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

#664 - Chapter 664: The Hidden Army

Looking at the piles of friend requests in his Heavenly Dao System, Wu Wei frowned.

“What’s going on here?”

Thinking that these people were nothing but trouble, Wu Wei prepared to reject them one by one.

However, he suddenly realized something.

The First Prince, Shi Renjun, had said that after he returned to the era of Lords, some Lords who were loyal to him would contact him.

But Wu Wei hadn't expected them to act so quickly. Soon after his conversation with Shi Renjun, these guys began to move.

Moreover, Wu Wei initially thought that there would only be about seven or eight Lords, as Shi Renjun had mentioned.

But judging from the current situation, there were at least fifty or sixty of them.

Such a large number surprised Wu Wei.

He was amazed by the First Prince's power and the number of subordinates he had.

Together, these Lords could form a medium-sized guild.

And Prince Shi Renjun could make such a powerful force directly obey him....

This made Wu Wei wonder if Prince Shi Renjun was deliberately showing off his strength.

——————————

However, considering his own interests, Wu Wei ultimately accepted their friend requests.

The moment their requests were accepted, these Lords immediately sent Wu Wei various messages that were similar in content.

They basically introduced themselves, their affiliations, and the help they could provide.

Secondly, after realizing Wu Wei's identity, or rather, his value to Prince Shi Renjun was greater than theirs, they all began to flatter him in various ways.

But Wu Wei, blinded by greed, ignored all such information.

In his opinion, such flattery wouldn't help him improve his strength.

However,

among the hundreds of messages that kept pouring in, Wu Wei noticed one Lord whose message was very special.

This Lord offered “help” in the form of extremely rare artifacts and an unlimited supply of standardized equipment.

“Artifacts and an unlimited supply of standardized equipment?”

After reading this Lord's message, Wu Wei immediately thought of the Fallen Angels...

...and the Abyss Church followers they commanded.

Wu Wei thought of these fallen followers because he had been commanding demons in battle for a long time.

So the number of Abyss Church followers had remained complete, and even increased daily.

Moreover, due to the laziness of the Fallen Angel, Wu Wei didn't really know how many Abyss Church followers Liz possessed.

More importantly, these Abyss Church followers were completely different from demons.

Compared to the bloodthirsty and terrifying demons, these fallen ones were more like ordinary beings who had “gone astray”.

Although they didn't have the Abyss Seed buff of the demons, they could fight automatically without Wu Wei's Abyss Codex.

In fact, the Fallen Angel Liz herself could command them.

This had its advantages and disadvantages.

The disadvantage was that their upper limit was far lower than that of the demons commanded by Wu Wei.

The advantage was that their lower limit was stronger than that of demons not commanded by Wu Wei.

So, naturally, when Wu Wei saw that this Lord could provide him with an unlimited supply of standardized equipment, his first thought was to arm these fallen ones, who hadn't fought in a long time, to prepare for future wars.

But before that, Wu Wei needed to ask the Fallen Angel about the number of fallen ones she had.

Soon, Liz, who had been slacking off all day, reluctantly came to Wu Wei.

Although she hated being called upon by the Lord to work, when she heard that Wu Wei wanted to know more about the Abyss Church followers, especially their numbers, her eyes lit up.

All her previous laziness disappeared, replaced by a shrewd and capable demeanor.

“Lord, if I'm not mistaken,”

“according to yesterday's statistics, the total number of Abyss Church followers in my three planes (Liz had requested three planes from Wu Wei to use as strongholds for the Abyss Church) is twelve million and three thousand.”

“Oh, it's expanded to... wait, wait a minute!”

Suddenly, Wu Wei on the Abyss Throne froze.

He felt that his ears, after returning to the real world, seemed to be malfunctioning.

“You said ho... how many?”

“Twelve million and three thousand!”

Liz didn't know why Wu Wei was so surprised.

“Have you forgotten? Many of the natives from the planes you invaded were dragged to Biljin's side to become demon slaves.”

“But among these demon slaves, I carefully selected some promising ones and brought them to my plane's cities, making them followers of the Abyss Church to prepare for your future conquests.”

“Wait a minute!”

Wu Wei covered his eyes.

“You guys...”

“You Abyss Church, have your own cities?”

“Why not?”

The Fallen Angel Liz smiled.

“We not only have our own cities, but we also have our own complete system of order: Fallen Chosen, Fallen Believers, Sinners, Slaves....”

“Oh, right, although I hate that [Decaying Lifeform] guy, we still like the weapons, especially the firearms, that he provides to our Abyss Church members.”

Hearing this, Wu Wei couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

This Abyss Lord never imagined that in his own Abyss territory,

Liz could secretly possess such a terrifying army.

Moreover....

Unlike the foolish demons,

at the same time, Wu Wei realized something.

That was, when he first obtained the Devil's buildings, he seemed to have overlooked something very important.

The Abyss Mother had given him a building that could be used to amplify the Abyss Church.

And the name of this building was [Abomination Factory]!

A special building that could transform powerful demons into [Demon Engines] for the Abyss Church followers to use!
