Chapter 1019 You Must Kill Diana?
Every step she took on the hillside made reality tremble. The Witch's Hour burned brighter than ever before, nourishing the primal power within Hecate and stripping it from the Earth of the main universe, as if the mountain itself was eager to please its new mistress and change itself for her fantasies.
Its former owners abandoned the mountain, leaving it to be neglected and forgotten by its believers. At one time, the inhabitants here believed it to be the highest mountain in the world. Grand myths and legends were passed down from generation to generation, and people could no longer find a more suitable place for their gods to reside.
This mountain peak was once the absolute boundary between the mortal world and the heavens, but now it was easily torn apart by the witch's mark, and the air on the mountain peak behind her rushed into the dazzling marble temple of Olympus.
If the gods hadn't abandoned their heavenly positions earlier and tried to escape the DC multiverse with the Essences, they would probably be leaping up now to defend their home, but things didn't go as planned.
When Papetua slaughtered all the gods in the Essence, the Olympian gods of those weaker parallel universes were reduced to ashes, but it is clear that the Olympian gods of the main universe were not included.
They scattered and escaped into various realms of death, trying to distance themselves from ultimate death—the deathly second sister of the Endless Family—and to maintain their state of death as much as possible to avoid the countless terrifying monsters in reality, such as Perpetua or the goddess of magic, Hecate. Even though they were fully aware of what was happening, they were filled with a deep-seated fear. Once upon a time, the Olympian gods roared and fearlessly expanded their territory in the barbaric era, but times have changed, and even gods decay, especially after some of them realized the truth about the DC multiverse constantly rebooting.
Without the protection of the gods, Olympus, with its once-inhabited palaces now empty and powerless, soon collapsed.
Hecate and the Void Hand. Together, they reconstruct this history, attempting to place it on the main timeline of the DC multiverse and then harden it into eternity.
Through Wonder Woman Diana Prince from the main universe, Hecate entered the origin of this place and twisted it wantonly, believing that he could perhaps turn the hatred in his heart into words so that she could devour the last pillar of magic—the collapsed pillar.
Are the Hand of the Void and Papetua philanthropists?
Obviously, it's impossible.
"Now this is getting interesting," Chen Tao thought to himself.
According to the information Circe provided him, if the goddess of magic, Hecate, were to enter the realm of the gods and seize their possessions—

If the source of all magic in the realm of the gods is there, then all magic will fall into Hecate's hands.
and then?
What good would this do for Perpetually, allowing her to escape from the Origin Wall? Hmm? Did the goddess of magic, Hecate, promise to help her escape from the Origin Wall? Does Perpetually trust her that much? If Hecate goes back on her word, what countermeasures does Perpetually have?
It seems not. What benefit would the Void Hand gain from this? This is even more unpredictable than Papetua. The Void Hand wants to devour this DC multiverse, but Chen Tao has yet to see it take any substantial action.
What benefits would the Void Hand gain from helping the Goddess of Magic?
Just thinking about these things made Chen Tao's good mood from just coaxing the witch Cersei melt away.
"So you must go to Olympus immediately. If you are fast enough, you may still make it. I've heard how powerful you are." Cersei was still saying that, but Chen Tao did not immediately set off as anxiously as he had expected after learning about the destination.
"If we are to stop the goddess of magic, Hecate, we must have the Dark Justice League," the witch Circe heard Batman Dragon say. "I need you to point out the location of the Dark Justice League to me first. After I rescue them all, we can then invade the Realm of the Gods and stop Hecate there."
"In such an emergency, you still want the entire Justice League Dark to be here? What's your obsession with that? Besides, I can't even find where the Justice League Dark is! It's like looking for a needle in a haystack!"
Chen Tao listened quietly to the other person, silently calculating in his mind. It was only natural that they had refused. He wouldn't argue for the time being. He pondered, and the longer he thought, the greater the interference he would cause the witch Circe.
Cersei gave him directions to investigate Olympus, but Chen Tao couldn't go there immediately.
For him, the history that transcends time can no longer be simply deduced from what happens in the present and what happened in the past.
Having just received a reminder from the witch Cersei, he has already inserted a beacon from upstream of the hypertime stream into the realm of the gods.
Therefore, it can be said that unless Hecate and the Hand of the Void have completely solidified the history of their invasion of Olympus, Chen Tao could appear at any point in time when they were invading Olympus, thereby changing history and stopping their actions.
Hecate's invasion of the realm of the gods is, for him, both something that has already happened and something that has yet to happen.
So he wasn't in a hurry. He had already achieved part of his goal, obtaining information about the Goddess of Magic's movements from Cersei. Next, he would continue to use Cersei as a tool to find the Dark Justice League members trapped by the Goddess of Magic. Diana could wait; Hecate was currently using her body, and it wasn't the first time Diana had lent her body to someone else—she was used to it.
"Wait a minute, before I go, I have to ask one more question: if I find Hecate, the goddess of magic who is controlling Diana's body, how should I stop her?"
Chen Tao said, "Hecate divided her power into five parts. One part is the magical Dorn, which Hecate controlled to destroy the goddess Ramokhunash, the guardian of the dead. Another part is in Black Orchid, which Hecate controlled to help her invade the Green of All Things. The Witchfire was controlled by Hecate and burned several members of the Sisterhood of Crafts to death. Another part belongs to Wonder Woman. The rest is what you, Cersei, possess."
Chen Tao said, "Strictly speaking, Hecate has already recovered four of the five powers. If we rely entirely on brute force, even I would find it difficult to capture Hecate in a place like the Realm of the Gods without causing any problems."
