Chapter 026: Go Save the World
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第026章 去拯救世界
Diana shifted her gaze to Wang Bo and asked, "Ares is a very terrifying god. I'm not sure I can defeat him, but I believe you will help me, right?"
"Of course." Wang Bo nodded. He certainly knew how fearsome Ares was. As the god of war, the conflicts of the human world were the source of his power. The more war, the stronger Ares became.
And now, during World War I, the power of the war god Ares must have reached an extreme level of terror.
Even Wang Bo had no intention of defeating Ares at the moment.
In the original storyline, there were many factors that allowed Diana to defeat Ares.
However, now that the plot had changed, some of those factors were no longer effective. But Wang Bo believed that as long as he and Diana joined forces, killing Ares would not be a problem.
Hearing Wang Bo's answer, Diana revealed a charming smile.
But she did not immediately go to her mother to tell Hippolyta of her decision.
Instead, she took Wang Bo around Themyscira, introducing him to the island's scenery while also adjusting her own mindset. With a great battle imminent, she needed to conserve her energy and bring her body and mind to their peak.
After all, Ares was a true god.
And she was only a demigod.
Wang Bo did not share Diana's concerns. He simply felt that if he and Diana teamed up, with some of his trump cards, dealing with Ares would be a sure thing.
Therefore, he calmed down and, as Diana introduced the sights, enjoyed the scenery of Themyscira.
What surprised Wang Bo was that the scenery of Themyscira was unimaginably enchanting. Because its civilization was still in a feudal era, there was no trace of industrial pollution.
Whether mountains, waters, or landscapes, everything was pristine. The beauty was astonishing, and calling it a paradise on earth was no exaggeration.
Diana had once said that the scenery of Themyscira would not disappoint him. At this moment, Wang Bo finally understood the meaning of those words.
Yes, the scenery of Themyscira indeed did not disappoint Wang Bo.
In fact, it left Wang Bo feeling amazed.
He had traveled through several countries in the fairy-tale world and admired many landscapes, but those beautiful sights paled in comparison to Themyscira.
"This is truly a beautiful place." Wang Bo stood on a cliff, gazing at the azure and magnificent sea, and spoke involuntarily.
Diana smiled slightly and said proudly, "This is my homeland."
It was clear that she was very proud of her home.
After they had spent the day wandering, in the evening, the Amazon warriors unexpectedly prepared a simple welcome party for Wang Bo.
This caught Wang Bo off guard. He hadn't expected that he, an uninvited guest, would receive a welcome from the Amazon warriors. Logically, this place was rarely visited by men, let alone welcomed.
Diana saw the confusion in Wang Bo's mind and slowly said, "Your strength has conquered them."
"It can't be that simple," Wang Bo retorted. If strength alone could conquer the Amazon warriors, then these people would have long since surrendered to Ares.
"Of course, there's also the fact that they are grateful you saved their general."
"General?"
"That's me." Just then, a female voice came from behind Wang Bo.
Wang Bo turned around and saw a blonde woman wearing a very Greek-style evening gown approaching.
Wang Bo immediately recognized her as the blonde woman he had fought with during the day and quickly greeted her, "Good evening, beautiful lady."
"Thank you for the compliment," the blonde woman said.
Diana said, "This is Antiope, not only my aunt but also my instructor. The reason I am what I am today is inseparable from her training."
Wang Bo said, "I can see that your fighting techniques are almost identical."
Both liked to hit people in the face.
Antiope said, "Young man, I am very grateful that you saved my life today. You are Diana's friend, and thus a friend of all Amazons. So we have prepared a small welcome party for you. I hope you will like it."
"You are too kind, Lady Antiope," Wang Bo quickly said. "I am very grateful for your welcome."
Antiope smiled slightly and said, "Take good care of your friend, Diana."
Diana agreed.
After the welcome party began, many Amazon warriors toasted Wang Bo, but he felt that the way they looked at him seemed somewhat different.
However, Wang Bo certainly did not think these women had taken a fancy to him.
Because these Amazon warriors were all much older than Wang Bo, they probably wouldn't be interested in a man of his age. Still, Wang Bo was sensitive to their gazes.
Because those women's eyes contained too many things.
If this were someone else's welcome party, Wang Bo might have sneaked out quietly, but since it was his own party, he couldn't just slip away halfway.
So he had no choice but to grit his teeth and stay put until the party ended.
Late at night, after the welcome party ended, Wang Bo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, under Diana's guidance, Wang Bo arrived at a room prepared for him, where he spent his first night in this world, and also his first night on Themyscira.
Boom!
Early the next morning, before Wang Bo was fully awake, his door was kicked open.
Awakened by the loud noise, Wang Bo just opened his eyes and sat up in bed when he saw Diana, fully armed, walking in from outside.
In her right hand, she held the Sword of Hephaestus; in her left, the Aegis; on her wrists, the Gauntlets of Atlas; and at her waist, the Lasso of Truth.
She was already prepared, her fighting spirit almost piercing the sky.
"How long are you going to sleep? Don't forget, the world is waiting for us to save it."
Faced with Diana's teasing, Wang Bo couldn't help but show a helpless smile.
"It seems you are ready."
"Of course." Diana brandished her sword and shield, lightly clashing them together with a resounding clang. "Let's go, let's go save the world."
Seeing Diana's eagerness, Wang Bo had no choice but to nod, change his clothes, and prepare to set out.
"Have you told your mother about this?"
As they were leaving Themyscira, Wang Bo asked.
Diana nodded. "Of course."
"She didn't object?" Wang Bo was somewhat surprised. In the plot, Hippolyta seemed to dote on Diana and was unwilling to let her face Ares.
