The mechanical craze in Marvel

This is the attitude of an overbearing leader, as if they completely disregard the nerves around them. However, for Nolan Locke, this isn't a major problem.

He looked at the others and then spoke.

"The Red Queens have found the location of Ares, the God of War."

Upon hearing Roland Locke's words, everyone looked towards the entrance they had come from.

The Flash, Barry Allen, was utterly shocked. The speed was simply too fast. They had only decided to defeat Ares not long ago, and in such a short time, they hadn't even had a chance to act.

But Nolan Locke had already found the location of Ares, the God of War. At this moment, Paris Aaron suddenly felt that he understood why Nolan Locke had found his identity so easily.

Such terrifying intelligence capabilities.

Are there any secrets in this central city that he doesn't know about?

Chapter 464

Nora Locke offered no explanation for the shock that Barry Allen, the Flash, felt. He did possess considerable intelligence on Central City, but the gap between his capabilities and the rest of the world was enormous. He had focused all his abilities on Central City, leaving no other bases, which was why he had achieved his current success. Even so, it was still a layer of mystery; many greater, unknown forces existed within the story.

Central City is, after all, the city where The Flash exists. There are also a great deal of other unknown forces in this city. Moreover, because of the particle accelerator explosion in Central City, a channel of superpowered people has emerged. This has also led to many forces getting involved in the matter of Rookie. After all, the existence of superpowers is a huge security threat to all parties. Therefore, although Nolan Locke has been working hard to fully grasp the situation in the entire Central City system.

However, these efforts were not successful. Nevertheless, discovering the Flash's existence wasn't too difficult; while his existence was a secret, it wasn't entirely hidden. Knowing he frequently roamed the streets of Central City made it extremely difficult to find any information about him. After making their decision, Central began planning their operation against Ares, the God of War, whose power was immense.

Moreover, his power comes from war, so what they need to do is find Gareth's existence and then not give him any chance. They must quickly eliminate him. Only under such circumstances can this matter be resolved. Otherwise, if the God of War Ares escapes, his power will inevitably cause a storm in various places, and the possibility of demolition will increase significantly. After all, all of the God of War Ares's power comes from war.

He couldn't possibly be without other means. If he wanted to, he could very well stir up trouble all over the world. It's just that everyone doesn't have that idea right now, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have the ability. Under these circumstances, everyone is very wary of strengthening Ares, and many people, including Locke, are naturally the same. On the other hand, the war confidants have no idea about their thoughts at all.

While sipping his coffee, the warrior Iris was pondering matters concerning Sun Jingxia and Diana. He didn't know much about his dear sister, as he had never seen her in person and his knowledge of her came entirely from rumors from outside the province. He knew that Diana was his nemesis, so he was well aware that if Diana were to get the opportunity, it would definitely not be a good thing for him.

However, she herself was very clear that if she were to go to war with Diana, she would inevitably be subject to some limitations. The reason was very simple: since it was a mythological phenomenon, it meant that there would inevitably be something within her that could restrict her, which would not be a good thing for her. Therefore, she had already made corresponding preparations for this, and she was prepared for all kinds of confrontation, all in order to deal with Diana's existence.

However, even the warrior Iris wasn't very familiar with the city of Central City. He had just arrived and it would take him a long time to establish his intelligence network. He wasn't in a hurry either. After all, while his target was the Corruptionist, since it was his legendary nemesis, he wouldn't easily appear before Diana, even though he knew he couldn't possibly contend with her.

However, he is Ares, the God of War. Given that he has instigated countless wars, it means he is not someone who acts impulsively. Therefore, he will not appear before Wonder Woman Diana. His task is to gradually lay the groundwork throughout Central City. Once a comprehensive trap is in place, he will then strike. He doesn't want any other events in Central City to cause any flaws in his plan. If that happens, and Wonder Woman Diana finds any leverage against him, it will be a catastrophic disaster for him.

It can be said that the warrior Ares's thinking was very rational. Even Nolan Locke did not expect that the God of War Ares could be so calm. However, Ares did not appear in any public places in the past few days and his actions were quite secretive. That was not what Nolan Locke wanted to control.

