"Cool!"

Wen Ming sat comfortably in the hot spring pool where the male protagonist in Wonder Woman 1 used to bathe. The hot spring pool was divided into multiple levels, each with a different experience.

Wen Ming's physique is now amazing, so he naturally soaked in the hottest hot spring pool, allowing every cell in his body to relax.

Today, in order to take Paradise Island, I went to great lengths, including watching a full 11 hours of movies with them. They even showed them the 4-hour extended version of "Justice League" directed by Zack Snyder. Only then did the Queen and the Amazonian councilors lower most of their guard and believe that they would face attacks from Steppenwolf or even Darkseid in the future.

In the past, Qing would do these things later. Wen Ming hadn't been so dedicated to guiding the newcomers to travel through time for a long time.

Sigh, I've fallen from grace. I used to be as serious and responsible towards every time traveler as I am today.

We must reflect on this.

We should hire more blonde, blue-eyed, long-legged secretaries for this kind of job in the future.

"Boss, I'll go find out what's going on here. Melina is guarding the door; just call her if you need anything."

Harley's voice rang out at the cave entrance. Wen Ming nodded and said, "Don't talk nonsense. The people here are very wary of us."

After I take Diana and the others back and forth to the hotel once, they should be able to fully accept it.

But it's still difficult to say that they'll truly accept us, since this place is quite xenophobic.

Paradise Island has been isolated from the world for thousands of years, living a self-sufficient and happy life. Although there are wars, they generally do not have much contact with the outside world.

This is like early Wakanda.

In particular, these Amazons were Zeus's private possessions, and he absolutely did not want other men to approach them.

Harley laughed and said, "Don't worry, boss, I definitely won't do anything reckless."

After saying that, Harley walked away with a grin.

"Melina, I remember the Amazons prepared some fruit earlier, where is it?"

Upon hearing this, Melina, who was standing at the cave entrance, immediately came in: "It's right here over there, I'll get it for you."

"Thank you."

Wen Ming closed his eyes, gave a thank you, and continued to soak comfortably in the bath.

Sigh, they've fallen into decadence, starting to live this kind of life where everything is done for them.

We must reflect on this.

I'll try to do this every day from now on.

Soon, Wen Ming heard the sound of rushing water, and then a peeled grape was put into his mouth.

"Thank you, you're so thoughtful!"

Wen Ming praised, "Melina, I've had so much less to worry about since you came."

"That's what I should do."

……

Harley arrived outside the cave and found the beautiful Amazonian Shiflin, whom she had rescued earlier that day. She was clearly lingering not far from the entrance of the hot spring cave.

Seeing this, Harley's eyes lit up again. She leaned closer and said, "Let me introduce myself again. My name is Harley, Harley Quinn."

"Hello, I'm Siflin."

Siflin opened her beautiful eyes wide and asked curiously, "Am I really going to be taken away by Mr. Wen like General Antiope?"

"That's not necessarily the case."

Harley's words startled Siflin: "Not necessarily? What do you mean? Isn't this one of the rules you mentioned?"

I was destined to die, yet I didn't; I should have been taken away.

"That's a good point."

Harley held up a finger and shook it: "But did you forget the friendly reminder at the end? If it's not someone the boss likes, the boss has the right to refuse."

Siflin immediately tensed up: "So, if I'm not liked by your boss and can't be taken away, I'll definitely be killed by the world's will?"

"Yes."

Harley laughed and said, "I know that the female warriors of your Amazonian race are not afraid of death, but don't you want to go out into the world and see what it's like? Don't you want to see other universes?"

You know, in the Dragon Ball universe there are amazing dinosaurs, in NieR: Automata there are only androids and machine lifeforms, and in A Certain Magical Index there are only people with superpowers and magic..."

Hearing Harley's description of the scene, Siflin's eyes grew brighter and brighter, filled with intense curiosity about the outside world.

"How can I make my boss like me?"

Without realizing it, Siflin had already started calling him "boss".