"It's not just unlikely, it's utterly impossible," said the witch Cersei.
Chen Tao offered the witch Circe a pie in the sky. He deliberately let her try to take the lead in their conversation, hoping to give Circe the illusion that she could control Batman Dragon and give him orders.
Don't think that this illusion will be easily seen through. The existence of the leader position will make many people overlook it. Only the more powerful people have the power to lead, not the other way around.
Once she gets this feeling, she will start to unconsciously express some of her thoughts, and Chen Tao will be able to decipher some information from them.
"If I try to strengthen Diana, will she be able to break free from Hecate's control on her own—"
Chen Tao said this on purpose, and then he heard the other person immediately interrupt him: "Impossible. If Diana could break free from his control, he would have done it long ago."
"Are you familiar with the origins of Hecate, the goddess of magic?" Cersei asked.
"She knew the source of magic, and was then deceived by all the ancient Greek gods; her former husband, Hades, betrayed her."
"More or less," said the witch Cersei. "Hecate was the first magical being, created from the light of the universe. It was the beginning of life, the first dream of the impossible."
Hecate began visiting Earth, the new center of the multiverse, in ancient times.
Observing humanity's growth, he would bestow upon them the gentle touch of his magic, surprising them with the possibilities contained in the world around them. As the human race grew, their beliefs became more refined, beginning to exhibit more rigorous forms. Her world thus presented a diverse array of new forms, from powerful councils of gods to temples, all possessing various mysteries and magic. You should already know the rest of the story: all the gods in the system wanted to gain the favor of the goddess of magic, Hecate, but she ultimately chose Hades.
"The Olympian gods once welcomed him as one of their own, even though Hecate's power far surpassed that of Zeus, the chief god. This continued for several generations. Then came the tragedy born of greed."
"But the most important part of her origin is that she is the source of all magic, so once the mark is placed on her by the goddess of magic, Hecate, she will be completely trapped."
"That's what the witch Cersei said."
"So how exactly do we stop Hecate? What do you mean? Explain it clearly."
Chen Tao was trying to get the witch Circe to talk. He could almost guess what she was going to say, but he wanted to give her room to perform.
The witch Circe took a deep breath. In her view, the moment of truth had finally arrived. If what she was about to say could gain Batman Dragon's approval, even if it was just as a last resort or a trial, it would be a good thing for Circe.
The worst-case scenario is that Batman Dragon turns on her on the spot, but Cersei knows that he needs her, and he can still find a way to make amends. So the risk is worth taking, and Cersei is prepared.
"I know this may be a bit cruel to you, but there's no use going around in circles. We only have one path left to take. Only by taking this path can magic survive, and only by taking this path can the DC multiverse survive."
This method is to make me kill Diana, right?
Witchfire is dead, Wonder Woman is dead, and Dora the Explorer, fighting a city alone, is finished. Black Orchid's body is destroyed by the counterattack of the Green of All Things. According to Cersei's script, next should be Hecate being killed by Batman's Dragon, Hecate's power dissipating, and only Cersei, the only surviving of the five Witch's Hour bearers, returning as the queen to fully inherit Hecate's legacy.
Hehe, you've written a pretty good script.
"You must kill Diana."
Chen Tao inwardly grimaced upon hearing this, then a worried expression appeared on his face.
"This is a decision that must be made. If you choose Wonder Woman or magic, not only will all the wizards die, but Wonder Woman will ultimately be doomed too. Stop pretending you have a choice—"
Chen Tao adjusted his facial expression.
But the witch Cersei continued, "I can't believe I'm pleading with you now for the greater good. Magic is..."
The fundamental power of all creation and faith in the multiverse, every aspect of existence is inextricably linked to him; you should be well aware of this. The entire Dark Justice League is understanding the importance of magic in its own way.
The witch Cersei sincerely said to Chen Tao, "To be honest, if I could, I would have gone into battle myself long ago, but my power comes from Hecate's blessing. If I were to appear on the field directly, she could destroy me with just a snap of her fingers."
"Now is not the time to be afraid. With Hecate around, this won't be easy. While all the power is sealed within Diana, a fatal blow at the right moment will trigger a magical reaction like a nuclear bomb."
"Only in this way can we have a chance to end Hecate's existence. There is no other choice. You must embark on the darkest path, for only he can lead to the light. If you really can't bring yourself to do it, why not think about that stupid question printed on a cheap shirt?"
What would Wonder Woman do?
Wonder Woman will punch you.
Chen Tao thought to himself silently, while also feeling a sense of being looked down upon and wanting to laugh.
He had already figured out how to trick the witch Cersei into bringing the entire Dark Justice League to him, and then quickly kick her away.
He wanted to exploit the witch's desire to possess Hecate's body and person, and try to make her do things she herself would not do.
Where is Zatana?
He asked Cersei, "I also want to try to save Diana."
He looked at the witch Cersei.
He seemed to have accepted the possibility of killing Wonder Woman.
He was just unwilling to give up and wanted to try to save her one more time.
The witch Cersei will definitely give him this chance.
She was arrogant and confident, even believing she could deceive a mage like Zatana. Zatana was indeed a skilled master of irony, but she was ultimately not Hecate's imprinter.
As long as Chen Tao persists.
The witch Circe would then bring Zatana to him.
Of course, Chen Tao was also aware that Cecilia's words were ambiguous.
She didn't mention the Hanged Man at all, at least not. But that didn't matter; she just had to wait for him to appear.
Cersei could no longer escape.
