Greed: All For What? - Chapter 1568: Froggy Intelligence.
A domain the size of 10 trillion square kilometers, capable of suppressing 1 million Origin gods, including Supreme Origin gods. Meanwhile, Legion-5 can barely freeze a single Supreme Origin god with his cosmic domain. He would even fail to do so if he didn’t have the assistance of the world fragment.
It is a sobering thought that has made them understand the gap between a world god and an Origin god even further. It has also made them appreciate the realm lord’s achievement of defeating a world god.
The realm lord was able to overcome this difference with the aid of a billion world fragments built with trillions of top grade artifacts and powered by a billion units of Authority. They don’t have either of the two, so they are unlikely to be able to achieve such a feat.
However, they are not discouraged. Legion, as always, is still greedy. They still haven’t given up on their plan to hunt a world god. It is their backup plan in case they fail to make enough contributions in the era of conquest.
They have to be prepared for failure, or they are just preparing to fail. The actions of the Supreme Alliance have especially made it important that they prepare for failure. However, their preparation for failure even preceded the exposure of their secrets, so it is not something rushed.
It is not wishful thinking on their side, either. They have two plans to achieve this goal. One plan is based on the Tree Father, Aeternus, and Helios and their sparks of power. The other plan is based on CARNAGE and Aeternus. They can use elements of either plan together based on the situation.
These are plans that they hope they will not need. After all, Legion has put a lot of effort into making enough contributions in the era of conquest, and it would be easier to earn contributions than to hunt a world god for their realm heart. But they are preparing for the
worst.
Having those plans hasn’t made them complacent. They don’t want to fail to make enough contributions. That’s why the Tree Father is rushing towards the abyss and will be doing his best in the land of hope in the Tyrant Realm.
Of course, he is going to mask his true motives with something else. However, those are plans for when he reaches the land of hope. In the meantime, he has to escape from the Supreme Tyrants chasing after him.
He escaped through their blockade in the divine plane into the main realm. He was not the only one who managed it, so many others are being pursued just like him and have taken some heat for him. Even so, he is still being chased by three Tyrants.
These Tyrants have different shapes and sizes. But one thing they have in common is that they are pitch black. They are not ominous black like Aeternus. The blackness of their existence doesn’t spread and infect the world around them. But they are still pretty strange-looking, as black is a rarely-seen color in nature.
His enemies are constantly attacking him from behind. Their attacks are powerful and accurate. It takes less than a second to hit him. Unfortunately for his enemies, they keep missing.
No one should be able to dodge an attack enforced by Supreme Power because it is the fastest attack and because, most times, they transcend the concept of speed. A single hit can also cripple the opponent because it has reached the limit of lethality.
However, the Tree Father is not dodging their attacks after they make them. He is dodging the attacks before they are made and then nullifying the power on them when they get close to him, so the attacks miss him.
It is just a little tweak on his side. He is not going all out to block the attacks. His influence on the attacks is to nudge them in the right direction, which is away from him. So these attacks are still powerful.
They bypass him and crack the continental plate of the realm before his eyes. The way they penetrated the earth and caused the area around the point of penetration to crack and sink shows him the fate he just avoided.
He said in admiration, “Supreme Laws are too powerful. I can accommodate and control power in all its forms, but they can create power in different forms. I want one too.”
His pursuers are understandably upset. They called out to him, “Stop right there and face us.”
“Aren’t you an invader? Why are you running from a fight?”
The Tree Father didn’t stop, but he entertained them. He said to them, “I will stop if you fight me one by one.”
“We promise to fight you one by one.”
The Tree Father asked to be sure, “You promise?”
They confirmed, “We promise.”
But the Tree Father didn’t stop. He ridiculed them, “Do you think I am a child? If you truly thought I would stop to fight, then you are the foolish ones. So much power but the brain of a frog.”
They laughed sinisterly and continued to chased him. One of them taunted him in return, “You are the frog. You are in a pot full of boiling water. It is only a matter of time before you are cooked.”
If he was being pursued by a single person, then he would stop and fight. He too has Supreme power, after all. But there are two other Supremes chasing after him, so it is a bad idea to stop.
It is rare for a Supreme to beat another Supreme. They can only wear each other down. The one that runs out of Origin essence first loses. But two or more Supremes will surely be able to defeat a single Supreme.
This is because a Supreme is not truly perfect. They don’t have a weakness, but they are not at the limit of power in every aspect at the same time.
