Bang!
A meteor shrouded in dark red light burst out of the sea, splashing water everywhere. It streaked across the sky and finally landed on an unknown island in the Mediterranean Sea. Diana's body was surging with hot steam. As her divine power rippled, the water on the surface of her body evaporated, making her look murderous.
She held a sword in her left hand and a shield in her right hand. Standing on the barren land of the island, she stared at the middle-aged man in front of her with hatred. He stood with his hands behind his back and looked at the surging tide.
"Ares! I'm coming! "
"Wait a minute. Before we fight, let me take another look at the tide."
Ares raised his left hand and waved it in the air. He was dressed almost exactly the same as he was during the First World War. He wore an old-fashioned black suit, a cane in his hand, and a top hat on his head. His white hair was neatly combed, and he wore a monocle on his eyes. He looked like a seventeenth-century British aristocrat.
His gray eyes looked at the rising tide of the sea in front of him. The surging water flowed in front of his eyes and formed the figures that he would never forget even after thousands of years. His father, his mother, his brothers and sisters.
Ares tightened his grip on the cane. The next moment, the sea in front of him jumped up and formed a vivid image of the falling Mount Olympus. It was as if the world was burning.
"You were born too long ago. You have never experienced the pain of your home being destroyed and your loved ones being killed," Ares said in a low voice.
Ares said softly, "The war between Atlantis and Paradise Island has made you lose your mind. You are worried about your mother, you are worried about your people, but I … I have lost them. I am obsessed with revenge, but I know that I may not succeed even when my soul is scattered. But as a lonely spirit without a home, other than revenge, what else can I do?"
He turned his head and leaned on his cane with both hands. The sea behind him calmed down with a sigh, as if the tide just now was just an illusion. He looked at Diana in front of him and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Tell me, my sister. If I don't take revenge, what will be left of this soul named Ares?"
"You can at least preserve the bloodline of Mount Olympus!"
Diana was extremely angry. Although in terms of blood relationship, this soul from a thousand years ago was indeed her brother, the paths of the two people were different from the beginning.
"How can you send the last bloodline of Olympus to the battlefield for revenge?"
She looked at Ares, her fingers clenching the hilt of her sword.
"My mother, my clansmen, are they not your clansmen?"
"Then they should stand up and fight back … instead of hiding in the barrier and acting as if nothing happened!"
Ares's eyes turned cold as he said bitterly, "Don't worry.
"100 years ago, you stopped me from taking revenge on the Ancient One. You saved the human civilization from me. You killed my body and forced me to linger on with my remnant soul. At that darkest moment, I really had to give up … Do you know? It was desperate, second only to the collapse of Mount Olympus in the dark … But time, time was on my side in the end. "
He spread out his arms, and the sea behind him began to surge once again. Dark red light surged on his body, and even the light on Diana's body began to shine. It was as if it was calling out to the power that had been separated, yearning to merge the two into one.
"You see, you have half of my divine right. Although you have been suppressing yourself, I can see, Diana, my sister, you also yearn for the battlefield. You also yearn for blood and death. When you are on the battlefield, your mood will be happy, your body will be happy … You can't lie to yourself, and you can't lie to me!"
"Where the war shrouds, the glory of the God of War will be omnipresent …"
The cane in Ares's hand shone in the light and turned into the familiar black war hammer. He swung it gently in his hand, and the war hammer separated and lengthened. The sharp and ferocious spikes protruded outwards, turning the whole war hammer into a heavy weapon about the same height as him. He leaned it on the ground, looked at Diana in front of him, and said softly, "The war hammer is here.
"The War Scepter is right here. With it as a witness, my sister, you should finish what you didn't finish 100 years ago. Either you kill me and completely inherit the Divine Power and become the Queen of the War Gods, or you are killed by me and make my Divine Power complete again … or you can hand it over voluntarily!"
Ares's eyes narrowed.
"You should know that my opponent, my enemy, has never been you. Give me the divine right of war, and I will use it to deal with the real enemy, and I will also end the war under your feet, and let your family and your people return to peace. Isn't that what you came here for?"
"The peace of my people, I will take it myself."
Diana placed the long sword in her hand in front of her. "If I don't have a sword in my hand, how can there be peace?"
"Well said!"
Ares took a step forward, and layers of blue armor covered his body, making his thin body look mighty. When the last horn helmet covered his face, Ares turned into a fully armed steel monster.
Bang!
The ground under his feet shattered, and the seawater flowed backward.
"What a pity, we still have to fight again, but this time, Diana, this time you won't win so easily. This time, you will face the vengeful spirit from Olympus!"
Bang! Bang!
As soon as Ares's war declaration ended, two figures appeared beside Diana, one on the left and one on the right. Saber, who was holding the Evil Lightning Blade, looked at the war hammer in Ares's hand that was shrouded in crimson light, and said in a deep voice,
"Hey, buddy, the thing in your hand … is mine!"
"We won't let a lady face you alone …"
Clark crossed his arms and looked at Ares on the opposite side. Behind him, Barry, who was running at top speed, cut open the surface of the sea. In less than an instant, Clark and Strange, whose face was a little pale, appeared on the battlefield.
