GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?-Chapter 1822: A Force To Reckon With.

A pantheon of a hundred gods has besieged Legion-1 and failed to kill him. This is something that has happened several times in the past five years. It is public knowledge that many gods know of, which is why they rarely hunt anymore.

There are many reasons why Legion-1 was able to achieve that despite being a true god same as the 100 gods that besieged him.

They failed to kill Legion-1 because of his high endurance and large pool of divine energy. He was already difficult to kill even with a mere 11,000 Authority, but this time they couldn't use divine judgment on him, and he was able to kill most of them.

He was able to hit harder thanks to his high Authority as golden light became terrifying. He was also more difficult to kill by using divine shield, and he had a lot of divine energy to use that divine spell and the others. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Their improvement in the art of forging is also a factor in why Legion has become a terrifying force to reckon with. They can forge artifacts with a 50% boost to their divinity now. In comparison, the other gods can only buy artifacts with a 40% boost from Gemmis, and it is very expensive.

That 40% is the limit of what gods can buy, but they are just getting started in reaping the benefits of having at least one clone working day and night every day on forging.

They can become better in the future and create more powerful divine artifacts, but the other gods are stuck at 40% boost. This is more likely thanks to the fact that three of their clones are always working on forging if they don't need to reinforce the others.

The gods have understood that they need to learn forging or find someone very good at forging to buy better equipment from, but no matter how serious they take forging, they can't be as dedicated as three clones working as one. After all, they only have one body.

The difference between 50% and 40% is currently too small to show its power. That will change in the future when they have more divinity. In the meantime, their success in forging is just a sideshow to their immense Authority.

Other gods have also made progress. But only gods of races with high fertility have been able to keep up with them in terms of Authority. This has made Legion decide to start a war in the mortal realm to leverage the potential of their race against those who reproduce like pigs but are weak.

The race they have their eyes on are goblins. They reproduce quickly and don't need much resource in order to prosper. This has made many goblin gods rise up.

The absence of Crystal Hoard has also encouraged this. If not for the numerous wars between these goblin gods, they would be the ones at the top of the Authority ranking. Legion has recognized this threat and has decided to eliminate them before it becomes significant. Unfortunately, the territory of the goblins is too far away. They would need to cross too much territory before they could wage war on them. This has made Legion shift their focus to the humans just beside their territory.

The humans are weak too. Even their gods are weak. But they reproduce fairly well and occupy a very large territory. They have more territory than the orcs, despite being weaker. Legion has decided to change that.

That and the fact that they hadn't been able to hunt well for 5 years because of the cowardice of the other gods was a compelling reason for them to start that war. After all, if the gods are avoiding them in the divine realm, the gods will have to confront them if they begin burning their churches and hunting their priests.

They are already planning for that war. It is not something they will start soon, though. It is mostly because they still have a lot of territory that the orcs haven't used up first. Since they are the first in Authority and the fact that peace would only make them gain Authority faster, they have decided not to start a war yet.

In the meantime, they have been forging and searching for domains in order to become domain gods. But Smite beat them to it. Now they have to start making divine calamities at all costs to the other gods and hope that they will be lucky.

They came out of Gemmis to find the other gods fighting each other for divinity or just to kidnap each other and feed them to divine beasts to create divine calamities.

Legion-3 looked around at the fighting all around them and smiled, "It seems we will be eating well again."

They have accumulated 9,763,891 divinity. That is over 6 million more than the 3.5 million that was left from Crystal Hoard's generosity. They have clearly shown that her investment in them was not a mistake.

Most of this was made by themselves, not taken from gods who slipped and fell on golden light. It is because the gods had already learned from Crystal Hoard. They decided to boycott hunting entirely after 9 Crowns became a menace and after they had besieged and failed to kill him and the Orc Bandits several times.
