#705 - Chapter 705 What would you choose to do?
“Ah, it's Wu Wei!”
“Wu Wei is back!”
After Wu Wei reached some tacit understanding with the Giant King Ymir, he quickly returned to the War College plane.
As soon as he returned to the War College, he was immediately greeted by many students.
Many students, both male and female, took the initiative to come to Wu Wei and express their welcome to him.
But to be honest, this feeling of being welcomed made Wu Wei feel from the bottom of his heart...
Extremely disgusting!
——————
Looking at the students around him fawning over him, Wu Wei couldn't help but frown.
But soon, Wu Wei understood the real reason why these students were being so attentive to him.
It turned out that Han Xuan, the principal of the War College, after returning to the college, had declared to the outside world that his return was entirely due to Wu Wei's efforts!
In other words, under the attack of this “powerful, brave, and wise” lord Wu Wei, the incredibly powerful Giant King's Court had announced its surrender in just three days and had voluntarily released Han Xuan!
And Han Xuan had exaggerated this boast!
Because whether it was Wu Wei, Han Xuan, or even the Giant King Ymir himself, they all knew.
Wu Wei had not destroyed the so-called Giant King's Court at all.
The reason Han Xuan was released was simply because the Giant King Ymir himself wanted to release Han Xuan!
From another perspective.
Although Wu Wei had successfully killed the Giant King Ymir once.
The existence of the Giant King Ymir was not the key to the Giant King's Court.
Wu Wei could kill the Giant King Ymir.
But the death of the Giant King Ymir would surely anger the entire giant race.
At that time, let alone releasing Han Xuan.
Even Wu Wei himself would be hunted down by the giant race.
So...
For some reason, the released Han Xuan took the initiative to tell a lie for Wu Wei.
A kind lie that instantly increased Wu Wei's reputation several times over!
——————————
“Hey!”
“Old man!”
“What's the meaning of you telling this lie?”
Wu Wei pushed open the door to the principal's office, and as soon as he entered, he questioned Principal Han Xuan.
At this time, Wu Wei was full of questions.
“Oh, you're back?”
However, facing Wu Wei's questioning, Principal Han Xuan himself didn't care.
But Wu Wei cared a lot.
Because Wu Wei noticed that Principal Han Xuan, who had returned to the War College, had completely lost his usual sharpness and boldness.
The Empire's God of War, who was dressed in tattered clothes but gave people a great sense of oppression, had disappeared.
On the contrary, what appeared in front of Wu Wei was Principal Han Xuan, who was acting like a real old man.
At this time, he was wearing a faded War College uniform, and on the desk in front of him, there was a large pile of empty wine bottles.
The once meticulous principal's office was filled with a foul smell.
In addition, Wu Wei also noticed that Han Xuan's face was emitting some extremely unnatural aura.
“Hic...”
Seeing Wu Wei walk in, Han Xuan smiled and hiccuped.
Then, the principal of the War College, the God of War of the Human Empire, showed an obviously drunken expression and waved his hand at Wu Wei.
“Come here, kid.”
“Have a good drink with me.”
After speaking, Han Xuan picked up the wine bottle next to him, poured a glass of wine, and slid it in front of Wu Wei.
Wu Wei frowned and looked at Han Xuan.
And Han Xuan also looked at him.
For some reason, Wu Wei suddenly noticed a trace of pleading in Han Xuan's eyes.
It was as if he really hoped that someone could have this drink with him.
“.....”
After a moment of silence, Wu Wei sat down.
After he sat down directly opposite Han Xuan, he drank the wine in front of him in one gulp.
“Good kid!”
“That's bold enough!”
“Wu Wei, you know, what I admire most about you is this!”
“Everyone else uses various excuses to persuade me not to drink, but only you sit down and drink with me.”
Han Xuan said with a smile.
Wu Wei shook his head while feeling the burning sensation of the alcohol.
“I've never been bold.”
“You should know that, right?”
“Principal.”
Wu Wei raised his head.
“What exactly did the Giant King Ymir say to you that made you become like this?”
“And why did you lie to them, saying that I saved you?”
“Huh? Lie? Hehe...”
Han Xuan, who was obviously drunk, laughed foolishly.
“Didn't you, you silly boy, save me?”
“I didn't lie, after all, the explosion you caused at that time was so loud, I could hear it clearly.”
“And also, Wu Wei.”
Han Xuan held up one finger.
“You have to understand one thing, the reason why I announced to the outside world that you saved me is actually for one purpose only.”
“What purpose!”
“To make you famous!”
Han Xuan said with a drunken, serious face.
“In this decadent and corrupt Human Empire we are in, many lords, even including legendary lords, are not as strong as you.”
“But, if you were to be enemies with them, I can guarantee.”
“The number of people who are optimistic about you will not exceed half.”
Seeing Wu Wei open his mouth to refute, Han Xuan immediately interrupted.
“I know you want to say that other people's optimism is meaningless to you, right?”
Wu Wei nodded.
That was indeed what he thought.
“No, no, no.”
“That's not the case, Wu Wei!”
“Whether other lords are optimistic about you is actually closely related to your future path.”
“You must understand one thing.”
“When you are in conflict with other lords, those lords who are optimistic about you can provide you with various support.”
“But what if they are not optimistic about you, or even look down on you?”
“They will attack you, ambush you, wait for your weakness, and then destroy you.”
“Hehe...”
Han Xuan showed a foolish smile again.
“Do you know why this is?”
“Because you have no fame!”
“In the Human Empire, your hard power is not everything!”
“Only with enough fame can you make those potential enemies of yours fear you, be in awe of you!”
“In short... Wu Wei, you need some fame, and I seized this opportunity!”
After listening to Han Xuan's words, Wu Wei nodded.
What Han Xuan said did make some sense.
But...
“Compared to so-called fame, Principal.”
“I'd rather know why you suddenly became like this?”
“Did the Giant King Ymir say something to you?”
Since Wu Wei and the Giant King Ymir had reached some tacit understanding.
So at this time, Wu Wei knew that the Giant King Ymir and Han Xuan had had some conversations.
However, when Wu Wei asked the Giant King Ymir what he had said to Han Xuan, this cunning giant just smiled and didn't reply.
Therefore, Wu Wei believed that the reason why Han Xuan had become like this was all because of the Giant King Ymir.
————————
However, facing Wu Wei's question.
Principal Han Xuan just smiled bitterly, and after drinking one glass of wine after another.
This old lord, glared at Wu Wei with his bloodshot eyes.
“Wu Wei, let me ask you a question.”
“If....”
“Everything you cherish, everything you once cared about, has disappeared.”
“What would you choose to do?”
When he said this, Han Xuan's face was full of murderous intent and anger!