Furthermore, Ares's actions were not easy, and Nolan Locke was certain that Ares had not been idle. He had been contacting various central city cases, trying to use this opportunity to start a chaotic battle in the central city. And he did succeed. Although Nolan Locke and his group had long since grasped the existence of Jiangshan City, the affairs between groups were not so simple. And the leadership on December 4th was really too much. If they wanted to stop Ares, they had to confront him head-on. Under such circumstances, they absolutely could not allow him to find even the slightest opportunity.

Because they only had one chance, Nanlu and the others knew that Xiangsi had left the central city, but they didn't immediately notify me. If they acted immediately, it might lead to some mistakes and allow Ares to escape. Then Ares might not appear in the central city, and things would become even more troublesome. Nolan Locke was very clear about this, so he had no intention of holding back at all.

In this situation, as soon as a week passed, during which the God of War February kept in touch with the various forces in the central city, he successfully provoked them and they started all sorts of cases. Norlan Locke and Rick sent people to inform them of these cases.

He informed them of his plans to defeat Ares. Although he didn't reveal the details of the battle, he still managed to mediate some of the conflict. However, even so, resolving all the conflict was extremely difficult. Nolan Locke was somewhat surprised by the current situation. He looked at Diana and said:

“We really underestimated your dear brother. His power is too great. Although he hasn’t been in Central City for very long, he has already taken control of most of the situation in Central City. Now he knows everything about Central City. He probably even knows what kind of socks our mayor’s wife wears.”

Under such circumstances, it would be far too easy for him to start a war. He could easily create chaos, and once chaos erupts, it would be a very bad thing for us.

Norman Locke couldn't help but complain. Hearing Nolan Locke's complaint, he could only smile helplessly. He had already had some contact with Nolan Locke, and after so many days of interaction, he gradually came to know what kind of person Nolan Locke was. Although Nolan Locke was a somewhat unruly person, he was not a bad guy at heart.

At least the Nolan Locke he had encountered hadn't exhibited similar behavior, which softened his opinion of Locke somewhat. He had initially felt an instinctive aversion to Locke upon first meeting him, but that aversion had gradually dissipated over the past few days. He knew that first impressions were merely based on appearance, without any real understanding of the person's character. Now, with his growing acquaintance and understanding of Locke, he believed that the Locke he was currently interacting with was the real Locke.

Unfortunately, Diana was unaware that Lalo's nature was multifaceted. Although Lalo had his own principles, they were not so fixed in this matter.

At least Norlock is not the kind of good person that everyone imagines. Norlock has his own ideas and principles, and he will only act according to his principles. So, although Diana thinks she understands Norlock, she actually doesn't know much about him.

Moreover, in Nolan Locke's view, Diana's initial impression of him was the most accurate, and indeed, he was a very dangerous person. Although Locke might not necessarily be a bad guy to Diana, he was definitely a dangerous individual. Not interacting with Nolan Locke might have been a mistake for him as well. However, now that things had already happened, there was no other choice. The moment their paths crossed, the gears of fate for the entire world began to turn.

“That’s true, but I think you must have more information about this matter. I believe you can find Zhen Yusi’s weakness so that we can basically take control of Ruis. Also, I hate your analogy.”

Otherwise, when Locke heard Diana's answer, he just shrugged and didn't refute anything. Although the analogy was a bit rough, he thought it was a perfect analogy, and he believed that the War Moon World could definitely do it. So, for Nolan Locke, he didn't care much about this. However, since Diana cared about this, he didn't care either, so Nolan Locke changed the subject.

"I have some ideas about Zhang Jiaruisi, but dealing with the real Ruisi is not an easy task. However, this does not mean that we cannot fight against him. Although Ares is powerful, he still has a huge weakness. He has existed in this area for many years, and he is not like the legendary God of War."

Because the legendary God of War is supposed to be extremely warlike, but from what I understand, Ares has long since lost that trait, and now, coupled with Ares's shrewdness in management, he will instigate wars in various places to make himself even stronger. However, he may have forgotten one thing.

