GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?-Chapter 1817: Cutting Loses.

The 18 gods resisted by possessing their Oracles to defend. The gods from their six pantheons combined also descended to their altars with their avatars to help them resist and escort their Oracles to safety.

200 gods from the alliance of gods fought against 50 gods from the Apocalypse pantheon. It looked like the 200 gods were going to win, however, the initiative had already been lost when they invaded the enemy's home ground, failed to neutralize golden light and got themselves surrounded.

The tide of battle changed as soon as Legion-1 arrived with golden light. The gods stopped possessing their Oracles and some avatars even gave up immediately. They stopped helping and quickly returned to the divine realm so that they won't be killed by that weapon and run the risk of losing access to God's Domain forever.

As for the ones that remained, one strike destroyed every resistance in his way. Legion-1 worked his way to the Oracles through the hoards of gods protecting them and killed them.

He didn't destroy the altars that their Oracles had erected so that the gods could descend to it with their avatars and fight him. But none of the 18 god did that despite the lives of their Oracles being at stake.

It is because that only meant that they would die too. That would worsen the situation after their Oracle dies. They were not willing to assist as avatars or to possess their oracles so as to limit their loses after their Oracles die.

It was a smart plan to cut their losses, but the damage had already been done. They didn't lose any divinity, as the divine orb of those who were killed by Golden Light is still there waiting for them. What they lost was merely some divine energy, their expensive divine altars, and finally their very important Oracles.

That last part was especially painful. They felt the pain their Oracles experienced just before they died. As if that wasn't enough, they also received a notification from the world to inform them of the unnatural passing of their Oracles.

It was so bad that they didn't try to attack 9 Crowns again. If they hadn't lost their Oracles, then they could have gathered again and began planning for another attempt on 9 Crown. But now no one dares to do so.

They didn't even want to think about it. 18 Oracles were lost just like that. Legion-1 didn't let them go. He sent gods to chase the ones that escaped the siege. He chased them for miles and finally killed them.

It could have been worse had they brought more Oracles. Things were already bad, but they didn't have someone to blame for this disastrous affair because Crystal Hoard was no more. She had lost both her Oracles and her divine altar, so she couldn't even resurrect anymore.

It was truly sad that her last Oracle had died when both she and her divine altar were gone. This meant that both her link to the mortal and divine realms were gone. It meant that her link to God's Domain was severed, and they couldn't find her to blame her.

The proof is that her name has disappeared from the ranking list and someone else has taken her place at the top of the ranking. Even her Pantheon had disbanded. What is left of her is her divine orb with 5,000 divinity in it and her debt of 5 domains to the orc Bandits.

The god kings were angry, but their anger combined couldn't compare to that of Crystal Hoard's. At first she was in shock. Her large body in the void universe stood still with her jaws dropped in shock and disbelief.

Then she was in denial. She couldn't believe that her plan had failed. She shook her head and tried to connect to the pillar beside her. Her divine sense made contact with it and successfully connected with the world beyond it, but then she was repelled.

"No, no, no. This can't be happening. This must be a mistake." freewebnσvel.cøm

She turned to the side to ask her angel, "But you said it should work. You said if 9 Crowns was able to capture the weapon, 100 gods should be able to with 100% certainty."

But there was no angel when she turned to the side. She realized then that there would never be an angel ever again because she had lost access to God's Domain. This made her very angry. She roared in anger and anguish. Then she blamed 9 Crowns. "It is all his fault. He stole my weapon. He killed my Oracle. He must be punished."

That was easier said than done. She doesn't know 9 Crowns in the void universe. If she didn't get access to God's Domain she would have never encountered him. Her only hope for revenge is to have others with access to God's Domain help her.

It was a good idea. She liked it, and it was feasible because she knew a lot of people with access to God's Domain. She was about to contact them to help her when she realized that doing so would also inform the world god who gave her the slot that she had lost access to God's Domain.

This realization made her shiver in fear. It also doused her enthusiasm. She didn't think it was a good idea to tell others that she had lost access just yet.

But she knew that the information couldn't be hidden. Her disappearance would be noticed and the world god informed. Things would become worse then. So it is better to tell the truth now.

She said to herself, "His excellency might be able to help me get new access. Things might work out."

She doesn't really believe that, but it helped her to summon the courage needed to tell the world god who spent a lot of resources so that she could get the Authority of the void universe that she wouldn't be able to get the Authority of the void universe and that the resources they spent have gone to waste.
