"The flash disappeared!" Su Muyu squinted her eyes, raising the Communication Treasure Bead and staring at it. After a few seconds, the flash did not reappear.
At this mont, the two had already entered the airspace of the White Eagle Federation.
The sudden disappearance of the flash inside the Communication Treasure Bead was not a good sign.
"Has the magic energy run out?" Lu Heng considered the first possibility that the magic energy was depleted, causing the flash to disappear.
Su Muyu carefully sensed the energy waves inside the bead, shook her head, and replied, "There’s still a small amount of magic energy."
The bead still had magic energy, but the flash had disappeared.
In this situation, there’s only one possibility: the bead sending out the signal had already stopped transmitting.
The signal between the two Communication Treasure Beads had been disconnected, so the flash disappeared.
As for the reason behind the signal disruption, there could be many possibilities.
First, the person using the Communication Treasure Bead to send the signal might have intentionally turned it off.
Second, the Communication Treasure Bead sending the signal might have run out of magic energy.
Third, the Communication Treasure Bead sending the signal might have been damaged and could not transmit the signal.
Fourth, the signal from the Communication Treasure Bead might have been isolated.
In short, any scenario that could cause the Communication Treasure Bead’s signal to disappear is possible.
Su Muyu pondered and asked, "Our Communication Treasure Bead is running low on magic energy; could it be that the other party’s bead also ran out of energy?"
Lu Heng thought for a mont and said, "It’s possible, but if that’s the case, the one using the bead likely isn’t from the Elf Clan."
The logic is simple: the Elf Clan has ways to replenish the magic energy in the beads; running out of magic energy isn’t an issue for them.
Lu Heng thought of another crucial point and asked, "The flash disappeared suddenly, right? Not intermittently?"
Su Muyu had been observing the signal changes of the Communication Treasure Bead from the start, so she confidently said, "There was no intermittent situation; the flash signal just disappeared suddenly."
Lu Heng imdiately concluded, "Then it’s not magic energy depletion; if it were, and the other party had no way to replenish it, there would be an intermittent signal when the magic energy was almost exhausted."
Su Muyu quickly understood the key and agreed, "It seems the signal from the Communication Treasure Bead disappeared suddenly. This leaves only two possibilities: either it was turned off voluntarily, or it was turned off passively."
Lu Heng’s tone turned somber: "If that’s the case, the situation might not be good."
Whether the person using the Communication Treasure Bead turned it off voluntarily or passively, one thing is confird: the signal sent by the Communication Treasure Bead this ti isn’t a trap.
If it were a trap, the person behind it wouldn’t turn off the signal just as the plan was about to succeed.
Since it wasn’t a trap, and the signal from the Communication Treasure Bead lasted for several hours, it’s clearly a call for allies.
Among human Superpower Users, soone likely possesses a Magic Communication Treasure Pearl, but if they were human, their first choice would be to use their own communication thods when calling for help, not the Communication Treasure Bead.
After all, the chances of receiving a response when using the Communication Treasure Bead aren’t high.
There’s no scenario where a Superpower User possessing a Communication Treasure Bead undergoes testing because if it were a test, it wouldn’t last several hours.
In other words, the person using the Communication Treasure Bead to send the signal is highly likely to be from the Elf Clan.
If the Elf Clan was using the Communication Treasure Bead to seek help and the signal suddenly cut off, it likely ans sothing happened.
...
Lu Heng took out a satellite communication device and sent a ssage to the Southern War Zone’s independent continuous channel:
"Near Mitchell State of the White Eagle Federation, an Abyss Battlefield might have appeared; there seems to be an Elf seeking help. The signal has been cut off, and the target location can’t be found; intelligence support is needed."
After sending out the ssage, the entire intelligence system of the Southern War Zone was mobilized.
Lu Heng’s ssage contained many uncertain words.
An Abyss Battlefield might have appeared, and there might be Elves seeking help—both of these are uncertain information.
These conclusions were drawn by Lu Heng based on personal judgnt, without any information and evidence to support them.
However, intelligence work itself is a process of continuous verification.
Obtain potentially existing intelligence content, then find a way to verify its authenticity.
You can’t ignore it because the intelligence content isn’t complete enough.
Therefore, once the Southern War Zone’s intelligence system received this ssage, they treated it as if it were a confird event and investigated it.
However, the incident occurred in a state of the White Eagle Federation, making it extrely difficult to obtain accurate information.
They couldn’t wait indefinitely for feedback from the intelligence system.
After entering Mitchell State, Lu Heng and Su Muyu headed to Layden City, one of the three bustling cities in Mitchell State.
They had been here before, but previously they had always stayed in the suburbs and never entered the city center; this ti, they were heading to the city center.
It was already seven in the evening, and with the neon lights, the city gained an extra touch of nightlife.
To avoid drawing attention, Lu Heng and Su Muyu wore masks, dressed in ordinary clothes, and walked along the street, observing the city’s situation.
Based on the flash frequency of the Communication Treasure Bead, Su Muyu roughly deduced that the signal was sent from within Mitchell State.
However, Mitchell State is too vast, making it impossible to determine the exact city.
Nor could they even confirm whether it was sent from inside a city.
