Chapter 1344 - Balance and Entry (1/2)
A day later, in the conference room of the three Universal Civilizations…
“You plan to use the Sanctum Revival and recall our direct descendants?”
Marbruce, Louis, and the Pope opened their eyes wide and stared at Han Xiao’s remote projection in shock.
Han Xiao spread out his hands and said with a serious expression, “The World Tree has plenty of experts. Due to their special mechanism, their Beyond Grade As will not decrease, and they have been accumulating to their current size. Because of wars and other reasons, we have lost many Beyond Grade As. Although we managed to repel a wave of attacks from the World Tree this time, they did not bring out all their high-level combatants. We have to increase our Beyond Grade As to slowly reverse the disadvantage of individual strength.”
The three leaders looked at each other in surprise.
When they signed the agreement, they did not make a condition that Black Star must revive the direct descendants. They knew that the Beyond Grade A Association was still wary of the three Universal Civilizations. Even if there were foreign enemies, Black Star might not awaken their direct descendants and increase his competitors’ strength.
Thus, when Black Star took the initiative to mention this, the three of them were pleasantly surprised. Regardless of whether Black Star wanted to share the pressure of the association members or purely for the sake of the war, this method was beneficial to them.
The direct Beyond Grade As of the three Universal Civilizations, including the National Pillars at the level of Clotti and Oulou, were guardians of different eras. If they could summon all of them, it would be a huge supplement to the high-level combatants of the three Universal Civilizations.
“This is a wise choice. I’m glad to see that you’re willing to consider the big picture.”
Marbruce was full of praise.
Han Xiao paid his praise no mind. He raised his finger and said, “However, there is one condition. These resurrected direct descendants must join the frontlines.” “Of course.” Louis nodded. He understood what Han Xiao meant. It was impossible for them to let the resurrected direct descendants sit back and watch the association members fight to the death.
“Alright, we have a consensus. Let’s talk about the cost.” Han Xiao put down his hands.
“Cost?”
“Do you think this is free?” Han Xiao raised his brows.
“Not at all, tell me the price.”
The Pope shook his head.
Because Black Star’s act of suddenly providing help was a little righteous, the three of them almost thought that it was free. However, they all came back to their senses now and knew that with Black Star’s personality, it was impossible for him to let go of this opportunity to make a huge profit. Although both parties were currently in a partnership to resist the foreign enemy, the services that should be paid for would not be free. After all, they were only allies.
The three of them did not have any objections to this. Now was the time to beg for help. It was not easy for them to have the opportunity to revive their direct descendants. No matter how high the cost was, they had to pay it.
Han Xiao opened the virtual screen, made a list, and sent it to the three of them. The three of them quickly browsed through the list. The list was filled with all kinds of resources, materials, and weapons. Although it was expensive, it was within an acceptable range. “You want these things?”
“That’s right. This is the price for the Sanctum Revival.”
“Sure.”
Marbruce agreed. Han Xiao nodded. There were materials for the Sanctum Key in the list. He could use the three Universal Civilizations to gather materials and provide him with access to the Sanctum. This was equivalent to spending the three Universal Civilizations’ money to increase his Sanctum authority.
“When do you plan to start?” Louis asked.
“Destiny’s Child surveillance has already confirmed that the World Tree Civilization will not make any big movements in the near future. I will use the Sanctum Revival soon.” Han Xiao nodded, then paused and said, “Also, when I use the Sanctum Revival, I will temporarily leave the main universe for about three months. During that time, I will be out of contact. During my absence, Hila will be in charge of relaying the information of Destiny’s Child surveillance channels.”
“Three months…” Their hearts sank.
If the World Tree did something during this period, without Black Star, there might be variables…
The three of them suddenly realized that they had unknowingly developed a certain amount of reliance on Black Star. Ever since they discovered the World Tree, Black Star’s actions had given them most of their current advantages, and he had accumulated a lot of trust. He was a special consultant, and to a certain extent, the three of them treated Han Xiao as their backbone in dealing with the World Tree Civilization.
Without Black Star, they subconsciously felt less confident.
“If you’re worried that the World Tree will send the Tree King again, you can let Wuornos participate in the battle. With his ability, it won’t be a problem for him to stop a Tree King,” Han Xiao said.
In his previous life, Wuornos did not participate in the war, and this time, he was still one of the few Beyond Grade As who had not been recruited. It was very strange. Han Xiao was also very curious why the Arcane Church did not send this b*stard out. Even if his main body did not go to war, he could have sent a few God Embodiments.
“There are some special reasons. It’s not convenient for him to make a move.” The Pope shook his head.
“What special reason is more important than the threat of the World Tree?” Han Xiao raised his brows.
When he fought with Han Xiao, he was full of energy, but when it was time to face the enemies, he had all kinds of excuses. Could it be that Wuornos was the type of person who was submissive to the outside world and domineering toward his side?
“… In any case, there are some reasons.” The Pope kept his mouth shut and suddenly changed the topic. “By the way, can you unseal the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter?”
“Wuornos is not participating in the battle and still wants me to unseal his weapon?” “Even if we don’t let him use it, the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter is still a powerful weapon against individual strengths.”
“We’ll see.”
Han Xiao did not comment. The Ten Thousand Deity Scepter could indeed increase the combat power of high-level combatants, but he did not intend to unseal it yet.
After a pause, he said, “I need to obtain some mediums related to the revival target. Which direct descendants do you want to revive? Give me their mediums in the next few days.”
The three of them nodded.
They were also organizing people to study the Sanctums, and this was the first time they had heard that the Sanctum Revival required a medium. However, it made sense when they thought about it. If they did not need a medium, then even the Beyond Grade As of other unknown civilizations could be revived at will.
“One more thing,” Han Xiao said. “This time, I will revive a portion of the direct members of the Super Star Cluster Alliance.”
“Hmm?” The trio’s expression changed slightly.
At this moment, the three of them thought of many things and subconsciously thought that this was Black Star’s way of keeping them in check.
Resurrecting the direct descendants of the three Universal Civilizations was a threat to the Beyond Grade A Association. Thus, Black Star deliberately revived the direct descendants of the Super Star Cluster Alliance, forming a tripartite balance that hindered the three Universal Civilizations. This method could also explain the reason for reviving the direct descendants of the three Universal Civilizations. In consideration of the war situation, the three of them, as the beneficiaries of this reason, had no way of rebutting
“Don’t think too much about it. I just made a deal with the Super Star Cluster Alliance in the past, and I don’t intend to go against this deal,” Han Xiao replied casually, ignoring the gazes of the three.
“…Of course.” The three of them adjusted their mentality and regained their composure.
