Chapter 1310 Body Hopping.
The divine power destroyed the tentacle while the godfire traced the tentacle back to its source. The fire burned everything along the way until it reached the host.
Legion-7 survived the backlash. His soul is stronger than a Supreme Origin god in terms of quantity. Malekite is just a low god, the equivalent of a lord of law. Even though he is weak to her god fire since it is a flame particularly proficient in burning and refining spiritual matter, it still can't threaten him.
He managed to break off the tentacle before the god fire reached him. But the soul of the host didn't survive the backlash. It broke apart and was consumed by the god fire.
Legion-7 complained from within the burning wreckage of his host, "Even a weak god is not easy to hunt. Her godfire didn't even leave me the scraps of the fragmented soul to consume."
Then he smiled to himself. "This is good too. The tougher she is the more I will enjoy ripping her godhood out of her and consuming it. I will take her soul as the interest for the loss of my host."
The host died so he can't stay in the body any longer. There isn't even a body to stay in considering that it is turning into ashes. The soul space collapsed so he had to leave the body to find another host. But he was bombarded by red lightning the moment he came out into the world.
He cursed and shouted at the heavens, "Will you take a break for a moment?"
The heavens didn't listen to him. It was as if they had been preparing for him and had loaded lightning strikes just for the moment he would expose himself. He has given them the chance to make use of their preparations so they bombarded him with lightning immediately.
The lightning was aimed to kill him. He knew that with certainty the moment the first one struck him. The lightning strikes didn't tickle him. It dissolved a part of his soul so he had to rush to find shelter.
Fortunately, there are several living beings around him. He zipped into one of them as fast as he could. He didn't spend up to a second exposed but he was still struck 3 times. It was 3 times too much. His soul lost 20% of its existence so he was hanging just above the cut-off mark for the soul of a Supreme Origin god.
He jumped into the body of the closest host in pain and weakened. This host is a child. It is not even a body refiner so the burden of his existence is far too much for it to bear. The child's body was fragmenting and breaking down by the moment.
"This host won't last up to 10 minutes. I have to find a replacement as soon as possible."
He doesn't want to be forced out into the open by a dead host so he read through the memories of the child and led the child back to his parents. He found them at their house. The law matrix was simmering silently around him all the while. It was waiting for him to slip up and give it another opportunity. He felt that malice vividly.
He grumbled to himself, "I failed reincarnation. I didn't die. I don't deserve this treatment."
He didn't bother to complain to the law matrix because it won't listen. He himself doesn't believe in fairness so instead of wasting time and effort trying to convince the Will of the void universe, he grumbled to himself to release some pent-up frustration while he tried to slow down the rate at which he was killing his current host.
A female Kontinuu rushed towards the child when she saw her, "Where have you been? I told you not to go out. There is a storm destroying the city. It is too dangerous to wander about in this weather."
A strange lightning storm had suddenly approached the city today. Lightning storms ought to be in the sky not close to the ground. The strange lightning storm had moved close to the city and destroyed the walls. It even entered the city and destroyed many houses so everyone had been staying in the house for safety. But this child sneaked out to go see the destroyed houses. That's how she came into contact with Legion-7.
The mother became anxious immediately when she bent to lift her child. "You are so hot. You have a fever. Since when have you been sick?"
The child didn't answer. Legion-7 used the physical contact between mother and child to transfer himself into the mother. He shifted one soul space for another without exposing himself to the law matrix. So there was no lightning punishment.
The child didn't recover when he left her. She died immediately. As for the mother, she became silent immediately. Her anxiety about the sickness of her child disappeared and her eyes glazed over. She took the dead child in her arms into their house mechanically.
Legion-7 thought to himself with a mental sigh, "This host is weak too. Fortunately, the father of the child is a mana entity. I can use him in the meantime."
The mother is a vitality core stage refiner but she is not good enough. She is dying quickly too. She won't last up to a day. So Legion-7 began planning for his next host immediately.
He didn't have to wait for long. The father came home from a long day at work. He found his wife sitting with a frozen look on her face. His heart dropped immediately. It is because that's the look his wife always wears whenever she is angry.
"Have I done something wrong?" He asked himself.
Then he approached his wife. He asked gently, "What's wrong sweet pie?"
His gentle expression froze immediately when his hand made contact with his wife's exposed shoulder. Legion-7 had changed the host to the father quickly.
