Star Iron, conquer the world from Omphalos

That is indeed a big profit.

People's hearts are evil.

As for whether it was the Golden Race or the Senate that was in charge of everything, Ash was too lazy to care. After all, the enemy was about to fight at his doorstep, and there was only one thing to do at this moment.

"Gather the men first," he said to Julius.

Wan Di took some people to Xuanfeng City and has not returned yet. Now the main force is a little less, but Yaxiu is not worried. He is not good at attacking the city, but fighting a defensive battle is too easy for him.

He was worried that there were too many sand soldiers in the ruins recently and they were difficult to control.

The sun disc could slow the melting of the sand soldiers, so he had spent the last three days molding them whenever he had time, creating hundreds of them. However, because there were so many sand soldiers, he couldn't control them all at once, so he had to send some outside the ruins to melt on their own, or else he had to smash them and mold them anew, honing this ability, commonly known as brushing up his skill proficiency.

These sand soldiers are not capable of a large expedition, but it is easy to pull them out of the village to fight.

While Julius was gathering the soldiers, Ash checked the situation in the village. The news of the Ohma attack had spread, causing quite a commotion.

There is concern, but more people are angry.

Ohma inexplicably massacred the tribe, and they didn't settle the score. Instead, the enemy took the initiative to send troops to attack again. You can't just take advantage of the weak persimmon like this. Isn't this just bullying the honest people?

The Tilkas tribe is weak, but they are ambitious. In just a short while, Ash has seen no less than thirty villagers standing at the entrance of the village with shovels in their hands, eager to try.

They just waited for Ash's order, then rushed forward with shovels and hoes, and killed all those despicable Ohma people for Lord Ash and for the noble Gioria!

In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, he quickly asked Old Otto to keep an eye on these guys.

We must fight, but we cannot let the villagers go. There are sand soldiers in front and guards behind, so there is no need.

"Lord Ash, Ohma's guards are well-equipped and have far more combat experience than us. You must be careful." Old Ultra said worriedly.

Even if we include Xuan Feng's lone army, there are too few combatants on their side.

The Holy City Guards of Ohma have been fighting against the Xuanfeng Army and the Black Tide for many years. Their combat capabilities are far beyond their reach. The gap between a big city and a small village is obvious at a glance.

It was only after the joining of Xuan Feng Gu Jun that the balance of power began to tilt, but Wan Di was not there, and Xuan Feng Gu Jun lacked a backbone, so it was hard to say how much strength it could exert.

"Don't worry, Ultra. As long as the Golden Ones don't launch a massive attack, we have a chance of winning." Ash thought for a moment and said, "Gather the villagers and hide in the ruins first. Come out after the battle is over."

He was worried that the Ohma people had no moral principles and that it would be troublesome if they attacked the village.

After all, Tilkas is not a place like Ohma that is surrounded by walls. If an army rushes in and the guards have all gone to the front line, the harm it will cause will be unimaginable.

Old Otto took the order and called on the elders of the tribe to start working and move the villagers to the ruins.

After waiting for half an hour, Ohma's army had arrived at a hillside outside the village.

They didn't attack rashly, seemingly observing something. Julius also gathered his men. The entire Tiercus currently had only eighty guards, with a small number injured and unable to join the battle. However, the Xuanfeng army had over a hundred men. It was reasonable to say that the Xuanfeng men were brave and skilled in fighting. Their total number was small, but they had many soldiers. While not everyone was a soldier, at least half of them were capable of fighting. It could be said that everyone except the elderly and children could charge.

However, there were less than two hundred people in total. Facing the aggressive Ohma, Ash could see that although the soldiers were not afraid of fighting, they were worried in their hearts.

If they were defeated, Tyrkas might disappear from Omphalus forever.

Just then, an uninvited guest came to the Tilkas tribe.

"Ash!"

Bai'er rushed out from the side of the village, quickly broke through the soldiers' defense, and came in front of Yaxu.

"Stop." Ash stopped those who tried to rush over and looked at Bai'e. "What are you doing here again? Are you going to kill your way in and out of Tilkas?"

