#397 - Chapter 397 Command
“Master Silas…”
Upon hearing this name, Wu Wei's first thought was, does this person also know Master Silas?
But he quickly realized.
As a veritable member of the Blood Clan, a genuine [Long-lived Species], Master Silas's lifespan was far longer than human leaders like Wu Wei.
More crucially, as an important figure within the Eternal Night City, Master Silas himself had close ties with many technological alliances.
Over so many years, the number of humans who had traded with Master Silas was definitely not small.
Therefore, from this perspective, it was natural that Master Silas might know Han Xuan.
Thinking this, Wu Wei nodded.
“Okay, I understand.”
He retrieved the special metal ball as he spoke.
At this moment, Han Xuan noticed the unnatural look on Wu Wei's face and asked uneasily.
“What's wrong, Wu Wei, has something happened?”
“No…”
Wu Wei shook his head.
Although Han Xuan had a high position within the Empire, judging from his appearance, he seemed to know nothing about [Chaos].
In this situation, Wu Wei naturally didn't need to say much to him.
After all, the fallen angel Liz had warned him.
The world he was in had long been contaminated by Chaos.
However, these things contaminated by Chaos were actually hidden.
Rather than blindly exposing himself, Wu Wei decided to keep it a secret from Han Xuan.
“Alright… I'm leaving.”
Wu Wei put the silver ball into his private space and turned to leave Han Xuan's office.
But at this moment, Han Xuan suddenly stopped Wu Wei.
“Wait, Wu Wei.”
“What's wrong?”
Wu Wei turned his head to look at Han Xuan.
“I just received some new internal information.”
“A female leader named Zhou Li, for some reason, betrayed the Human Empire and fled human society.”
“In addition, before she fled the Human Empire, she cruelly murdered several human leaders.”
“So?”
Wu Wei tilted his head, somewhat puzzled.
Feeling indifferent towards the Empire, he didn't care about the so-called leader's defection.
Moreover, he already understood that the essence of the War College was to overthrow the corrupt order of the Empire, so he himself didn't care about this matter.
But Han Xuan was very dissatisfied with Wu Wei's attitude.
“What do you mean, 'so what'! Wu Wei, I must tell you something.”
“What the War College wants to overthrow is the corrupt imperial order, not the so-called Human Empire.”
“And we are humans!”
“As members of the human elite, you and I have an obligation to eliminate those traitors who betray humanity!”
“This is not for the Empire, but for all of humanity!”
Han Xuan stood up and threw a badge into Wu Wei's arms.
“In short, a week later, our War College will dispatch troops to that human leader's territory, kill all her people, burn her territory, and take her head.”
“And you will be one of the commanders of this operation.”
Hearing Han Xuan's words, Wu Wei frowned.
“Commander is fine, but why 'one of'.”
“If an army cannot obey the same will, then what difference is there between it and a mob?”
“It's not impossible for me to command, but my requirement is full command!”
“If you are the first to cut off Zhou Li's head, I will give you an extra 25% of your academic credits.”
“Deal!”
Wu Wei stretched out his hand like a chameleon, wanting to shake hands with Han Xuan.
One second he was speaking eloquently, and the next he was full of smiles.
“Pleasure to work with you.”
“Pleasure my ***, I am your principal, you money-grubbing brat!”
Han Xuan glared at the young student who only recognized money, and helplessly sat back down, waving his hand.
“Go, go.”
He felt that if Wu Wei stayed in his office any longer, his heart would fail.
————————
Wu Wei walked out of the principal's office.
After leaving, he didn't waste a second and walked towards his teleportation gate.
During this time, many students saw him and tried to communicate with him.
But Wu Wei ignored all of them, walked directly into his teleportation gate, and then returned to the Endless Abyss.
“Ah… Lord, you're back?”
As soon as he returned, Wu Wei saw Liz, who was in the middle of a brawl with a group of demon heroes, greeting him.
At this time, the beautiful fallen angel was wielding her scythe, confronting Hendricks.
And at her feet lay the corpses of several demons.
“You are…”
Wu Wei was about to ask why the fallen angel Liz and Hendricks had a conflict.
But after a slight turn of his mind, he dismissed the idea.
After all, unlike other leaders, Wu Wei was an Abyss Lord.
He was actually used to this situation.
Because his demons were too belligerent, to the point that they had big and small conflicts every day, Wu Wei could now be said to be numb to it.
“Forget it.”
“Liz, I have something to ask you.”
“What is it?”
“In this world, is there a metal that can completely isolate the aura of Chaos?”
After speaking, Wu Wei raised the silver ball in his hand.
