Chapter 218 - Chapter 206: Paradise Island Found Me

"Ladies, this is where you're in the wrong."

"I'd say I've been plenty gentlemanly, but it seems you prefer stronger men. You prefer the feeling of being conquered, right?"

"What can I do?"

"I can only satisfy you then."

While talking casually, the spears slammed into Alex's bio-force field and bent out of shape.

Then Alex expanded his Psychic Domain, covering the entire Paradise Island while marking the women before him and the female archer in the distance.

Using them as targets for Psychic Storm.

An invisible wind swept through the lake area.

Psychic Storm had no effect on physical space, but it delivered a powerful impact to the spiritual light of those Amazons marked as targets.

One woman after another suddenly felt fear, tension, and panic for no reason.

Their convictions wavered. Their minds and wills weakened.

It was as if they were exposed to the gaze of a natural predator. Every one of them turned pale and their legs shook.

One after another, they collapsed onto the grass and could no longer stand.

At this moment, no matter what Alex wanted to do, they could neither resist nor dare to resist.

And for a long time to come, they would feel awe toward Alex.

This kind of psychological effect was harder to recover from than physical injuries, and its impact would last much longer.

At this time, Helena swam to shore from where she had fallen into the water.

She was not a target of Psychic Storm, so her eyes still held strong fighting spirit.

The "mermaid" climbed onto the shore, her wet hair sticking to her chest.

Helena loudly asked, "What did you do to my sisters?"

Alex said with a smile, "Nothing. I just made them quiet down for a while."

Helena looked at the nearby tribeswomen and found that they only looked a bit unwell and somewhat pale, with no obvious injuries.

She quietly relaxed a little.

Then she pressed her lips together, "Who are you?"

"How did you find Paradise Island?"

Ever since the man who took Diana away had accidentally entered Paradise Island years ago, no one had discovered it again.

Yet today, another stranger had landed on the island.

It was only natural for Helena to be nervous.

Alex stood with his hands behind his back and smiled.

"In many worlds, people call me the Conqueror."

"It wasn't me who found Paradise Island."

"Paradise Island found me."

Helena froze. From those few short sentences, she picked up a great deal of important information.

For example, "many worlds" in the first sentence.

That meant the man before her could travel between multiple worlds.

As an Amazon, Helena naturally knew that Earth was not the only world.

Beyond this world, there were many others.

Anyone capable of traveling among worlds was no ordinary person.

The next two sentences were even more thought-provoking.

It wasn't me who found Paradise Island.

Paradise Island found me.

'Why would Paradise Island find him?'

'Is some disaster about to happen?'

Although Helena still did not completely believe that Paradise Island would seek out the Conqueror before her, it seemed to be the most reasonable explanation.

If Paradise Island had not chosen him, even gods would have difficulty finding it.

Otherwise, Ares, the God of War, would have come to the island long ago.

He would not have waited until Diana left before ending up defeated by the Amazon princess.

Thinking of this, Helena still wasn't fully convinced, but she no longer dared to underestimate Alex.

Besides, this man had just left seven or eight of her sisters unable to stand.

A figure like this was not much different from a demigod like Diana.

"Honorable Conqueror, I apologize for our recklessness."

"Since you say Paradise Island found you, does that mean a disaster is about to befall Paradise Island?"

Helena asked cautiously.

Alex's expression turned serious and he nodded, "Yes."

"His gaze has already fallen upon this planet. His servants will soon arrive."

"An ancient enemy will once again set foot on this land. Yet clearly, the Amazons are not prepared."

"That may be the reason Paradise Island found me."

"Perhaps it believes the Amazons need a warning."

Helena parted her lips slightly, "His gaze has fallen upon this planet? Who is he?"

"Ancient enemy? Conqueror, who exactly are you talking about?"

Alex smiled faintly, "Perhaps that question would be more appropriate coming from your queen."

Helena quickly replied, "I overstepped."

"I'll take you to see the queen right away."

Alex coughed lightly, "That would be good. However, while Paradise Island has pleasant weather, I think it would be better if you put some clothes on."

"I'm not sure whether Amazons catch colds."

Helena paused.

Only then did she realize she wasn't wearing a single piece of clothing.

However, as an Amazon, she clearly wasn't like women outside the island who felt shy when exposed before a man's eyes.

Instead, she calmly put on her armor and battle gear.

At the same time, intentionally or not, she displayed the part of herself she was most proud of for Alex to see.

It was somewhat like an animal showing off the feature it considered its finest and most beautiful.

Alex couldn't understand it, but he fully supported the behavior and felt it would be even better if it could be promoted throughout the world and the multiverse.

After enjoying the view, Alex followed Helena away from the lake.

There were no cars on Paradise Island.

The Amazons only used horses for transportation.

Alex had never ridden a horse before and didn't want to embarrass himself, so he shared a horse with Helena.

The earlier "mermaids" set off with them as well.

After hearing the conversation between Alex and Helena, the women who had been "frightened" by Alex now had a strange change in attitude toward him.

Awe still made up most of it, but mixed into it was curiosity toward Alex as a man.

The Amazons were an extremely long-lived race, nearly immortal.

Among them, only a few had actually seen a creature called a "man."

Most had only heard stories or read about them in books.

As a result, during the trip to the Amazon queen's palace, Alex endured constant attention from the Amazons.

Fortunately, these Amazons matched his tastes.

Being watched by things he approved of was not too unpleasant.

After leaving the lake region, a barren plain appeared in Alex's field of view.

From a distance, he saw a structure built by the sea.

It looked like a fortress, but he knew it was the vault used to store one of the three Mother Boxes.

Before long, Steppenwolf would arrive and attempt to take the Mother Box.

———

A short while later, Alex and the others entered the Amazon settlement.

By the shore, he saw Amazons drying fishing nets.

These were the civilians of Paradise Island.

He didn't know whether they also possessed the trait of long life, but in terms of status, they were clearly below warriors like Helena.
