Chapter 280 For Justice!
The stand where Dane is located is located in the VIP seat. Next to him is Menalip, the lieutenant who stood next to Hippolyta yesterday.
She obeyed Antiope's orders and stared at Dane, but Dane saw several times that her eyes were glancing in the direction of the battlefield, as if there was a magic power there that was attracting her.
He said with a smile: "If you want to watch it, just watch it freely? Don't worry, with my relationship with Diana, I won't do anything bad to Paradise Island."
But Menalip didn't believe it at all. She had also participated in the Earth Defense War, and had even witnessed Asteria's sacrifice in the human world.
After the Golden Age, humans betrayed the Amazons, forcing them to flee into the current shelter established for them by Zeus.
But Asteria stayed alone for a long time, and finally died in the human world.
After seeing her distrustful expression, Dane didn't bother to talk to her anymore and turned his attention back to the arena.
He couldn't help but narrowed his eyes when he saw that Hippolyta was able to blow Diana away with her own strength.
Suddenly, a magic power condensed on his eyes. He used magic to activate "Eagle Eyes" and saw the clues in Hippolyta.
There is a thin divine power in her body, very weak, but it is a genuine divine power.
This piqued Dane's interest.
"Interesting, who gave her this power?"
He could see that the power in Hippolyta was slightly used up and could only sustain this battle, so it should have been temporarily borrowed from some god.
Even so, while the divine power is in effect, it can help level the ability gap between Hippolyta and Diana.
In terms of strength, speed, endurance and even defense, she is temporarily on the same level as Diana.
In this way, they are really competing for skills, consciousness, and tactical wisdom. Only in this way can it be called an evenly matched and fair battle.
Antiop immediately understood what Hippolyta had done, but it was within the rules, so she didn't say anything.
So all the Amazons present were lucky enough to witness the two demigods competing in the arena.
Almost every attack they made destroyed the site and shook its foundation.
Diana quickly adapted to Hippolyta's fighting rhythm. She just didn't react for a while, allowing the opponent to take the lead, but now that she has adapted, it is her turn to fight back!
"You seem to have the same power as me, which is better!"
After Diana said that, she jumped and struck hard.
Hippolyta reacted quickly and blocked, but she forgot how terrifying the power of demigods was, and she had not yet adapted to the thinking of a normal person.
So when Diana's sword struck the shield, Hippolyta immediately understood that she had made a big mistake!
Because she knew that Hippolyta had the power to fight against her, Diana didn't hold back at all this time!
She dropped her sword, and the ordinary round shield was instantly cut in half by her huge force, and moved downwards, scratching Hippolyta's arm.
Hippolyta immediately retreated quickly, but Diana kept pursuing her!
Helpless, Hippolyta could only continue to deal with Diana's attack with the sword in one hand, while quickly using magic to restore the injuries on her arm.
There was an uproar in the stands, especially when they saw the Queen, who had always been aloof and unreachable, being chased and beaten by her daughter. This shook the faith of many people.
The Amazons are a martial people, so the strong are naturally respected here.
Especially the person who has the upper hand is not an outsider, but Diana.
Many people here have grown up watching her, so Diana's defeat of Hippolyta will not cause dissatisfaction among them, so all the Amazons cheer for her!
Antiope stood on the sidelines a little anxious.
As my sister, she naturally hopes that her sister can win more, not because of the throne, but because she also agrees with Hippolyta's idea in her heart.
The Amazons can no longer afford further losses, and they have already shown their utmost kindness to the world and mankind. There is no reason to die for a group of people they don't even know.
But it's useless for her to be anxious. After all, Hippolyta still has to fight this battle herself.
In these few minutes, Hippolyta relied on her superb fighting skills to finally buy herself enough time.
Her injured arm has recovered as before. Although she has lost some magical power, it is still within control.
Hippolyta began to hold the sword with both hands, and fought with Diana again, and the situation was once again evenly matched.
In fact, according to Hippolyta's current usage, as long as Diana can persist and wait until the opponent's divine power is exhausted, she can naturally win easily.
But Dane knew that with Diana's pride, she would never do this.
Sure enough, after Hippolyta recovered from her injuries, Diana not only did not change her fighting mode, but instead accelerated her attack.
Under the storm-like attack, Hippolyta could only try her best to protect herself with her sword. Without the round shield, she would indeed suffer a bit in terms of blocking.
