Chapter 627: Chapter 531: Antimatter Bomb, We Need a Weapon That Can Kill a God!
October’s autumn winds gradually faded away, and the weather began to become increasingly cold, but this still couldn’t dampen the fervor of the Empire’s citizens regarding construction.
Under the grand construction concepts proposed by the Council, and the efforts of millions of laborers, the cities occupied by the Empire witnessed new changes almost every day.
Huge churches collapsed thunderously under the force of magic, replaced by towering magic power stations.
Countless workshops, emitting plumes of chimney smoke, rose from the ground, and railways connecting various cities were also being constructed rapidly and systematically.
Thanks to the grand construction, most young laborers were tied up in factories and construction sites. Coupled with the strategy of food rationing, the Council successfully managed this vast territory, with a population of twenty million, in an orderly manner through temporarily appointed officers from various places.
Of course, this was also inseparable from the massive weekly delivery of newspapers for propaganda.
Lynn was well aware that the culturally poor citizens were usually not very smart. Speaking to them about high principles was useless, so he had Luo’er adopt another strategy, which was to incite hatred!
They attributed all the oppression, hunger, and hardships suffered by the lower-class citizens in the past to the brutal rule of the nobility and the Church, which, in a sense, was indeed the truth.
With such rushed construction, the second Sun Furnace was also completed in the magic tower outside the capital city, which meant that the promotion ceremony for Anthony and other Sixth Circle Wizards was moved up the schedule.
However, Lynn did not partake and instead poured all his energy into the development of new magic, especially after the battle with Elara in the Holy City, which revealed the shortcomings of his nuclear explosion spell.
In fact, not just nuclear explosion spells, any methods they utilized seemed unable to harm that strange Divine Power, implying that their enemy would forever be invincible.
Thus, they urgently needed a weapon that could truly harm a god!
There were indeed many weapons in the data library of the intelligent brain that could do this.
For instance, the antimatter bomb!
This thing’s power was hundreds of times higher than that of nuclear bombs. In terms of energy utilization efficiency between the two, there was no comparison; through matter-antimatter annihilation effects, the mass-energy conversion ratio could reach a perfect one hundred percent!
Just dropping a few antimatter bombs, drilled into the deep subterranean layers and then detonating them, could directly destroy a planet—it was a real apocalyptic weapon!
Then there was the particle beam weapon, the main gun used by the Federation Starship Cannon, which involved binding a large amount of high-energy particles with a magnetic field, accelerating them through a particle accelerator at sub-light speed—absolutely effective!
Besides that, developing gravitational magic might also be a path… Previously, with the help of a link to the Magic Net, his spiritual power momentarily leaped from the Seventh to the Eighth Circle, even allowing him to do something preposterous like “seeing” the curvature of space.
However, considering his battle with Elara, the Lord of the Necromancers’ mastery of space might not be weak either, so being on par with her was already quite an achievement…
As Lynn pondered, a black raven scratched the bottom of the cage placed next to him, immediately interrupting his thoughts with a sharp noise.
“Stupid native, what laughable thing are you pondering again?” the black raven said arrogantly, lifting its head with interest.
“Of course, it’s about how to defeat the Lord of the Necromancers,” Lynn said straightforwardly and openly.
The face of the black raven instantly displayed a mocking expression, and it let out a loud, mocking laugh, even rolling around the cage eventually. “You really think you can defeat a god? This is the funniest joke I’ve heard in my life!”
Lynn’s expression remained unchanged, and he leaned back in his chair, watching the raven roll around in the cage as if watching an animal performance.
Noticing Lynn’s indifferent gaze, the laughter inside the cage gradually ceased; the black raven stood up again with a somewhat bored expression and disdainfully swept its gaze over Lynn.
“Stupid native, I advise you to abandon this notion early. With your powers, even if you exhaust all means, you cannot pose a real threat to a god!”
“Only a god can defeat a god, and only a god can kill a god!” the black raven prattled on.
Lynn didn’t affirm or deny, instead he asked, “But didn’t you say earlier that there was a way to help us overcome the Lord of the Necromancers?”
“As long as you successfully fend off the invasion of undead under the command of the Lord of the Necromancers and lure him to enter your world in his true body, the rest isn’t your concern,” said the black raven arrogantly.
“True body? Does he usually come in an avatar?” Lynn continued to inquire. “And why must we lure him into our world?”
The black raven hesitated briefly, seemingly pondering whether to answer the question.
“You are making us make a very dangerous choice for the world, to let a god you acknowledge we cannot cope with enter this plane, which might lead to a disaster for the Council and possibly the whole world,” Lynn said, raising an eyebrow.
“Otherwise what? Do you think if you do nothing, this world won’t be destroyed?” the black raven scoffed. “Well, I’ll tell you, native. It means the Lord of the Necromancers will leave his divine realm which, in such a case, is dangerous for a god…”