Bai'e smiled bitterly and said, "I know you don't believe me, but I really don't mean any harm. I came here to tell you to leave here and don't try to fight Ohma's army. You have no chance of winning."

"Oh?"

Ash said with interest, "Since you don't want Tilkas and Ohma to become enemies, then why are the troops here?"

"Ohema, it's not me who has the final say."

"What about Aglaia? Isn't your Golden Leader a demigod with the power of a Titan? You previously claimed that attacking Tilkas wasn't her intention and that the Senate was the one who framed her. But what about now? Ohma sent troops, and she doesn't even have the power to do that?"

"Aglaya..."

Bai'e thought of what Aglaya had said to him.

Omphalus could have only one holy city.

Indeed, the internal strife in Ohema was already chaotic enough.

A decision that cannot be unified cannot overcome the disaster, and the Golden People are not invincible. If they want the day predicted by the oracle to come, they must unite.

But when the people of Omphalos learned that Ohma was not the only place that could shelter them and bring them light, the differences would inevitably grow greater.

So even though Bai'e was unwilling, he still agreed with Aglaya's words.

But he didn't want Ash to fight against Xuanfeng alone with Tilkas, so leaving was the best option. Leaving, giving up the power of Gioria, and giving up the "light".

"You're not good at lying," Ash said calmly. "Let me guess, Aglaia, the Golden One, she also condoned the Senate's actions, right? Marcus's problem can't be solved; he's dead and there's no evidence. But the attack on Tiercus was the Senate's decision. This is her chance to turn the tables, right?"

Bai'e: "..."

"For Aglaia, the destruction of Tilkas would be even better. That way, things like the Xuanfeng Lone Army would never happen again. What a good plan. Go away, Bai'e. For the sake of your kindness, this is your final warning. The next time we meet, we will be enemies."

From the expression on Bai'er's face, Ash could tell that the conspiracy theory he had imagined before was indeed true. This was not difficult to guess. From a leader's point of view, putting the overall situation first is always the philosophy of their decision-making.

Ash had no objection to this, but he didn't want to become a victim of the overall situation. Since they couldn't reach an agreement, it would be more direct to use force.

Bai E said unwillingly, "Are you really not going to leave here?"

"This is the homeland of the Tilkas, why would you leave?"

"Even if I die here?"

Ash didn't answer, but turned to look at the surrounding Tilkas warriors.

"You guys answer his questions."

"Get out, Ohma people!" Julius said in a deep voice. "Even if the Tilkas people die in battle, we will never retreat and abandon our homeland!"

"Get out!"

"Get out!"

Call ~

Bai'e nodded. "I understand... Ash, I really don't want to see you on the battlefield, but perhaps that's fate. Goodbye. If you change your mind, you can always contact me. Finally, let me tell you, Aglaya is not a bad person. She just carries too much on her shoulders."

Ash said nothing and watched the other person leave.

Who doesn’t carry too much?

But why should they pay for each other's plans?

After all, the most innocent person is Tilkas, so they are on the side, right?

If you become a leader, don't establish yourself. A pure opponent may not be unrespectable. Ash shook his head. It's a pity that my Star Train is not here, otherwise I would have created it directly. Titans and Golden People, our Captain Pam even dared to create order!

Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta.

Not long after Bai'e left, a soldier in front hurried back.

"Lord Ash, Ohma's army is coming!"

"Are you here?" Ash took a step forward, and the surging quicksand beneath his feet dragged him into the air. He raised his scepter and shouted, "The battle bell has sounded, soldiers, forward!"

...

Chapter 3, k! ┬—┬ノ('-'ノ) bowl, knock knock knock!

Omphalos's Journey: Chapter 15 Kill Them All!

The earth was shrouded in darkness, and the light from the sun's disk was already very weak here, but one could still vaguely see the army charging from a distance.

The guards of the holy city have sophisticated armor and sharp weapons, and have far more combat experience than the Tilkas people. Their numbers are even more than twice as many as here.

In a head-on confrontation, Tilkas has no chance of winning, even with the help of Xuanfeng's lone army.

But that's normal.

At this time, Ohma's army was right in front of them, less than two hundred meters away from Tilkas.

