#493 - Chapter 493: Rats in the Dark
Wu Wei lied.
At least, he lied in front of all the lords who followed him.
The reason for saying this is that, in Wu Wei's view.
The war he was experiencing was not boring at all.
To be precise, for Wu Wei, every war has its beauty.
But he told these lords that he thought the war was boring, and there was a reason for it.
That is, he already knew that this war was not as simple as he thought.
This seemingly ordinary war to exterminate the enemies of the empire is actually a collection of huge conspiracies.
The reason why he thought so was that the forces that appeared in this war to exterminate the enemies of the empire were far more than just Zhou Li and the Imperial Academy.
In addition to these two forces on the surface.
There are at least three hidden forces in this war.
And these three hidden forces that Wu Wei already knew about are the forces of the imperial prince Shi Renjun, the Night King's forces, and the forces of the other princes who are hostile to the Second Prince.
Each of these three major hidden forces has ulterior motives and is enough to give Wu Wei a headache.
But the good news is that, in a sense, Wu Wei, who accepted the commission from Prince Shi Renjun, should also be considered one of these three hidden forces in essence.
But the bad news is that Wu Wei might not be.
The hidden force that Wu Wei himself is in is the weakest of the entire three hidden forces.
Whether it is the Night King's forces or the forces hostile to the Second Prince Shi Renjun.
These three forces all have extremely strong strength.
Just from the actual combat effectiveness of the Night King's personal soldiers, Wu Wei doesn't think he can win against the real Night King's forces on the frontal battlefield.
Not to mention the forces of the other princes who are hostile to Prince Shi Renjun.
Wu Wei absolutely does not believe that after Shi Renjun found him and issued the commission, the other princes would not find suitable helpers to fight against him.
And the more crucial point is that Shi Renjun is very rich.
As an imperial prince, he is rich enough to do whatever he wants.
But aren't the other princes the same?
So Wu Wei guessed that the other princes, in order to break Prince Shi Renjun's layout, are very likely to have found several, or even dozens of, helpers.
And it is because of this....
That's why Wu Wei delegated his command to all the lords who belonged to him.
The real purpose of his delegation of command was precisely to find out the hostile forces hidden in his part.
Only in this way can Wu Wei ensure that his subsequent opportunities will not have major flaws due to someone betraying him.
And Wu Wei is so confident that he can do this by delegating command, because he now possesses the upgraded War Vision skill.
Under the surveillance of War Vision, Wu Wei is fully capable of discovering the slightest clues through every little action of every lord.
Once Wu Wei discovers the clues, then it can be predicted that...
As a lord of the abyss, he will definitely use the most cruel and the most cold-blooded methods to secretly deal with those who may pose a threat to his plan!
Thinking of this, Wu Wei showed a sneer.
He looked at the lords below who were coming and going, constantly directing their soldiers to the battlefield, and completing the mission objectives arranged by Wu Wei, and showed an incomparably kind smile.
"Let me see, what will you little mice do?"
But then....
Just as Wu Wei was watching these lords, a pair of eyes hidden in the dark noticed Wu Wei.
The owner of these eyes seemed to have guessed Wu Wei's intentions in some ways.
But unfortunately.
It couldn't confirm this......
A secret game is taking place in this small command post.
And this secret game may not be as bloody and direct as the battle on the frontal battlefield, but it is equally full of danger!

[A new Abyss Seed has been planted!]
[A new Abyss Seed has been planted!]
[A new Abyss Seed has been..........]
With the system's notifications, a rare look of surprise appeared in Wu Wei's eyes as he stood in the command post.
Obviously, in addition to finding those hidden mice, Wu Wei had his own other plans.
However, these are almost not so brain-burning, nor so troublesome.
Wu Wei's other plans can be said to be extremely simple.
He plans to take advantage of this war to plant a new Abyss Seed in each of the eight planes owned by Zhou Li, and then drag all eight planes into the abyss.
Although these eight planes have all reached the end of plane development, and there are basically not many resources left.