Harley was overjoyed. She suddenly leaned close to Siflin's ear and said, "You've been tasting the flavor of women here for thousands of years. Would you like to taste the flavor of men?"

"what?"

Siflinn blushed and instinctively shook her head, but she quickly stopped.

If they had never seen a man, none of the Amazonian warriors would even consider it.

But today they saw a man like a god descend from the sky, destroy a powerful warship, easily kill hundreds of armed soldiers, and casually save them from the brink of death.

Others may not understand how powerful those guns are, but Siflin had experienced it firsthand and knew better than anyone how close she was to death at that moment.

That is why Siflin was more grateful to Wenming than anyone else.

There was even a hint of admiration.

She had been wanting to find an opportunity to get close to Wen Ming and express her gratitude to him.

After learning that she would be taken away by Wen Ming because she had survived a death sentence, she didn't feel much reluctance to leave Paradise Island; instead, she felt a little smug.

Harley saw that the time was right, took her hand, and led her to the cave entrance.

Soon, Siflin heard a sound that made her blood boil.

"This, this is..."

"Come on, you can sneak a peek for a while too."

Harley was like a little devil, constantly tempting her in her ear.

Siflind felt as if her legs were not obeying her commands, and she unconsciously took a few steps forward. Soon she saw the fierce battle that had never taken place on Paradise Island in thousands of years.

She swallowed hard, gripped the cave wall with both hands, and peeked inside.

This is way too intense!
It's much fiercer than the battles between us in the Amazon.

That spear looks far more ferocious and powerful than my Amazonian spear.

As she watched, she felt as if a fire was burning all over her body, making her want to scream, but she could only cover her mouth and forcefully endure it.

After a long while, a cry came from inside, and Siflin shuddered. She wanted to leave, but the little devil's voice rang in her ears again.

"Go, go! This is the time you'll definitely make the boss like you. He'll save you; he's our god."

Siflinn hesitated for less than a second before stepping inside.

As she approached, the cries from inside the cave grew louder, as if someone had wet themselves in fright.

Harley peeked at the scene with a grin for a while, and only when she was sure that the beautiful Amazon warrior had begun to kneel down and clean the spear did she turn around to look for her next target.

Even the strongest defenses are breached from within.

There are 10 Amazons that were destined to die but survived; this is just the first one.

Besides these, there's the beautiful Wonder Woman, the valiant Amazonian general, and the noble and beautiful queen who could make Zeus steal her...

Haha, who will I run into first?
None of you will escape; the Golden Dawn needs you.

Paradise Island?
This will also be the place favored by the boss!
……

At midnight, Diana stood on the balcony of her room, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

It turns out I wasn't made of clay, but was Zeus's illegitimate daughter.

So I am the Godslayer Blade!
Turns out I can fly.

The world is so wonderful!
And all of this was brought about by this man.

If what he said is true, does that mean I can go with him to that colorful world, a world even more wonderful than my original destiny?
Diana looked down at a terrace not far away, where the first man to enter Paradise Island in thousands of years lived.

She tried to hold back, but finally couldn't resist and lightly leaped onto the balcony railing.

"Hey? Siflin, what are you doing here?"

Diana was somewhat surprised to find Siflin in Wenming's room, sitting on the edge of Wenming's bed.

"Oh, Diana, what brings you here?"

Siflinn was a little flustered. She covered her mouth, swallowed quickly, and then said, "I came to see the boss. He said he was a little hungry, so I brought him some fruit."

"boss?"

Diana didn't notice Siflin's swallowing motion; she heard a strange word.

"Ah, well, I'm destined to be taken away from Paradise Island by the boss, so I'm learning to use outside vocabulary."

After Siflin licked her lips clean, her expression gradually returned to normal. She lowered her hand from her mouth and explained, "I'm different from you. I can't go back to Paradise Island anymore."

"Uh, okay."

Diana thought about those strange rules and realized that her aunt's 10 Amazons were probably already considering their options.

