolf's combat power cannot be compared to his own level, the new god is a new god after all, and there are almost no existences on the idle planet that can hurt him.

If there really is something very threatening on Earth, or there is some old monster hiding from ancient times to the present, Darkseid himself can plan the next step in advance.

These little Steppenwolves naturally don't know, of course, even if he knows, he won't have any objections, and now he is happy because he found the first mother box.

As the crystallization of the apocalypse's greatest technological power, as long as you find the three mother boxes and merge them into one, then it is enough to burst out with a powerful power that can rewrite the material of the entire planet.

In other words, as long as the mother box is successfully fused, then there will not be a living creature in the entire earth, the whole world will be gone, and at the same time, this planet will be completely included in the territory of the Apocalypse.

"You give me death!"

Just as Steppenwolf admired the mother box in his hand, a loud shout rang out from behind him, and the captain of the escort leaped high to his neck with his sword in hand.

The blade of the sword was pointed at Steppenwolf's throat, but when the sword advanced to a distance of less than ten centimeters from Steppenwolf's neck, it suddenly stopped, and could not advance half a step further.

Steppenwolf gripped the sword in front of him tightly in his huge palm, and Steppenwolf smiled.

"Interesting attempt, I admire your courage to dare to die."

"You damn monster"

Before the captain could finish speaking, Steppenwolf's palm slammed into it, and the incomparably hard sword burst open, and the blade and fragments splattered in all directions, clinking into the surrounding stone walls.

Then, when the opponent's body was about to fall, Steppenwolf's palm took the first step and pinched her neck when the opponent did not find a point to borrow.

Feeling the terrifying suffocation, the captain of the escort team struggled desperately to resist, her hands and feet frantically attacking the giant in front of her.

However, her counterattack had no effect at all, instead her hands were cut by the opponent's armor, covered with scarlet blood.

"You are a fierce warrior."

Steppenwolf calmly looked at the woman in his hand, eager to eat him alive, and then he looked away from the temple gate, and on the plain not far away, a single horse was speeding towards this side.

"That should be the king you are loyal to."

Looking at the woman wearing the crown on the horse, Steppenwolf glanced at the woman in his hand and asked in a deep voice.

As if he hadn't heard, the captain of the escort team was still frantically attacking Steppenwolf with his fist, not because she didn't want to answer, but because she couldn't make any sound at this time.

The suffocation made her head bloodshot, her eyes were red and bulging out slightly, and there was no emotion in her eyes other than killing intent, which disappointed Steppenwolf who wanted to feel fear from her.

"Let her go!!"

At this moment, Hippolyta was already near, and she drew her bow and arrow, and a pale golden streamer spread from the arrow to the shaft.

Keenly aware of the aura of the ancient gods, Steppenwolf was stunned for a moment, and then showed a mocking smile.

Click!

The palm of his hand was slightly forced, and with a crisp sound of bones, the captain of the escort team instantly lost all his strength, and his hands and feet hung down weakly.

"You're looking for death!"

Hippolyta's eyes glared angrily, and as soon as her fingers loosened, the arrow that had been handed down from ancient times to the present day instantly broke out of the string, turning into a golden streamer and heading straight for Steppenwolf.

However, although the arrow was fast, the teleportation channel was even faster, and Steppenwolf had no intention of dodging at all, and looked at Hippolyta mockingly.

In an instant, the arrow flew by, piercing Steppenwolf's afterimage head-on, and piercing the Temple, leaving an incomparably obvious hole.

If you look at Steppenwolf, it's long gone.

The galloping horse slowed down, and Hippolyta gasped and held the golden bow in her hand, and an indescribable sadness and anger welled up in her heart.

Looking at the mess around her and her sisters who died tragically, Hippolyta gritted her teeth and raised her head with tears in her eyes.

Looking up at the boundless sky.
