In a flash of lightning, they appeared on a small island's beach. Endless ocean surrounded them, while dense rainforest covered the island's interior.
The golden beach was like a soft carpet, and the scent of the sea filled every corner of their nostrils. Shadows occasionally shifted within the jungle, and enormous creatures lived on this island.
Barry tossed down the unconscious Wonder Man, perhaps deliberately, leaving him with a mouthful of sand.
"Whew, this is the first time I've realized Diana's uniform doesn't look good on just anyone." Barry frantically shook his head, and the wind rushing through his open mouth made a trilling sound.
Su Ming looked at Bliss waiting beneath a tree, removed his hood, then dragged Wonder Man by one arm toward their prepared hideout.
He had found Circe in the temple on Aiaia. With the miraculous herb Molu and his own martial skill, he had successfully obtained from Circe an item capable of restraining demigods. It had not taken much effort; after the old witch discovered that her sorcery had failed, she obediently agreed to Su Ming's demands.
That Medusa Bracelet looked like a magic item, but it was really just for show. What mattered was the black liquid it secreted: the famed Circe's Venom. It could turn ordinary people into pigs and gods into ordinary people. Unless a professional Mage broke the spell, the process was irreversible.
Once the venom seeped into Wonder Man's skin, he was weaker than an ordinary person. If Su Ming had not dragged him away, he truly feared the damp, salty beach would suffocate him.
"Looks like it went smoothly."
