The Scorned One
office.
The vast space was silent, filled with sorrow; a silent grief was spreading.
Anger is worthless.
Anger cannot save Amazon.
Anger can only make your blood boil; it can never change any facts.
Artemis remained silent, her hands clenched tightly, anger mingling with sorrow. She stood behind Antiope with Phillips, watching Antiope's kneeling back, her heart filled with uncontrollable grief and rage.
Amazon has become meat on someone else's chopping block, at their mercy, and even powerless to resist.
silence.
Silence, accompanied by sorrow, enveloped the space.
Ba Di sank into the sofa, with Hera leaning against him. A faint fragrance wafted into his nostrils, and his fingertips moved nimbly, tracing the lighthearted "Croatian Rhapsody" on the waist of Hera's white shirt.
This rhapsody is set against the backdrop of war-torn Croatia, where the setting sun reflects tears and blood amidst the ashes and ruins, using a brisk rhythm to depict a tragic scene.
In the scene about to descend upon Paradise Island, the "Croatian Rhapsody" is undoubtedly exceptionally fitting for all the surroundings: ruins, Amazon warriors suffering from the trauma of war bleeding each other, wails echoing across the land, and despair shrouding the island.
What a tragic scene this is.
Just imagining it is enough to grasp the devastating consequences of a nuclear explosion, a truly heartbreaking situation.
"Your Majesty, please cease the nuclear attack. I, on behalf of Paradise Island, submit."
Antiope trembled with fear. Every time the nuclear bomb flew a certain distance, spewing red and white flames and leaving a white trail across the Atlantic Ocean, her heart trembled with increasing fear as it passed over the shimmering sea.
She couldn't bear the thought that the Amazon might be Destruction in the next moment.
Ba Di's face was indifferent. He also hated seeing such acts of Destruction life and Destruction beauty. Who doesn't like happiness, beauty, and fulfillment? But, as he said...
Without experiencing fear, one cannot know how to yield.
At this moment, the Amazon warriors realized they had to surrender. Wasn't it too late?
It turns out I'm too kind; my reputation isn't enough to instill fear in people to the point of bowing down in worship. That's why, time and again, the Flash has harbored a sense of complacency and won't kneel for the lives of tens of millions of people in New Guinea.
The Justice League members keep messing things up for themselves.
Amazon believed she was able to resist herself.
"Only if Amazon survives this nuclear bomb will it be qualified to be my warriors."
Ba Di's face was cold and indifferent as he spoke.
His fingers were still lightly touching Hera's waist, her smooth skin faintly visible through her white shirt.
"No, Your Majesty, we obey you as our master. Please forgive our disobedience just now. The Amazon will become the sword in your hand!"
Phillips, looking tense, stepped forward and knelt down beside Antiope, speaking hastily.
"I am the general of Paradise Island, Your Ba Miu Luo Di, and I am willing to dedicate my loyalty to you."
Phillips said, his heart pounding with anxiety and his body trembling.
She could no longer imagine the Destruction of Paradise Island and the Amazon.
Such consequences are unbearable.
If, because of their pride, they did not kneel down and beg the man before them at this moment, and this led to the extinction of the Amazon tribe and them becoming the last Amazons, it would be unimaginable how painful that would be in the future.
Ba Di's face was indifferent and emotionless; by this moment, his good mood had vanished.
Others' pleas do not bring him pleasure; on the contrary, they evoke a sense of sorrow in him.
It's true... they won't shed a tear until they see the coffin.
Without experiencing fear, one cannot know how to yield.
Ba Di stopped his fingers on Hera's waist, the Croatian Rhapsody stopped, his eyes were indifferent, and his seated figure was like a giant perched on a mountaintop, looking down at the two kneeling people.
Artemis stood frozen in place, stunned.
The will of Amazon Warrior is so strong that it is an incredibly difficult task to make Amazon Warrior submit.
They would rather die fighting than submit to others like this.
Her brain had shut down.
There was no shame in my mind to kneel down before them and submit to Ba Di.
on the contrary.
They are so great that the entire Paradise Island and the Amazon cannot understand them.
They would only curse them as Ba Miu Luo Di's lackeys, and upon seeing them, they would throw rotten eggs and tomatoes at them and spit on them. They are destined to become infamous figures in the history of the Amazon.
They are... Amazon traitors.
However, it was they who... were able to save the Amazon and prevent Paradise Island from becoming history.
Artemis suddenly came to her senses.
'boom...'
She took a step forward and suddenly knelt down on the ground, causing cracks to spread from the ground to Ba Di's feet.
Artemis's gaze was resolute, her face firm, and she spoke with unwavering conviction.
"Your Majesty, I, Artemis, am willing to submit to you and beg you to grant the Amazon a way to live."
"From this day forward, I forsake the gods!"
"From now on, your will will be the direction I will follow."
"From this day forward, your gaze will be the target of my sword."
"From this day forward, your soul will be my unwavering faith for the rest of my life."
"I am willing to spend my life as your sword, your blade, your vanguard, to open up new territories for you and build your God Kingdom."
Artemis knelt down, her head touching the ground, the cold touch on her forehead.
A silent tragedy resolutely spread throughout this space.
This is more moving and tragic than any battle or fierce fighting.
This was a brutal battle of surrender.
The devastation was so intense that there was no smoke, no gunpowder, and no war.
This space is tearing the hearts of the Amazon apart.
Ba Di was like a god perched high above the clouds, looking down at the three of them with a cold and indifferent gaze. His face was as sculpted as a rock, ruthless and hard.
At this time.
Suddenly, a blinding light burst forth on the screen, the glaring white light shining on the faces of the three kneeling Amazon warriors.
A nuclear bomb exploded high in the Amazon rainforest, and a fierce wind swept across the forests of Paradise Island. Animals and birds scattered in terror, and the magnificent buildings below were weakened by the wind like never before.
The Amazons shielded their eyes from the blinding light from the sky, then erupted in a triumphant and confident cheer; no one could easily harm the Amazon.
The nuclear bomb did not fall on Paradise Island; instead, it exploded high in the sky, creating a burst of flames.
Phillips and Antiope breathed a sigh of relief, but as they looked at the Amazon on the screen, who were confidently and proudly looking up at the sky, they felt a pang of sadness in their hearts.
Artemis's face was resolute, and she remained silent.
