Diana was eventually escorted by thousands of Amazonian warriors to her hometown where she grew up.Paradise Island.This is a huge island protected by the magic of the gods.Hidden deep in the Mediterranean, it is an island, but it is two-thirds the size of Toei, making it a small landmass.It was once part of Mount Olympus, where the gods were located, and before the gods were expelled from the world, the god-king used his divine power to cut the island off Mount Olympus and place it there.It is used to preserve the fire of the gods.These godborns already possess stronger physiques than humans from the outside world.Although not as exaggerated as the Asgardians, every warrior in the Amazons who can fight well can be regarded as a superhero in the outside world.And Diana is the strongest of them.The reason why the Amazon people are described as "they" is because there are no men on the paradise island...
It's full of women, and probably because it was created directly by the Greek gods, there are no ugly monsters on Paradise Island.Every Amazonian is beautiful or handsome in appearance, and their number is maintained at a specific number from the time of birth, never increasing, but decreasing.Those reductions were unexpected.On Paradise Island, there is a magical barrier like Mount Olympus, and if you stay in it, the Amazons will live forever.But these warlike she-wolves had a war with the Atlantis Undersea Humans thousands of years ago, so most of the Amazons' attrition occurred in that war.As queen, Hippolyta holds the secret methods of the gods, allowing her to replicate the creation of the gods and reshape the bodies of her people out of clay while the high priests retain the souls of the dead.Amazons, that's how amazing it is.Well, while all Amazons think they were born out of the dirt, in fact, in the land of Amazons, there has always been a lot of gossip.said that Queen Hippolyta was actually Zeus's secret lover, and Princess Diana was Zeus's biological daughter.Diana was the only child on the island to be born in natural childbirth.She has real divine blood flowing in her body, so Diana has shown physical fitness and potential far beyond that of ordinary Amazons since she was a child.Of course, Her Majesty never responded positively to this gossip.But Diana herself knew that it was true.When she was a child, her mother, after getting drunk, told her stories about her father, who was not very good at his private life.She's not proud of it, but she's not ashamed of it either.After all, Zeus and the gods had long since left this world, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to see them return during Diana's lifetime.In her mind, her father was long dead.In the Parthenon-like palace of the Paradise Island, Queen Hippolyta sits on the throne with a sword, maintaining the majesty of a king.She looked at her daughter, bound by ropes, kneeling in front of her eyes, with several sharp blades against her body.The beloved king's eyes were full of indifference.She waved her hand and said in a deep voice, "You guys, all go out!"
”"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The guards in the palace bowed to the king, and then, led by the two captains of the guard, strode out of the palace, and soon only Hippolyta and Diana were left in the palace."
Pop" Diana easily broke free of the rope on her body, she moved her wrist, looking at her mother sitting on the throne.She took a few steps forward and said to her mother, who she hadn't seen for decades, "Mom, I...
I am back. ”"Smack" The queen waved her hand and slapped her daughter on the cheek mercilessly.She looked at her daughter sternly, and she asked, "You are a man, you have abandoned your people, your country, your mother...
You still have the face to come back!
”"Do you remember what I told you when you took that man out to sea?"
The queen stood up, held the hilt of the sword in her hand, and said sternly, "Either you will never come back, or you will come back with the man's head and wash away your shame with his blood...
Did you do it?
”"I didn't."
Diana didn't care about her mother's reprimand.The queen didn't exert any force, the slap just sounded painful, and there wasn't even a mark on her face.Queen Hippolyta was also a powerful warrior, and if she wanted to, that slap could have completely hurt the female demigod Diana.She stood straight in front of her mother's eyes, and she said, "But I broke up with Tefrey, and shortly after the end of the war, between me and him...
I didn't have much emotional foundation, maybe it was just yearning and curiosity about the outside world, and I was still young after all about love...""
I've been in London all these years, mother, and I've always missed you."
The Queen's expression finally changed.She sighed, like ice and snow melting, she reached out and stroked her daughter's face, and she said, "Does it hurt?"
”"No, it doesn't hurt at all."
Diana also held her mother's hand, and she said indifferently: "Compared to all these years of missing, this pain is nothing." ”"Have you learned?"
The queen looked at her daughter and asked, "Have you learned your lesson?"
”"Hmm."
Diana said: "The love of mortals does not belong to us, we are never different from them, and it is difficult for us to truly fit into that world." ”"I was against your conservatism, but now, I know that it is not to imprison our people, but to protect them, that Paradise Island is our world, and that we have our own traditions and civilizations.""
We shouldn't have too much intersection with the outside world."
Speaking of which, Diana glanced at her mother, who hesitated for a moment, but still said what was in her heart."
But it doesn't help to know that, the outside world is changing, I can't describe it exactly, but I can feel that maybe soon, Paradise Island will be exposed to the world," she said. ”"Mother, you should be prepared for this in advance.""
Good!"
The queen nodded in satisfaction.She rose from her throne and motioned for her daughter to follow her.The two of them, escorted by the guards, left the palace, mounted pure white horses, and galloped with a team of guards on the grasslands of Paradise Island, where Diana listened to her mother's advice in the wind of her homeland."
I'm old, Diana."
The young queen, who looked like a young woman in her 20s, said in a calm tone: "Even if you insist on not coming back, in a few years, I will send someone to bring you back...
I sense that the end of my destiny is near, and you know, I am not like our people. ”"I was born in Olympus, not in the dirt, and I will die one day, like the fallen gods."
She waved her hand to her daughter and said, "In the last period of my life, I will tell you everything you should know and what you shouldn't know, as the basis for you to become the next queen of Paradise Island." ”"You should contribute to your people."
