This suggestion was very constructive, and the three leaders immediately took it seriously. After thinking for a while, they quickly finalized the preliminary plan with Han Xiao and then asked the strategic command center to withdraw the orders to the direct troops of the three Universal Civilizations.
The goal of the three of them was to destroy the World Tree, not to fall out with Black Star on purpose. Although they were unwilling to accept that Han Xiao had subdued the World Tree, there was no point in arguing about this.
Marbruce and the others could only suppress the fear in their hearts and wait for the future to discuss a targeted plan. Anyway, there was nothing they could do now. They could not really start a second round of war with Black Star … Who won or lost was secondary. A third party might still be eyeing them in the dark.
Even if they wanted to fall out, they should at least wait until they had a direct Transcendent. Wuornos was their greatest hope. He might even advance one day.
The direct troops of the three Universal Civilizations stopped firing and retreated, silently withdrawing from the encirclement. The tense atmosphere quickly faded.
The short confrontation between Han Xiao and the three Universal Civilizations had stunned the soldiers of the Galactic Alliance Army. Realizing that the conflict between the two sides had reappeared, they were very nervous. They were afraid that they would have internal strife after winning and start another war.
Seeing that both sides had stopped, countless people heaved a sigh of relief. No matter what kind of conflict there was, the three Universal Civilizations were the main force against the World Tree, and Black Star was the hero who changed the situation. They were all heroes in the war. They had just joined hands to defeat the enemy, and now, they had turned against each other in front of everyone. It was hard to accept. No one wanted joy to turn into sorrow.
However, the World Tree was not destroyed but was subdued by Black Star. This reality made many people feel strange.
Although Black Star had contributed too much to the war, this last wave?
It made them suspect that Black Star was using them to achieve his goal … Of course, that was the case.
Black Star might have a reason for this, but the impression he gave everyone was still quite complicated.
However, no one was too bothered by this.
Very quickly, they threw this thought to the back of their minds.
The conflict between Black Star and the three Universal Civilizations?
That was a conflict between big shots, and it was not their place to worry about it.
These frontline combatants only wanted to enjoy the ecstasy of victory and the joy of surviving a calamity.
"We won!"
"May the Empire last forever!"
For a while?
The battle channel once again rang with the cheers of countless soldiers.
It was deafening.
The officers did not stop them and allowed their subordinates to vent their emotions. In fact, they were also excited and could not help but celebrate with their subordinates.
The other side?
Han Xiao removed the Supreme Celestial Venerate?
Retracting his troops, he passed by the direct troops of the three Universal Civilizations who had given up on stopping him and returned to the army of the Beyond Grade A organizations. The Beyond Grade As immediately surrounded him.
"That was close. I thought the three Universal Civilizations were going to insist.
He didn't hesitate to start a civil war. "
Sun Hunter wiped his non-existent cold sweat.
Kasuyi casually analyzed, "That won't be the case. They still have a good grasp of the situation.
We are clearly on Black Star's side, and Black Star has obtained the World Tree Civilization's troops?
The three Universal Civilizations did not dare act recklessly. They knew what the result would be.
I won't seek my own death. "
"Speaking of which?
Isn't His Excellency Black Star taking too many risks this time?
We didn't know about your plans beforehand … "
Some people muttered softly. Many association members looked at Han Xiao strangely. These people did not know about it beforehand.
Because there was a Supercluster spy in the association, Han Xiao did not want to leak the news in advance, so he only told Kasuyi and his other confidants about his plan to subdue the World Tree. To the entire association, it was to prevent the three Universal Civilizations from plotting against the World Tree.
Therefore, not long ago, some of the association members were still in the dark. Even if they had doubts, they did not confirm it. They could only follow the original plan and cooperate with their teammates to trip up the direct troops of the three Universal Civilizations, buying time and creating opportunities for Han Xiao. They did not dare to act recklessly.
To be honest, if Han Xiao had expressed his goal of subduing the World Tree from the beginning, many Beyond Grade As would have felt that they might not have been willing to help him. They would have been more inclined to completely destroy the World Tree like the three Universal Civilizations … After all, the World Tree was quite similar to the Underworld, but its power was one step higher. It could control the thoughts of individuals. Even if Black Star was temporarily one of them, who knew what would happen in the future?
If one day, Black Star's ambition reached the limit and he wanted to use the World Tree to devour everyone, what would they do? In the past, Black Star did not have such thoughts because he had not obtained the World Tree … Many Beyond Grade As had no choice but to consider their own safety from their own point of view, and they were secretly afraid.
Seeing the complicated expressions on the faces of many Beyond Grade As, Han Xiao did not mind and smiled.
