Star Iron, conquer the world from Omphalos

Judging from the data Ruan Mei gave him, male genomes are good at areas of combat, while female genomes are more inclined towards theoretical research.

Having said that, even without the test, Ash knew that they should all have a very high qualification for ascension, so both men and women would be terrifyingly strong.

"You are worthy of being our child."

Ash nodded in satisfaction.

Judging from the basic data alone, these children are already dozens of miles ahead of ordinary people. Their complete form will only be seen after they ascend.

"After completing basic education and ability tests, I will send it to you for the ascension ceremony." Ruan Mei said.

"Well, there's no rush for that... What about those genetic soldiers?" Ash asked again, "How fast are they being cultivated? How long will it take for them to join the battlefield?"

"They grow very quickly. If you just want to use them as soldiers, like the Atiya people, they won't last long. But I think these offspring cultivated through our gene seeds all have unique talents in their areas of expertise. It would be a pity to use them just as pawns on the battlefield."

After all, to become an ascended warrior one only needs to pass the ascension ceremony. Of course, it is fast, but if that is all, it would be a waste of their talent.

The warriors bred in batches all have certain specialties, not to mention the twenty genobodies, each of whom inherited the excellent talents of the combination of Ash and Ruan Mei's genes.

Ruan Mei is now training each of them according to their strengths, but she can only do this much with her energy. The mass production of genetic warriors in the future will definitely be the responsibility of the Shurima Empire.

And these twenty genomes will definitely become the pillars of the empire in the future.

Of course, Ash also knew this. An officer with military knowledge and strategic vision was far more valuable than him charging into the front lines.

But at this stage, there is simply not enough time for these ascended warriors to learn. They can only survive this wave of attacks and then provide special training for the members of their regiment based on the areas in which each gene body excels.

For example, some gene bodies excelled in military affairs, some in biological research, and some in mechanics, and their chapter members would inevitably possess outstanding talents in these areas. Ash could foresee that in the future, these ascended chapters cultivated through gene seeds would become famous throughout the galaxy.

Yaxiu asked Ruan Mei to speed up the training as much as possible, so as to accumulate the number of people in each regiment and form a legion that can fight against external enemies. Otherwise, all the burden will be placed on the first regiment, which will be difficult to bear.

However, before that, he still had to test the ascension rate of these genetic offspring. Logically, it shouldn't be too low, at least 70%, otherwise the cost of breeding would have to increase significantly.

Although he really wanted to meet the twenty children, he couldn't leave at the moment, so he could only let the children stay with Ruan Mei's mother for the time being.

Yaxiu asked Ruan Mei to send the recently trained Atiya soldiers to Yalilo, and then ascend these soldiers to replenish them in the First Regiment. This battle would not end so soon, and he was ready for a protracted war.

The Desert Emperor in Star Iron: Chapter 8|9 Ash: Damn, the Star God is here to steal my son!

A new batch of Atiya warriors were quickly added to the battle group, but the number was not large, only three hundred ascended warriors.

With the outbreak of war, it was not only the Xianzhou Alliance that faced pressure, but Shurima was also under great pressure - mainly because they were too poor!

The dozen or so planets that were conquered were all places with low levels of civilization and little economic activity.

Even if there are some resources, development takes time, and it is unknown when it can be monetized.

If it weren't for the additional funds received from Screwgum, the war in just one month would have emptied Shurima.

At this moment, Tingyun from Pinoconi brought a message - Odi Aifa from the Alfalfa family was willing to donate a sum of materials to Shurima in his personal name for the development and construction of the empire.

The total value of this material will exceed 10 trillion credit points. In addition, Emperor Ao also personally funded the empire for "routine maintenance" of ten battleships, fifty strike cruisers, eighty escort destroyers, and a certain amount of ammunition.

The condition for funding these supplies and warships is that the Clover Family reaches a strategic partnership with the Shurima Empire to jointly develop the Ophitis galaxy - that galaxy was originally owned by the Clover Family and contains a large number of rare minerals and other materials, but it was recently invaded by the Zerg, causing the family to suffer heavy losses.

