GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 2527: Complete Godling.

The main problem that the pathway of slavery has to overcome is overwhelming the power and defense of a target before it can enslave them. So the divine fragment gave them something to help solve that problem.

The rank 10 Offensive Adaptation works by helping their divine abilities get used to the defense and resistance of a target. So when the Offensive divine ability is used together with a divine ability, that divine ability will slowly become more effective against the target.

The Offensive Adaptation divine ability works in a similar way to the Environmental Adaptation divine ability. Its effect is slow, but the progress can be sped up by investing more energy into it.

However, the Offensive works in the opposite way to the Environmental Adaptation divine ability. One of them works on defense while the other works on offense.

They were happy and satisfied with their new rank 10 divine abilities. They were also glad that they survived the process of advancing their two pathways to the godling rank. But this success came at a grave cost.

The cost that they had to pay was that they became unable to use borrowed or stolen divine abilities from their slaves. This was because their divine bodies were rejecting them.

Their innate talent could help them have more than one divine body and can even help them keep using the divine abilities of other pathways in a conflicting divine body. But their innate talent couldn’t help them keep their borrowed divine abilities.

This wasn’t a problem when they only had one permanent divine body. But after gaining a second permanent divine body, foreign divine abilities became unwelcome in their bodies.

Currently, only the divine body of the pathway of slavery can still use the divine abilities of its slaves. Their other two divine bodies would shut down the activation of any foreign divine ability.

This was a significant loss of their power. But they considered it a worthy trade. Besides, they couldn’t continue to be sad about it because their fusion rate with the Mind Palace was about to reach 50%.

After they advanced their three pathways to the godling rank, Legion decided to stay in hiding. They didn’t kill anyone, and they didn’t cause any trouble anywhere.

This was because the gods were looking for them and because they didn’t want to create new enemies. To be honest, the most important reason that they decided to stay in hiding was that they didn’t have any important reason or need to go looking for trouble.

They had everything they needed, so they could afford to stay in hiding. If there was something they needed, like a divine flesh, or a divine fragment, or an authority of a pathway, it was very likely that they would go out looking for trouble.

But they didn’t need anything. And they had a lot to lose. So they stayed in hiding. Instead of fighting, they spent their time moving around to avoid anyone finding them.

In just a month of waiting, their fusion rate with the Mind Palace reached 50%. They were only halfway to becoming the god of the pathway of telepathy, but they could now become a godling of this pathway.

Now that they have reached a 50% rate of fusion with the Mind Palace, they don’t need to impress it to get the divine fragment that they need from it. They also don’t need any ritual to request the divine fragment. They can just take what they need and advance.

The process of advancing was painful as usual. But as usual, it was rewarding. They gained the usual perks, including a new rank 10 divine ability that made them look forward to going through something like that again.

Their physical and spiritual stats had reached the limit of the mortal realm when they first became godlings. But after advancing three more pathways to the godling rank, their power broke the limit three times in a row.

From 10,240 units for their strength, speed, defense, and spirit, it reached 40,960 units each after all four of their pathways advanced to the godling rank.

Their divine power remains the same as 108, but it can now enhance all of their pathways, not just the pathway of killing. This means that their individual power of 40,960 can be boosted by up to 108 times without any issues.

In comparison, other godlings with three souls can only have a divine power of 3 Souls x 1 Average Mastery x 9 Divine Flesh, which is 27. So their divine power is 4 times greater than that of normal godlings, too.

When their raw power is enhanced by their divine power, the power that they can produce becomes 40,960 × 108, which is 4,423,680. This is 16 times stronger than when they were an angel and also 16 times stronger than the power of a godling with 3 souls.

The second greatest increase in any aspect of their power is the increase in their divine energy. This is indisputable because their divine power increased from 192,000 units to 491,520.
