"Ding!"
"Battle detected, drop reward: Stormbreaker (Venilia)"
"Ding!"
"Battle detected, drop reward: Transformation (Ares, the God of War)"
"Ding!"
"Battle detected, drop reward: Truth Lasso (Wonder Woman)"
"Ding!"
"Battle detected, drop reward: Flight (Ares, the God of War)"
The battle rewards for Venilia blocking Ares' attack and Diana attacking Ares almost dropped one after another.
Unfortunately, both times Ares dropped only basic abilities. It might take some time to get his core ability, divine power.
But it doesn't matter, the Thunder God Legion has many people. Everyone gives Ares an axe, and it should be possible to get it.
If not, then do it again!
Of the four rewards just now, only the transformation ability was worth mentioning. Simply put, it was like the Mutant Mystique or the Skrull, who could transform into any appearance.
However, Ares' transformation was not like theirs, which could even change genes; it was just a simple change of appearance and body.
To put it bluntly, it was a bit stronger than the transformation of magic illusion, because illusion was fake, and his transformation was real!
"Whoosh—"
Ares teleported to dodge the Stormbreaker flying from behind, and flashed to Diana's front.
Seeing that Venilia had already taken her axe, Diana simply did not recall it, and directly took out the God-Slaying Sword and stabbed towards Ares.
Ares had a light smile on his face and raised his palm towards the God-Slaying Sword that was stabbing towards him.
"Chi chi chi — —"
The lunging God-Slaying Sword broke inch by inch under Ares's palm, turning into ash.
Diana stared blankly at the remaining hilt, somewhat disbelieving: "This, this is a weapon for slaying Gods."
"It is not a weapon for slaying Gods, You — —"
Ares was just about to use words to disturb people's hearts and provoke Diana's stance, but saw that Diana had already woken up from her shock and directly bound him with the shining Truth Lasso.
Diana pulled the Truth Lasso with one hand, and reached behind her with the other, summoning Stormbreaker.
"I am not the War God, Diana, I am the Truth God."
"Humans stole this World from our hands, they destroy it day by day, and I, the only God who saw through this point, am powerless to stop them."
"For so many years I have been fighting alone, I whisper in their ears, bring them inspiration, invent poisons and weapons. But I have never forced them to use them, they are the ones who started the wars themselves, all I did was plan a ceasefire agreement that they would absolutely not abide by, leading them towards self-destruction."
"But this has never been enough, until You came."
Ares spoke temptingly in a tone like 'Uncle will take You to see the goldfish'.
"If You can see what the Gods have never been able to see, then You will stand with me! When we unite, we can end all the suffering, all the torment, and the destruction brought by humans."
"We can make this World return to the paradise it was before humans appeared, forever!"
Ares smiled as he looked at Diana, the flashing God Power in his hand had already shown her the changes in the World through the Truth Lasso.
The World being destroyed little by little by humans, and the World regaining natural vitality after humans were gone.
He could feel Diana's hesitation and wavering!
"Come, join me, let's join hands and make the World return to having humans — —"
"Poof!"
The belated Stormbreaker interrupted Ares's temptation, directly chopping him on the shoulder with an axe!
The Heavenly Dao is good at reincarnation!
In the ancient war many years ago, Ares, at the peak of his strength, injured the pretentious Darkseid with an axe. Times have changed, the pretentious person has become him, and the person injured by the axe has also become him!
"You talk too much nonsense!" Diana held Stormbreaker and suddenly activated her God Power.
"Bang!"
Stormbreaker erupted with powerful Thunder power, directly blasting away the bewildered and pained Ares.
His temptation indeed made Diana waver for a moment.
Excluding the previous unexpected invasions by humans, Diana's understanding of humans was basically limited to some stories told by her mother Hippolyta.
The main villain in these stories was Ares, and humans were just tempted, so when Ares spoke of the true nature of humans, Diana indeed wavered a little.
Are such humans worth saving?
Then, she woke up.
Whether humans are worth saving or not is beside the point, the main purpose this time wasn't to save humans, they were here to defeat Ares!
Saving humans and defeating Ares are not opposing relationships, where You can only choose one!
Looking at Ares who was getting up fiercely in the distance, Diana directly rushed towards him.
Ares stared angrily at the rapidly approaching Diana, raised his arm, and swung it hard towards her.
In an instant, fragments of car wreckage and plane wreckage around them flew towards Diana like raindrops.
Diana swung her axe, unleashing a bolt of Thunder, instantly blasting the wreckage fragments in front of her into dust. Immediately after, she leaped high and smashed Stormbreaker down towards Ares.
"Bang!"
Powerful energy scattered and impacted, the ground cracked like a spider web, winding and splitting.
Ares, who had used Teleportation to hide in another location, activated his God Power, and some metal wreckage nearby instantly floated up, then quickly changed shape and fell onto his body.
Ares reshaped these remnants with God Power, turning them into a suit of armor.
"Bang — —"
Diana, like an arrow released from a bowstring, instantly rushed in front of Ares, and Stormbreaker chopped down again.
"Plop!"
Ares, who had just put on the armor, had his arm directly cut off!
This was still because he reacted quickly and retreated a step, otherwise it wouldn't have been just his arm that was cut off.
The pain and anger of his severed arm made Ares roar, and his remaining arm directly activated God Power, turning into crackling Thunder that blasted towards Diana.
Diana held the axe with both hands and blocked in front of her.
"Zzzzz — — Zzzzz — —"
Stormbreaker, struck by the Thunder, showed no sign of being defeated, but instead also flashed with Thunder.
The two streams of Thunder clashed with each other, crackling; the two streams of God Power were in a stalemate, making it difficult to tell which was stronger.
However, with a loud roar from Diana, her own God Power suddenly erupted!
In an instant, a tide of God Power poured out.
Stormbreaker's Thunder suddenly surged, directly blasting away Ares's Thunder.
Ares was even more directly sent flying backward by the combined impact of Thunder God Power and God Power. At the same time, the armor on his body broke inch by inch under the impact, turning into dust.
Just like the God-Slaying Sword before!
...
"Bang!"
Ares, who fell heavily to the ground, carved a long mark on the ground.
A few seconds later.
The one-armed Ares stumbled to his feet, his face ashen, and looked at Diana with a complex gaze, as she didn't 'take his life while he was down'.
"You have two kinds of God Power, one of which is the same as theirs, is it because of that axe?"
Even though defeating Zeus and the Gods made him lose his peak and his power was greatly reduced, Ares did not think that Diana, who was only a demigoddess, could be stronger than himself.
The only reason was the axe they each had!
What exactly is this axe, and why can it allow them to possess Thunder God Power comparable to the Gods?
