Chapter 97 A Huge Conspiracy
Tang Zijun frowned slightly and turned to look at Chang Lei.
Then his gaze fell upon the flashing signal lights of the Mechanical Outer Demon.
"you do not know?"
"Know what?" Sparks flew from the wires in the cross-section of the Mechanical Outer Path Demon's body. "I don't understand what you're talking about. What, a strange beast appearing in the sunlight? How can such a thing exist?!"
According to the intelligence obtained, sunlight in the real world has a strong purifying effect on all beings in the shadows. Those light particles are like poison to them, and ordinary beings simply cannot withstand that kind of damage.
This is basic logic, whether among evil forces or in the magical girl community, so when Tang Zijun asked the question, the Mechanical Outer Demon seemed to have heard something unbelievable.
Tang Zijun's eyes were somewhat gloomy. He could tell that the mechanical heretic demon in front of him had no intention of deceiving him; he truly knew nothing about it.
"Why did you attack my people?" Tang Zijun asked after a pause.
"To your people."
After a moment's hesitation, the Mechanical Outer Demon quickly realized that the strange fellow in front of him was probably referring to the Greedy One behind him.
"Didn't you attack us first? He's covered in the aura of a beast egg and residual energy from a shattered dark crystal. You attacked our beast egg for no reason, are you planning to turn around and bite us back?!"
As expected, the reason why this heretical demon targeted Chang Lei was because he sensed the aura of a strange beast egg on Chang Lei.
Those alien beast eggs were made by the heretical demons, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them their exclusive 'weapons'. Chang Lei is currently missing most of his original power, so it's not surprising that he can't hide this energy, let alone the fact that he's trying to dissect the alien beast eggs.
However, the heretic demon in front of him seemed genuinely unaware of the issue that the alien beast eggs could appear in sunlight.
But how could that be?
Based on Tang Zijun's understanding of these evil forces, although some high-ranking cadres wouldn't tell all their schemes to their subordinate action team leaders, their goals were the same, so it was impossible for them not to reveal anything.
Moreover, things like monster eggs are clearly placed in the real world by special heretical demons, and some monster eggs are even guarded by the Netherworld Clan and elite or captain-level heretical demons.
Even if the Mechanical Outer Demon had already descended into the real world, it wouldn't be completely unaware of the plans in the Inner World.
He was a nail driven into reality, not a being completely expelled from the other world. He should have been aware of something that was clearly enough to affect the war situation in both the real world and the other world.
Tang Zijun slowly put down the shotgun in her hand and asked.
"How much do you know about Sir Bones?"
"Sir Skeleton?" Upon hearing this name, the Mechanical Outer Demon reacted noticeably more strongly, though he was mostly confused. "Sir Skeleton is a high-ranking official in the Liaosha region."
"Liaosha Region?" This was the first time Tang Zijun had heard this place name; it didn't sound like a region name from the real world.
"The other world has its own names for geographical locations in the real world, and it might be difficult to find the corresponding ones in your memory, since they are marked according to the opening of the gaps."
Chang Lei leaned over and calmly added to the introduction.
"The gaps opened in different cities and the areas in the underworld are not the same. These guys divide them according to the territories of various high-ranking officials in the underworld. In reality, two cities may be thousands of kilometers apart, but in the underworld, they belong to the same high-ranking official."
Tang Zijun narrowed her eyes slightly. "So, in the inner world, those high-ranking officials all have their own territories, and the gaps connecting their territories to reality are their channels of invasion and territorial divisions?"
"You could say that," Chang Lei nodded. "In some large cities, once a breach is opened, it can even attract the attention of two or three high-ranking officials."
Now Tang Zijun knows where her doubts come from.
He had always judged the heretics based on the same approach he used to take against the greedy ones, but the truth is that the formation and rules of the inner world are completely different from those of the mirror plane, and the heretics' course of action is also very different from that of the greedy ones.
Although the greedy ones also have many high-ranking officials, they do not have any real division of territory or region. They are led by the God of Mirror-Eater Greed, and each of them uses different methods to hunt their prey.
Rather than viewing greedy individuals as a whole, it's more accurate to describe them as a group of "collaborators."
They rarely act together, usually going it alone, and even the most petty greedy will not obey the orders of high-ranking officials.
If it weren't for the fact that he had killed too many people, forcing these greedy individuals to unite against him, they would probably still be like sand that cannot be bound together, fighting each other in the future.
But the heretical demons in the inner world are different. These guys are organized with a clear hierarchy. They not only have high-ranking cadres as leaders, but also command all sorts of low-ranking heretical demons and scum under their command.
It's no wonder that heretics are the main enemies of magical girls; the combined power of these guys is far stronger than that of greedy individuals who stab each other in the back.

"So, you're also one of Sir Skeleton's subordinates?" Tang Zijun then turned his gaze to the Mechanical Heretic Demon. He noticed that the other party also addressed Sir Skeleton as "Sir".
"I am not," the Mechanical Heretic Demon replied in a low voice.
"No wonder they were completely unaware of the alien beast eggs that are not afraid of sunlight. In other words, this method was just the personal act of that Skeleton Lord and was not known to the other heretics." Tang Zijun frowned even more deeply.
"Is there a problem?" Chang Lei asked, somewhat puzzled.
"This is a big problem."
Tang Zijun was biting her nails.
"Xiaobai told me that the monster eggs cannot be detected before they reach maturity. In other words, the magical girls cannot destroy the monsters before they hatch. So, under these circumstances—why haven't any monsters been exposed yet?"
"this"
Chang Lei was about to answer when he suddenly remembered something and fell silent again.
Then Tang Zijun continued.
"Before that bear, I also encountered a monster egg in Snow City. That monster was clearly not something a magical girl like Tangcao could handle. I don't believe that Sir Skull only has two territories under his command, and I don't believe that he only cultivated these two monster eggs."
"So here's the question: if Sir Skeleton had already created enough monster eggs before this, why weren't those monsters exposed to the public eye?"