After this news came out, many forces in the galaxy began to stir.

Everyone can see that the Clover Family wants to take the opportunity to establish a relationship with the Shurima Empire. Providing timely assistance is far more meaningful than adding icing on the cake. Once Shurima can rise under the joint suppression of the Xianzhou Alliance and the company, its future development will be limitless.

After all, Xianzhou and the company cannot fight Shurima to the end. They also have their own things to consider, and there are a lot of enemies lurking in the dark. Most wars in the galaxy are not aimed at ultimate destruction.

In the final analysis, only the small forces will be completely destroyed, and the big forces will attack the small forces, destroying or conquering them.

There are more open and covert struggles between major forces, and even if there are conflicts, they will be kept to a minimum.

What else can we do if we don't stop at the right time? We can't kill our opponent with one blow. If we fight too fiercely here, problems will arise elsewhere. This cosmic logic of maintaining a relatively stable order in chaos is what scholars call "equilibrium."

According to Tingyun's account, she had a conversation with Odi, whose idea was actually very simple, which was to let Shurima attack the company, and attack it hard!

This time, the company's people are preparing to make trouble in Pinocchio, and it is obvious that they want to interfere in the family business. This Galaxy Treasure Bowl brings too much profit to the family every year. How can the company not be jealous?

But the family has always rejected the company's "good intentions". This time, the director of the company's strategic investment department took action personally. The family was on guard all the time, but Odi always felt that things were not that simple. With a shrewd negotiating sense, he told him that something was going to happen to Pinocchio.

So this time, Odi is also equivalent to an investment. There have been conflicts between Shurima and the company. So, after the situation is stabilized, can it also serve as an important guarantee for cooperation with the family?

Odi is not interested in the power of the sun disk. He is a businessman. There are so many strange powers emerging in the Milky Way every day. How can he fight for them all?

Rather than fighting for power on his own, he believes more in the supremacy of allies. The more reliable allies he has, the stronger his own strength will naturally be.

Of course, this requires "reliability". If the Shurima Empire is not strong enough, they will not even bat an eyelid even if they are destroyed.

"Tingyun, well done!"

The support from the Alfalfa family is undoubtedly a timely relief.

Of course, Tingyun’s contribution is indispensable here.

"I haven't done anything. It's the hard work of everyone in the Empire that has convinced Emperor Ao that there are benefits to cooperating with us." Ting Yun smiled. "The Emperor may not know that Pinocchio has gathered forces from all over the galaxy. The number of people who want to inquire about the Empire's situation with me is almost as high as their dreams."

Although the war with the Xianzhou Alliance caused the empire to lose a lot, it also gained a lot.

For example, the loyalty of the imperial warriors and the popularity of Shurima. Most people still think that the rise of Shurima is like a nouveau riche who won the lottery, and its prosperity will not last long. However, as time goes by, this statement has been completely overturned.

So, Shurima is now a blue ocean in the eyes of many investors, with immense investment value.

But how many of them are truly cooperating? Tingyun can tell at a glance, so so far her trading partners in Pinocchio are limited to the Alfalfa family, and she has not even had formal contact with the other families.

"You're right. Pinocchio's situation isn't as stable as it appears. We need to proceed steadily and cautiously. For the time being, we shouldn't get involved with too many forces, especially those of the Oak Family."

"The Oak family...their head is the famous Mr. Sunday. The Emperor has great influence in Pinocchio. Is it true that he has no contact with the Oak family?"

"Well, no contact. That guy will soon do something big to overthrow Pinocchio... How about this, I'll assign some more people to you."

Yaxiu was still a little worried, so he planned to let Wan Di take a company of imperial guards with him. On the one hand, it was to prevent people with ulterior motives from attacking Tingyun, and on the other hand, it was to contribute to the cooperation with the Alfalfa family.

It is estimated that the things that the family has been hiding in Pinocchio will be dug out soon. By then, the Lord's Day will also come, and various forces will mix together to turn Pinocchio upside down. The family is really in need of help.

