GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Legion-8 is a no-go since he hasn't hatched yet. Legion-7 couldn't assimilate the tree father either because of the god fire that he bears. The god fire of gods is one of the things he is vulnerable to. He's extra vulnerable to it since he doesn't have a physical body. Anything that comes in contact with a god fire burns including him.

Legion-7 did what he could do for now. He spread some of his tentacles into the mind network and into the clones he could access for now. Soverick is one of those clones. The tentacle entered his soul through the soul sphere and began assimilating it.

Then it also extended to his body. This all occurred without anyone knowing. Not even Hadrick realized that Soverick was being replaced. Only one world god who had an eye that could identify secrets could tell that Soverick was not a battle sage monkey anymore.

From that moment on, the physical Soverick became a shell of matter and energy that led directly to Legion-7. If anyone pries into his consciousness they will find Soverick there waiting for them. But if one digs deeper and Legion-7 allows them permission, then they will find a bottomless abyss containing a tentacle monster waiting for them.

Legion-7 used Soverick as an anchor to spread his tentacles throughout the Virut plane. This is to collect information and to acquire vessels that can be remade into Soverick if necessary.

He can recreate Soverick's body in Legion-1's or Legion-5's inner world but it is better to have other options in the realm. Then he returned to Legion-5's inner world and assimilated him too.

Legion-5 said, "Now that that has been settled and our future path has been ascertained, I can solely focus on immunity now. Let's discuss my future path."

He examined his body as he talked. First, he lifted his hand and looked at it. His hand divided and morphed into two. Then it became four. He straightened them and turned them into tentacles. These tentacles wiggled slightly as he shook them about. He even produced four more arms and converted them into tentacles.

"I am assuming this is because I assimilated you. My existence is capable of greater changes that won't cause my consciousness to collapse. You have increased the limit and adaptability of my shapeshifting."

Legion-7 replied smugly, "You are welcome."

Technically, transcendents can change their form to a certain extent but there is a limit on the degree of change to their physical form which is placed on them by their consciousness.

This is because any change to their body is also a change to their consciousness so they are stretching their consciousness whenever they try to morph their form. So what he is doing right now is definitely odd. Even other shapeshifters can't do it.

Legion-7 interrupted him. "Stop admiring yourself. We have work to do. Let's focus on your class."

"What's the rush? No one is trying to kill you."

"You're wrong. No one is trying to kill me yet. I have to take the void universe seriously if I want to continue to live so I must prepare for its attempt to take my life before it makes its move."

Legion-5 mocked him. "You are too afraid of death. You are like Hadrick."

"You will be afraid of death too if you felt what I have been through. You only know what I went through but you didn't experience it. Knowledge is different from experience. And don't say I am being paranoid. I am certain that the universe is after me. It wants to get rid of me just like it wants to get rid of Hadrick."

"Alright. Let's get a move on. There are only two classes that will make it difficult to be killed. There is the scout and assassin class. The other one is the warrior and self-superpremacy class. Which one should we take?"

"Take the self supremacy class. The scout class is fast, can avoid danger, and possesses high-damage outbursts but they are all useless against the void universe. You can't avoid the void universe no matter how fast you are. You can't escape the danger of tribulation no matter how quick you sense it and you surely can't attack the void universe no matter how fast your attack speed is. So prepare yourself to take a beating from the void universe and survive it."

"That's true. The Lightning immunity from the dragon heart will work well with the warrior class. Plus I have already taken the dragon heart which means I have already been assigned the warrior class. It will be expensive to switch classes now."

Legion-5 agrees with Legion-7 to pick the warrior and self-

supremacy class. All of Legion also agrees that Legion-7 should be protected. That means Legion-5 who is the host of Legion-7 has to become indestructible and unkillable.

Prioritizing defense will obviously affect his attack potential but it is a sacrifice he is willing to make. Legion doesn't need another clone chasing after omnipotence. They already have Legion-8 for that. Besides, the second level of unity that will occur when the clones become Origin gods should fix his weakness.

So Legion-5 went through the classes and the divine abilities available to them. There are several classes because the Supreme Alliance encourages the specialization of Supreme beasts. Each Supreme beast specializes in one aspect and becomes unbeatable in that aspect. Then they use division of labor and cooperation to act together and overcome their individual weakness.

The warrior or self-supremacy class are Supreme Beasts that focus on close and physical fighting. They are not particularly powerful in terms of attack power. They have an advantage when fighting a single enemy but can be ineffective when fighting numerous enemies at once. However, they can not be killed easily.

Warriors can be defeated with speed or advantage of numbers of numbers, but killing them is another matter entirely. So even though they can't harm several enemies at once unlike the one-

man army class, they are unrivaled when it comes to survivability so they are not afraid to be ganged on.
