GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1898: One By One.



Those closest to Legion-3 were afraid for their lives. But Legion-3 did something they didn't expect. He ignored the gods close to him and attacked a god far away from his position.

The god had thought that since he was far away, he would be safe. So he was relaxed and was fighting another orc bandit wholeheartedly. He didn't see the attack coming and still didn't notice it even when it was too late to do anything about it.

One human god died in the first exchange. It was just two seconds into the fight, but they had already suffered a casualty. This reduced their number to 9 and. It led to the reduction of their advantage in numbers and further reduced their chances of success.

Legion-3 rushed towards an enemy with confidence. He wanted to cleave the god apart, but the god ran away from him. All the human gods and their helpers ran away from the orc bandits. The clash became a chase.

The human gods already knew that fighting them up close wouldn't work from all the lessons they had learned from the defeated foes of the Orc bandits in the divine plane, but they needed to do so if they wanted to use God's Fall to its fullest potential.

God's Fall isn't like Golden Light in that they can't bind it to themselves and recall it after throwing it out. If they throw it out and miss, then they will lose it. Things will become worse if one of the Orc Bandits picks up the God's Fall and uses it against them.

So they wanted to get close to the Orc Bandits and use the God's Fall as spears to fight them. It was a suicidal attack as they were ready to die in exchange for hitting their opponents just once.

If five of them die so that they can hit the five orc bandits, there will still be five others to kill the weakened orc bandits.

It was a good idea, and they were willing to execute it until Legion-3 cut one of them down in two seconds. Now they aren't so sure that they will gain anything by getting close to the Orc Bandits.

One of them said, "Fuck this, I'm throwing the spear."

He created distance from the orcs so that he would be able to dodge Golden Light. But the orc bandits were faster than him and were closing the distance. This frustrated him enough to throw God's Fall.

His spear flew across the sky like a comet. Unfortunately, it missed its target.

He had turned back so as to shoot the spear with all his might at one of the Orc bandits. The clones saw this, so they were ready to dodge. They were also very fast. That, coupled with their alertness, made it easy to dodge the attack.

The spear sailed through the sky and struck the earth like a meteorite. It created a large explosion that destroyed part of the city below them.

The attack was a flash and no substance. No one was hurt at all. If not for the fact that the orc bandit chasing the god had stopped to dodge, which created much-needed distance between them, the attack would be a complete failure.

The god was pained by the loss of his weapon, but he was glad for the breathing space. This space was enough for him to disable his avatar safely and escape.

He was contemplating abandoning his allies and escaping when he suddenly froze. He froze because one of the orc bandits had used Divine Hold on him. What followed after was expected.

Legion-3 was chasing another god, but then he stopped and turned towards the frozen god in the other direction. Then he threw the spear at him.

His movements were smooth and accurate. In fact, he was already throwing the spear before he stopped and turned. The other gods thought he was targeting someone in front of him only for his spear to fly in the opposite direction and nail another god.

Four seconds into the fight and another god was dead. Now it was eight human gods against five orc bandits. The human gods felt that running wasn't going to get them anywhere, so they all rushed back and threw their spears at the orc bandits.

The five orc bandits slowed down their chase as they prepared to dodge. But only one out of the eight human gods threw their spear. The other seven were just pretending.

The attack missed again, but this time a single spear had managed to slow down all five orc bandits instead of one. It was also a tactic that the human gods could repeat.

They did so with great relish. Sometimes, none of them threw their spears at all. Other times they threw two at a time.

The sky and the earth rumbled and quaked as the domain gods fought. Each side was trying to kill the other with all that they had.

Legion-3 managed to hit another god, but he was targeted by two human gods as soon as Golden Light left his hands. He was the one they were willing to use two spears to kill.

He dodged one spear but failed to dodge the other. Unfortunately for the human gods, he didn't die because another clone used his body to block for him.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Things would have been different if they were in the divine realm. They would be able to use Myriad Armament or another weapon to defend. Unfortunately, they couldn't bring Myriad Armament to the mortal realm.

Legion-4, who was hit by God's Fall, had used Divine Shield to protect himself, but that didn't stop the weapon from taking effect on him.

The white spear that struck him shattered into dust. The dust bypassed his shield and clung to his body. It robbed him of his power and weakened him. His avatar fell to the earth and cratered it.

He muttered, "This can't be good."
