It's a pity, however, that Superwoman was born at the twilight of the Old Gods.
Due to continuous wars, the Old Gods were severely weakened, unable even to maintain their faith.
During the period of coexistence between humans and gods, there were also some exceptionally talented individuals among humans, who were either warriors, sorcerers, or Inhumans.
These people with special abilities took advantage of the Old Gods' weakened state to seize their power and banished their divine souls to an eternally dark realm.
Later, the Queen heard that those humans had internal strife, seemingly fighting over the power of the Old Gods, and a sorcerer named "Zanzar" ultimately won.
She didn't know what happened after that.
Before her fall, Hera entrusted Lois to the Queen, warning her that if Ares ever broke free from his seal in the future, this child might be the only one capable of defeating him.
But now the Queen couldn't wait. After thousands of years, she had forgotten how terrifying Ares was, yet Dane's threat was imminent.
Moreover, the current World was generally peaceful, and Ares's power couldn't be significantly bolstered. Perhaps after defeating the invaders, he would be too weak to fight again?
At that point, they could figure out a way to re-seal him.
The Amazon Queen shared her plan with her second-in-command. Seeing that she was clearly determined, the subordinate had no choice but to follow her orders.
But what they didn't know was that their words and actions had been observed and heard by Zatanna's familiar from beginning to end.
"So this is the history of this World..." Diana mused with a hint of emotion.
Zeus actually lost, and the loyal Hera was forced by her son. This made Diana feel a sense of absurdity.
Even the Ares of their World wouldn't dare to be so audacious... would he?
Well, Diana lacked confidence in the Olympian Gods.
"What are you going to do?" Zatanna retracted her projection magic.
Dane thought for a moment: "We'll do nothing. I want to see what this Ares is made of, and..."
Diana mused, "You also possess Ares's divine power, so you have an interest in him?"
Dane didn't speak, just nodded slightly.
He felt a bit regretful. It seemed all the gods here were already gone, so he couldn't'shear' more 'wool.' He could only focus on Ares.
However, from what he heard, Zanzar's Power should have collected quite a bit of divine energy. He wondered if there would be any divine sparks or similar items on him.
This guy, he wondered if he was still causing trouble in the Syndicate or if he had already been captured by others.
The Outsider's plan had been disrupted, and now even the timeline was hard to determine, which was why he wanted to scout first.
If Zanzar hadn't been captured by the other members of the Syndicate, then he would currently be the strongest metahuman on this Planet.
At the Crime Syndicate's Base, Ultraman walked in with a displeased expression.
Inside the Base, Owlman was adjusting a system. He glanced at Ultraman and said, "You look unhappy. Let me guess..."
"Did Zanzar do something again?"
"He killed my opponent, mine!" Ultraman emphasized loudly, "And he absorbed that MotherFucker's abilities right in front of me."
Owlman stopped his work when he heard this. He seemed to have caught a hint of Ultraman's underlying meaning.
So he said with a half-smile, "What are you trying to say?"
"Zanzar, no, Alexander Luthor is getting stronger and stronger. He might already be stronger than me!"
Although he was reluctant to admit it, Ultraman had to reveal his weakness to win over the smartest man in the organization.
However, Owlman simply said, "Ultraman, why don't you make things clearer? We've been on the same side from the beginning, haven't we?"
Forming the Syndicate was Owlman's idea from the start. He first recruited Superwoman, then Ultraman.
As for Zanzar, in terms of joining order, he was actually quite late, even later than Ocean Master.
