Although it was empty, and all the water it originally contained had been drained, the weight of the water tank was still astonishing.
Green Arrow's arrow penetrated the supporting metal frame, and the unbalanced water tank immediately crashed towards Eric's direction.
Seeing his battle plan succeed, Green Arrow's eyes showed an expression of joy.
But Eric, who was under the water tank, did not dodge, but merely glanced coldly at Green Arrow, then took a step forward.
Eric easily dodged the water tank crashing down from above, then grabbed Green Arrow and stared into his eyes.
"You thought you could fool my eyes with such a clumsy trick?"
Eric snorted coldly and threw the opponent heavily to the ground.
Green Arrow, whose entire body felt like it was falling apart, struggled to lift his gaze and saw dangerous orange-red light emanating from Eric's eyes.
It was about to shoot towards him in the next second.
"Wait!"
Just as Eric was about to act, a familiar voice came from behind him.
He turned his head and saw that Wonder Woman had returned to the battlefield at some point.
Dragging her weary body, Diana said to Eric, "Don't do that yet!"
"Diana?!"
Eric looked at the suddenly appearing Wonder Woman, frowned, and asked her, "Didn't I tell you to rest in the hospital?"
"You know I'm not one to sit still."
Wonder Woman shrugged at Eric and said, "To let you fight here at a critical moment while I lie in a hospital bed resting, for me, as an Amazon warrior, is something I can never accept."
As she spoke, she walked towards Eric, looked at Green Arrow lying on the ground, breathing heavily, and said, "Don't kill him yet, he's useful to us. We can follow him to find the organizations behind him. He wouldn't be acting alone."
"You can leave him to me."
Wonder Woman smiled slightly at Eric.
"I remember you weren't concerned about these things before."
Eric said to her with a frown.
"People always change, and if it can help you, of course, I'm happy to make such changes."
Wonder Woman looked at Green Arrow, who was lying on the ground, with a somewhat complex expression, then looked at the others—Death, Nightwing, and Black Canary—and said to Eric, "Besides, I'm not human like you. I am an Amazon! I'm more prone to change."
After saying a word to Eric, she walked towards Green Arrow, grabbed him by his collar, and lifted him up.
"The rest is up to you, Kyle. It's not easy to re-detain these metahuman criminals."
With that, she grabbed Green Arrow and prepared to leave, and used the Lasso of Truth at her waist to tie up Death and the others, preparing to take them all back.
"Wait!"
Before Wonder Woman left, Eric called out to her.
"What? Is there something else?"
Wonder Woman smiled slightly at Eric and asked him.
"No."
He had no other instructions, he just felt that the Wonder Woman in front of him gave him an unexplainable sense of strangeness.
It seemed his Diana had become somewhat different from before.
There was no concrete evidence for this, it was just a strange feeling.
After a moment of silence, Eric walked towards Wonder Woman and said, "I want to give you something."
"What is it?"
Wonder Woman asked with interest.
"Fire!"
Wonder Woman: "?!"
As soon as Eric's words fell, Heat Vision shot from his eyes, sweeping towards Wonder Woman.
The Heat Vision was not at maximum power, only releasing flames that swept towards the other party's body.
The flames, which should not have caused much damage to a demigod's body, actually made Wonder Woman turn pale with fright.
With a look of horror on her face, Wonder Woman took half a step back, looking at her body burning with fire, and let out a painful scream.
"Ah ah ah ah!"
Wonder Woman's screams startled everyone around her.
Nightwing, Death, and Black Canary retreated in horror, watching Wonder Woman burning and wailing in the flames.
Mera had recovered, and her injuries had healed somewhat. Looking at Wonder Woman wailing in the flames, she looked at the expressionless Eric with surprise, wondering why Eric would attack Wonder Woman.
Did something happen between the two of them?
Wonder Woman was in extreme pain from the flames and immediately rolled on the ground, trying to put out the fire.
The fire gradually diminished as she rolled.
Eric watched Wonder Woman rolling on the ground, he didn't stop her from extinguishing the fire, but looked at her coldly and said, "It seems your disguise didn't work, General Swanwick."
"Or, I should call you Martian Manhunter."
