Thor didn't even look at her. He simply picked up a piece of glistening lobster meat with two fingers, slowly put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully, as if he were savoring some unparalleled delicacy.
The sea breeze ruffled the stray hairs on Diana's forehead as she stood there, her head bowed slightly, each second feeling like an eternity.
Finally, Thor swallowed the shrimp, wiped his hands with a napkin, and then looked up.
"I'm not going."
He didn't even turn his head, his voice lazy.
Your heart is not sincere.
Thor turned around, scrutinizing her with an all-knowing indifference. "You know I'm a god. I can tell you're not lying just by looking at you."
Diana's body suddenly stiffened.
That plea for help had exhausted all her restraint, but the other party's response was like a resounding slap across her face.
A surge of intense anger shot from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
The Sword of Hephaestus at her waist emitted a soft hum, as if the divine weapon was sensing its master's fighting spirit.
However, just as she gripped the sword hilt, preparing to cleave this ungrateful bastard in two, images of Themyscira reduced to ashes flashed through her mind, along with the cries of her fellow Amazons groaning under the Parademons.
The grip on his hand finally loosened.
She gritted her teeth again, each word seemingly squeezed out from between them. "I... I'm begging you again, please help me!"
"Oh?" Thor raised an eyebrow, seemingly amused. He stood up, walked slowly to Diana, and circled her as if examining a piece of merchandise.
"Still not right." He shook his finger. "This isn't a request, it's an ultimatum. Every muscle in your body is telling me that if you weren't a match for me, my head would be flying off by now."
He stopped in front of Diana, leaned down, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "This is putting me in a difficult position! Diana, how can you, as a demigod and a superhero, be so impatient?"
Diana's breathing became rapid, and her chest heaved violently.
"What will the common people who love you think of this? You dared to draw your sword against me, which means that at some point you will also dare to draw your sword against the common people."
Thor clicked his tongue twice and shook his head. "Tsk tsk tsk, you're still too green. Even that Boy Scout Clark is better than you in that respect."
"You're asking for it!"
fed up!
Diana's rationality was completely ignited by those words.
She roared, unleashing her pent-up demigod power. Instead of drawing her sword, she swung her fist, infused with divine power, and smashed it toward Thor's face!
This punch is enough to level a mountain.
However, Thor only turned slightly to the side.
Diana's fist whistled through the air as it grazed his nose.
The expected violent impact did not come; instead, an irresistible force came from his ankle.
The next second, the world spun around.
Diana felt a blur before her eyes, and the whole world turned upside down.
"Thump!"
The icy seawater instantly engulfed her head, and the salty liquid rushed into her nasal cavity, causing her to cough violently.
Thor grabbed her ankle with one hand, hung her upside down, and shoved her into the seawater.
He then turned back to look at the dumbfounded Shayera with interest. " Shayera, now's a good opportunity, why don't you give her a beating?"
Shayera's lips twitched, and she shook her head repeatedly.
Are you kidding me?
She had no grudge against Wonder Woman, but because of Thor's actions, Diana must be furious right now.
If she can't beat Thor, surely she can beat herself?
She didn't want to become a punching bag for no reason.
In the seawater, Diana struggled frantically, kicking her legs wildly, trying to break free of her restraints.
But Thor's hand was like an iron clamp, completely still.
After struggling to no avail, her lungs were getting sparser and sparser, and she finally gave up, letting her body hang limply.
Thor felt the pressure on his hands loosen, and then he was satisfied as he lifted her out of the water.
"Splash--"
A soaking wet Diana was thrown onto the deck, her long black hair plastered to her face, her casual clothes already drenched, outlining her graceful and powerful curves.
She lay on the ground coughing violently, spitting out the seawater from her mouth and nose. Then she raised her head, her blue eyes burning with rage as she glared fiercely at Thor.
She had never been treated like this in her entire life!
Thor didn't tolerate her, and slowly said, "If you glare at me again, I won't help you."
Those fiery eyes froze instantly.
Diana stared intently at him, her chest heaving with anger and humiliation.
In the end, she gave in, abruptly turning her head away to look elsewhere, refusing to glance at Thor again.
That's more like it.
Thor nodded in satisfaction.
He turned to Shayera: "Keep an eye on Galatea, don't let her get away."
He had barely finished speaking when he casually waved his hand.
A blinding flash of lightning illuminated his beach shorts and t-shirt, which vanished instantly, replaced by a classic Asgard armor set: silver plates, a black lining, and his signature red cape billowing in the wind.
Immediately afterwards, he extended his right hand, palm up.
"Sizzle--"
The endless electric sparks in the air began to converge and compress, and finally, a silver warhammer flashing with lightning materialized in his palm.
We don't even need the Stormbreaker to fight these guys.
Thor casually swung the hammer in his hand, feeling the familiar power.
The next moment, he bent his knees slightly and shot into the sky like a cannonball!
"Boom--!!!"
With a deafening roar, he shattered the sound barrier, leaving a white ring of air in the azure sky before vanishing from their sight in an instant.
On the ship, Diana and Shayera simultaneously looked up in the direction he had disappeared, remaining silent for a long time.
Meanwhile, the Justice League, Watchtower.
The atmosphere in the command center was extremely tense.
With a flash of white light, Diana, who had just been "taught a lesson" by Thor, was teleported back. Her casual clothes were still soaking wet, but at this moment, no one was in the mood to care about her disheveled state.
Everyone's attention was drawn to the holographic projection in the center.
Superman, Green Lantern, Shazam, Martian Manhunter, Supergirl, Doctor Fate, Zatanna, Batman, and several heroes behind him who are not good at head-on combat... almost all the core and reserve forces of the League have gathered here.
They stared silently at the despairing scene projected on the holographic projection.
Themyscira has completely fallen, and Darkseid's Omega Beams are manipulating the Old Gods.
On Earth, hordes of Parademons have appeared in major cities, and destruction and wailing are the only themes.
Just then, the Watchtower's alarm system suddenly emitted its highest-level siren!
"Warning! Warning! Severe, synchronized weather anomalies detected globally!"
The Martian Manhunter immediately switched to monitoring.
On the huge global projection map, almost simultaneously, from the Eastern Hemisphere to the Western Hemisphere, from the equator to the poles, all regions were covered with red icons representing dark clouds and thunderstorms!
The world was instantly shrouded in dark clouds.
Regardless of whether the sky was clear or the night was still, at this moment, torrential rain began to fall in all regions, accompanied by lightning and thunder. Terrifying thunderstorms descended upon every corner of the earth!
Thick streaks of lightning ripped across the sky, as if to tear the entire heavens apart!
Gazing upon this apocalyptic scene, resembling divine punishment, the entire command hall fell into a deathly silence.
Green Lantern John Stewart instinctively steadied his girlfriend, Vixen, muttering to himself, "Thank goodness... thank goodness we didn't cause him any trouble."
Wally West stared, mouth agape, in awe at the lightning that blanketed the globe.
"This... this is Thor?"
