Chapter 396 Bialya
As a Transmigrant, Yang Le wouldn't dare call himself a Hardcore American Comics Reader, but he was still very familiar with well-known Characters like Constantine. He naturally knew that eight out of ten of Constantine's words couldn't be trusted, and anything related to him required extreme caution.
So, when signing a Contract with the other party, how could Yang Le be foolish enough not to take precautions? From the beginning, Yang Le's intention was to freeload off Constantine. At that time, Yang Le already had a Plan in mind.
However, Yang Le was not clear about what Magic Constantine would use to sign the Contract, so he didn't have a 100% Confidence in the implementation of his Plan. Unexpectedly, Constantine used a simple Contract for the sake of showing off.
This Undoubtedly made things easier for Yang Le, because the Method he came up with to not fulfill the Contract was also very simple. That was to transfer the Contract signed on his hand away, which was the old Method of transferring this Contract to the Dimensional Demon God Clone located in the Marvel Universe.
Although it was called a Clone, it was actually the same person. Precisely because of this, Yang Le's act of transferring the Contract was not discovered by Constantine, and Constantine could not have guarded against it. Therefore, Constantine lost to what should actually be the Omnitrix.
After that, it was even simpler. Under normal circumstances, the Power of the Marvel and DC Universe are not interlinked, just like the Speed Force. Yang Le therefore guessed that as long as the Contract was transferred to the Marvel Universe, the Contract would definitely become invalid.
The reality was exactly as Yang Le thought. Constantine wanted to use a Contract from the DC Universe to restrain Yang Le in the Marvel Universe, Undoubtedly wanting to use the sword of the previous dynasty to behead the Official of the current dynasty. It was simply impossible.
This could also be considered a Lesson for that forty-something-year-old man who still harbored ulterior motives towards Zatanna, who was two rounds younger than him. As for whether Constantine would die, Yang Le was not worried at all. It was impossible to kill a Demon of that Level. At most, it would just give him a headache.
After all, he was renting a House. Messing around like this, Constantine's Deposit would definitely not be returned. It was even possible that he would be Wanted by the Police after running away because he couldn't afford to pay for repairing the House. Just thinking about it made Yang Le want to laugh.
However, next time he came into contact with Constantine, he would have to be more careful. He would definitely try to get back the Respect he had lost. He was not a magnanimous person.
But those were all things for later. Right now, there was a big Problem waiting for him to solve.
Putting the miscellaneous thoughts behind him, Yang Le discovered that in the short Time he was thinking, Wonder Woman had not only sent Zatanna Home but had even led him to their Destination. Yang Le suddenly realized that he was becoming more and more accustomed to holding hands with Diana.
"If Constantine wasn't mistaken, then we should have arrived," Wonder Woman said slowly as she descended, still holding Yang Le's hand.
"Where is this?" Yang Le asked, looking at the unfamiliar Environment in front of him. Without careful observation, even the Vision of the Asgardian Gods could only see an endless Desert.
"Bialya." Wonder Woman slowly said a Name. "A Nation under Dictatorial Rule. The President's Name is Luman Hawati. This person was a well-known good Official before he came to Power, but after being elected President, he seemed to have become a different person, becoming arbitrary and autocratic."
"Although the outside world believes that his behavior before being elected President was just Luman's Disguise, and that the current dictator is his true self, the Justice League suspects that Luman is just a Puppet President, and that there is a Mastermind behind him who is the one truly ruling this Nation."
Wonder Woman took out the Parchment again, unfolded it, and said, "The Location Constantine gave is just ahead, but not far from there is also a Bialya Military Base. In order not to cause unnecessary panic, it's best for the two of us to proceed on foot."
Yang Le had no Opinion on this. Although Flight was indeed faster, both of them were Superhuman. Even if they didn't run at full Power, they would still surpass most Transportation Tool on the Ground. Moreover, the Destination was indeed not far, and walking might only be a few minutes slower than flying.
Under Wonder Woman's lead, the two of them walked for about five minutes and arrived at the Location marked on the Parchment. As soon as Wonder Woman's feet were planted, the Parchment in her hand burst into green Flame, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a wisp of Smoke and disappeared without a trace.
"It seems that Demon is indeed cautious." Wonder Woman immediately understood. "We just arrived at the Destination and it's already impatiently destroying the Evidence."
