It was like attracting bees with honey. They didn't call, but the god seeds still came. A fight with one god seed turned into a fight with two. That fight increased in size as more god seeds decided to partake in it. Soon, a free for all was created.

At this point, the divine orbs that Legion was carrying about have stopped being the impetus for fighting. The god seeds were fighting just to kill other god seeds for their divine orbs or to steal the divine orbs that dead god seeds dropped.

It was as if someone had dropped a spark into a barrel of flammable oil. The fires of violence spread quickly and wide. It was a calamity for some. But for others, it was an all you could eat banquet.

Legion was among the latter. All they saw was food, and they were determined to take full advantage of the ease of access to these foods that has been granted to them. So they made Legion-1 absorb the divine orbs they gained while the rest scattered to avoid fighting.

The other clones stuck around, but they only watched from afar to grant Legion-1 a complete 3-dimensional view of his surroundings. This way he could use his power efficiently.

Their preparation was overkill. He was already too strong and capable of killing other god seeds with a single attack, thanks to the 272 divinity in strength.

He didn't need to be adding the divinity he gained to speed, and he certainly didn't need to be able to see behind his back or know which god seeds have been fighting for a while and are vulnerable. These extra things made him a monster.

The god seeds, despite being in a frenzy for divinity, noticed the monster in their midst. They might not care about their lives as much as they should, but they certainly don't want to lose the little divinity they have to this monster.

A few minutes ago, they thought they had a chance to gain divinity, so they gambled. Now they know that their divinity is likely to be funneled towards the monster. It killed their motivation to fight, so they ditched the fight and ran.

The free for all ended, leaving Legion-1 and the other clones wanting more. Unfortunately, no one was willing to take the bait of divine orbs anymore. Not even the large amount of divine artifacts that the dead gods left in their wake could tempt them.

So the clones had to give up on their quick money-making scheme and return to Gemmis. They were determined not to return empty-handed, so one of the clones returned first to acquire ropes from the forges in the city. It was only after the rope arrived did they all return, dragging a train of armor and artifacts behind them.

The first thing they did when they got to Gemmis was go to the forges to sell the divine artifacts they picked up. They were offered the opportunity to exchange them for better equipment. They didn't have much choice in the matter, so they agreed.

Of course there was an alternative, which was to sell the divine artifacts to the other gods for divine crystals. But not only would it take time, the god seeds also have a cheaper alternative, which is to get it from their believers.

Besides, even if that option were feasible, they felt that they could always get divine crystals from divine beasts but could only get bona fide divine artifacts here. So Legion-1 changed his equipment to acquire divine artifacts that granted him a 10% boost to his stats.

The remaining divine artifacts were exchanged for store credit that they can use to purchase new equipment or upgrade their previous ones.

Next, they went to the temple. They used the divine investiture to contact Warshaw in the mortal realm and instructed her to begin the preparation for the annexation of the surrounding tribes. They told her to prepare for war.

They knew that believers were important, but they didn't want to start fighting with other tribes yet until they got more information to plan and make decisions. It is not a good idea to be rash, especially when they are ignorant about this world.

But now they don't mind a little rashness after they have gotten a taste of the power of divine spells. They want their Authority to increase at all costs, and they want a large supply of the divine energy needed to use divine spells.

Besides, the souls they will gain from sacrificed enemies and their dead believers will help them create their altar. So regardless of their interests in Authority or Divine Energy, they must have mortal souls if they are to build their altar.

Only their need for war has changed. The reasons they didn't want to have war haven't changed. They still haven't found a way to overcome the risk of war yet.

For one, it will be very difficult and inefficient without their presence there in the mortal realm to oversee and direct Warshaw. Plus, they won't be able to assist with miracles, so anything can go wrong.

They can even lose the Authority they have. It is a possible outcome of war. However, those reasons won't hold them back anymore. At the very least, Warshaw has to start collecting data about the surrounding tribes and compiling it for them to make a decision.

The next thing they did was replenish their divine energy. They received a notification immediately after they did that.

-You have converted Prayers of the faithful to Divine Energy.

-You have received 612 Divine Energy.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

-You have 7 prayers left.

This is why they didn't leave behind one of their clones at the divine investiture earlier to assist them with divine energy. It is because Divine Energy is not endless. It comes from the prayers of their believers, and there was very little of it when they just ascended.

It wouldn't have been worth it to keep an extra set of eyes and manpower behind for very few prayers. It was only after a few hours of fighting that their storage of prayers increased, and now they are almost out of it again.

