Volume 8: The Fourth Impact Chapter 3: Baby, you will be born later. Mom will go and kill a few people to cheer you up.
"This isn't right, Mason."
The high-speed Octant transport ship was rapidly crossing the Mediterranean region, speeding towards Paradise Island at several times the speed of sound. However, in the control room of the transport ship, Selina, who had taken off her mask, said to Mason, who was standing next to her and playing with a lighter:
"These conquerors wouldn't be so reckless, right? How could they rely on a bunch of rookies to carry out such a high-level operation as assassinating Wonder Woman?
Based on my understanding of the X-Men's powers, if they want to succeed in the assassination, they would have to mobilize at least a few Omega-level mutants, right?
And what can these new recruits do?
Not enough to cause trouble.”
"You have to understand, Selina, that these recruits are only here now because of our intervention."
Barbara, who was adjusting the aircraft status, responded:
"According to normal procedures, they would be wiped out as soon as they entered this world, so their mission is actually very simple, which is to create chaos. Didn't Psylocke say that just now?
This time, they are not the only ones coming. Similar conqueror recruits are being dispatched all over the world, and the number is quite considerable, which is a classic tactic of luring the tiger away from the mountain.
I have just quietly hacked into the lower-level communication network of the Justice Lords of this world. In addition to these rookies who are creating chaos, there are also some elite teams that are creating chaos around the world, and members including Lord Superman have been dispatched.
The whole world is in noisy now.
From a strategic perspective, their actions were quite successful, but tactically they were a bit cold-blooded. "
"This is not only to lure the tiger away from the mountain, but also to exert pressure."
Mason, who was sitting next to him holding Harley, added:
“We know that these are fresh recruits who can be easily consumed, but the justice lords of this world don’t know. If I were them, I would see this as a precursor to a large-scale invasion.
In recent years, this world has been suppressing unstable supernatural forces within it. This has certainly united the world, but it has also caused a lack of successors to superheroes.
There are only a few Lords of Justice here, and they all have their own defense areas. When such signs appear, they have no time to rush to each other's aid.
This created an effective opportunity for the Conqueror to assassinate Diana Prince!
But the information that Psylocke said is very likely incomplete. She is only a junior commander and has no authority to know the real action plan. "
Mason narrowed his eyes and said:
"So I think the real purpose of this operation is still questionable. Do you remember the gossip Emilia shared when we came here?
Regarding the unconfirmed news that Wonder Woman is pregnant, I now doubt whether the rumor is true!
The conqueror's tactical purpose was not to assassinate her.
They might want to capture her alive and do a 'buy one, get one free' deal, but don't forget that Wonder Woman in this world is already married to Superman.
With Dachao's personality, he would definitely be quite passive when his wife and her unborn child fell into the hands of others.
Under the premise that the two Lords of Justice are restrained, the conquerors' invasion of this world is likely to achieve huge results in a short period of time!
This is just the first step in a much larger strategic plan, and we are fortunate or unfortunate enough to be here at the right time for it to be executed.”
Hearing Mason's guess and description, the girls in the control cabin suddenly widened their eyes. Barbara clenched her fists and scolded:
"This is so disrespectful. It is really unethical to target a pregnant woman."
"Ahem, little Barbara, I have to remind you that the delicate pregnant woman you are talking about can strangle any of us to death with one hand, including sweetheart!"
Harry winked and said:
"This is indeed a bad thing, but it is really effective for the villain's thinking mode. And don't be angry, aren't we here to help the poor mother?
We are good people!
At least they are good villains!
We can't just ignore this bad thing, right, sweetheart?"
She tilted her head towards Mason like a kitten, causing the captain to reach out and pat her forehead in encouragement.
"But what about those guys in the cabin?"
Catwoman grabbed her cat tail whip and whispered to Mason:
"Now that we have learned of their action plan, there is no point in keeping these rookies, right? Or do you intend to use them as 'action props'?
I think the elite conquerors who were responsible for the kidnappings would not be so easy to deceive."
"Why would you lie?"
Mason reached out and put the Star Society mask on his face. He said:
"We pioneers have always been the traditional allies of conquerors, right? If a brother organization wants to do something big, we must lend a hand. This is called sharing the joy of the cause.
Barbara, prepare fire support.
You will break in from high altitude and open a safe zone directly to Amazon Island for our conqueror brothers, allowing them to land smoothly.
Quinn will stay here and cooperate with you."
He stood up and said to Catwoman and Harley:
"You two, come with me and go to the back. During this chaotic time, we are going to visit that 'magic mother'."
"boom"
Just as Mason finished his words, a blinding flash of fire suddenly exploded on the empty sea ahead, as if some force had detonated and completely shattered the hidden defenses of Paradise Island, exposing the secluded Amazon Kingdom to the material world.
"The conquerors are on the move!"
The captain snapped his fingers and said:
"Let's get moving too."