Shurima does not need to go against the Star Train, it just needs to keep an eye on the people in the company. With the cooperative relationship with the Alfalfa family, these people can be reasonably arranged after they go there.

It just so happened that Wan Di was also feeling very frustrated recently. He even applied to go to the regiment where Cocolia was and self-destruct with his opponent. Not to mention that he was really suitable for this tactic.

Unfortunately, Julius got there first. The commander of the Imperial Guard had already led his men there.

"I understand." Tingyun nodded slightly. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "Your Majesty, I have a humble request."

"You said."

"The Empire is at war with Luofu. I know I no longer have any connection with the Immortal Boat, but I'm worried about some of my friends at the Tianbo Division..."

"You want Yukong and the others to leave Luofu?"

Tingyun responded, "I have tried to contact Lord Yukong recently, but unfortunately, my contact fell on deaf ears. Luofu has disappeared and is now involved in the war with the Empire, and the Yaoqing Fox People have left the Immortal Boat. I am truly worried about them."

She has been following Yukong since she was a child and has a very good relationship with the latter. Now that the empire and the Xianzhou are at war, and the fox people have rebelled against the Xianzhou, the situation of Yukong and the others is definitely not going to be any better.

"Leave it to me," Ash said, "I'll find a way to get them out of Luofu."

Tingyun's mission in Pinocchio is crucial, and Yaxiu doesn't want her to be distracted at this time.

Yukong and others are also very capable, and it would be a good thing if they could come to Shurima.

"Thank you, Emperor."

...

Supplies from the Alfalfa family soon arrived in the empire.

Only one third of the strategic materials were provided, but the warships were delivered to Yarilo at once. After being received and upgraded by Bronya, they were immediately sent to the front line for distribution by Cocolia.

The arrival of these warships can be said to have given Cocolia a sigh of relief. After all, the empire's original fleet was too small. If the battle continued, their officers would have no choice but to ride on battleships to fight against the enemy's main battleships.

"Mom, are you okay?"

After the brief handover, Bronya couldn't help but ask.

She had been keeping an eye on news from the front lines, but she hadn't expected that in such a short time, her mother had already become a shining new star in the galaxy.

"Why do you ask?" Cocolia said, taking the time to arrange things for her subordinates. "Fighting on the front lines is neither good nor bad. Everything is for the Emperor. Shurima must not lose this war. Bronya, although you are in the rear, your responsibilities are equally heavy. You must keep up with the replenishment of Imperial soldiers and the allocation of supplies. You must also be wary of the Xianzhou Alliance's attack on Yalilo VI."

"I know, I have been doing these things all the time, but I am worried that you will be too tired."

"Of course not." Cocolia looked at her daughter sternly. "Bronya, don't have such thoughts. I won't be allowed to have such thoughts while fighting for the Empire. You should know that without the Emperor, Beloberg would have been destroyed long ago, and Yalilo VI would have become a planet covered in ice and snow. So I am fighting for the Empire, and even more so, for the kindness the Emperor has bestowed upon us."

Bronya's heart trembled slightly, and then she nodded seriously: "I understand, mother."

"Well, I know you, daughter. You have always been excellent, and you will be much better than me in the future... Well, it's time for me to go fight."

The sudden sound of the alarm interrupted the brief reunion between mother and daughter. Looking at her mother disappearing in front of her, Bronya felt a little emotional. She was still as resolute as ever... No, compared to when she was in Yalilo, Cocolia was now more like a steel soldier.

If the Emperor is the guiding light in the hearts of the people of the Shurima Empire, then Warmaster Kokolia is the bayonet that pierces the hearts of the enemy.

Favor... The Emperor's favor to Jarilo, they will also repay this favor with equal efforts and fight for the Shurima Empire.

...

With the support of the Alfalfa Family, the situation on the front battlefield of the Empire gradually stabilized. Under the heavy blows of the suicide boat tactics, the joint fleet of Zhu Ming and Yu Que gradually became overwhelmed.

