American comics: Starting with replicating Superman's talent

Chapter 184 Why don't you take off your clothes?

On top of the tower.

"So what is the world like?"

"There are grasslands, deserts, rainforests, oceans, and all sorts of strange creatures."

Diana gazed blankly at the full moon overhead and murmured, "That must be beautiful."

"Yes, it's beautiful, but there's a war going on right now," Gino replied casually.

"War? What war?" Diana frowned, her expression grave.

She gazed at the boy's profile and pleaded, "Can you tell me about it?"

"Hmm, it was probably World War I." Gino thought carefully. The German uniforms they had chased this morning were indeed those worn by the German army during World War I.

As a person from the future, Gino also knew the duration of the war: "It lasted for four years starting in 1914, during which a total of 2100 million people died and 2100 million were injured."

"Women, children, and unarmed civilians all died under bullets and guns. The land was burned, houses were destroyed, and the whole world was devastated."

The boy's calm words weighed heavily on Diana's heart.

She could almost see that scene: a helpless, crying child, a woman screaming and being humiliated.

The scorched earth after the fire was covered with debris.

"No, this isn't right."

Diana clenched her fist: "I learned from the history of the Amazons that humans are humble and kind creatures."

"And this large-scale war situation may be related to Ares, the god of war."

"Hmm, your history is indeed quite wild." Gino smiled.

"You don't believe me?" Diana was a little angry, but there was also a sense of disappointment that she herself was unaware of.

No, it's not that I don't trust you.

As a DC person, Gino knew that Ares, the God of War, truly existed.

"However, humans are like roly-poly toys, always oscillating between evil and good."

Gino rubbed his neck and said, "To borrow a phrase from a guy called Joker: madness is like gravity; you only need to give it a slight push, and that person is doomed."

"Therefore, this is also why Ares can easily incite humans to kill each other."

"Humans have a self-destructive tendency in their bones."

Hearing Gino's words, Diana's expression grew increasingly grave, her legs, which had been dangling in the air, trembled nervously: "Are we just going to watch them kill each other?"

"Aren't you a god? Shouldn't a god stop all of this?"

"My situation is a bit special." Gino shrugged. The history he learned from the future didn't mention any invincible gods descending from the sky to stop wars, so to avoid messing up the timeline and ruining his own world, he chose not to get involved in these conflicts.

"And I am not a god, strictly speaking, I am a slightly stronger human being."

"You call yourself a god only to intimidate your own kind."

"Humans?" Diana stared at Gino with the look of someone looking at an idiot. "I don't think a powerful human could force my teacher to kneel in the sand and be unable to lift his head."

"So you saw it today." Gino smiled, stood up, stretched, and let the night breeze caress his body.

Geno slowly lowered his head, his gaze falling on a terraced pool of water beneath the tower.

Unlike ordinary pools, the pool on Paradise Island, which Zeus created for the Amazons, emitted a rich blue aura that clung to the water, turning the entire pool a vibrant blue.

"That's Paradise Spring, we use it for bathing," Diana said to Gino with a smile, walking to the boy's side and temporarily forgetting her troubles.

"It can relieve fatigue, should I give it a try?"

"Of course, I'll give it a try."

"Then come with me." Diana turned around and prepared to lead Gino to the hot springs.

"Leave? We don't need to leave." Gino shook his head, staring at the tower below, which was only a hundred meters above the ground.

"But this is too high." Diana looked down at the ground beneath her feet, where jagged rocks stood, and she couldn't help but look back down.

I have never jumped from such a height before.

"What's wrong? Are you afraid of twisting your ankle, or getting hurt?" Gino turned his head and looked at the girl with a smile.

He looked down at the rocky area below and said calmly, "Don't worry, just jump down."

Gino knows Diana's strength; this woman is a formidable figure who can withstand a Kryptonian's headbutt in the future, but she is still very young and lacks confidence in herself.

Diana remained silent, slightly hesitant, perhaps she just needed some time to build up her courage.

But the voice that rang in her ears was like a bucket of hot water, extinguishing the last trace of concern in Diana's heart.

"I'll catch you."

Diana turned her head in surprise. The boy's eyes were clear and serious, and he gave her a gentle smile with a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth.

"Hoo." Taking a deep breath, Diana turned her head, clenched her fists, and exerted force with her legs.

"Splash!"

The armor clashed with a whooshing sound, like fledgling eagles soaring into the sky and then plummeting back down.

The air whistled past my ears, and the strong winds crashed against my face, making it impossible to open my eyes.

It seemed like a second or an instant had passed, and the distance to the ground was getting closer and closer. Diana frantically swung her arms, trying to adjust her falling posture.

"Snapped!"

As gentle as falling into the clouds, even the air felt lighter as they slowly descended, their bodies supported by the clouds.

The expected fall to the ground did not occur; instead, a pair of warm arms gently encircled the long legs and shoulders.

"How did you do that?"

Lying in Gino’s arms,

Diana stared incredulously at Gino's face.

"It's simple, just use your own force field to change the gravity around you." Gino gently released his grip, and Diana lightly leaped onto the ground.

After dispelling the force field, the two walked towards the pool.

"I don't understand, but it sounds impressive." Diana walked with her feet, her leather boots making a "rustling" sound on the dirt.

Walking to the edge of the pool, gazing at the water emitting a faint warmth, Diana gently pulled at her long braid.

Her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall as the girl gently pulled on her belt.

As her battle skirt slipped down, underwear seemingly made of mysterious silk was generously displayed in front of Gino.

"You." Gino was speechless, his gaze sweeping over the flat stomach without an ounce of fat.

Just as he was about to say something, Diana removed her clothes much faster than Gino had expected.

When Gino remembered to speak up and stop Diana, all that remained standing in front of him was a perfect shell, its beautiful curves resembling the eagle sculpture created by an ancient Greek artist.

A few black threads are woven into the mysterious triangle area.

The girl stretched and confidently showed off her figure before gently stepping into the lake.

Her soft, supple skin was immersed in the warm pool water, only half of her face visible. Her bright blue eyes blinked, lingering on Gino's white shirt. With a hint of doubt, she asked, "Why aren't you taking your clothes off?"