If their believers don't pray frequently, then they will be on their way to death. As it is, they had spent a little more than 600 DE in their fights. It is a little more than the total DE of a single clone and about 12.8% of their total DE. That expenditure was just in a few hours of fighting, but they are already running out of prayers to replenish it.

As it is, they can only look forward to the evening prayers to get another bump in their supply of prayers. They may have a lot of DE between them, but they won't be able to replenish it if their expenditure increases more than their current rate.

It is because while they have access to each other's DE, they have the same believers. A single god would be content with the amount of prayers they are getting, but it is not nearly enough for 9 of them.

Legion-9 said with optimism, "At the very least, we should be getting more prayers soon. War always increases the faith of believers."

Legion-1 didn't agree. He said, "But we should not prioritize prayers above our believers. War will cause us to lose more believers than prayers if we are not careful."

Legion-9 insisted, "Even so, war is the only way to get believers quickly. The alternative is to wait for childbirth and the maturity of the next generation before we can harness their faith. On the other hand, we can gain new believers by stealing them through war. The boon to prayers is just a side effect."

Legion-5 suggested, "Authority is powerful, but divinity cannot be neglected either. It rendered about half of our Authority useless and rendered the Authority of others completely useless."

This led to a discussion on what their next plans should be. They have learned a lot from their fights, apart from the material gain that they earned. For one, they know what it means to have a fight where both sides lose something.

They won the skirmish with the god seeds that ambushed them by a landslide. Their enemies didn't manage to hit them once because they protected themselves with Divine Shield. But they still lost DE because of it. It is something that having a lot of divinity in Endurance would have prevented.

On the other hand, their enemies had more Divinity than them, but they lost badly because their Authority was severely lacking.

The importance of Authority is clear. Unfortunately, they have reached a plateau for it. They can't gain more in a short amount of time without resorting to drastic actions that might lead to them losing the amount of Authority they have currently. To gain more Authority is to gamble the ones they have.

Divinity is not exempted from that risk either. The god seeds that they killed lost half of their divinity when they died. They could have gained more of they had won, but they lost the gamble.

Their saving grace is that their Authority is intact. As long as their believers don't know that their gods are weak, their Authority will not reduce even if they die over and over again.

Now Legion is on an edge. They want to maintain their advantage in Authority so they are getting their tribe ready for war. It is a gamble that they might lose and therefore lose their advantage in Authority. It is a dilemma that every god must face.

Unfortunately, there are no easy solutions. What's more, it might affect their goal of acquiring divinity and divine crystals because chasing after one will take up their time and energy to acquire the other others.

Killing gods doesn't drop divine crystals, and killing beasts doesn't drop divinity. They had asked their angel why divine beasts as divine creatures don't drop divinity. It had said that the divinity of the slain beasts was taken or stolen from them.

They can't do anything to stop that. So they have to decide to pursue and prioritize either one.

They need divinity badly because they are running out of prayers. If they use Divine Energy the way they just did, they will run out of Divine Energy very soon and die. Until they find other ways to acquire Divinity, killing other gods is what they have to do.

The clones understand the importance of divinity and also realize how easier it would be for them to acquire Divine crystals if they had a lot of Divinity. Unfortunately, pursuing Divinity means they will have to delay the acquisition of Divine crystals, which might be detrimental to their goal of being the first 100 godlings.

They were bouncing ideas off each other when they heard an announcement throughout Gemmis.

-Regional Announcement.

-Congratulations to Crystal Hoard for being the 1st Godling in the Northern Realm.

-The ranking list is now available.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The clones heard that and made up their minds. They have realized that nothing is certain. Everything is a gamble. Any decision they make might make them lose out on something else. They can only do their best. That means they have to utilize their advantage over other gods.

Currently, their advantage is their high Authority and their ability to share divine energy with each other. They gained the advantage of Authority because they stayed longer in the mortal realm. That means the god seeds who are currently in the mortal will take away their advantage when they ascend. So they are running out of time to fully utilize their advantage.

The best thing to do to make sure that they are not rendered obsolete when that happens is to have a lot of divinity to resist divine spells. So they are going to use their current advantage over Authority to acquire Divinity first.

The next thing they decided on was not to make the same mistakes that the other god seeds make. The group of 10 that attacked them were working together. Their cooperation was good, and it worked well for them as they divided the divinity they earned evenly between each of them. This made them strong as a group. But Legion is not going to do that.

They are already strong as a group since they share Authority amongst each other. They are not going to create nine mediocre god seeds. Instead, they intend to create one extraordinary god seed.

Unlike the other god seeds, they can trust each other unconditionally. So only one of them will absorb the divinity they gain. The addition of all their divine energy and Authority will lead to the creation of one super-extraordinary god seed.

