American comics: Omniscient and omnipotent, starting from the melting pot of concepts.

Antiop glanced at his sister, his eyes seeming to say: See? I told you so. Aaron is a good person, he's our friend!

Paradise Island does not welcome outsiders, especially men.

But if it's Aaron... that perfectly fits the talent acquisition strategy.

Perhaps it can even bring new life to Paradise Island.

Hippolyta's breathing quickened, and she gave Diana a wink. Diana tried to retrieve the Lasso of Truth, but found it still bound to Aaron's wrist and couldn't be taken back.

"Do you have any other questions? If not, then I'll take this off."

Aaron smiled.

Upon hearing this, Diana asked with surprise and unease, "You knew everything? Then why..."

Aaron's gaze was deep. "I can see the unease and hesitation in your heart. In order not to make you feel embarrassed, I took the initiative to put myself in this position."

"At least... I've gained your trust, haven't I?"

Diana's face flushed even more. Her already shameful heart felt like ants crawling all over her—it was so painful!

Diana, oh Diana, look what you've done!

Aaron is so righteous and considerate, yet you doubt him and resort to such despicable means to extract information.

You really deserve to die!

"I'm sorry! I shouldn't have doubted you."

Diana's eyes welled up with tears as she frantically removed the Lasso of Truth from Aaron.

Normally the most agile and nimble female warrior, she now seemed like a novice, making people shake their heads in disbelief.

Aaron voluntarily cooperated with Diana to remove the Lasso of Truth.

Diana panicked even more, and after much difficulty, she took it off, covered her face, and ran out.

She also glared at Hippolyta, thinking it was all her mother's fault!

Hippolyta was even more embarrassed and apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, Mr. Aaron, we shouldn't have doubted you."

Aaron waved his hand, "Don't worry about it, I understand you. After all, you need to maintain the safety and peace of Paradise Island."

Hippolyta felt extremely uncomfortable upon hearing this.

Coupled with Aaron's handsome face, this feeling was even stronger.

What a fine young man, yet he was so easily doubted and schemed against.

Hippolyta took a deep breath. "Mr. Aaron, Miss Poole, please feel free to ask if you have any needs. We will do our best to meet them."

"Enjoy your rest on Paradise Island in the days to come."

"You will be Amazon's most distinguished guests."

Then, Hippolyta pulled Antiope away, her steps hurried.

After closing the door, Aaron could still hear Antiop's cold voice, as if she was quite dissatisfied with Hippolyta's behavior.

Gwen looked on in bewilderment. "What on earth happened?"

She didn't understand. All she asked was a few questions. Why was she acting so guilty and ashamed?

"That thing was a lasso of truth. Once it binds a target, it can't lie."

Gwen realized what was going on. "So they suspect our motives and are deliberately interrogating us?"

"Don't say that. After all, they need to consider their people."

Aaron said casually.

The footsteps outside the door became more hurried and frantic, and soon disappeared.

Aaron did not take Hippolyta and the others' actions to heart. In fact, after he gained the power of the Word, he was exempt from the power of the Word Lasso.

Of course, he wasn't lying; he just embellished the story a little.

Aaron didn't dwell on it any longer; just moments ago, while helping Diana untie the Lasso of Truth...

He casually fused the other party's abilities.

[DC Ancient God Power: You have gained some of the DC Ancient God Power characteristics, resulting in an increase in your overall strength.]

[Godslayer (Diana): You have acquired Diana's Godslayer traits, granting you a special attack bonus against divine beings and the ability to unleash even greater power (up to ten times)]

"A god-slayer? Is it because the purpose of Diana's birth was to kill gods?"

Aaron remembered Diana's origins.

Ares betrayed the gods and even injured Zeus and other deities.

He was eventually exiled by Zeus.

To counter the threat from Ares, Zeus deliberately spared Diana, who possessed many divine blessings, and bestowed upon her numerous divine artifacts.

Diana's purpose in life was to kill a god!

She is the god-slayer, the sharpest weapon.

He was destined to kill Ares, the god of war.

"It's not bad that we even had this gain."

This ability is even stronger than the power of the ancient gods in DC for Aaron.

