GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1539 Blame Legion.

His laughter is not natural. It was deranged and warped. Stressful moments like this make his damaged psyche hurt.

He asked them again, "Do you like what you see?"

Even as he said that, he couldn't help but chuckle. Fortunately, he soon got a hold of himself.

"I am sure you all have questions. I am sure that you are awed by the power of Authority that I have just displayed. It is truly remarkable. Just imagine what it could do in the hands of a world god if an Origin god can achieve this with it."

"Imagine its power. However, only friends of mine will be given the opportunity to acquire it. Some of you here are my friends. As for the rest that haven't made up your minds yet, I hope you will make a good decision now that you know what you're going to miss out on if you become my enemies."

A world god asked him, "Why aren't you maintaining their enchanted state?"

This world god and many others witnessed the two fights that just occurred. They saw the defeat of a world god by an Origin god and the retreat of three world gods by the same Origin god.

It is impressive. But they also saw that the battleships weren't powerful at the beginning of the battle. They only became powerful after some time. It might have been a fluke during the first fight. But they are certain that something is off after witnessing the same thing during the second fight.

They are certain that the unnatural enhancement of world fragments into weapons that can threaten world gods is due to Authority. But then the battleships reverted to their weak state after the battle. They would like to know why he is not keeping them in the enhanced state indefinitely.

The delay in the transmission of the battleship is a weakness that they can exploit now after seeing it. Instead of dodging and testing the waters as the first and second batch of world gods did, they would go at their full power and overwhelm the battleships before they could fuse and enhance each other.

Monarch High Heaven snorted at the world gods. He asked with frustration, "Do think I don't know that? If I didn't have that problem, then what would I need you guys for?"

He was proud a second ago, but now he is still proud but more frustrated. He is aware of the flaw and can fix it. He can keep the battleships in their amplified mode forever, but it would cost a massive amount of energy to achieve that. That is apart from the energy required to make a normal attack at the Supreme Origin god level.

The battleships in their normal state don't require any energy other than Origin energy. He has a lot of that, so that's not an issue. Even the defense mode doesn't require much from him. But the overdrive mode not only requires Origin essence to initiate and maintain, it also requires cosmic energy for each attack.

The consumption of Origin Essence increases exponentially for each level of amplification. It doubles just like the amplification, so the combination of 1,000,000 requires 1,2,4,8,16,32 Origin essence for a total of 63 to initiate and 32 Origin essence each second after initiation to maintain.

When the previous stages of amplification are taken into account, the 7 seconds of amplification cost him 1+1+2+2+4+4+8+8+16+16+32+32 Origin essence, which is equal to 126 Origin essence. This is aside from the cost of cosmic energy for each attack.

It is not a bad trade to use 126 Origin essences and cosmic energy to gain the 64 times amplification needed to destroy the main body of a powerful world god. A lot of Origin gods possess Origin energy and cosmic energy but they can't do what he has just accomplished even if they want to. However, it is not something he can maintain all the time at all.

So despite creating a shortcut powerful enough to resist a world god, it is not something he can use without repercussions.

He is literally burning money for power.If he were not the richest Origin god in existence, he wouldn't be able to bear the cost.

Even then, he is still feeling the pinch because the energy cost is something he could use somewhere else. That's why he complained that the world gods didn't fight. So he still needs the world gods to help him maintain the barricade, or at least not attack him.

The world gods don't know the intricacies of the battleships, but they can guess that there are reasons why Monarch High Heaven can't keep the battleships in their amplified state. It made all of them happy for several reasons. His enemies are generally glad that he can't use such great power however he wishes, while those who want to be his friends are happy at the opportunity that this weakness has granted them. Both his enemies and friends want to take advantage of this weakness.

So it was not surprising to the realm lord when another world god asked, "You need us. What do you plan to give us?"

Many world gods voiced this question. Their tone was full of determination to fleece him and the expectation of their success in the endeavor.

Monarch High Heaven grumbled to himself as he thought about it. "This is all Legion's fault. They will pay for this."

He is not a fool who will blame others for his problems, but Legion is truly responsible for his need for the help of more world gods. The battleships were not his only plan to barricade the realm tree. He was supposed to work with the Phoenix race. Their immortality would have worked well in reducing the energy cost to put up the barricade.

He and the Great Mother had made a deal for cooperation. He would empower the great mother with Authority and the Phoenix race would help him hold off trespassers so that the battleship would have enough time to perform the combination.
