I am the one running the game

Chapter 914 I am an honest person, and I definitely don’t have any tricks up my sleeve in the magic mirror

The magic mirror puppets officially joined the battlefield. A single magic mirror puppet was very weak and was just cannon fodder in large numbers, but ten magic mirror puppets became one big magic mirror puppet, and its combat power soared to the point that only two steam soldiers could deal with it.

However, let alone ten magic mirror puppets, even the cost of a hundred magic mirror puppets is not as much as that of a steam soldier.

Then, after the Magic Mirror Giant Puppet formed by a hundred Magic Mirror Puppets, the Magic Mirror War Puppet formed by a thousand Magic Mirror Puppets, and the Magic Mirror Sanctuary Puppet formed by ten thousand Magic Mirror Puppets joined the battlefield, the limelight of all the extraordinary soldiers was snatched away by the Magic Mirror Puppets.

As for the 100,000 levels above that, there are none. Lu Xingshi did not produce that many. He only produced 30,000 magic mirror puppets in total.

There is only one Magic Mirror Sanctuary Puppet, and the number of the remaining Magic Mirror War Puppets and Magic Mirror Giant Puppets is also decreasing one by one.

With Lu Xingshi summoning meteorites in front and the Magic Mirror Puppet providing strong reinforcements from behind, the situation in the Dragon Mountain Range was completely reversed.

Originally, the Orei Empire was defeated, but now it has not only recovered the lost territory, but also further occupied the enemy's territory.

The successive reports of victory were transmitted back to the imperial capital, and they were particularly glaring amid the string of defeats.

"The empire is saying that if I can occupy the entire Giant Dragon Mountain Range, they will agree to the deal?" Lu Xingshi complained, "That's too good to be true."

"Or you can switch battlefields. The crisis in the Dragon Mountains has been resolved, but the crises in other frontal battlefields are still there." Cato said, "By then, the war will be completely resolved. Not only will the Empire agree to your request, but it will also support the Principality of Lanton."

In fact, Cato knew what Lu Xingshi was thinking. If the Dragon Mountains were not the kingdom of the God of Earth and Life, and there were no immortal dragons, Lu Xingshi would most likely not choose this place.

In Gato's opinion, now that the crisis in the Dragon Mountains has been resolved, the best way is for Lu Xingshi to release a meteorite spell on each front battlefield to ensure that as long as Lu Xingshi is alive, no country will dare to invade the Orei Empire.

"I came here for the Dragon Mountain Range. It wouldn't matter if I left."

"Besides, the small area occupied by our empire cannot meet my requirements at all."

"What I want is the entire Dragon Mountain Range. Do you understand the meaning of these two words? 'Entire'?" Lu Xingshi repeated his request once again.

"That's exactly what the Empire requires. You can get two salaries for one job."

"The Empire agreed to the deal, but it won't erase your contribution," Cato explained.

If Lu Xingshi really wants to take over the entire Dragon Mountain Range, the empire will also fully support him.

And doing so can actually resolve the crisis of the empire.

The coalition forces of the Dragon Mountain countries suffered a crushing defeat, but that’s nothing, they will be able to make a comeback soon.

However, if Lu Xingshi really led them to steadily occupy the Dragon Mountains, then the coalition forces of various countries would definitely not be able to sit still and would focus all their attention on the southern battlefield of the Dragon Mountains.

Once the Aure Empire occupies the rich Dragon Mountains, the empire will no longer have problems with logistical supplies.

Without such concerns, both national strength and military power will begin to explode in a short period of time.

And this is not a short-term benefit, but a long-term benefit that can continuously produce a large amount of resources. With the Dragon Mountains, the Orei Empire directly switched to a strategy of holding on.

Resisting the outside and developing the inside would be enough to bring down the Alliance of Nations. Then it would not be the Aore Empire that would die, but the Alliance of Nations.

Therefore, once Lu Xingshi has the corresponding intention, the alliance of countries will definitely stop it.

Either increase the troops or redeploy them.

But in front of Lu Xingshi, they were just a group of cannon fodder.

Unless they have the power to resist the meteorite magic.

But now, let alone fighting, the only person who can summon a meteorite is probably Lu Xingshi.

"That's a nice thought, but the Dragon Mountain Range is not suitable for using meteorite magic, and you know that well."

"Once the meteorites are used to plow the land, it will destroy the ecology of the Dragon Mountain Range. Even if the ecological environment of the Dragon Mountain Range recovers quickly, it will be extremely disadvantageous for the empire."

"So it's a good idea to use the inexpensive and good quality magic mirror puppet."

"I can lend you the Seven Deadly Sins Magic Mirror temporarily, but you can find the resources for its manufacture yourself," said Lu Xingshi.

He is not a kind person, but he is temporarily lending it to the other party to experience the effect of the magic mirror of the seven deadly sins.

As long as Cato has experienced it, I guarantee that he will bite the bullet and get the magic mirror of the seven deadly sins even if it means the empire has to sell everything it has.

This is not just a factory that manufactures magic mirror puppets. After the magic mirror's abilities have been improved by Lu Xingshi, it is definitely a weapon of war.

