#170 - Chapter 170: Peeping into the Xiling Empire
“Achoo!”
On the other side, Wu Wei, who was completely unaware of the strange battle that had just taken place in the Endless Abyss, sneezed inexplicably.
In fact, this was the Endless Abyss reminding Wu Wei in some way, and definitely not because he had caught a cold or anything.
However, due to the chaotic nature of the Endless Abyss, in its absolute chaos, it inadvertently chose to remind Wu Wei in such an inefficient and incomprehensible way.
But all in all, the Endless Abyss had “tried its best” to remind Wu Wei.
Whether he understood it or not was his own problem, wasn't it?
————————————
However, the appearance of this sneeze made the Fallen Angel Liz Olsen, who was beside Wu Wei, stunned for a moment.
“Um, Lord.”
“As a Lord of the Abyss, do you also catch colds?”
However, Liz Olsen, noticing this, narrowed her eyes and suddenly had a mischievous idea.
“Oh right, Lord, do you think that damned fat worm is secretly retaliating against you, causing you to have cold symptoms?”
Hearing what the Fallen Angel said.
Little Mara, who was forced to perch on Wu Wei's shoulder because Hel had gone out to fight, was instantly furious.
“You...you you you....you damned black-winged *expletive*, how dare you slander me?”
“My, my loyalty to the great Lord far exceeds yours tenfold, a hundredfold!”
“Oh, really?”
Liz Olsen, whose face was extremely beautiful but whose mind was as deep as a black hole, laughed directly.
“Then why doesn't our great Lord usually sneeze at all, but as soon as you come to the Lord's shoulder, he starts sneezing?”
“Doesn't that just prove that you're the one causing trouble?”
“Lord, I humbly suggest that you carefully consider the loyalty of these demons.”
“After all, how could they, who do not believe in the Abyss Master, know what true loyalty is?”
“You...you..”
Mara was infuriated to the extreme by the extremely cunning Liz Olsen.
Being both socially awkward and a bit stuttering, she didn't know what to say for a moment, and could only shake around on Wu Wei's shoulder like a stimulated caterpillar, trying to find words to refute.
“Hey....didn't I say.”
“In the future, in front of me, especially when I launch a war, you guys are not allowed to fight among yourselves?”
“And....”
Wu Wei glared at the beautiful Fallen Angel and said.
“Don't slander Mara, I don't have a cold, the sneeze just now might have just been an allergy.”
The reason why Wu Wei was so sure was because he glanced at his status bar.
He currently did not have any disease status.
So, the previous sneeze was just a coincidence.
Hearing Wu Wei say this, Liz Olsen, standing behind him, smiled and replied.
“Yes, great Lord of the Abyss.”
“I will obey your orders, forever!”
However...at the moment she said this, the Fallen Angel Liz Olsen actually made an extremely contemptuous face at Mara.
And due to the angle, Wu Wei, who was facing away from the Fallen Angel, did not see this action.
Poor little Mara, if she could beat Liz Olsen, she would have rushed up and pulled off one of her black feathers no matter what.
“By the way, Liz.”
Wu Wei suddenly remembered something and said.
“The Abyss Cult followers you sent out before should have reached the border of the Hill Empire by now, right?”
“Didn't you say before that you could bring the Hill Empire into our camp just by your own ability without me using the demons, or at least be able to use the people in their empire and cultivate a large number of Abyss followers if you couldn't win them over?”
The Hill Empire is a large force in the world of [Raven's Habitat].
And this Hill Empire, like Wu Wei, is also at war with the undead army.
However, Wu Wei didn't care about the other party at first.
After all, he, who led the demon army, never thought of having any allies.
The only things he needed were powerful heroes and a large number of obedient warriors.
However, the Fallen Angel Liz Olsen made some small requests for improvement to Wu Wei's approach.
Because in the eyes of the Fallen Angel, the residents of the Hill Empire actually have extremely high value, at least after becoming Abyss followers, they will gain extremely high value.
Therefore, destroying everything in the Hill Empire at will is not conducive to Wu Wei's current battle situation.
Because of this, Liz Olsen, wanting to prove herself, made a request to Wu Wei.
That is, she can take most of the value of the Hill Empire into her pocket with only the Abyss followers she has and a little bit of Wu Wei's resource help, without using the demon army.
Of course, the act of winning over is actually just Liz's polite remark.
She and Wu Wei don't care whether the Hill Empire will be destroyed.
The only thing she cares about is whether she can establish enough value in front of the Lord.
However, in Wu Wei's view, Liz Olsen's proposal is actually very tempting.
After all, in the current situation where the undead and demons are in a stalemate, and the demon side is facing increasingly high risks, if Wu Wei can obtain a large number of warriors out of thin air, then the battlefield situation is likely to be reversed.
Of course, all of this is under the condition that Wu Wei does not activate the final plan to counterattack the undead race.
That's why Wu Wei agreed to Liz Olsen's proposal and let her try it out.
Anyway, it doesn't matter even if she fails.
After all, the value of that batch of earliest Abyss Cult followers is basically zero in the current battlefield where hundreds of people die every minute.
——————————————
“Now, how are those Abyss followers who have already reached the border of the Hill Empire doing?”
Hearing Wu Wei's question, Liz Olsen immediately put away her previous frivolous appearance and replaced it with an extremely serious and professional expression.
“Lord, your keen observation and command judgment shock me.”
“Please rest assured, the fallen followers I sent have already begun to spread the black sun, oh no, spread your glory at the edge of the Hill Empire.”
“In time, we will harvest a large number of usable soldiers and a large batch of new Abyss followers!”
“However, it is also at this time that the moment I mentioned to you that I need a little help from you has arrived.”
Olsen said with a smile.
“I may need you to redeem some skills for me from the Abyss Cult Sanctuary.”
Hearing Liz Olsen say this, Wu Wei nodded.
“Okay, I can trust you.”
“Since you need me to redeem skills for you, then you and I will return to the Endless Abyss first.”
‘That's right, I also need to return to the Endless Abyss to get the Lord skills I've accumulated before.’
Wu Wei's harvest in the Lord's Trial had not actually been used up.
In addition to those precious Lord skills, the Abyss Codex that Wu Wei had fused was also not fully developed in some ways.
Therefore, Wu Wei, eager to obtain more combat power, took the beautiful Fallen Angel Liz Olsen back to the Endless Abyss.
But in reality, Liz Olsen “lied”, or rather, she didn't tell all the truth.
Because those fallen Abyss followers she sent out did not have any meaningful equal exchanges with the existences of the Hill Empire.
There is no possibility of cooperation between the two sides at all.
And.
Those fallen Abyss followers are currently launching terrifying sacrificial rituals in countless villages of the Hill Empire.
And their actions are ten thousand times more terrifying than the undead for those poor Hill Empire people!
She is selecting new fallen followers in the purest way, with the most cruel and depraved means!
