A day later, in the meeting room of the three Universal Civilizations.
"You're planning to revive the Sanctum and summon our direct descendants?"
Marbruce, Louis, and the Ethereal Pope stared at Han Xiao's remote projection in the room with surprise.
Han Xiao spread his hands and said seriously, "The World Tree has countless experts. Due to a special mechanism, the number of Beyond Grade As will not decrease, and they have accumulated to their current scale. As for us, due to war and other reasons, our Beyond Grade As have been lost time and time again. Although we repelled the World Tree's attack this time, they did not bring out all their high-level combatants. We have to expand the scale of the Beyond Grade As to slowly reverse the disadvantage in terms of individual strength. "
The three leaders looked at each other and were pleasantly surprised.
When they signed the agreement, there was no clause that restricted Black Star from reviving the direct descendants. They knew that the Beyond Grade A Association was still wary of the three Universal Civilizations. Even if there were external enemies, Black Star might not awaken their direct descendants to increase the strength of their 'competitors'.
Therefore, the three of them were pleasantly surprised when Black Star took the initiative to mention this matter. Regardless of whether Black Star was doing it to share the pressure of the association members or purely for the sake of the war, this was beneficial to them.
The direct descendants of the three Universal Civilizations had generations of Beyond Grade As, including 'National Pillars' like Clottey and Oulou, who were guardians of different eras. If they could all be summoned back, it would be a huge supplement to the high-level combatants of the three Universal Civilizations.
"This is a very wise choice. I'm glad to see that you're willing to consider the big picture."
Marbruce exclaimed in admiration.
Han Xiao did not mind and raised his finger. "However, there's a condition. These revived direct descendants have to join the main battlefield."
"Of course." Louis nodded. He understood what Han Xiao meant. It was impossible for the revived direct Beyond Grade As to sit behind the scenes and watch the association members fight for their lives.
"Alright, since we have such a consensus, we can talk about the cost." Han Xiao put down his hand.
"Cost?"
"Do you think this is free?" Han Xiao raised his brows.
"No, tell me the price."
The Ethereal Pope shook his head.
Due to the righteous nature of Black Star's sudden offer of help, the three of them had nearly believed that it was free of charge. However, now that they had snapped out of their daze, they knew very well that with Black Star's temperament, it was unlikely that he would let go of this opportunity to make a fortune. Although the two sides were currently in a partnership to defend against foreign enemies, the services that should be charged couldn't be free. After all, the two sides were only allies.
The three of them had no objections to this. Now was the time to beg for help. It was rare for them to have a chance to revive a direct descendant of history. No matter how high the cost was, they had to bear the pain and pay.
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. There were all kinds of resources, materials, and weapons on the list. Although they were expensive, they were still within an acceptable range.
"You want these things?"
"That's right. Follow the list. This is the price to exchange for the Sanctum Revival."
"Sure."
Marbruce agreed readily.
Han Xiao nodded. There were still materials for the Sanctum Key on the list. Borrowing the power of the three Universal Civilizations to collect materials and provide for him to enter the Sanctum 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's surveillance has confirmed that the World Tree Civilization won't make any big movements in the short term. I will use the Sanctum Revival soon." Han Xiao nodded, paused, and said, "Also, when I use the Sanctum Revival, I will temporarily leave the main universe for about three months. During this time, I won't be able to contact you. During my absence, Hella will be in charge of relaying the information from Destiny's Child's surveillance channel."
"Three months …" The three of them felt their hearts sink.
If the World Tree made any movements during this period, without Black Star, there might be changes …
The three of them suddenly realized that they had unknowingly developed a certain level of dependence on Black Star. Ever since they discovered the World Tree, Black Star's actions had established most of their current advantages and accumulated a very high degree of trust. He was extremely competent as a special consultant, and to a certain extent, the three of them almost treated Han Xiao as the backbone to deal with the World Tree Civilization.
Without Black Star around, they subconsciously felt less confident.
"If you're worried that the World Tree will send another Tree King, you can let Wuornos participate in the battle. With his abilities, it won't be a problem for him to block a Tree King," Han Xiaoxin said.