Iris's divine power never came from strategy, but from war. Although constantly manipulating war would grant him some divine power from the entire world, he had lost his fighting instinct. Divine power and the fighting instinct cannot be balanced. Under these circumstances, I believe Iris has long since lost his peak condition.

Nolan Locke shook his head. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way. The warrior Ares was probably no longer as powerful as he had been at his peak; he had truly changed. Nolan Locke didn't believe that a war god like Ares, who had changed so much, could still be called a god of war.

Now he's just a coward, he's long lost the will to win. Under these circumstances, Nolan Locke doesn't think their battle will fail. After hearing Locke's words, Diana nodded. She agreed with Locke's point of view. Although she hadn't thought as much as Locke before, after hearing Nolan Locke's words, Diana felt that this was a very normal thing, and it made her very happy.

The reason is very simple: Ares has now lost the essence of the tutorial. That means their chances of winning have increased slightly. After all, the power of Ares, the God of War, is still very strong. If they didn't have that kind of strength, it would be very difficult to defeat him. Now that Ares's strength has been weakened, it means they are more vulnerable. Having won, Diana looked at Nolan Locke and asked:

"So how can we find Ares, the God of War? I know the situation, but if we can't find Ares, then all your subsequent plans will be impossible. And we only have one chance. If he escapes, we may never have such a good opportunity again."

Locke's lips curled into a smile, and then he looked at Diana and spoke.

"It's actually very simple. Ares' target is you, so as long as you show your true colors, he will definitely fall for it. In this situation, I need you to act as bait to lure out Ares, the God of War. As long as you can lure him out, everything else will fall into place."

It's not a particularly difficult task, but it carries a certain degree of risk, so I need to ask for your opinion. Are you willing to do it?

Chapter 465

Hearing Nolan Locke's request for his opinion.

But that time he nodded without hesitation. This was what he had to do. Since he was the one who brought this matter, he naturally had to deal with the most dangerous thing. If it was about dealing with the God of War Ares, then it was something he had to accomplish. He couldn't possibly accept making other areas the most dangerous while valuing everyone else.

After all, he was Wonder Woman Diana; those two words had never crossed his mind. Under these circumstances, you quickly reached a consensus. The decision was made to draw the attention of the warrior Iris, while the others set up an encirclement. At the same time, it was necessary to clear out the surrounding enemies to prevent other dangers from arising while they were engaged in combat. After all, if anyone else were involved in this battle, it would definitely be an external factor.

This is extremely unsettling for them. After all, the power they have now isn't strong enough, while the power used by Ares is far too great. If it really is Ares or another superhuman in this central city, then it will be an extremely bad thing for their entire battle.

Therefore, under these circumstances, Nolan Locke's first priority is to find Ares, the God of War. All his current targets must first eliminate Ares' allies before they can deal with the warrior, Ares. Otherwise, if problems arise, it will be an insurmountable obstacle for them. Although Nolan Locke now possesses considerable power, he does not wish to unleash his full strength in this battle.

He hoped to resolve the battle against Ares relatively easily, since personally appearing in the battle to kill them would be an extremely difficult task, one he was unwilling to undertake. Of course, if it could be done safely, he wouldn't mind. However, for Locke, this matter wasn't too important right now. After all, the current battle was using Ares's power, which he wasn't entirely clear about, but that didn't matter at all.

The current global war isn't particularly intense, meaning his power hasn't reached its peak. Under these circumstances, his forces can't easily resolve the situation. Therefore, Nolan Locke has made the necessary preparations, and soon his plan will begin to be implemented. The first thing Nolan Locke needs to do is find allies of Ares, the God of War. Meanwhile, Ares, after entering the central city, has been sowing discord in various regions.

He was indeed searching for friends. Although he knew that Diana's power was inferior to his, his primary concern was ensuring his own safety. He wouldn't do anything else; that was his way of doing things. Under these circumstances, he easily found allies, given the abundance of superpowered individuals in the city. These superpowered beings were unwilling to settle for mediocrity, and after meeting Gaares, they quickly formed a partnership to fight Wonder Woman.

