#53 - Chapter 53 The Real Target
Hearing this, Gu Changqing couldn't help but raise his head.
The other party was actually...
Wu Wei?!
Not only was Gu Changqing somewhat surprised, but even his companions behind him were very astonished upon hearing the name Wu Wei.
Because Wu Wei's name spread far more efficiently in the school than that of the Gu family's eldest son.
That good-for-nothing who only ranked first in one course, while consistently ranking last in all other subjects?
How could this be?
Why would he possess such a powerful army? According to common sense, shouldn't his management be a complete mess!
Gu Changqing's face turned pale. He hadn't expected that the first lord to defeat a large force on the trial continent would actually be Wu Wei.
Moreover, he seemed to have just declared war on all the forces on the entire trial continent?
But Gu Changqing had no way to ask these questions.
Because the Gibbering Mouther had already left the area where he was and returned to the abyss.
Watching the Gibbering Mouther's back, Gu Changqing secretly became ruthless.
"Wu Wei, since you and I cannot share the benefits of the dwarf kingdom, then let me reorganize my army and drive you out of this territory."
"Since you want war, then I will give you war!"
Initially, Gu Changqing did have plans to form an alliance with Wu Wei.
But now, he had completely abandoned this idea.
Firstly, Wu Wei's refusal was too decisive.
He not only insulted Gu Changqing and the Gu family behind him but also contemptuously called him a waste and disdained to ally with him.
Secondly...
The current Gu Changqing no longer bothered to ally with Wu Wei!
After Gu Changqing learned Wu Wei's true identity, he felt that Wu Wei was unworthy.
In his eyes, the current Wu Wei was just a lucky kid who had some "fortuitous encounters."
The army he possessed, the plague ability he wielded... even his ability to defeat the dwarven army, all of it was just the luck of this utterly hopeless student!
Now consumed by greed, Gu Changqing decided to seize this opportunity to reorganize a massive alliance, eliminate Wu Wei's army, and thus turn the former dwarf kingdom into his own dominion.
So, after the second battle between the dwarf kingdom and the demon army ended, Gu Changqing and a considerable number of other lords voluntarily withdrew from the dwarven alliance.
Even when the dwarf king frantically cursed their shamelessness and betrayal, vowing to inform the world of their abandonment of allies, they left resolutely.
Because they knew that the dwarf king was already a corpse.
The curses of a corpse were meaningless to them.
Shortly after they left, the dwarf king and the remaining dwarven warriors were destroyed by the third batch of demon armies created by Wu Wei, becoming stinking corpses on the battlefield.
And Wu Wei finally entered the dwarf royal city as he wished.
A royal city where more than sixty percent of the population had already died.
And perhaps coincidentally.
The moment Wu Wei sat on the throne that originally belonged to the dwarf king, the entire trial continent simultaneously received a deliberately spread message.
That the new lord who controlled nearly half of the underground kingdom was Wu Wei himself.
His identity was exposed.
Along with his identity, the data of his demon warriors was also exposed!
Although the demon data that each lord who had fought against the demon army provided to others was somewhat different.
The specific attributes of the demons were still known to them.
In addition, Wu Wei's plague skill used to conquer the dwarven cities was also marked as a priority by many lords.
Whether it was the onset time of the disease or the fact that people easily overlooked the existence of plague flies, all of it was exposed by Gu Changqing and others.
More importantly, from the moment Wu Wei stepped into the dwarf royal city.
Countless rumors had already told everyone that Wu Wei's next target was to attack the remaining dozen or so underground towns of the dwarf kingdom that had not yet completely fallen.
And Wu Wei's marching route was exposed to all the lords.
Some of these marching routes were correct.
Some were wrong.
But in general, most of the marching routes were logical and were indeed what Wu Wei intended to use.
It could be said that Wu Wei's every move was being monitored by countless lords.
Every lord was paying attention to Wu Wei's movements.
Every lord was thinking about how to carve out a piece of Wu Wei's territory for themselves.
Every lord was thinking about who to form an alliance with in order to better destroy Wu Wei, who had no allied forces.
Countless lords became envious.
After all, the benefits of conquering the dwarf kingdom were too great, so great that it was impossible for them not to be tempted.
Therefore, while Wu Wei had achieved great success, he also faced extreme danger.
More and more lords began to probe Wu Wei in subtle ways.
They were trying to find suitable weaknesses in Wu Wei's territory's defenses to attack.
But Wu Wei never cared about them.
This arrogant abyss lord simply ignored the probing of these ants while conquering one after another of the unfallen dwarven territories at a speed that no one could react to, turning them into his own territory.
As the desecration torches were lit one after another, Wu Wei's territory became larger and larger.
He was gradually growing into a behemoth, a behemoth that seemed to pose a sufficient threat to others!
Faced with such a rapidly growing behemoth, many lords began to unite, either actively or passively, in order to curb his growth.
However, there were still a few lords who gave an alternative attitude towards Wu Wei's performance.

"Wu Wei."
"So you appeared a long time ago."
Su Yingxue looked at the map and said with a smile.
"I really don't know what means you will use this time to get through this extremely chaotic war?"
"Although others think that your declaration of war on everyone is the behavior of a madman, only I know."
"You are doing this to make the trial continent more chaotic, because only in this way can others not see your true goal..."
The area that Su Yingxue was looking at.
Was a desert!
What exactly is Wu Wei's goal?