They might choose to remain loyal to Paradise Island and not leave, but they will likely face divine punishment soon.

If they were on the battlefield, they would certainly be fearless, because they are the bravest Amazons.

If, in the current situation, you were to tell them explicitly that they would die in a few days, but there was a way for them not only to avoid death but also to experience a broader future, then everyone would choose that method.

"I would like to speak with Mr. Wen."

Diana looked at Wen Ming leaning against the headboard. At this moment, Wen Ming's lower body was only covered by a thin blanket. His body, sculpted like a marble slab, had not an ounce of excess fat. A fire involuntarily rose in her heart.

This fire was unlike anything she had ever seen before, causing her to unconsciously swallow, just like Siflin.

"Okay, I'll head back now. You guys chat!"

Siflind stood up, but stumbled and almost fell. Diana quickly stepped forward to support her: "Are you alright?"

Siflin blushed and quickly shook her head, saying, "It's nothing. I'm just a little weak from being shot today, and my legs are a bit wobbly. I can walk by myself. You guys chat."

Siflind clutched her stomach and slowly walked out of Wenming's room. Diana found it strange, then noticed something was off about the air in the room: "What's that smell?"

"Fruit, I just ate several kinds of fruit."

Wen Ming cleared his throat lightly: "What would Your Highness Diana like to talk to me about?"

"Just call me Diana."

Diana was a little unsure where to begin, so Wen Ming thought for a moment and said, "Do you want to ask about things outside the home?"

"Ah, yes."

Diana nodded quickly: "Is the outside world really that exciting?"

"No matter how much I say, it's better to just take you to see it for yourself. What do you think?"

Wen Ming's suggestion immediately appealed to Diana.

She was already at a rebellious and active age, full of curiosity about everything, and upon hearing this, she couldn't contain herself any longer: "Let's go."

She stared intently at Wen Ming, who said with a hint of helplessness, "Ahem, Diana, I need to get dressed. Could you please leave first, or turn around?"

"Oh, okay, sorry."

Diana then realized that the other person was not wearing any clothes. She took one last, reluctant look before turning away.

A rustling sound came from behind, and Diana couldn't help but imagine what was happening behind her. Fortunately, Wen Ming dressed quickly: "Let's go. Oh, by the way, you'd better tell your mother. She loves you very much and cares about you. We can't leave without saying goodbye."

"Ah, okay, thank you!"

Diana felt a warmth in her heart, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

Everything that has been discovered now is different from the original story. In the original story, Diana secretly left Paradise Island, but was caught red-handed by Queen Hippolyta, who was waiting for her, just before she left the island.

Wen Ming, on the other hand, was much more upright and honest.

Diana excitedly rushed to her mother's room, only to find that her mother was not resting either.

Not only did they not get a break, but their aunt was also here.

“Mother, I want to go to Wenming’s universe with him, so that it can prove that what he said is true.”

Diana looked excitedly at her mother, while Hippolyta turned her head away, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

She looked at Wen Ming behind Diana, and when she saw his gentle expression, she said, "Promise me you will bring Diana back to me."

Wen Ming smiled and said, "This is not a matter of life and death, so there's no need to be so sad. I'll take her back first to establish a connection with your universe, and then she will be able to freely enter and exit both universes."

The only thing we need to determine now is the difference in the flow of time. It might only take a few minutes to recover. I'll have Harley and Melina time it here and calculate the difference to find out how many times it's multiplied.

Once that's confirmed, when Diana visits my universe, you'll know roughly how long she'll be there.

The child travels thousands of miles and the mother is worried.

Wen Ming actually envied Diana for having such a loving mother, so he explained in great detail.

He even suggested, "Actually, you can try it too. If you can go, then you can accompany Diana wherever she goes in the future."

"Ah I?"

Hippolyta hadn't expected the conversation to turn to her, and she was somewhat at a loss for words.

Just then, Harley, who was behind Wen Ming, suddenly interjected: "Diana's storyline has at least three parts, which means she can bring at least nine people who are destined to die but didn't, or whose storylines have ended, into the metaverse. Your storyline ends after Justice League, and there is no follow-up."

