Star Iron, conquer the world from Omphalos

The congress ended quickly.

Tilkas's side followed Ash's will, and soon they began to spread the name of "Golden Sun", punching Ohma, kicking Xuanfengcheng, and confronting Nicadori's arrows head-on. This is Lord Ash!

Anyway, you can brag no matter how awesome you are.

However, in Omphalos, which is shrouded in eternal night, the speed of information transmission is really worrying. If it were in the Internet age, such explosive news would directly reach the top of the hot list without even buying traffic.

The effect of boasting about the news can only be seen slowly. Ash asked Wan Di to list some forces that can be won over, and among these forces, priority will be given to those that are easy to recruit.

Wan Di took out a map with the locations of the two major cities, Xuanfeng City and Ohma, marked on it. Tilkas was about the same distance from them, and the three were in a three-way confrontation on the map.

Wan Di circled some areas around Xuanfeng City. These were places he had visited before with his lone Xuanfeng army, so he was relatively familiar with them. However, many places not marked on the map might not be without other people. After all, Omphalos was so large, it was impossible for everyone to die. With the arrival of Eternal Night, most people huddled together and would not easily move around.

"If we can bring all these forces together, the population should reach 6,000 to 7,000, and then we can explore other places. But we have few people and a small army now, so early development will definitely not be easy."

"I know this, but Tilkas now also has three Goldens, which is enough to be famous." Ash said with a smile.

"Three?" Wan Di glanced at him indifferently. "That Xia Die, do you really trust her?"

"I only trust people I trust. Whether she can become our companion depends on herself. Anyway, now that we say there are three, no one can doubt it, right?" If they had ten Golden Descendants, then one more would not be obvious, but now there are only two, and one more would mean half more.

Ash changed the subject: "Speaking of which, how are things going on your side? There should be people in Xuanfeng City who are willing to follow you, right?"

Xuanfeng City is so big, it is impossible that only Xuanfeng’s troops are willing to come out against the enemy.

Even more people are trapped in the city because they have no way to escape.

"This is a good opportunity to deal with the Mountain People." Wan Di said solemnly, "The people are innocent. They shouldn't pay for the madness of King Olipon and Nicardoli."

"If it succeeds, that would be great." Ash chuckled. "Speaking of which, the Golden Descendant's journey to pursue fire, Titanicadori of Strife, aren't you interested in his fire?"

All the enemies were stunned.

"Nicardoli's Fire, me?"

...

Ouch! I hit fifty!!!

Omphalos's Journey: Chapter 31: A Man of Insight

Titan Nicardoli of Dissension. In Ash's opinion, the Golden One is chasing the Spark, so the attributes of Dissension and Ten Thousand Enemies match very well. Although he has not played 3.0, if it is in the game, it will definitely be Ten Thousand Enemies who gets it.

Although the Star Train has not arrived yet, since Wan Di has become his friend, Ash doesn't mind helping Wan Di. If he can get the spark, Wan Di's strength will be raised to the demigod level in one fell swoop.

Speaking of which, how big is the gap between demigods and Titans?

With his current strength, he should be able to fight against a demigod.

As for Titan, it is definitely not enough, at least it is far behind Nicardoli.

But if after obtaining the power, he cannot even reach the strength of a Titan, then at best he can be a lower-level substitute of the twelve Titans. How can he save the world?

Ash always felt that something was wrong here. He had previously speculated that the cycle of Omphalos was shrouded in the Möbius strip. Perhaps the Golden Descendant was just a pledge, and the real power that could restart the world was lurking behind it.

But there's no harm in taking it anyway.

"I have no interest in the power of discord." Wan Di shook his head coolly, "But if Nicardoli truly falls, then as the Crown Prince of Xuanfeng, I will personally put him to death!"

"Well, it's good to have such fighting spirit."

Ash smiled faintly.

Just have an idea.

As for whether it works or not, we’ll tell when the time comes.

...

"Aglaya, why did you let Xiadie go to Tilkas? I heard that Yaxiu was trying to recruit her!"

Yunshi Tiangong.

Bai'e found Aglaya and asked her about the doubts in his mind these days.

He always felt that any decision made by Aglaya had a deeper meaning, and the latter's absolute rationality was the guarantee of leading the Golden Race on the right path.

