Abandonment
Artemis!
Phillips's expression showed surprise; he hadn't expected that even a female secretary by Ba Miu Luo Di's side would have such fighting power.
The fact that Artemis was injured demonstrates the skill of an elite warrior in both the force and the timing of the attack. Artemis was Mountain-Leaning Strike against the wall by a powerful shoulder strike, coughing up blood.
but.
This level of damage is insufficient to seriously injure the Amazon Warrior; her physical body is not that weak.
Artemis wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand, jumped down from the pit in the wall, and landed on the ground with a 'thud'. Her body was upright, her face was cold and stern, her eyes contained deep anger, her fists were clenched, and her bronze skin showed powerful muscle lines. Her body exuded a strong sense of oppression, like a mountain pressing down on the air, making the air thick and sticky.
If I had another chance, I wouldn't be so easily knocked away.
Artemis, a veteran of countless battles, had only lost her mind in her rage and hadn't noticed Hera's sudden attack, which sent her flying.
To truly defeat her, you'd probably have to break down the entire office.
This is obviously not good enough; this is Ba Di's office.
,
Artemis strode forward, her heavy footsteps cracking the ground and spreading fissures. The viscous air around her seemed to ripple and distort under her pressure. Her furious eyes turned to Hera, who was lying beside Ba Di.
A being of similar strength to himself was utterly devoid of dignity, clinging to Ba Di like a kitten, being petted by him.
Lacking any self-respect or the mindset of a powerful individual, they become mere appendages to men, manipulated and exploited by them.
Artemis frowned. This kind of woman was a disgrace to the world of women.
This is utterly shameful for women! She's even peeling grapes for Ba Di! At this moment, Artemis already sees Hera as an opponent, respects this opponent, and longs to fight her, even if it means dying in battle.
Seeing Hera serving Ba Di with such disrespect, Artemis's eyes blazed with fury, and she wanted to go up again and fight Hera.
"Artemis, stop!"
Antiope raised his hand to stop Artemis's advance, his eyes following her gaze to the screen.
Artemis paused, her heart tightening, and her gaze followed Antiope's as she looked at the screen.
Nuclear bombs are already flying over the shimmering Atlantic Ocean.
This chilled the hearts of the Amazon Warrior.
If the nuclear bomb were to actually explode, Paradise Island would become a thing of the past.
The most important thing now is not anger, but to stop this catastrophe from happening to Amazon.
Artemis was instantly as if she had been drenched in cold light, and she calmed down, no longer letting anger cloud her judgment.
But when his eyes glanced at Hera beside Ba Di, for a fleeting moment, anger and dissatisfaction still lingered in them.
Hera peels skins and removes pits for men, feeding them by hand, being petted like a cat, as lowly as a pet.
They possess power comparable to their own, yet they still become mere vassals.
Seeing Hera, whom he had just recognized as his rival, act in this way.
Artemis was filled with extreme anger and dissatisfaction. It was as if the words were silently saying that she was not worthy to face Ba Miu Luo Di, but only to face his plaything.
Artemis let out a deep growl from her throat, like a wild beast, suppressing her furious rage, and glared at Hera and Ba Di, refraining from any further reckless actions.
However, Antiope, the sister of Amazon Queen Xi Bo Lv Te, did something that shocked them.
Antiope felt a deep sorrow and pain in her heart. Her eyes were filled with complex emotions of anger and resentment. She lowered her head, not daring to let Artemis and Phillips see her pain. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she gritted her teeth, her face filled with grief. Her hands were clenched into fists, trembling as she pressed them against the outside of her thighs, trying to suppress her anger, resentment, and pain.
'Bang!'
Antiope suddenly knelt on the ground, bowed his head humbly, and said in a hoarse voice, "Your Majesty, I am willing to submit and become your soldier, at your beck and call. At the same time, please give me some time, and I will persuade the Amazon warriors to become your unwavering warriors."
She lacked the dignity of an Amazon high-ranking official, the dignity of Amazon Queen and Hippolyta's sister, and the fearless, decisive, and clean-cut resolve of Amazon Warrior.
She was not afraid of death, but the problem now was not one that her death could solve, but rather the survival of the entire Amazon community.
Compared to this, one's own dignity, self-respect, and will are meaningless! What truly matters is the survival of the Amazon people!
She addressed Ba Di as "Your Majesty" again and knelt down.
This is not war.
No honors.
Nothing is worth the death of Amazon warrior.
It was not an honor for the Amazon warriors, but a tragic death, a death without any means of resistance.
The fate of the race, its extinction or its survival, rested on the sole decision of Ba Miu Luo Di, and she had no choice but to kneel before the Amazon warriors.
This kind of death is unacceptable to Amazon, especially for her, the sister of the Amazon Queen and a high-ranking Amazon.
Under no circumstances should we allow the Amazon, the entire race, to perish at our hands.
"Antiope, have you gone mad?"
Artemis's anger instantly turned into shock. She stared at Antiope in disbelief. Could she really submit to this man and become his subordinate? And she even had to persuade the Amazon warriors to become Ba Miu Luo Di's subordinates? Artemis felt as if this was a fantasy, her eyes glazed over in disbelief.
The Amazon warriors, who were fearless in the face of death, were now led by Antiope, showing such fear of life and death, fear at the feet of this man, and a willingness to submit to him! Were these still Amazon warriors? "Antiope! You have betrayed the Amazon!"
Artemis roared in pain and rage; at that moment, she was so shocked and furious that she could not think clearly and calmly.
What Antiope knelt before was the dignity of the Amazon, his own will, and represented the Amazon ' resolute will.
This was unacceptable to Artemis.
'smack'
General Phillips, the Amazon general standing beside her, slapped Artemis across the face, the crisp sound echoing through the room.
Artemis was stunned for a moment after being slapped. The slap was exceptionally heavy, striking Artemis's face with tremendous force.
Phillips, training with calloused hands, pressed his fingers firmly against Artemis's shoulder, digging deep into the flesh.
"She did not betray Amazon!"
Phillips glared angrily at Artemis, his body trembling like an erupting volcano, suppressing his rage as he gritted his teeth and spat out each word.
Artemis did not understand why the crisis facing Amazon had enraged this usually composed general, whose eyes were now blazing like volcanoes.
The instant Antiope knelt down and spoke, Phillips understood Antiope's thoughts.
They are the high-ranking members of Amazon, and their task is to lead their entire community to survival, rather than to die in this meaningless death.
In an era when the gods have abandoned Amazon, Amazon needs to find its own path.
Instead of being destroyed by nuclear bombs and disappearing from this era and history as soon as they appeared on Earth.
Her palm pressed against Artemis's shoulder, the force so strong that Artemis felt pain in her shoulder bone, and her eyes practically blazed with fire.
Artemis looked into Phillips's fiery eyes, at the general who had trained her until he surpassed her, and whom Artemis adored.
Artemis is reckless, impulsive, and hot-tempered, but she is not a fool.
Almost the instant she was slapped, she vaguely realized that she had said the wrong thing.
Artemis's lips moved, but she didn't utter a single word that would break Antiope's heart.
Antiope.
She abandoned her dignity!
