Chapter 1668: Another Offer.
Legion-7 groaned and complained, "This is even bigger than we expected."
The force that locked onto them did not lock onto just one clone. It found all of them, including Legion-7, who was residing in their consciousness. Even Legion-5, who is currently in the Spiritual Dimension, didn\'t escape their grasp.
The entity didn\'t attack them. In fact, they can\'t see it at all. But they know the entity is close to them and powerful. They waited anxiously for the entity to finally make a move. It did so in the most unexpected way. It chose to connect to their minds to communicate with them, and it sent nine messages to each of them.
They were frowning as one would when they were about to be robbed when the message finally reached them. The message created a channel of information between them and the entity that found them. This entity sent over a piece of their will to speak with them.
The Will condensed into an apparition in the minds of the clones. This apparition was dark and ghostly. But it had tiny stars twinkling within its form and a large, shining eye on its face. The entity said, "Legion, I need your help."
They had relaxed when they recognized the entity, but then they tensed up again when they heard what she said.
They asked, "What do you need our help with, Mother High Heaven?"
She replied, "Do you remember the favor I asked of your dragon clone? I am asking it of you now. You should not be afraid of accepting since you are immortal now."
Legion\'s frown returned. They thought about it, and while what Mother High Heaven said about their immortality is right, they do not want to fight. Especially not when they have a lot of valuables currently in their possession.
Plus, whatever danger the Will of the realm would be in cannot be something simple. Maybe resurrection won\'t even be an option for them. World gods can freeze them so they can\'t die. If they can\'t die, then they can\'t be resurrected.
Even if they manage to resurrect, there\'s nothing that says the danger will be over for them as long as they die twice. A curse can affect them even after they resurrect.
Then there is the danger of angering a world god. Helping Mother High Heaven might draw the danger of world gods to themselves, which will negatively impact their future plans. Last but certainly not least, this whole request sounds fishy. It sounds like a scheme to bait them. It might even be an illusion like the one they experienced because of the first sage.
If not for the fact that this apparition feels familiar and even mentioned a conversation with the dragon clone that only they and the Will of the Realm should know, they might not believe at all that she is Mother High Heaven.
Even so, they are still wary because this could still be an illusion by a world god. And this might be a scheme by the realm lord to get them to return to the realm tree.
But Legion didn\'t reject her outright. They asked, "What is this favor you need? Please be specific about the difficulties you are facing, how we can help, and what reward we will gain from it."
That last part is the most important part of the information they need to make a decision. The reward has to make the risk worth it, or they won\'t help her at all.
Mother High Heaven replied, "I want to deal with the Monarch High Heaven, and I will reward you nicely with whatever I loot from him. Plus, I will replace him with you. You will become the new realm lord."
Legion asked to be sure about what they just heard, "What did you say?"
She answered with slight agitation, "You heard me. Don\'t waste time with redundant questions."
"I am afraid we have to. How do you expect us to help you deal with Monarch High Heaven."
Mother High Heaven explained patiently, "I want you to follow the connection I am using to speak to you right now with your Spirit clone. You don\'t need to do much. All you need to do is stall someone else for me while I fight with the realm lord personally."
"If you do this for me, I will assist you in as many realm wars as you want. That is, if I don\'t succeed in eliminating him completely. But if I can subdue or capture him, you won\'t lose out."
Legion\'s whole existence tingled. It was not a tingling sensation of excitement. It was a tingling sensation of fear and danger. They felt unprecedented danger from the thought of making contact with the realm lord with their minds and overwhelming fear from thinking about fighting against him right now.
They don\'t even need Soverick\'s eyes. Their normal intuition of danger and common sense is enough for them to feel overwhelmed with fear by the idea of it that they want to create a large distance between them and anything related to it. After all, they just met the realm lord and can attest to his strength.
They are greedy, and the reward for this request is immense, but the danger is too great. They might have agreed if they didn\'t know he had comprehended all 33 laws of the void universe. They might have agreed if they didn\'t know he could produce Authority. But they know he has done all of those, including the creation of 10 billion world fragments and many more.
As if the danger of the realm lord isn\'t enough, the realm lord will also have a helper. They are just to stall the helper, but that hasn\'t made their situation less dangerous. Anyone who can help the realm lord with anything must be at the world god level.
Legion-7 said, "This is literally asking for our death."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
