Chapter 418 Paradise Island

New York, in the room of Revan.

The night had already fallen, and Raven's bedroom was pitch black and quiet. She sat cross-legged on the bed alone, closing her eyes lightly, and meditating.

She doesn't hate darkness, and even prefers the tranquility of staying alone in the darkness, which helps her concentrate. But now, no matter how hard she tries, her spirit always seems to be unable to concentrate. The lingering distractions circling in her mind, making it difficult for her to get into the state.

Finally, she finally sighed and gave up on continuing to meditate.

It has been a month since Eric returned, and it seems to be a little colder than in the past. In the past, Eric spent time with her almost every day, but now she seems to have only met him three or four times in the month he returned.

Of course, she was sure that Eric herself was undoubtedly the one who came back, and she was absolutely obedient to him as always and never complained. But she could clearly find that Eric seemed to have changed a lot from within.

Every time she thinks of this, she shakes her head and prevents herself from continuing to think about it.

Eric is Eric. Now that he has officially joined the Justice League and even moved to the watchtower, he will certainly be much busier than before, and there is no way to be distracted by other things. She told herself this.

At this moment, she noticed a meteor falling outside the window. The dazzling tail flame slashed through the sky, extinguished at the location close to her house, and landed vertically not far away.

She couldn't help but smile with relief, knowing that it was him who was here.

"Raven, someone is here to find you!"

Sure enough, half a minute later, Eric appeared in front of her, and this time she was carrying a handful of flowers.

She remembered that it seemed like the first time she received flowers from him.

"Sorry, I've been busy for a while and haven't come to see you." Eric said a little apologetically, "Do you want to go out for a ride?"

Ruiwen nodded with a slight smile: "Yeah."

She likes Eric and will try her best to like him more in the future, so that she may not care about where he has changed.

Paradise Island.

Diana thought about it for a while and finally adopted Eric's suggestion. After asking the league for a few days off, she flew back to Paradise Island and prepared to stay with her mother for a few days.

Eric was right, after all, that was her mother. No matter what happened, they had to make up in the end, so it was a step that had to be taken.

She made up countless reasons for herself along the way that she had no reason to go back to Paradise Island to check out, but in the end she found that she couldn't even convince herself, so she had to bite the bullet and go on.

However, what was waiting for her on Paradise Island was a much bigger problem than these.

Diana landed on the beach along the coast of Paradise Island. She walked into the jungle that was extremely familiar to the seashore and headed towards the direction where the Amazons lived. After walking for less than ten minutes, two stone statues came into view in the forest.

Diana was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to check it out, and soon recognized them from her appearance. The two people in front of her were two sisters she had known since childhood. They had taken her to the woods to hunt, and their memories were still fresh. The expression of the stone statue in front of her was so lifelike, with horror in her eyes, and she seemed to be scolding loudly on her mouth. The hand pressed on the hilt of the sword was unable to pull the sword out of the sheath. The scene was quite desolate.

Diana recognized that this was an extremely powerful black magic. The dark magic made her two sisters turn into stone sculptures and were determined to be unable to move even if they were supposed to move.

Knowing that something was wrong, she hurriedly left these two sisters temporarily and ran. The Wonder Woman all ran at an extraordinary speed. In just a moment, she had rushed out of the forest and arrived at the martial arts field where the Amazons were practicing in concentrated manner.

At this time, the huge martial arts field was in a mess. A large number of Amazon sisters fell to the ground, their bodies hardened into rocks, and were fixed in place like sculptures. More people were still holding the posture of drawing their swords to charge, but they were also fixed in place and became stone sculptures. The entire martial arts field was filled with a death-like atmosphere, just like the remains left by an ancient war, without any vitality.

Diana hurriedly rushed to the hall and found her mother at the door. Queen Hippolyta had a firm and angry look on her face, holding a sword in one hand on the ground, half-kneeled and petrified in place, with her facial expression vivid.

"Great Hera..." The heroine was shocked, slowly approached her mother step by step, and knelt in front of her.

"I'm sorry," she murmured, "I...I shouldn't be so willful, I should have stayed. If I stayed...I'm sorry, mother, and sisters..."

Seeing that the Wonder Woman was in a mess, the figure hidden in the darkness quietly appeared. He chanted a string of spells in a low voice, raised his hand and raised something, and a dark fluctuation suddenly stabbed towards the kneeling female hero like an arrow!

However, Wonder Woman is not such a easy-to-deal character? She suddenly turned around as if her eyes were growing behind her back, raised her arms to protect the silver ring to block the wave. Her figure rushed out like a sharp lightning, strangled her throat and pressed the sneak attack shadow on the pillar behind, shaking the dust on the top of the hall and falling.

The other party hurriedly raised his hands: "Wait, wait! I have something to say!"

Diana then saw clearly that this was a man in black robe with a shriveled facial skin and an ugly appearance. She said angrily: "Who are you? Why are you on Paradise Island? What did you do to my mother and sisters!?"

As a demigod, the aura of a woman who is angry is not something that ordinary people can withstand? But this vulgar guy can still remain calm and hurriedly said, "Don't get angry for now, Wonder Woman. My name is Felix Faust, just a scholar. I know you are very powerful, but if I were you, I will let go first."

"Give me a reason to do so."

"Because I am the only one who can untie all of them."

To confirm that the curse of the sisters could be untied, Diana couldn't help but look happy and shouted: "Unlock their curse for me, otherwise I'll crush your head now!"

"It's not impossible to ask me to untie this curse, but of course it's impossible to be unconditional." Faust said, "I just need you to help me find a few things. With your abilities, it shouldn't be difficult. As long as you can help me bring what I want, I will untie the curse of all of them immediately."

Diana frowned: "How do I know I can trust you?"

"Don't worry, I'm the one who keeps my word." Faust laughed evilly, "Besides, do you have any other choice now? Princess?"

Diana glared at him in disgust for a moment, throwing him hard to the ground.

"What do you need me to look for?"

"I don't know what exactly it will be. But you can find it by following the guidance of this pointer."

Faust said, from somewhere, he had found an ancient round dial with the shape, with the only pointer on it, pointing firmly in a certain direction.

"You only have one day, princess," stressed Faust, "if you fail to complete it in twenty-four hours, even I can't save these sisters."

Diana stared at him and said, "If you dare to lie to me, even a word..."

"I dare not, I am just an unknown scholar. How dare I get along with the famous Wonder Woman?" Faust smiled with a beating smile, "As long as you bring what I want, I will definitely lift their curse without delay for half a second."

Diana turned around and looked at it several times, and finally flew helplessly and left Paradise Island in the direction guided by the pointer.
