GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1565: The Heat Is On.



All the Supreme Alliance needs to do is act generous by offering them just one set of world seed and world engine for the secret to becoming world gods without Supreme Laws. It is obviously a cheap price to pay, but if Legion is desperate enough, they might take it.

Legion-1 said to them, "This is a problem that can only be solved by strength, and we are not lacking in it. Plus, we are immortal and rich. But this scheme will set us back in terms of resources and time. We can't have that if we are to contribute well to the era of conquest."

Soverick was not so optimistic. He said, "That's just the start. Surely the Supreme Alliance knows that we are immortal. I propose that we should be very careful from now on. This is surely not the end of their schemes."

Aeternus added, "We can't stay on the defensive either. Being passive is not a long-term solution."

Helios asked, "But what can we do to damage the Supreme Alliance? Preferably something that can benefit us too. At the very least, it should be able to solve the problem we have found ourselves in."

None of the clones could answer that question. Not even Soverick could think of something. The situation the Supreme Alliance has put them in is irreversible. It is an egg that has dropped and broken. It can't be fixed without some time-warping shenanigan, which is something the void universe forbids.

Soverick said helplessly, "This problem all started when we gained the attention of the dragon king. It was then that all of our secrets were exposed. He must have told the Supreme Alliance, and now they are using it against us."

Legion-5 said with determination, "At the end of the day, only strength can save us. We have to continue growing stronger."

Aeternus agreed, "We grow stronger and make sure everyone that crosses us regrets it."

They have a terrible conundrum on their hands because this problem is not a problem that can be solved with brute strength. Their secrets have been exposed, and there's nothing they can do to erase that problem.

It means that their enemies will be informed and won't fight them with ignorance. It will make brute strength less effective.

The most effective solution they can think of is to make the information about them obsolete by becoming stronger. That way, their power will become effective again.

They will also be able to deter people from attacking them when they get stronger. That is going to be difficult to do considering their enemies are immortals with nothing to lose, so they have to make sure the Origin gods lose something whenever they fight.

Legion-8 lamented, "It is going to be nearly impossible to deter Supreme Origin gods. We can't seal them, and we can't make them lose their power or memories, even with Chaos energy. This is going to be difficult."

He is truly pissed. It is going to be difficult to make immortal people regret their actions if they don't lose anything. Even now, Legion has found out that some Origin gods have invaded the Zargoth plane and are destroying it in an effort to find them.

All of Legion's work in the plane is going down the drain. The Virut plane is also being searched, but the Origin gods are more restrained because of the racial council.

The Origin gods searching for them would have attacked the Lumen plane were it still around. It is not around anymore, but there are certain Origin gods who have some information about a certain unique Warrog responsible for the destruction of the plane and are telling everyone who would listen about that Warrog.

Legion hasn't been attacked yet, but they already know that the hunt for them has begun from this information and from the feeling of being scryed as various entities are trying to divine their position.

No one knew about them before, so they were not important enough to be scryed, and their enemies didn't have enough information for their scrying to be accurate. But now information about them is aplenty, so even races with a smidgen of divination talent have enough information about them to find.

If not for Aeternus and the influence of Chaos energy from him, people would be able to find them easily. But Soverick can tell that people aren't giving up. A lot of people are using Supreme Laws to track them.

The effect of the move by the Supreme Alliance is just starting, and they are already feeling the heat. If things continue like this, then they might not have a place in the High Heaven Realm anymore and might even have to hide and run in the immortal lands when world gods come after them.

Legion-8 is so angry that he wants to pay back the Supreme Alliance for their move. The best thing he can do to make them feel pain is to attack their hatcheries and kill their young.

Unfortunately, that is not going to benefit Legion more than a short moment of emotional pleasure. Considering that the Supreme Alliance might be prepared for that, it is safe to say that they might be expecting them and might have set up a trap for them.

So they are not going to let Legion-8 kill the young Supreme Beasts that he has infected. It is not possession, so the Supreme Alliance didn't discover the tentacles that he had deposited in them.

Killing the young will surely hurt the Supreme Alliance, but it won't give Legion any tangible benefits. Besides, they can tell through Soverick's foresight that a better option is going to come out of it in the future. So it is best they keep that move for when it will bring them the best benefits.

At the end of the day, they decided to continue what they were doing here, trying to earn contribution points. They will hide doing that while trying to construct their Supreme Laws.