Although the Old Gods in the DC universe are powerful, they are clearly not the same as those in the comics.

For Aaron, this ability was of little significance.

Aaron was thinking,

There was another knock on the door.

Sense carefully,

Aaron's lips curled into a smile. "Pool, I have to go out for a bit."

Gwen glanced at Aaron, then at the direction of the door, and instantly realized something.

She couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Go ahead, just remember to come back soon."

For some reason, Gwen felt the air was a little sour.

I felt quite sad.

Chapter 237 The Dark Universe? The Terrifying Ares

Night, on the beach of Paradise Island,

Diana blushed and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have doubted your motives."

Aaron said nonchalantly, "Don't worry about that. If I were you, I would make the same choice when faced with a complete stranger."

"After all, I'm just an outsider, while you... need to be responsible for your sisters."

Diana's expression changed slightly. "That's not what I meant. Actually, I never doubted you, it's just... it's just..."

Diana did not reveal that this was Hippolyta's intention.

In fact, she also opposed Hippolyta's probing behavior.

But the other party was, after all, her mother, the Queen of the Amazon Kingdom.

"I know all that, it's all in the past, isn't it?"

Aaron remained calm, as if nothing had happened.

But Diana always felt a deep sense of guilt.

Such a good person, and they treated him like this.

It's really inappropriate.

Mother, oh mother

Diana gazed at Aaron's perfect profile, which, under the shimmering starlight, was irresistibly captivating.

"What are you looking at?"

In a daze, Diana was startled awake by Aaron's question.

"Ah, 497, no, I didn't see anything."

Diana turned her head awkwardly to look at the sea surface, which was bubbling with excitement due to the sea breeze.

"I was just wondering what kind of apocalyptic crisis you were talking about earlier would be."

"Maybe it's Ares?" Aaron guessed.

"How did you know?" Diana asked, puzzled.

“I can tell that you attach great importance to this name. When you mention him, your voices and eyes are filled with hatred.”

"Is the god of war your enemy?"

Aaron looked into Diana's eyes and said with certainty.

Diana hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Actually, this matter begins after the ancient war..."

Aaron listened patiently.

It is simply the story of how, during the ancient war, the Greek gods united with humans, Atlantis, Paradise Island, and the Green Lantern Corps to fight against the new god Darkseid.

Ares amassed immense power during that war, and after the victory, he harbored other ambitions.

Having experienced the immense divine power he gained during the ancient war, Ares could no longer tolerate his weak self during peacetime.

He needs to maintain the war for his own benefit and to keep his divine power growing.

Therefore, he repeatedly instigated wars between countries around the world, chose his own proxies, and launched numerous large-scale battles.

He secretly provided assistance to both sides until the matter was exposed and met with resistance from the gods.

Ares cruelly murdered many gods, and Zeus, despite being injured, personally intervened to defeat Ares.

Zeus then left behind the "weapon of gods" for Paradise Island to keep in order to deal with the lurking god of war, Ares.

“Our mission is to maintain peace and resist Ares, the god of war. According to you, if there really is a world-ending crisis, it may indeed be related to Ares.”

Diana said with concern.

"No, I need to go find my mother to get the God-Slaying Weapon. Now that you mention it, I have a feeling he might have already returned."

Aaron looked up at the twinkling stars in the distance.

"It's not 'maybe,' he's already here."

Aaron pointed to the eerie red star in the distance, "That is the star that represents Ares, the god of war. War and chaos have already descended."

Do not know why,

Aaron always felt that something was wrong with this world.

In an instant, he crossed thousands of miles of ocean and saw the battlefield in Europe.

At this very moment, the battlefields of Europe are engulfed in flames.

World War II was at its most intense.

Death and smoke are the theme song of this era.

Amidst the hail of bullets, there was a heavy and terrifying aura.

Everyone looked incredibly crazy.

They seem to be obsessed with war and killing, glorifying blood and violence.

Aaron had seen World War II in another universe, but he was certain that there were subtle differences between the two universes.

Diana noticed that Aaron's expression was a little off.

She asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"Something is very wrong with this world; the forces of darkness are extremely active."
