Star Iron, conquer the world from Omphalos

Seeing that the situation was not good, Tao Ran immediately mobilized his strength to escape. Although it would be easy to get lost in the galaxy without the battleship, it was better than being killed by Ash.

"Your name is...Taoran, right? The Dragon Master of the Chiming Clan."

Ash's voice was like the voice of a god resounding in time and space. As the voice fell, the golden sea of sand swept away and turned into a huge slap.

Snapped!

Tao Ran was blown away and hit a huge sand wall.

Immediately afterwards, the other members of the Chiming tribe were also fanned against the wall. Then, as Ash's thoughts fell, the sand wall quickly collapsed, trapping everyone inside.

Ash flew over and came in front of Tao Ran.

"With your limited strength, who gave you the courage to come to Shurima to steal things?"

"You...Ash, how could you..." Tao Ran looked horrified.

"Why are they here?" Ash shook his head. "It seems the Chiming Clan is not only infertile, but also brainless. They were fooled by an outsider and thought their plan was perfect? Idiots, they didn't even realize they were being sold."

"How is it possible! How could Schneider lie to us? He shouldn't lie to us. There's no benefit in this!"

"Benefits? Of course there are. The Chiming tribe attacked Shurima, and I killed you. No matter what the process was, the result was this. By then, the Xianzhou Alliance will definitely regard me as a big enemy... Am I right? Lord Schneider." Ash turned his head and looked into the distant space, at the figure standing on the damaged warship.

"Ash, after fighting for so long, we finally meet." Schneider smiled slightly. "I know you've been looking for me. In that case, how could I let you down? But your presence here proves that Diamond is really going to great lengths to eliminate this threat from me."

"Schneider, you actually deceived me and deceived the Chiming tribe!!!" Tao Ran said angrily.

"Cheating? No, no, no, I never cheated you. I only helped you do what you wanted." Schneider shook his head. "Hasn't the Chiming tribe always been dissatisfied with the rule of the Immortal Boat? Relying solely on the art of scaling will eventually lead to destruction. The power of Shurima may indeed allow you to continue your race. This does not count as cheating."

"It's just that you don't have enough power to win the bargaining chips in this contest. Ultimately, it's your own fault. If you can convince the Xianzhou Alliance, even if it means unifying the Chiming Clan, I wouldn't have to worry so much."

"If you don't have enough chips but still force yourself to go to the gambling table, this is what you get."

Schneider said lightly.

From the very beginning, this has been a game of exploitation and being exploited.

If the Chiming tribe can come up with enough chips, then his plan will change accordingly.

The entire galaxy is a gambling table. Even though there are a few shrewd gamblers, for most people, they can only pile up chips as much as possible to last longer at the table.

And the gambler who has chips and skills can win everything.

"You seem to have a lot of leverage?" Ash scoffed. "You've become a homeless dog yourself, and you're still talking about others."

"Heh~ It seems you're very confident in your own strength. Without the Zerg Swarm, the Black Tower, and Ruan Mei's help, do you think you can fight the company alone? The Order Envoy is indeed very powerful, but the company has eliminated more than one Order Envoy throughout the Amber Era."

"Elder Taoran, I am a merciful person. I will do my best to help you destroy Shurima in this battle."

As soon as he finished speaking, a wave of leaping power came from the depths of the starry sky. The next second, huge interstellar battleships suddenly appeared and slowly sailed behind Schneider.

They are all Wanderers, equipped with the company's most advanced firepower. When the warships' guns are all fired, the oppressive force created comes head-on!

Schneider spread his hands like a victorious orator, a maniacal grin on his face. "Ash! I truly admire you. You use blood and conquest to expand your territory and gain more bargaining chips. I like to call this approach 'efficiency.' Unfortunately, the company's directors often don't agree with my philosophy. They want steady progress, but they also want to gain more. That's why I'm the most useful knife."

"So do you think the company will easily let go of a knife like me? Perhaps one day it will come, but at least not now. You... are not qualified yet!"

After saying that, he looked at Ash with anticipation, wanting to see the expression he expected on the latter's face.

However, Ash remained silent.

"What, you're speechless?"

"What's there to talk to an idiot like you about?" Ash said calmly, "I'm waiting for help. What about you? What are you waiting for?"

"helper?"

Schneider frowned. Who else could help him? Black Tower?