Supplies were in short supply, casualties were heavy, and the rear was constantly harassed by various forces.

Just when the two combined fleets were about to collapse, the negotiations between Luo Fu and the company finally yielded results. A fleet consisting of thousands of warships entered the Atles galaxy and charged towards the front battlefield!

The company's joining immediately became the bargaining chip that tipped the scales. Seeing this large fleet coming towards them in a mighty force, even the ascended warriors of the First Regiment began to worry.

Just as Cocolia was busy deploying troops to fight, new news soon arrived - the large fleet from the company suddenly disappeared collectively.

No one knows what happened exactly, but someone found traces of Screw Gum's attack. This genius used a side that ordinary people could hardly understand, and destroyed the decisive force that was enough to turn the tide of the battle.

This time, both Xianzhou and the company were confused.

The Xianzhou Alliance still hoped to defeat Shurima together with the company, but what about the fleet? Such a large fleet?

Tarafan tried to contact the commander of the fleet, but the communication was blocked by an unknown force. Just when he was about to launch a general attack on the mechanical army, Screw Gum took the initiative to contact him and told him that the fleet was fine, but they might find it difficult to return to the Atles galaxy before the end of the war.

ScrewGum had no intention of really breaking up with the company. He was a peace-loving person who enjoyed research and didn't like making enemies.

Regarding this result, Tarafan was silent for a long time, and finally canceled the F2A attack order on his finger, and then reported the situation to the company.

He believed that Screw Gum was not lying, and it was obvious that the other party did not want to have a complete conflict with the company, but if they still insisted on attacking, the Screw Star Lord would probably use more terrifying means.

What to do then?

Did the screw star explode?

The company does have the ability to do so, but trouble will arise later.

After all, Screw Gumu is just a human being, barefoot. If he really wants to cause trouble for the company in the future, it will be bad news for the company.

Otherwise, why would they have taken the trouble to build a good relationship with ScrewGum?

Because of this relationship, ScrewGum had no intention of breaking up with the company. He was just helping Ash deal with the Xianzhou Alliance.

So, Yinhe is all about human relationships and events.

Soon, the company made a decision.

Anyway, they have sent support according to the agreement with Xianzhou, and Screwgum is on the side of Shurima, which is equivalent to Shurima blocking their attack and does not count as them violating the agreement.

On the contrary, they provided support. Although there was no fighting and no casualties, the Xianzhou Alliance still had to pay them for this military action because of the agreement.

Although there will definitely be some bargaining in the end, there will still be some profit, so the company is no longer in a hurry.

If they were not anxious, the Immortal Boat Fleet would be anxious.

Especially the two major fleets, Zhu Ming and Yu Que. No support has arrived from our side, but support has arrived from Shurima. How can we fight them?

Fortunately, news soon came from Luofu that Fanghu Longzun had brought his men to Luofu to allow all the Chiming people to accept ascension.

As long as we can solve Shurima's self-destruction tactics, the chances of winning this battle are still very high.

But Ash had been keeping an eye on this for a long time.

The Ascension Corps caused too much damage to the Xianzhou Alliance. If they want to win this war, they must either invest a larger-scale combat force at one time like the company did, or find a way to eliminate the threat of the Ascension Corps and defeat the Shurima fleet head-on.

The former is no longer possible, because by now, a group of evil spirits have come to the Xianzhou Alliance, including not only the people of abundance but also the forces of destruction.

So they can only start with the Ascended Regiment.

In fact, the combat effectiveness of the Yunqi Army is not weak, it can even be said to be very strong, otherwise how could the Yunqi Army have such a great reputation?

It can only be said that the ascended warriors are indeed terrifying, especially when they charge after forming a large scale. The powerful biological armor combined with the physical fitness of the ascended warriors, plus the incredible recovery ability, once made them the terror of the people in the fairy boat.

In a one-on-one situation, an ascended warrior would need at least a cloud rider of the Xiaowei level to resist.

But there are thousands or even endless ascended warriors, so how many brave guards can there be?

Therefore, they will most likely use the power of the sun disk in the end.
