GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1586: Stalemate Breaker.



Some of the Supreme Origin gods have used their Supreme Laws several times, and some of them have even died. That's many Origin cycles worth of Origin essence production that they were saving for the era of conquest gone to waste in a fight of a few months.

After all, not many Supreme Origin gods have world fragments to help them bear the burden of their Supreme Law. In fact, there are more Supreme Origin gods than Origin gods with world fragments.

So even if there were no era of conquest to make them give up on Legion temporarily, it is not certain that they will be able to afford the fight if it continues for ten thousand years.

The only thing that is certain is that they won't give up. Legion is also determined never to capitulate. This fight will continue for the rest of the era of conquest, if it must. They are determined not to be the ones to break first.

However, not everyone is patient enough for that. One of these impatient people is the Supreme Alliance. After all, a stalemate is not in their best interests. So they interfered to shake things up.

They want to do something to put Legion down. They had tried a lot of things to break this stalemate, but they all failed. So they decided to do something that they had only planned to do to take down the realm lord.

One of the Supreme Beasts monitoring the fight spoke to someone on the other line of communication, "How is it?"

The person on the other line replied, "His parents are alive and well. They also haven't left the realm."

"Bring them here quickly. I don't care how you do it."

A few minutes later, the person on the other line called back and said, "They are on their way now and have been prepped for the plan."

"Good. We will try to lead him over. Nothing must go wrong. We have a lot counting on this." Currently, all three clones present in the realm are surrounded completely. The Supreme Alliance doesn't know which clone is which since all of them look alike most of the time and they use the nine golden orbs.

Plus, their features and positions are blurred most of the time due to the warping around them caused by Supreme Laws in the constant fighting. Probably only Supreme beings can see them due to the movements being at the limit of the light side.

Weaker beings can only catch glimpses of the clones, but that's already enough to fool Soverick's parents and implant the idea that the clones are their children. Once the idea had been implanted, it was easy to hypnotize their minds and make them do something stupid.

Then Litori's ancestor, who was currently pretending to be Litori, worked together with Salvini to bring his parents over. All that remains is for Soverick or one of the clones to take the bait. Legion will be done for as long as he takes the bait.

The five of them arrived on the battlefield soon after. Salvini tried to get close to one of the clones while the enemies around that clone pushed him towards her.

This clone happened to be Soverick. He saw Salvini and the rest. Some distance away from Salvini are Mihila and Ghoto. They are standing beside Litori's ancestor and Litori.

The last two are hidden, but they can't hide from his eyes. The state of Litori, Mihila, and Ghoto's minds also didn't escape his sight, and their plans couldn't hide from his eyes either. He saw it, both the past and the present, clearly, which made him suspicious.

He thought to himself and other clones, "They have always managed to keep their plans hidden, but they have failed this time. Why is that?"

Legion-5 replied, "There is clearly something very suspicious here. This is a trap, and they are the bait."

Soverick's eyes roamed over the timeline of the present, past, and future, using the full ability of his eye. He still couldn't see Litori's ancestor's past, but he could see that of Salvini, Litori, Ghoto, and Mihila. He saw how his parents were manipulated into coming here, and he also saw what the Supreme Alliance is currently using them for.

"My success in seeing Ghoto and Mihila's past is understandable, but seeing Salvini's is odd. There's only one reason I can think of for why this is possible. The First Sage must have given up on her. And here I thought she was his precious child of the realm."

Legion-7 laughed, "This is quite exquisite. I wonder what price they offered the First Sage to make him allow Salvini to come."

Salvini is the bait. It is surprising to him that the first sage is willing to risk her because he can see her death in the future. If he can see her death, so must the First Sage, which means the First Sage is willing to sacrifice her. He thought she was important, but here she is.

He thought about it some more. "There must be more going on here. Maybe the first sage has something secret planned."

Then he chuckled. "Of course, the first sage must have something else planned. When has he ever had a single plan?"

What he can see is already a lot, so he can only wonder about the magnitude of the things that are hidden. He is sure that there are hidden agendas to this trap, though. There has to be one, or Salvini's death won't benefit the first sage.

That didn't stop him from taking action, though. He continued to approach Salvini. In fact, he put in extra effort to approach her. Every enemy in his was destroyed quickly to make their encounter faster. This is because he saw the slim chance of breaking this situation in the trap.

He is surrounded by deadly barbs both in the present and in the future. But there is a silver lining. There is a light in the darkness of the future. He is willing to wade through the darkness of the present to grasp that slim chance of breakthrough.
