GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1899: Falling And Falling.



He was right to say that as the white dust on his body began to shine. It created a white pillar of light that ascended into the sky. The pillar of light reached the divine realm and entered his hotel, where his true body was. Then it pulled his true body to the mortal realm.

This happened slowly, but it couldn't be stopped because Legion-4's true body had become intangible. The other clones couldn't hold on to him to prevent him from falling to the mortal realm.

His true body had been forced to descend to the mortal realm with so much force that the collision between him and the earth caused it to crack and create shockwaves that turned into earthquakes.

The white pillar of light disappeared after it had done its job. What was left of it were white chains binding him tightly. They weakened him and also restricted his movements.

The god of adventure shouted, "Quick, kill him."

They had aimed at Legion-3 because he was the one holding the spear. They thought that if they eliminated him, the Orc Bandits wouldn't be able to use Golden Light against them until he resurrected.

They were wrong, but Legion wasn't going to correct them. In fact, they were so far as to sacrifice one of them to prevent their enemies from learning their lesson.

The human gods didn't want Legion-4, but they couldn't complain. They rushed at him to kill, which gave Legion-3 another opportunity to kill 2 more of them. That reduced their number to five.

Legion-4 was a sitting duck. All they needed to do was kill him. They could kill him with anything they had at their disposal. As long as he died in this shackled state, his true body would die too, which will make him drop his divinity and extra domain.

The clones put up a resistance to prevent this. They behaved as if the threat was real. But they shouldn't have bothered because the white chains around Legion-4 broke apart in less than a second.

The shackles shattered and disappeared, which made Legion-4's true body ascend back to the divine plane. Meanwhile, the human gods had done everything in their might to get close to him. They had even sacrificed two more of their allies so that they could kill him.

But their prize was gone just when they were about to reap it, and their sacrifice was for naught. The human gods were completely and utterly shocked.

One of them asked, "What the hell just happened?"

The other four were just as confused. They couldn't give an answer because they couldn't fathom one.

They had expected at least five seconds of weakness, not one second. In fact, they didn't even get one second. They had gone all in, so now they were caught with their pants down but had nothing to do.

Only the clones knew what had happened. They knew that Legion-4 became free earlier than usual because God's Fall became greedy. It tried to shackle all of them, not just Legion-4. It had bitten off more than it could chew, so its teeth shattered.

The human gods didn't give up, though. They roared and continued to fight.

It is because they didn't think they had anything to lose at this point. Their Oracles weren't anywhere around, and the weapons they are using are disposable.

Besides, they couldn't escape even if they wanted to. They were sure to die after getting too close to the orc bandits in a bid to reach Legion-4. They decided that if they were going to die, they should take at least one orc bandit with them. So they kept on fighting.

Their numbers dwindled one by one while they managed to hit another clone. But the same thing happened again. It only worked for less than a second.

This didn't sit well with the human gods. They roared in anguish. "This isn't right. Why are you so strong?"

Legion-5 asked, "Why are you so weak?"

Then one of them roared in pain as they died. "Noooo!!!"

The god of adventure tried to negotiate, "Let us talk about this. You can take half of the kingdom and keep the slaves you have."

Legion-2 asked, "Do you even have the right to make such a promise? You're just a hired thug here."

Another human god backed her up. "We promise not to contest your sovereignty over the land. Isn't that what you want? We will publicly cede the land to you forever. We will even sign a divine contract to that effect."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Legion didn't take the deal. They had already killed six of the gods, leaving four. Why would they settle for half when they could have the whole thing with a little more effort?

Besides, the land is no longer their priority at this point. They had to have the domains of the god of adventure. That's the only way they will be content after their mortal army suffered so much loss.

Eventually all 10 domain gods were killed. They left behind 8 Gods' Fall, which Legion kept. They also left behind a total of 3 domains.

Then Legion went on to destroy the capital. They went beyond that to wipe out all the cities and strongholds of the humans in Thames. They killed anything that looked like a human soldier and destroyed anything that looked like a fortification.

There were a lot of such buildings, but they were mostly empty. This was especially so for areas close to the border of the next kingdom. The places were mostly empty with a scant amount of humans still living in them.

So they destroyed mostly empty buildings, as most of their inhabitants had gone. Apparently their priests led them away to some promised land.

This migration had started as soon as the orc host formed. At that time, the human gods had begun to prepare for their impending loss. Recent events have proven that they were right to prepare for that.
