This was the first time Zhang Lin had ever seen a nuclear bomb in his life.
Although the yield of 30,000 tons is not very large according to the data, and it is considered obsolete in various countries, it is indeed very impressive that the city lord could obtain a nuclear bomb with a yield of 30,000 tons.
This is the real killer weapon!
Zhang Lin couldn't resist moving closer and standing on tiptoe to take a closer look. Men are powerless against this kind of weapon. If he had the firing button in his hand right now, he would definitely find a place to put this thing out and hear the sound.
"Stop looking, we're here to inspect the passageway!"
The city lord tugged at him, pulling him away from the powerful weapon, and the two of them came together to the door that stood in the empty hall.
Zhang Lin looked at the door, which was pure blue all over, somewhat like the material of jade, but it was not jadeite, but rather the smooth texture of white marble.
The door was closed at that moment.
The city lord walked over, first carefully inspecting the door frame, and then circling the door several times. "Something's not right, there's no sign that the passage has been opened!"
Zhang Lin followed, but unlike the city lord, he didn't go in to observe the passage, because he knew nothing about it and it would be pointless for him to look.
When alone with Zhang Lin, the city lord still wore a mask to cover his face, probably because he didn't want Zhang Lin to see his ugly, mechanical appearance.
Moreover, she is now completely mechanized and unable to show any expression, but Zhang Lin could tell from her tone of voice that she was very uneasy.
The city lord was indeed very uneasy.
As far as she knew, there was only one passage between the divine realm and the human world, but now the gods were still able to reach the human world without using this passage.
This means that the gods have access to a passage she was unaware of.
If this is the only passage, then with the nuclear weapons here, she might be able to deter the gods and prevent them from entering the mortal realm rashly.
Furthermore, even if the gods were truly determined to invade the human world, she could detect it in advance and then use nuclear weapons to delay their entry into the human world, giving her enough time to lead humans from other places to hide and avoid being killed by the gods.
But what if the gods have access to other passages...?
The assassination attempt on her will definitely happen again. At that time, she won't even have time to detonate the nuclear bomb, and the gods will be able to exterminate humanity with ease.
Not to mention the city lord himself, Zhang Lin also faces this threat.
The gods are very powerful; even the weakest god could easily kill Zhang Lin. What Zhang Lin currently holds is nothing more than the God-Slaying Token in his hand.
If the gods had chosen to ambush him in secret... he might not have even had time to use the God-Slaying Token.
We're in danger!
The city lord turned around and said to Zhang Lin, "We must find other entrances, otherwise we may be assassinated by the gods at any time!"
"How do we find it?" Zhang Lin asked.
The city lord was at a loss for words.
She didn't know how to find other passages; this passage was something she had discovered by chance during her long life...
The passageway cannot be moved, so she chose to build a city here so that she could keep an eye on it at all times.
Searching for other routes...
She didn't know how to find it either.
"..." Upon seeing her appearance, Zhang Lin looked to Bai Wen and said, "Don't rush. You take a good look at this passage first, and then we'll look for the others. Let's take it one step at a time."
Instead, he comforted the city lord.
Zhang Lin doesn't have many strengths, but a good mindset is definitely one of them. He is also very pessimistic about the future, but he won't remain pessimistic forever. Give him a few minutes, and he can adjust his mindset.
In this respect, although the city lord lived a long time, his mentality was not as good as Zhang Lin's.
She was mostly calm and composed, as if nothing could affect her. But this was based on the premise that she had lived a long life and seen a lot. Many things that seemed like the end of the world to others had happened to the city lord many times, which is why she could remain so calm.
However, when something happens that she cannot control or that she has never experienced before, her mindset is not as good as Zhang Lin's.
The thought that there were other passages in other places, that she and Zhang Lin could die at any moment, and that humanity could be wiped out at any moment, immediately made her heart clench. The immense pressure almost crushed her.
In the past, she had to bear all the pressure alone, and no one could help her share it. Fortunately, she lived a long life and experienced many things, so the pressure was not so great.
But this time was different; Zhang Lin was by her side.
Zhang Lin's words weren't exactly comforting, but the city lord felt as if he had found someone to rely on, and the pressure immediately lessened.
The same words can have different effects depending on who says them.
The weak said that the city lord would not be comforted at all, but would instead feel annoyed, because the weak could not offer her any help.
But Zhang Lin said that would make things much easier for the city lord.
Because Zhang Lin is now stronger than her.
As the saying goes, if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up.
She used to be the tallest, and she had to shoulder everything.
Now, Zhang Lin is the tall one.
Someone else took the blame for her.
"Yes, you're right. My anxiety won't help." The city lord nodded. "Let's do as you say. We'll check this passage first, and then look for other passages. We'll take it one step at a time!"
“That’s right.” Zhang Lin nodded, then asked, “Can you make me a billboard facing this door?”
"Billboard?" The city lord looked at him in confusion.
“Yes, billboards. Your idea of threatening the gods with nuclear bombs is correct. These gods are very afraid of death and don’t want to take any risks. But besides nuclear bombs, I want to use something else to intimidate the gods.” Zhang Lin said, taking out the token from his spatial ring.
"Print the complete image of this token on the billboard, and then add a line of text facing this door."
“Okay!” The city lord didn’t know what Zhang Lin meant, but she did as he said. She had all kinds of technological equipment here, and she quickly made an advertising board and took it down.
Zhang Lin placed the billboard opposite the door.
The billboard displayed a high-resolution photo of the God-Slaying Token, perfectly replicating every detail, even the faded look of it having been used twice.
The gods could tell at a glance that the token only had one chance to be used.
Below the photo of the token is a line of text: Only one chance left. Whoever comes first dies!
Zhang Lin had no intention of concealing the remaining uses of the God-Slaying Token.
He was making it clear to the gods who were about to emerge.
This is a one-time opportunity to slay a god. Whoever dares to be the first to come to the mortal realm will die!
