Chapter 1889: Pretending To Prepare For War.
At first he was happy to hear that. But then his concern for the Heavenly Corporation turned into fear. However, that didn't stop him and many others from rushing into God's Domain to claim power for themselves.
Taylor shook his head thinking about it. Then he returned to his maintenance pod and logged back into God's Domain with the conviction needed to perform genocide on humans if necessary.
Meanwhile, in God's Domain, Legion-1 had finally managed to track down the headquarters of the human leadership in charge of the fortress. He found them at a good time too. They were having a meeting about the upcoming battle with the orcs.
A commander was sitting at the head of the round table. He was dressed in an ostentatious armor. It probably looked good to other humans, but Legion-1 didn't care about how it looked. The only thing that mattered to him was that it was a level 21 mortal armor.
That means it will add 20 points to his constitution used only for defense against attacks. It also means that if the armor were sacrificed to him, it would turn into a trash divine armor that will add 21 divinity to his Endurance.
So in his opinion, the armor is rubbish. Yet, it is the best piece of equipment any of the humans are wearing. Meanwhile, he has priests donned with several divine artifacts. It made him sneer in disdain as he watched the silly humans pretend to be ready for war.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The commander was seated at the table with some other officers in charge of the defense of the fortress. These officers were also wearing armor. They looked like knights preparing to defend their beloved realm.
His lips curled into a sneer. "How cute."
He didn't think they were men. To him, they look like children playing pretend in a sand castle.
They are an average of level 15, so it will take 15 divine energy to kill each one of them. Since they are 6, it will cost him 90 divine energy to kill all of them. That isn't even enough for him to use one of his newly upgraded divine spells.
But he didn't do that. It is because he knows that humans are very resilient and stubborn. This is especially so for soldiers that care about their home. They will appoint new leaders soon.
The new leaders might be more or less effective than the old ones. Either way, removing the leaders like this will only strike fear into the hearts of the army.
Besides, he doesn't need to eliminate their leaders because victory is already set for him. It all started because the humans rejected the gods that were assigned to them.
The orcs were not the only ones whom gods came to. The humans also received God's, but they refused to believe in the gods. They chose to believe more in the power of their gunpowder.
Gunpowder has been the foundation of their power for many years. It is how level 15 beings of a race with a potential of 20 managed to beat off orcs with a potential of 50.
Their nobles also refused to let go of their power, so they refused their gods. This meant they couldn't gain access to mana and would remain weak while the Orcs were growing stronger every day.
It also meant that the human gods he found during his routine harassment of his enemies turned out to be weak. The rejection of the humans made it easy for him to kill their oracles and priests.
So not only do these soldiers not have access to mana currently, they also won't be getting any assistance from their gods. All they have to rely on is their gunpowder.
That is already enough to ascertain their defeat. Not only do the orcs have greater levels, but they have also reached an average of tier 2 with a maximum mana boost of 400% after more than ten years of access to Mana.