At least.
The resources of these eight planes are not as good as most medium-sized planes.
But Wu Wei still plans to do so.
There is only one reason.
He needs these eight planes, not because he needs the resources of these eight planes.
What he really needs is to use these eight planes to provide him with eight opportunities to upgrade the abyss demons.
At this time, Wu Wei, who already has three demon upgrade opportunities, has long tasted the sweetness given to him by the Abyss Seed.
That's why he has such a bold idea.
However, Wu Wei's doing this is actually a bit unreasonable.
Because this is the "trophy" of the War Academy!
Of course, although Zhou Li has not died yet, nor has she been defeated.
However, in the eyes of the War Academy, these eight planes are still the trophies of the War Academy.
And according to common sense, all the trophies belonging to the War Academy should be uniformly distributed and managed by the War Academy.
But obviously, after Wu Wei planted the Abyss Seed, these planes will become his private property after twenty days.
In this way, Wu Wei's approach is obviously not in line with the regulations of the War Academy.
Moreover, Wu Wei's doing this is actually very unfair to the other students.
Because the eight Abyss Seeds planted by Wu Wei are not all the planes he attacked and occupied.
The other seven Abyss Seeds were all planted behind the armies of other academies.
Although these seven Abyss Seeds are Wu Wei's private property, they are protected by all the students of the War Academy.
Otherwise, these terrible dark seeds would definitely be blown up shortly after being planted.
In other words, Wu Wei took advantage of others in this battle.
And it's still a big advantage!
And the other students are not fools either.
Although they cannot understand the so-called Endless Abyss, they have learned about the special era building of the Abyss Seed through Wu Wei's information.
They must have complaints about this.
And Wu Wei, at this moment, is going to solve this problem.
But his solution to this problem is actually more rude and simple than the problem itself.
Because he directly reported his behavior to the principal of the War Academy.....
Of course, after planting the Abyss Seed.
In other words.
Wu Wei is actually acting first and reporting later!
——————————————
"Wu Wei, you damn little bastard!"
"Are you a little too greedy?"
In the communicator, Han Xuan's loud voice made Wu Wei's ears ache.
And anyone who hears Han Xuan's voice can guess that Han Xuan is in extreme anger at this time.
However, Wu Wei behaved very calmly about this.
"Greedy?"
"I don't think so!"
"Hehe, Principal, you must believe me, I have a reason for doing this!"
Very rarely, Wu Wei called Han Xuan Principal.
After hearing the other party call him that, Han Xuan's anger was also calmed down a lot.
But he still disagreed with Wu Wei's approach.
"Don't care what the reason is!"
"Wu Wei, you quickly take down all your Abyss Seeds!"
"Although the value of these eight planes is not very high, this is not a matter of value, but a matter of procedure!"
"If you want a plane, I can give it to you."
"But you can't use this method to pick up leaks!"
"The War Academy is not a place where you can pick up leaks at will!"
Hearing Han Xuan say this, Wu Wei smiled.
Then, he came to a place where no one was, and told Han Xuan all his guesses, along with the commission given to him by the Second Prince.
"So, so, so..."
"That is to say, only after I bring all these eight planes under my command."
"Can this battlefield mission be considered truly resolved!"
"Otherwise, you and I will have a lot of trouble later!"
As expected, when Han Xuan heard Wu Wei's description, he was also stunned on the spot.
"What? Are you sure! You're not lying to me, are you!"
"Of course I'm sure!"
Wu Wei smiled.
Hearing Wu Wei say this, Han Xuan's face gradually became ugly.
Because he didn't expect that there would be so many hidden forces involved in this battlefield mission he arranged.
No.
To be precise, he didn't expect it.
When he was trying to "scheme" against the Night King.
He was actually schemed against!
And the most crucial thing is.
Han Xuan, who knew the internal strife of the royal family, suddenly realized a new problem.
That is.
The War Academy has actually been infiltrated by the royal family without his knowledge!
This is the biggest problem!