But she is very patient, she knows Diana's shortcomings, and she is waiting for an opportunity.
And the opportunity soon presented itself.
Seeing that she couldn't attack for a long time, Diana simply discarded the buckler. There was no need for it anyway, so she chose to focus on the attack.
However, this act of discarding the buckler gave Hippolyta an excellent opportunity to counterattack!
She took advantage of the moment when Diana threw away the buckler and slashed at Diana's waist with her sword, as if she was vowing to cut her into two pieces.
This determination made Diana unable to ignore it, so she let go of the hand holding the buckler and returned to defense with all her strength, and the buckler fell between the two of them.
In a blind spot that Diana couldn't see, Hippolyta reached out and grabbed the shield she had discarded, and then pushed it forward.
The buckler hit Diana directly in the face, pushing her out again.
This time Hippolyta would not make another mistake. She firmly grasped the buckler and continued to block Diana's vision with the shield.
And she was holding the sword in her other hand, waiting for the opportunity to move, waiting for Diana to hit her with a violent attack when she landed, just like Diana had done to her before.
But this is also the opportunity that Diana is waiting for. She is not anxious when the shield changes hands, and she is not anxious when Hippolyta takes the initiative back. Even if the other party deliberately blocks her sight, she still does not panic at all.
The moment she fell to the ground, Diana smashed the ground with one hand, and huge amounts of force pushed her body back in the air. This was beyond Hippolyta's expectations, and the amount of advance she had just calculated lost its effect. .
Hippolyta didn't realize that when she blocked Diana's vision with her shield, her own vision was also blocked.
So she didn't realize Diana's target was her feet!
Therefore, Diana slashed the round shield with her sword, but at the same time she bent down and kicked Hippolyta's calf, instantly causing her center of gravity to lose balance.
Huge amounts of foot power even caused Hippolyta's entire body to turn ninety degrees. When she started to protect her body with her buckler again, Diana stabbed her sword into the buckler.
She deflected the buckler hard, and Hippolyta's sword was stuck in the buckler.
Then she pulled the buckler out of Hippolyta's hand with another force and threw it aside.
Then he punched Hippolyta into the air.
Hippolyta bounced on the ground a few times, and then wanted to stand up, but by this time Diana had already pounced on her.
She used the locking skills she learned from the human world to lock Hippolyta's joints. Under the huge amounts of power, even Hippolyta, who had received the blessing, felt unable to move.
So she struggled a few times and then gave up.
It was really unseemly for her and Diana to struggle with their opponents in the middle of the arena.
Doing this in public is an act that damages their honor, so Hippolyta has no choice but to admit defeat.
When Diana let her go, she was quite angry: "Where did you learn such an inappropriate technique from 713?!"
She didn't know at this time that she was being used by Diana, taking advantage of her need to always maintain dignity in front of the people.
Otherwise, this battle would still have to be fought.
Diana said proudly: "Because I know that if you follow the Amazon's fighting style, you would rather fight to death than admit defeat, but the divine power in your body cannot support you to fight until that time."
Once Hippolyta loses the protection of her divine power, and Diana swings a punch containing the power of a demigod, she is really afraid that Hippolyta will punch her on the spot, and Diana may not be able to react!
At the moment, she felt that what Dane said was true. Don’t be scrupulous when it’s time to use means, and use them decisively. This is called wisdom!
Standing in the stands, Dane almost laughed out loud when he saw the scene in front of him.
Diana has become a bit sinister now, and she doesn’t know who she learned it from.
"It's not honorable to win like this!"
Next to Dane, Menalip was also very angry. With her eyesight, she could naturally see the problem.
But obviously, obviously Diana has the ability to win more honorably!
"I think if it hadn't been like this, a king would have died today."
With Hippolyta's character, she would probably prefer to die in battle directly to clear the final obstacle to Diana's throne.
A new king ascends the throne, but the old king is still alive. What kind of life is it like?
It seems that Hippolyta will still have Ability to seize power in the future, and she is not in Atlanna's situation.
Hippolyta did not make any mistakes during her reign, so I am afraid that there will be many old people who are willing to still take orders under her command and ignore Diana.
But for Diana, inheriting the throne was never what she wanted. There was only one thing she wanted from beginning to end.
"Mother, now that I have won, please immediately issue the king's order to assemble all the Amazon armies. We will fight a war with humans and Atlantis.
"For justice!".