This is also a very important matter for many superheroes, after all, the current situation in Central City involves two superheroes, not only in terms of type, but also because the recent activities of the artifact under its control are enough to prove the danger it poses to this superhero. The cooperation between Iris and them is very simple: they help Iris apply for endorsements, and Iris will help them in return. If Lightning can eliminate these two superheroes, it will be a great thing for all the superheroes in Central City; they will be able to reap huge benefits and won't have to worry about the future.

Faced with this situation, Nolan Locke immediately devised a plan: they had to eliminate these guys first, otherwise things would become very bad, and they would inevitably be completely surrounded by the warrior Ares and his group. However, even though they already knew the enemy's plan...

However, executing this plan is extremely difficult. Ares, the God of War, is not so easily attracted. Once his attention is drawn, he will immediately notify all his allies to assemble; otherwise, he would never do it so readily. Therefore, Nolan Locke's task is to first lure those people out, and then lure Ares out, while simultaneously conducting a 2000-man operation. Only in this way can he ensure that they are not surrounded.

This would be an extremely difficult task for others, but not for Noah Locke. Noah Locke's power was not weak either. He owned Locke Technology Company, which might not have been very useful at other times, but it could play a significant role at this moment. He had already built up a certain network of connections, which gave him a certain degree of influence in the upper echelons of Central City. This influence, in turn, made him even stronger. All of this was the result of what Locke had been working for over a period of time. This was his true foundation, not just his own strength. Although his own strength was considerable, it was incomparable to the enemies he had. All of this was what Noah Locke possessed, and it didn't take long for him to achieve this.

Locke had already made the necessary preparations. For these superhumans, some of their evil intentions naturally wouldn't be content with the ordinary; they had their own ideas. Not long after, Nolan Locke seized an opportunity: a superhuman was planning to rob a bank. This was a very bad thing, but because Locke had already set up the entire central city's defense network in advance, he easily found out about it.

After realizing this situation, he was able to make corresponding arrangements. They weren't just one superhuman; they needed to lure out all the other possible superhumans who were allied with Ares to be effective. So, in the short term, Da Lu used other methods to lure all the other superhumans to their dispersed locations. Sasha Ares quickly realized this possibility after Nolan Locke's operation, but he wasn't very confident yet; it was just a guess. He could only suppress his unease for now. However, Ares soon realized that his thinking was indeed wrong.

The superhumans had already been separated by Nolan Locke, and wars soon broke out in various places. The creators were completely unaware of Nolan Locke's intention to attack them, which made Locke's move so sudden and unexpected. They were naturally very confident in their superhuman abilities. However, this confidence wasn't a major problem for Nolan Locke. His technology company's Terminator series machines were prepared for this situation. While these superhumans were powerful, not all the creators possessed the means to counter the Terminators.

The weapons and firepower possessed by the other Terminators were enough to instill extreme fear in these superhumans. Not everyone's strength could contend with the ultimate Gatling gun, and the Terminator's own strength was not insignificant. Therefore, except for a few special superhumans, most superhumans were easily dealt with. However, this was not the end. After all, their task was not so simple. To fight Rhys, it wasn't enough to just eliminate the previous enemies; they had to eliminate everyone before they could feel at ease. So, the other Terminators immediately launched their operation. And when discussing these operations...

Diana also began what she needed to do, and went into a coffee shop. The coffee shop was Ares's favorite place; it was located in the very center of the city, offering a panoramic view of everything. It provided a complete overview of the city's situation. Under these circumstances, Diana sat quietly in the coffee shop, sipping her coffee, with Nolan Locke sitting opposite her.

At this moment, the person wearing the artifact was dressed simply, in modern clothes, not in ancient armor, while Nolan Locke was also wearing a suit.

It makes people look very relaxed, and that's exactly what attracted Ares. Although I didn't originally intend to take any risks, Lanlock decided to take action himself in this situation. After all, only by taking action himself can he be sure that this is a lie. Otherwise...

