"The goddess of hunting is also a deity I admire and worship. She is one of the three virgin goddesses. I greatly respect her, and she possesses formidable combat skills. But the reason I admire her, you probably wouldn't guess!" Chris pulled out a bottle of wine and took a sip, looking at Antiope, who exuded a mature aura. "Care for a sip?"

Antiope snorted and took out her own bottle of wine, taking a sip. "No need, I have my own. So, tell me, why do you admire the goddess of hunting?"

Antiope's interest was indeed stirred by this point. The Amazons do worship the goddess of hunting, as their style and attire are quite similar.

"First of all, I'm a merchant on the outside. I enjoy selecting my prey and planning the hunt accordingly. I come up with strategies and follow them step by step to acquire what I desire. Having ideas and plans is what leads to success. I believe the goddess of hunting is the same way. Hunting requires not only skills but also intelligence. By the way, you are also a smart and beautiful woman, just like her." Chris said with a smile, complimenting Antiope at the end.

A smile played on the corners of Antiope's mouth, "I bet you've deceived quite a few women with that line."

"No, quite the opposite. It's true that many women are attracted to me, and I'm not bragging about it. However, I rarely engage with those who admire me. I find it unnecessary and it goes against my principles and code of conduct. Being a person requires having principles!" Chris' expression was serious, devoid of any playful demeanor.

It seemed like he was truly discussing a serious matter. And for those didn't know about the harem he established on his Goddness Island with dozens of women, they might actually be fooled by this shameless actor!

Wonder Woman, Diana, appeared without anyone noticing and happened to hear Chris' remarks. She found it intriguing, "What are your principles then?"

Chris nodded in acknowledgment towards Diana. "My principles are simple: to take responsibility for my actions! If a relationship happens, I make sure to be accountable. That's why I don't look for other women."

"It seems you are a principled person. Alright, are you ready? We need to move to the next location. Diana, is there something you wanted to discuss?" Antiope asked, not wanting this guy to talk too much.

"Yes, the boundary in the southeast has become unstable recently. I wanted him to take a look and see if he can stabilize it," Diana replied, glancing at Chris and furrowing her brow.

Antiope frowned. "Then let's go and have a look now."

After twenty minutes, the group quickly arrived at the coastline. The sea mist had already dissipated significantly, and they could vaguely see the outside world. It seemed like a serious situation.

Queen Hippolyta was also present, looking somewhat worried. "You, hurry up and fix the magic barrier, or I'll kill you!"

"But you have to give me some time to study the books and observe the magic barrier, my beautiful queen!" Chris shrugged helplessly. Soon, Amazonian warriors brought him ancient books one after another.

Chris checked the magical barrier while reading a book. The barrier here was severely damaged, almost on the brink of collapse.

"To repair the barrier, I need five billion CP. Temporarily patching it up requires fifty thousand CP, which can sustain it for three days!"

Chris frowned upon seeing the price and was promptly noticed by Antiope. "Is it difficult?" she asked.

"I can repair the barrier, but I need to finish reading the books first. There are many things here that I need to reorganize. However, I can patch up the barrier for now, and it should hold for three days. Also, repairing the barrier requires a lot of materials. Some of them I dare not mention, fearing you might kill me." Chris said, lowering his head.

"What materials?" Antiope asked with confusion, wondering what it could be.

"It's a mixture of pheromones from both men and women. It's a magical secret I discovered in a book about the goddess of love. Originally used for arousal, but when applied to magic circles and barriers, it can expedite their repair." Chris replied earnestly.

"You're talking nonsense! How could it need such absurd things?" Antiope exploded, finding it incredulous that such a thing would be considered a material.

Of course, this was not an actual material; it was just a ploy by Chris. He wanted to openly propose a mating request and link it to the life and death of Themyscira, making it impossible for anyone to accuse him!!!
