The city lord roughly understood Zhang Lin's thoughts and knew that he was very wary of him, which made him slightly unhappy. "I didn't even mention your fire-breathing incident, yet you still treat me like this?"
"Zhang Lin, what do you mean?"
He couldn't help but ask.
"What are you saying, City Lord?" Zhang Lin looked like he didn't understand.
"When you fought the centipede alone, everyone was watching. Do you think you could guard against everyone?" the city lord snorted in dissatisfaction. "Or are you only targeting me?"
Zhang Lin was obviously only targeting him.
Even if others see it, what can they do?
At this stage, what can anyone do about it?
However, the city lord is different.
He was too mysterious, which made Zhang Lin more wary.
"Lord of the city, you're joking. How could I possibly target you?" Zhang Lin said, making his meaningless statement clear.
The city lord was also helpless.
Zhang Lin's wariness was justified; he was indeed very curious about Zhang Lin's awakening of the extraordinary template before the New Era.
If possible, he would like to acquire this method himself.
In this way, if the world were to restart again, he would be able to cultivate many experts before the new era.
However, the city lord is not the kind of person who would stop at nothing to do things.
He preferred to obtain the secret from Zhang Lin peacefully rather than by force.
But judging from Zhang Lin's wariness of him now, the city lord knew that this was almost impossible.
"You don't need to be wary of me, I won't harm you." The city lord said helplessly, but when he looked at Zhang Lin, he saw a disbelieving expression on his face, and he was so angry that his mouth almost twisted.
Zhang Lin and the city lord returned together to the center of Hope City.
As he walked through the crowd, everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhang Lin, remaining silent.
That scene was so shocking.
The thousand-legged corpse that had filled everyone with dread was killed by Zhang Lin's breath of fire.
Everyone was stunned at the time.
At that moment, the battlefield seemed to fall silent, completely still.
This was before the new era!
Zhang Lin clearly displayed his true extraordinary power, instantly killing the Thousand-Legged Corpse with a single move.
What does this represent?
Exceptional templates!
If it were after the new era, no one would be so surprised.
But during this period, Zhang Lin awakened the extraordinary template, which was beyond everyone's imagination.
Anyone with a discerning eye would recognize that Zhang Lin had awakened a transcendent template.
But what's the point?
In Hope City, besides the city lord, who would dare to make a move against Zhang Lin?
How can someone kill a centipede but not an ordinary person like myself?
If the city lord were to raise his voice now and declare that he would capture Zhang Lin and interrogate him about the secrets of the extraordinary template, perhaps some people would still dare to make a move.
But the city lord clearly didn't have this idea.
"What are you looking at? Get your hands dirty and clear out the zombies!" The city lord snapped, annoyed that everyone's eyes were following Zhang Lin. "How can you sleep at night if you don't clear out all the zombies in the city?"
Immediately, everyone scattered and joined forces with people they knew to clear out the zombies from various places.
The zombie army summoned by the four zombie kings numbered at least tens of thousands, and they could not be killed off completely. Fortunately, they did not need to be killed off now. Without the zombie kings' leadership, the walls of Hope City were enough to stop most of the zombies.
As long as the zombies in the city are cleared out quickly and the damaged walls are repaired, everyone should be able to get a good night's sleep tonight.
"Zhang Lin, I think we need to have a talk." With the crisis resolved, the city lord was naturally too lazy to take action, so he invited Zhang Lin to the city lord's mansion for a talk. He felt that there was a crisis of trust between him and Zhang Lin.
"Sorry, I won't be able to sleep tonight until all the zombies in the city are cleared out. I'll go and clear them out myself," Zhang Lin refused directly.
Upon hearing Zhang Lin's reply, the city lord's face darkened again. He had been repeatedly humiliated by Zhang Lin all day, and he was losing face.
But he genuinely meant no harm to Zhang Lin, yet Zhang Lin remained constantly on guard against him, leaving him feeling incredibly wronged... Don't even mention it!
He felt that Zhang Lin was just young and impetuous. He was so powerful at such a young age, it was inevitable that he would become a little arrogant. He just needed to be suppressed and tempered.
However... at present, he really doesn't have the confidence to overpower Zhang Lin in terms of strength.
"you……"
The city lord flicked his white robe, snorted coldly, and turned to leave.
He had already made up his mind that once his trusted and beloved subordinate, Xia, arrived, he would join forces with Xia to teach Zhang Lin a lesson and suppress his arrogant arrogance!
Zhang Lin didn't care about the city lord's anger. He turned around and went to find An Qingge and the others. Together they returned to the vicinity of Villa No. 16 and began clearing out the zombies in the area.
Now, he is somewhat wary of the mysterious city lord, but the confidence brought by his powerful strength also makes him eager to test his skills against the city lord.
However... directly confronting the city lord head-on is clearly not in line with Zhang Lin's personality. He is not the kind of person who becomes arrogant and domineering just because he has some strength. Therefore, Zhang Lin's current attitude is very simple.
They openly expressed their distrust of the city lord, but without offending him.
If he doesn't attack me, then I'll be fine. But if he dares to attack me, well... let's see who wins.
Sorry, but Hope City is now mine!
Zhang Lin had always wanted a base of operations so he could settle down, get married, have children, develop his family, collect system rewards, and quietly improve his own strength.
