GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1807: The Trifecta



Legion-3 was the one that attacked them. His unmatched speed helped him to take full advantage of the golden spear in his hand. His attack power of 7,700 is above average in terms of deadliness, but it is his dizzling attack speed that made him a terror.

He can attack eight times in a second. This makes him dish out 61,600 worth of damage in a second. Any god caught off guard like the ones he is currently fighting can lose their life before they can react.

His speed made it seem like he had an Authority of 61,600 and could use 100% of it, or he had 308,000 Authority and could use 20% of it like other true gods. Whichever one it is, it worked especially well when he pierced through the protective shell of gods formed around the weaker archers at the center of their formation.

He was like a wolf among sheep. The archer has prioritized strength, so their endurance was lacking. What's worse is that they didn't have the distance needed to utilize their strength, and any speed they had couldn't compare to his.

The archers had to bring out swords from their inventory to fight him in close quarters. This finally gave Legion-3 some trouble.

His endurance can't withstand their attacks, and he also can't kill them fast enough because his output in a second is not as good as a single divine spell that can fish out 61,600 damage in one second.

This is because each of his attacks is weakened by the endurance of his target. Even a mere endurance of 2,000 reduces his effective damage to 45,500 in one second.

4,000 in endurance cuts down his attack output to 29,600 per second. A single spell, on the other hand, will only be affected by endurance once, so it will be reduced to 61,596 even with an endurance of 4,000.

If not for his movement speed, which is up to three times faster than most of the archers, he would have been killed immediately. But the fact that he was dodging their attacks further reduced his effectiveness.

Fighting a group of gods no matter how powerful someone is a bad idea. Not unless they are Crystal Hoars. That's why pantheons are on the rise.

He has just one body, and there are more than 10 gods around him who want to poke a hole in it. They are having trouble nailing him down due to his speed, but he can forget about bullying them because the advantage of number is on their side.

Fortunately, he is not alone either. There are two other gods watching the entire fight from afar. The weapon in their hands changed into bows, which they used to shoot arrows at the gods besieging Legion-3.

The thing was that it was both Legion-1 and Legion-5 that were both shooting arrows at the pantheon. One of them had 1,000 divinity in strength, while the other had 7,000 in strength. But the gods couldn't tell which was which.

They certainly couldn't tell which arrow came from whom, even if they could identify the weaker god from afar. They will only be able to tell which is which when they are hit, so they took each arrow seriously as a deadly threat, as one should when they are attacked.

They were extra serious about it when some gods died because of a single attack. Apparently, only the gods that survive a hit can tell that the arrow is fake. As for those who didn't, they will die instantly.

They didn't want to take that risk to find out which arrow was deadly or not, so they all tried to dodge every attack. But this made them waste a lot of their time and effort. It is time and effort that they ought to be using to kill Legion-3.

Legion-1 with 1,000 divinity in speed could attack 5 times in a second, while Legion-5 with 2,000 divinity in speed could attack 6 times in a second. Together, they can produce 11 attacks per second. So 45% of the attacks were fake.

While 45% of everyone that was struck in a second sighed in relief, the remaining 55% couldn't sigh at all. This deadly situation created a lot of fear amongst the pantheon. It granted Legion–3 some respite, which he used to pick up the divine orbs of the gods that died.

The Pantheon tried to recover the divine orbs too. But bending down to pick something on the ground opened them up to a deluge of arrows. They tried to defend those who pick up divine orbs using divine shields and physical shields, but by doing so, the pressure on Legion-3 eased off even more, which gave him more wiggle room to cause more devastation.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

It was then that they remembered that Legion-3 was too fast and dangerous for them to take their eyes off of for even a second. But the gods had no choice. They had to take their eyes away from him to track the arrows, or they would be shot to death.

This entanglement at the back of the pantheon and the one at the front were already taxing the pantheon. But things only got worse. A strong level 100 ice wolf came to interfere in the battle. Not only did it appear, it also summoned more ice wolves to attack the pantheon.

The ice wolves were more than a hundred in number. That's more than every god in the battle. They surrounded the pantheon from every direction. Only the gods at the center of the pantheon, like Legion-3, were safe for the moment.

The safety was only for a moment, though. The pantheon soon cracked under the pressure, so their formation fell apart. They were coordinating with each other in the void universe, shouting and screaming at each other for instructions and help. But they couldn't stall the collapse of their ranks.