"Circe is a Witch who has survived from the Age of Gods until now. She is indeed not someone a small Demon can afford to provoke." Yang Le looked around. This place was no different from where he and Wonder Woman had just landed. It was still an endless Desert, and there wasn't even a Building within a few kilometers.
"Step back a bit, Diana. With the Contract, the Demon won't lie. So, in the current situation, there are only two possibilities." Yang Le moved his Shoulders, looking eager to try.
"First, the Demon did not find Circe's true Position. Second, Circe is now hiding in a place that is not on the Ground. It may be on the Ground, or it may be... Underground!"
The word "Underground" had just left his mouth when Yang Le swung out his fully charged Right Fist, his Goal being right Underfoot. The enormous Power stirred up Sand all over the sky, just like setting off a Desert Tornado.
When the Fist made contact with the Ground, the commotion was even greater. It was as if the sky was falling and the earth was cracking, like an Atomic Bomb detonating in the Gobi Desert. Sand filled the sky, blocking out the sun. It took a while for the Sand to resettle and for everything to calm down.
When everything was Peaceful, the Position where Yang Le was standing was already sunken down a large chunk compared to the Ground. The surrounding Sand had been crystallized by the high temperature of his Lightning, so no more Sand would slide down. Yang Le half-squatted on the Ground. Under his feet was no longer Sand and Soil, but a flat Metal Block.
"Whoosh!" Wonder Woman pulled herself out of the Sand, stepping on Glass and sliding to Yang Le's front. Although she had followed Yang Le's Words and dodged, the commotion caused by the other party was too great. She was still caught in it, but this bit of Sandstorm was nothing to her.
"Want to make a bet?" Yang Le said to Wonder Woman in front of him. "I bet Circe and the others are right underneath here."
"If I choose the same as you, wouldn't the bet be invalid?" Diana rolled her eyes at Yang Le, looking at the Metal Block that was only dented after being punched by Yang Le. Although there were tens of meters of Sand as a buffer, this already showed the hardness of this Metal plate. This was definitely not Technology that a Nation like Bialya could possess. Unexpectedly, this Dictatorial Rule Nation was far from as simple as the Justice League thought.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 397 Troy and Diana
Yang Le raised his right hand again, preparing to punch the metal plate underfoot one more time to break it, but Wonder Woman stopped him.
"You're making too much noise." Diana drew her sword. "Let me handle it."
Yang Le shrugged and honestly stepped aside. Facing the Sword of Hephaestus, which could cut subatomic particles, his fist was indeed somewhat inadequate. It was better to obediently step back at this point.
Diana was just about to extend her sword above the metal plate to cut it when they heard a rumbling sound. Both of them looked up, but because they were in a low position, even though their line of sight far exceeded that of an ordinary person, they couldn't see anything.
But whatever was making the noise didn't keep them waiting long. In less than a minute, they saw a group of soldiers wearing unknown military uniforms appear above the pit that Yang Le had created.
"They're Byalia soldiers," Diana explained to Yang Le beside her. "It seems the noise you made earlier was too loud and attracted them."
"My fault," Yang Le honestly admitted. Just now, his brain had gotten heated and he hadn't thought about the consequences at all. Diana had clearly mentioned before that there was a military base nearby, yet he still made such a big commotion.
"So what do we do now? Negotiate or force our way through?"
"Of course, we negotiate. There's no reason for these ordinary people to bear the consequences of my fight with Circe." Diana sheathed her sword and called out loudly to the surrounding soldiers.
"Soldiers of Byalia, I apologize for not only arriving uninvited but also causing damage to your nation. However, there is a reason for all of this. I am Diana, Princess of the Amazon, Wonder Woman. I am searching for my mother's killer, and I received news that she is beneath this ground. Please do not stop me."
"Respected Wonder Woman," a character who was dressed differently from the ordinary soldiers, clearly a commander of some kind, stepped forward and said to Wonder Woman.
"We are saddened by your unfortunate situation, but Your Excellency is currently standing on our Byalia military building, which is a state secret. No one is allowed to enter without the President's permission, so we can only reluctantly refuse your request."
"I am merely notifying you, not seeking your agreement," Wonder Woman said, drawing her sword again. "If I do not find my enemy beneath here, I will apologize for this. But if I do find my enemy within Byalia's military building, then I hope Byalia can give me a reasonable explanation."
To reiterate, Diana, before being a superhero, is first and foremost a warrior, and moreover, a warrior cultivated by the Amazonians. Diana, who grew up in that kind of environment, being able to politely inform the Byalia soldiers, who might be harboring her mother's killer, of the situation's details is already considered very polite.
