The 310-kiloter radius spreading out from the explosion center is filled with yellow sand, and the massive storm continues unabated, showing no signs of weakening.
This place has beco a Human Prohibited Area.
Qing Chen silently watched from the floating airship, thinking that if this nuclear bomb had been dropped over City No. 10, everyone in the city would likely have perished.
The Roosevelt Kingdom has already deployed this level of weaponry, yet the Eastern Continent remains completely unprepared.
Currently, the Roosevelt Kingdom still plans to migrate to the Eastern Continent, and therefore does not want to use such heavily polluting weapons.
But if one day they fight to the very end, the crazed Drama Master might drag everyone down to hell.
Qing Chen sensed a sort of crisis looming.
This is probably what nuclear deterrence is all about.
On Airship No. 11, Black Knight Lao Shiyi led 13 subordinates and donned radiation suits.
He ordered the airship to advance another 30 kiloters, monitoring the radiation levels, and preparing to land at any ti.
At this mont, Lao Shiyi was no longer frivolous but rather had a grave and serious expression.
It’s ti to get down to business.
Qing Chen looked at them in surprise. Could it be that Lao Shiyi is planning to head to the explosion center now? With only six hours having passed since the explosion, even with advanced radiation suits, it’s still dangerous, right?
Yet, he saw Lao Shiyi carrying a large box, its contents unknown.
However, before the airship could move closer, the communications system had already activated.
Due to radiation, the communication was crackling with static.
The Silver City Duke said, "The target is not dead, no need to go. Return ho imdiately."
At this mont, Lao Shiyi whistled, cheerfully removing his radiation suit: "Fortunately, there’s no need to go to that hellhole. Isn’t it better to stay here, drink so wine, and chase after girls, rather than braving the sandstorm to go in?"
His speech stopped abruptly, as if not wanting Qing Chen and the others to know the true purpose of their trip.
Lao Shiyi said to the female soldiers: "Hurry back. Our target is Silver City, and I can’t wait to go ho!"
Marquis Bolton was dumbfounded: "Wait a minute, drop us off at the Central Royal City first!"
Lao Shiyi said nonchalantly: "I’m not going that way. How could I drop you off? If you want to go to the Central Royal City, you’ll have to get off yourself. The steward will co with ; consider that your fare to the Central Royal City."
Bolton stiffened his neck and said: "Then forget it. We’ll go to Silver City first. I’ll have my wife send an airship to pick up."
By now it was near morning, and everyone couldn’t stop feeling sleepy.
Lao Shiyi arranged for Qing Chen and He Jinqiu to share a dormitory, whereas Bolton’s room was two corridors away, completely separate.
This was an attempt to isolate Qing Chen and Bolton, creating an opportunity to recruit privately.
As it turned out, Bolton was also tough; he directly slept on the floor of Qing Chen and their double room.
Qing Chen offered him the bed, but he stubbornly refused to get up...
At this mont, this guy suddenly beca smart.
The room had two single beds, and Bolton was snoring loudly on the floor between the two beds.
Lying in his bed, Qing Chen typed on his phone, then stretched it out to show He Jinqiu: "Where are the nuclear missile silos of the Roosevelt Kingdom? On the Aerial Fortress?"
The two communicated back and forth via their phones, their hands moving above Bolton’s head as he snored loudly, completely unaware of what was happening.
Honestly, even if Lao Shiyi ca in at this mont to recruit him, he wouldn’t know it.
He Jinqiu typed on his phone and showed it to Qing Chen: "There are missile silos on the Aerial Fortress, but with only five including the Central Royal City, even launching nuclear missiles is not enough to pose a comprehensive threat to the Eastern Continent. The more significant threat is the Empire TOP Missile Launch Base. As far as I know, the facilities there enable the launch of 288 nuclear missiles within 6 hours, making it the most significant threat."
Typically, nuclear deterrence does not solely refer to developing nuclear bombs but having the capability to drag the entire world into hell if one is attacked.
Then dragging Earth into a nuclear winter.
Experts estimate that having more than 1000 nuclear warheads is barely sufficient to accomplish this.
Thus, while the nuclear weapons on the Aerial Fortress are terrifying, they are still manageable compared to the Empire TOP Missile Launch Base, which poses the greatest threat to the Eastern Continent.
If the Roosevelt Kingdom becos desperate, they would indeed launch nuclear missiles.
Qing Chen typed on his phone: "Before the mont cos when the dagger is drawn, this base must be destroyed. Does Boss He know where it is?"
He Jinqiu: "I don’t know, only that it’s near a coastal military base. However, there are 27 military bases, making it difficult to distinguish which it is. Alternatively, this base may be hidden even deeper and not be among those 27; I lean towards the latter."
He Jinqiu: "Are you going to find this missile launch base and destroy it?"
Qing Chen: "We have to do it. Additionally, that King with a batch of the Eye of Truth also must die."
If King only used the power of a Wizard, one A-Class Wizard wouldn’t warrant such caution from Qing Chen.
But it’s different with the Key of Gate. The ability to engage and escape at will makes even Qing Chen wary.
This bug is one he discovered, and he has to fix it himself.
First, to kill King, once Qing Chen can find him, he can find a way to kill him. But the problem is this guy might be hiding in the Central Royal City now, making him impossible to find.
