The Amga45 was speeding down the highway.
The magic compass's one-hour effective time had long passed, but Zhang Heng did not immediately activate it again. Instead, he continued to drive in the direction indicated by the pointer. At the same time, he made a mark on the map to record his position when the compass's first effective time ended.
He had no choice. This compass could only be used a total of seven times. If he still could not locate Seth's location after seven times, then the possibility of completing the mission would not be zero, but it would be very slim. So Zhang Heng decided to continue driving for another four hours before locating Seth again.
During this time, he had been simulating and perfecting the plan to kill Seth in his mind.
If Seth had been separated from Thor, and the other new and old gods hadn't found his whereabouts, it would be the best situation for Zhang Heng. He might be able to complete Isis's mission by fighting them head-on, but if Thor was still with Seth now, it would be unwise to attack them head-on.
Thor had always been the most powerful warrior among the Norse gods. How strong was he? In Norse mythology, because Thor went to the east alone to solve the problem caused by the giant monster, the gods of Asgard didn't feel safe at all. Worried that they would be wiped out, they proposed to build a wall to protect themselves. This was also the origin of the famous city-building story.
Judging from this story alone, even if all the gods of Asgard joined forces, they would still be no match for Thor. Of course, after reading so many myths, Zhang Heng knew that there were many illogical and contradictory points in them. It was normal to have a roller coaster of combat power in different stories.
But no matter what the story in Norse mythology is, Thor's combat power among the Asgardian gods is undeniable, and he is now the most famous one among the Norse gods. This is why Odin asked Zeus to help hold the line in the camp of the old gods.
If possible, Zhang Heng didn't want to face Thor head-on. So the safest way to kill Seth was to attack from a distance. But there was a problem.
Zhang Heng looked at the items in his hand. The Pestilence Bone Bow and the Paris Arrow were officially recommended. The Paris Arrow could automatically find the enemy's weakness after it was fired, and the Pestilence Bone Bow could make up for the lack of damage from the Paris Arrow.
However, the [Paris Arrow] was only a D-grade item. Even with the powerful plague effect of the [Pestilence Bone Bow], the prerequisite for the effect to take effect was that the [Paris Arrow] could hit its target. The flight speed of the [Paris Arrow] might be enough to deal with ordinary people, but against supernatural creatures, especially powerful gods like Thor, it was likely to become a fatal shortcoming that couldn't be ignored.
There was another point. Although bows and arrows were long-range weapons, their effective range was limited. There was no need to consider using the Paris Arrow. The characteristics of the Paris Arrow made it very difficult to complete a long-range shot, and a long-range shot was also very easy to dodge. If he chose to shoot straight, the best range of the Pestilence Bone Bow was 60 to 70 meters.
At this distance, it would only take a moment for Thor's hammer to reach him.
Using modern firearms would undoubtedly effectively extend the safe distance, and it would be less likely to be discovered. However, modern firearms also had their drawbacks. To be honest, Zhang Heng didn't know how much damage a bullet could do to a mythical creature. He only used a bullet to hit the Nyarlathotep, and he chose a powerful anti-material weapon. The muzzle diameter was an astonishing 25mm, and the bullets he used were modified from the high-explosive dual-use ammunition found in the helicopter.
On the surface, Nyarlathotep looked to be in a sorry state. However, the Nyarlathotep quickly recovered and even had the time to talk nonsense with Zhang Heng. As for Seth, Zhang Heng wasn't sure if he could withstand a headshot from an anti-material weapon.
It wasn't that Zhang Heng hadn't considered using more powerful weapons. For example, mortars or even missiles. However, he still didn't know where Seth was. If he was in a densely populated urban area, these weapons of mass destruction obviously couldn't be used.
But soon, Zhang Heng thought of the two foreigners who came to the hotel to kill Miss Succubus. Obviously, they didn't do it on the spur of the moment. They had planned it for a long time, belonging to a mysterious organization. They were very skilled, and they seemed to have the support of the Cellphone God. If it weren't for Zhang Heng, Miss Succubus would have died in their hands.
And the weapon they used was a pistol. With that in mind, Zhang Heng drove the car to a corner near the service area, opened the trunk, and put the gun in his travel bag. It was an M1911 that was commonly seen abroad. Zhang Heng didn't know how these people brought this gun into China. The muzzle was also equipped with a silencer. Obviously, they didn't want to attract attention when they attacked.
In fact, Zhang Heng had roughly checked the gun before, and he couldn't find anything special from its appearance. This time, when he opened the magazine, he immediately noticed something different.
Zhang Heng took out a bullet from the magazine and observed it carefully.
This bullet was completely different from ordinary bullets. It seemed to be made of pure silver, and the bullet head was smeared with some unknown juice. The bottom of the cartridge case was engraved with Hebrew — All Things Shall Die. Zhang Heng then pried open a bullet with Shrouded Sheath and saw the complex divine runes engraved inside, as well as a drop of dark red liquid similar to blood.
Zhang Heng had never seen such a bullet before. No, he hadn't even seen a bullet that looked like it. There was no doubt that this was a bullet specifically made to deal with supernatural creatures. Zhang Heng didn't know who designed this bullet, and he didn't know if it was only used to deal with the succubus or all mythical creatures.
At present, Zhang Heng was more inclined to the latter possibility. The main reason was that the succubi themselves were very weak. They only had one charm skill, and it only worked on the opposite sex. To deal with them, there was no need to spend so much effort to invent a special bullet. According to the succubus, some gods had been killed before her. If he was not mistaken, they should have been killed by this bullet.
Coupled with the complex divine runes engraved inside the bullet, it was basically certain that this bullet should have a considerable degree of versatility. Zhang Heng realized that he might be able to use this bullet to deal with Seth.
