Chapter 1154 Sweet Revenge.

?1154 Sweet Revenge.

She more than others knows the power behind the vessel of a god. It is a good idea to surrender. She felt like kneeling and begging for forgiveness. Surely the god-king will accept her if she swears an Oath of allegiance. She is a rare transcendent after all.

But then she remembered that the god-king is Helios. It is the same Helios that killed her twin brother. It is the same Helios that betrayed his father and replaced him. Not only did he do that, but he also killed the other gods and killed her father.

She doesn't care about her father but she cares about the Legacy that she lost because of his death. If not for Helios, then she would be a grand god by now or about to become one.

To top it all off is the death of her caretaker, Aunty Vint. Helios' uprising led to the death of the only being who was her true father and mother. If the Colossus had not come to save her from the ant mound and kept her hidden then Tanya wouldn't have survived till today. Even then, Aunty Vint had to sacrifice herself to protect her so she must get revenge for the only person she ever cared about.

All of these memories rekindled the slumbering anger within her. So she didn't surrender. She roared and unleashed her true form and then her colossal form. Her body grew to a height of 100 meters. Then she enlarged by ten times to become 1 kilometer tall.

She roared valiantly, "Die!"

Then she lurched downward with her massive fist. She means to smash the guardian down to the ground and preferably kill it. The winds howled with the power of that punch and the ground cracked because of the pressure imposed upon it by her colossal feet.

The guardian on the other hand remained silent and composed. It wasn't moved by the valiant display. Vines erupted from its small figure like a volcano. They formed into a long while that slapped Tanya's face.

The whip created a loud smacking sound similar to that of an explosion. Tanya's head was pushed to the side and her punch missed. Many more vine whips grew out of the guardian and struck Tanya all over.

They are whips but they hit like hammers. Tanya couldn't resist the numerous attacks. She fell face-first to the ground immediately and kicked up a large cloud of dust.

The vines continued their assault on her even when she was on the ground. She was beaten and tied up quickly by the vines. Then the vines tightened into chains that bound

The guardian used her compromised position to cover her up in a cocoon of vines. Then it began to squeeze her as if it was trying to break a nut. She had two choices. Either return to a smaller form voluntarily or involuntarily.

Tanya's resistance was weak. She has incredible physical and magical defense as evidenced by the lack of injuries despite the beatings. She also has terrifying brute strength. But without runes or stigmata, she can't bring her full strength to bear.

The guardian is a transcendent like her. It didn't even need much effort to subdue her. It stunned her, overwhelmed her, and then captured her swiftly. This is the sorry fate of giants of order.

The best weapons that they can use because of the law of order in their body are mundane weapons that the vitality core stage uses. They can't even use mana weapons because the law of order will render it useless just as it destroys spells that come close to them.

The law of order in their body granted giants of order immense physical and magical defense but it has also limited their potential and power. They are trapped within a body that cannot be harmed easily but they can't put their great strength to efficient use without weapons. That's why they created runes.

But the gods are gone so they don't have runes, divine Stigmata, or special divine ability from their godly heritage anymore. While other transcendents use origin weapons and Origin energy to amplify their strength, giants of order have nothing to fully utilize their strength much less amplify it.

The death of gods crippled the giants of order while the kingdom of life is the only source of power for the giants of order. This is why the origin gods had to come and attack the tree father for the secrets of the demorgorg.

whatsoever because any giant of order that they raise will be useless. If the giants of order can't fight in the era of conquest then it is useless to bother taking control of a plane. They might as well fight on their own.

The other option is to bring in races from other planes but that won't work either. There is a reason why giants of order are the only ones to survive in the plane and why they were beaten back from the ancient battlefield. They are the former gods so they know that it won't work.

Tanya was not the only that was captured that day. Demorgorgs and guardians were dispatched en mass to round up the spies and infiltrators. A lot of manpower was roused for this agenda but only a few of the spies were captured in the city. The rest managed to escape the kingdom of life.

The tree father could have captured all of them at once if he wanted to and he could have blocked the borders so that none of them could escape. But that will cost divine energy. He has already spent a lot of divine energy in the fight. These rebels are not worth him spending more divine energy.

Besides, it is a good thing to let them go. He made sure to mark every one of them so that his guardians could track them. The escaped rebels led his demorgorgs and guardians straight to their bases of operation and their numerous hideouts.