"Heh~ It's too late to call for help now!"

Schneider waved.

Suddenly all the ship's guns fired at the same time, some of which were aimed at Ash, while the rest were aimed at the planet Zarnak.

When the artillery fire that was powerful enough to destroy the planet bombarded, all the surrounding matter was submerged, and energy poured in from space. Ash raised his hand and released the power of the life sand to form a shield on the surface of Zarnak, blocking the ship's artillery attack.

At the same time, he pulled the trapped Tao Ran over, saving him from death in the aftermath of the ship's gunfire.

After locking Tao with the sand of life, Ash stretched out his hand and the surging golden sand sea turned into a huge palm that surrounded the fleet, like a golden lotus gathering from below.

chi chi~~

This force formed a brief confrontation with the surface protection of the combined fleet, and after a moment of stalemate, the defensive force field collapsed.

But at the moment of shattering, Schneider rushed out in the smoke of the explosion, and a conical golden hammer appeared in his hand, turning into a flaming meteor and crashing towards him.

Boom! The golden hammer crashed into Ash's condensed sand wall, sending a massive cloud of golden sand splattering outward, covering the entire starry sky like a sea of sand. Then, golden sand giants emerged from the sea of sand and attacked the fleet.

Boom!

Schneider caught the flying hammer and smashed it down, colliding with the carrying staff. After a brief collision, Schneider immediately distanced himself, and the golden hammer split into several figures in the air and shot out from different directions.

Ash swung his scepter, and the resulting force smashed all the golden hammers into pieces.

Quicksand shifts.

The deserted figure regrouped behind Schneider and then suddenly lunged out.

when!

The blade light pierced through space and collided with a golden wall, emitting a dazzling starlight. The penetrating force sent Schneider flying, plunging him into the sea of sand.

"You are so powerful, Messenger... It's a pity that Krippo is so stingy in giving this power to me, even though I am His most devout believer." Schneider's expression was gloomy, but his eyes were searching around while he spoke.

"From the looks of it, are you also waiting for help?"

Schneider's strength can be said to be infinitely close to that of a Commander, but he still has not reached the level of a Commander.

Even if the combined fleet was there, those things could only threaten Zarnak at most, and it was impossible to kill Ash.

Therefore, Ash knew that there must be someone lurking, and it was most likely at the level of a commander.

Schneider remained silent, but he was actually feeling a little nervous.

This is not what was planned.

"Tarafan, where are you?"

Sizzling...

Sizzling...

The only response he got was the constant noise in his ears.

Taravan Keene, one of the company directors persuaded by him, became the envoy of the protection.

For the company, profits always come first. They suspended Schneider primarily because of the threat posed by Ash. So, if there were a chance to eliminate this threat, with Schneider's abilities and resources at hand, reinstating him would be a simple matter of a high-level meeting.

But putting aside Ash's own strength, with the Zerg and two geniuses in charge, it would be too difficult to kill him.

This time, Schneider secretly instigated the Chiming Clan to create a conflict between the Xianzhou Alliance and the Shurima Empire, and even used the fact that Diamond was keeping a close eye on him to lure Ash to Zarnak.

He bet that Ash guessed that they couldn't really attack Yarilo head-on, after all, it was protected by the Black Tower. The latter was not only a genius but also a true Intellectual Commander, so it was only possible for them to attack Zarnak.

If he made a wrong bet, it didn't matter. He would help the people of the Chiming tribe transport the sun disk to the fairy boat. At that time, the conflict would be intensified. Anyway, this would be a direct attack on Yalilo's fleet, and there was a high probability that something had already happened.

If the bet is right, Taravan Keen, the commander of the Guardian, will appear with the company's power to deal with Ash together.

As long as they can control Ash, they will be able to master the secret of that power, and then he, Oswaldo Schneider, will become a hero of the company!

This is a great gamble.

If you succeed, you win everything.

But if he fails, his life will be in danger!

Things have come to this point, and any mistake in the details could result in the loss of life, so Schneider is naturally not in a good mood.

Taravan Keen, why hasn't he shown up yet? Why hasn't the company's support arrived yet?

This doubt continued until the energy wave exploded from the end of the starry sky and hit him. It was like a surging wave that shattered all the broken stars along the way. This terrifying momentum made Schneider stunned.

This is definitely a battle at the level of an envoy!

