After coming out of that illusion, Diana quickly began searching for information related to Kahndaq.
She quickly pinpointed its exact location, then she immediately put down the work she was doing.
Next, she found a place without surveillance, summoned her equipment, and after changing, shot straight into the sky.
Above Kahndaq City at this moment, Black Adam stood suspended in the air before the giant statue of his son.
His figure attracted the attention of countless Kahndaqis below.
At this moment, they all looked up at the figure in the sky.
Some couldn't help but kneel in reverence, shouting, "God! Have you finally blessed Kahndaq again?"
Just then, someone looking through a telescope saw the lightning symbol on Black Adam's chest and realized it seemed to be the same as the symbol on the Defender statue.
Instantly, he exclaimed, "The Defender, he is the legendary hero of Kahndaq."
Hearing this, countless Kahndaqis who had grown up listening to this story fell into an unprecedented fervor.
The hero who, thousands of years ago, led the people of Kahndaq to overthrow the cruel rule of tyrants, it seems he has returned!
Below, a little girl of about ten years old looked up at Black Adam.
Around her neck hung an amulet shaped like three triangles stacked horizontally.
Her name was Adrianna Tomaz, and standing beside her was a boy two years older than her.
"Brother, is that person really the Defender?"
Hearing his sister's question, Karim slowly shook his head: "I don't know either."
At this moment, the American soldiers currently controlling Kahndaq had also assembled; four armed helicopters surrounded Black Adam from different directions.
Another fighter jet was on standby, and on the ground, fully armed soldiers quickly deployed, taking up various positions.
"Adrianna, hurry, we must leave here immediately."
Sensing that a major battle was about to erupt, Karim immediately grabbed his sister's hand and ran towards their home.
But Adrianna couldn't help but look back at the figure in the sky, and her hand unconsciously touched the amulet around her neck.
In her heart, she always felt that the amulet she had found seemed to have some mysterious connection with him.
At this time, the American military representative shouted to Black Adam through a loudspeaker: "No matter who you are, descend to the ground immediately, otherwise we will open fire!"
With powerful firepower as his backing, his heart was filled with confidence; even when facing a superhuman like Black Adam, he showed no weakness.
Unfortunately, Black Adam didn't understand his shouting, and even if he did, he wouldn't take such a threat to heart.
"Five thousand years have passed, is Kahndaq still being invaded?"
Seeing that these people were the same as the so-called Americans he had killed in the sealed land, Black Adam immediately understood the current situation.
"Lao Hute, I will protect everything you wished to protect."
At this moment, he slowly pulled off the black robe draped over him, fully revealing his true appearance.
Seeing his actions, an ominous premonition arose in the American commander's heart, and he immediately ordered: "Open fire, open fire quickly!"
Instantly, the Gatling heavy machine guns on the four helicopters immediately poured firepower on Black Adam.
However, the bullets, powerful enough to pierce steel plates, made a series of metallic clanging sounds when they hit him.
Seeing this, one of the pilots immediately fired two rockets at him!
But something that made their jaws drop happened: Black Adam simply caught the two rockets with ease!
Then, he turned them around, and the two rockets went straight back the way they came.
Seeing this situation, the commander on the ground shouted hoarsely: "Dodge, dodge quickly!"
The pilot desperately pulled the helicopter's joystick, narrowly avoiding the crisis of being blown up by his own rockets, but when he looked up, Black Adam had already appeared before him.
The next moment, Black Adam directly reached out and grabbed the helicopter's rotor.
With another forceful throw, the entire helicopter plummeted towards the desert outside the city.
The reason he didn't directly use his divine lightning was that he didn't want the wreckage of the helicopter to damage Kahndaq City; this was a promise he had just made to his deceased son.
The pilots of the other three helicopters, seeing such a situation, immediately prepared to flee.
But things weren't that easy; Black Adam easily caught up to them and dealt with them simply and brutally.
Looking at the armed personnel in the city, his eyes quickly locked onto targets, and streaks of electricity appeared around him.
Then, he reached out his hand downwards, and streaks of lightning, like spiritual snakes, quickly passed through the bodies of one soldier after another, taking their lives.
Just then, he suddenly felt a powerful divine energy approaching him rapidly.
He couldn't help but stop his actions and looked into the distance.
In a few breaths, Diana had already appeared before him.
"Who are you?"
Looking at this woman radiating powerful divine energy, Black Adam had no memory of her.
But he could be sure that she, like him, was someone who had received a divine blessing, and her strength was very great.
This couldn't help but make a trace of apprehension arise in his heart.
Athena was proficient in almost all languages of the world, so she naturally understood Black Adam's question, but she did not answer him.
Instead, she looked at the charred figures below in the city, burned by lightning.
Then she spoke directly in ancient Egyptian: "Teth-Adam, it seems you are indeed a bloodthirsty and evil person, just as the Wizard Shazam said."
Although Diana did not have a no-kill principle, she generally would not kill ordinary people; even for those who committed many evils, she would usually only use methods of control.
Facing Diana's accusation, Black Adam retorted: "Is there anything wrong with killing a group of invaders?"
Diana shook her head: "This is a war between ordinary humans. As someone blessed with divine power, even if you want to stop it, you shouldn't do so through such cruel slaughter!"
"Perhaps some of them did commit unforgivable sins, but not everyone should pay the price with their lives."
Hearing this, Black Adam's expression completely darkened: "You want to stop me? Then let's see if you have the strength!"
With that, he actively attacked Diana, and a great battle thus began.