Yang Le thought that it wasn't impossible for Diana to completely ignore these ordinary people. In the infinite DC Universe, the vast majority of Wonder Women are quite impatient. For example, the Diana from the "Injustice League" Universe or the "Flashpoint" Universe, those are paradigms of impatience. Killing someone over a disagreement is not impossible.
The Diana in front of Yang Le could really be considered one of the few exceptions.
"Since Your Excellency insists on this, then we can only counterattack." As soon as the commander finished speaking, the soldiers surrounding the pit had already aimed their guns at the two of them. They were mostly ordinary guns, which was consistent with Byalia's poor identity.
Seeing this, Yang Le decided to transform into **Gutrot**, preparing to use sleeping gas to make these soldiers dizzy. After all, they could only be considered innocent passersby, and they also had to protect the nation of Byalia. There was no need to use electricity to damage their bodies.
But before Yang Le could transform, a sound came from underfoot of him and Wonder Woman. Seeing this, the two of them didn't linger and flew away from the pit one after another.
Just as their feet left the ground, the metal plate underfoot of Wonder Woman suddenly broke open a big hole. A black shadow rushed out from it, heading straight for Diana in mid-air.
Yang Le looked closely and discovered it was Troy, who had left with Circe. However, Troy's appearance had greatly changed at this time. She was no longer just wearing a thin robe; a set of armor now encased her graceful body.
Not only that, Troy's right hand was also holding a sword, and her left hand carried a round shield. Combined with her somewhat similar appearance to Diana, she looked like another Wonder Woman.
Diana also clearly saw Troy rushing to attack her. Facing this girl formed from her own mother's remains, she was momentarily dazed. It wasn't until the sword was almost about to stab her that Diana reacted and used the shield in her hand to block.
This was Diana's first time fighting Troy. Her left hand holding the shield trembled slightly. Diana was somewhat surprised by the girl's strength, which had unexpectedly numbed her hastily raised left hand in defense. She knew that only someone of Superman's level could do something like this.
Steadying her heart, Diana placed her right hand on her left hand. To create distance, she exerted force with both hands simultaneously, sending Troy flying back.
Facing the incoming great strength, Troy didn't choose to clash head-on. Following the force, she retreated, flipped in the air, and landed on the ground. Even the sand covering the ground couldn't affect her balance.
Using this time, Diana had also landed. They had only exchanged blows for one round, but had already flown several hundred meters away, far from the Byalia soldier's encirclement.
Yang Le landed beside Diana. At this time, he didn't know if he should help or not. The relationship between these two was too complex. It would be better to find Witch Circe's position; fighting her would be less complicated.
Without Yang Le needing to search, Circe walked out from a purple portal. Just like Yang Le, she stood beside Troy, smilingly looking at Yang Le and Diana.
"Circe!" Enemies meeting are especially enraged. As soon as Diana saw her mother's killer appear, she raised her sword, wanting to behead her to appease her mother's spirit in Heaven.
Unfortunately, the person blocking her was none other than her mother. Troy flashed and stood in front of Circe, blocking Diana's charge on the inevitable path. Helplessly, Diana had to stop.
"Get out of the way," Diana called out loudly to Troy. At this time, she felt a kind of helplessness, having strength but nowhere to exert it. If possible, she really didn't want to damage Troy.
Diana still held a trace of hope in her heart. After all, who knew if the girl could still transform back into her mother? What if she injured the girl and prevented her from transforming back?
"If you want to damage my mother, then step over my corpse," Troy said, raising her sword and looking alertly at Diana.

Chapter 398 Lost Amazon Tribe
"She is not your mother!"
Diana's eyes were about to split apart when she heard Troy's address to Circe. Her feelings for Troy were complicated, so Diana wouldn't allow the latter to humiliate her in this way.
"Don't be so agitated, little Amazon Princess." Circe swayed her body slightly, walking towards Troy with graceful charm, and said with a smile to the Amazon Princess who was furious.
"My darling daughter has Serious Business to discuss with you, why not listen first."
Diana didn't reply, but seeing that she didn't take further action, she seemed to have agreed to Circe's suggestion.
"I want to challenge you!" Troy pointed the Sword in her hand directly at Diana. "Amazonian Tradition, I want to take the title of Wonder Woman from your hands."
