Greed: All For What?



Soverick observed solemnly, "So it is an innate ability. It is not something they achieved with the help of the divine plane."

Legion-5 said, "The Tyrant race is truly impressive. They can boost each other with their

Supreme Laws. Even paragons can't do this as Origin gods. Could it be because they are paragons of both the living and the dead?"

The barrier they can see now pales in comparison to the one Aeternus corrupted and defeated. It is because the Tyrants didn't have enough time to set it up, and they don't have the support of a massive structure like the divine plane.

All of these make it so that they can't offset the damage to the divine plane. They have to bear it themselves, which means they can't heal the damage quickly enough.

Even so, it is still impressive that the Tyrant race can create something like this. Each Supreme Law is working together with the ones close to it instead of pushing them aside in a bid for supremacy.

It is beautiful to look at, and it reminds them of how they built the law matrix of the world fragment. But what they did can't compare to what they are seeing. In fact, they have never seen or heard anyone capable of doing something like this.

Paragons usually lose their POWER stat because mortals can't enhance immortals, and immortals can't enhance each other since their concepts will reject each other when they interact.

Even Origin artifacts, which are the body parts of immortals, are largely useless to Origin gods. Only something like a Supreme Law or a world fragment can enhance an Origin god. But both of those two can't enhance each other either.

But the Tyrants are evidently not part of this rule. Even Tyrants with concepts can work together and enhance each other instead of trying to eliminate each other. Their Supreme Tyrants can extend this corperation between them to create a barrier that protects the weaker ones behind them.

Legion can only attribute it to a type of spiritual connection between paragons who gain power from both the living and the dead.

Legion-7 said, "They are many, but each one enhances the other, so all of them gain power from the presence of each other. It is not a shame that the Tyrant Realm fell to them."

Talking and admiring the view is one thing. It didn't stop Legion from trying to demolish the seal too. They did both of them with a critical eye, ensuring to spot the weaknesses in the barrier, admire it, and then exploit it for the glory of high heaven.

The barrier rendered any top-grade artifact or weapon that couldn't harm Supreme Origin gods. Only powerful weapons with Supreme Powers could put a dent in the barrier. But it was only that. The best they could do was put a dent in the barrier. They couldn't break it.

This didn't mean the barrier was unbreakable. Far from it. It had glaring weaknesses that were obvious to Legion and some other Origin gods. Those who could see these weaknesses took advantage of them quickly.

The barrier was like a law matrix. It connected nodes of Supreme Power. It could block most of the attacks because it could redirect all of its defensive power to any part of the barrier that needed it. But this made certain areas of the law matrix weaker.

The law matrix had finite defensive resources. By redistricting these resources, it made it difficult to be overwhelmed as a whole. The weaknesses it created, on the other hand, would have been harmless if they weren't spotted. But not only did Legion spot them, they even told Mother High Heaven about them.

Mother High Heaven was not helpless without the information they provided. She had begun to order 90% of the firepower to be directed toward a single spot. This caused the law matrix to resist, which caused every other area to become weakened. The remaining 10% were then able to capitalize on this weakness.

This tactic made the barrier predictable, but it wasn't as effective as Legion's constant snitching. With Legion-1's assistance, the remaining 10% could be directed toward a single spot of weakness instead of targeting some random area. This increased the effectiveness of the tactic by 100%.

Legion's death stars and many other Supreme Weapons directed their shots to areas of vulnerability. This created holes in the barrier for the normal artillery to take advantage of. So even top grade weapons that couldn't affect the barrier were put to use to destroy the things behind it.

As if that wasn't bad enough, the barrier tried to seal the holes that were created by redirecting its power to it. This succeeded, but came at the cost of ignoring the 90% firepower fixated at a certain spot. It didn't come as a surprise when another hole was created in the barrier.

Legion made it so that once a hole was created in the barrier, the usefulness of the barrier was halved. But this didn't destroy the barrier, and its usefulness was not halved. It was still able to protect the large majority of forces behind it simply by the virtue that it had limited what could be damaged to the holes.

So Legion shifted their targets to the Supreme Tyrants that made the barrier. They began trying to make the holes appear in front of the nodes so that they could destroy them when they became vulnerable.

This worked very well, but it was slow-going. Holes were created and repaired in a cycle. A Supreme Tyrant was successfully eliminated in some cycles, and in some, the holes missed them, so they had to start all over again.

This tactic slowed down the invaders, regardless of its success or failure. This is because they had to move at the same pace and maintain the same relative distance between each other to keep the integrity of their barrier intact.

In the case when a hole was created, they had to stop to let it mend. This drawback made their situation worse.
