The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 1387

With about twenty minutes left, Yang Le stopped all his work. He had almost finished what he needed to do. Even if he could come up with a better solution in that short time, last-minute cramming might not be effective.

With this in mind, Yang Le turned on his communicator and began searching for Diana's location.

Yang Le wanted to spend this last quiet moment with her partner.

In case of emergency, Yang Le and Diana's communicators are actually linked to each other. As long as the device's positioning system is turned on, they can see each other's location.

Yang Le discovered that Diana was at the watchtower.

This watchtower is not the same as that watchtower; do not mistake it for the previous Justice League main base.

This watchtower is actually the name of the Star Observatory on the Cybertron base. From here, one can see the situation around Cybertron, and it can be used to observe the situation in the universe or to observe enemy activity.

The reason it was named Watchtower is to commemorate the previous main base. Although it will not be abandoned in the short term, the Justice League has shifted its focus to Cybertron.

Humans are naturally inclined to crave novelty, but when they acquire new things, they also like to reminisce about the old ones—a sentimentality unique to intelligent beings.

Yang Le was also unsure what Diana was doing in the watchtower, but he speculated that she might be monitoring for potential dangers.

Therefore, Yang Le did not choose to contact Diana and disturb her work, but instead quietly went to the watchtower.

Teleported to the entrance, Yang Le swiped his card to enter. The huge room suddenly filled his vision, giving him a feeling of being overwhelmed.

The watchtower was very large; the entire room was a hollowed-out spherical room with only one path leading from the door to the center, which could only accommodate a maximum of three people walking side by side.

Although the road is narrow, there is no need to worry about falling off. Not to mention that most superheroes have means of flight or gliding, the inside of the watchtower is basically a zero-gravity space simulating the universe.

This is to allow those inside to observe all the views within at will, and of course, there's also a touch of romance involved.

After all, Yang Le was a homebody before he transmigrated, and he was still very fascinated by the outer space depicted in Gundam.

The room was quite large, so it still took Yang Le more than ten seconds to finally find Diana's location. She was standing on the circular platform in the middle of the watchtower, with her back to him.

It was only then that Yang Le realized that besides him, Diana was the only other person in the huge watchtower. He had thought there would be many people here.

For some reason, Yang Le did not set the door on Cybertron to be silent, so Diana easily heard the door open.

When Diana turned around, she saw Yang Le walking towards her, and the former looked surprised.

"What's wrong? Why are you making that face?"

Faced with Yang Le's curious question, Diana instead showed an amused expression, tossed her hair, and said.

"I thought this guy would stay in the lab until the mission started, but I didn't expect him to come out on his own."

Yang Le awkwardly touched his nose and replied, "The person you're talking about isn't me, is it?" "Really? I didn't say that." Diana turned around and leaned against the railing of the platform. She looked very relaxed. Her originally sharp and clear warrior aura had become softer, like a princess of that country, noble and mysterious.

Oh, Diana was originally an Amazon princess. In fact, she could have inherited the position of Amazon Queen long ago, but for personal reasons, she always had her relatives take over the position of Queen in her place.

"Are you nervous?" Yang Le moved closer to Diana, resting his arms on the railing and mimicking her relaxed posture.

"Excuse me, I asked a silly question. You are an Amazonian princess, how could you possibly be afraid or nervous about war?"

Yang Le knew that Diana hated being looked down upon, so after realizing he had said something stupid, he immediately apologized.

Unexpectedly, Diana did not show any anger at Yang Le's words. On the contrary, she took the initiative to close the distance between them. Originally, there was less than half a person's gap between them, but now there was no gap at all.

The two were practically touching, with Diana's hand wrapped around Yang Le's waist. Just when the latter thought she was going to throw him, she actually grabbed his hand.

Yang Le was breathing in Diana's scent and felt the heat coming from her back. Even though they had been together for so long, Yang Le couldn't help but feel his heart racing.

"Do you want to hear the truth?"

Hearing the soft voice behind him, Yang Le nodded subconsciously.

"If she were the original Amazonian princess, she probably wouldn't feel fear when facing any battle or war. She would just be like a sword, charging forward and cutting down all the enemies in her way."

At this point, Yang Le felt the force on his waist and hands increase slightly.

"But now that the Amazon princess has found someone she loves, she finds herself no longer so fearless. A softer side has emerged in her heart, and she always thinks more deeply when danger is approaching."

Yang Le noticed the tremor in Diana's voice. He was about to say something, but she cut him off with her next words.

“But I never thought it was a bad thing,” Diana said firmly. “Yang, it was you and Cassandra who made me realize that I can be a sword to defeat the enemy, and also a shield to protect the ones I love.”

“Your existence has not made me weak; on the contrary, it has made me more complete. I can feel that I am the real me now.”

"Therefore, we must..."

Yang Le used his remaining hand to cover Diana's mouth with his index finger, stopping her from making a promise, even though her words sounded nice.

"We don't need to say so much between us, Diana."

Yang Le exerted a little force with his right hand, and instead spun Diana around and pulled her into his arms.

"There are less than ten minutes left before the mission begins, so let's enjoy this rare moment of peace and quiet."

Diana did not reject Yang Le's suggestion, after all, this might be the last time for peace.
