Chapter 1849: Two Types of Mistakes.
He expected 9 Crowns Endurance to be far below 100,000 since he should have about 50,000 divinity in Endurance and he shouldn't be able to enhance his Endurance with world power due to the fact that he doesn't have a domain of earth and his domain is obviously enhancing his speed.
But things didn't work out like that. 9 Crowns is clearly running and he also didn't take a single scratch from his attacks even though he is going all out. He just can't believe it.
He said again, "This doesn't make sense. It just doesn't make sense."
Then his puppet in God's Domain died and his perception of God's Domain was cut off. He couldn't receive anything from the pillar anymore. It was as if the pillar was nothing but ordinary rock.
Smite died, leaving Feathered Serpent to take the baton. Feathered Serpent had been preparing to use his domain as soon as Smite died, so a new domain encapsulated the area.
It was a domain of water, and it could create sharp water blades to shred everything within it. It was clearly dangerous, but 9 Crowns was already running away.
Feathered Serpent chased after him while going all out to attack him. But 40% of 700,000 is just 280,000. It couldn't overcome 9 Crowns defense of 350,000. Not even one hundred attacks could do this.
This formed a total Endurance of 392,000. It still wasn't enough to protect him completely, so he took a damage of 18,000 with each attack. In one second, he was taking damages worth 252,000. That's already more than the divine energy he wasted on the domain.
He thought that spending 215,000 divine energy in five seconds was a waste, but now he is contemplating giving another go. He had to think really fast about it because, by enhancing his Endurance with Authority, his speed had fallen to a mere 110,000. That is even with the enhancement of his domain.
9 Crowns called behind him, "I've made a mistake. I overestimated you bunch." Feathered Serpent almost choked because he doesn't think 9 Crowns' mistake was bad. It certainly doesn't compare to the mistake he and Smite made by underestimating 9 Crowns. They knew that the 9 crowns was the highest on the Authority ranking, but they didn't know how high his Authority was. Smite expected it to be high. That's why he didn't choose to attack 9 crowns when he was a true god, and he immediately decided to acquire an ally after 9 Crowns became a domain god. But now they have realized that they were very wrong about their estimate.
He is just like Legion-1. Both of them had wrongfully estimated each other's power. If Smite knew that the 9 Crowns' Authority was so high, he would have run at the very first sight instead of scheming. Now Smite has died, leaving him with the problem.
Feathered Serpent cursed. "Fucking Smite. Go all out, he said. Don't let him get away, he said. But how will I get away?"
How he will get away is the matter at hand right now. It is also a serious matter because 9 Crowns is catching up to him. If 9 Crowns got close enough to him, he would be able to use Golden Light and deal devastating damage.
Feathered Serpent knew this, as he had suffered under Golden Light in the past. So he was tempted to ditch his Endurance and enhance his Speed with his Authority. But he knew that wasn't going to be enough.
He knew he was going to be caught eventually and he also knew that he might die before then because if he removed the 280,000 from his Authority protecting his life, then he would die in less than a second.
So he used his domain again. After all, 215,000 every five seconds was better than 252,000 every second.
