Chapter 272 - 251: The Lost Demon Mirror (Part 2)
In this message, the other party referred to the Demon Race as nobles and called the coalition’s recovery of the Divine Protection Continent an occupation. They even addressed Lynn as the Divine King’s Envoy instead of Hero, clearly showing they’re not aligned with Miracle World, not even remotely.
If he’s not a spy planted by the Demon Race within Miracle World, then he’s a damned "traitor to the divine."
Moreover, Lynn knows this person isn’t originally a spy of the Demon Race because his first probing message made it obvious, not to mention Ilya mentioned that the number 1 Demon Mirror was lost and isn’t in their possession at all.
Otherwise, what status does this person have to be able to use the same kind of demonic treasure that Lynn, the Demon Emperor, and the seven great legitimate Demon Kings of the Demon Realm use?
Through this second message, it’s already clear that the person holding the number 1 Demon Mirror is an insider from Miracle World intending to defect to the Demon Race. He immediately sent significant intelligence to the "Demon Realm." Although this intelligence’s value is moderate, as the vast coalition’s formation is hard to conceal, other insiders can inquire and find out.
In this campaign, the Eight Great Empires originally planned to use him as a mighty force to crush the Demon Race’s reviving threat, intended as an overwhelming tactic rather than a surprise attack. This intelligence was supposed to be kept somewhat hidden, but if you found out, then forget it.
Just like previously when the Seven Great Empires didn’t plan to involve the Celestial Destiny Empire, they acted secretly from Helena, and yet it easily leaked anyway.
As the plan starts to be implemented officially, hiding it becomes even more challenging.
If this insider only provides the Demon Realm with this intelligence, then it essentially brings no harm to Miracle World, failing to cause any real damage, and naturally, he won’t have any "credit" afterwards.
This insider is just that, an ordinary traitor who got lucky and found the magic mirror.
Just as Lynn thought that the insider with the number 1 Demon Mirror posed no threat, his third message came, which almost caused Lynn to crush his own magic mirror impulsively.
"The little man here has detailed information about Lynn himself. He is a near-god level strongman, difficult to confront, yet indulges in women and vanity, quickly amassing many beauties. The little man suggests using this to probe him, seizing the opportunity while he is on the Divine Protection Continent battlefield. The nobles could send a Demigod level Demon to raid the Celestial Destiny Empire and Elf Kingdom, capturing his women Vivian, Xiya, Catherine, Helena, and the two girls being nurtured, to force him to exit the divine war. If the plan succeeds, it will be an opportunity for the nobles to regroup and break Miracle World. If not successful, killing his wives and daughters could unsettle his mind, aiding the noble powerhouses in combat against him. I urge you to act swiftly; Miracle World is weak, and no one can stop a Demigod Demon from acting. The little man eagerly awaits your troops’ arrival."
Lynn read the message filling the entire mirror surface with a grim face, sensing that if it weren’t for the limited mirror area, this person could write even more details.
Initially, he despised such an insider, ready to randomly seize a moment to catch and kill him, but now feels there’s a need to unearth him and send him to the Demon Realm he longs for, letting him experience the warmth of its people.
He happens to still have Purgatory Demon captives that haven’t been executed and could grant special pardons for a few of them to treat him well, utilizing their unimaginable, elaborate torture methods that have wreaked havoc across many Great Worlds.
Luckily, the other eight pieces of the magic mirror are all under his control, with this guy only able to contact him and them. If even one magic mirror were in the hands of the Purgatory Demon Race or Yellow Springs Demon Race, it would truly complicate matters.
It’s undeniable that the Demon Dragon Emperor was a great benefactor; the seven Demon King heirs it selected were exceptional!
If you hadn’t died and turned to ashes, with your corpse devoured by others, I would have unearthed you for a lavish funeral once, no, twice!
"Ilya, is there a way for the Demon Mirrors to locate each other? The number 1 Demon Mirror appeared and sent me a message; I want to uncover this person."
After calming down slightly, Lynn didn’t hesitate to use the final active use count within this three-day cycle to inquire about finding the number 1 Demon Mirror.
Perhaps sensing Lynn’s urgency from the Demon Realm, Ilya’s reply quickly came through the number 3 Demon Mirror.
"Typically, two magic mirrors need to be in close proximity to sense each other. If the distance exceeds one kilometer, message transmission is the only way to connect. However, your number 2 mirror and number 1 mirror were mutually connected for long periods, allowing a much larger sensing distance, at least a ten-kilometer range. Unfortunately, the transmission link between 1 and 2 was overridden when I used my number 3 mirror and your number 2 mirror to establish a transmission link to bring you into the Demon Realm. Otherwise, you could attempt a direct transmission docking. However, if the other party closes the transmission path, it’s still unfeasible. But if you’re eager to find the number 1 mirror, I suggest searching around thoroughly. Since the number 1 mirror has been lost for over a year without communicating with us, our sisters speculate it might have suffered damage in chaotic battles, possibly affecting communication range. The recent contact with you might mean you entered his communication range. Since you and he have a ten-kilometer sensing range, why not give it a try and hope for a lucky encounter."
Ilya’s message filled the mirror, seemingly striving to convey everything she could at once, considering the communication restrictions on the magic mirror, not wasting each interaction.
After reading Ilya’s reply, Lynn put away the magic mirror, and shortly after, Natasha finished her bath and came over.
However, he might disappoint the fragrant little beauty dragon; as Ilya suggested, he could indeed try his luck outside.
How the number 1 mirror lost its way for so long without selling Miracle World’s intelligence to the Demon Realm and suddenly decided to become a traitor now, moreover, he didn’t receive the number 1 mirror messages while far away in the Celestial Destiny Empire, indicating the number 1 mirror’s communication range is indeed restricted. Not just cross-realm, but seemingly unable to cross several countries.
The holder of the number 1 mirror likely resides within the Light Empire, at most in adjacent countries.
The likelihood within the Light Empire is above seventy percent, as Lynn received the number 1 mirror’s message upon arriving at the Light Empire’s central region.
"Darling, you take a rest first. I’m going out for a spin. If anyone comes looking for me, just say I’m tired from travel and went to bed early, and ensure no one comes in, understood?"
Since he’s prepared to try his luck, Lynn needed to instruct Natasha properly.
This action can’t be conducted openly, nor can it be exposed to the Light Church Court’s people.
Else, how would he explain when asked?
No problem; I’ve got the Demon Realm’s magic mirror here, and I’m looking for the other piece...
If people found out, even as the acknowledged Light Divine Envoy, he would need to provide a reasonable explanation.
"Mm-mm, although Natasha doesn’t know what Lynn intends to do, she’s well-behaved and won’t ask unnecessary questions!"
Thankfully, Natasha is tight-lipped; he’s tried... no, he understands. In any case, Lynn trusts her implicitly, believing she’ll coordinate well with him.
Given his status, it’s unlikely anyone would intrude his chamber forcefully, not even Akelie would dare.
But his daughter dares...
If that pesky husky ruins everything, he’ll definitely peel her dog skin when he returns!