The success that Legion-1 enjoyed in the free for all has proven that their decision is correct and that they should continue with it. The next thing to decide was if they should continue with Legion-1 or create a new super-extraordinary clone specifically for hunting god seeds. They chose the latter, and the clone they chose for this great work is Legion-2. He has a bow, so he has the longest range of attack amongst all of them. This will solve the problem of gods running away that they encountered with Legion-1.

The arrows he shoots always return to his quiver, so he has unlimited armory. He is also the only one who can perform best on his own with blind spots in his vision. After all, an arrow only needs to see one target.

They didn't choose Legion-1 for this because his mission is to help them acquire divine crystals. He will protect them from the ice wolves and the ambush of god seeds.

Acquiring divine crystals is their failsafe plan since divine crystals are still a priority if they want to become one of the first godlings. But first, he has to help Legion-2 acquire energy divinity to become deadly to the other god seeds.

The free for all has taught them that only one of them is needed to hunt god seeds. So while Legion-2 is doing that, Legion-1 and the rest of them will be hunting divine beasts.

When all of that was decided, they left Gemmis again, leaving one clone behind in the temple. They chose Legion-3 because he is too weak to use his daggers to hunt ice wolves.

Daggers are short range weapons, but fighting in that range will expose him to danger, which is why he is usually at the back of the squad, providing protection, overhead view, and ambush warning to the clones.

But now he will sit in front of the investiture Steele to use prayers to replenish divine energy and remain in contact with Warshaw as she tries to increase their numbers of believers. Staying in contact is the most important reason they have decided to let him stay behind, seeing as they are preparing for war.

The other eight clones left Gemmis and killed every god seed they encountered. It was not efficient like the free for all since god seeds were running away from them in different

directions. But they eventually managed to reach their goal of raising Legion-2 to a respectable level.

NAME: Number 2

RACE: Local Deity (Orc)

TITLE: Second Crown.

TIER: 0

LEVEL: 23

DIVINE ENERGY: 532

STRENGTH: 109+5

ENDURANCE: 27+3

SPEED: 95+7

AUTHORITY: 532

DIVINE ABILITIES: DIVINE MATRIX NETWORK. INSIGHT. BLESSING. LESSER MIRACLEn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

DIVINE SPELLS: DIVINE STRIKE, DIVINE SHIELD, DIVINE HOLD.

WEAPONS: Light Leather Armor (+3 Endurance). Hunting Bow (+5 Strength). Hunting shoes (+7 Speed).

They prioritized his speed and strength over endurance. This is important because god seeds can't have more than 1,000 divinity. They will stop gaining levels when they reach level 100. This will continue until they evolve. Until then, they have to prioritize which aspect of their existence they want to empower with Divinity.

Legion-1 is to focus on Endurance and Strength while Legion-2 would focus on Strength and Speed. This way, they will be able to do their respective jobs effectively.

The remaining 7 clones, including Legion-1, continued to the elemental zones to kill divine beasts, while Legion-2 separated from them to hunt gods.

Legion-3 was communicating with Warshaw. He could only get information when she prayed to him. Information and her memories were transmitted to the divine investiture as prayers. He can only gain access to those prayers when he is in contact with the stele.

Every god seed that has ascended can only use this method of communication for now. They can't see what their Oracles are currently doing or what situation they are in. They have to wait for their Oracles to pray to them. Then they have to come to Gemmis to access the prayers.

If they want to mobilize their believers and Oracles in the mortal realm to help them expand their religion, this method of communication ensures that it would be very difficult to do, and they won't even be able to offer help. That's why they told Warshaw to only gather information about the surrounding tribes for now.

Warshaw gave them the information she had about the surrounding tribes first before she sent warriors and scouts to check up on them.

From what she said, there are 3 tribes nearby. They plan to target the weakest tribe first. If they can convert them without bloodshed, it would be good. If not, then they will kill a lot of them and use their souls to create their altar.

Sacrifice will also grant them divine energy so they are not against a fight. But above all, they intend to be cautious lest they become the ones whose believers would be used to create altars and supply divine energy for other gods.

While other gods were fighting each other for divinity and using their divinity to hunt for divine crystals only to return to the temple to direct their Oracles in the acquisition of living sacrifice, Legion was doing all three at once.

Legion-2 first targeted the god seeds that were hunting divine beasts. This way he was able to see them fight and estimate their strength before taking action. He didn't fight anyone he met on the way or those not fighting. He made sure to only target the weak.

This cautious approach made hunting slow as he had to observe his targets. But then his hunting speed picked up after a few hours spent killing more than a hundred god seeds. He began to target anyone in sight.