So even though he knew that Xiadie went to Tilkas as an envoy, he had doubts in his heart, but he did not go to Aglaya to question her immediately.

but now.

Tilkas defeated the Xuanfeng Army, Ash, known as the Golden Sun, and even stopped Nicadori's arrows head-on!

Although the news of this battle has not spread in Ohma, they, the management, know about it. If the current Tilkas lists Ohma as an enemy, it will undoubtedly be terrible.

Under such circumstances, Xiadie went to Tilkas, and there was no news for so many days. Bai'e was very worried. Xiadie was either killed or surrendered. Both possibilities were very high.

"Don't excite Bai'e. Anger will make you lose your mind, and excessive worry will blind you." Aglaya said calmly, "I let Xiadie go, and I have my own plans. Don't worry, she's in Tilkas now, so she won't be in too much danger."

Bai'e frowned: "But if that's the case, won't Xiadie be instigated by Ash?"

Aglaya shook her head slightly. "Ash has never been our enemy. He possesses power beyond that of ordinary Goldens, and the light of the oracle shines upon him."

"You mean... Ash is also the Golden Descendant predicted by the oracle? But he doesn't admit it and has never even thought about saving the world."

"That's what the oracle says. Whether he's willing to admit it or not, the forces he leads have always been following the path guided by the oracle." Aglaya's eyes flickered slightly.

This... obviously is not the case.

Everything about Ash did not exist in the oracle, at least that was what she had figured out now.

As to whether there is a deeper meaning, she and other fate weavers are trying to decipher it from Kephal's oracle, but this process is destined to be long.

Before getting the truth, she must convey the best result to others. At least now, Tilkas will not regard Ohma as an enemy.

"So what should we do now?" Bai'e asked. "Aglaya, whether you want to admit it or not, the fact that Xiadie hasn't returned may mean that she's more inclined to side with Ash. Even if the oracle's light shines on Ash, it doesn't mean that Ash is willing to stand on our side."

"So what we need to do now is to avoid conflict with Ash as much as possible." Aglaya raised her head, her golden eyes fixed on the sky. "Xuanfeng has already regarded Tierkas as an enemy. I can sense that Nicadori's madness will not end. In the last war, Tierkas may have won, but they don't have the foundation of Ohma, and their remaining troops are few and far between. There's no way they can withstand the next attack from Xuanfeng City."

Bai'e nodded: "Allies, consider Tilkas an ally, and Xuanfeng City is our common enemy."

"That's right, so we need Xiadie to stay there. This is the only 'golden thread' between us and Ash."

Bai E was silent for a moment.

"You're always like this, Aglaya. I respect your decision, but please don't forget that Xiadie is our companion. Leaving her in that situation like Tilkas is too dangerous. You should at least ask for her opinion."

Aglaya suddenly smiled softly: "Next time, I will choose the right opportunity to go there in person."

"That's not what I meant... Never mind. Anyway, the situation isn't all that bad right now. Xuanfeng City is now our common enemy with Tilkas. With them around, the pressure on us will be greatly reduced."

"Yes, Bai'e, go ahead and do your job well. Your trial will come sooner or later."

Bai'e clenched his fists. "I'm always ready, Aglaya. I will definitely get the spark of strife!"

At this time.

A little red-haired girl ran over.

"Aya! Aya!"

"Teacher Tibao." Bai E turned his head.

"My teacher, what's wrong?"

Aglaya asked.

"Aya, Bai'e." Tibao ran over to the two of them and blinked. "'We've' discovered a ruin. The erosion of the black tide is spreading, and there are innocent people taking refuge there."

"I understand." Aglaya looked at Bai'e. "Go and bring them back to Ohma, where they will be protected by the Golden People."

...

the other side.

After discussing with Wan Di, Yaxu took action immediately. Considering the urgency of time, he and Wan Di each brought some people to persuade the tribes that were suffering from oppression in Xuanfeng City.

The Xuanfeng people fought everywhere, and those they defeated were either transformed into undead or enslaved. Some were assigned to work in Xuanfeng City, like the mountain people, or remained in their own tribes, but were required to pay tribute to Nikadori at regular intervals, paying large sums of money and supplies.

However, since the Golden War, Xuanfeng City has been declining, and Nikadori has also begun to fall. The influence of Xuanfeng City has decreased, and many oppressed tribes have begun to resist their rule.

