Chapter 1844: Suspicion Of The Reward.
What they came here for is the domain, and they have acquired one. They have to see if they can truly bring it out of God's Domain and use it in the void universe.
That is going to be a long process because they don't know for certain if they can actually use the Authority of the void universe as Origin gods without Supreme Laws or if only world gods can make full use of it.
But even though they are uncertain about the usefulness of the Authority of the void universe, they still want to use the power they have on hand to acquire as much domains as possible.
So it is until Legion-1 returns from his hunt will they be able to determine if this world is worth their continued effort or not.
It is an important decision to make since they know that this whole thing has to be a scheme of Monarch High Heaven. Even if the domain is real and they can use it in the void universe, they doubt it is free and won't come with hidden costs. However, that doesn't stop them from planning in the case that they continue.
-Confrontation
Legion-1 flew out of Gemmis for the first time. He usually had to walk to go anywhere. But now he had regained the ability to fly to a destination in a straight line.
However, his ability to fly didn't change much about how he moved through the city. He still needed to navigate through the city since the buildings were too tall, so he couldn't move in a straight line through the city.
The good thing that had changed was that he could fly over the walls instead of leaving through the city gate. This differentiated him from the mass of flightless gods that had to trudge out of the city on foot like mortals.
He made for quite a sight and drew a lot of attention doing that. Not only was he flying, but his body was golden like that of a golem, and his hair was a forest of golden knives.
He looks like this because he is using the divine forge body. If he had used the divine fire body, his body would be red and his hair would be flames. His body would be brown if he had used the divine earth body.
He can't use all three of the divine bodies he has available at a time. He can only use one, which he can't complain much about.
If not for the divine matrix ability, their upper limit wouldn't have counted as nine, so they wouldn't have been able to absorb all three domains they got from the trial. They would have had to absorb one and leave the other two for others.
So he is already lucky and privileged. He can't for more. Besides, he is not helpless about the situation. He can rely on the other clones to use the other divine bodies while he uses the divine forge body. That way, no divine body will go to waste.
That is what each clone will specialize on now. They don't need to specialize in divinity since they have the divine forge body.
Fortunately, they don't need to ration world power between them. They can use all the world power their domains have granted them for whatever divine body they use.
World power is like Authority. It won't be divided between them even if they use different divine bodies. That way, they will all get stronger the more domains they have, so it will be great if they can get more domains.
He saw the first obstacle to that goal standing up ahead of him. It was Smite. The first domain god was standing in the air waiting for people to finish their trials. He was a predator skulking about for prey.
Unlike Legion's trial, which was fast, no one has been able to complete the trials of other domains yet. So the outcome of the other five trials is yet to be decided. This grants certain individuals the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Legion-1 narrowed his eyes at the domain god. He still doesn't know why Smite wanted to encourage the creation of divine calamities.
He is certain that it has something to do with getting more domains, and he is also certain that Smite has the divine body of fire, so his world power will be enhanced if he gets fire domains.
But that doesn't explain why he would encourage people to acquire domains since he should only be able to use one type of domain. Only a fire domain should be of use to him. The rest will go to waste.
The chances that someone will get a domain quest from killing a divine beast are already low. Even if they get the domain quest, it is unlikely that they will pass the trial, and even more unlikely that they will get a fire domain. This made it difficult for him to determine Smite's motive.
He thought to himself, "Could this be related to his reward for being the first domain god? Is the reward tied to him, or can it be acquired by killing him?"
He didn't ask his angel these questions because he doesn't want Smite to overhear him. The other clones asked their angel the questions, but their angel didn't provide any useful
answers.
But that didn't remove his suspicions of Smite because they have experienced something like this with Crystal Hoard too. It was when they heard of a special weapon when they wanted to attack Tempest and they couldn't figure out what use the special weapon would be.
Back then, it didn't make sense that Tempest would bring a divine weapon to a fight in the mortal realm. But now they know that is because of the uniqueness of Golden Light.
Right now, it also doesn't make sense that Smite would encourage the acquisition of domains. It made Legion inclined to believe that Smite had acquired a unique item as a reward for being the first domain god.