Wonder Woman, this title was not given to Diana by Humans, it is an ancient title almost as old as Paradise Island. Every once in a while.
The Amazonians on Paradise Island would select a Warrior with outstanding ability and send her out of the Island to save the world and promote great love, etc.
This is equivalent to a Position, and relying on the Amazons' fine Tradition of martial valor, if someone feels that the current Wonder Woman no longer fulfills her Duty, they can Challenge her.
And Wonder Woman generally cannot refuse a Challenge. Avoiding battle is mostly seen as a cowardly act by the Amazons. The most outstanding Wonder Woman naturally cannot make such a Choice.
Of course, the premise is that the Challenger is an Amazonian. Wonder Woman is a glorious title, not something anyone can touch.
But Troy's Identity is very special. Logically speaking, she is not a true Amazonian, but her predecessor was the Amazon Queen.
Moreover, Diana saw the process of Troy's birth with Clock King's Ability. The other party's birth process was even the same as the oldest Amazonians.
If you really want to investigate, the other party's Amazonian Identity may be more authentic than her own, a genuine, old-school Amazonian, truly amazing.
If it were in the past, Diana would definitely not refuse. She never avoided battle, but facing Troy with her complex Identity, she felt a sense of retreat for the first time.
Even when facing the invincible Darkseid, she had never had such an Idea.
"It seems the little Princess is a bit hesitant."
Circe leaned her Body against Troy, and the latter let her do whatever she wanted, even freeing up a Hand to support her.
"How about this." Circe clapped her Palm, like a candidate who suddenly thought of the Answer.
"Open the Amazon Council and let all the Amazons express their Opinion to see if our Troy is Qualified to Challenge Wonder Woman."
"Don't agree to her request, Diana." Yang Le put his Hand on Diana's Shoulder. "Although I don't know what Conspiracy she has, but looking at her Expression, I know she is definitely ill-intentioned."
"You saying that really hurts my Heart, Sweetheart." Circe pretentiously placed her Right Hand on her Heart, as if Yang Le had done something unforgivable.
Yang Le ignored Circe's affected posture, his Eyes fixed on Diana, whose Expression was uncertain, waiting for her Response.
After pondering for a moment, Diana said in a deep voice: "I agree to your request."
Unlike Circe, whose Corner of Mouth turned upwards, Yang Le suddenly had the Idea that his Teammate was hopeless. Diana seemed to sense Yang Le's Idea and turned her head to Explain.
"Yang Le, I know you are worried that I will fall into Circe's Conspiracy, but I know that if I don't agree to Circe's request here, she will also secretly land on Paradise Island. Instead, she is very likely to catch us off guard. It's better to let her come to the Island openly and honestly under my surveillance, so that my Amazonian Sisters and I will definitely be able to stop her Conspiracy."
Looking at Diana who was so confident, Yang Le couldn't help but want to dampen her enthusiasm. The last one who was so full of confidence was already split in two. Boomerang will always return to your side when you least expect it.
But no matter how Yang Le tried to persuade her afterwards, Diana only used one sentence to Reply to him, and that was: Amazonian Honor does not allow her to refuse.
Diana firmly believed that all her Amazonian Sisters would stand by her side, because they were all Warriors, they had lived together since childhood, and they had no Reason to betray her.
In fact, as Diana thought, after they returned to Paradise Island, the arrival of Witch Circe and Troy did cause an uproar. After she made everything public, the Amazons were even more furious.
Of course, this Anger was directed at Witch Circe. This vicious Witch not only killed their Queen, but even desecrated her Corpse and Soul. This was intolerable to any Amazonian. This was a Provocation to them. They raised the Weapons in their Hands one after another and aimed them at Circe, wanting to cut her into Thousand Cuts.
But facing such a dangerous situation, Circe, who obviously only had Troy as a guard, did not show any panic, but instead showed an Expression of being completely confident of victory.
Acting Queen Antiope frowned, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in her Heart. She hurriedly waved her Right Hand and ordered.
"Take them both down!"
Diana took the lead. Although they had the advantage in numbers, Circe's Magic was also not to be underestimated. Here, she was the only Demigod Body who could ignore her Magic. She naturally had to take the lead and resist Magic for her Amazonian Sisters.
But to Diana's Surprise, Circe did not cast Magic, did not raise her Hand, but just looked at Diana who was rushing towards her with a smile, and even pulled Troy who was preparing to meet the attack.
"Don't worry, my Sweetheart." Circe hugged Troy's arm. "Our helpers have arrived."