These tribes were not large in scale, most of them were similar in size to the Tilkas, and a small number of them had a population of seven or eight hundred, which was already considered a "big force".

Because of the resistance of the major tribes, Xuanfeng City had to allocate part of its military forces to suppress them. The long-term chaos made the people living here miserable. Some tried to escape, while others continued to resist. When the eternal night fell, they actually had no way to escape.

In fact, the greater threat is the attack of the Black Tide. After all, Xuanfeng City is now busy forging swords and dealing with Ohma, so it simply cannot spare too many troops. Otherwise, these surrounding tribes would have been wiped out long ago.

Following the map given by Wan Di, Ash found a tribe of a man named 'Carlos'. Wan Di said that the tribe had only about 300 people, and it would be easier to recruit with a small number of people. But when he went in to take a look, he was shocked to see that there were no less than 100 people rushing out with weapons, and there were even more waiting behind them. It was preliminarily estimated that the total population of the Carlos tribe exceeded 500, more than Tilkas.

"Strangers, if you're not Xuan Feng's lackeys, then leave!" A sturdy man in light armor stood at the entrance of the village, spear in hand. "Carlos doesn't welcome anyone to visit!"

Ash greeted Wan Di's father directly in his mind.

Then he said: "My name is Ash, I come from Tilkas, and I am here to help you..."

call out! ——

An arrow shot out from the village and hit Ash in front of him, followed by curses coming from inside.

"Get out! Whoever you are, get out of Carlos. You are not welcome here!"

"Maybe he's a lackey of the Xuanfeng people, trying to deceive us. Don't trust him!"

"This guy has shifty eyes and doesn't look like a good person. He even has people with him. He must be a Xuanfeng man in disguise!"

Ash looked down at the arrow.

Listen to the greetings.

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"As expected, one must be virtuous to win people over."

After saying this, he waved his scepter, and golden soldiers stood up one after another from the barren land.

"Soldiers, not one... Oh, no," he quickly corrected himself, "Don't let any of them stand. Knock them all down."

He came here to reason, not to massacre the village.

Twenty minutes later, all of Carlos's guards were lying on the ground, having close contact with Giorlia.

There are a total of one hundred and eight heroes.

The rest, some of whom were holding shovels and hoes, stood in the village and did not dare to approach.

They were not soldiers, but there were quite a few of them, and they just had bad tempers. Considering that this place was under the coverage of Xuanfeng City, Yaxiu gave them a certain degree of tolerance based on objective factors.

Well, if you dare to insult the emperor, at least you will be beaten to death.

After ten minutes of educational theory, the Kalos people fully understood that Ash was not a despicable Xuanfeng person but a kind savior who came to save them.

"Master Ash, I seem to have heard of you. You are the Golden Descendant who withstood Nicardori's sharp arrows!"

Finally, someone from the Kalista clan spoke the truth.

"I see, that's what I misunderstood. You fought against the Xuanfeng Army. You're a hero!"

"Welcome hero... So, Master Ash, can you please stop the sand?"

Looking at the Kalos people whose expressions suddenly changed, Ash thought to himself, you are really some heroes.

However, although the Kalos people are foul-mouthed, they are straightforward and flexible. Ash is afraid of encountering those stubborn people who would rather die than listen to you say a word.

"People of Kalos, go to Tilkas. There, there will be no oppression from Xuanfeng, and the sun's light will shine equally on everyone." Ash said to them.

The Kalists looked at each other.

move?

It’s not that they haven’t thought about it, but can leaving their hometown and going somewhere else really make things better than now?

Even Ohema may not be able to live a stable life.

Ash waved his hand and summoned more sand soldiers.

The Carlos clan leader immediately expressed their willingness to follow the golden sun forever.

Although the Kalos people were reluctant to leave their homeland, they were captivated by Ash's charm and eventually scrambled to move their families to Tilkas to be blessed by the golden sun.

"It seems that Wan Di suggested that I come here first for a reason."

In fact, most people are like this. They are not going to be beheaded or taken away as slaves. Who doesn't want to live if they have a choice?

Of course, this is related to Ash's strong performance. If he was just a small fry and had no record of fighting against Nicardori, the result would be different.