In other words, in the future, you can choose to enter the metaverse or stay on this island as the Queen of the Amazons. And if you accompany Diana into the metaverse this time, you and Diana can both receive enhancements—not just the three story-driven enhancements, but also various enhancements from the boss.

Harley's voice seemed to possess a kind of magic, allowing Hippolyta to see a future scenario: "Imagine, when Steppenwolf comes, you will no longer need to sacrifice your Amazonian people; you alone can defeat her!"

Hippolyta's breathing suddenly became heavier.

The Queen of the Amazons may not care about anything, but she cannot neglect her people.

Thanks to Wenming's intervention, the arrival of the Hans soldiers this time did not result in any casualties. However, the arrival of Steppenwolves will surely bring huge casualties to the Amazon tribe, just like in the movie.

It must be said that Queen Hippolyta was smitten.

But she was the queen, and no matter how tempted she was, she couldn't act rashly: "You all go first, and I'll go after I've confirmed that everything is alright."

"Then please wait a moment. Harley, start the timer."

Wen Ming reached out and grabbed Diana's hand: "Are you ready?"

"Oh? It's done, all done."

It was the first time in her life that a man had held her hand, and she felt her heart race.

However, the next second, she felt the scene in front of her suddenly change: "What, what is this?"

The brightly lit building made Diana, who was used to using candles, feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"This is my Iron Hotel, welcome to the Metaverse."

As soon as Wen Ming finished speaking, a figure in cyan gold rushed into his arms: "Boss, you're finally back."

Wen Ming smiled and hugged Qing Hou tightly: "Were you worried sick?"

"Of course! I was terrified, but I couldn't let anyone see it. It's really hard to pretend to be calm."

Queen Qing hugged Wen Ming's forehead and kissed him hard, then snuggled in his arms for a while before turning to Diana, who was still standing there dumbfounded, and said, "Hello, Diana, I am Queen Qing."

"Hello, Qinghou."

Diana quickly looked away and greeted the Queen.

When she saw Qinghou kiss Wenming, her eyes flashed, and before she could say anything, two white figures flew over: "Wenming, you're finally back! I was so scared!"

"Kara, Camille!"

Wen Ming was overjoyed to see the twin Super Girls: "You can fly now?"

"Hahaha, are you surprised? Are you surprised?"

Kara hugged Wenming's neck and said proudly, "After my sister Camille and I went back, we made sure to learn this skill first."

"That's great!"

Wen Ming was surprised by how hard the twin sisters worked: "You can order breakfast tomorrow morning. Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you!"

"Really? That's great!"

Kara hugged Wenming's head and kissed him, and Camille followed suit with a kiss of her own.

Diana watched this scene, and her eyes flashed again.

Could this be a way for the metaverse to express its feelings?
Just now, the Qinghou hugged and kissed Wenming, and these two sisters also hugged and kissed Wenming.

Wen Ming put the Super Girl sisters down and then introduced them: "This is Diana, the future Wonder Woman."

Wow, you're so beautiful, even more beautiful than a goddess.

Kara exclaimed in surprise.

Diana blushed slightly at the compliment: "You are all very beautiful too."

"Alright, let's talk in a bit. You all go back to the hotel first. Diana needs to go back and let her mother know she's safe. I'll tell everyone I'm fine."

Wen Mingchao and the others waved and grabbed Diana's hand again: "Diana, let's go. If you take a step back, you can return to your world."

"Ah good!"

Diana was still a little shy when her hand was grabbed again. She pulled Wen Ming back a step and then disappeared from the spot.

When Qinghou saw this, she smiled slightly.

It seems the boss is quite fast at figuring things out.

……

"Wow, I'm back again?"

Diana looked at the scene before her and exclaimed repeatedly, "Mother, it's amazing! I've actually gone to another world!"

Hippolyta was overjoyed and hugged Diana tightly: "Why did you take so long?"

