Zongman: Starting from the Chaos Orb

The confrontation between the women began at this moment, stabbing each other in the heart.

As a battle maniac, Esdeath simply chose to ignore the first half of Kaguya's sentence.

He even stood up straight, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes as he looked at Kaguya.

"What? You don't admit your failure?"

"hehe..."

Kaguya sneered and looked at Esdeath's waist, where her general's narrow sword was hung.

Esdeath followed Kaguya's gaze and looked at her own weapon, then raised her head again, her brows furrowed slightly. She was a little confused about Kaguya's intentions.

"Just a fatal injury..."

Kaguya's voice was not loud, and her tone seemed a little low.

At the same time, Kaguya's telekinesis instantly enveloped Esdeath, making her unable to move at all.

He slowly stretched out his hand, and his dark and somewhat sharp nails gently hooked on Esdeath's chin.

"Esdeath, don't get it wrong, he was protecting you!"

Kaguya forced her to look at him.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his pure and flawless eyes revealed three parts of coldness, four parts of sarcasm, and five parts of indifference.

These are the skills Kaguya learned from palace fighting dramas.

"Don't think you can kill me by piercing my heart. That's just the limit of human nature. If it weren't for your face and this lovable body, you would have died long ago."

After saying that, Kaguya casually withdrew her hand. Her movements were very elegant, but she deliberately scratched a shallow red mark on the other person's chin.

At the same time, the telekinesis dissipated in an instant, and Esdeath regained control of her body.

Esdeath should have been even angrier, but in reality, her feelings at the moment were somewhat indescribable...

Even though her tone was bad, she complimented my face and my figure...

This guy... is weird...

She couldn't help but look at Kaguya with complicated eyes, and her right hand unconsciously touched her chin.

After thinking about it, she asked the question, but this time her attitude was much more serious than before.

"Then tell me, how did I die?"

Kaguya's gaze shifted from the book to Esdeath again.

He said coldly: "You can't even sense my energy fluctuations, it's useless to say it, wait until you return to the sacred tree to practice hard."

"The sacred tree..."

Esdeath keenly grasped the key point in Kaguya's words and couldn't help but recall the first half of Kaguya's sentence.

Somewhat curious, he asked again, "Does that man have many partners? Are they all as strong as you?"

"Well, any one of them can kill you."

"..."

On the other hand, Dongfang Zang gained a deeper understanding of the world as he collected more information.

The first is alchemy, whose fundamental principles are based on understanding and manipulating the nature of matter.

Alchemists believed that all matter was composed of basic elements, and through specific rituals, that is, the order of operations, formulas and energy input, they tried to change the combination of these elements to achieve the transformation of matter.

Dongfang Zang was very sure that the so-called imperial tools and ministerial tools were definitely the products of alchemy.

In the known plot, there are a total of twenty-eight Teigu, but this is by no means the upper limit of the number of Teigu in this world.

Rather than saying that the method of making imperial tools has been lost, it would be more accurate to say that it has been completely blocked.

This was almost the same political behavior by the Western Kingdom and the Empire, but the Empire did it more thoroughly, almost eliminating all inheritance of alchemy.

In this regard, the Western Kingdom took the opposite path, popularizing the knowledge of basic alchemy to the people.

It brought a lot of convenience to the people of the Western Kingdom.

For example, alchemy can be used to create highly effective medicines to treat difficult and complicated diseases, and ordinary materials can be transformed into higher-quality building materials for use in city construction and house repair.

In agriculture, alchemy could also be used to improve soil and increase crop yields.

Because of this, although the Western Kingdom’s territory is not large, the happiness of its civilians is very high, and the entire country is in a stable and prosperous state.

Moreover, the creation of an imperial weapon involves the consumption of a large amount of materials. This is a trial-and-error process in alchemy, where an imperial weapon is gradually perfected through constant mistakes.

The consumption and gains are not proportional, which is also the ultimate reason why the two major powers blocked the formula for making imperial weapons.

From this perspective, Dongfang Zang believes that the national policy of the Western Kingdom is extremely correct. They use alchemy to create some powerful weapons.

Although alchemical weapons may be slightly inferior to the imperial weapons in terms of individual power, they can be mass-produced and equipped to the army to create a group advantage.

This is also the main reason why the Western Kingdom can confront the old empire head-on.

Unless supreme imperial artifacts like the National Guardian Mecha God can be mass-produced, other than such large-scale destructive weapons, the role of all imperial artifacts in wars between countries is minimal.

Moreover, the Western Kingdom’s thinking is particularly clear.

Despite having the strength to rival the Millennium Empire, it did not rashly send troops to start a war, but quietly waited for the other side to collapse internally.

Presumably, even after the story of this world comes to an end, the empire will not have a second spring, but will face the pressure of the Western Kingdom's army.

Not to mention directly swallowing up this vast territory, it would be easy to take over half of it.

The ensuing alchemical civilization will quickly assimilate the already suffering civilians of the empire, and in a short period of time, raise their quality of life to a level that these poor people cannot even imagine.

After their lives become stable, which commoner would want to rebel out of boredom?

Of course, the popularization of alchemy will definitely lead to a decrease in people's dependence on the country, but as long as we do a good job in ideological work and guide people to do good, this will not be a problem at all.

There were certainly crimes committed in connection with alchemy, but they never rose to the level of rebellion.

It has to be said that in Dongfang Zang's eyes, the current Western Kingdom is undoubtedly on an extremely stable path of peace and prosperity.

As long as the empire's land is swallowed up, what will be left is the northern permafrost, the eastern island countries, and the southern islands.

There's nothing much to say about the frozen north, with its half-naked savages.

The Eastern island nation is an uncivilized place, and there are still internal conflicts among the few hundred people.

The southern islands had indeed begun sailing and trading, but their level of civilization was still very backward compared to the western kingdoms.

For the alchemical civilization, these forces can be summarized in one sentence.

"I'm not targeting anyone, I'm saying everyone here is garbage."

But it's a pity.

If Dongfang Zang had not come to this world, the Western Kingdom might have come to fruition.

But there is no if, he really came like this, so the ambitions of the Western Kingdom can be put aside.

The Alchemy Civilization is indeed quite capable, but when it comes to the Hongmeng World...

You are just a six-piece pancake. Not to mention nuclear bombs, two atomic bombs will make you behave.