In his previous life, Wuornos did not participate in the battle, and this time, he was still one of the few direct Beyond Grade As who was not drafted. 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, he could have sent a few god incarnations.
"There are some special reasons that make it inconvenient for him to make a move." The Ethereal Pope shook his head.
"What special reason can be more important than the threat of the World Tree?" Han Xiao raised his brows.
When he fought with me, he was full of energy, but when facing external enemies, he had all kinds of excuses. Could it be that Wuornos was the type to be submissive to the outside world but to the inside world?
"… Anyway, there are some reasons." The Ethereal Pope kept his mouth shut. Suddenly, he changed the topic and said, "By the way, can you unseal the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter?"
"Wuornos is not participating in the battle, and he's asking me to unseal his weapon?"
"Even if he doesn't use it, the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter is still a great weapon against individual strength."
"We'll see."
Han Xiao did not comment. The Ten Thousand Deity Scepter could indeed increase the combat strength of high-level combatants, but he did not plan to unseal the Arcane Church yet.
After pausing for a moment, he spoke again.
"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, and their hearts skipped a beat.
They were also organizing people to study the Sanctums. This was the first time they knew that the Sanctums needed a medium to revive. However, it was normal. If they did not need a medium, wouldn't even the Beyond Grade As of other unknown civilizations be able to revive at will?
This time, Han Xiao added, "One more thing. This time, I will revive some of the direct descendants of the Supercluster Alliance."
"Hmm?" The expressions of the three of them changed slightly.
At this moment, the three of them thought of many things and subconsciously thought that this was Black Star's way of balancing the three of them.
Reviving the direct descendants of the three Universal Civilizations was a threat to the Beyond Grade A Association. Therefore, Black Star deliberately revived the direct descendants of the Supercluster Alliance, forming a tripartite balance to restrict the three Universal Civilizations. This method could also be explained by reviving the direct descendants of the three Universal Civilizations. Considering the overall situation of the war, the three of them, as the ones who benefited from this reason, could not refute.
"Don't think too much. I just made a deal with the Supercluster Alliance in the past. I don't plan to go against this agreement," Han Xiao ignored their gazes and replied casually.
"… It's only right." The three of them adjusted their mentality and regained their composure.
Many of the direct descendants of the Supercluster Alliance had died in the Tragedy of the Pinnacles. The hatred between the two sides was deeply rooted. Once they were revived, it would definitely be troublesome.
However, the Sanctum Revival was controlled by Black Star, so they could only accept this change. Furthermore, the three of them believed that as long as their direct descendants were revived, they would not have to worry about the Supercluster Alliance causing trouble.
The two sides quickly reached a consensus. Just as Han Xiao was about to end the communication, he suddenly thought of something and asked,
"By the way, how's the progress of the secondary dimension expedition team?"
"There have been some losses, but we still haven't found anything." Marbruce shook his head.
Hearing this, Han Xiao sighed.
The World Tree Civilization still did not know that they had sent troops to search for the main body long ago. The secondary dimension expedition team was the true winner of the three Universal Civilizations.
…
In the Supercluster Alliance's joint conference room.
After meeting the leaders of the three Universal Civilizations, Han Xiao immediately went to the Supercluster Alliance. At this moment, the leaders of the Supercluster Civilizations were all in the room, staring at Han Xiao.
"Black Star, the results of your battle this time are shocking. Before you came, we were still talking about you."
"If we didn't know your abilities, we would have thought that the enemy this time was very weak."
The leaders of the civilizations praised him.
"It's not bad. It's mainly because the Beyond Grade As worked together." Han Xiao casually replied. He observed the expressions of the leaders of the civilizations present and quickly calculated in his mind.
With his understanding of the Supercluster Civilizations, these people were most likely looking forward to waiting for the three Universal Civilizations and the World Tree to suffer so that they could take over. Therefore, seeing such low losses, the Supercluster Alliance might not be too happy.
He remembered that in his previous life, the Supercluster Alliance even had a plan, which was to take their civilization and leave the explored universe while the three Universal Civilizations were fighting the World Tree. They thought that the three Universal Civilizations would not have the energy to stop them and could only watch them leave.
