Chapter 402 Chapter Diana Prince, who has never seen a man

Paradise Island is a place of settlement given by the king of gods Zeus to the Amazons. The entire island is protected by Zeus's powerful divine power and hidden in heavy fog.

Strictly speaking, the Amazons had no direct relationship with Zeus; in the Olympian mythology, the Amazons only appeared as the background of the famous "Twelve Trials" of Hercules.

One of the tasks in the Twelve Trials was to seize the belt of Hippolyta, the Queen of the Amazons. There are two versions of this story. One says that Hippolyta was impressed by Hercules' heroism and offered the belt to him. The other says that Hercules took the belt by force and captured the queen, who he presented to another mythological hero, Theseus, the King of Athens.

Theseus and Hippolyta married and had a son, but not long after, Hippolyta was killed in the war between Athens and the Amazons; the queen's life story ended in tragedy.

In the original story, neither the Amazons nor Hippolyta herself had a direct connection with Zeus, except for a battle between them and Zeus' illegitimate son Hercules. In the hands of the DC Comics editor, Hippolyta had an affair with Zeus, and after several updates to the origin version, they simply hooked up and gave birth to Wonder Woman.

How should I put it? Maybe it’s because the LSP image of Zeus, the stallion god king, is too deeply rooted in people’s minds?

The editor's change greatly enhanced the origin of Wonder Woman, but it caused a lot of trouble for the writer in the virtual dimension.

After being rewritten by Quill Pen, within the framework of the big world, the old gods in DC comics are all incarnations of the true gods; they are a wisp of divine consciousness that the true gods deliberately separated from themselves in order to contact and understand the magical power of Hecate.

The problem is that gods can use their thoughts to create an avatar out of thin air, but the Amazons don't have that ability! Although these women are powerful in combat, they are not gods; haven't you seen in the myth that Hippolyta was killed by a spear?
So, how do we deal with the relationship between the DC Amazons and the mythological Amazons?

The writer hesitated for about three seconds and decided to learn from the successful experience of DC comics editors and start from Zeus's LSP attributes.

As the old saying goes, too many lice won't itch, right? The humans in the real dimension have already determined that you are an LSP, so you are an LSP; being able to hesitate for three more seconds is the greatest respect for His Majesty the God King.

However, the restriction on the quill pen was still there, and Lin You could not start writing directly on the true body of Zeus. Instead, he had to settle for the next best thing and start with the divine clone separated by Zeus to contact Hecate.

How did I write it at that time? The writer searched his mind for memories; there were so many words written that he could not remember clearly.

What I remember most clearly is the opening sentence: "Although it is only a wisp of divine consciousness, this clone seems to have completely retained the original's lustful nature and strong physical desires..."

With the first sentence as the foundation, the subsequent story development is logical; this clone saw Hippolyta and was deeply attracted by her beauty, so when Hippolyta died in battle, he secretly hid her body and soul, and secretly helped her to revive. Later, he helped Hippolyta gather the scattered Amazons, helped her to regain the throne, and gave her Paradise Island as a place to settle down.

Unfortunately, this "Zeus" was only a wisp of divine consciousness of the true God. Although he strengthened his own strength by learning Hecate's magic, he was ultimately not as powerful as the true God. The Paradise Island he gave and the protective measures around the island could only isolate humans in the agricultural era; when civilization entered the industrial era, the advancement of technology made it impossible for Paradise Island to remain absolutely hidden.

Although their numbers are small, outsiders do continue to set foot in this paradise.

The author here today is Lin You.

Stepping onto the snow-white beach of Paradise Island, Lin You looked around and saw a subtropical island landscape. It seems that in order to maintain the mystery of the Amazon tribe, the screenwriters have never explained the detailed location of Paradise Island, whether in the comics or in the adapted film and television dramas and animation works; it also left a huge mystery for Wonder Woman fans.

Later, when the Gal Gadot version of "Wonder Woman" was released, some fans made a serious analysis, saying that the hero and heroine drove a small boat to London and went straight into the Thames; judging from the voyage and time, Paradise Island should be in the North Sea and so on.

But even if we don't mention the lush vegetation on the screen, and the climate, clothing, and house structures that are clearly subtropical; the North Sea has been the territory of the Norse gods since mythological times. Why did Zeus go there to enclose land and keep mistresses and illegitimate daughters?
Do you have such a good relationship with Odin?
Furthermore, the pilot in the movie discovered information about poison gas in the Ottoman Empire, then stole a plane and escaped, and eventually crashed into Paradise Island at sea.

The simple biplanes of World War I could fly across the entire European continent, flying over the airspace of multiple hostile countries, avoiding interception by the air forces of the German Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, flying from the Black Sea coast to the North Sea, and diving into the deep sea far from the coast...

This range is almost catching up with the F16 - and that's the F16 with auxiliary fuel tanks.

With this in mind, it seems natural for the author to abandon this idea in the end.

The Paradise Island, rewritten by the quill pen, is located in the southern Aegean Sea. In this sea area with many islands, the sea routes are as complicated as a maze. In the classical era when technology was not well developed, it was not difficult to find a remote location with no shipping routes to hide an island.

Moreover, the Aegean Sea during World War I was the strategic channel and front-line base for the Allied Powers to attack the heartland of the Ottoman Empire. Temporary docks and airports were built on many islands. It is not difficult to understand why the male protagonist fled in a plane and broke into this sea in order to find a nearby Allied airport to land.

This kind of modification conforms to the mythological plot and takes into account the comics and movie plots. It is the modification method that the writer is best at and most satisfied with.

However, the writer's move to set foot on Paradise Island today is, to some extent, a "betrayal" of his past rewriting plan; if he achieves his goal on this trip, it will almost certainly overturn the established plot of the "Wonder Woman" movie.

This approach brings huge risks and uncertainties; because when the story of "Wonder Woman" is integrated into the larger world, it is rewritten based on the plot of the first movie.

Therefore, Lin You couldn't help feeling uneasy.

Just as the writer was standing still on the beach, a lively voice came from the end of the beach: "Who are you?"

The voice came from a woman, slightly magnetic but not crisp enough; it carried a kind of deliberately disguised majesty and intimidation - not the kind of disguise that a child pretends to be an adult, but more like a teenager pretending to be mature.

Lin You looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall and familiar figure walking out from the woods at the end of the beach, which made his eyes light up.

That was Diana Prince—Diana Prince who hadn’t met the leading man of the movie yet and who had never met a man before.
