Through observing the regional chat interface, Zhang Tianle was able to confirm that this Level 10 Dungeon Lord was definitely the entity behind the Great Xia Alliance.
Because at this stage, it was impossible for another Dungeon Lord to possess such strength, not only having incredibly powerful Adventurers under his command but also being able to easily expand his territory.
After all, time and resources were limited…
It was basically impossible for two powerful Dungeon Lords to emerge at the same time.
After guessing this, Zhang Tianle couldn't help but sigh.
He hadn't expected…
Was his boss behind the scenes that rich?
Damn it!
It seemed he had asked for too little earlier…
Looking at the current situation, asking for 100 soul crystals earlier would have been nothing!
However, after realizing Chen Yu was this wealthy, Zhang Tianle consciously put away his petty schemes.
Because he knew one thing…
When a boss behind the scenes became rich to a certain extent, he wouldn't even need to ask; just a tiny bit flowing down from this boss's hands would be enough for him.
So, the most urgent task now was to show his loyalty.
He needed to make this boss behind the scenes see him and remember him. Currently, the entire Great Xia Alliance only had the three of them, and this was the easiest time for the boss to notice his existence…
Thinking of this, Zhang Tianle immediately sent a message to Li Siya:
"Alliance Leader, is there anything I can do for you?"
"I noticed the walls of the castle in the Scorching Wind Grassland seem a bit dirty. How about I send my trolls to clean them and wipe the walls clean? My trolls are quite experienced in cleaning."
"Alliance Leader, I see you've been busy building watchtowers recently. To be honest… I got a perfect score in defensive infrastructure at school, and my trolls are also well-suited for this kind of work. I'm sure they can satisfy you."
"Alliance Leader…"
Zhang Tianle transformed into a corporate bootlicker, frantically flattering Li Siya.
He was also very smart.
He knew it was impossible for him to directly connect with the boss behind the scenes.
Since the boss behind the scenes supported Li Siya, no matter what their relationship was, what he needed to do in the future was to build a good relationship with Li Siya.
As long as he was a good lackey to this second-in-command, benefits would surely follow.
As long as he followed the right person this time, when the Great Xia Alliance developed, as one of the first elders, and an elder who knew how to flatter, his status would not be too low no matter what.
Like Zhang Tianle, Li Siya was equally shocked.
Even if she didn't know what it meant for a Dungeon Lord to reach Level 10 at this stage, the regional chat channel had already provided the answer.
This was definitely a walking gold mine.
Just a slight shake would yield a huge wave of resources.
Compared to Zhang Tianle's petty thoughts, Li Siya thought a bit more deeply.
There was still some worry in her eyes.
"Now almost all the War Lords in the region know that there is a Level 10 Dungeon Lord. In the eyes of these War Lords, this is an incredibly tempting resource point."
"Towards such a Dungeon Lord, most War Lords adopt an attitude of either using them for themselves or destroying them, because if an opponent obtains them, it would be a disaster…"
"In this situation, I absolutely cannot let everyone discover Chen Yu's existence, otherwise it will easily attract attacks and plunder from the Lord Alliance. They will not allow Chen Yu to continue developing."
"It seems the alliance's development needs to speed up!"
Li Siya's mind was more focused on potential future accidents.
And she had to do her best to prevent this accident from happening…
At the same time, in the territory of another Dungeon Lord, an interesting drama was also unfolding.
"Xu Zi, don't leave!"
"How can I live without you, Xu Zi…"
Zhao Hailiang tightly gripped Wu Chengxu's hand, crying bitterly.
It turned out that just now, upon learning of the appearance of a Level 10 Dungeon castle, Wu Chengxu had already taken his contract and run over, demanding that Zhao Hailang terminate his contract with him.
Thus, this scene unfolded…
Regardless of Wu Chengxu's character, his strength was undeniable.
Compared to Li Ruoshu, there was certainly a significant gap.
But compared to Chu Yunxiao, Chen Jiu, and others, his operations and strength were on par.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the ace of the Chang Xu Strategy Group back then…
Having spent this much time together, Zhao Hailiang was also clear about Wu Chengxu's strength.
At the very least, finding food and hunting monsters was not a problem.
Two days ago, he even opened up a small village.
However…
Zhao Hailiang's own castle hadn't been fully built yet, let alone expanding his territory.
As a result, this small village was eventually abandoned, making Wu Chengxu feel like he was trying to prop up a rotten wall.
But Zhao Hailiang was also very aggrieved.
He hadn't expected that after coming with full confidence, his castle would end up developing like this.
Even the Happy Chequers, which he had previously imitated and copied, had to declare bankruptcy and close down because its income was less than its daily maintenance costs, and he ultimately had to ruthlessly remove it from his territory.
This wave directly resulted in a loss of eight or nine hundred soul crystals, causing Zhao Hailiang such heartache that he couldn't sleep at night.
Even the acting IP Dungeon, Punishment of the God of Destruction, had seen a significant decrease in revenue recently.
The number of Adventurers coming to play was only 5% of its peak period.
This traffic didn't just get cut in half; it plummeted to rock bottom, making him feel dizzy and almost faint.
He recalled the time at the Awakening Plaza when he was mocking and ridiculing his classmates, telling them to just wait for death.
But now…
He himself was in the ranks of those waiting for death.
His family had spent a fortune to buy him a top-tier Dungeon IP, originally hoping he could earn back several times the amount in soul crystals.
Now, let alone earning, it would be good enough if he could just save his own life.
"Quickly terminate the contract. If you don't, don't blame me for being impolite later," Wu Chengxu said ruthlessly, showing no mercy.
Terminating a contract required the Lord's consent.
From the contract terms, the dominant party was certainly the Dungeon Lord, but this didn't mean that Contract Adventurer could be slaughtered at will.
Wu Chengxu had many ways to deal with Zhao Hailiang.
Unless Zhao Hailiang refused to terminate the contract and intended to perish together with him.
But…
As a rich second generation, Zhao Hailiang didn't want to die.
In the end, he could only reluctantly terminate the contract.