A tall, armored figure stepped forward and shouted, "I am Celt, Captain of the Holy City Guard. Cowardly Tilcathians, I command you to lay down your weapons. Kephale's mercy has promised you a chance to live. If you will return with us to face trial, the armored guards of the Holy City will never slaughter innocent people!"

"Shut up, you despicable Ohma people!" Julius roared. "You attacked and killed the Tilkas tribe first, and now you want some inexplicable trial. The Tilkas people are not cowards, and we will never compromise with you!"

"I've given you a chance. Since you still refuse to repent, don't regret it. Confess your sins before Senatos of the Styx. Guided by the oracle, the Holy City embarks on the path of salvation. The sins you've committed for your own selfish gain will be cleansed with our swords!"

Celt drew his sword and shouted, "Warriors of Ohema, charge!"

Da da da!

The orderly sound of footsteps and the clanging of armor and weapons transformed into an invisible murderous aura that made people tremble with fear.

The next moment, Ohema's army began to charge.

Very strong.

The momentum can be seen from the appearance of the troops. The Tilkas people cannot compare with them in this respect. Only the Xuanfeng army can compete with them.

But the number of Xuanfeng's isolated troops was too small to form a charging formation. Once they were attacked by Ohma's army, they would be defeated in no time.

"No wonder it became the holy city of Omphalos."

While thinking, Ash waved the scepter.

wow~

A sudden gust of sand blew up and blew towards the Ohema people, covering all the Ohema people like a small sandstorm.

Although the fine sand and dust are not fatal and may not even cause much damage, on a critical battlefield, every second of mistake creates an opportunity for the enemy.

While the front group of Ohma soldiers were busy shielding themselves from the wind and sand and wiping their eyes, Tilkas had already rushed over.

Hand up, knife down.

"Die, Ohema!"

clang! ~

The sound of the blade hitting the armor was crisp and loud, and the elongated edge of the blade dragged out fiery red starlight, which was particularly conspicuous in the hazy night.

Although the wind and sand had an impact on the Ohma people, the gap in equipment between the two sides was too big. Ash discovered that in this wave of attack, not many people in the Ohma team died.

The reason is simple. The armor on the Ohma soldiers provided them with great help. The charge and slash were completed instantly. Although many Tilkas soldiers aimed at the neck or head, the Ohma soldiers also wore helmets.

On the other hand, on Tilkas's side, even the lone Xuanfeng army was wearing light armor and focusing on offense instead of defense.

On one side is heavy armor, and on the other side is light armor or even bare armor. The effect of the charge is clear at a glance.

The equipment gap was not so easy to make up, and soon the Ohma army began to fight back.

"Go to hell!"

Hiss~

Blood splattered.

Equipment gap!

The gap in combat skills!

One has to admit that the fighting capabilities of these Holy City guards are really strong, and they have enough reason to be proud.

"Cowardly Tilkas and despicable Hanging Blade, accept the punishment of the glory of Kephale!" Celt raised his sword and roared.

"md!"

Julius rushed towards him, and the clash of weapons burst out with starlight.

Ding Ding Ding Ding!

Julius underestimated Celtic's strength. Being able to become the captain of the Holy City Guard, his fighting ability is even stronger than Marcus.

boom!

Julius was knocked away.

"Captain of the Tilkas Army, is this all you have?" Celt said with disdain. "Look at this battlefield! Everything stems from your arrogance. You dare to go against the Holy City? You're courting death!"

Fighting and chaos spread across the land.

Although Ohma's army has not yet won, the situation is gradually turning in their favor. Facing the Tilkas and those isolated troops, the Celts are not worried at all. This is a battle without suspense.

He had carefully observed before the battle that Wan Di was not in the Tilkas tribe, and he took this opportunity to launch the attack.

"Golden Descendant! Golden Descendant of Tilcasse!" Celt ignored the enraged Julius. He looked in the direction of Tilcasse's troops and shouted, "Are you still not coming out? You killed Marcus and rejected the grace of the Holy City. Now that the Holy City's army has arrived, you're just hiding behind them?"
