GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?-Chapter 1772: No Greed.
Chapter 1772: No Greed.
The angel continued, "You are indeed correct. But not everything was about hard work or the lack of it. There's also the factor of bad luck. Some of the godling's territory was also attacked while they were busy hunting. They didn't know about it because they rarely went to the temple to hear the prayers of their Oracles."
"It wouldn't have changed much as godlings won't be able to offer tangible help, but they could have retained some of their believers if they had been there to work together with their Oracles."
The clones didn't want to waste time anymore. They clicked the option to evolve.
A prompt appeared asking for their permission.
-Do you want to become a True God? All of your divinity will be consumed for the evolution. -Yes or no?
Legion-7 asked their angel, "We will go back to level o if we choose to evolve?"
"Yes. But you will gain other benefits that will make the evolution worth it."
Legion-9 asked, "Will we be stronger than a level 100 godling at level o?"
"No. Certainly not with divinity. But your."
They were in a dilemma. They could either become true gods or lose the bulk of their power. Or they can choose to maintain the strength of their divine bodies but miss out on becoming the first true god.
It didn't take them long to come to a decision.
Legion-2 said, "We have to become true gods. The faster we do, the better."
Legion-4 agreed, "Plus, we still have authority. We will not be entirely useless."
Legion-6 added, "We also don't need to hunt anymore to acquire divinity."
Legion-1 was about to go ahead with the decision when Legion-3 suggested, "We could also stockpile divinity now and use it when we evolve. That way we will have both evolution and divinity."
Legion-2 didn't agree. He said, "But it will delay us from being the first to become True gods."
Legion-1 asked the angel, "Does being the first matter?"
They decided to ask their angel about it.
It replied, "Yes. There is always a hidden reward for anyone who is the first to achieve milestones in power. Crystal hoarder received his for being the first godling."
They want to be the first true god, but they also don't want to become so weak that they rely on authority.
At the end of the day, they decided to go ahead with the evolution. It is because they don't want the advantage they have created by simultaneously prioritizing Divinity, Divine Crystals, and Authority to go to waste.
They are greedy, but they know when to stop. If they try to hunt for divinity right now and someone else becomes the first true god, they will regret it.
Legion-1 made up his mind and said, "It is a gamble we can't afford to lose. Let's hope the reward for being the first true god is truly worth it."
So they picked yes.
--Congratulations On Your Evolution.
-You have become a True God.
-You have Gained Priesthood.
-You have gained one more Oracle slot.
-You have gained Ten Priest slots.
-You have gained more Divine spells.
-You have gained Oracle Possession Divine Ability.
-You have gained Soul Harvesting Divine Ability.
-You have gained Greater Miracle Divine Ability.
-You Can Now create a Pantheon of gods.
-Reward
-For being the first True God choose one of the three rewards.
1. Pantheon Spire.
2. Domain quest.
3. Unique Divine Weapon.
They didn't know what to choose, so they asked their angel. It explained to them that a Pantheon Spire is a building in the city that the gods in their pantheon can keep their altar and use for meetings. They can buy it on their own, but it is very expensive. If they have it, it will make their pantheon attractive so many gods will join it, and it will in turn strengthen the god who created the pantheon.
The Domain Quest is a hint that will point them in the direction of a domain, which is something they need to become Tier 2 gods. Without a quest, they will have to wander about the divine realm looking for a domain. If they are lucky, they will eventually find it. If not, they will waste their time looking for a domain and will be delayed.
The unique weapon is something that can't be forged. It will be something unique to them in the whole of God's domain. They can't buy it, and no one else can create it.
They decided to go with the third option simply because it is something they can't acquire on their own in the future.
-Unique Divine Weapon Selected.
-You have received Myraid Armament.
(Myriad Armament)
(Tier o (Evolvable): 0/10,000)
(Strength: x1.1)
(Ability: Can change form and has many sub-parts)
(Description: A weapon fit for a being with many forms)
(Non-transferable)
A bright light flashed in front of all of them. Then it disappeared, leaving behind a whip in front of each of the clones. There were 9 whips in total, but none of them looked alike. They had varying lengths, thicknesses, and colors.
They grabbed the whip, and its information was transmitted to their minds. Their angel was chattering non-stop on the side about its properties, so they knew what the Myriad
Armament can do.
They willed it, and the whip changed shape. It became a dagger or a sword or a spiked club or a spear. It became whatever they wanted it to become. It was an all-purpose weapon made just
for them.
Legion-3 said with a smile, "Ok, it was worth it to become the first true god. It is at least a 9- in-1 weapon. If we consider that it can change shape, it is 81 in 1."
Legion-9 wondered aloud, "It can also evolve. I wonder how they made this. Can it be replicated in the void universe?"
They were admiring their new weapon and already planning for how they would use it when
they received another notification.
