Meg's voice was a little cold, and so was his heart.
He had killed tens of thousands of innocent people for his own selfish desire to become stronger. Such behavior was no different from that of a devil.
Melant looked at Meg, and said, "We need to find him as soon as possible. With his current power, he can easily destroy a town without powerhouses guarding it. The more people he kills, the stronger he will become."
"It's not just killing people. His motive is probably to start a new racial war. If it's just one or two small villages, he won't be satisfied, either," Meg said in a low voice.
"You know him very well?"
"I do know a lot about the enemy." Meg laughed self-deprecatingly. It was a pity that he didn't kill Josh back then because he thought he knew him very well. That was why there was such a massacre today.
"Then where can we go to find him?" Melant asked.
"Let's sweep through the Twilight Forest first. If there's nothing there, we'll enter the borders of the Roth Empire and do a sweep." Meg thought for a while, and said, "Before the clean-up is completed, Andre won't be in a hurry to start a new war. He's someone who needs to have complete control of the situation. However, Josh won't wait. He will definitely start a new conflict. It's completely reasonable for the orcs to launch a revenge attack on the Roth Empire now. "
"Alright, we'll look for him according to your judgment." Melant nodded. He didn't doubt Meg's judgment at all.
"Impressive. I didn't expect Alex to not only be powerful, but he's also an outstanding strategist. It's really admirable." Noah looked at Meg with admiration.
Everyone boarded the griffin again, and Meg got Ah Zi to start scanning the Twilight Forest.
The scanning distance of 250 kilometers allowed the originally difficult carpet search to be realized.
However, the Twilight Forest was very vast. Even with Ah Zi's speed, it still took them two hours to finish the sweep.
The purple-striped griffin stopped at the edge of the Twilight Forest, and Melant said, "He only stayed for a short while at the few suspicious places. From the traces of the demonic aura, he might have entered the Roth Empire, or gone to the north where there are few people."
"Let's go to the borders to take a look." Meg nodded. He rode the purple-striped griffin into the Roth Empire's borders, and began to patrol along the borders.
After entering the Roth Empire, the presence of the demonic aura became much weaker. It was scattered, but there was no order or pattern. In the end, it disappeared mysteriously, and there was no trace of it at all.
Melander's expression was a little complicated. He said in a low voice, "He should have found a way to hide his demon aura. I'm afraid it's impossible to find him by following his demon aura. We can only continue to investigate. As long as he appears in the range of the Hybrid Turtle Shell Stone, we can lock him down."
Meg looked at the gradually brightening sky. After searching for an entire night, he still couldn't find Josh. That guy's anti-reconnaissance ability was the most troublesome.
"It's time for me to go back. I'll leave this place to you guys. Keep in touch at all times. If you find someone, don't be in a hurry to take action. Let me know first. I'll rush over as soon as possible," Meg said to the two of them.
"Alright, you must have something very important to do. Please take care." Noah nodded with an understanding expression.
"It's nothing important. My wife and children are waiting at home. I'll go back and have an early sleep," Meg said calmly.
"I …" Noah opened his mouth and revealed a bitter smile. Listen, is this something a human would say?
"Let's go." Meg patted Ah Zi's back, and Ah Zi rose into the air and flew in the direction of Chaos City. Meanwhile, Meg closed his eyes and began to rest.
"Grandpa, what should we do now?"
Noah asked dejectedly. They were the only ones left in the quiet mountain ridge.
"I saw a military camp over there just now. Go get an ironback eagle, and we'll continue to patrol. Now that we have a target, and the scanning area has expanded so much, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Melander was very excited. He didn't look tired at all even though he didn't sleep for the entire night.
"Alright, I'll start acting as bait." Noah turned and flew towards the military camp in the distance. He was half-floating, half-floating like a ghost.
…
It was already 5: 30 am when Meg reached home. He went upstairs to take a shower, and meditated for 15 minutes before he got up and went downstairs to prepare breakfast and the morning service as usual.
As a man who had stepped into the demigod realm, he didn't feel tired at all after a night without sleep.
However, he still couldn't find Josh even though he had brought a huge human flesh scanner with him this time. That was a little disappointing.
"You didn't find him?" Irina had come downstairs at some point. She was standing at the kitchen door and leaning against the door frame as she looked at Meg, who was in a daze while cooking the porridge.
"He's not in the Twilight Forest, nor at the border of the Roth Empire. I'm a little curious where that fellow is hiding." Meg stirred the porridge in the pot slowly.
"Andre has returned to Rodu. The possibility of him bypassing Andre and starting another war is not high unless he can become the king of the Roth Empire." Irina smiled. "That's what he's been dreaming of."
"After absorbing the resentment and blood essence, his power is above 9th-tier, but not 10th-tier. It's impossible for him to kill Andre and Josh and suppress all opposition to becoming the king of the Roth Empire with this power." Meg shook his head. "Even I would find it difficult to kill Andre, who is in the royal palace of Rodu."
"But he's Josh, one of Andre's favorite sons. He's the second prince who has the highest chance of becoming the next emperor of the Roth Empire. Furthermore, he sold his soul to the devil. This time, he was able to bypass Andre and mobilize the military to start a war against the orcs and elves at the same time. This already proves that he can't be judged by common sense. "Irina's expression was very serious.
Meg fell silent upon hearing that. He thought about what Irina said seriously. The power that the Great Old One gave Josh was unknown, and his identity was indeed very special.
"However, it's not necessarily a bad thing if Andre dies. That old fox is bad. He's harder to deal with than Josh and Sean, and he's very ambitious. " Irina smiled. "And as long as Josh ascends to the throne, he'll be in the open. By then, it'll be much easier for us to find and kill him."
Meg nodded. "Perhaps I should find time to make a trip to Rodu. The longer we delay, the stronger he'll become. I'm afraid it'll be too late when he's completely replaced by the Great Old One."
"I'll go with you then. Only the Holy Light can purify the demonic aura. I'll send him to heaven personally." Irina's voice was a little cold.
"Oh, yes. Do you know anything about the Ghost race? Those two fellows yesterday were from the Ghost race, "Meg asked again.
"Ghost race? I think I saw some records about it in the library many years ago. Didn't this demon race go extinct in the racial war a few hundred years ago? "