"Was it a long time? It was only a little while, wasn't it?"

Diana looked at her aunt with a puzzled expression, and Antiop nodded: "You've been gone for a long time."

Diana turned to look at Wen Ming in surprise, while Wen Ming looked at Harley Quinn and asked, "How long have we been gone?"

"30 minutes!"

Harley glanced at her watch: "To be precise, it's 27 minutes."

"What? I feel like I was only gone for a minute or two!"

Diana looked at Wen Ming with a puzzled expression: "Is this the time flow you were talking about?"

"Yes, it seems that the time flow rate difference between the two universes is 1:10, which is also the universe with the fastest time flow rate among all the multiverses."

Wen Ming hadn't expected time to flow so fast in this universe, but considering that this was a separate spacetime within the DC universe, it wasn't surprising.

"So, if Diana spends 3 days in your universe, it will take me 30 days?"

The Queen of the Amazons immediately calculated the longest time her daughter would be away from her, within the rules.

Wen Ming nodded and said, "They usually don't stay for the full 3 days, but rather return to their own universe after 2 days, which is 20 days."

Queen Hippolyta breathed a slight sigh of relief. After thinking for a moment, she said, "It's very late tonight. You should all go and get some rest. We can discuss the follow-up matters tomorrow morning."

Wen Ming smiled happily. After going to such great lengths, he had finally gotten the Amazonian queen to agree.

Now, let's see how I press on step by step.

Diana had just experienced time travel, and she was still a little excited and unsatisfied. However, considering the 1:10 time difference, she had to suppress her excitement and obediently go back to her room.

As Harley and Melina were about to accompany Wen Ming to his room, a voice suddenly rang out: "Mr. Wen, I'd like to have a talk with you."

Harry's lips curled into a smile, and she immediately pulled Melina away quickly.

Wen Ming turned around, looked at the Amazonian female general Antiop in her military uniform, and gave a gentle smile: "Shall we go to your room, or mine?"

Antiop's eyes, like the deep night sky, shimmered with a longing for the unknown world.

Her long, golden hair cascaded casually over her shoulders, each strand seemingly bearing the marks of battle. Her eyebrows were perfectly groomed, displaying both a heroic spirit and feminine grace, especially when she furrowed her brows slightly, giving her a thoughtful and resolute air.

Dressed in the standard attire of an Amazon warrior—a simple outfit consisting of hunting leather armor and a battle skirt that accentuated her sculpted figure—she wore small trinkets symbolizing power hanging from her leather belt, and wristbands that served both as weapons and decorations.

Antiope's face bore the marks of time, the marks of countless battles, but these marks did not diminish her beauty; rather, they added a touch of maturity and wisdom. Her smile possessed a comforting power, while when she pressed her lips together, it exuded an undeniable authority.

"Let's go to my room."

Antiop was dashing and spoke succinctly. She led Wenming straight into the house next to the Queen's bedroom.

As soon as Wen Ming entered the room, he saw that it was full of knives, spears, clubs, swords, and armor. Surprisingly, there were not many feminine items in the entire room.

This made him raise his eyebrows involuntarily.

It seems that this Amazon general has devoted himself entirely to the defense of Paradise Island.

Am I destined to die in the next few days?

Antiop handed Wen Ming a glass of wine, then looked at him, his eyes showing no fear of death, as if he were asking an ordinary question.

However, Wen Ming's powerful mental strength allowed him to sense the female general's deep love and reluctance to leave Paradise Island.

Wen Ming nodded, then shook his head: "She won't die immediately, but she will most likely die within a few days after Diana kills Ares, the God of War."

"That won't be long."

Antiop, who had seen the movie, knew very well that this period of time was not long.

"There is a way to postpone it, which is to delay the time when Diana kills him, but that would cause more casualties, after all, the outside world is in the most intense moment of the war."

After Wen Ming explained, Antiop's face showed a hint of relief: "You're very good."

"Actually, this may not be a bad thing."

