Chapter 1743 The Ultimate Despicable!

Smir didn't try anything funny.

Or to be more precise, he didn't play any tricks in 'leading Xu Xiao to find the Palu people'.

After a journey of a moderate length, Smir soon stopped in front of a wide open space.

He casually removed the restrictions that had been covering the area, revealing the scene inside the open space to everyone.

Those were small hills, each as tall as a person.

Composed of corpses, haphazardly piled together, there are three such structures.

The corpses on the upper level were still relatively intact, their faces, etched with fear, exuding an aura of death that seemed impossible to dispel in the sunlight.

But the bodies on the lower levels were in a terrible state, twisted and deformed under the pressure of gravity.

The lowest level has completely lost its basic human form, mixed with the soil, like the black, rotten mud in a swamp.

Roughly estimated, each mountain of corpses contains about forty bodies.

The three small hills together house a total of one hundred and twenty Palu people.

"You bastard!!"

With red eyes, Ma Han grabbed Smir by the back of the neck:

"What did you do to them!?"

Smir, who was being grabbed, instinctively shrank back, looking quite timid.

But soon, he became fearless again.

He even laughed out loud:

"As you can see, they're all dead, hehe..."

"Of course, I didn't kill them. I just starved them and didn't give them anything to eat."

"Who knew they wouldn't last long before they all starved to death."

"You fucking bastard!!" Ma Han couldn't take it anymore and punched Smir in the face.

Although the latter's face was covered in bruises, his smile remained unchanged.

Instead, he became even more arrogant, saying:

"You wouldn't dare hit me!"

"You're really going too far! If you kill me, your Lord Xu Xiao will be buried with me! Hahaha..."

"You!" Ma Han's face turned pale with anger, and he raised his fist, wanting to hit him again.

Fortunately, the Palu pigman intervened in time, preventing the situation from escalating further due to impulsiveness.

"Little Ma, don't fall for it!" Oink's voice trembled, clearly terrified by the mountain of corpses of his compatriots before him.

"Lord Xu Xiao signed a vow contract with this guy, don't forget!"

Ma Han stared intently at Smir's smug face, his chest heaving violently.

But in the end, they could only take a step back and return to Xu Xiao's side with the Palu Pigman.

Oink is right.

The previously signed oath contract stipulated that Xu Xiao must protect Smir's life.

If he were blinded by rage at this moment and killed Smir in a fit of anger,

The squad leader's life would be in danger!

But how could I possibly swallow the anger that was surging in my chest?

Those Palu people, piled up like mountains of corpses, were once vibrant lives, and they all respectfully called him "Little Ma"!

For a moment, Ma Han felt incredibly frustrated.

Even breathing became difficult.

But just then, a warm hand landed on his shoulder.

A gentle spiritual force emanated from him, quickly calming his restless mind.

"It's alright, we have resurrection items that can bring them back to life."

Xu Xiao spoke softly, like a ray of light suddenly appearing in the darkness, dispelling the gloom in their hearts.

But Smir's subsequent merciless words quickly extinguished that light.

"Ordinary resurrection items are not very useful."

"If I remember correctly, most resurrection items only work immediately, right?"

"These corpses have been piled up here for quite some time now. I guess they can't be resurrected with resurrection items anymore, right?"

"No, it should be fine!" Oink said in a trembling voice, took out a bottle of potion and headed toward the nearest mountain of corpses.

Ma Han stared intently at Smir, as if trying to discern from every subtle movement the other was about to do something wicked.

But even after Oink poured the potion on the corpse, he never witnessed Smir's outrageous actions.

The Euglin fox watched the whole thing from the sidelines, looking like a complete spectator.

The potion intended for resurrection did not work.

Just as Smirre said at the beginning,

A corpse that has developed lividity or even shown signs of decay cannot be resurrected using ordinary resurrection items.

"It's no use...it's really no use..."

"They're all dead...there's no way to save them..."

Oink fell to his knees with a thud, his eyes wide open, his pupils dilated and out of focus.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I warned you long ago, you stupid pig-headed idiot, wasting a bottle of resurrection potion for nothing..."

Smir shook his head and sighed, still looking like he was asking for a beating.

"How dare you make sarcastic remarks here?!" Ma Han's anger flared up again.

Unable to physically confront Smir, they decided to vent their emotions by raising their shouts:

"If you hadn't starved these Palu people to death, would we be stuck here worrying about resurrection? You're the culprit!"

"Alright, alright, I'm the culprit, so go ahead and kill me." Smir completely lost his nerve, like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water, and put his neck in front of Ma Han.

"Come on! Just make a cut here, and all the problems will be solved, right?"

“You can avenge the deaths of these lowly slaves; the evil Smirchain has finally paid the price with his life.”

"Oh? Why aren't you making a move? Staring at me with your eyes alone might not kill me! Hahaha..."

Ma Han was furious.

But the thought that this disgusting Oglin fox was bound to Xu Xiao's life made him suppress his urge to kill it.

mean,

That's absolutely despicable!

What is Smirre trying to achieve by doing this?

Was it merely to provoke Ma Han as much as possible, forcing him to kill him?

That's far too naive.

While it's true that it's easy to be fooled when emotions run high at the beginning.

But now that we know the situation, only a fool would continue to jump into this obvious trap.

What exactly is Smir's purpose?

With a sense of doubt in his mind, Ma Han subconsciously looked at Xu Xiao.

The woman's body was now glowing with a white light, and numerous white thorns were emerging from her body, converging towards the small hill of corpses.

This is……

Should we invoke the power of "tolerance"?

"After my divine status was perfected, my authority and power were further enhanced, allowing me to restore the target state regardless of time."

"Perhaps, we can revive these Palu people."

Xu Xiao explained simply.

Using authority and power?

Yes indeed,

You can use your authority to resurrect the starving Palu people!

Ma Han's eyes lit up, and he felt a surge of pent-up anger.

But when he turned his head and looked at Smir again, he couldn't see a trace of disappointment on the face of the Oglin fox.

All that meets the eye is the smugness and self-satisfaction of those who have succeeded in their schemes!
