Chapter 1999: Chapter 1999: Even Sending the Princess Is Useless

No matter what others think, the development of the world cannot shift according to their ideas.

The other empires have no knowledge of Du You’s background. Although the legends have reached their hands, ten or so war gods, how could they believe such things? This is definitely the result of exaggeration upon exaggeration.

However, the strength of this new empire is formidable, and that might be possible.

Thus, they began small-scale probing, first increasing troops at the border, but the other side did not react.

Then, a small deployment of troops was sent out, and the other side resisted, but appeared very feeble.

With this, the other empires felt reassured. "It seems they really have no power now. Although they won battles with two empires, their own forces are probably stretched to the limit."

"It seems so, based on the probing results, if they still had the power to fight us, they wouldn’t be so weak. At least, their forces controlling such a large country might not be easy. Taking this opportunity, we can expand our territory and devour a region to make it our own."

Many people became moved; expanding territory is not merely expanding the empire’s lands.

If successful, one could gain new territory. Whether for their descendants or second or third children, they would have the right to become lords, and major lords at that.

Some nobles without territory could also use these lands to become new lords.

Though this world is not a nobility-driven system, these privileged naturally feel superior and indeed can’t endure the troubles of lacking territory. This isn’t just about identity; it’s also a symbol of one’s power and status.

Now, with such an opportunity, how could everyone give it up?

Thus, on the basis of collective planning, soon the empire’s forces were mobilized. Moreover, several war god powerhouses of the empire were dispatched to ensure the smooth conduct of this war.

When they launched a full offensive, Du You was pleased; finally, this day had come.

"Very well, they’ve voluntarily started an attack, so counterattacking won’t be a problem. Order our people, take the troops and start the counterattack. Just leave two to guard against their sneak attacks."

Du You himself isn’t afraid of sneak attacks, but he couldn’t fight if he could avoid it, due to the strength he possesses.

If more than tier 4 power is exposed, he’ll be easily repelled, and he doesn’t want to leave this world now.

And the maids around him no longer felt much fear. After spending some time together, everyone had come to know a bit about Du You. Although he seems very ambitious, at least that’s how they saw it. However, Du You has a good temperament and is quite approachable, treating everyone well.

After spending some time, everyone at least believed that as long as the bottom line wasn’t crossed, they should be safe.

As for why Du You wanted to control the world, it could only be said that there are too many ambitious people in this world. Moreover, his ability is far stronger, so maybe it wouldn’t be a bad thing if he actually achieved it.

As a maid of the world’s ruler, perhaps their fate would be better than before.

Many felt filled with anticipation, but of course, some felt filled with despair, as everyone’s thinking was different.

Yet no matter what they thought, war broke out directly. Due to the enemy’s attack, the empire’s interior dispatched a large number of elite soldiers, supported by a subsequent logistics team, and tier 4 Doppelgangers led the troops to directly confront the invaders.

No, it wasn’t just blocking them; this was a direct clash.

The fact proved, they had the strength for this. The direct clashes rendered the enemy powerless to resist.

The army was no match, and when the powerful ones they brought intervened, they found the opposing numbers greater and stronger. The initial breakthroughs showed strength they couldn’t contend with.

The people of this world, often after breaking through tier 4, had no more progress.

Since these are Derived Worlds without a world will of their own, the world does not resist, and local experts don’t experience major breakthroughs, nor do local powerhouses enhance their strength in battle. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Facing such overwhelmingly strong enemies, they were no opponents and could only be systematically eliminated.

The defeat at the front line deeply wounded their vitality, and by the time they reacted, the Doppelgangers had already led the troops deep into their country, starting an invasion.

At this point, everyone finally realized something was amiss, but it was already too late.

"Your Majesty, this was clearly intentional, showing weakness to provoke our attack, then counterattacking justifiably."

"I’m not asking about that now; what I want to know is what we should do."

Everyone was silent. What to do? The absolute power disparity left them helpless. While many might usually boast about being capable of anything, faced with an overwhelming force, no scheme had its use.

Seeing everyone silent, the king had no other choice but to announce the dispersal of the meeting.

But delaying the time here was pointless, as the battles on the battlefield won’t slow down.

The army advanced quickly, and soon, the closest Black Mountain Empire couldn’t hold out any longer. With half of their national territory taken by the enemy, they didn’t know how long they could continue to resist.

Hence, the empire finally couldn’t bear it and sought negotiation, even sending out the princess at once.

"Haha, they truly think I’m a lustful person."

"Boss, what do we do, should we send her back?"

Du You thought for a moment, then said, "If sent back, her fate might not be good." These aren’t empty words; such princesses who are sent back without achieving their goals never have it easy afterward.

"Forget it, keep her here, but we don’t need to accept their negotiations. Keep attacking, and we’ll talk once we’ve won."

"Boss is really domineering, I like it." Somehow, this Doppelganger too caught the cheeky bug. After speaking, the Doppelganger turned to leave, leaving Du You with no choice but to laugh.

Having a tiff with one’s Doppelganger is the same as having a tiff with oneself.

On thinking this, Du You was no longer angry and continued with the subsequent tasks. As the army advanced, the Black Mountain Empire’s dream was finally shattered. When they realized something was wrong, what was left but to protest?

The army was slaughtered, and the nation was completely occupied. The two neighboring empires now weren’t having it easy either.
