Chapter 5159-5162 [The Only Solution]

While Diana and Ares were locked in a standoff, Xiang Nan, Charlie, the Chief, and Samir had already infiltrated the German forces and gathered a considerable amount of information.

First, the Germans had indeed stored a large number of poison gas bombs at the airport; second, the Germans loaded a large number of poison gas bombs onto their bombers; and third, the Germans' target for bombing was London, England.

“We must destroy those poison gas bombs, and we must destroy this plane. Otherwise, if it really bombs London, too many people will die,” Xiang Nan said to the chief, Charlie, and Samir.

At the beginning of the 20th century, London already had a population of five million and was the world's political and financial center.

If London were to be bombed with poison gas, the death toll could very well exceed one million. And among the dead would be members of the royal family, nobility, and elites.

It could be said that if London were bombed, it would be tantamount to the destruction of Britain's central nervous system. At that point, the entire country would be paralyzed, and the Anglo-French alliance would be severely affected.

At that time, the German army might launch a fierce attack on the British and French Allied forces using mustard gas. This gas is extremely potent, and existing gas masks would be completely ineffective.

Therefore, the Anglo-French forces were bound to suffer heavy casualties and be forced to retreat. Meanwhile, the morale of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire would be greatly boosted, thus tilting the tide of the war.

The victory would shift from the Allied Powers, such as Britain and France, to a victory for Germany, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire. This would significantly alter the global landscape.

So they had to destroy the plane, and they also had to destroy the remaining poison gas bombs.

……

No sooner had Xiang Nan finished speaking than the tower exploded.

Diana was thrown back by Ares and crashed heavily to the ground.

However, she was not discouraged and continued to attack Ares.

Ares unleashed his divine power, and the boxes piled on the ground rained down on Diana.

Despite her strong defenses, which prevented her from being injured even when hit, the barrage of boxes still made it difficult for her to move.

Seeing this, Diana threw out the Lasso of Truth, intending to lasso Ares.

But when Ares unleashed his divine power, a fierce wind arose, causing the Lasso of Truth to twist and turn wildly, making it impossible for it to get close to Ares.

“My dear, you still have a lot to learn,” Ares said dismissively.

Before this true god, Diana, this demigod, was like a toddler just learning to walk.

Seeing this, Diana quickly changed direction, threw out the Lasso of Truth, tied it to a box, and then swung it forcefully, throwing the box toward Ares.

Ares leaped into the air, dodging the box's attack.

The box fell to the ground, causing a huge explosion. Flames shot into the sky, illuminating half of the airport as if it were daytime.

Diana then charged at Ares again.

Seeing this, Ares continued to unleash his divine power.

The ground beneath Diana's feet began to collapse, forcing her to speed up. Otherwise, she could easily fall into the ground.

Seeing that Diana still refused to give in, Ares swung his arms and moved a block of earth the size of half a football field out of thin air.

Immediately afterwards, he remotely controlled the massive earthen mound, which slammed down hard on Diana.

……

"My God!" Charlie, the chief, and Samir all witnessed this scene and were immediately stunned. "What should we do?"

It was the first time they had ever seen someone flying in the sky, and the first time they had ever seen such a huge mound of earth floating in mid-air. These scenes completely overturned their understanding of the world.

“If that really is Ares, the God of War, then there’s nothing we can do,” Xiang Nan said. “All we can do is destroy these poison gas bombs and planes.”

“If we can find the radio transmitter, we can contact the air formation and shoot it down,” Samir suggested.

“No, even if the plane crashes, the area within a fifty-mile radius will likely be completely barren,” Xiang Nan said, waving his hand. “We can’t let it take off.” “But those poison gas bombs are equipped with timers. Even if it doesn’t fly, it will automatically explode when the time is up,” the chief said to Xiang Nan.

"There's no other way. It seems there's only one way that will work," Xiang Nan decided. "You cover me while I board that plane."

"What, Steve, no way!" Samir immediately stopped him.

“I have to go, there’s no other way,” Xiang Nan said, and then ran toward the plane.

Samir, the chief, and Charlie cleared a path for him, blocking those who tried to stop him.

Just then, Diana was choked by Ares and slammed heavily to the ground, landing right in the direction Xiang Nan was heading.

"Diana~" Xiang Nan helped her up from the ground. "Listen to me, I have to go. Goodbye! Keep this watch as a memento. I wish we had more time together. I love you!"

After saying that, Xiang Nan rushed towards the plane.

German troops along the way tried to stop Xiang Nan, but they were all killed by Charlie, the chief, and Samir, allowing Xiang Nan to board the plane smoothly.

He then punched the pilot to the ground, and then started the plane and took off.

……

When Diana saw Xiang Nan piloting a plane loaded with poison gas towards the sky, she immediately knew he was going to detonate the gas at high altitude.

This would prevent the poisonous gas from leaking out and harming life on the surface. However, Xiang Nan would certainly not survive this.

This caused her immense grief, "No!"

"Diana, promise me you'll stand by my side, or I'll kill you!" Just as she was heartbroken, Ares flew in front of her and threatened her.

“I will never, ever stand with you,” Diana firmly refused.

"Then go die." Ares delivered a heavy punch, sending Diana flying once again.

She crashed violently into the tank, causing it to roll over. This demonstrates the immense force of the impact.

"With your meager skills, how could you possibly kill me?" Ares sneered, then with a wave of his hands, the tank tracks were removed and tightly wrapped around Diana.

Diana was immediately choked and couldn't breathe, and her bones made a creaking sound.

Even with her high level of defense, she still faces the risk of being shattered to pieces at this moment.

Meanwhile, the chief, Charlie, and Samir are dealing with the remaining poison gas bombs.

They dropped bombs into the warehouse where poison gas was stored, causing a violent explosion.

The toxic gas that was emitted was engulfed by the flames of the explosion, so it did not cause a large-scale leak.

However, the three of them were also heavily surrounded by German troops and were caught in a fierce battle.

“I’m out of bullets, Chief, do you have any more?” Charlie asked.

This time, he didn't suffer from PTSD again, and instead took down the German soldiers one by one with each shot, living up to his reputation as a sharpshooter.

But now that he's run out of bullets, even the most skilled cook can't cook without rice.

“I have nothing left either,” Samir said regretfully.

“It seems we have no choice but to sacrifice ourselves here,” Charlie laughed. “But I’m glad we’ve accomplished our mission.”

"Yes, and he died alongside his comrades," the chief nodded.

“Guys, it’s an honor to fight alongside you,” Samir said. The three of them smiled at each other and hugged tightly.
