GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1562: Contingency Plan.



Their plans come down to two objectives. They want to seal him at all costs or allow one of the Supreme Beasts without Supreme Laws to touch him. They have special arrays to accomplish the first option and they have come prepared for the second option too.

Those Supreme Beasts without Supreme Laws are incapable of making Supreme Laws. They have a concept that can shift into any other concept, and they do this by stealing the concepts of others by touch.

They are the Supreme Beasts who took the path of further awakening and are stuck. But they are very useful. The Supreme Alliance can use them to steal Legion-8's abilities. All they have to do is touch him. This theft is also permanent, so if they succeed, they will have something important to bargain with Legion.

Legion-8 admitted, "It is a foolproof plan."

As if they heard his confirmation, the Supreme Beasts decided to attack him. All of them began to approach him at once. They remained hidden so that they could get as close to him as possible before they fought. After all, their plan is to seal and capture him. Killing an immortal won't bring them any benefits.

They know that he might be able to see them, but they don't care. The closer they get to him, the better for them. Legion-8 was also hoping for them to get closer to him. He was also preparing to use the contingency plan that Legion had planned for them to use in desperate situations.

It is true that he doesn't have a Supreme Law and he can't use his world fragment, but he can use the Tree Father's divine spark and Helios' Supreme Power through Legion, so he is not in a hopeless situation.

However, he is not going to use either of them. He is not going to use the Tree Father's divine spark because Legion is not willing to expose more information about themselves to the enemy.

They are bound to expose a weakness if they reveal too much of their capabilities. That is just common sense. It is especially prudent to hide their abilities, knowing that the Supreme Alliance won't give up after this defeat.

So it is a smart thing to keep some things hidden. But it is also because Legion as a whole can feel that they will regret it if they expose Legion-9's abilities.

They can't tell exactly why it is a bad idea because of the divination blocking of the Supreme Beasts, but they can tell it is bad. They can feel the gaze of a world god on them despite the shroud over their future vision, so Legion knows that this is far from being simple.

There's only one thing that Legion has at their disposal, and they know for certain that it doesn't possess a weakness. That is what Legion had prepared for Legion-8 to use.

Legion-8 deployed this trump card when the Supreme Alliance got close enough. A domain sprang outward from him.

It is not a normal domain, so the Will of the Realm couldn't block it easily. The domain of a World Beast is very powerful because of the support of the inner world and a world fragment, so it can break the suppression, but it did so slowly.

The speed of the domain was slow, so the Supreme Beasts could avoid it by retreating. They would have avoided it if they had decided to retreat, but they didn't fear his domain, and they also wanted to get closer to him, not away.

They didn't continue to approach him unprepared, though. An Origin domain can't work against a Supreme Origin god if they don't want to be suppressed by it. So they all burned Origin essence to use their Supreme Laws at full power in preparation to resist his domain.

The law matrix around Legion-8 was warped into various phenomena for their purposes. It became impenetrable walls and unbreakable spikes of law that stood in the way of the expanding domain. The backlash of their resistance was so great that the domain collapsed immediately when it clashed against their resistance.

This is to be expected, considering that a single domain is fighting against ten thousand Supreme Origin gods. It will break, no matter how sturdy it is.

What the Supreme Beasts didn't expect was that it would break apart and release its abominable payload. Chaos energy poured out of the broken domain and drenched the impenetrable walls and unbreakable spikes.

Those impenetrable walls and unbreakable spikes quickly became not so impenetrable and unbreakable as Chaos energy began corroding them.

Chaos ensued immediately as the Supreme Origin gods screamed, yelled in pain, or groaned. It was a direct hit that couldn't be blocked.

Contact is all the Supreme Law of Chaos needs, be it false or true, to get to work. Their Supreme Laws are part of their existence, so by blocking Chaos energy, they have made contact with the law of Chaos.

The orderly array of the Supreme Beasts literally descended into chaos. Every entity that Chaos energy touched lost its sense of direction, perception of its surroundings, and sense of time.

They descended into madness as they fought with all their might to resist the corrosion of their existence. Gone was the mission they came here for. They all scattered or died. Legion-8 watched this with relish. He said in appreciation, "Storing Chaos energy was not in vain."

He is not like Aeternus. He can't just output a large amount of Chaos energy when he needs it. The transfer of Chaos energy between the clones is too slow, so it is best if he stores it for future use. Future use, such as being bait.

His hard work in storing it and the fact that his concept of All-Existence Poison was created with the image of Chaos energy as its foundation made him have a great deal of appreciation for what Chaos energy is doing. He might be immune to Chaos energy, but he knows just how much pain they are going through.
