GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1834: Second Trial.



Legion, on the other hand, wasn't willing to spend too much divinity on something that they already had four of. Besides, they still don't know just how useful heroes will be. On the other hand, they know how useful golden light will be if it is upgraded.

They also don't think it is worth it to extort their whole pantheon for something like that. After all, they still have a great war against the humans to fight to reclaim their lands, so they think it is a good idea to have powerful godly assistants instead of mortal assistants.

Fighting the humans won't be a war between gods. It will be a war between races so it is best to have other gods on their side. They are already preparing for that just as they are preparing to have heroes.

Meanwhile, the other clones were making progress in the tunnel. They finally reached the end after an hour of grueling work. They were finally faced with a new type of obstacle.

There were 6 tunnels in front of them. The tunnels are brightly lit and devoid of Skeletal Revenants. In fact, the ones they had encountered left them when they became too close to these tunnels. But they don't know which tunnel to take forward.

So they asked their angel. "Is this a maze? Which tunnel should we pick?"

It replied with thrill, "Every tunnel is correct if only one person takes it. That's why there are six tunnels for you. The trial wants to separate you."

Legion-4 asked with a sneer, "What if we refuse?"

The angel replied, "As long as more than one person takes a tunnel, it will continue to branch into two to separate them. If they refuse to separate, then the tunnel will continue to branch without end."

Legion-1 said in relief, "So it is not targeting us personally."

The angel shook its tiny head. "No, it is not targeting you personally because of your clones. Most trials are like this. It is completely normal to separate everyone."

Legion-2 asked, "What will we encounter if we separate?"

It replied, "It is most likely the second part of the trial. Don't ask me more because I don't know. But I do know that if you don't separate, you will never access this trial."

Legion-4 complained, "If this were the void universe, we would be able to teleport to each other. But now we have no choice except to separate."

Legion-7 said, "No, we do have a choice. There is something we can do."

As entities that like to break the rules of the world to have their way, they don't like playing along the rules. They are currently limited in what they can do, but they know one thing for certain, and that is they can only participate in the second trial alone. If that is so, only one of them is needed to pass the second trial.

So they decided to send just one of them forward. Whatever the clone encounters will be passed across to the other clones. The remaining clones will use that knowledge to make a better attempt at the second trial. That way, they will have six chances to pass the trial, and each attempt will have a better chance of success than the previous one.

They first sent the one with the highest survivability amongst them. They are Legion-1 and Legion-4 who have 8,000 in their Endurance. They sent Legion-4 and also gave him Golden Light so that he would have a strong attack too.

Legion-4 chose a tunnel and entered it. Behind him, the tunnel closed and disappeared. The space it was in shrank to make it look like it never existed.

Legion-4 didn't stop to look back. His clones have done that for me. They had also lost sight of him after his tunnel shrank.

He continued forward for a short distance until he appeared within a spherical cavern. An enemy was waiting for him in the middle of the cavern.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

It was a cyclops. It had one eye and one golden harmer. It was completely golden. It even shone with a metallic sheen. It had runes tattooed all over its skin, and it was also wearing golden armor.

Its eyes opened and glared at him. This single eye shone with a bright red light that was ominous to behold.

It said, "Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert!"

Legion-4 used insight on it. What he saw made his eye twitch.

NAME: Guardian Hammar

RACE: Golem

TIER: 2

LEVEL: 100

HP: 10,000,000

STRENGTH: 40,000

ENDURANCE: 50,000

SPEED: 10,000

DIVINE ABILITY: REPAIR. SECOND PHASE. THIRD PHASE.

WEAPON: THREE-PHASE SHIFT (Attack Power = Strength + Total Divinity). BULWARK ARMOR (Endurance + Total Divinity).

STATUS: Hostile.

It was a golem, not a skeleton, a divine beast, or a god. But it was tier 2, the equivalent of a domain god.

Legion-4 exclaimed, "No way."

His angel commented beside him, "This is the trial of strength. It should be very easy for any domain god."

"But I am not a domain god," he said as he struck the golem with a divine strike.

The sharp ray of light struck it in its chest with an attack power of 268,000. He had wanted to hit its exposed neck since its head was protected with a helmet. But the golem had stepped forward into the attack, which made it strike its chest.

-You have hit Guardian Hammar.

-Attack Successful.

-You have dealt 118,000 damage.

HIS attack of 268,000 had been reduced to 118,000 because of the armor and endurance of the golem. It was a 56% reduction in power that only caused a 1.18% decrease in its health pool.

It made his eye twitch because he could already see how other gods would fair against this golem if he was already having this much difficulty with it. But his angel was cheerful and optimistic about the situation.

It said to him, "See? Things aren't so bad. 84 more of that, and you will kill it."