This could easily lead to other problems, and Nolan Locke is very confident in his power. His superpower is absolute spatial deceleration. As long as he can detect the presence of Rhys in the town, his spatial deceleration can be activated, which means he is actually in an absolutely safe state. Moreover, he has also deployed countless guards around him to protect their safety, and Diana, although not wearing any protective gear...

However, its station can be equipped at any time, and Diana's power will definitely not allow the warrior Ares to suddenly appear in front of them. After all, the location they are in now seems to have no defense, but in fact, the defense is full of defenses everywhere. As long as Ares appears anywhere, he can completely pin him down in an instant.

All they had to do was find Ares, the god of war, which was a very simple matter.

Even though he was absolutely confident in his abilities, he still didn't let his guard down.

Lingling sipped her coffee while discussing recent events.

Diana looked at Durandok and then said:

"To be honest, I had a very bad impression of you when I first met you. I thought you must be a terrible person, so when I made my move, I didn't hold back at all."

Hearing this, Nolan Locke simply smiled and then spoke.

"Of course, I saw through your thoughts back then. Your action didn't seem like you were going to stay behind. It seemed to me that you were probably planning to shave your head and deliver the egg. But I never expected that we would have this kind of relationship later, that we would even be sitting here having coffee together now. Unfortunately, we may be facing a rather troublesome battle next. Speaking of which, if we resolve this battle, could we sit here and have coffee together?"

Wonder Woman Diana nodded.

"Of course, I think after dealing with Warrior Rhys, I'll easily get to that point. There might be some time then, and it wouldn't be a bad situation for us to have coffee here. But before that, we need to deal with Warrior Rhys first. Ares isn't someone who wants to be defeated; if he gets his chance, the whole world will be engulfed in war. Now that we're sitting here, I'm not sure if Ares will show up, because I can't be sure if he'll be aware of our previous arrangement. If he is aware of the previous plan, then he definitely won't be here."

After all, while Arisa possessed immense strength, he was also extremely cautious, making it incredibly difficult to lure him out under special circumstances.

Nolan Walker didn't care too much about this. He already had everything under control. Moreover, Red Queen had been monitoring Ares' situation. Although Red Queen couldn't keep Ares under constant surveillance, the area around the coffee shop was covered with cameras, and Red Queen could detect anyone who appeared there.

Zhan Sares's power is extremely strong. Although he has a sense of things, his reconnaissance ability is also very strong. So as soon as Sares appears here, he can react immediately and will not give Zhang Shan any chance. In this situation, it is difficult to even have the slightest chance. There is no chance to use it at all. So if he just nods.

"Don't worry, Ares will definitely come here. It shouldn't be that Zhang Jiaruis has already arrived."

As he spoke, Nolan Locke's expression gradually turned cold. He knew that Charis had already appeared in the coffee shop and would soon walk in. Once he walked in, a great battle would inevitably break out. Apart from the gods, they had no other helpers around them. After all, if there were other helpers, they would have come over by now.

Without Ares seeing the other helpers, he wouldn't have entered the café to attack them. In this situation, Lightning Bolt was able to react quickly and arrive to help them. Therefore, in the first wave, they had to rely on their combined strength to fight Ares.

Chapter 466

Ares, the God of War, had indeed arrived here. He saw the coffee shop, Nolan Locke inside, and placed an order. He already knew about the two of them. After entering the city, he immediately used his power to infiltrate various parties and gather information about the place.

At the same time, he controlled the intelligence here and quickly grasped most of the situation with his abilities. Although some secret information could not be penetrated by him in a short time, at least now he had figured out what the situation here was. Therefore, he knew Nolan Locke's identity and why Diana was here.

Although he wasn't sure if Chen Junjia's purpose in coming here was to kill him, he knew that the reason the neurotic object was here was inextricably linked to Nolan Locke. Under such circumstances, he had reason to believe that Nolan Locke and Wonder Woman Diana would team up against him. Even so, he still came here because he was very clear, or even very certain, about what kind of variables Nolan Locke and Wonder Woman Diana could bring.

However, none of them could contend with him, for a very simple reason: he could regenerate Rhys. Although there wasn't a war system as large as it used to be on Earth, there were all sorts of wars and conflicts around the world, which were his source of power. Under such circumstances, although his current power hadn't reached his previous peak, it was definitely not weak. He didn't believe that Nolan Locke and the nerves beneath him could defeat him.