One is the familiar protective force, Taravan Keen, who is he fighting?

Soon, the destructive force mixed with the protection hit him. Schneider was stunned where he was. For a moment, even a smart man like him couldn't connect his thoughts.

destroy???

Boom! ——

The surging energy impact scattered the fleet and set off huge waves in the golden sand sea. Tao Ran, who was caught in it, struggled hard and finally broke free with all his strength.

He watched all this with a look of horror. The Dragon Master, who usually was high and mighty in the Chiming Clan, now felt like a "pawn" that could be crushed at any time.

It is too difficult to encounter battles at the level of an envoy.

And of those encountered, most died in the aftermath of the battle.

Tao Ran subconsciously prepared to take advantage of the chaos to escape, but just after flying a distance, he suddenly thought of something. He looked at Ash and Schneider, whose attention was completely focused on the battle of the Order, and then looked at the planet in the distance that was as calm as ever under the huge waves - Zarnak. Was the sun disk on it?

"Elder!"

"Elder!"

At this time, some surviving members of the Vajra tribe gathered together.

"Elder, the plan has failed, let's run away!"

They were already stunned by the impact of that force.

"No, the plan hasn't failed!" Tao Ran immediately ordered, "Go to Zarnak and seize the Sun Disc. Once we succeed, evacuate immediately!"

Everyone was shocked.

"Still going?"

"Why not go? Are we just going to run back in disgrace? Have you ever thought about what punishment we will face if our plan fails, even if we can return alive? I'm afraid we won't even have the chance to shed our scales!"

At this point, Tao Ran can no longer care about anything else.

As long as we can bring the sun disk back, any casualties will be worth it!

After all, it is very likely that the secret of immortal power is hidden in it. Even if it is not as powerful as the power used by Ash, it should at least be able to continue the survival of the Chi Ming clan. At that time, he will become a hero of the Chi Ming clan.

"go with!"

"Let's go!"

"There's no turning back anyway!"

Encouraged by Tao Ran, everyone reached a consensus and rushed towards Zarnak.

Regarding this scene, Ash, who was far away, just glanced at it and didn't pay any attention to it.

He stretched out his hand and released a golden sky curtain to block the impact from the edge of the galaxy, and then grabbed Schneider who was still in shock.

The giant hand transformed from the golden sand was like a pair of pliers, and feeling the threat to his life, Schneider suddenly woke up and threw away a shield on his body.

The power released by the shield formed a protective shield to protect Schneider, but the surrounding space had been blocked by Ash, and he could not escape at all.

When a Lingshi fights someone below the Lingshi level, even if the weakest Lingshi fights the strongest Fate Walker, the latter can only exchange a few moves with the Lingshi at most, and it is almost impossible for the latter to win.

Besides, Ash is not the weakest commander.

Schneider was horrified and said, "Ash, you're actually working with the Legion of Destruction?! You'll become the enemy of the entire galaxy!"

Ash scoffed, "What bullshit are you talking about? When did I ever cooperate with Destruction? Do you have any evidence?"

Schneider gritted his teeth: "They can't possibly appear here. The Order of Destruction, the Griffith Galaxy should be a phantom. How could that guy suddenly attack the company!"

"Oh, then? So? Schneider, is this your trump card? In your eyes, everyone is a pawn. You're used to being superior. Whether it's you, your company, or the Xianzhou Alliance, you're all used to putting yourselves in the dominant position, thinking that as long as you discuss everything, you can decide everything."

"One day, I will knock those guys off their thrones and let them experience the feeling of being at the mercy of others... Of course, you won't see that day."

The golden power pierced through the shield, and the continued stalemate finally exhausted all the power of the shield. Schneider roared and rushed out of the blockade of Ash's power, but in the next second, a gun blade that pierced out from the sand sea pierced his thigh.

"Uh ah ah!"

The severe pain made Schneider scream miserably.

Ash stretched out his hand and several sand spears shot out, piercing Schneider's limbs and locking him in the air.

"Don't you want my power? Take it then." As the power surged into Schneider's body, golden flames began to burn fiercely within him. Without Ash's deliberate control, this power was even more terrifying than the power of Ascension. Schneider was clearly not chosen for the Ascension Ritual. His own strength now became the culprit for his torment. He could not escape, nor could he die for the time being, and could only continue to burn.

Ash ignored him and turned to deal with the warship.