…
“Your Majesty! The invaders are attacking our outer defenses. They are few in number but very elite. They should be a commando team composed of Omega-level mutants.
They are clearly here for you!
Please move immediately!"
In the palace of Amazon Island, magical communications from the island front unfolded before Queen Diana's eyes. The moment the invasion signal was received, the Queen's guards immediately took action to blockade the palace.
A large number of Pegasus Knights took off into the air to fight, and magicians joined forces to build a giant barrier to protect the palace.
But Wonder Woman didn't care.
In this world, she wears a bright red armor with gold embellishments and a king's cloak. She wears a golden headband on her head. Her face is firm and majestic, with long black hair draped over her shoulders.
But there is a bunch of long white hair on the forehead which is very eye-catching.
Compared to the Wonder Woman in other worlds, the Queen of Justice in this world is much more "mature" and full of the charm of a queen. However, her big belly destroys the tenacity and fighting spirit that a female warrior should have.
Even the most powerful Valkyrie in the world can't help but show a bit of fragility when she is about to give birth after ten months of pregnancy.
However, just because of the impending birth, this is not a reason for the Amazon warriors to escape from the battle.
"I'm not going anywhere!"
Faced with the concerns of her subordinates, the Queen of Justice took the golden spear handed to her by the maid beside her with an expressionless face. Several other fully armed female knights also handed her combat weapons.
She said in a low voice:
"Hold the line and annihilate the enemy! Don't worry about the palace. I will be here personally."
"But your body and the prince who is about to be born..."
The forward general wanted to persuade him again, but was interrupted by Diana. She scolded:
"That is not your concern, my General! I am the mistress of the Amazon Kingdom, and I will not abandon my sisters, my land, and my people.
As for my son...
He who will be born on the night of war is destined to start his lifelong legend. I believe my child will not interfere with his mother's fight at this time.
This is the son of an Amazon , he must learn to fight from birth!"
The queen stood up, reached out and stroked her belly, feeling the rhythm of life within it. A maternal glow appeared on her resolute face.
She stroked her belly as if she were stroking her unborn baby, and whispered:
"Baby, be patient for a while and watch your mother break through the enemy lines for you. This may be the best prenatal education you deserve... You must never give in, just like me and your father."
The next moment, the queen raised her spear, tapped the ground, and shouted at her guards:
"Bring the horses! Follow me to attack!"
The battle outside the palace has now reached a fever pitch. The horrifying heat wave summons meteors with temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees that smash into the glorious royal city. It is the super energy of the "God of Fire" Vulkan that is erupting, like a red sun suspended in the air that burns and burns everything that comes close.
There was a scorching heat overhead, but the ground was freezing cold.
Another Omega-level mutant, "Iceman", was wreaking havoc on the ground, causing the freezing winter of all things to shatter, as if a glacier had descended here and brought half of Paradise Island into a polar storm.
This combination of ice and fire is considered superior even in the Conqueror Sequence, but they are still a little insufficient to fight against the Lord of Justice who is too powerful in this world.
Therefore, this secret team that carries out special missions is also equipped with quite elite veterans who charge on the ground and continuously attack the positions of the Amazon muscular sisters who are determined to fight to the death.
Tonight's attack went much more smoothly than expected.
After the attack began, powerful firepower support from nowhere helped the conquerors to successfully break through the outermost line of defense. They also dropped a large number of hunting robots to delay the pursuers, allowing them to approach the palace at a faster speed.
Although it seems that the conquerors have the upper hand now, in fact both sides are very clear that the most important factor now is time.
If Wonder Woman cannot be captured and evacuated successfully in a short period of time, these current advantages will soon collapse with the assistance of other Justice Lords.
"The target appears!"
Vulkan, the god of fire in the sky, soon noticed the Queen of Justice who was leading a group of golden cavalry out of the palace. After seeing the latter galloping on her horse despite her big belly and stabbing the red tank that was blocking her with just one spear, the Omega mutant had to be impressed by her opponent's bravery and strength.
While notifying the Iceman on the ground, he complained:
"This woman is fucking crazy! If it was my wife going into battle with a big belly, I would be absolutely scared to death. Didn't we get news that she would give birth today, when she is at her weakest?
Look at this damn instant kill, is this something a pregnant woman about to give birth can do?"
"That's the Queen of Justice, Vulkan."
The Iceman replied helplessly:
"I wouldn't be surprised if this amazing woman could do anything. A child born from such a tough mother would probably be able to grab a weapon and kill people in battle as soon as he opens his eyes...
The divine power impact is coming!
defense!"
"Bang"
At this moment, a terrifying wall of glacier rose from the ground, forming a Great Wall-like defense to protect the mutant veterans who were attacking on the ground.
But the next second, with the roar of the Queen of Justice, the power of war was released, and in an instant it even overshadowed the light of the God of Fire in the sky. The glacier wall was silently shattered and took away one-third of the elite mutant veterans on the ground in the next second.