You have protected this island for thousands of years. Now is the time to shed this heavy responsibility and burden and experience a completely new life that is entirely your own.

Wen Ming's words made Antiop fall into deep thought: "A life of my own?"

"That's right. You can go to different universes to enjoy the scenery, go shopping and watch movies, sunbathe and feed pigeons. While doing these things, you don't have to worry about anyone attacking Paradise Island."

If you want to fight or go on an adventure, you can take on some missions that you like.

If you don't want to do anything, you can sleep until you naturally wake up.

You can even start a romantic relationship, form a new family, and have children of your own.

The future described by Wen Ming filled Antiop, who had never left Paradise Island, with longing.

She touched her belly and couldn't help but say, "Can I have my own child?"

"Of course. By the way, how do you Amazons reproduce? It seems there are no children on your island."

Wenming's question plunged Antiop into memories: "Our Amazonian race was once wiped out by men instigated by Ares, the god of war."

Upon learning of the annihilation of their race, the goddesses were filled with grief and indignation. They gathered together, including Venus, Athena, Ithemis, and others, and collected the souls of the deceased Amazons, placing them beneath the Lyre Sea.

These souls slowly merged with the soil, eventually becoming new Amazons.

"Oh? The Queen's bedtime stories are based on real people?"

"Yes."

Antiop said, "We were originally clay figures reborn by the goddesses. After we die, our souls return to the Sea of ​​the Harp and are reborn. This process is very quick, so there are no children on the island."

Because of Diana's unique circumstances, her story has become considered fabricated.

"So, Zeus, the king of the gods, and these goddesses all existed?"

Wen Ming astutely grasped the crux of the matter.

"probably."

When it came to his sister's affairs, Antiope was somewhat vague, but then he thought that the other party was the mysterious Lord of the spatial rift, who knew his fate perfectly well, so he naturally wouldn't be unaware of Zeus and his sister's affairs either. At most, he was just confirming it.

"Okay, Diana was indeed Zeus's daughter."

Antiop explained, "She is different from all of us; she is a demigod."

Wen Ming nodded with a gentle smile: "So, if your sister can have children, you can too."

An unusual light flickered in Antiop's eyes.

Yes.

My sister was able to have an affair with Zeus and give birth to Diana, so why can't I?
I have fought for Paradise Island for thousands of years without ever letting up. Now it is time for me to live for myself.

Thinking of this, her straight back, which had always been upright, relaxed slightly at this moment, and then she poured herself a large glass of wine: "They all call you boss, so I will call you boss from now on too."

I want to know, are all men in the metaverse as outstanding as you?

Her change in mindset gave her a lot more to think about.

The events of today were so miraculous that even Antiope, the female general whose heart was set on Paradise Island, now had her own little schemes.

Wen Ming nodded with satisfaction: "Of course, you'll meet many men there who are better than me. You just need to find the one that's most suitable for you."

Hearing Wenming describe the future, Antiop's eyes shone with even greater anticipation. She couldn't help but drink another large glass of wine before walking up to Wenming.

"I still don't quite believe what you're saying."

"Don't believe me?" Wen Ming was somewhat taken aback.

I've used so much of my words today, why don't you still believe me?
"Yes, I don't believe you're not the best, and if I'm going to look for someone, I'll definitely look for the best."

Antiop's eyes gleamed: "So, I want to test how strong you are and how fast you are first."

"You mean, we should fight?"

Wen Ming was somewhat astonished; these Amazons had been sealed off for thousands of years, and their thinking was indeed amazing.

Want to test how strong I am?

I don't even know how much power I have.

Believe it or not, I can punch you until you cry.

Antiop smiled and nodded, casually tearing off his battle robe.

"If you don't beat me so badly I can't stand up tonight, I won't willingly go with you."

Wen Ming shrugged: "Looks like I'll have to use my real skills. Tonight I guarantee you won't be able to stand up!"

Antiop licked his lips, revealing an excited expression.

"Come on, hurry, hurry, come on, I can't wait!"
