Greed: All For What? - Chapter 1766: The Notorious Orc Hunters.

On the one hand, Legion didn’t like what the two god seeds were doing because the mortals they are killing are supposed to become their believers in the future. So the infighting is hurting them too.

On the other hand, the infighting will make it easier for them to annex the tribe. Legion eventually decided to leave them be so that they could fight to their hearts’s content. In the meantime, they turned their attention to the other tribes.

Legion-3 had been staying in touch, so he directed Warshaw’s every step of the way in annexing the Bear Paw tribe. The orcs of this tribe haven’t seen any trace of gods in a long while, so he is sure that they will be quickly won over through the miracle of sacrifice acceptance and the cooperation of wolves with the Bull’s Horn tribe.

It had taken over a day for Warshaw to gather this much information and ensure its accuracy. She is only about to start prostesizing after more than 24 hours.

This is the progress he has made even though he was completely dedicated. Other god seeds who have been busy hunting divine beasts or other god seeds would have done worse.

He continued to direct his Oracle with the other gods. It was boring work that took hours of time. The god seeds could only chat amongst themselves to while away the time. Things only changed when 8 orcs entered the temple after another 24 hours.

A lot of god seeds recognized them as the ones terrorizing the hunting grounds. Even the ones that had never encountered them realized their identity when they saw the large amount of divine orbs that they were carrying.

Some god seeds didn’t care that they were weaker. They cursed the eight of them as loud as they could. No one could attack in Gemmis, as they would freeze and die if they attempted it. But there was no rule against cursing, so they cursed to the nine heavens.

Their curses only reduced a little when they saw the 8 warriors arrive in front of Legion-3 and drop all the divine orbs in front of him. It is because their indignance has turned to shock or surprise.

Legion-3 didn’t bat an eye. He just absorbed the divine orbs one by one. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to get him to level 100. So the eight of them left him to hunt for more.

The god seeds looked at Legion-3 in a new light. Apparently, he is not some random god seed standing at the base of the divine investiture anymore. Some even approached him to speak with him.

Someone asked him, “So you are partners with the orc hunters. Are you open to cooperation?”

A lot of them had a lot to say, but only a few of them were angry with him. Most of them that cursed did so to vent their emotions, but few of them were truly angry. They haven’t lost enough to have irreconcilable anger. After all, most of them hadn’t reached level 5 before they were killed.

Many of them wanted to cooperate with Legion-3, but he only shook his head. He didn’t say anything. Some were unhappy with his reaction, but they couldn’t do anything to change his mind or hurt him. Not with the divine spirit watching.

The various god seeds had to watch as the 8 of them returned several times with more divine orbs for Legion–3 to absorb. Even though there were a lot of god seeds hiding in the city, there were still several tens of thousands of them outside hunting for divine crystals or divinity, so Legion was able to continue farming them.

It could be that they were ignorant of the notoriety of the orc hunters or they knew but were confident in their strength or they knew but were hoping to be lucky enough to avoid them. Whichever reason it was, it gave Legion a steady supply of god seeds to kill.

At this point, they have acquired the 11,000 divine crystals they need for their altar. They are only waiting on the 100 souls from the mortal realm. They could have sacrificed the people of the Bull’s Horn or the new Bear Paw tribe, but they want to convert them to authority. Then they plan to use the combined might of the two tribes to subdue the two other tribes one at a time.

This is going to take a while. In the meantime, the clones plan to push Legion-3 to level 100. So they were bringing divine orbs occasionally, which was drawing a lot of attention to him.

He didn’t care about the attention. He simply bought the remaining 3 divine spells available while watching their Authority increase together with the offerings from their new believers who want to test their existence.

Occasionally there would be regional announcements, but they were about the same thing. -Regional Announcement.

-Congratulations to All-father for being the 31st Godling in the Northern Realm.

He checked the ranking list by calling his angel for it and found that the names on it had indeed increased to 31. Their levels were not all at 100. The lowest on it has level 41.

But he knows that doesn’t mean the god is weak. When he switched to the authority ranking, he found the level 41 god seed at the fifth rank. The Authority was not shown, but being fifth out of 31 gods proves that their strength is not lacking.

Unfortunately, he can’t tell just how powerful they are because the power ranking list is still empty. His angel told him that it will only be filled when god seeds on the other ranking list fight each other. The victory and defeat between them will determine their ranking on the list.

This ranking will determine the percentage of wealth income of the divine city they earn. He doesn’t know how that will work, but his angel said it wasn’t available information yet, so he had to give up on it for now.
