GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1070 A Team Player.

Chapter 1070 A Team Player.

So he intends to explore the full limit of his POWER stat. He must find out how it works and what strengthens it so that Legion will be able to figure out a way for the shard of power to benefit every clone.

Maybe one day, a clone of Legion will be able to form a connection between all the clones and facilitate the sharing of their power just like paragons do. He has to do his part for that which means he must reach the limit of his divine ability. 

If he has to kill a lot of Vampires for that, then so be it. It is a sacrifice that he is willing to make. If it means that he must hunt Primogenitors for their heart or Carnage to increase the boost from his POWER stat then so be it. He is a team player above all else. The threat of the demon god looming above him won't discourage him from the greater goal of perfection. 

The information he is gaining about the demon god will also help Legion in their struggle with demon gods. At least, Aeternus learned from him to run away as soon as possible. Legion knows for certain that getting locked in a limited space by a demon god is a bad idea. That's why Aeternus didn't try to rely on his powerful plane to resist the demon god. 

Things might look bleak for Ragnarok, but the aim of perfection still remains alive and strong within him.

"The only one ruining my fun is this new guy." He said with a scowl.

He is referring to the white Ghoul. The white Ghoul is much more suited to killing Vampires than him and it also has an eye of life. It got its eye of life the same way Ragnarok got his which is through devouring a heart of Carnage. So it can track and lock onto the Vampires wherever they are in the plane. That has made it very dangerous to Vampires since they can't hide from it. But that's just its basic ability. It has more up its undead sleeve.

Ragnarok shrugged and said. "Maybe I shouldn't be too greedy. I can't get all of them either way."

Then he took his eyes off the white Ghoul and returned it to his next target. He said In anticipation, "You escaped from me the first time. But you won't escape from me this time."

He has decided to hunt the fast but cowardly Primogenitor that escaped from him. This Primogenitor is the fastest Vampire in the plane. Every vampire in his lineage is very fast. 

The true form of this Primogenitor is that of a legless red-feathered falcon. He is very fast in his normal form but he can't be restricted by anything once he unleashes his true form. He becomes intangible and untouchable. But all of that will fail him because the sun is up. He won't be able to run from Ragnarok.

On The Surface. In A Secret Location.

There are 8 figures in this secret room. They are all seated in chairs around a large circular table. There are 41 chairs but the other 33 are empty. The atmosphere in this room is not cordial at all. The figures are frowning or scowling. Their body language is generally not calm. They are not saying anything but the air is thick with the stench of defeat. 

They have just had a call from some of their associates and it was full of bad news. 

One of them sighed and said. "We just lost three more of us. Our strength has reduced further. Maybe the others are right. Maybe we should just give up on the plane."

"Yes. It was already a losing fight. The news of the reappearance of the ghouls has not made things promising." Someone agreed.

"It is a pity though. All of our families and descendants will die. Our immortal bloodlines might actually get cut off here. What an irony."

They all laughed. Some of them couldn't laugh so they chuckled. What this person said is truly amusing. Their bloodlines are supposed to be eternal but that will be put to the test soon. 

"It is not a surprise though. We are up against a demon god after all. The end of our bloodlines is the least of our problems."

"And this Ragnarok has not made things easier. He is messing things up even more."

The 8 of them are in general agreement. They are ready to give up. There used to be 41 of them here on the plane. That is a very large amount of Origin gods to have in a plane. Origin gods don't like being in the lower realm at all. Most of them were stationed at the ancient battlefield. But they were able to get into the plane when the planar portal was first attacked by the Vampires. 

They have been resisting the Vampires since then. They also helped to quell the ghouls the last time they were active. It is because they couldn't bear to see their precious plane ravaged by ghouls. The ghouls could have given them victory, but what kind of victory would it have given them? 

The answer to that question is a near-lifeless plane. The wood elves didn't want that. They were divided over stopping the ghouls or letting them rampage throughout the plane. The decision was made when the fountain of life interfered. It declared that the ghouls must be sealed. 

So the ghouls were sealed. The Origin gods were the once that bore the danger of doing so. They sacrificed themselves to attract the majority of the ghouls and lead them to a hidden enclosure. Then they sacrificed themselves by dying to the ghouls so that the ghouls lost their targets.

The fountain of life sealed the ghouls while the rest of them destroyed the few amounts of ghouls that couldn't be lured. They used their concepts and domain to kill the ghouls.
