GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

1165 The Incubator.

lightsΝοvel His father shook his head. "If it is what you think it is, then he is a burden on the others. He will affect the others if he remains attached to the Mother plant. But if he is not a burden, then he should survive without the mother plant."

That is logic that he couldn't argue against. The subordinate could only agree and cut the fruit that Legion-5 was in away from the mother plant. He was then carried away and placed in an incubator. The incubator was then attached to him to supply some nutrients that he might need.

The subordinate said, "I hope you can survive."

Legion-5 is doing well and they don't know why but that doesn't mean it is a good thing for the other eggs. His father believes that Legion-5 has found a way to continue using up resources from the mother plant to grow. Those resources are meant for the eggs that are still viable.

The surbodinate on the other hand wants Legion-5 to remain in the mother plant. They don't know why he is growing instead of dying but as Supreme beasts who have been tasked by the Supreme Alliance to do their best to ensure the survival of all eggs, he wants him Legion-5 to remain with the mother plant and not be abandoned to an incubator.

If the incubator could help to hatch eggs, the Supreme Alliance would be using it instead of the mother plant. So his chances of survival are very slim at best. Unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done to help him.

The major issue here is that there is no right and wrong decision despite the motive behind the two decisions. Legion-5's father might be right and Legion-5 is bad for the other eggs. That will lead to the death of more eggs.

Even if his father is wrong and the subordinate is right, only Legion-5 will die. That is a sacrifice that they can make for the sake of the other eggs. It is a smart decision to risk one instead of the many and it will hold under the scrutiny of the Supreme Alliance.

If there was an obviously correct decision then Legion-5 wouldn't be cut off like that even though his father is the one who asked for it. His father is not having offsprings because he has a hole in his life that he wants to fill up with children. The supreme alliance asked him to fertilize the mother plant with his essence together with the essence of another Origin god to produce offsprings.

That's how the eggs and Legion-5 came to be. His father will be rewarded for each egg that successfully hatches. So the supreme alliance is the one that has the rights over Legion-5, not his father. If the subordinate disagrees with the decision then he will report to the supreme alliance.

The subordinate didn't disagree so Legion-5 was placed in the incubator. The subordinate could only hope that Legion-5 would survive so that he would gain more rewards from the Supreme Alliance.

One of them wants him to die while the other wants him to live but the more hatchlings that survive, the more the reward for both the subordinate and Legion-5's father. In one way or the other, their motives are based on benefits.lightsnovel

Legion-5 is ignorant of everything going on in his surroundings. He only noticed that he was an egg after a while of the absence of the sensation of connection to another being.

"What is going on out there? Why don't I have a mother anymore? Is she dead? Why am I not dying?"

He has so many questions but very little answers. It is grating to live in ignorance especially when he is aware that there is a lot going on that he doesn't know about. But he stopped worrying about it after a while when there were no noticeable changes to him.

Life continued for him. He was gestating on his own without support just fine. His father and his caretakers ought to be glad but the two of them had different reactions when Legion-5 didn't die immediately and was actually growing stronger.

Legion-5's father said with regret, "So I was wrong. He is not a chimera after all. I expected his body to collapse without the support of the mother plant. Looks like I won't get to use his corpse for my research."

He isn't happy at all that Legion-5 is still alive. The reward of the supreme alliance doesn't motivate him as much as his pursuit of knowledge. He is not like his Sovereign subordinate who needs to make contributions in order to gain the assistance of the Supreme Alliance in becoming an Origin god.

If he succeeds in making a contribution that will affect the whole race of supreme beasts through his research, then becoming a world god will not be a faraway dream. Unfortunately, the mutated egg is not an undead beast or a chimera with an unstable body that causes the Mother plant to consider him unviable.

He narrowed his eyes at the report. He is suspicious of its validity so he decided to extended his divine sense down to the hatchery to the incubator that Legion-5 is in. His divine sense scanned the life fluctuations of the egg and compared the data collected to his observation.

He was disappointed to discover that there was no mistake. Everything pointed at the same thing. The egg was thriving. However, the disappointment didn't reduce his interest in the anomalous egg. His curiosity has only increased in light of the new information.

"His vitality is astonishing and his soul activity is off the charts. He will surely hatch at this rate. How did an egg go from unviable to super viable?" The Origin asked himself.

He has so many questions too but very few answers. Unfortunately, he won't be able to get his answers despite being the father and being an Origin god.
