After half a lap, thea automatically slowed down her horse. Soon after she started, she saw that Diana''s equestrian skills were excellent. In addition, the horse she sat on was more than one grade better than her own. Racing with her was just abuse, and she didn''t need to be so sharp when she first arrived.
As she slowed down, Diana stopped slowly and began to introduce her to some landmarks. The total area of Paradise Island is quite large, but the central living area is much smaller. There are only some simple buildings, temples, sacrificial squares, martial arts training ground and the living area of soldiers.
Thea rode slowly all the way. All the women she saw were desperately training, javelin, fighting, and thea''s most familiar archery.
"Aren''t there any people engaged in production on your island?" she walked around and didn''t see any ordinary people farming or grazing. They were busy practicing martial arts. When relatives met, they broke their tendons, and when friends greeted, they hit shields. This way of daily communication, thea was cold and uncomfortable to see.
"Production? You mean animal husbandry? I''ve read Dr. Michelle''s paper on poultry breeding and professional feed written in 1915..." thea held her shoulders and listened to Diana''s long talk about how to reasonably breed chickens, ducks and geese and how to plan the site systematically and scientifically.
Hearing her black line, the girl was suffocated. She obviously had the potential of a scholar, but she was reincarnated in a place where people are simple and use their fists more than their brains.
It''s not appropriate to interrupt directly. Listen patiently. Diana barabara pulled a lot, from climate to water and soil to environmental factors, and finally made a summary: "the food on our island is provided by God, so it doesn''t take much effort at ordinary times!"
Well, thea''s face is a little twitching. The girl''s good point is that she has a simple mind, and the bad point is that she has no mind. She looks concave and convex. In fact, her psychological age is not young. No wonder she was fascinated by Steve Trevor in two or three times. Yes, a charming beauty was fascinated by a man, because she hasn''t seen a man at all!
The photos of Steve Trevor were seen by thea in the original time and space. Most of them were adventures on Paradise Island. Nearly a hundred years later, she was still a serious middle-aged man. She was still a little away from being handsome. At least thea felt that she was far less handsome than Tommy and Oliver. As the supreme leader of Tianyan Association, many people attack him openly or secretly every day.
For example, Amanda Waller and Lyra Michaels, who have concluded a goodwill treaty with thea and are quasi allies, speak ill of him when they have nothing to do, such as dictatorship, undemocratic, etc. thea has been more or less affected. Now it''s even more uncomfortable to think that such a white lotus has been gnawed by a pig.
She''s still a child. You can do it, too? Steve Trevor must die! Well, it can''t affect history. It''s the one who holds Diana away. Even if it happens, thea plans to harm him hard. Be sure to break it up!
Diana didn''t know that thea was thinking about her life events. Looking at her heavy face, she thought she was trying to think about her words about animal husbandry. She felt the joy of being valued for the first time in her life and happily took her to continue wandering.
......
The two women walked around the island all afternoon and finally rushed back to the residential area before dinner.
For those who are used to the effect of modern sound and light stage, looking at this sacrificial ceremony in an almost primitive style really has a different touch. The residents of the whole island participated in the bonfire party to prove that the gods are still paying attention to everyone. Thea was a little sad to see them singing ancient war songs and waving their limbs enthusiastically.
They are afraid that they also know that the gods have fallen, but there is still a trace of luck in their hearts. Now they get the exact news and can no longer suppress their inner excitement. This is a kind of redemption to regain their faith. There are many excitement and joy.
But in this grand celebration, there was still a trace of disharmony.
"Just over there, sitting on a stone chair, wearing red clothes."
"Artemis, that''s not good. She''s the Queen''s guest..."
A few messy voices came into thea''s ears. Red clothes? Thea doesn''t have to look around to know who she''s talking about. Within ten miles of the island, only herself is wearing red!
Sure enough, there are mental disabilities everywhere, and Paradise Island is not a paradise. Just when she thought that this was the weak chicken coming to pick things, a black tower like figure came to her and stood still. Her voice was not high, but her words were not friendly.
"Foreigners, don''t think today''s sacrifice is for you. It''s our tradition. Do you understand?" she was still a little pressed at first, but later her voice became louder and louder.
Who''s this? Thea squinted at the humanoid creature standing in front of her, which she would call a woman for the time being.
Oh, my God, it''s so scary! It was night. Although many torches were lit, the light was still bright and dark. At first, she didn''t find the man in front of thea. Until she spoke, she found a big living man standing. He was too dark!
But through the light of the fire, I found that she was not the kind of black on the African continent. After all, it seemed strange that a black man was mixed in a pile of white Amazon. He didn''t know whether he was born dark or sunburned the day after tomorrow. At night, his body still reflected oil light, revealing exaggerated muscles even in men.
The strong woman was followed by four or five women. When they saw thea''s eyes, they dodged and didn''t look at her.
"Are you?" thea never evades challenges. On the contrary, she has the courage to face any challenges, but she doesn''t want to be a shot in vain. She doesn''t believe that the person who provokes this fool to find fault has no political appeal in the dark.
It''s nothing more than the resentment accumulated during Hippolyte''s five thousand years of rule. Now she finds an outlet to attack the Queen''s political prestige by knocking herself down. Alas, thea sighs. Sure enough, human beings are the most complex animals. Whether they grow naturally or pinch in mud, they all have this smelly hair disease.
The black strong woman clenched her fist with one left hand and slapped her almost muscular chest, "I''m Artemis!"
Thea was stunned for a few seconds. "Ha ha - I''m so happy!"
Laughing, she was out of breath and pounded the stone table in front of her.
She didn''t want to annoy each other. She really couldn''t help it. Artemis is the legendary goddess of hunting and the moon. Although she is not as beautiful as Aphrodite, the goddess of love, she is also the first beauty in the Greek god system with beautiful women.
In the afternoon, Diana once talked about their tradition of giving someone in the ethnic group the name of a God, but thea really didn''t expect the name of the beautiful night goddess to be crowned on this black charcoal head.
