Chapter 1240 Offense And Defense.
They decided on his fifth divine ability. The Liquid graviton divine ability is from a race of special earth elementals. They live in an environment with a high gravity so their bodies adapted to it. The usual solid form of earth elementals was ditched for a special dense fluid state that can withstand pressure and impacts.
Its major weakness is that it is very heavy so anyone that possesses it will become very slow. Its second weakness is that it consumes a lot of energy to maintain. The density of the liquid graviton is achieved at a very high cost in Origin energy. Origin gods can handle the energy requirements but it is highly restrictive to Sovereign Supreme Beasts.
Its third weakness is that it doesn't fuse with any divine ability that doesn't have the law of earth in it. The best way to use it is to fuse it with a post-origin dragon heart with earth affinity or a pre-origin dragon heart without any affinity and high compatibility. But even that combination makes Supreme beasts heavy and slow.
That weakness cannot be rectified easily because the divine ability for speed that is earth-based is even more expensive than it. So this makes it very unpopular despite its defense.
It should be a great divine ability if not for the fact that it makes Warriors too slow and lacks compatibility with other powerful divine abilities. All of its weaknesses make it cost a cheap 30 points despite the fact that it has the strongest defense for warriors.
They decided to get it because it fits their goal for a powerful defense and if combined with the Origin diamond divine ability which can turn powerful defense into a powerful means of attack then the Liquid graviton will be put to great use.
They went through more divine abilities and planned for Legion-5's path as an indestructible being that could take a beating. They were able to settle on some divine abilities but they also made sure to leave two slots open for his plan to become a world god without a Supreme law.
Legion isn't sure if he will be able to gain the power of a world without becoming a world god but they have something that can substitute for a supreme law which is Legion-7 and a dragon heart that can substitute for a world engine if upgraded with the necessary abilities. So why not try and see what will happen if they add a world seed into the mix?
Legion-5 finished their planning session with some objectives that must be accomplished. "The rest of the rite of passage can be lost after we have gotten the needed divine abilities but the authority of a Celestial Supreme has to be acquired. We need it and Aeternus's help to strengthen my dragon heart and become able to use cosmic energy too."
Legion-7 suggested, "We should probably test the feasibility of your plan first before we make any more commitments."
Legion-5 accepted the advice. "Hmm. You make a good point. Let's start with the godhood of a great god then. And maybe some other items with divinity to test my compatibility."
Legion-9 interjected, "It better be compatible or my efforts will go to waste."
Legion-5 tried to reassure him, "It will be compatible. Trust me. Origin weapons are bad for me but I can still fuse with them. Divinity should be better since it likes to fuse with living things. You as a Celestial should know this."
But Legion-9 was not convinced. "You know what. Maybe you should perform the test before I risk my Authority in this scheme of yours."
"I am not asking for your life. I just want you to help me create the perfect demigod for me to steal its divine ability."
"That right there is asking for my life. You know how dangerous the child of a Celestial can become. We could be risking my whole Authority if anything goes wrong. And a lot of things can go wrong. I have a lot of enemies looking for weaknesses in me. They will pounce if they smell any weakness. A demigod is a big weakness."
Helios joined in too. "The Tree Father makes a good point. Besides, there is no harm in waiting until we see some results from your testing."
Legion-5 had to agree. "Fine. We will test with the godhood of a great god. Then you can start on your end."
They are of one mind but no one ones to give up their goal for the other and Legion as a whole doesn't want to give up any individual goal. They want everything. Only when there is a greater benefit for Legion would they want to make sacrifices.
Asking the Tree Father to make a demigod is one such sacrifice. The tree father was resistant to sharing his power and making himself vulnerable just like Legion-5 didn't want to give up more slots for Legion-7's safety. But Legion-5 finally decided to give up the slots after Legion-7 proved his usefulness and so will the Tree Father after Legion-6 proves that his plan to become a world god without a Supreme law is not a wild goose chase.
Legion-7 interjected to assure them, "Getting the godhood of a great god shouldn't be difficult. My god-hunting plan won't work on the Celestial Supreme and it might not even work on normal Celestials but great gods should be easy to nab."
Legion-5 nodded. "It is too bad that there is no good god-
slaying divine ability for us to use."
Legion-7 scoffed. "You're being greedy. I am your god-slaying divine ability. I am the best you can get without being an Origin god."
Legion-5 chuckled. "Yes yes. I am greedy but I can't help my nature."
Legion-7 is good enough even though he is currently not strong enough to hunt Celestials. That will wait until they become Origin gods. This is because the Authority of Celestials is too strong to fight without a concept.