'Helpers?' Diana was puzzled.
Suddenly, her peripheral vision noticed a few black shadows darting out from the woods and standing in front of Circe and Troy.
With Superman's dynamic Strength, she immediately saw the newcomers clearly, and couldn't help but stop in Shock.
It's no wonder Diana was Shocked, because the newcomers were also Amazons, but the style of Armor they wore was different from what she was familiar with, but Diana also recognized them, because they came from another Tribe—the Lost Amazon Tribe.
Antiope also discovered the Lost Amazon Tribe, her Brow furrowed even deeper, and she couldn't help but complain in her Heart: 'Why did the Lost Tribe come here?'
Circe swaggered out of the Protection of the Lost Amazons, spread her Hands and shouted to Diana and the Amazons
"Welcome my new Allies, the arrival of the Lost Amazon Tribe, next the Amazon Council will officially begin!"
(End of chapter)
Chapter 399 Wonder Woman Title Duel and Expected Date of Childbirth
Before the crowd could recover from Circe's speech, more Lost Amazonians emerged from the woods in groups, and gradually, Circe and Troy's side became able to contend with Diana's side.
An Amazonian wearing magnificent armor stood beside Circe, surrounded by people. Judging by the attitude shown towards her, this person should be the leader of the Lost Amazonians.
"Nephthys, why are you standing on the side of the Amazons' enemies?" Antiope walked through the human wall formed by warriors and questioned the Amazonian wearing magnificent armor.
"Those words should be for me to ask you, Antiope." Nephthys proudly raised her head and questioned Antiope in return. "Why did you damage the princess of our Lost Amazon tribe?"
Nephthys's words surprised not only Diana and the Amazons, but even Troy. Troy couldn't help but turn her head to look at Circe, her nominal mother.
Circe just gave her a gesture, signaling her to be patient. Seeing this, Troy could only suppress her curiosity, stand silently in the original place, and wait for her mother's arrangements.
"What do you mean by those words, Nephthys?"
"The literal meaning." Nephthys pointed her hand towards Troy beside her. "This Troy is precisely the princess of our clan."
"Nonsense." Diana was furious and took a few steps forward, wanting to directly question Nephthys, but she was stopped by the warriors of the Lost Clan. Diana didn't want to escalate the situation and had to stop.
"Troy was created by Witch Circe using my mother's corpse and has no relationship with your clan."
"That's just your side of the story." Nephthys waved her hand dismissively. "Troy grew up in front of everyone in our clan. These memories are not something your one-sided words can compare to."
Diana was anxious and thought of Yang Le immediately, wanting to use Clock King's ability to reveal the truth to the public. When she turned back to look for Yang Le's figure, she remembered that Yang Le had left because of sudden business.
As for what business it was, Yang Le didn't elaborate. Diana only knew that in order to safely board Paradise Island, Yang Le chose to transform into a blue, insect-like form, and then, when he was still fine, he said he had urgent business and left.
Although Yang Le's appearance was a bit strange at the time, Diana, who was also entangled in a lot of business and couldn't understand the facial expressions of an insect, didn't delve into it. After saying goodbye to him, she took Circe and Troy to Paradise Island.
At the same time, she didn't see Yang Le leaving in a hurry.
Now that she thought about it, Diana couldn't help but feel guilt. However, being burdened with many businesses, she really had no energy left. Now that things had become even more trouble, otherwise she would really want to apologize to Yang Le properly.
Just as Diana was distracted, the queens of the two clans had already discussed a result.
Antiope asked, "What exactly do you want to do, Nephthys?"
She knew that Nephthys had brought her subordinate out of the tribe with great fanfare, certainly not to start a war with her. She must have a purpose, and she had actually guessed a bit of this purpose.
"What else could it be for?" Nephthys pulled Troy to her side. "Of course, it's to support our clan's princess in contending for the Wonder Woman title. Antiope, you need to know that although our clan hasn't participated in the Wonder Woman title contention for a long time, we also have this right."
'As expected.' Antiope frowned. In her opinion, the Lost Clan must have reached some agreement with Witch Circe. Circe promised the Lost Clan some benefit, and the price was that the Lost Clan must fully support Troy.
This was a good move, Antiope had to admit. With the endorsement of the Lost Clan, Troy's Amazonian identity would be confirmed. Even if Diana could produce evidence, the Lost Clan could still stubbornly refuse to admit it. At worst, they could grant Troy the Honorary Amazonian identity.
