The Ultimate Creature of American Comics
Chapter 22 The Oracle of Zeus
"How is this possible, mother, this is not in line with our tradition..biquge"
As the saying goes, mothers and daughters are connected. As Hippolyta's daughter, how could Diana not see what she meant and quickly defended.
Qiao Wei looked at Diana in surprise, unable to understand Diana's logic for a while. Although they both entered Paradise Island due to a plane crash, Jovi is not Steve in the original work. He was neither rescued by Diana nor fought against the invaders with her. The two even had a fight before. , from this point of view, Diana has no reason to save Jovi at all.
"I've always protected you very well, Diana."
Unlike Jovi, Hippolyta clearly understands what her daughter is thinking.
Today, most of the Amazons on Paradise Island were born in the Age of Gods. As one of the most powerful groups of warriors under the Olympian gods, they have participated in more wars and killings than have been recorded in human history.
But after the ancestor Amazon Queen Penthesilea died in the battle at Troy, these great female warriors saw through the dangers of human nature. While retaining their faith in the gods, they lost the courage to fulfill their mission.
They are unwilling to serve as a bridge to promote mutual understanding among humans, and they are even less willing to use their power for such a vain goal as "protecting the world."
It's just that Diana is different from them. As one of the very few young people on Paradise Island, this innocent girl has always believed that the world needs Amazons to protect it.
Because of this, Diana would never allow her mother to agree to such a strange request. Maybe she could show no mercy to Jovi with a sharp sword in the forest, but killing an unresisting person was not an option. The style of an Amazon like Diana.
"Your Majesty, what Your Highness said makes sense, but we can't just let him go."
The wily Priest Hera said as he walked out of the crowd, his eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything looked up and down at Jovi, "He is the king of another country after all. Once he really brings someone back, we will probably have to ask him to bring him back." God’s help.”
"No, I won't."
Qiao Wei shook his head. He was bound by the lasso of truth and of course he did not tell lies.
Just kidding, Sokovia is originally a small country with a permanent population of only about . Thanks to the carbon dioxide technology and minerals obtained after the disintegration of Lao Maozi, life is pretty good. How can there be an intrusion by someone who is idle? This remote paradise island.
Besides, these Amazons are protected by the gods of Olympus. As soon as the front foot invades, Kratos may jump out from behind. Who can stand this?
"I don't believe it, and we won't believe it," Hera's priest reminded, "Your Majesty, people will change, we can't take this risk, and besides, four of our tribesmen have been attacked by vampires. In the past few days, only his plane has appeared on Paradise Island. I suspect that the vampire is definitely related to this man, right?"
The first few words of Hera's sacrifice were still spoken to Hippolyta, but when he said the last three words, his eyes had been locked on Jovi's face. Jovi could not tell lies under the lasso of truth. I can only nod in agreement.
"Yes, it has something to do with me."
As soon as he said this, the surrounding Amazons looked at Jovi with murderous intent. Even Diana's eyes became evil. Athena's priest even took a step forward with a scale and asked Queen Hippo Lute upheld the dignity of the law on Paradise Island and executed Jovi immediately.
"Wait, listen to my explanation!"
Qiao Wei shouted quickly, during which he glared hard at the priest of Hera, who was being tied up by the mantra lasso, and asked a question with only two answers like "is it", isn't this deceiving?
Seeing that Hippolyta had no intention of stopping him, Jovi quickly told a series of entanglements between himself and Dracula. Due to the effect of the mantra lasso, there was no artistic processing in his story, but even so , the Amazons, who could only rely on hunting for entertainment, were stunned for a moment when they heard this. Even the female warrior holding the mantra lasso couldn't help but loosen the lasso.
Hippolyta couldn't help but frowned after listening to Jovi's story, "Are you saying that the vampire named Dracula won't die?"
"Yes, he was protected by Sithorn..." Jovi said, suddenly remembering that Dracula's immortal blood came from the Archmage Vanas of Atlantis. Atlantis and the Amazons, who also belong to the Greek mythology system, will have a solution, "Have you heard of Vanas? He signed the contract between Dracula and Sithorne."
Hearing Vanus's name, Hippolyta's face couldn't help but become a little solemn, and she subconsciously turned her gaze to Poseidon's sacrifice, but who would have thought that the priest didn't notice Hippolyta's gaze at all, but looked at it in shock. The throne behind her.
A dazzlingly beautiful young man lay lazily on Hippolyta's throne, his body calmly exposed, and a pair of winged boots on his feet sparkled in the sunset.
"My Lord Hermes, you came here from the Holy Mountain. Do you have news you want to convey?"
The priest of Hermes fell to his knees and asked.
"Of course, my child." Hermes remembered this sacrifice, especially now that most of his followers have disappeared. This strong body can always give him a feeling of returning to the age of gods, but he is But this is not what he is here for.
The messenger of Zeus conjured up his own snake staff, and with a wave of his hand, a dark plain lined with rocks appeared in front of everyone.
Qiao Wei didn't know where this place was, but every Amazon looked like they had seen a ghost. This area was either somewhere else or Paradise Island!
"Ah, look at what a good job my brother did. Couldn't he be neater when he twisted Badr's head? Look what he did to my father's island."
Hermes' expression was extremely regretful, but also felt overly dramatic.
Jovi knew who Hermes was talking about. This messenger of gods was supposed to be the youngest of the twelve main gods of Greece. He was naturally arrogant and would not regard those demigods as brothers. If there really were If there's anyone he can call his brother, it's probably Kratos, who somehow occupies Ares's seat.
"Hermes, what on earth do you mean?"
Hermes did not care about Hippolyta's offense. After all, this was the last descendant of his poor brother Ares. "Hippolyta, the father has an important mission to entrust to your daughter, but Before that, she must go through a trial."
"Trial?"
"Yes, your daughter must kill the vampire who desecrated this cemetery," Hermes said, looking at Jovi and suddenly said: "By the way, she must also take this mortal with her!"
"Take me?"
Qiao Wei pointed at himself in disbelief, and the Amazons on the side immediately started making a fuss.
"What are you kidding?"
"Lord Hermes, this man is our prisoner. He does not deserve the honor of participating in the trial with the princess."
Being named by God King Zeus to participate in the trial, such honor made these Amazons instantly red-eyed. Jovi even saw that the young priestess of the God of War had drawn out the guard's sword and began to "show off" her bravery.
Hippolyta did not speak, but directly grabbed Jovi's collar, "Tell me, what preparations do you need?"