So he didn't create any fear at all; in his eyes, none of this mattered. And he was already impatient; he didn't want to wait any longer. In fact, if he continued to wait, he wasn't sure if Nolan Locke and Wonder Woman would do something else. After all, while Diana had just come from Paradise Island, which was enough to prove that Diana was completely clueless, Nolan Locke was different; he was an arms dealer.

Under such circumstances, Diana would definitely be lured by Nolan Locke. Nolan Locke is definitely not a simple person. After all, a simple person could not become an arms investor. So, this company did not give them any time to continue. If they continued to drag it out, then it would be dangerous for Zhan Xiazi. So now that this opportunity has come, he has no reason to give it up.

However, some recent events have indeed puzzled him. After all, he had contacted many allies, but these allies have encountered various problems in a short period of time. Some have been arrested, some have been entangled in other places, and some have gone missing.

Under these circumstances, he found himself isolated. It had taken him several days to gather these allies, but he knew they weren't entirely reliable, given their relatively short time in the game. Their dependability was uncertain, which was why he hadn't taken it to heart. If he had, he would have had to rely on these friends, and for Battlefield Rhys, he would never depend too much on them. Friends were merely a protective measure, a safeguard.

But now that his allies have failed, he no longer cares why they haven't shown up. His only goal is to defeat Lorock and Diana, and then he can completely control this world. After all, Wonder Woman Diana of Paradise Island is his nemesis. But he's already here, and the moment he appeared, the entire dynamic shifted. For Rhys, this is his territory.

However, it was clearly unaware that Nolan Locke had already made preparations for all of this, and that Nolan had long ago planned to hunt down the monstrous Ares. So, while Ares seemed to think he had everything under control, from Nolan Locke himself, everyone here—from the cameras to the people—was Nolan Locke's man; there was no exception.

It could even be said that apart from the two of them, there was no one else alive. Everything around them was adjusted and altered by the robots that acted as intermediaries. These Terminator robots possessed incredibly powerful systems. Although they might not be able to exert much power against Gacharis, they could at least have some impact on him. Under these circumstances, Nolan Locke's large army of robots served as the primary defense for the surrounding area, interfering with Gacharis's actions. Even though the warrior Iris was very powerful, he could not completely avoid the hostility of these war robots.

Soon, Ares, the warrior, entered the coffee shop. He saw Nolan Locke and Diana approaching. Nolan Locke and Diana didn't show any surprise; they both looked at Ares, the God of War. Diana's face turned icy, but Nolan Locke wore a faint smile. Surprisingly, Diana directly addressed Ares:

"Ares! Now that you're here, you're dead."

But upon hearing these words, Iris's face showed not even a trace of fear. He had arrived long ago and was fully prepared for this situation, so he knew perfectly well what methods Diana might use, he was already fully aware of them, and therefore he wasn't worried at all. After finishing speaking about Diana, he simply looked at Diana below him, smiled faintly, and then began to speak.

"Really? My dear sister, it's been so long since we last met, or rather, this is our first meeting. I never expected things to be so tense between us. Perhaps we can calm down a bit. I don't think it's such a big problem, is it? It would be better if we cooperated than before."

Have you considered this possibility? If we cooperate, then no one in the world would be our ally. In that case, we could completely control the world; the entire world would be under our control. At that time, you wouldn't need to worry about anything else, unlike now. Although our father sent you to kill me, you should know that my power is immense, while yours is extremely weak. In this situation, you have no standing whatsoever. It's better for us to cooperate. If you're willing to cooperate with me, I can guarantee to share my power with you; half of the world will belong to you.”

Ares was unabashedly trying to seduce her. Although he didn't believe Diana would listen to his sedition, he didn't think these words were interfering with him. Moreover, his gaze was not only on the spokesperson of "New Youth" but also on Southeast Locke. He knew very well that Nolan Locke also had a certain status in this matter. If getting rid of Locke could reveal his ideas, it would directly affect Diana.
