Chapter 1634: The Laughter Of The Victorious.
?
Even if Legion-7''s willingness tomit suicide is not enough to bring all of them and their tenth clone down, it is bound to work if they employ the assistance of the void universe in it too. After all, no world god can overpower the void universe.
What the void universe hates the most is tampering with time, so if they try to rewind time, the bacsh should be heavy enough to kill them. Even if the First Sage seeds against all odds and blocks that bacsh on their behalf, they will be able to actually return to the past and undo what the First Sage did to them.
If that still doesn''t work, then they will let CARNAGE lose or make Aeternus descend into his Demonic Spark. These are extreme measures that they don''t want to do, which is why they are saving them forst.
It is a series of ns that cannot fail. All of Legion were of one mind in that regard. If they all fail, then they truly deserve to be enved by the first sage.
They were determined not to face that ending so they were determined and didn''t hold back as Legion-7 used Legion-4''s cosmic maniption to manipte the world outside of their minds, then used Legion-5''s cosmic domain to freeze the world, and then tried to rewind time.
They selected arge area to rewind its times so as to ensure that even if the First Sage manages to interfere and they fail to return to the past, the bacsh of their attempt will wound or kill the First Sage.
They were right about the size of the bacsh. The void universe was furious. The bacsh struck them with vengeance. Legion-7 epted the bacsh to himself readily. He didn''t let it go to the clones.
They had done all they could and were waiting for the First Sage''s move. They were sure to counter it, but their expectations were subverted.
The tenth clone onlyughed as their minds began toe apart. He was not mocking them for their desperate attempt or taunting them about its failure. Their n did work. It was just too easy.
The First Sage didn''t stop them at all. All he did wasugh. Legion-7''s spark of consciousness shattered, and he seeded in destroying his backup of all the clones easily. There was no resistance, so it urred quickly.
He died, and so did all of Legion. The bacsh made certain of it. The white mental world darkened instantly. It didn''t shake or crack like it didst time. It just went dark and died.
Thest thing they saw before they lost their consciousness was the first sage finally saying something.
The First Sage said to them, "I am the Eye of the Sage. I bring my desired future to pass. You can never beat me."
He taunted them again, "You have lost. You can''t escape me. I will alwayse after you. This has changed nothing."
This reminded them of the vision the first sage had seen when they allowed the curse to enter their soul. What Soverick had seen back then hase through now. That fact alone didn''t make them happy. What the first sage said as they died made them feel worse.
The First Sage was right. They had lost at that moment. Back then, Soverick didn''t know if he was in a predictionpetition with the first sage or if it had started. He knows all of it now. He also knows that they fell into another trap by killing themselves. It is a trap that they didn''t have a choice in. They lost right from the moment theyprehended the first sage''s Supreme Law, and they have been losing since.
They promised themselves, "We will never tamper with any Supreme Law again." That''s thest thing that went through their minds. They have to go to sleep now, and it is going to be a very long time because Legion-7 can''t resurrect them, and the void universe is kind of angry with them. They are going to pay for the time they tried to rewind, so their resurrection won''t start for a while.
They don''t believe that they were overreacting when they made that promise because something they thought could never happen happened to them all because they messed with the supremew of a world god.
They had three methods of resurrection, the soul sphere, Legion-7, and the immortality of Origin gods through the void universe. But somehow, they had rendered all three of them incapable of resurrecting them in a short amount of time.
The soul sphere needs at least one of them alive to help them. It can''t help them if there is no clone to bear the soul sphere. They have to wait for the void universe to get around to resurrecting them like any other Origin god. If it is toote and they don''t resurrect within an Origin cycle, then they will miss out on the era of conquestpletely.
All of this happened because they wanted it to happen. It was the best oue for them after everything happened. With the first sage in their minds, and with them out in the void, anything could have happened to them. It was better to kill themselves than fall into the first sage''s hands. So no they don''t think they were overreacting when they made that promise.
Meanwhile, the era of conquest continued without them. Mother High Heaven had just announced the start of the era of conquest in the High Heaven realm. The realm lord has gone to barricade the Tyrant Realm. Weak entities in the high heaven realm were just leaving to avoid danger, while Origin gods were just arriving.
The remnant of Legion, on the other hand, is floating around in the void. This remnant is the world fragment that they built. It is still standing since they didn''t use any Supreme Law in making it directly. They just copied the mechanism of the Supreme Laws, which means it wasn''t part of the struggle with the first sage.