"Five against one! Cool! "
Barry whistled, clenched his fist, and aimed at Ares, "This is rare … we have the advantage in numbers!"
"Ares! In Kamar-Taj's Eternal Cage, your place has been empty for too long! "
Strange opened his arms and a golden staff appeared in his hand amidst the golden radiance. He pointed at Ares and said in a deep voice, "Put down your weapon and end the war. Perhaps your imprisonment time can be shortened by just a little!"
"Hehehe, what did I just see?"
Ares wasn't angry, but he wasn't afraid either. He allowed the five of them to surround him from five different directions. His gaze was fixed on Diana and Seiber.
"My sister, who has always insisted on moving forward alone, actually has a new friend … You finally betrayed your false love and threw yourself into the arms of a more reliable man, right? Sure enough … it's a woman's nature. "
"Shut up!"
Diana was so angry that her face turned pale. The stones under her feet were crushed under the pressure. The guy in front of her was too shameless. With just one sentence, he had ruined Diana's reputation. This made this girl, who was actually very conservative, feel an indescribable malice.
"If war depended on talking, you would have been invincible long ago."
Seiber waved the Evil Lightning Blade in his hand, causing the dancing lightning to shine brightly in the dark sky. He looked at Ares and said in a deep voice, "Let's go.
"Bullying girls, you've grown up, haven't you?"
"Saber Hawk, you must have seen my disloyal subordinate … He may have told you a lot, but I'm sure that there's one thing he didn't tell you."
Ares's fingers moved, and a series of black gemstones were smashed on the ground. The gemstones were black as if they had been burned by fire, and they looked like glass shards picked up from the fire. However, when the gemstones smashed on the ground, Strange and Saber's faces changed drastically. The two of them had seen the aura lingering on these black gemstones.
They had a very deep impression of it …
"Come back, spirits of the past, in the name of the same blood, I need your help!"
Ares's voice was accompanied by a red light, and outside the island, it stirred up a huge wave, blocking everyone's escape route. Along with his low voice, colorful lights flashed on the surface of these black gemstones, and finally broke through the space, summoning one after another existence that had disappeared long ago.
"Spirits of the past, for me, for the divine revenge, fight one last time!"
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Seven afterimages flashed in front of the five people, and with their appearance, a mixture of terrifying divine power covered the sky. It was as if Mount Olympus, which had been destroyed in time, had reappeared once again.
A pale green light appeared first, turning into a fog that sealed off the space around Saber. A hooded figure holding a black scythe slowly walked out of the fog. His hazy eyes stared at Saber, and his dreamy voice rang in Saber's ears.
"My name is Hades, King of the Underworld! Answer the summons, the Death Omen has begun to shine! "
"Boom!"
Golden flames exploded in front of Saber, and a slender woman wearing golden armor and holding a long sword and shield walked out of the flames. Holy wings shone on her back, and golden divine power blocked Saber's path like a wall. At the same time, a clear voice rang out.
"My name is Athena, King of Wisdom! Answer the summons, the Flame of Wisdom shall ignite your body! "
"Boom!"
The last thing that appeared was a cloud of dark red flames burning in the sky. A short old man wearing a red hood stood on the cloud with a hammer in his hand. He opened his left hand, and a solid flame jumped in his palm. His voice was hoarse and low, full of majesty that did not match his image.
"My name is Hephaestus, King of Fire! Answer the summons, the Flame of Vengeance shall burn your soul! "
Looking at the three illusory bodies around him, whose faces and armor could not be seen clearly, Saber's face was as dark as water. He had long guessed that Ares must have set a trap for Diana's helpers, but he did not expect that this lonely ghost would be so crazy. He actually summoned the spirits of his elders and siblings, and those black gems must be the remains of these gods after their divine bodies were burned.
Opposite him, two spirits appeared beside Superman Clark, who called themselves Demeter and Apollo. The light shining from their bodies was enough to melt steel, and the green light lingering in their hands was enough to tear the earth apart. Obviously, these two spirits were good at energy attacks, and they were the perfect counter to Superman's body of steel.
Barry and the God of Speed, Hermes, were running along the waves of the sea. The battle between the two of them would always decide the outcome and death in an instant. It was cruel and exciting.
As for Strange, he was facing … the one floating above the sea, holding a trident in his hand, and the one who could summon a tsunami that could destroy a country with a raise of his hand … the Sea King, Poseidon.
"Look, my sister! Diana, look! "
Ares stood among the shadows of the people who had lost their memories, as if he had returned to the time when Mount Olympus was still standing. He shouted in a drunken manner.
"Look, Diana! This used to be our home. Look at their faces, Diana, we are your real family! Tell me, do you really want to go against this great vengeance? Do you really want to … stop me? "
"Your glory belongs to you … whether great or fallen …"
Diana gripped her sword and shield tightly and began to charge at Ares. Her companions were trapped in the siege of the Spirits of the Past, so she was the only one left who could still fight. But she was not afraid. She shouted, "Let's go!"
"Don't … force it on me! I … Diana Prince … I don't need it!!! "
