Chapter 027 Fully Armed

Faced with Wang Bo's question, Diana retorted, "Why would she oppose it?"

Wang Bo was speechless.

Only then did he remember that Diana was no longer the novice she once was; she had become very powerful, able to wield the power of Zeus.

Moreover, she had a powerful warrior like Wang Bo by her side. Perhaps in Hippolyta's view, the two of them together were enough to defeat Ares, so naturally she would not object.

"Alright then, when do we set off?"

"We'll leave immediately after seeing my mother."

Diana led Wang Bo to the conference hall of Themyscira. Hippolyta sat on the throne, nodding slightly at Wang Bo and Diana as they entered.

"You're here."

"I am ready, Mother." Diana had the Sword of Hephaestus and the Aegis strapped to her back, looking valiant and resolute, her gaze unwavering, unmoved by anything.

Hippolyta looked at her daughter, her eyes full of emotion. Back then, to fight Ares, she had willingly given herself to Zeus and given birth to a demigod.

Later, overcome by maternal instinct, she had tried every means to stop Diana from facing the dangerous Zeus. But who could have predicted that, as things change, Diana would ultimately embark on the path to confront Ares? Was this fate?

"You've grown up, Diana," said Hippolyta. "But you must be careful. Ares is a very powerful god, far more powerful than you imagine."

Diana replied, "I know that, Mother, but please trust us. We will surely defeat Ares. Justice will triumph over evil."

Hippolyta turned to look at Wang Bo. "Young man, I entrust my daughter to you. Please protect her well. This is a mother's request."

Wang Bo nodded. "Rest assured, Your Majesty."

Hippolyta closed her eyes and waved her hand.

Diana said softly, "I'm off."

With that, she led Wang Bo out of the conference room. At the entrance, Diana stopped and asked, "So, where do we go to find Ares? The front lines of the war?"

"Of course not. We're going to London."

"London?" Diana, who had traveled across the world, certainly knew what London was. "Why there? Is Ares there?"

"Yes." Wang Bo nodded. Having seen the story, he knew that Ares was currently in London, having transformed from a god into the spokesman for the Imperial War Cabinet... Sir Patrick Morgan.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Diana said. "Let's head to London immediately and stop Ares."

"Alright." Wang Bo took Diana's hand, and with a teleport, they left Themyscira.

The next second, they appeared in a small alley in London.

London during World War I was an industrial city.

The air quality was appallingly bad, completely different from the London of the future.

As soon as Wang Bo arrived, he could see black particles floating everywhere in the sky—all industrial waste, heavily polluting the environment.

"This place is terrible." Diana, accustomed to the scenery of Themyscira, couldn't help covering her nose at the sight of industrial London. Fortunately, the divine power within her circulated and quickly expelled all the foul substances.

Wang Bo said nonchalantly, "This is what most places look like in the industrial age."

Diana shot him a glare and asked, "Where do we find Ares now?"

Wang Bo told Diana that Ares was currently disguised as a man named Patrick, but before finding Ares, they had to be fully prepared.

Diana said, "I am ready now."

"But I'm not." Wang Bo pulled a Resurrection Stone from his four-dimensional pocket and handed it to Diana.

"What is this?" Diana took the Resurrection Stone; her intuition told her this item must be very precious, and she could feel the powerful magic contained within the stone.

"A Resurrection Stone," Wang Bo said simply. "Absorbing it will allow you to revive three times."

"You mean, revive."

"That's right. Absorb it quickly."

"This is precious." Diana was no fool; she knew the importance of the Resurrection Stone.

"It's precious to you, but to me, it's nothing." Wang Bo took out several Resurrection Stones and showed them to Diana.

Diana: ...

In the end, urged by Wang Bo, Diana absorbed the Resurrection Stone.

"Remember, this thing can revive you three times. As long as you aren't killed more than three times in a row, you won't die, and the number of revives can be restored. After a few days, it will automatically replenish."

"It lets you take risks, but never too many risks, understand?"

Diana nodded.

Then, Wang Bo took out a replica of the Horse Talisman from his four-dimensional pocket and handed it to Diana.

"What's this?"

"The Horse Talisman, a talisman with healing power. As long as you aren't killed, no matter what injury, it can heal. Tuck it into your clothes, best kept close to your body," Wang Bo said.

"You have several of these?"

"That's right."

Diana unceremoniously placed the Horse Talisman on her body and said confidently, "I'm getting more and more confident about killing Ares now. Do you have any other good stuff?"

"Yes!" Wang Bo took out a replica crystal of the Magic Beans and handed it to Diana. "This can summon heavenly soldiers to help you block enemies."

Diana: "..."

I was just asking casually; I didn't expect you actually had one.

But she still absorbed the Magic Beans, and feeling the extra information in her mind and the method of using them, Diana grew even more excited.

"Ares is doomed."

"If you have any other strange things, bring them all out. I won't be surprised anymore."

Wang Bo thought for a moment, then took out Gungnir and handed it to Diana.

"Gungnir, the weapon used by Odin in Norse mythology. This is far better than your Sword of Hephaestus; that thing is no match for Ares."

Wang Bo hadn't forgotten that Diana, wielding the Sword of Hephaestus, was easily defeated by Ares without even scratching him.

"Don't tell me you don't know how to use this weapon."

"How could that be!" Diana heeded Wang Bo's advice, put away the Sword of Hephaestus, and replaced it with Gungnir. "An Amazon warrior never fails to know how to use a weapon."