Honorary Amazonian is a special identity that Amazon grants to women from the outside world. Honorary Amazonians enjoy the same rights as normal Amazons. Matters like contending for the Wonder Woman title can naturally also be participated in.
Antiope sighed inwardly. Now, arguing about Troy's identity was already meaningless. The battle between Diana and Troy was almost inevitable. The only way to avoid it was for one of them to avoid battle and abstain.
But thinking about it, it was impossible. First of all, looking at Troy's appearance, one knew she would not abstain. And if Diana abstained, her Wonder Woman title would exist in name only. Under equal conditions for both sides, if the current Wonder Woman avoided battle, it generally meant directly admitting defeat, and the title would naturally be revoked.
Diana could not possibly do that no matter what. This poor child, it seemed, could not escape the fight with her own mother.
Everyone focused their line of sight on Diana, this pride of Paradise Island who was loved by the Gods and the focus of all attention, nodded in full view of everyone.
"I accept your challenge."
Those words were spoken resolutely, but with a hint of sadness.
…
Surrounded by the two clans, Diana and Troy arrived at an arena. This was a place where Amazons usually trained or had fun. For them, competition was always the best game, so this was also one of the most sacred places on Paradise Island.
At this time, Diana and Troy had already removed their divine weapons. They were wearing only ordinary Amazonian armor, and the armbands on their hands had also been replaced with ordinary goods.
As for weapons, they were placed around the arena. They were all standard Amazonian weapons, sharp but certainly not comparable to their respective equipment.
This was also an old tradition, because after Wonder Woman succeeded to the title, even if she didn't have treasures bestowed by the Gods, the Amazons would gift her the divine weapon they had accumulated. Therefore, the equipment of successive Wonder Women was stronger than that of ordinary Amazons.
If Wonder Woman used these weapons to fight, it would definitely be unfair to ordinary people. Therefore, whenever she received a challenge, Wonder Woman had to use ordinary equipment. This was a rule passed down from ancient times.
And although Diana and Troy both had divine weapons, no one could guarantee that their weapons were absolutely equal. Therefore, they naturally had to abide by this rule as well.
Looking at the enemy in front of them, Diana and Troy had two completely different reactions.
Diana's hesitation and Troy's eagerness to try formed a sharp contrast. Although Diana's inner heart tried hard to calm down, she was still in confusion. She increasingly felt that she needed someone to confide in, but that person had temporarily left due to business.
And if Diana knew that the person she was thinking of was currently foraging for food in order to give birth to a little baby, she didn't know what she would think.
(End of Chapter)
Chapter 400: Big Chill Entering Spawning Season
When the coup happened on Paradise Island, Yang Le was not idle either; on the contrary, he was very busy.
When Yang Le initially prepared to return to Paradise Island, the reason he didn't choose to transform into an Amazonian was that Yang Le in Amazonian form didn't have flight ability. So, to avoid some trouble, Yang Le chose the hermaphrodite Necrofriggian.
Originally, this choice was excellent. Even among those more bug alien heroes, relying on Big Chill's strength, he could be top-notch. After all, intangibility is truly overpowered.
However, Yang Le overlooked one point, which caused this good choice to become the worst choice. Big Chill's race, Necrofriggian, generally spawns eggs about once every eighty years, and Yang Le's transformation happened to coincide with Big Chill's spawning season.
After Big Chill enters spawning season, the thought of the Omnitrix wearer will be occupied by Necrofriggian's physiological thought, just like a mother beast in the natural world, desperately trying to produce the child in its belly.
Even Yang Le was no exception. Therefore, after Yang Le transformed into Big Chill, he could only notify Diana before losing sanity. After that, he couldn't control himself.
Necrofriggians, like normal creatures, need to eat a large amount of food before producing to ensure that nutrition can be produced smoothly. It's just that the things they eat are fiercer than general creatures.
Their staple food is all kinds of metal. After entering spawning season, Necrofriggians' appetite is far greater than usual. At this time, they need a large amount of metal to replenish nutrition. And near the place where Yang Le is now, there happens to be a place with a large amount of metal, which is the Bialya Military Base.
…
Inside the Bialya Military Base, the troops that had just besieged Yang Le and Diana had just withdrawn. The commander leading these troops couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. When he received the order from above to stop Wonder Woman and her partner, he thought he had misheard.
"Me, fight Wonder Woman? Seriously?"
