GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 977 Pride And Prejudice.

Xigger rushed at the ice golems and engaged in close combat with them. His mighty and bloody claws crushed and tore them apart while the wings of blood blades on his back sliced them apart. His ministrations led to the rapid loss of body mass of his opponents.

The ice golems are numerous and they are also strong. But their body is still made of ice. It is very tough ice that can break some strong metals but it is still ice. Even the white armor on their bodies is made of ice.

The ice lacked the defense necessary to withstand his blood attacks. Their only saving grace is that they can heal indefinitely. Their bodies came together no matter how many times he broke or crushed them. So it became a battle of attrition.

The ice golems surrounded the blood beast from all sides and pounded at it with their titanic fists and whatever they had on hand. They wielded clubs and weapons made out of ice. Some had arms in the shape of swords, spears, hammers, and clubs.

They can't use spells so they can only rely on physical attacks. They used all they had to try and crush Xigger. It was not enough because Xigger remained safe deep within his armor of blood. The blood beast is a cocoon of blood that is capable of both defense and attacks.

The Colossal Blood beast took on the hits without issue. Its malleability makes it capable of withstanding high physical impacts. It would ripple with each attack before returning to its previous form so it is as if the ice golems are beating elastic foam. It can also regenerate easily. It healed the little damage that they managed to inflict on it so they can't get to Xigger hidden within.

Meanwhile, the claws of the blood beasts are hard and sharp. Those claws rend the ice golems apart with each hit. And the 200-meter-long wings of blood blades rotating about on his back cut the ice golems apart. He did not succumb despite being besieged on all sides. He even managed to use the proximity to his advantage. He doesn't have to go far looking for targets to hit.

Despite the success of Xigger's attacks, the ice golems just put themselves back together and keep coming back. So the two sides fought each other to a standstill. They can both regenerate so their fight will not end soon. It gave the forces backing them some time to chat.

"Do you want to bet on who will win?" The demon god of Carnage asked.

The fountain of life replied, "I am not betting or making any deals with you."

"I am sure we can come to an agreement. Work with me and we can do great things." The demon god tried to convince the fountain of life.

"I can do great things on my own."

"Where is your source of confidence from you stubborn and prideful cretin? Is it from the Will of the plane? The Will of the plane will fail you. I will devour it and trample on this plane when I am done with it."

"Or is it your confidence in your puny strength? You may be special but you are weak. I can break your existence and your pride as easily as I kill Origin gods. Surrender to me and you will have salvation. Oppose me and you will fall prey to CARNAGE."

The fountain of life snorted and refused to talk anymore. This is not the first time that they are having this conversation. The demon god can't find it but it can sense that the fountain of life's sense covers the entire surface. So the demon god can contact it by broadcasting openly.

The fountain of life hears the broadcasts and sends out its own messages. The two of them use this method to engage in conversations through their senses without meeting each other. They can talk about anything but the only thing that the demon god wants is to recruit the fountain of life. It is honestly an insult to the fountain of life for it to be asked to become a subordinate of a demon god.

The fountain of life is not as powerful as a demon god but that isn't the issue. Pride is the issue. The fountain of life believes it has too much self-worth to become any demon god's lackey. So it ignored the demon god and focused on the fight instead.

The ongoing fight went on for an hour before it began to have an ending. The white ice golem stopped being completely white. Traces of blood had mixed into the material that makes up their body. Those traces increased as time passed making the once pristine ice body reddish as if tainted by blood.

They have actually been marred by blood. The blood discolored them and also inhibited the healing of the ice golems. So it became very difficult for the ice golems to reform their bodies after they got broken. This is very important because their bodies get broken a lot.

Xigger did a number on them. They shouldn't have any form with how much damage he inflicted on them. But they always recover. So he made blood from his domain seep into their broken forms. The voice in his head told him to.

The blood he mixed in enhanced their regeneration briefly so that their injury healed as fast as possible. Their broken forms regenerated faster because of the blood. This quick regeneration also made sure that the blood was assimilated into their flesh before it could be ejected. This is how Xigger managed to invade the ice golems with his domain.

Xigger fought slowly and with patience. It wasn't until the white ice golems became completely red that he dealt the final blow. He shattered them and they didn't regenerate anymore. Then the blood within them returned to him. It dragged along the flesh of the ice golems to him. They were consumed which further strengthened him. It took 3 hours but he finally defeated all 100 of them.