He smiled and said, "Everyone, don't worry too much. I subdued the World Tree for other reasons. One of them is to use the power of the World Tree to make the three Universal Civilizations hesitate and consolidate the safety foundation of our Beyond Grade A Association after the war. This way, the three Universal Civilizations will completely give up and give up on suppressing us. Only then can we put down all our worries."
Manison nodded slowly and agreed.
"This is similar to what I thought back then. However, we were still young back then, and it was not the right time. My thoughts were too advanced. Now that our forces have expanded rapidly with the help of the war, the time is ripe. The strategic significance of the World Tree is actually the same as the Virtual Mutiny Virus, but it is more suitable as a strategic deterrent weapon to make the three Universal Civilizations not dare to attack us again. "
With that, Manison gave Han Xiao a look of admiration, as if saying, "We are indeed the same kind of people."
He was also afraid of the threat Han Xiao would pose after obtaining the World Tree, but if he were in that position, Manison would have made the same choice. How similar was the current situation to when he snatched the 'Virtual Mutiny Virus' from the tiger's mouth? However, he had failed, and Black Star had succeeded.
Hearing this, no matter how unhappy some of the association members were, they could not say anything. The main reason was that what was done was done, and there was no point in objecting.
Seeing this, Aurora changed the topic and said with a smile, "We won this war. Everyone, be happy."
Hearing this, everyone relaxed and smiled … No matter what, this was the time to enjoy the victory. They still had to give face to their nanny.
"We've finally dealt with this strong enemy. We can take a break."
"Heh, I've been so tired all these years. Don't wake me up until I sleep for a month."
"After enduring the difficult times, a beautiful tomorrow awaits us."
The Beyond Grade As were relieved of their burdens, and they chatted and laughed with each other.
At this moment, someone thought of something.
"By the way, Black Star, when do you plan to revive the Beyond Grade As who died recently?"
In the war in the past year, some more Beyond Grade As had died in battle. Han Xiao had not had the time to revive them, and their names were still hanging on the Soul Comfort Monument.
"After a while. I still have some things to do, so I can't leave for the time being, especially the matter of establishing a civilization's regime … The timing, location, and people are all in our hands. I've convinced the three Universal Civilizations to temporarily track down the third party. Taking advantage of this buffer time, let our people complete the final preparations for the association's transformation. When the time comes, everything will be done in one go."
Han Xiao replied casually.
He took out the technology of the Information Form Warning Network and convinced the three Universal Civilizations to search for the third party enemy. On one hand, he did not want the enemy to continue lurking and reap the benefits. On the other hand, he temporarily shifted the focus of the three Universal Civilizations and bought time for the association's final preparations.
The two plans were carried out in parallel, killing two birds with one stone. This way, he would be busy, and he had to make the best use of his time. For the time being, he did not have the time to study how to complete the Virtual Creation.
However, speaking of the Sanctum Revival, Han Xiao thought of the problem of Iterations.
He had once planned to reveal the information of the Sanctums to the three Universal Civilizations at the right time and work together to study how to survive the Iterations. In the past, the time was not ripe. Now that the World Tree was in his hands, he truly had the foundation of an equal force. This plan could officially be put on the agenda.
If he remembered correctly, there should still be a related mission lying in his interface.
Because of the World Tree's alchemy-like material transformation ability, he did not have to worry about collecting the materials for the Sanctum key in the future and could generate a new key at any time. To him, most of the Sanctums were his backyard, so he was not afraid of the three Universal Civilizations studying the Sanctums together. The other party did not have such unique conditions.
"This time, it's really a dragon riding on the face …"
Han Xiao was secretly overjoyed.
The World Tree mechanism coupled with the Sanctums had unimaginable prospects. The two were a perfect match.
He secretly decided that when the situation after the war completely stabilized, he would show his cards to the three Universal Civilizations and pull them to study the Sanctums together.
Instead of letting these people spend their energy on how to deal with them, it would be better to let them study how to solve the problem of the Iterations so that they would not waste resources on internal conflicts.
"To be honest, I've definitely touched the galaxy …"
Han Xiao shook his head.
I've really worried so much for the peace of the universe. It's not right if I don't get a few tons of medals.
At this moment, Ames came over with a playful expression and said with a smile that was not a smile, "You've made a huge profit this time. The entire galactic society suffered heavy losses in the war, and trillions of lives died in the war. In the end, you became the biggest beneficiary. What do you think?"
"What, are you trying to wake me up from my shame? Then you've found the wrong person. " Han Xiao shrugged and said frankly, "I ended the war early and saved countless lives. The dead are gone, and the living are still alive. You're asking me what I think? Of course, I have a clear conscience. "
Ames shrugged. "Alright, there's nothing wrong with thinking that way. After this war, you'll be extremely respected. You won't be as busy as before, right … How about it, take some time to accompany me? "
Han Xiao was a little tempted and was about to speak.
