GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?-Chapter 1515 Waste Not, Want Not.
Chapter 1515 Waste Not, Want Not.
?Everyone ignored Ragnarok. The smart thing right now was to escape, which they did. Unfortunately, there is no escape for them. The whole plane has already been enveloped by a large cloud of black fire.
A voice came from the barrier around the plane. It chuckled and said, "Hehe. There is no escape for you. You will all die here."
There is a black apparition with four golden eyes and two golden horns outside the plane. This apparition is producing a copious amount of Chaos energy that has formed a cocoon around the plane. This cocoon sealed the whole plane and everything within it.
This is Legion's backup plan in case they fail to acquire Legion-8's heart. At least they won't leave empty handed. It goes without saying that they don't plan to let anyone go today. If they fail, then everyone should lose something.
They didn't fail, but both the Supreme Beasts and dragons here will still die. They will all be fed to Aeternus. It is not about revenge anymore. It is just making the best of what's available. They had to do so because Legion doesn't like waste.
Ragnarok laughed again. "I said it was too late."
He couldn't help but smirk. The two races think they can deceive Legion and backstab them. Then they have another thing coming. They will all die today.
The strength of every Origin god will fall to the one star level when Aeternus is done with them. Even the Origin gods with Supreme Laws will suffer even if they don't die. They will be the ones who wish they could die.
The two races are behemoths, sure, but Legion is no slouch either. A demon god can take on a whole plane. Aeternus could do that before he was a demon god. Now that he is a demonic spark, he alone is enough to grant them the confidence to wipe out all their enemies. They don't even need the other clones to bully them.
The realm lord and Mother High Heaven watched the ending of the fight with different emotions. Mother High Heaven was on tentahooks. She grumbled and said, "I have already done too much work because of this fight. I hope Aeternus doesn't let Chaos energy spill, or he will be in big trouble."
She is worried for the realm tree, but the realm lord was giddy and excited. He kept asking, "What did I tell you? I was right, right? Was I not right?"
Mother High Heaven admitted it. "Yes, you were right. Legion-8 is truly dead."
But she couldn't help but be surprised, "I didn't think Legion was prepared to give up on him. Legion fooled even me. Who would have thought that they already knew about Draco. So they came here to retrieve his corpse and to feed the two armies to Aeternus."
The realm lord became solemn when he heard what she said. He said, "I must admit that I am also impressed. I didn't expect that they would know about Draco. I thought they would be caught off guard and lose on both sides."
Mother High Heaven mocked him, "So there is something that the great and powerful Monarch High Heaven doesn't know. Imagine that."
Monarch High Heaven chuckled and continued, "They truly have the potential for greatness, and they have the foresight to prioritize long-term goals. I was certain that Legion-8 would die, and I suspected that they knew that too, but I didn't expect that they would not try to change that outcome."
He has to be impressed because he thought he was the only one who noticed the dragon king's gaze. Even Mother High Heaven didn't notice it. But Legion did, and they didn't try to fight the dragon king. They didn't let their recent progress get into their heads and fight a being with a cosmic source of the void universe.
If that is not enough, they were also able to escape from the dragon king with the corpse of their clone. He thought for sure that Legion was lost when the dragon king chose to sacrifice his blood to turn Ragnarok into a dragon. But Chaos energy came through.
This made him puzzled, though. He shared his uncertainties with Mother High Heaven. He asked, "How come Draco didn't know about Legion's access to Chaos energy? If he did, how did he expect to succeed in turning Ragnarok into a dragon?"
Mother High Heaven shrugged, "Who knows what he is thinking, and how can we be certain that what he wanted to do was turn Ragnarok into a dragon? What if all he wanted was to mark Legion so that he could track them? If we don't know for certain his purpose, then we can't say for sure that he failed."
The realm lord nodded and said, "For a second there, I thought Draco didn't know about Aeternus."
"That can also be true. After all, the demon clone died to give birth to Aeternus."
Monarch High Heaven was surprised. He asked, "What do you mean? Who is Aeternus, if not the demon clone?"
"Who knows? You said something about how the knowledge of Draco's gaze didn't embolden Legion to resist him. But who is to say that the knowledge that everything that can fuse with Legion-unity must be part of Gehaldirah. After all, if universal artifacts can fuse with Legion without rejection, who is to say there aren't other types of things that can fuse with them?"
Monarch High Heaven became genuinely frightened by the implications of what she said. He said to her, "You are joking, right? Tell me you are messing with me."
Mother High Heaven laughed and said, "Yes. I am messing with you."
Monarch High Heaven sighed in relief. But the fear in his heart only receded a little. He would like to think that what Mother High Heaven said was made up, but he can't because he is in possession of something that has fused with his existence and is also as smart or even smarter than living things. He is especially afraid because this thing is doing things that Mother High Heaven is not aware of, despite fusing with her too.