He had gained a lot of confidence when he reached level 50. At that time, he had 50 divinity in Endurance, 200 in Speed and 250 Strength. The fact that he had acquired half of the maximum divinity after 26 hours of ascending to the divine plane and his high Authority were the foundation of his confidence.

He decided to attack first instead of using Insight, which would warn his targets. He also decided to attack every god seed he laid eyes on. This caused his hunting speed to increase. Things got a little dangerous when he offended a group of powerful god seeds. They targeted him and didn't give up as they chased him. It is the benefit of infinite stamina.

He led them around in a circle and managed to kill half of them. But then he saw that they wanted to pick up his loot and absorb it. After all, as a bow user, he was too far away from his target. That made him target the god seed that wanted to steal his loot to kill him.

Eventually he killed enough of them to discourage them. But that didn't discourage some god seeds. They decided to surround him to prevent him from escaping.

Their plan almost worked, except that some random god seeds broke their encirclement from outside of it. They were 7 to be exact. They helped Legion-2 escape from them.

He too didn't give up after escaping. He kept stalking and hunting them. This led to a series of harrowing events where the bulk of the god seeds decided to retreat to Gemmis and refused to come out.

Legion-2 shrugged and changed his target to the god seeds lurking around the four city gates. These god seeds prey on weakened god seeds returning to the divine city to replenish their divine energy.

They forewent the acquisition of Divine crystals in favor of divinity, so they are very strong. Most of them were at least level 10. Some had even reached level 30, the same level legion-1 started out with.

But their strength didn't intimidate Legion. He smiled and said, "Where have you been all my life?"

Then he notched his arrow and began killing them from afar. The ambushers became ambushed. They tried to fight back, but he was too far away. They eventually retreated into Gemmis after realizing the errors of their way. But they still died enough to help him reach level 100.

That was the maximum level. He had to upgrade his tier and evolve from a god seed into a true god to gain more divinity. But he didn't stop hunting god seeds. It would be foolish to do so when it has become so easy for him to kill.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

He couldn't use the divine orbs he gained from killing god seeds anymore, but the other clones who were hunting ice wolves surely could. They also need divinity to purchase divine spells from the divine investiture.

At this time, one arrow was enough to kill most god seeds because he put most of his divinity into strength. His strength was at 600, Endurance at 100, Speed at 300, for a total of 1,000.

So unless someone is level 60 and they put all their divinity in Endurance, they will always be damaged by his attacks if they don't use Divine Shield or have an insanely powerful divine artifact to defend themselves with.

If they use Divine Shield, it would take authority of 6,000 at 10% to completely block his attacks. Even then, they would still lose 10 DE for using the shield.

Those with Authority at 6,000 don't currently exist. There aren't even god seeds with 1,000 Authority yet, but even if there were those with 10,000, they will still lose 10 DE after taking two hits from him.

The best part is that it costs him nothing to produce the attack, and he can produce 3.5 of them in a second. His high speed is to be thanked for the latter.

Unlike speed from artifacts, the speed granted by divinity affects both movement speed and attack speed. This effect increases with every doubling of10% of total divinity. So from 1 to 100, 200, and finally 300 for a total 3.5 attack speed in a second.

His killing efficiency didn't increase when he reached level 100 because most gods don't need up to 600 Strength in an attack for their heads to explode. 100 would do nicely. But the acquisition of divine crystals increased as the 7 clones loaded up on divinity he got from killing god seeds.

Once all of them had up to 10 divinity in Endurance, the ice wolves at the edge of the ice domain stopped being a threat to them. So all of them could face ice wolves on their own and didn't need Legion-1 to defend for them.

They had to move deeper into the ice domain after clearing out the edge, but it was still easy thanks to Legion-2's steady supply of divinity. When they accumulated enough divine crystals, they joined Legion-2 in hunting god seeds so that they could all reach level 100. Meanwhile, Legion-3 was at the temple working with Warshaw. He has been standing in front of the divine investiture, maintaining contact with it for over 24 hours now.

The divine investiture is the only way to communicate with Oracles since god seeds can't descend to the mortal realm after ascending. But he didn't have to stay at the base of the Steele. As long as he is in the temple, he will be able to access the divine investiture.

However, he chose this position because it grants him a good view of the city and a vantage point to monitor the goings and comings of other god seeds. He has seen a lot because a lot has happened since he entrenched himself in his position.

For one, more gods have ascended and more golden names have appeared on the stele. These have made the temple more crowded, which made it increase in size to accommodate the god seeds. But Gemmis as a whole didn't increase in size, so the increase in population density could be seen clearly.