However, after experiencing the perverted strength of the World Tree Civilization, the Supercluster Alliance understood that this was akin to drinking poison to quench thirst. In the end, they did not use this plan and wholeheartedly cooperated with the three Universal Civilizations to fight the enemy.
Han Xiao estimated that the Supercluster Alliance most likely had similar thoughts. After being bullied by the three Universal Civilizations for so long, it was impossible for them not to have considered this route.
Just as he was thinking, the Star Arc Leader knocked on the table and asked,
"Black Star, why are you contacting us this time?"
Han Xiao calmed himself down and said, "I'm here to fulfill the agreement."
"Which agreement?"
"I promised you ten direct Beyond Grade As for the Sanctum Revival. Now is the time."
As soon as he said that, the Star Arc Leader and the other leaders of the civilizations were overjoyed.
After reaching an agreement, the Supercluster Alliance quickly gathered the revival fees and handed them to Han Xiao. However, it was Black Star who had the final say on when to revive. They did not know how long Black Star would drag it out, but they had already paid the deposit, so they could only wait patiently.
Now, they had finally become the mother-in-law!
This spare tire was worth it!
As expected, in the end, everything was available!
The Star Arc Leader suppressed his excitement and said, "Got it. Do we need to prepare anything?"
"We need some mediums …"
Han Xiao repeated his explanation to the three Universal Civilizations, and everyone nodded.
After explaining, Han Xiao looked around at everyone's expressions, smiled, and said, "There's another thing.
I'll still give you ten slots for the next revival. You still need to buy them. You can discuss among yourselves if you want to increase the price. "
"Of course we accept," the Star Arc Leader immediately said.
Ten slots were far from enough to revive all the historical Beyond Grade As of their Supercluster Civilization. Since Black Star was willing to sell another ten slots, there was naturally no reason to refuse.
"You don't have to be in a hurry to bid. It won't be too late to wait until I bring this batch of revivors back."
Han Xiao waved his hand.
The two sides exchanged a few more words before hanging up.
Only the leaders of the civilizations were left in the conference room, and their faces finally revealed joy.
"When our direct descendants return, our plan will be even more confident. Black Star has helped us greatly this time."
The Star Arc Civilization leader took a deep breath and was excited.
What they did not know was that Black Star, who only gave them ten slots each time, sold an unlimited number of revival slots to the three Universal Civilizations.
…
Two days later.
Somewhere in the Ancient Star Desert.
The spaceship of the Holy Covenant Organization was floating in the starry sky, warming up the equipment and preparing to open the Sanctum channel.
Han Xiao stayed in the main ship and was talking to Hella and the other upper echelons.
"While I'm using the Sanctum Revival, the army will be under your command. Pay attention to preserving your strength … If the World Tree makes a move, Aurora, you have to pay attention to protecting yourself. It's best to persuade Manison, Kasuyi, and the others to temporarily be your bodyguards. This time, the World Tree has lost quite a number of experts, so they won't revive so quickly. The intensity shouldn't be too high …"
"Don't worry, I have the strength to protect myself now." Aurora nodded.
"However, you have to be careful. If anything happens, you'd better evacuate. I've provided Herberlon with some Kings. Although he hasn't participated in the battle for the time being, if there's any danger, he'll use his Mechanical Force to teleport you away …"
After giving some instructions, Han Xiao handed over the command to the officers before hanging up.
"If you're done, shall I begin?" Oathkeeper asked.
"Come on."
Han Xiao nodded.
The order was passed down, and rays of light shot out from the spaceship of the Holy Covenant Organization and entered the key of the First Sanctum.
Very soon, a familiar scene appeared again. The shadows of six light gates appeared, and only one was left, which turned into the passageway to the First Sanctum.
Han Xiao took a deep breath and turned into a meteor, diving into the Sanctum passageway.
The next moment, the light gate quickly shrank, and a slender light flashed past, like the scene when an old-fashioned television was turned off.
Under everyone's gazes, the Sanctum passageway and Han Xiao disappeared together, leaving nothing behind.
Oathkeeper exhaled.
The annoying guy was gone … He could finally experience the feeling of being the boss again!