Just like the unlucky people who were hit by a nuclear explosion, there was no trace of their bodies left but only black marks.
Among those who were hit head-on by this divine power attack, only Wolverine survived with difficulty, but a small half of his adamantium skeleton was destroyed.
"This lunatic! Such a massive explosion of divine power! Isn't she afraid that it might kill her child?"
The God of Fire cursed, and with great difficulty gathered the disturbed energy around his body and smashed it downwards. The Ice Man was hit head-on by the divine power and was temporarily offline.
Now he has to go up and hold the line.
"ah……"
Her Majesty the Queen, who had just completed an inspiring battlefield breakthrough, was about to pursue the victory, but she was suddenly hit by a severe pain in her abdomen, so that she could not even hold her weapon, and she fell off her horse with her body shaking.
This frightened the surrounding guards.
They rushed forward to rescue their queen, and engaged in an extremely bloody battle with the conquerors who had pounced on them right where Diana had fallen.
"Baby...you are not behaving well..."
The Queen of Justice put her hands over her belly covered by armor. The violent fetal movement seemed to represent the baby's dissatisfaction, which made the mother extremely helpless.
She knew it wasn't her child's fault.
After all, he should have been born fifteen minutes ago. The fact that this strong baby has managed to hold on until now is a great honor to his reckless mother.
"Your Majesty! Retreat! Quickly! Your water has broken, and His Royal Highness the Prince is about to be born!"
The captain of the guards of the Queen of Justice picked up the Sword of the God of Fire and the Shield of the Bladebreaker that the Queen dropped. She shouted to the loyal guards beside her:
"Take His Majesty back to the palace! Send the midwife over immediately! We will guard this place until the little prince is born safely. Amazon warriors, for the glory of the Queen and the Lord of Justice!
Follow me and charge!"
At a command from the captain of the guards, more guards rushed forward with red eyes. In this world, not only were the Lords of Justice far superior to their kind, but these superhumans were also quite powerful.
They braved the ravages of the God of Fire and launched a counterattack against the conquerors in front of them. Even with the support of air firepower, these veteran conquerors were killed and retreated step by step.
Seeing this scene, Barbara, who was operating various unmanned aerial vehicles to provide support overhead, shook her head.
There's no way to fight this!
The defenders were powerful and had a strong will, so their combat intensity was at its maximum. The conquerors were elite but still could not defeat the enemy in a short period of time. The most important thing was that the reinforcements from the Lord of Justice had already set out.
Batgirl knew that this operation would ultimately fail, but it didn't matter. The Conquerors' desperate resistance would make Team K's operation smoother.
"Your Majesty! Hold on a little longer! The midwife will be here soon. Breathe! Breathe deeply! Don't stop."
Diana was sent back to the palace with a pale face and beads of sweat the size of beans constantly running down her cheeks.
She gasped continuously under the instruction of the guards who had given birth to children beside her, leaning on her throne and enduring the waves of pain coming from her body.
What's even worse is that perhaps the explosion of divine power just now was too violent, she could feel her child's breath weakening. For a mother, this was more painful than killing her.
"The midwife is here! Anyone who has never given birth before, get out of the way! Quick!"
Ten seconds later, several midwives were dragged by palace guards into the chaotic throne room. Her Majesty the Queen felt relieved to see her savior coming, but the abdominal cramps became more severe and she almost fainted.
This was not an experience that could be resisted by relying on divine power, and giving birth to a child was also the first time for her.
Several midwives quickly took over the situation. They needed some quiet time so they asked the guards to leave the palace, leaving only a few trusted warriors to guard the queen.
At the moment when the defense force dropped to the lowest level in history and everyone's attention was attracted by Diana who was about to give birth, a black-haired midwife looked around, suddenly pulled out two sharp blades and stabbed them into the necks of the guards next to her on the left and right, and then quickly knocked down the people around her with dazzling assassination skills.
Even in this situation, the weak Diana remained brave.
She grabbed the crown at hand and threw it at the queen, but the queen easily dodged it. When she got close, she hit the queen hard in the stomach, making Diana scream in pain.
"Just be quiet! For the sake of your child, this proud mother wouldn't want her baby to die before he's even born, right?"
The skin of the assassin in front of him changed rapidly and soon revealed his true form. The blue skin was dotted with black spots, and his big eyes were full of cunning and viciousness.
She is the most powerful of all Mystique clones in the Conqueror No. 1 sequence. According to Utopia, she should be called "Supreme Mystique".
Moreover, she was able to quietly sneak into Diana's side to carry out assassination and hostage-taking. Her disguise ability is obviously better than that of "Thousand Faces", an A-level member of the Star Society.
She held the dagger against the pale queen's neck and whispered:
"I know you can still strangle me like this, but my advice is, think about your child... Hmm? Why don't you speak? Are you scared, Your Majesty?"
"No! You... there's someone behind you..."
"Bang"
