Chapter 182 Ripples of the Remnants



------------

Exiting the spiritual sea, the Second Prince\'s consciousness returned to his bedroom in the Empire. The female attendant beside him quickly closed a box, which was the item given by the Great Sage for mind communicating.

Although the female attendant did not join the conversation with Reji, she assisted the Second Prince by providing mental protection. Thus, she also heard the entire exchange.

Unable to hold back, she asked the Second Prince, "Your Highness, do you really intend to fulfill all the promises you made to that remnant of the old days?"

The female attendant was clearly referring to the truth from a thousand years ago.

But Danye laughed.

"Of course, why not?"

"But if that\'s the case, won\'t the Empire..."

The female attendant was very worried. After all, if it were announced, wouldn\'t it be equivalent to the Empire becoming the despicable one who stole the fruits of history?

Until the Second Prince patted her head.

"Lana, not everyone is like you, believing in legends and enjoying them."

"People care immensely about the truth from ten years ago, and they will investigate the truth from a hundred years ago. But for a truth from a thousand years ago... Don\'t you think it\'s a beautiful fairy tale?"

"The kind-hearted prince, facing the sins of history head-on, wielding the sword of justice together with his former enemies against the eternally inextinguishable evil Majesty on the throne. This will become the best propaganda for my rule over the Empire, and it will make me stand out among the numerous emperors in history."

Following the grand blueprint depicted by the Second Prince, the female attendant also seemed enchanted. However, she still had some concerns and asked uneasily, "But Your Highness, will those old day\'s people go back on their word? Will they really allow an imperial like you to continue being the Emperor? If their goal is not just fame but also power..."

"Lana, do you know why remnants are called remnants? Because no matter how hard they try, in the end, they can only make some ripples."

"And what we need to do is appreciate these beautiful ripples. I have a feeling that this cooperation will be very pleasant. They will definitely bring me and my elder brother the Crown Prince, quite a surprise."

….

-Syndicate.

Reji\'s consciousness returned to the underground crystal mine. The previous high-level Star Spirit had already dissipated on its own.

This Star Spirit had long transformed all the power of its body into the surrounding Star Spirit crystals, which were rich in magical resources. The reason it had not dissipated yet was to wait for Reji, the destined one it had agreed upon with the Great Sage.

After completing its mission, the Star Spirit completely vanished.

This also explained why the oasis in the Syndicate was continuously disappearing and why this place had turned into vast stretches of desert. The magical power of the earth had been absorbed by the high-level Star Spirit underground and transformed into a part of the crystal mine.

Reji already had a general plan for the Demon Race\'s next steps.

"Hektor, Pierre, I entrust the mining and defense of this crystal mine to you. I require all the Star Spirit crystals to be sent to the Demon Tower at the fastest speed and converted into the breeding energy for the Demon Race\'s army expansion and acceleration."

"As you command, my King."

The current Demon Race\'s military reserve was fifty thousand.

Indeed, from the original million, it had been directly reduced to fifty thousand by Reji.

However, most of the so-called million-strong demon army before were actually inferior pseudo-demons. But now, relying on the constant infighting and trials in the Demon Tower, the vast majority of the fifty thousand demon troops refined from the million were mid-tier demons around level sixty.

But this was still far from the peak.

However, it was fine.

With these Star Spirit crystals, the Demon Race could now enter the "rapid army expansion" mode. Reji had a rough estimate that within three months, the number of the Demon Race\'s army would return to a million. And this time, the million would be real, with a 2-5-3 distribution.

20% would be lord-level demons above level 80, 50% would be high-tier demons at level 70, and the remaining 30% would be various other mid-tier demons.

As for the low-level pseudo-demons, they were not even counted.

Such a military force was definitely stronger than the one during the human-demon war in the first playthrough of the game. Under normal circumstances, it should be enough to steamroll any world.

But to be on the safe side...

"Leo, gather the Wisdom Demons to analyze the human kingdoms on the map and find advantageous locations, strategic points, and various key fortresses that are favorable for our race\'s all-out war."

"Dian, within the next month, I need the Sorcerer Demons to complete the establishment of teleportation anchors at various strategic locations within the Radiant Holy Nation and the Court of Judgment, according to the strategic coordinates provided by Leo. It is required to allow our race\'s army to appear at any time in the strategic points of the two countries."

""As you command, my King. The Wisdom/Sorcerer Demons will not fail the important task entrusted by your majesty."" Leo and Dian knelt simultaneously to receive the order.

After unlocking the map function, teleportation anchors were also unlocked.

This ability might only be convenient for travel for individuals.

But for an army, it was equivalent to amplifying the advantage countless times. Imagine a demon army that could teleport at any time. In the first playthrough, if the Demon Race had this ability, forget about humans holding out for a hundred years, they probably would have been done for in less than a year.

Only after truly using these Hero\'s Relics did the apostles understand why they were defeated so badly. The Hero had these abnormal abilities, so their loss was indeed not unjustified.

But fortunately, everything was in the past tense.

Under the leadership of the new Demon King, they would, in turn, use the power that had once defeated them, make it their own, and then return anew!

As the apostles left one by one with their new tasks, only Reji and Vielsia remained in the room.

"Teacher, are you really going to..."

Seeing Vielsia biting her lip, wanting to say something but stopping, Reji naturally knew what Vielsia wanted to say.

Even becoming a demon apostle did not change Vielsia\'s stance as a firm lawful good alignment.

And once the Demon Race truly began an all-out war, regardless of victory or defeat, this world would definitely be in a state of turmoil and suffering.

As a form of reassurance, Reji softly explained, "Vielsia, there are some things we can choose not to use, but we can\'t be without."

"If possible, I promise you that I will try to choose a milder approach."

"Understood Teacher. I will also do my best to help the humans, to avoid the fate of destruction."

Vielsia nodded vigorously, her pure and clear eyes shining with determination.

Of course, the "help" for humans that she mentioned did not mean helping humans fight against the Demon Race.

It meant killing all the humans who stood in Reji\'s way. That way, her teacher could continue using the "mild" approach, and the human world could avoid being destroyed.

Vielsia finally set her gaze on the intelligence about the transportation of the energy for the Psionic Wall that Reji had obtained from the Second Prince earlier.

To protect the humans, she had to successfully let the Psionic Wall collapse.

As long as the Psionic Wall existed, the demon army could not threaten the Empire. There were only two ways to dismantle the Psionic Wall. Either find the Crown Prince and the imprisoned Star Spirit Queen and destroy the core relic, or follow Reji\'s backup plan and carry out a massacre in the three major countries through the teleportation anchors planted in other countries.

That way, the Psionic Wall, which used humans as batteries, would crumble on its own.

Between the two, Vielsia would definitely choose the former.

So the next destination was the Mage Nation.

However...

Vielsia actually had reservations about the Second Prince\'s proposal.

"Teacher, do you really want to cooperate with this human?"

"Of course not." Reji\'s final request to the Second Prince, to support the Syndicate and send resources, was actually just a smokescreen and could be considered a slight compensation for the Syndicate.

"But the intelligence provided by Danye... Hmm, it\'s a bit interesting. Perhaps we can try another approach."

"Another approach?"

Vielsia tilted her head.

Could it be that instead of destroying the energy, they planned to seize it and then study it to try to crack the Psionic Wall?

But Reji shook his head.

Seizing it was not enough.

Researching it was too troublesome.

For this secret energy transportation team of the Psionic Wall, he thought of another, more advanced method.
