Chapter 577 Tyrants' Dungeon (1)
"Sorry, I am late," Billy said. "Shall we start then?"
"Wow, the nerve of someone who had just got here and made us wait for six hours to act like nothing has happened," Lucyna said. "I guess even if the sky turn upside down, Billy will never change."
"Well, we can always waste more time with you guys trying to complain," Billy said.
"... Are your golems here?" Meryl asked.
"They are ready to attack at any moment," Billy said. "As for the plan, I am supposed only to attack the manipulator only once you three have died or something?"
"You don't have to go that far…" Icarus said and then sighed. "It would be better if you helped deal with his minions to prevent them from messing with the fight. There is also the fact that something might change you if you get another power."
"Talk about being unreasonable…" Billy said and shrugged. "All right, let's see how this plan of yours will work."

The group split up to assume their positions, they had no idea how the manipulator would act, so they had to block all his escape routes. As for Billy, he was watching things from the top of a mountain. Despite the fact that the darkness of the night and the fact that his golems were hidden underground, he could see them well. He also could sense them since they were made with his mana... at least a portion of them. Since he watched them work for so long, he could tell the changes they could make on the mana of the enviroment.
When the time came, the ground of the entire area began to tremble. It wasn't an earthquake. It was just Billy-making dude that no enemy would escape that attack. Eventually, a massive and thick Earth wall that covered the entire enemy camp emerged from the ground. It was quite something since the area being controlled by the manipulator was like hundreds of square miles. Still, Billy had enough Golems to pull that off. Not to mention they worked on building the largest tunnel in the world for the last month, so their earth Manipulation improved by leaps and bounds.
The salamanders began to move even without their rides and used their flames attacks to melt the walls. While they caused some damage, the walls were quickly repaired by the Golems. Upon noticing that their damage output was quite low, Billy sent his second wave of Golems.
Billy had 150.000 golems in his command, and he split them into two groups. The first group was supposed to make the wall, and depending on their result, the second group would attack or help with the blockade. The salamanders weren't fazed by the arrival of those monsters. Still, they were bombarded by thousands of stone cannons before they could do much.
Using Telekinesis, Billy flew to the top of the nearest wall and then began to watch the battlefield from there. The other three still were behind, so he probably would be the first to draw the attention of the Manipulator. While that was against their strategy, it also would help them find him faster.
The riders finally decided to join the fray, but they already had lost many of the salamanders. Trying to mount them in the middle of the battlefield was quite stupid since the golems were attacking everything on sight with a barrage of stone cannons. Still, Billy nodded, impressed when they saw them charging toward the golems armed with spears along and reflecting the stone cannons.
"I suppose something like that is to be expected given their statuses… they have gotten a lot better since the last time I checked them," Billy thought.
That was weird, given that they weren't moving that much and attacking other tribes, but their master probably had found a way to overcome that problem. He also had a dungeon under his control, and it must be a pretty good one.
"I never asked Meryl, but I guess those two destroyed the dungeons that they wouldn't use… I can't call them self-centered, but…" Billy said.
Regardless, the fallen soldiers weren't that much of a problem with their skills. When those dumbasses got too close, the earth golems made earth spears emerge from the ground, and dozens of them were impelled.

Billy was also gaining a lot of mana, so he used to level up Enhance Thievery even more. In any case, the salamanders and the fallen soldiers were in a bad spot due to the surprise attack. With their violent nature, things even got more complicated since they didn't have the power to control themselves in a situation that they weren't used to. Still, they were supposed to be controlled by the Manipulator, so eventually, they had to regroup to fight in an organized eventually… But that never happened.
"He must be inside the dungeon and not fully aware of what is happening here," Billy thought.
Since that was the case, Billy decided to make his Golems speed up with his hunt. The fallen soldiers and the salamanders weren't the only enemies that they had to deal with. While it was a pretty simple one, the Manipulator created a society that helped his minions. Billy wasn't sure if all of them were under his control, but he couldn't afford to care about that. Meryl also said that she wanted to kill all of his followers if possible because, with his powers, he had made people infiltrate tribes and kill everyone after they gained their trust.
