Chapter 1806: Major Improvements.
It is not safe to hunt just about any pantheon they meet even with the current level of golden light, as their Authority is still not high enough to threaten everyone.
Currently, their Authority is at 11,000, so their attack power with golden light is 7,700. That is high for someone like Legion-3, who put only 600 divinity in strength. It is extra deadly thanks to the fact that he put 6,400 divinity in speed. That way his movement speed is three times faster than Legion-2 and can attack up to eight times in a second.
But Legion-2 with Myriad Armament can produce a far higher amount of damage per attack and per second, despite his ability to attack six times in a second. If not for his speed, Legion- 3 won't be much of a threat at all. Even with his speed, he still won't be able to threaten someone like the god king they just fought.
So they still have to be cautious until they raise their Authority and golden light's level. However, a smaller pantheon or a large pantheon that has been weakened just recently will be a good target.
They decided to upgrade Myriad Armament to increase their power before sending out the clones.
(Myriad Armament)
(Tier 3 (Evolvable): 0/10,000,000)
(Strength: x1.7)
(Ability: Can change form and has many sub-parts)
(Description: A weapon fit for a being with many forms)
(Non-transferable)
Unlike the upgrade to golden light, upgrading Myriad Armament empowers all of them. Legion-2 and Legion-5 with 7,000 divinity in strength now have an attack power of 11,900 without the help of divine spells. They can have this attack power with any type of weapon they change Myriad Armament into too.
So now, even if a true god puts all their divinity in endurance and uses Divine Endurance or Divine Shield with an Authority of 10,000 for a total of 12,000 defense, they will just barely be able to protect themselves from his attack.
But by using the divine spell, they will lose 100 DE. So they are still not safe. They will be in a lot of trouble if he is willing to spend 100 DE to increase his strength by 20% of 11,000. That will increase his strength by 2,200 and put his attack power at 15,640.
This empowerment put them at ease enough to send the clones out to hunt again. They needed the divinity because they are running low on it.
They spent 38,000 divinity on golden light, 10,000 on myriad armament, and 30,000 to level up three more clones for a total of 78,000 divinity.
They had hunted 90,000 divinity in 6 days; when added with the 6,000 they got before they were chased by the god king, they still have 18,000 divinity. That is not enough to bring the remaining three clones to level 100 and secure their future as domain gods. So they couldn't wait to hunt again.
Since Legion-2 was still resurrecting his divine body, it fell on Legion-5's shoulders to take up his place. Legion-1, Legion-3, and Legion-5 went out to hunt. Legion-4 and Legion-6 trailed after them to reinforce them if they needed the help.
Legion-1 was equipped with a normal shield and Myraid Armament as a bladed whip, spear, or sword depending on the situation. Legion-3 had golden light as a weapon and Myraid Armanent as a small shield, while Legion-5 had Myraid Armament as a bow.
They left Gemmis quickly and began raiding the ice zone again. They were already experienced, so they didn't attack ice wolves. Instead, they ran about looking to take advantage of other gods. They only attacked ice wolves when they had to.
A day continued like this until they met up with the Pantheon that chased and almost killed them. It was not by chance. This particular pantheon had been looking for them.
They had come running when they heard about a certain orc wielding what is clearly a fake golden light. But they had gotten distracted on their way to meet Legion. It was the noise of battle that drew the clones attention.
As opportunistic predators, what they liked to hear the most was the noise of battle. That noise represented an opportunity for them, so the clones rushed to the scene of battle. They didn't join it immediately. Instead, they examined the situation and assessed it before making judgment. It was through this process that they found out that it was the pantheon they hated that was engaging in a fight with others. Apparently, the pantheon had found a small group of gods and began attacking them.
Legion-1 smiled and said, "Looks what we have here. It seems they are up to their usual antics. They have found a new target to bully and rob."
Legion-5 said in anticipation, "They are also doing this while being surrounded by ice wolves. That is bad. Don't they know that they are helping the ice wolves by killing other gods? They should be punished for this atrocity."
Legion-3 also smiled, "5 gods is a little small, but these unlucky fellows should be able to tie down the pantheon a little."
Legion-1 said to the others, "We will take them off guard from behind. This is not a fight to the death. We are just here to take a bite out of them."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
They don't like the pantheon for chasing them and nearly killing them, but that is not nearly enough to make them hate the pantheon. It was nothing personal. It was just a hunt.
They are not as hypocritical as to think that what was done to them was bad. But they are hypocritical enough to make up any reason to attack and rob anyone, regardless of whether the target has offended them or not.
Their discussion was swift and silent. It is one of the benefits of having access to each other's minds. No one heard them speak about their plans to each other. So the pantheon was caught off guard when something smashed into them from behind.
