The Silver Bracelets of Submission, forged by the fire god Hephaestus, were made from fragments of Zeus, king of the Olympian gods, and his divine shield, the Aegis. They automatically attracted all hostile fire, protecting the wearer from stray arrows and bullets, and were impervious to blades and spears, possessing the power of a guardian deity.
David's eyes showed a hint of admiration. As Zeus's daughter, the second-generation goddess Diana was indeed equipped with divine artifacts.
Unable to break free, Diana threw her other fist, but it too was caught.
She gritted her teeth and let out a low growl, unleashing her strength to break free, but she couldn't gain even a slight advantage. Her hands were held as if by iron clamps!
"Let go of the princess."
A tall female warrior with a stern, somewhat rigid face, exuding an air of authority like a decisive female general, leaped from dozens of meters away like a cannonball. Raising her sword high, she charged at David with the momentum to cleave mountains.
With both her hands occupied, David unleashed purple energy beams from his eyes.
Hum!
The intense heat seared the air, and the powerful impact blasted the female general away. She flew out like a kite with a severed string, landing a hundred meters away. Her longsword flew from her grasp, and her chest and abdomen armor was pierced, leaving behind scalded and blackened wounds.
"Antiope!"
Seeing her teacher, who had instructed her in swordsmanship and martial arts since childhood, injured, Diana's face showed anxiety. She forcefully headbutted David's head.
Bang!
A white circular shockwave erupted between their heads.
As if hitting a wall, Diana was sent reeling backward, her head reeling.
Swish!
In the brief moment she was dazed, one of the Silver Bracelets on her arm was removed. David, without even shaking his head, played with it for a moment before casually tossing it away.
The silver bracelet embedded itself into the rock face not far away like a meteor.
With only one bracelet left on her hand, Diana's expression changed.
When the two Silver Bracelets collided, they could unleash power capable of splitting mountains and shattering the earth, making it one of her strongest offensive maneuvers.
But she never expected that before she could use it, one of the silver bracelets would be taken by the enemy.
With a wave of his hand, he sent another wave of charging Amazonian warriors flying, David punched the air, tearing it open, and struck towards Diana's forehead, intending to knock out this most troublesome opponent first.
Diana raised her arm to block. Under the terrifying force, she grunted, her arm feeling as if it had been struck by a hammer.
Whoosh.
A sharp and exquisite longsword was thrown over.
While David was busy swatting the sword away with a wave of his hand, Diana pushed off the ground with her feet, forcefully breaking free from his grip and retreating.
Bang!
Seeing her tribeswomen who had rushed forward being blown away like autumn leaves swept by the wind, and her beloved daughter captured, "Themyscira is protected and watched over by the gods. This is not a place where you can run wild, man!"
Hippolyta threw her longsword to rescue her daughter, leaped down from the hundred-meter-high cliff, her movements agile and powerful. Her face was as cold as ice, and she threw punches at David from various tricky angles.
Unlike Diana, who lacked real combat experience, Hippolyta had fought alongside the gods in the age of the gods, even clashing with extraterrestrial invaders. Her moves were honed in blood and fire, making them almost flawless.
But unfortunately, their physical strengths were not on the same level.
"Where are the gods?"
David treated her like a frail old woman, dodging her attacks a couple of times out of politeness, ignoring the punches that landed on him. He swept her away with a wave of his hand and said with a smile.
"If they are truly watching this scene.
I would be even happier."
But regrettably, Themyscira was clearly not that important. Even though Hippolyta was Zeus's lover and Diana was Zeus's daughter, the gods did not pay constant attention.
He did not detect any emotional points from the Greek gods.
Bang!
"Mother!"
Diana caught her mother, who was sent flying and bleeding from the corner of her mouth. She glared at David, then grabbed the Lasso of Truth at her waist again, holding it tightly with both hands, like a cowgirl in a life-or-death gamble, facing a formidable enemy.
Given this man's power, only the Lasso of Truth might be able to subdue him.
"Kill!"
The Amazonian warriors, like a tide, charged again.
"Your futile attacks should stop now."
David extended his palm and clenched it fiercely.
The air exploded, and a wave of potent energy spread along with the shockwaves!
Centered on David, a spherical energy ripple expanded, sweeping hundreds of meters in an instant. The thousand or so Amazonian warriors who were still able to fight were like mosquitoes swatted away by a monstrous wave, sent flying with a crackle and pop, crashing into the hard rock walls, all knocked unconscious.
Seeing the energy surge approaching, Diana quickly shielded her mother behind her.
Like a typhoon hitting her face, she had to close her eyes. The moment the energy passed, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
Shing!
The less than one-meter gap between them gave Diana, whose eyes had just snapped open and her heart tightened, no chance to throw the Lasso of Truth.
As the fist smashed down, the already injured arm dropped completely, and the Lasso of Truth was snatched away.
Bang!
David unleashed an energy blast, hitting Diana in the abdomen and blasting her away. Before Diana could fly far in pain, he threw the Lasso of Truth.
The divine artifact moved with his will, extending infinitely like a golden lightning bolt, firmly binding Diana in mid-air.
David gave a hard tug, and Diana, like a helpless bird on a leash, was uncontrollably pulled back to his feet, crashing onto the beach in disarray, completely bound by the Lasso of Truth.
"Daughter!"
Seeing her precious daughter captured, Hippolyta's eyes widened in fury, and she rose to throw a punch.
But David raised his hand and fired an energy blast, knocking her unconscious.
On the beach, thousands of tall female warriors lay knocked out.
Under the bright sunlight, David held the rope, one end tied to the downed Diana, and looked up at the sky.
[Template Fusion: 61%]
It was 60% before coming to Themyscira; this one battle alone increased it by 1%.
And this was still the slow and steady new path.
"But the next part is the real focus..."
...
Inside the grand and ancient royal palace of the Amazon tribe, at the center of Themyscira.
At this moment, a man not only appeared on Themyscira, an island that had always been exclusively for women, but was also sitting on the throne belonging only to the Amazon Queen. Below him, a group of Amazon warriors, injured and glaring with rage.
Hippolyta, the Queen of the Amazons, could only stand with her generals and tribespeople below, glaring furiously at the man on the throne, her body trembling with anger, but she dared not take a single step forward.
"You are not convinced?"
David sat on the throne, propping his chin with one hand, looking at everyone below with expressions of humiliation.
It was understandable.
The princess of the Amazon tribe, the Queen's only child, Diana's ebony hair cascaded down, and a fragile look graced her beautiful face.
She was so tightly bound by the Lasso of Truth that she couldn't even sit up straight, only able to lean powerlessly against the other side of the throne, glaring at the invading outsider.
David casually held a gleaming sword in his other hand, the sword belonging to Queen Hippolyta. It was merely placed to block her path away from the throne.
But as long as Diana moved even slightly forward, her body would immediately collide with the blade.
The subtle threat was self-evident.
"What do you want, outsider?"
With her daughter in his hands, and this person being a terrifying entity who had defeated their entire tribe, Hippolyta dared not act rashly, suppressing her rage, she asked.
"Very simple. Submit to me."
"You're delusional! The Amazon tribe can be destroyed, but never conquered!"
The Amazon general Antiope shouted, drawing a chorus of agreement from the Amazon warriors, who glared at David with shared indignation.
But unfortunately, their gazes couldn't kill.
"Is that so?
But as far as I know, has the Amazon tribe ever been conquered by an outsider?"
From the throne, David said unhurriedly.
"How do you know about that?"
Hippolyta's expression changed, her tribe's most humiliating secret past being brought up by an outsider.
