Greed All For What Chapter 1649

[ … words ]

The realm became full of hungry black grotesque flesh fighting and killing everything within reach. This was the hell that the whole Tyrant realm had been plunged into.

Even the demon gods struggled to survive. They couldn’t corrode or overwrite the black tentacles, so their resistance was useless. They were torn apart little by little, so they could only escape for their lives.

The whole plane was emptied in less than an hour. By that time, every inhabitant of the realm and invader had been dealt with. There was no more food in the realm for the giant black ball of flesh to sustain itself, so it stretched its tentacles into the dungeon portals to reach the High Heaven realm. It was there that it met resistance again.

There were still many Origin gods that didn’t die in the Tyrant realm. They were the ones that had managed to escape and the ones that didn’t but were resurrected in the high heaven realm. All of them were blocking the way into the high heaven realm.

It was full hands on deck because the reward for this mission was generous. The space within the dungeons was small, so the tentacles couldn’t overwhelm the defenders like they did before. Even so, they were struggling to keep the tentacles from entering the high heaven realm and ravaging it. It is because each tentacle was a Supreme Origin god and was coordinating with each other perfectly.

The high heaven realm was experiencing a crisis like no other. Mother High Heaven was constantly calling for more help and issuing quests to defend the realm.

Their resistance slowed down the encroachment of the black tentacles into the high heaven realm, but it also gave it food to sustain itself.

The situation of the era of conquest appeared to have turned around. The Tyrant Realm had not only chased out every invader, but it had even begun counterattacks. Things couldn’t be better for it.

Unfortunately, things could be better. In fact, things were better in the past before the appearance of the black ball. At that time, there were a lot of living things in the realm, which served as the foundation of the Will of the Tyrant Realm. Those living things are gone now, which caused the Tyrant Realm to weaken drastically.

The Tyrant Realm only has this black ball of flesh as its foundation now. It has been weakened qualitatively. Its power is falling from the world god realm quickly. It will also die when the black ball dies. So its defeat is certain at this point because the black ball will die soon.

But things are worse than that. The Will of the Tyrant realm will die when the black ball dies even if there are no enemies trying to kill it. Unfortunately, there are enemies at its neck currently trying to split its throat.

It was still resisting the Will of Mother High Heaven before the appearance of the black ball. But the black ball was made of Supreme Tyrants, who are entities to which it granted its power.

The bestowal of power was to create defenders strong enough to defeat the invaders in the absence of reinforcement. That mission has been taken to its limits now. The defenders of becoming parasites, draining the power of the realm.

The black ball has acquired the power of a realm lord through this action by doing what Monarch High Heaven didn’t do throughout the era of conquest. It is drawing heavily on the dwindling power of the Will of the realm to fight against the defenders in the dungeon and killing the Will in the process.

It has succeeded in killing or chasing away the invaders. It is even about to destroy the last defenders of high heaven realm. Those are all great, but it came at a great cost of weakening the already weakened Will of the realm, to fall from the power of world god to that of Supreme Origin god.

This is a significant quantitative weakening. Since the Will of the Realm has become too weak to fight back now, it will surely die before the black ball dies. So the Tyrant Race are not the heroes they think they are for sacrificing themselves. They are the ones that will kill their realm tree.

They followed the advice that GREED gave them, but it was not going to save them. Instead, it is bringing a swift end to the era of conquest.

This is the situation that Legion met when they joined in on the era of conquest. They have to decide to either help the high heaven realm for some contribution points or take a massive risk to help the Tyrant realm and somehow increase the benefits they will gain from this era of conquest or do both or do none.

—-Awakening.

Legion-1 was the first to awaken. He was not really dead in the first place. After all, his inner world, the world fragment was still around. If not for the backlash from their actions, it would have been easy for him to awaken.

All he needed to do was regenerate, not ressurrect. But the void universe was actively inhibiting his regeneration and even wearing him down to stop him from awakening.

If not for the fact that he hadn’t actually died, he might remain unconscious for at least two more Origin cycles. Instead, he spent 15,000 years sleeping.

Legion-1 awakened and then directed his efforts towards resurrecting Legion-7. Legion-7 reappeared in the world fragment and began the resurrection of the other clones. His existence sped up their awakening since they didn’t have to rely much on the Will of the void universe anymore.

The nine of them were soon assembled. They didn’t speak. Their mood was heavy, and their mind was full. This defeat didn’t make them doubt themselves or lose confidence. After all, they lost to a world god. That is completely normal. It is extra normal since the first sage is not an ordinary world god.
