Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

The golden lion head said hoarsely:

“Wang…Zhu…”

Wan Di quickly replied:

"The lion head... so many years have passed, are you still awake?"

“Maide… Moss…” the golden lion’s voice was weak.

“I will never...forget your voice. I have always...waited for this moment.”

Upon hearing this, Wan Di's expression became excited.

“Speak, my teacher! I will listen to your teachings.”

The golden lion head said hoarsely:

“Wang Zhu… Xuanfeng City has lost everything.”

"Its people...traditions...and most precious...glory."

"Wait... what's that behind you...?"

Wan Di turned around, glanced at Yan Huan and Bai E, and replied to the Golden Lion Head:

"These are the warriors who returned with me."

"..." The golden lion head fell silent.

"My master? My master...?"

“Maide… Moss…”

"Run away...you'll bring disaster to your side..."

"Disaster?"

Bai E and Yan Huan, standing behind Wan Di, exchanged a glance. "Are they talking about us?"

Yan Huan stroked her chin and pondered:

“We’re here to take down Nicardoli, and we’re certainly not good people to this city-state.”

"No... I didn't mean those..."

The golden lion head looked at Yan Huan:

"Our gods... have completely lost their minds."

"Even if you want to punish it, it's perfectly reasonable..."

"It is no longer the revered war symbol... It has fallen, and is brewing a glorious conspiracy..."

“But…Medemos…”

The golden lion's voice grew weaker and weaker.

“Destiny…”

"..."

"My master? My master!" Seeing that the golden lion head had lost its life, Wan Di was filled with grief.

Chapter 1200: Actually, we can go back.

He attempted to awaken the golden lion head once more.

"My master—respond to me! In the name of the King, I command you…!"

“…Wan Di!” Bai E pressed Wan Di’s shoulder. “Let it rest. It must be tired.”

"..."

"Ugh."

Wan Di fell silent.

Recalling what the golden lion head had just said, he addressed the two of them:

"...Perhaps what he just said was just the dying words of an old lion. Let's not take it to heart and continue on our way."

"Wait a moment."

Bai E took out a stone slab and handed it to Wan Di.

“This is what we received earlier; we almost forgot about it.”

"The above seems to be an ancient saying about a suspended peak, which we cannot decipher."

"Let me see." Wan Di took it and carefully read the ancient characters on it.

"..."

The more he looked, the deeper his brow furrowed.

"...Let me read it to you."

Wan Di held the stone slab and said in a deep voice:

"...Although the Black Tide is an unknown enemy, if used properly, it can become a powerful tool for us to deal with our nemesis."

"We can order infiltrators to transport a number of contaminated relatives, wrap them in a special layer of soil, and mix them into the cargo carried by the Earth Beast caravan, so as to take the opportunity to infiltrate Ohma."

"After entering the city, take advantage of the darkness to send people to hide their families in various places in the city."

“After a few days, the soil will weather and crumble, and the foul smell of the family will linger in the streets and alleys of Ohma.”

"???" Yan Huan's eyes widened. "Black Tide? Does this mean that the corpses of the Heavenly Punishment soldiers, contaminated by a plague called Black Tide, are sent into the city and hidden away, then used to infect ordinary people?"

"That's roughly the gist of it." Wan Di glanced at Yan Huan. "I haven't finished reading yet, don't interrupt me."

He continued reading:

"By then, the people of Ohm will be exhausted from searching for the source of the pollution."

"We only need to wait until they are in a panic before we can take the decisive step: gather the spirits of the heroes in the city, let the blade of divine punishment point directly at Ohma, and pierce the entire city-state with the brilliance of the sword of strife."

"Then the army will press on, crushing everything in its path, achieving a once-in-a-lifetime victory, and the spoils will finally fall into our hands."

"..."

Thus, the ancient saying about the suspended peak on the stone slab has been translated.

“No… Nicardoli would never…” Wan Di fell into deep self-doubt.

Bai'er's expression turned serious. "No wonder Ohmma was attacked. I never thought that a Titan who has fallen into madness could still have such a scheme..."

"Is this really the Titan of Strife?" Yan Huan was somewhat shocked after hearing the whole story.

"Is this the Deceptive Titan?"

"To wrap the bodies of the plague victims in soil and secretly send them into the city-state, then hide them and wait for the soil to weather away and detoxify the inhabitants... Isn't that the act of a beast?"

"Sigh, I never imagined that Nicardoli had gone this far." Wan Di frowned.

"In short, Ohmma is facing annihilation and someone must come to its aid."

“No, that’s not right.” Bai E shook his head.

"We must move forward and complete our mission."

"?" Upon hearing Bai E's reply, Wan Di was furious and said:

"Have you been blinded by the pursuit of fame and fortune? I've said it before: if we want to achieve victory, we must mobilize the entire army!"

Bai E still insists:

“We are only one step away from Nicardoli. Once we defeat the source of evil, the conspiracy will dissipate.”

"Just like that terrible blow, you and I are also arrows released from a bow."

“Nikadori can bring annihilation to Ohma, and vice versa.”

He turned to look at Yan Huan.

"Moreover, I trust Aglaia and Teacher Tibo."

“Ohmah is guarded by two demigods, as well as our companions; they can protect the holy city.”

"..."

Seeing that the two had a disagreement, Yan Huan couldn't help but take out her phone.

"Why don't we just send a message back and that's it?"

“No, there’s no Aglaia’s gold thread here.” Wan Di shook his head.

"Communication can only be made using the communication stone tablets within the city of Ohmma."

Simply put, there is no signal anywhere outside of Ohmma.

The signal source of the communication stone tablet was the demigod Aglaia.

"..." Yan Huan fell silent.

Even at the level of a demigod, the signal can only cover one city.

A complete temporary mobile signaling system would also work.

"Never mind, I'll go back to Ohma City."

Even though it wasn't her original body, Yan Huan could still transfer within the marked area of ​​Ohma.

"It's just delivering a message, it'll only take three minutes. You two wait here for me."

"What?" Wan Di raised an eyebrow.

"You also possess the abilities of the God of Gates?"

The next moment, the portal opened right next to the three of them.

Yan Huan was about to step in when she suddenly stopped and turned to look at the two of them.

"Um... how about we go back together?"
