I, the younger brother of Superman, ended up with a Thanos template.

Paradise Island is picturesque, with an exceptionally blue sky, like a pure blue glass inverted on its surface. The air is so fresh that every breeze is free of impurities, and lush, pristine jungles can be seen everywhere on the island.

There are also majestic, ancient, and classically styled stone palace complexes scattered among the mountains.

Even the most exquisite painting will become tiresome after thousands of years, just as there is no place on the island that the Amazon princess is unfamiliar with, and it brings no novelty.

"This is the pure land that Zeus bestowed upon the Amazons, free from the harm of Ares, the god of war."

Diana longed to leave the island and see the sights.

But her mother, Hippolyta, the queen of the Amazons, had repeatedly emphasized that she was not allowed to go out, and that no Amazon was allowed to leave the island, lest they attract the evil gaze of Ares.

Thousands of years have left no trace on Diana; her skin is as smooth as silk, her features are exquisite and heroic, and her long, curly black hair is like ebony, making her look noble and extraordinary.

Because of her isolation from the world and lack of experience, Diana's bright eyes, like those in a mirror-like lake, still retained a touch of girlish innocence. Out of boredom, she tossed a pebble into the distant sea.

Boom!

The pebble flew over a hundred meters and landed in the sea.

call!

A figure moved with lightning speed, turning and crossing hundreds of meters of seawater, leaving a long trail of white waves behind. He stopped on the pristine beach, looking around with interest.

"Paradise Island is indeed as its name suggests."

Chapter 82. Arrogance!

Through an invisible veil, David finally found Paradise Island.

"The scenery here is truly like paradise."

Especially after passing through the gloomy sky, raging winds and torrential rain, and the raging sea outside, just a scene away, inside is a cloudless expanse of blue, where the sea and sky merge into one, an unbelievably pure blue.

Tweet!

A gentle breeze blows, and seagulls cry out as they fly gracefully across the sky.

The contrast between the two makes it seem as if what I just experienced was just an illusion, giving me the feeling of having traveled to another world—a paradise.

"man?"

Diana blinked in confusion, seemingly oblivious, and then suddenly stood up from the cliff.

She wondered if she was hallucinating, seeing outsiders entering Paradise Island from the outside.

Bang!

Wearing a gold, form-fitting battle dress and a starry tiara, Diana jumped off a sea cliff dozens of meters high and landed on the beach like a cannonball. Her long, shapely legs steadily supported and neutralized the enormous force of her fall.

"Are you a man?"

She looked at David with curiosity and surprise, as if she had seen a novel creature she had never seen before.

"Short hair, no chest, Adam's apple, and strong features—he looks exactly like the man in the painting."

After thousands of years of monotonous life, a novel change finally entered her world.

[Diana's curiosity +85, joy +81...]

"Of course I'm a man."

With her crown, battle skirt, and golden rope tied around her waist, she looked both beautiful and heroic. A hint of surprise appeared between David's brows, and he smiled.

Unexpectedly, the first Amazon I met on Paradise Island was Wonder Woman.

He also considered the possibility that Wonder Woman might have left the island, encountered other experiences due to the time ripples he created, and gone to other places.

Is that so strange?

"No, there are many men, but this is the first time I've seen a man. There are no men on Paradise Island."

Diana looked surprised.

"How did you get in?"

"Could it be as my mother sometimes says when she looks out at night with worry, that the divine power of Zeus, the king of the gods, has been weakening over the millennia, and the magical barrier may not be able to protect Paradise Island for much longer?"

She looked David up and down, her gaze sweeping over his Adam's apple and face repeatedly, while she murmured excitedly.

"Men seem to be even more handsome than those depicted in paintings."

But why don't you have a beard?

Diana looked puzzled; this was different from what she had seen in the painting.

"Because I'm not old enough yet."

Being asked why he didn't have a beard easily reminded people of eunuchs in the palace, David said to the innocent-looking Wonder Woman in front of him with a hint of annoyance.

"How old are you? Three thousand years old?"

Diana asked curiously, revealing an age that seemed young to her.

The Amazons are an immortal race; every single one of them has outlived the Rashomon.

"He has been immersed in the Pool of Lazarus for many years, and he has gained immortality at the cost of his personality being twisted. Everyone here has it."

A strange light flashed in David's eyes.

Not to mention Diana, the offspring of Zeus, the king of the gods, and the Amazon queen; a few thousand years is nothing compared to Wonder Woman's long, almost endless lifespan.

"A race that lives forever, how wonderful."

A smile crept onto his lips.

Once the Amazons are defeated, the islanders will be able to provide him with the emotional points he needs indefinitely.

"Wait a minute, are you strong enough to run on the sea?"

The man in front of her seemed to have a sinister look in his eyes. For some reason, a chill suddenly ran down her spine. Diana, like a bewildered female leopard with its fur standing on end, took a step back and assumed a fighting stance.

"Mother was worried that the magical barrier was weakening, and Ares found us."

"Are you Ares?!"

The naive brain found a reasonable explanation.

David looked into Diana's untainted innocence and remained silent for a moment.

"Diana, stay away from him!"

With a thunderous thud of hooves, a still-charming and majestic queen rode in, leading hundreds of valiant Amazonian warriors.

She sensed that the magical barrier had been activated and that someone had broken into Paradise Island.

Moreover, the magical barrier reacted very strongly, indicating that it was not a mortal who had mistakenly entered.

Hippolyta was alarmed and hurriedly led a portion of her army to the wide sea cliff. There she found her daughter standing with the outsiders, only a few meters apart. Her face changed drastically, and she shouted.

"Archers, prepare!"

A group of valiant Amazonian warriors raised their bows and arrows, their muscles beautifully defined and their arms powerful. With a sickening thud as the bowstrings were pulled, arrows gleaming coldly were aimed at David on the beach.

The dust kicked up by the horses' hooves followed, and female warriors with grim faces kept arriving.

"Outsider, state your identity!"

Hippolyta drew her sword, glared angrily, pointed it at David, and shouted.

Since they are not ordinary people, the possibility of them arriving here by accident is too small.

Please don't be Ares's pioneer in searching for Paradise Island.

shhhhh!

Two arrows landed at David's feet, carrying a warning. He raised an eyebrow, ignoring them as if they were two small twigs stuck in the ground.

[Vigilance from Hippolyta +10.1, Hostility +5.1...]

Vigilance from Antiope +6.5... Vigilance from Creteira +2.2...

A barrage of mood-related notifications flooded in like a waterfall, almost overwhelming David.

The emotional impact this group of Amazons could provide easily exceeded what Clark could provide in terms of emotional intensity at the same time.

"It seems I made the right choice coming to Paradise Island."

Not all Amazonians are here.

call out!

Diana swung the Lasso of Truth from her waist, tearing through the air and lashing it sharply at David, intending to help her mother and people control the outsider first.

"Is this the Lasso of Truth?"

David reached out and swiftly grabbed the rope. The golden Mantra Lasso wrapped around his arm, and he looked at it with a hint of curiosity, his eyes gleaming.

The Lasso of Truth is said to have been forged by Hephaestus, the Greek god of fire and a master craftsman, using the golden belt of Gaia, the goddess of the earth, as its material. It is said to be indestructible and unbreakable.

"Legend has it that even Hercules could not break it, and those trapped under it could only tell the truth."

She intended to use the Lasso of Truth to lasso David's waist and bind his hands, but unexpectedly, the Lasso she swung out was caught, and shock appeared on Diana's beautiful and heroic face.

“Ever since I was a child, no one on the island has been able to keep up with my speed, not even my mother.”
