Upon hearing this, Lin Zhu, who was preparing to launch an even more ferocious attack, paused.
She looked in the direction Zhao Qingcang was pointing and then realized that there were other people nearby.
Her frosty face flushed red instantly, and she quickly withdrew her magic.
The wildly dancing vines withered instantly, turning into specks of green light that dissipated into the air.
Lin Zhu straightened her slightly disheveled white dress, regaining her cool and dignified deanor, but still glared fiercely at Zhao Qingcang, who was falling from mid-air.
Zhao Qingcang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, coughed twice, and was about to step forward to greet Chen Huaishuo.
However, when he turned around and his gaze inadvertently swept over the huge object floating in mid-air, exuding an ancient aura, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
That's... the pendulum of life?
Zhao Qingcang's youthful face, which had been smiling, instantly turned extrely gloomy, and a terrifying aura of the supre commander of the Great Xia swept out like a storm.
"Old Chen..."
Zhao Qingcang turned his head and his gaze fell on Chen Huaishuo.
"Are you senile? You actually used the pendulum of life to revive us?"
"How could you do such a thing as the acting commander-in-chief of Great Xia!"
At this mont, Zhao Qingcang's voice contained no joy at being reborn, but was instead filled with undisguised heartache and anger.
"That beast, Kujo Hiroharu, sacrificed two or three hundred thousand ordinary civilians just to resurrect Qin Ze Duoyilang and Kujo Masakage!"
"What rank are Lin Zhu and ? We're both SS-rank! And we've recovered to our peak condition!"
"The number of lives that would need to be sacrificed to revive the two [N O V E L I G H T] of us is definitely no less than that of the Sakura Kingdom!"
Zhao Qingcang's chest heaved violently as he pointed at Chen Huaishuo's nose, his finger trembling: "Tell ! How many innocent people of Great Xia did you sacrifice? Ten thousand? Two hundred thousand? Or more?!"
"What you're doing is no different from that ruthless Kujo Hiroharu!"
"How can I, Zhao Qingcang, face the ancestors of Great Xia? How can I call myself a soldier of Great Xia?!"
Each question struck the wasteland like a heavy hamr.
Even Lin Zhu realized the seriousness of the situation at this mont, her face turned pale, and she looked at Chen Huai Shuo in disbelief.
If their lives were bought with the blood of hundreds of thousands of compatriots, then they would rather continue to sleep in the ground!
Faced with the marshal's harsh rebuke, Chen Huaishuo not only did not get angry, but instead showed a wry smile.
This is their Great Xia's Marshal.
He would rather die than harm the people in the slightest.
"Marshal, please don't be angry, let explain..." Chen Huaishuo sighed helplessly.
However, before Chen Huaishuo could finish speaking, a calm and gentle voice sounded softly from the side.
"Marshal Zhao need not bla General Chen."
"The Great Xia Dynasty did not sacrifice a single innocent civilian."
Zhao Qingcang turned his head sharply, his hawk-like gaze instantly locking onto the person who spoke.
He was a young man with a slightly pale face but a calm expression.
He stood there quietly, but faced with the pressure of his SS-level aura, he did not show the slightest fear.
"It is I who truly resurrected you."
"you?"
Faced with this unfamiliar young man, Zhao Qingcang frowned, scrutinizing him with puzzled eyes.
However, in just two seconds, he quickly realized who the other person was.
"You are... the God of Transformation?"
Zhou Huai smiled and nodded, bowing slightly.
"Let formally introduce myself. I am Zhou Huai from Donghai City. Greetings, Marshal Zhao and Principal Lin Zhu!"
"I sacrificed my clone to revive you two, and there were no casualties. So, you were in the wrong place when you were angry."
Upon hearing Zhou Huai's personal admission, Zhao Qingcang was equally astonished by the power and mystery of Zhou Huai's clone.
Even this ancient artifact, which touches upon the laws of life, can be used to "exploit bugs" by creating clones? Just how abnormal is this kid's profession!
After a brief mont of shock, ecstasy overwheld the commander of the Great Xia Dynasty.
"Hahaha! Good! Good! Good!"
Zhao Qingcang laughed loudly, grabbed Zhou Huai's shoulder, and slapped him hard. The terrifying force made Zhou Huai grimace involuntarily.
"I knew I hadn't misjudged you! You're not only a prodigy, but also a lucky star for our Great Xia!"
Zhao Qingcang's eyes grew brighter and brighter as his gaze swept back and forth between Zhou Huai and the pendulum of life. A bold and crazy idea quickly took shape in his mind.
"Zhou Huai, if that's the case, could we compile a list of the deceased generals of the Great Xia Dynasty?"
"Just think about it, as long as you use your clones as sacrifices, you can resurrect them all...!"
As Zhao Qingcang spoke, he beca more and more excited and began to earnestly persuade them: "Look at our Great Xia, in recent years we have been surrounded by foreign enemies, and our talents have been severely depleted! So many brilliant ancestors have shed their last drop of blood to protect this land!"
"If we could resurrect those SS-rank, or even the legendary SSS-rank, powerhouses who died in battle! With that power, let alone the re Sakura Country, even the arrogant Free Federation would be no match for us!!"
Listening to Zhao Qingcang's impassioned "grand blueprint," Zhou Huai remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was criticizing it.
How co Marshal Zhao looks younger and his skin has gotten thicker?
Reviving yourself is one thing, but why are you taking advantage of the situation and making demands directly?
They really think my god-level clone system is so kind of wholesale market for cabbages.
Although the system can revive the clone after 24 hours, the clone will actually die each ti it is drained of its life essence and turned into ashes!
Even the donkeys in the production team shouldn't be treated like this!
However, despite his inner complaints, Zhou Huai suppressed his smile.
He looked at Zhao Qingcang, whose face was full of fervor, and gently shook his head.
"Marshal, it's not that I don't want more of the powerful ancestors of Great Xia to be resurrected." Zhou Huai's gaze swept over the crowd and landed on the life pendulum that still exuded an ancient aura, his voice lowering.
"I had a bad feeling when I was using the pendulum of life just now."
"An ominous premonition?" Zhao Qingcang's smile froze, and he frowned.
Lin Zhu, who was standing nearby, also ca over, a look of doubt on her beautiful face: "Zhou Huai, what did you discover?"
"I have a feeling that the role of the pendulum of life is not just as simple as reviving people."
"It is more of a... collector of life energy."
Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned. Wei Liao gasped, "A collector? What do you an?"
Zhou Huai turned around, his gaze sweeping across everyone's faces, and solemnly analyzed, "Think about it carefully. Sacrifice and resurrection are never an equivalent exchange of energy. I felt this especially clearly when I was leading the ritual just now."
"The imnse life essence generated from sacrificing my three SS-level clones would be more than enough to reshape the bodies and souls of the Marshal and Principal Lin. Where did that extra, massive amount of life energy go?"
Zhou Huai's eyes were icy: "They disappeared. At the mont the resurrection ritual was completed, they were completely swallowed up by so rule deep within the pendulum of life, or rather, they were transported to so unknown space that we cannot perceive."
“This is not a simple artifact for resurrecting people. I have a feeling that if we continue to use it greedily and keep filling it with life energy, sothing extrely terrible may happen.”
