Lord Era: I, The Strongest Lord Of The Abyss!

“Lord, you have succeeded!”

Feeling the influence of the Abyss Mother suddenly increase on the continent, Plague Breeder Mara excitedly shouted within Hell.

“I can feel the power of the Abyss Mother enhancing our land.”

Hearing Plague Breeder Mara's words, Hell, along with Imp Matron Caroline and others, nodded in agreement.

After all, Mara and the others, as hero units of the demon race, could sense the Endless Abyss itself more acutely than ordinary demons.

Although in the past they had all served different Abyss Lords, they still shared a common mother: the Endless Abyss.

The strength of the Endless Abyss filled them with sincere excitement and joy.

But unlike the joyful attitude of Mara and the others, Wu Wei, seated upon the Abyss Throne, showed no signs of happiness.

He merely sat there, using his Abyss Heart ability to continuously mobilize the troops in his territory.

“Don't be too happy.”

Wu Wei opened his eyes and said calmly.

“We haven't won yet.”

“In fact, we might not even have a fifty percent chance of winning this war.”

“Everything is still uncertain.”

Wu Wei was different from other lords. Although he constantly sought endless war, he was, in reality, a pessimist!

For his path of war, he always had two or more plans in place, and he always prepared for the worst.

Just like the plan he had implemented within Su Yingxue's controlled territory.

Although Wu Wei had successfully stirred up rebellion and madness in nearly all the cities, most of Su Yingxue's territory remained very calm.

Because, unlike modern society, Su Yingxue, currently only on the edge of the Third Era, didn't have the ability to urbanize her territory.

That is to say, over ninety percent of Su Yingxue's territory consisted of rural areas dominated by farmland, or small town areas centered around mines, pastures, and lumber yards.

These towns were Su Yingxue's true core, the source of her troops and resources.

And within these core areas of Su Yingxue, Wu Wei had failed to launch any rebellion that could be considered successful.

This wasn't because the Fallen weren't strong enough.

It was because the number of Fallen in these areas was simply too small.

As a marginalized group, their numbers ultimately accounted for only about one percent.

After all, under Su Yingxue's religious fanaticism, it was something of a miracle that the marginalized population had reached this number.

So, in the sparsely populated villages and towns, these marginalized individuals were eliminated as soon as they emerged.

Although they were crazy enough and terrifying enough, courage and reason could be washed away by numbers.

Therefore, although Wu Wei's offensive seemed frightening, in reality, everything he had done posed little threat to Su Yingxue.

Most of the city's civilians could survive with the help of priests and soldiers.

Moreover, those terrifying demons who had entered the cities had already been strategically abandoned by Wu Wei himself, treated as expendable pawns.

Because after losing the subsequent reinforcements from the Demon Gate, their survival time was calculated in hours.

In no more than a day or so, these demons would all be killed.

But their deaths were actually valuable.

Because while causing chaos, they also tried their best to destroy the city's infrastructure and delay a large number of Su Yingxue's troops.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the demons within Wu Wei's sphere of influence could finally advance.

Due to the large number of troops delayed by those demons, the resistance faced by many of Wu Wei's demon armies during the advance would be greatly reduced.

It was the sacrifice and destruction of these demons that allowed Wu Wei to gain this opportunity to advance.

However, don't think that Wu Wei was too cruel and inhumane to do this.

In fact, Wu Wei was precisely fulfilling the nature of an Abyss Lord by doing so.

Because he never needed to be responsible for the demons themselves, didn't need to feel sorry for the death of any demon, and even developing emotions towards the demons themselves seemed superfluous.

He, as an Abyss Lord, only needed to be loyal to the Endless Abyss itself.

As long as he could win the war, then he was a qualified Abyss Lord!

So after hearing what Wu Wei said, the other hero units, including Mara, fell silent.

Because they discovered that this human lord before them was becoming more and more like those Abyss Lords who truly existed in their memories.

The fear and awe that came from the soul forced them to remain silent.

Compared to demons, Abyss Lords were actually another kind of more evil, more unsuitable-to-discuss, strange existence cultivated by the Endless Abyss.

This also led to the gradual disappearance of the sense of closeness that Wu Wei had previously given them.

What replaced it was the trepidation and bizarre excitement when waiting for the lord's orders.

“Are you curious as to why I haven’t mobilized you all yet?”

Hearing Wu Wei's words, Mara and the others nodded in agreement.

They were indeed wondering about this.

After all, from the time Wu Wei began to create rebellions and mobilize all available demon armies to Su Yingxue's territory, this group of hero units had not been mobilized.

This was very different from Wu Wei's usual tactics.

A master of war, he would never waste the value of any chess piece.

So it was very strange that this group of hero units had not received any orders after the start of the war.

“Don't worry, the most important thing you need to do now is not to attack, but to improve your strength.”

Wu Wei glanced at his current “ample” resource points and said.

“Currently, I don’t lack too many warriors.”

“What I lack now is enough high-end combat power.”

“So, I am now issuing a new order to you, that is, you each go to the Temple of Sin and the Abyss Sacrifice Platform.”

“Whether you exchange or upgrade new skills from the Temple of Sin, or obtain new equipment through the Abyss Sacrifice Platform.”

“I need you to gain the greatest improvement in the shortest amount of time.”

After saying these words, Wu Wei took out a large number of items suitable for sacrifice on the Abyss Sacrifice Platform, which he had accumulated since entering the Lord era.

Countless precious treasures preserved by various races were placed in front of him, totaling nearly a hundred items.

“After you have improved your combat power, I need you to guarantee that you can defeat the heroes of my enemies on the front battlefield, and...”

“That Saint Carl spirit that I find extremely disgusting!”
