Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 477 The Filth Within the Holy City

It's unclear whether Yunzhi's threat had any effect; he himself only said those words with the intention of "just having some fun."

Faced with a large number of electronic life forms that were basically already programmed, Yunzhi did not expect to stop them with just a few words.

But regardless of whether this so-called Senate can move towards the future—at least they have to get used to Yun Zhi giving them orders from now on.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to survive (laughs).

Katniss, perhaps choked by the cloud, glared at Aglaia fiercely before turning and leaving.

"He's addicted to bad food."

Yun casually made a comment, then looked at Aglaia:

"In times of peace, internal struggles are left to individual abilities, but if things are like this on the outside, then internal struggles are simply foolish."

Aglaia smiled helplessly:

"Since the Golden War, the Senate has controlled Ohm, and even the Fire Chase was interrupted... It's not that they don't understand this, it's just that power is more important to them."

Yunzhi seemed to have thought of something, and let out a cold sneer:

"Yes, power is more important. Power is so good. It can be passed down, and people's lives can be controlled. It's like a god who is high above."

However, Yunzhi did not continue reminiscing about the past.

There's no need to keep thinking about those things; let's focus on the present.

"Come on, show me how many surprises Ohmma has in store."

Aglaia: ...

For some reason, she suddenly hallucinated a large cat that seemed to be patrolling its territory.

"I thought you would prefer to rest first."

Aglaia said softly.

Yun Zhi shook his head: "I've suddenly lost the mood. Your Senate is truly a great energizer."

Aglaia did not object further:

"Then, I'll leave it to you."

--------------

Traveling with people of the Golden Age is not surprising.

Traveling with Aglaia, the leader of the Golden Clan...

I remember when we first arrived in Ohma, Beer seemed to have told them that his companions weren't as easy to talk to as he was.

Yun Zhi felt that this statement was incorrect. At least all the Golden Descendants he had met were easy to talk to, and they were more able to understand human speech than the Senate member he had just met.

We must not alert the guards of the holy city, nor let the people of Ohma know that their city is no longer safe.

In Yunzhi's opinion, in the current environment, safety is not really important.

Even someone as carefree as them is still worried...

The characteristic of "mystery" suddenly flashed through Yunzhi's mind.

—Life born from mystery will disappear if its secrets are exposed.

...Let's not discuss the twilight of Ohma for now.

Aglaia's golden threads covered the entire city of Ohma, and virtually nothing in the holy city could escape her notice.

Following the golden thread to find the source of the disturbance within the holy city, in a corner that wasn't particularly bustling but could still cause incalculable damage if something went wrong, Aglia's golden thread pulled out a...

A purple, murky water sprite? Wait, does this have a model?

It's no wonder he thought that way; the creature's appearance was so similar to the monsters in some games from the past that it brought back distant memories. Yunzhi seemed to see his past when he was brutally defeated by local legends while playing games.

"Hey, ouch! Who is it? Who's blind...?"

The purple, murky water sprite spoke in human language, seemingly having been asleep, but was dragged out by Aglaia's golden threads.

Aglaia seemed to have anticipated this as well:

"Bartleus?"

The thief spirit Bartrus is a unique creature of Onpharos.

Yun glanced at Bartrus's head.

Bartlus also had a code on its head, which wasn't very clear at first glance, but Yunzhi remembered that these electronic life forms with codes on their heads should be important factors simulated by the scepter.

I didn't realize that the Water Sprite was also a Golden Descendant.

...No, it seems there's no such code in the twelve factors.

Bartlus finally recognized who was in front of him.

"Ah...ah! It's Lady Aglaia! Praise be to Faker, every inch of your skin shines as brightly as the dawn machine in the sky."

Bartlus's attitude changed drastically.

What was that saying again? "To be deferential at first and then obsequious is laughable."

Aglaia didn't make things difficult for Bartrus, but simply asked him why he was there and inquired about the whereabouts of an old friend.

But I didn't ask.

That one named "Saifei'er" is also a demigod.

Yun glanced behind Bartrus.

He raised his hand and chopped down on Bartlus's unusually bouncy head—

"Although it has nothing to do with me, you'd better leave your illegal gains here first."

Yun calmly said, "Don't even think about running away. Our faction is known for its speed. If you don't want to be chased around Onphalos a hundred times, you'd better hand over the money obediently."

Bartlus: ...No, who are you?

Aglaia: ...That last sentence is a bit strange.

Aglaia, who had originally intended to get Bartrus to vomit up the stolen goods, did not stop him.

Bartlus really wanted to run.

But the moment that thought popped into his head, Yunzhi grabbed fate by the back of the head.

It feels really good, so bouncy and chewy.

Why not grab him by the neck?

Oh, I didn't see the neck.

Having finally found a modeled creature among the indigenous people, Yunzhi really wanted to take a closer look.

Unfortunately, there were more important things to deal with.

Unable to break free, Bartlus could only reluctantly drop what he had stolen and walk away, looking dejected.

The treasure chest was simply left on the ground.

Yes, Xing will come soon, drawn by the scent.

"Let's split up and go to the next place, Ms. Aglaia."

Yun looked around.

In fact, there weren't many enemies who had infiltrated. If it weren't for the fact that she didn't want to alert the residents inside the holy city, Aglaia would have dealt with them very quickly.

Aglaia agreed to the proposal:

"Well then, I'll head east first; the next nymph is nearby."

Yun Zhi turned around, waved her hand with her back to her, and said, "If I run into any unpleasant guys, I'll deal with them myself."

The enemy needs no further explanation.

For example, Katniss, whom we just saw.