Although he was a million times unwilling in his heart, he dared not disobey the order of the dictatorial president. You know, facing a super hero, even facing Wonder Woman, who is known for her decisiveness in killing, he might still have a glimmer of hope even if he opened fire. But if he dared to refuse the order from above, his whole family would definitely be shot in the back and commit suicide together.
In this society where a good person should be pointed at with guns, the commander only hesitated for a few seconds before ordering the soldiers to move out. Although there were some twists and turns, in general, it was as he thought. Wonder Woman and her partner did not cause damage to them.
It was also fortunate that they didn't really fight. If they had, these ordinary people rushing up would only serve as cannon fodder. Unless the big shots in the base took action, even if they brought out all the tanks, they wouldn't be able to take down Wonder Woman.
While thinking, the commander prepared to report to his superiors. This time their mission could be considered excellently completed. He hoped the leader could give him some rewards, preferably a promotion, so he wouldn't have to be on tenterhooks here.
Just as the commander was looking forward to a bright future, the tall metal gates of the military base made some strange noises. First, there was a squeaking sound like fingernails scratching a blackboard, and then there was a crunching sound like a hydraulic press crushing metal, making people get goosebumps.
Under the influence of this strange sound, even without giving orders, the soldiers had already assumed a combat form. Facing the excellent qualities of his subordinates, the commander couldn't help but nod, and he raised his voice.
"Get ready for combat. Once the enemy cuts open the gate, launch an attack."
Obviously, the commander took those sounds as the enemy cutting open the metal gate. Under normal circumstances, it was understandable for him to think so, but the scene he was about to see would make him remember it for a lifetime.
"Creak!"
A teeth-grinding sound of metal tearing came, and a hole about the size of a face appeared. The soldiers in the base only saw a mouthparts with a black appearance, and pale blue teeth inside. The soldiers in the front row could even see the metal debris chewed into fragments inside the mouthparts.
"Oh my God."
Some soldiers couldn't help but sigh. The hole that was originally the size of a face became larger and larger. Gradually, the soldiers were finally able to see the true identity of the culprit.
It was a blue humanoid bug, about the size of a normal adult human, but its body was slimmer. But it was this slender body that was tearing down the metal blast door made by modern industry piece by piece and sending it to its mouth.
"What are you still stunned for! Open fire!" The commander was indeed extraordinary. He was the first to react and loudly ordered his subordinates to launch an attack. This roar from the ground was like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, calling back the soldiers' minds.
"Bang bang bang!"
Bullets poured down on Big Chill like a torrential rain. If Yang Le's sanity was still there, even if he wasn't afraid of these bullets, he would use intangibility to dodge. After all, even if it didn't hurt, so many bullets hitting his body would still be numb and itchy.
Unfortunately, Big Chill, who had entered spawning season, didn't think so. He was currently holding the gate and gnawing happily, completely ignoring the bullets fired at him. However, Big Chill was not an idiot either. The wings on his body were the best bulletproof vest.
Turning his wings into a cloak and draping it over his body, rain-like bullets continuously hit Big Chill's body. The bullets fell on the ground or bounced away with a crackling sound, but they couldn't cause even a bit of impact on Big Chill.
By the time the soldiers finished firing a whole magazine, Big Chill had finally finished eating the entire gate. But this two-person-high metal door was just an appetizer for him. To fill his belly, it was indeed far from enough.
Predatory instinct made him focus his attention on the soldiers' equipment. The guns and daggers in their hands were the best food.
Spreading his wings again, Big Chill flew towards the soldier closest to him like a real ghost. Facing the monster flying towards them that could swallow metal and eat iron, the soldiers sped up the speed of changing magazines in their hands, and started the second round of shooting before Big Chill flew in front of them.
This time, Big Chill did not choose to hard resist because he didn't want to abandon mobility. He honestly activated intangibility and dodged the rain of bullets.
Big Chill, who demonstrated his ability, undoubtedly frightened these soldiers. How to fight an enemy that cannot even be touched? Their thoughts suddenly fell into chaos.
Big Chill didn't care about these. Flying close, he stretched out his claws and cut off the weapon belt on the soldier's body, snatched the guns from his hand, and then swallowed a gun whole in front of the stunned soldier.
Silky smooth, just like slurping a mouthful of noodles.
The commander immediately understood when he saw this visuals. The enemy in front of them was not someone they could deal with. They had to let that guy in the base take action.