Since all the changes have to be made, they must be completed in one go.

Originally, I wanted to use it for myself, but I didn't expect that I would have a breakthrough. Plans cannot keep up with the changes, so it would be better if I could exchange it for a magical weapon with the same attributes as mine.

"This... will it be willing?" Cato certainly wanted to try it, but he was worried that the magic mirror would not agree.

In Lu Xingshi's eyes, the magic mirror is an artificial intelligence, but in Cato's view, it is just like stuffing a living person's soul into the magic mirror. The creation of black magic weapons is inherently cruel.

In fact, this is true, but it does not use the soul of a living person, but requires a large number of souls. Cato does not reject it. After all, on the battlefield, more people died than this and he did not say anything.

What he was worried about was that he was not the owner of the magic mirror and that the magic mirror would not fully cooperate with him.

"Why not? If you can't be the host, you can be a guest. Although many core things cannot be used, the impact is not big." The core that Lu Xingshi mentioned, naturally, are things like permission modification, self-destruction and so on.

These can only be used by Lu Xingshi, the master. Naturally, others cannot use them even if they want to.

"Then... I'll try it first." Cato's heart was already beating.

Lu Xingshi then assigned Cato a second-level authority and gave him the magic mirror.

"Welcome, Mr. Cato," the magic mirror said, "Do you need me to introduce its functions to you?"

"Of course, I really need it." Cato was very satisfied with the magic mirror being so sensible.

Lu Xingshi was dismissive of this because it was his first time using it and it was very new, plus there was a filter.

After a long time, you will realize that the magic mirror not only has an artificial intelligence side, but also an artificial stupidity side.

The magic mirror's intelligence is limited. Even if it is restored to its heyday, what changes is the magic mirror's power, not its intelligence.

Therefore, the stronger the recovery, the more you can feel his mental retardation.

Apart from this, if you don't use smart operation but choose manual operation, the feeling will be much better.

Especially after you become familiar with it and become an experienced driver, it doesn’t really matter whether you have the magic mirror’s artificial intelligence or not. In fact, it may even be more comfortable to control it yourself.

Cato had a lot of fun testing the functions of the magic mirror, just like a child who has got a new toy.

"This isn't the original magic mirror of the seven deadly sins, is it?" Cato suddenly asked this question.

"Yes, I have restored it and removed some of the hidden dangers left by the original owner and some of the inherent drawbacks." Lu Xingshi glanced at him: "Otherwise it would be more troublesome for you to control it."

"Then... you didn't leave something in there, did you?" Cato became alert.

"How is that possible? I have always been honest. Besides, if my strength had not improved, how could I have sold the magic mirror to the empire? I kept it for my own use."

"It's okay. Why would I tamper with something I use myself? Not to mention that this is just a transitional item." Lu Xingshi rolled his eyes.

He knew that he was not a good person, but at least he had some commendable qualities in terms of credit.

I dare not say that there has never been any betrayal, but the number of cases can be counted on one's fingers.

"What you said does make sense. If you really want to harm the empire, with your power, there is no need to use such clever tricks." Cato thought, with Lu Xingshi's meteorite technique, there is no need to be so troublesome.

With enough power, he didn't think that Lu Xingshi would use such a petty trick.

"That's right, so you should persuade the higher-ups of the empire, especially the nobles and the royal family, to stop picking on me for no reason."

"If I get really angry one day, I will just use a meteorite to smash the imperial capital. Those affected will die unjustly." Lu Xingshi advised.

Gato's eye twitched: "Don't worry, they know their limits."

If someone really doesn't know what's good for them, there are plenty of people in the empire who wouldn't mind helping make that person disappear.

"There is one more thing. The Empire has received intelligence that the Alliance of Nations intends to go to the Holy Country and ask witch hunters to deal with you."

"And they've started to spread the news that you're a wizard. The Empire is completely eliminating the influence and going to the Holy Kingdom to explain." Cato said.

"It's just a small country, don't bother with it." Lu Xingshi said disdainfully. The Holy Country was the country that launched the witch hunt movement back then, and it trained a large number of witch hunters targeting wizards.

Although they are called witch hunters, they are actually a variant of the knight profession, and are still knights in essence.

"They are very good at dealing with wizards. In recent years, there have been extraordinary soldiers called wizard hunters. They are not very powerful against knights and extraordinary soldiers, but they are extremely powerful against wizards."

"What's more important is that they have orthodox legal principles. As long as they recognize them, the actions of the Alliance of Nations towards the Empire will become orthodox." Cato said worriedly.

"Oh." Lu Xingshi's reply was very bland. A small country that used wizard weapons to create extraordinary soldiers, and advocated the righteousness of hunting wizards? It was ironic to think about it.

"They killed wizards. What does it have to do with me? I'm not a wizard."

Lu Xingshi said this with confidence.

The main thing is that he did not lie. Although he used the level division of knights and wizards, in fact his profession should be demigod, and the power system he used was also incomplete divine power and authority.

It's just that the manifestation is in the form of elements. If the witch hunters and wizard killers of the Holy Kingdom only look at the surface, they are doomed.
