The surroundings fell silent for a moment.
The old woman, who had been screaming just moments ago, stared at Sara in horror and quickly closed her mouth.
"What's your name?" Stephen asked softly, gripping the woman's shoulders.
"Lilah," she replied in a trembling voice.
"Now you belong to me," Stephen chuckled as he looked at the old woman. "Any objections?"
The old woman shook her head rapidly.
"Do you want more money?" Stephen asked again.
Once again, the old woman shook her head.
Stephen smiled and led Lilah upstairs, his arms wrapped around her.
Upstairs?
"Wait, don't you want to leave?" Sara Lance asked, bewildered.
"Why would we leave? We don't need to pay for this place. Let's enjoy ourselves a bit," Stephen said definitively and headed straight upstairs.
"Damn it!"
Sara Lance couldn't help but curse. What the hell was this guy up to?
If you're going to rob someone in a brothel, why stay there? Did he not want to leave? Is he treating her as a thug and bodyguard? Sara Lance expressed her dissatisfaction to Diana, saying, "If I get the chance, I won't let him go, the bastard."
Diana silently nodded.
Unhappy and irritated, Sara Lance didn't dare to do anything against this guy. Who knows what he, the one who dared to enslave Paradise Island, would do in this era?
The second floor.
In a certain room.
Stephen released his grip on Lilah and casually glanced around the room. Lilah lowered her head nervously, too scared to move or speak.
Sara Lance and Diana followed behind.
"Haven't you found what you were looking for? What are you doing here?" Sara Lance asked uncomfortably and instinctively glanced at Lilah.
She had to admit that Lilah was very beautiful.
Though not finely dressed, her long legs, slender waist, ample curves, sun-kissed skin, and exquisite facial features exuded youthful charm. The turquoise eyes filled with fear and tension evoked pity. Sara Lance suddenly felt like she had narrowly escaped being taken away by Stephen to be a pillow. At least it would have been better than staying here and selling her body.
"Why the rush? Darling, come out of the corner and approach us," Stephen turned around and said to Lilah with a smirk. "And, why not take off your clothes?"
"Huh?" Lilah was stunned.
Diana, who had been concealed until now, couldn't help but say, "You can't humiliate women like this."
"Either she takes them off or you can take them off," Stephen replied.
"You decide."
Stephen smiled and watched Diana produce the lasso of truth.
Diana furrowed her brows but remained silent.
"Why so serious? Darling, take off your clothes," Stephen said again, looking at Lilah.
Lilah lowered her head and slowly removed her clothes one by one.
"Humph," Diana snorted and turned to leave. Sara Lance could only follow her.
After all, it wasn't just Stephen who would cause temporal disruptions in this era; there was also the Amazon princess Diana.
"Not bad," Stephen said, looking at Lilah with satisfaction. He walked over to a nearby closet filled with various clothing styles. Stephen picked out a few pieces and handed them to Lilah. "Put these on."
Lilah took the clothes and started getting dressed.
After a while, Stephen's expression of satisfaction grew stronger.
Lilah now wore black boots and stockings that resembled suspenders, a tuxedo-style white gauze dress that had a slightly revealing top, showcasing a hint of her breasts. Her hands were adorned with black silk gloves with intricate designs, and her raven hair flowed beautifully as she moved.
Stephen glanced around and suddenly tore off a small part of her dress near the leg. Lilah trembled in shock.
"Now it's even more pleasing to the eye."
"What... What am I supposed to do?" Lilah asked tentatively, her voice trembling.
Stephen walked over to the bed and sat down, looking at the timid Lilah. He asked, "Did you come here voluntarily or were you sold?"
"I was sold," Lilah replied.
"This is a chaotic era, and I love it." Stephen beckoned her to come closer with a chuckle, and Lilah obliged. He stroked her leg with a smile and asked, "Do you want revenge? For instance, burning down this brothel?"
"Huh?" Lilah was stunned once again. After a long pause, she answered firmly, "Yes."
"Then go ahead, my dear. I'm right here," Stephen smiled.
Lilah walked towards the nearby oil lamp with determination, as if she truly intended to set the brothel on fire.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud noise rang out, and the entire building shook violently.
Panic and screams ensued outside. The brothel's door was shattered, and flames spread rapidly. Panicked men and women poured out of the rooms into the hallway. Sara Lance and Diana pushed their way in, their voices filled with urgency. "Something's gone wrong. We've been discovered."
"Who discovered us?" Stephen casually inquired.
"Time bounty hunter Chronos!" Sarah Lance solemnly declared.
Due to Rip Hunter's betrayal, the Lord of Time grew furious and hired a time bounty hunter to track them down. The Legends team had planned to send Stephen back in order to escape the relentless pursuit of Chronos, but they hadn't expected him to catch up so quickly, specifically targeting Sara Lance.
"It seems someone has done your job for you," Stephen smiled and patted Lilah, who stood frozen in place.
Sara Lance and Diana noticed that Lilah had changed her clothes, making her even more beautiful than before.
"Do you want to know who Chronos is?" Stephen asked Sara Lance.
"I don't care. I just want to know what happened to the others and the Waverider," Sara Lance replied.
Chronos should have gone to find the Waverider first, but now he was here. What happened to the Waverider and the others?
"Just hold on tight, my dear," Stephen hugged Lilah and threw a punch at the wall facing the window. A large hole appeared instantly. Holding the startled Lilah, Stephen jumped out.
They landed gracefully.
Stephen lifted his foot and lightly stomped on the ground, causing the brothel behind them to collapse.
Rumbling...
The sound was deafening, accompanied by a cloud of dust.
Diana emerged from the ruins, guarding Sara Lance.
"We were still inside! You bastard!" Sara Lance yelled at Stephen.
Whoosh!
Right after her voice trailed off, a laser beam shot towards them.
Diana swiftly deflected it with her arm and faced Chronos, who stood not far away wearing armor, a mask, and wielding a laser gun.
In Greek mythology, Chronos was the god of time, but the Chronos before them was merely a bounty hunter created by the Lord of Time. The status and circumstances were vastly different. The only commonality was time.
And his true identity was even more intriguing—he was Heatwave, Mick Rory!
Yes, it was the Heatwave from the Legends team, Mick Rory, but this version hailed from another timeline.