However, at this moment, Jotina suddenly appeared and interrupted with a cold snort.
"Lady Dragon Emperor, the Army Commander doesn't have that much free time. Don't keep pestering him. It will only make him troubled."
Hearing this, Ames raised her eyebrows and turned to look. Jotina also glared back, not to be outdone. Their gazes collided in midair, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Han Xiao sensed a wave of killing intent, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He quickly flew to the side, not wanting to be involved in the battle between the two women.
He saw the two women staring at each other. One of them was calm and dignified, while the other was aggressive, with obvious provocation in her eyes. Both of them did not back down, and neither of them cared about Han Xiao and ran away.
"Sigh, it's all my fault for being too outstanding …"
Han Xiao sighed helplessly.
He flew to the side alone, thought for a while, and took out the Spacetime Amber of the Heart Tree King.
After obtaining the World Tree, Han Xiao had completely understood the mechanism of the Tree King and the Tree God. He realized that the Ancestral Tree King had left him a mess.
The Beyonder's Vestige had been completely burned, the crown had been completely shattered, and the military strength had been greatly depleted. The high-level combatants were almost completely wiped out, and the World Tree Civilization could be said to have suffered a great loss. It would take many years for them to recover.
However, Han Xiao did not mind. After all, if he did not beat the enemy to such a state, he would not have had the chance to subdue the World Tree. He understood that he could not have both the fish and the bear's paw. There was no need to be pretentious after obtaining the greatest benefits.
However, Han Xiao originally had an idea. If the time and price were right, it was not impossible to sell Wuornos a Beyonder's Vestige in the future.
Now, he could not give it to him even if he wanted to. Old Wuornos had missed the chance to advance to the Transcendent Grade once again. Han Xiao could only say that it was fate.
He was also very lucky …
"Right now, the only intact Tree King crown is on the Heart Tree King. This guy has become the only seedling in my hands …"
Han Xiao shook his head and laughed.
Although the members of the World Tree were brainwashed to be loyal, they were not puppets without self-awareness. They had independent thoughts and their own lives. His entry into the World Tree Civilization did not affect these things. In other words, controlling the World Tree was equivalent to using his own will to replace the will of the mother tree. To the World Tree Civilization, the two had the same meaning.
Therefore, Han Xiao also needed to find someone to manage the World Tree Civilization. Due to the 'waste' of the Ancestral Tree King, there was only one Tree King left in the World Tree for a long time. The Heart Tree King was the best choice.
With this in mind, Han Xiao did not hesitate and removed the amber.
Pop!
The Heart Tree King broke free from the seal and retreated without another word. His entire body glowed, and he was about to self-destruct.
After being locked in the Spacetime Amber for so many years, the Heart Tree King regretted not being decisive enough back then. He had told himself countless times that as long as there was a chance to undo the seal, he would immediately free himself.
However, just as he was about to self-destruct, the mental network of the World Tree connected to him again. The message made the Heart Tree King suddenly stop moving, and his expression became extremely shocked.
"The World Tree Civilization … lost?!"
He quickly received the information in the mental network and finally understood the war process during the years he had been sealed.
"The Ancestral Tree King, the Secret Tree King, the Fortitude Tree King, the Subduing Tree King … They are all dead, along with the Tree King Crown. Instead, I became the last surviving Tree King …"
The prosperous World Tree Army was blown away just like that. His familiar colleagues were all wiped out, and even the entire civilization belonged to someone else. He had a new master … After more than ten years, things had changed.
For a moment, the Heart Tree King was stunned on the spot. His heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Han Xiao did not interfere with the Heart Tree King's acceptance of reality.
At this moment, he said, "I believe you already understand why I let you out. I need you to help me manage the World Tree Civilization. It might not be a bad thing for you. As long as you do well, you will be the only Tree King for a long time. I will not interfere with your management too much. You will be under one person and above billions of people."
The Heart Tree King came back to his senses and looked at Han Xiao with a complicated expression.
He did not expect that the culprit who had sealed him back then would become his superior the moment he woke up. Due to the World Tree's mind control, the Heart Tree King could not feel any hostility toward Han Xiao.
"… I understand. I'll follow your will."
The Heart Tree King sighed and lowered his head to agree. He did not have the right to refuse.
Han Xiao nodded and clapped his hand. The Heart Tree King turned into a green stream of light and entered his body, returning to the mother tree world.
After doing this, Han Xiao turned around and looked at the excited crowd. He smiled and did not participate. Instead, he changed into the King and disappeared.
