Diana's Confusion

'Bang'

Blood splattered everywhere as Kevlar exploded in the scorching sunlight; he had been completely blown apart by Diana.

"People like this don't deserve to live!"

Diana was cold-blooded and showed no mercy.

When she first emerged from Amazon, she wasn't yet the Wonder Woman from the comics who had lived among humans for a long time and believed she had no right to take other people's lives.

Diana showed no mercy to the man who could run over a little girl with a tank and killed him on the spot.

Along with several teammates around her, Diana killed them one by one, demonstrating the ferocity of Amazon women.

After cruelly killing them, Diana turned around and gently and tenderly picked up the little girl, comforting her.

The scene where Diana directly beat up Kevlar and killed several members of the organization terrified the little girl. When Diana hugged her, the little girl shrank back in fear, looking at the bloodstains on Diana's white shirt with great apprehension.

Diana comforted the little girl several times before calming her down, but once she calmed down, the little girl started calling for her mother.

"I'm going to take her home."

Diana, holding the little girl, pleaded with Ba Di.

She is still a prisoner of war of Ba Di, and has neither the right nor the ability to make decisions, so she can only plead with Ba Di.

Without Ba Di's permission, she couldn't go anywhere, and she couldn't run away even if she wanted to.

Ba Di glanced at the little girl in Diana's arms, then looked at Diana's resolute face.

Sending them home would be pointless. There are plenty of terrorists in the Middle East; if they're sent home, they'll just get kidnapped again, and the same thing will happen to them.

This can only save them temporarily. In the absence of Diana, their tragic Destiny will repeat itself, without any change.

Diana's thoughts at that moment were focused solely on saving lives, without considering what would happen afterward. For the little girl, it was simply another option: sending her home.

The rest, I didn't think about at all.

"Casual."

Ba Di said he had no objection; his appearance at this time was merely to let Diana see the suffering of humanity and to show her the stable life he could provide for ordinary people.

She should examine her own conscience and reflect on how many ordinary people's peaceful lives her actions disrupted. Was such a struggle against herself really right? Was it worth it? Was she fighting for her own heroism, or for the lives of ordinary people? Regardless of the reason, Diana would ultimately walk the path that Ba Di wanted.

Of course, the most important thing is that the Emperor Tower is being invaded by that group of superhumans. If he doesn't come out, they won't have a chance to get in and will be wiped out by Hera.

"Thanks."

Diana breathed a slight sigh of relief; she was genuinely afraid that Ba Di might insist on leaving the little girl there.

With her current strength, her physical divine power has not yet recovered, and she is also missing all her divine artifacts and equipment, so she has no way to compete with Ba Di.

Thus began the two's journey to the Middle East in search of their mother.

Ba Di floated up into the air.

Diana walked quickly along the scorching hot Naga Highway, heading straight for the nearest town.

She held the little girl tightly, leaping dozens of meters away, splashing out of the sand pit, constantly taking care of the little girl's body and bearing the force, stopping and starting intermittently.

After a few minutes, they arrived at a small village.

Smoke rose from the village, the air thick with the stench of blood and the smell of war.

This is a ransacked village. Terrorists are attacking the village, massacring civilians, kidnapping children and women, and the sound of bullets is incessant.

This place is stained with a cruel, bloody color.

Seeing this scene, Diana was enraged. She put down the little girl and went straight into the battlefield. Her figure was violent, breaking through the air. Her delicate body was like steel, impervious to bullets. Her fists angrily struck the terrorists, killing them one by one who were slaughtering civilians.

Why kill them?

Diana's eyes flashed with confusion as she turned to look at the desolate, blood-stained village.

The village was filled with the mournful cries of anguish; grief and despair enveloped the place.

For the first time, she felt a pang of doubt; these civilians were clearly unarmed and posed no threat.

She truly didn't understand that even with the exceptional wisdom bestowed upon Diana by the goddess Athena, she couldn't comprehend the human tendency to commit suicide and massacres, to brutally kill unarmed civilians and women, and to witness the constant warfare that harms the powerless.

Ba Di floated in the air, not going down, quietly watching.

He brought Diana here so that Diana would have to think about how, without a unified government, humanity would forever be consumed by suicide and slaughter.

Only under his rule, with unification, can this world truly be happy and peaceful.

After all, one villain is enough. It's enough for one person to stand unscrupulously at the top. There's no need for others to do evil.

Diana walked slowly through the village, past the fence, looking at the people who were in pain, numb, and crying. Suddenly, she was at a loss as to what was going on.

Before that, she came from Paradise Island, where there was no suicide or killing, because the Amazon were all one family.

She walked out of the village, picked up the little girl with a heavy heart, and ran and jumped towards the place the little girl had indicated.

She passed through several settlements, where the people were extremely wary of her, some carrying firearms and refusing to let her in.

Some settlements were also engaged in their own wars, some were spreading biological and chemical weapons, people were dying, and women were displaced and became objects of plunder.

This is nothing like a scene from the modern world.

The chaos here was beyond Diana's imagination.

The Middle East is one of the world's most ethnically diverse regions. Narrow nationalism, competition for living space, harsh living conditions, and differences in religious beliefs are all internal factors contributing to the chaos in the Middle East.

This area had a particularly intense and incomprehensible impact on Diana's thinking. As she walked down the street, armed terrorists would try to abduct her and enslave her simply because they glanced at her.

This place is more savage than anywhere else—the savagery of modern civilization.

Finally, after a long journey and several moments of silent contemplation, Diana led the little girl to Canaan, the place the little girl had described.

Ba Di flew down from the sky, his trench coat kicking up dust.

Is this what you wanted me to see?

Diana remained silent, her face showing utter disappointment in humanity.

In the ancient historical records of Paradise Island, humans were not like this.

In ancient times, humans lived happily with the gods, devoutly obeying their will. There was no jealousy, anger, hatred, selfishness, killing... all these negative things. According to the records, that place was perfect.

It's not what she sees now at all.

Diana left Paradise Island, persuaded by Victor and Hal, to protect these wonderful humans! Not because of everything she saw.

All of this made her question life and the world.

"Yes."

Ba Di walked beside her, speaking softly.

Human beings have always been like this, with good and bad, kindness and evil, treachery and loyalty; it's just that Diana was naive and lacked experience.

Diana remained silent, her face thoughtful and sorrowful. She led the little girl through this relatively safe town. Even in this safe town, there were cases of little girls being abducted and used by terrorists for demonstrations.

"An Lu Ya!!"

An Arab woman draped in a white silk dress tightly hugged a little girl, weeping with joy.

"Mother!"

The child, nestled in the woman's arms, cried out loudly for his mother.

Seeing the little girl reunited with her mother, Diana's heavy heart eased, and a long-lost smile of relief appeared on her face.

However, Diana's expression quickly froze.

After thanking him, the woman knelt down before Ba Di and pleaded, "My lord of Ba Miu Luo Di, please take An Lu Ya away and let her become a commoner of Ba Miu Luo Di, so that she can live safely in Ba Miu Luo Di!"

"I'll do anything you ask, just give my daughter a safe future!"

He rescued the little girl, carried her across a battlefield riddled with bullets, and endured the brutal infighting that Diana found unbearable.

But now...

The little girl's mother was about to push her daughter away from her, separating her from her flesh and blood, and handing her over to Ba Miu Luo Di.

Diana was momentarily confused.

Nothing she did could reunite the mother and daughter; the mother even offered her daughter to Ba Miu Luo Di!

Why is that!
