GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1912: The Main Guy.



The Legion-1 and Legion-7 looked at the work of their hands with self-satisfaction.

Legion-7 was the most satisfied and proud. He said to every clone, "Did you see that? That was all me."

Legion-2 said from where he was in the void universe, "Just because you came up with the plan doesn't make all of this the result of your singular effort."

Legion-7 didn't agree. He said, "I was the only one who knew what we were truly up against. I was the only one who came up with the best plan. I was the only one who could be certain that the plan was working. In my book, that makes this success mostly reliant on my awesome self."

Legion-3 said, "You come up with a plan one time, and you think you're the first sage."

Even Legion-9 joined in and asked, "What about us who built the trap?"

Legion-2 also asked, "What about me, who risked his life as bait?"

Legion-7 said to all of them confidently, "You're all lackeys following the lead of my genius. If I were polite, I would stroke your ego and tell you that you all did a good job and that I would never have been able to achieve this without you. Unfortunately, you're all out of luck. Impolite is my middle name."

The other clones were not going to have that. They were not going to let him show off so shamelessly. They argued with him over and over again on the value of his contribution to the success of their plan.

Legion-7 insisted that he hadn't simply "contributed" to the success of the plan. He claimed that he was the most important factor in the success of the plan and that without him, the plan would have failed.

He is only partly right, of course. He was indeed critical to the success of the plan, but it is uncertain that they would have failed without him. Either way, the clones were in a very good mood and felt like arguing about it for a while.

The source of their good mood is the frozen golden pyramid encased in a makeshift world fragment. The world fragment can't enhance anything. It is just there to separate the golden pyramid from the void universe.

So the world fragment is another set of bars meant for insurance. They don't think they will need this insurance, but it doesn't take much from them to set it up, so they did.

The true prison is the golden pyramid. The strange creatures that had been chasing them all over the void universe were frozen within it. They were all conscious and were staring back at Legion-1.

From the look in their eyes, it seemed that they had a lot they wanted to say and do. They just couldn't move despite their immense power. The sight of their incapacitation made Legion-7 smirk.

Legion got the idea to build a world fragment strong enough to capture these creatures from past experience. This won't be the first time that they are trapping something. But this is the first time they will be using the Authority of the Void Universe for it.

They got the idea to use the Authority of the Void Universe from the realm lord. The world fragments he had built inspired them to build the trap using their domains.

That was supposed to be the most difficult part of their plan, but it was easy for them to achieve. So they were sure that they would be able to pull off the trap. Reality has shown that they were right to think so.

Not only did they capture most of the strange creatures, but they also managed to capture one of the main masterminds behind them. That's why Legion-7 is feeling so cocky.

They achieved the capture of Green Vine by confirming that the strange creatures chasing Soverick were in possession of the spark of consciousness before they captured it.

That's why Soverick created a channel of communication between them. It was to ensure that Green Vine won't be able to escape their trap. She took the bait and latched onto him, so she couldn't escape from the trap now.

Even as they watched and argued amongst themselves, a green figure materialized from one of the creatures. She was a green phantom. She moved through the frozen space-time unaffected by it.

It looked like she would escape the golden pyramid, but then she collided with the walls of the pyramid. The walls were made of cosmic force, so she couldn't bypass it.

She said to them, "Legion. Well played. You managed to trap me."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

It took a few seconds for her message to bypass the golden walls of the pyramid. When it did, it had become garbled nonsense.

The walls had allowed the message to pass, but it had scrambled and shredded it. However, Legion was able to piece the message together due to the intent in the spiritual part of the message.

Legion-1 snorted when he heard the message. He said to her, "Who the fuck do you think you are? You are nothing. You think you can bully us because everyone in the void universe is bullying us? You were very wrong to think so."

"We have captured world enders. You are nothing compared to that. Trapping you was easy. If not for the vessel you occupy, we would have destroyed you right from the first moment we encountered you. So piss on your compliment."

He is not bragging, as they have already destroyed someone like her before. It didn't even take much for them to destroy the great mother, and the great mother was more powerful than her.

As for her, the main complication was that she was working with the first sage. Her possession of the strange creatures and her ability to change the vessels she was possessing easily made it difficult to deal with her initially.

Even though they had been running from the strange creatures all of this time, they had still collected information about them and her. They finally collected enough information to deal with them.