The second thing he saw and would have noticed even if he wasn't connected to Legion-2's mind is the frequent resurrection of god seeds in front of the temple. The sight was enough to clue him in to the devastating effect that Legion-2's actions were having on the divine populace of Gemmis.

Most of these god seeds that resurrected didn't leave Gemmis. They went up to the various boots in the temple to sit. Their numbers were endless, but the temple accommodated them. It continued to grow taller to create more rooms for the god seeds.

Legion-3 was at the base of the temple, so he saw a lot of things. One particular god seed was reformed in front of the temple in a flash of light. It was a glorious scene displaying the defiance of death by gods, but the sacredness was destroyed as the god seed yelled into the sky.

"Noooooooooooooo!"

"Noooooooo."

"I worked so hard, and you ruined it."

Other god seeds approached her and began conversing. Unlike Legion, they couldn't communicate telepathically, so Legion-3 could hear what they were saying.

Someone asked her, "Were you killed by an arrow?"

The god seed looked up and replied, "Yes."

The same person asked, "Was it one hit?"

"Yes."

"Then it should be the same orc deity."

The god seed that was just killed was surprised. She asked, "You know him."

The person she asked spread his hands wide and said, "Look around you. We all know him."

The god seed was surprised. She asked, "He is that famous?"

"I don't like that word. Let's use notorious. Anyway. When you kill a lot of people, you become notorious."

She asked, "What are we going to do about the orc?"

"Nothing. We sit here and try to gain more believers."

"Why not? Are we to watch as he bullies everyone?"

"It seems you are new here. I have been here for a while. This world is not like the realm of high heaven. It is easy to gain power. But it is also easy to lose it. A single death will lead to the loss of your divinity, while a single victory will lead to the acquisition of half of the power of your enemy. The interaction of these two mechanics makes it important for us to be very careful."

"Divinity is absolute. Skill cannot overcome power at all. Unless you have greater Authority we will all be slaughtered if we go to fight the orc archer. That will only make him stronger. It won't reduce his threat at all. Do you understand?"

The new god seed replied, "I understand. The best thing we can do now is acquire Authority."

The one explaining the situation nodded, "Besides, this is not the first time this has happened. I ascended early, but I was later than the god seed called Crystal Hoard."

The mention of that name drew Legion-3's interest. The newcomer also recognized the name. She said, "Isn't he the first one to become a godling and the highest on the ranking list?"

"That's the one. There have been other powerful godlings, but no one can shake his position. He was just like this orc archer. He was a terror to everyone else. He used the fact that he came early to quickly gain an advantage in divinity. This advantage continued to increase until his momentum became unstoppable."

"No one wanted to leave Gemmis for up to two days. But his terror eventually stopped after he reached level 100. He switched to hunting divine beasts. His great strength made him acquire divine crystals quickly, but it still took some time for him to acquire enough souls to become the first godling."

The newcomer said in understanding, "So this orc archer will also stop when he reaches level 100. Even if we can't increase our Authority, waiting it out is not bad either."

"Now you know. I hope you won't disapoint world god Everstar."

The reminder of the name of a world god made the newcomer become serious. She said, "I don't dare."

Legion-3 saw a lot of these happen. The god seeds refused to leave Gemmis because of the hunting spree going on outside. They are also sharing information due to their mutual sponsors.

Unlike Legion, who got the invitation for this world on their own, most Origin gods couldn't get it. After all, Monarch High Heaven was selling the slots for participation to only world gods. Legion is probably the only one here participating for their own benefits. The other god seeds are here on behalf of world gods. World gods can't participate directly in God's Domain, so they sent Origin gods to do their bidding. These god seeds who are working for the same world gods to acquire Authority are able to work together. They may be competitors, but they have a common backer to allow for a certain level of cooperation.

Speaking of corperation. While Legion-2 and the rest of the clones were wrecking havoc outside the divine city, he has also made a lot of progress with the acquisition of Authority. Of the three tribes close to the Bull's Horn tribe, one of them doesn't have any passive or active religion to indicate the presence of any god. The second one has a god, but the god has ascended. The third tribe has two gods who haven't ascended yet.

Warshaw heard the talks of miracles and confirmed the presence of the two gods personally when she went there to scout. She saw their golden figures fighting several times.

Apparently the two of them are at each other's throats. They hinder the spread of each other's religion, which has stalled them both and prevented them from ascending. It made him chuckle because the two of them don't know just how badly they are wasting each other's time. They are already missing out on divinity, but instead of stocking up on Authority, they are spending their divine energy to kill each other's believers, thereby weakening their overall strength.