The queen said, "Bring peace, avoid war, and protect this paradise." ”"But as you said, maybe the thousands of years of closure on Paradise Island will end in your royal power, maybe our civilization will eventually integrate into the outside world, this is a trend, and Atlantis has not been very peaceful recently...""
But that's your mission and duty, my daughter, and that's what you should consider with us wherever we want to go.""
These things can be talked about later."
Queen Hippolyta rode her horse and leaped up a ridge, her expression becoming a little more serious as she looked at the megalithic fortress at the end of the plain.She said to her daughter, "Tell me about the Raven Lord first, I heard about what happened in the Hell Dimension, and he and his followers are not at peace. ”"But why would he know about the relics we guard...
What did he want to do?
”"About this."
Diana said: "I told him the news of the relics, and as to why he was looking for these dangerous objects, perhaps, he should tell you." ”After saying that, Diana handed the raven coat of arms in her hand to her mother, and she said, "If you allow it, mother, I can summon the projection of the Raven Maharaja here." ”"A heavenly Father's coming," Queen Hippolyta stretched out her hand and pushed her crown, she reverted to her indifferent posture as a queen, and nodded to her daughter, "It will make the paradise island bloom." ”At the Queen's behest, Diana activated the coat of arms in her hand.The orange points of light were like jumping firelight, and in the blowing of the wind, it quickly condensed into the astral projection of Merlin.It was the solemn black robe, still Merlin's gentle face.At the moment of appearance, the Maharaja bowed slightly to Queen Hippolyta in front of him, and Her Majesty jumped off her horse and performed an ancient Greek etiquette to the Maharaja.It's a sign of respect for power.Her old lover, His Majesty Zeus, is also a heavenly father."
I'm sorry to disturb the peace of Paradise Island, Her Majesty."
Merlin looked around and said politely, "I trouble my friend Lady Diana to bring me my request, and now it seems that you have made up your mind." ”"Yes, Lord Raven."
Queen Hippolyta was not entangled, she said generously: "That cursed holy relic has been kept on Paradise Island for more than 3,000 years, and for 3,000 years, it has been the biggest hidden danger on our soil. ”"To tell you the truth, I've wanted to throw it out of Paradise Island more than once, but I'm afraid it will bring disaster to the outside world.""
Now there is a noble one with enough strength willing to receive it, and I couldn't be more than happy.""
But before I give it to you, I'll ask why."
The queen said without humility or arrogance: "Although it is a calamity, it is after all handed over to us by the Greek gods for our protection, and it is difficult for us to end this ancient vow without a valid reason." ”"I understand."
Merlin looked at the stone fortress not far away, and he made a "please" gesture to the queen and Diana, and said, "We can talk as we go, but only you and your daughter, and I don't want too many people to know this news at the moment." ”"That's as it should be."
The queen waved her hand and motioned for her guards to stay where they were.She remounted her horse and walked with Diana to the fortress in the distance, Merlin levitating in the air, at the same speed as the horse was moving.After more than ten seconds, away from the guards, Merlin looked at Queen Hippolyta, who looked more like a sister than a mother and daughter with Diana, and said softly, "I know from some ancient texts some of your intimate personal relationship with His Majesty Zeus. ”"I want to ask if he told you anything about the stars and the universe when you were alone with the king of Olympus."
Merlin's undisguised question made the queen glare at him fiercely.After all, Diana is still there, and it is a little too unseemly to say that her relationship with Zeus is just like that.But Diana didn't care.The princess of this paradise island has lived in the outside world for decades, and what strange things have not been seen?

As far as her mother and Zeus are concerned, in the outside world, she is not even qualified to be a lace tabloid.These old men and old ladies...
Well, it's just too conservative."
He...
Having said some. ”Queen Hippolyta was relieved to see her daughter's unconcerned expression, she recalled the old past, and then said to Merlin: "I could not understand at the time, he was very bored after drinking more than once, and he once told me that the stars were only false, and that we are all living in the false dream of monsters. ”"All it takes is a gust of wind to blow us out.""
He also said that in the ashes of our demise, precious 'truths' are born, but those truths have nothing to do with us," the queen said. ”"The world is a game, Mom."
After the queen had finished speaking, Diana glanced at Merlin, who said to her mother, "I have seen it with my own eyes, and I have been involved in it, Merlin is the protagonist of the game, and he sacrifices himself to free us and the world from vanity, but that is only the beginning." ”"When the cosmic furnace ignites, everything we care about, everything we want to protect, along with ourselves, is incinerated clean."
The Raven Maharaja stood in front of the stone fortress, his hands behind his back, and said to the dismounted queen behind him, "Would you wish that your daughter, your story, your love, your precious memories, and even yourself were just a meaningless dream?"
”"Nope."
Queen Hippolyta looked at the raven and said, "No one will hope!"
”"Good."
Raven nodded, he pointed to the fortress in front of him where the relics were sealed, and said, "Then give it to me." ”"I can't guarantee that everything will be 'true' in Zeus' mouth, but I can at least guarantee that I will do my best to do it...
Not just for you, but for myself. ”"Why did Zeus leave this world not with him, but leave such a dangerous thing for his lover?"
Merlin looked at Queen Hippolyta.He said earnestly: "Zeus may have tried, but he failed, not because he was weak, but because the time left for the stars to save themselves has not come!"
”"He may never have predicted that I would get here, but he left this thing to leave a glimmer of hope...""
Now, it's up to me to take over this flame of hope that has been passed on to this era
