GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1350 The Foundation Of Power.



Chapter 1350 The Foundation Of Power.

What Soverick saw provided all of them with an in-depth view of his inner world. They were further intrigued by what they saw. Their inner world appeared to be a machine to them. They are not strangers to the operation of this machine but there's something else going on within them that the world engine within Legion-1 is not doing..

Helios asked Legion-5 in anticipation, "How do you feel? Can you convert cosmic energy into power now?"

"Let me see."

All the clones focused on them. Their strange state ended but it left lasting effects on them. The most obvious change is in their inner world. It has become two spheres.

The outer sphere is the black sphere formed by the crown of Chaos around the inner one which is a multicolored and shifting sphere formed by the fusion of Legion-7 and the dragon heart.

Between the two spheres is a golden ring similar to the one in Legion-1's new world. It is the manifestation of a world engine. It is smaller but it still has similar functions. Even better is that he can control it like an organ.

Legion-5 willed the golden ring into action. He pulled Cosmic energy into it and It answered his call immediately. The cosmic energy disappeared as it was converted into something that can't be seen but can only be felt.

He felt the product of the conversion immediately. It was like he was growing bigger but his size and mass remained the same. He is like a rock lifted up and higher into the sky by cosmic energy. He was not moving and his position hadn't changed but the potential energy within him was increasing rapidly.

Legion-5 spoke. "I feel like I am ascending again. Only weaker."

Soverick observed cooly. "That is a success. It is largely inefficient but you have managed to create Cosmic force."

Legion-7 pointed out excitedly, "This is what we are missing. This is the foundation of power."

Soverick was surprised. He asked uncertainly, "It is?"

He knows of the existence of cosmic force because he has seen its effect in the void universe. But he didn't know it was the foundation of power.

"Yes, it. It is similar to what we experienced. It is the power to change the world. It is the foundation of all forms of power."

Soverick had to agree. "I guess one had to experience it to understand it. It seems power is the ability to change the world without regard for laws and rules. But how much of the world can you change?"

Legion-5 pressed his hand against the world. He tried to push it but it didn't budge. It only rippled slightly. The world rippled in front of him like the surface of a lake. Space and time were distorted in that region but it was smoothened out quickly by the void universe.

They didn't have time to become excited because Legion-5 was smacked in the face by some unseen force. The blow sent him flying and caused him to age visibly.

He has eternal life so the wrinkles disappeared and the weakness in his body was healed. Even so, he felt a residual resistance from the world around him. Just moving around felt more difficult as if friction of the air and ground had suddenly increased.

Legion-5 grumbled, "It seems some things shouldn't be attempted even if you can."

Soverick chuckled, "That's the backlash from the void universe. It doesn't like changes to time."

He shouldn't age since he has eternal life as a Sovereign of law but that backlash sapped him of his time and potential. That's how serious the backlash is.

Legion-5 stood up shakily and complained, "My Will is lacking. If I had a stronger Will I would be able to mobilize more cosmic force."

"You need a world to increase the power of your Will. That means you need the world seed." Soverick stated. "But be thankful that you didn't have enough Will. You also don't have a Supreme law so you would have created too much change and you wouldn't have been able to withstand the backlash. Any more and you could have died. You will need a world to withstand that kind of backlash."

Legion-1 was relieved. "Either way cosmic force will change a lot of things for us."

Soverick doused his enthusiasm, "But we can't control it yet."

Legion-7 is the most excited about the development. He said in anticipation, "We will be able to build the law matrix easier this way. My control of laws has improved tremendously with cosmic force."

Soverick warned them, "But we should be careful with it. We can't withstand the backlash yet. It is a sensitive bomb that can blow up in our face."

Legion-5's anticipation for the world seed increased. "I need to become a world quickly. If I am already this powerful without a world seed, then I can only imagine how powerful I will become with one."

Soverick had to express the warning again, "That's good and all but I recommend that we take things slowly and experiment more with this new power before we raise our hopes."

They are not listening to him. The other clones know to be careful of such a dangerous power but not Legion-5 and Legion-7. They are yearning for it like a rich man who has lost his wealth.

That short experience that they can't remember has changed them in a subtle and unknown way for them to be content with their current weak state of existence. They want to return to that special state where anything is possible.

Cosmic force is a game changer in the very sense of it. It appears to be a force created from the inherent capability of changing the world beyond the power of laws.

It is above divine abilities and concepts. It is like the potential for change. These changes are not ordinary changes like speed and strength but the change in the fundamental aspects of the universe.

A/N: Can you remember when Cosmic force was mentioned in GREED? I'll give you a hint. It has something to do with Ragnarok.
