#107 - Chapter 107 Surprise Attack and Riot

"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!"

"Su Yingxue, I'm so nervous, what should I do?"

Looking at the densely packed marching routes on the map, Li Sinuo bit her fingernails while staring wide-eyed at Su Yingxue.

"Don't panic, Wu Wei's offensive hasn't fully unfolded yet, so you must relax."

Su Yingxue, as benevolent as a saint, patted her companion's shoulder to comfort her.

"No, no, no, I won't be afraid of that brat anymore."

"What really makes me nervous is that I'm actually going to take second place in the Lord's Trial! I wonder what the reward for second place will be in the Lord's Trial?"

"A legendary hero, a new tech tree, or some kind of upgraded era building?"

"Oh, right, it's not quite right to say I'm second."

"After all, with you, Su Yingxue, this trial is inherently unfair. No matter where you go, you'll be first, so rounding it off...."

At this moment, Li Sinuo was in ecstasy.

"Actually, I should be the first place in this Lord's Trial!? Yahahahaha!"

Hearing this silly girl say that, Su Yingxue slapped Li Sinuo's forehead, right on that thing, pulling her back from her victorious fantasy.

"Don't let your imagination run wild!"

"We haven't won yet."

"Right now, we must still be vigilant against Wu Wei's attack."

"On our territory's defense line, hundreds of scouts have discovered traces of demons, we must be careful!"

Hearing her best friend, oh no, her strong backer, say this, Li Sinuo ran to Su Yingxue's side with a smile.

"Hey..."

Li Sinuo pinched Su Yingxue's cheeks, forcing a smile out.

"Don't be so serious, smile, okay?"

"Haven't we already scouted? Wu Wei's resource production capacity is less than one-seventh of ours."

"As long as we can withstand his first wave of attacks and promptly clear out that era building called the Seed of the Abyss, then we're sure to win."

Li Sinuo's confidence largely stemmed from Su Yingxue's operational abilities.

Under the leadership of this supreme goddess in her heart, the entire northern part of the trial continent was under their control.

Every second, under Su Yingxue's control, this vast territory would provide them with countless resource points.

And this value was still constantly increasing!

With such high resource support, Su Yingxue had even begun planning to break through the third era and build fourth-era era buildings.

Not just the era, the number of troops under Su Yingxue and Li Sinuo was also rapidly increasing.

Because more and more residents who initially didn't recognize Su Yingxue began to gradually acknowledge the kindness of this lord.

Regardless of the race of these residents, they gradually became followers of the Order Gods under Su Yingxue's active or passive influence.

With the blessing of faith, more and more believers in Su Yingxue's territory began to be "inspired", becoming fanatics.

Due to the large number, the power of faith they accumulated in such a short period of time was almost enough for Su Yingxue to recruit a second heroic spirit.

On the other hand, on Wu Wei's side, due to the destructive nature of the demons, many facilities were already in a semi-destroyed state.

If everything in Su Yingxue's territory was vibrant, then the area ruled by Wu Wei was a bit indescribable.

A large number of resource-producing areas only had scarce demon laborers.

The originally vast forests had also begun to thin out due to war and demons.

Even those once-fertile lands had become barren due to the desecration torches.

It could be said that Wu Wei's current territory production capacity was only one-seventh of Su Yingxue's, mainly because he occupied too much land.

And even this "small amount" of production capacity was not being used adequately.

Wu Wei did not use it to expand his production capacity, but instead poured it all into the incubation of demons.

Some overly barren areas even experienced demons eating demons due to insufficient food supplies.

In short, the difference between the two sides in terms of management was not small...

Li Sinuo firmly believed that as long as they dragged on for a few more days, the balance of power between the two sides would be lost.

Because the Lord's War ultimately competed for the potential and productivity of each other's territories!

"No, Li Sinuo, you must not think like this!"

Su Yingxue stopped her best friend's arrogant thoughts.

Standing in the corner of the room, she lowered her head, a hint of shadow appearing on her face.

"Have you forgotten how scared you were by Wu Wei's attack before?"

"Believe me, at that time, he might not have regarded you as a real enemy."

"That level of attack was only equivalent to a small probe."

"And now, having legendary troops, he will only be more terrifying than last time."

"No matter what advantages we have, we must be careful of his sneak attacks."

"I really..."

Su Yingxue raised her head and said firmly.

"Want to win against him once."

"Even if it's just once!"

Hearing the other party say this, Li Sinuo also became serious.

"Okay, okay, I now...."

But before this guy could make up her mind, the level 15 Archmage suddenly pushed open the door.

Then, a piece of bad news hit Li Sinuo like a bombshell, making her dizzy.

"Lord, we have been attacked!"

Su Yingxue was not flustered upon hearing this news.

As if she had expected this news to come, she said calmly.

"Which areas were attacked?"

"..."

Ms. Xia'er was temporarily silent, but she still gritted her teeth and told the truth.

"Except for the royal city where we are, all the cities have been attacked to varying degrees!"

"....."

Hearing this, Su Yingxue was silent.

"How is that possible?"

Li Sinuo was anxious.

"How could it be all the cities?"

"Our defense lines are still there, and the scouts haven't discovered any enemy movements."

"Moreover, why haven't I received a warning from the Heavenly Dao System?"

Su Yingxue spoke.

"The one who delivered this message is the mages cultivated by Ms. Xia'er, right?"

Ms. Xia'er nodded.

That's right.

"The only reason we haven't received a system warning yet is that Wu Wei didn't attack our army first, nor did he attack our civilians!"

"To be precise, he didn't even attack our units."

"Because the ones under attack are Wu Wei's units!"

Su Yingxue closed her eyes and trembled slightly after seeing the scenes in those cities.

At this moment, in those cities, large numbers of people bewitched by demons were, under the guidance of several Fallen ones in a state of madness, launching one sacrificial ritual after another.

Unconscious, they had no idea they were...

Summoning demons to descend!
