GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1526 Finishing Touches.

Chapter 1526 Finishing Touches.

All of the clones are in Legion-1's inner world. Even their new clone is with them, so there are eight physical beings in the inner world. They all look alike, except Legion-3.

They are white, featureless, and have a white crown on their heads. Legion-3 on the other hand, is completely black. If not for the white crown on his head that looks like a halo, his glowing golden horns, and his golden eyes, he would be indistinguishable from the darkness of the night.

The eight of them surround the law matrix that they have spent more than 50,000 years building. It is a shimmering metaphysical structure of interwoven layers created with threads of different colors of solidified light. So it looks like a sphere created with the fusion of different layers of glass, with each of the layers etched with different colors.

Within the metaphysical sphere is the world engine. It is a golden band of light in the form of a sphere. Within the world engine is the Kickstarter.

The Kickstarter can't be seen because it is collapsing and reassembling too fast. But if it were frozen, one would see two black and white rings hooked together at the edge to form the infinity symbol. The black and white rings contain a world-ender and a world fragment, respectively.

Outside the multilayered, multicolored metaphysical sphere are nine bands of multicolored light. These bands of light are extensions of the metaphysical sphere. They are also the cornerstones of the law matrix. It is through them that Legion will utilize the power of the world fragment.

The law matrix is complete, but the world fragment isn't yet. It lacks a burden or the source of Supreme power, so it is going out of control and pressuring Legion-1's inner world.

It is as if they have built a spring to hold up the world, and the spring is compressed. Without the world to hold up, it is trying to release the potential energy within it by extending.

It is like an expanding ballon. It wants to get bigger since there is nothing to hold it back. Unfortunately, Legion can't allow that, or Legion-1's inner world will explode.

That's why they are all surrounding it. They are trying to provide the necessary pressure needed to keep it from expanding further. Things would be easier if they had a Supreme Law to control the world fragment. Unfortunately, they don't have that, so they have to find a good enough burden for the world fragment. All of them surround the law matrix and apply pressure to it with their minds. Their hands have formed into large tentacles so that they can hold hands around the incomplete world fragment and seal it.

What they are doing is straining the world fragment and preventing it from expanding. However, they are losing the fight with the law matrix, as seen by the fact that they are being gradually pushed away from the metaphysical sphere. Their white tentacle hands were forced to stretch further for them to contain it.

Legion-7 said, "This wouldn't have happened had Soverick not made this too strong."

He is the only one not part of the ring to contain the world fragment, but that doesn't mean he is lazying about. He is doing a lot of work from within the world fragment itself.

He is spiritual and had a part in building the law matrix, so he can suppress it from within. However, despite how powerful his soul is, he is also failing to suppress the law matrix of the world fragment from expanding. It tells of the strength of what they have built.

Soverick was unapologetic about it. He said, "This is good. It will be able to support the shards of power better this way. It is better if it is too strong than if it is too weak."

The tree father urged them, "Just do it already. We can't do this forever."

Legion-7 assented, "I am almost done aligning with it."

He has been saying that for a while now, but he hasn't succeeded. It should have been easy to align with the law matrix, even though there are nine cornerstones. But the law matrix is expanding, so the cornerstones are shifting too, making things difficult for Legion-7.

Finally, he managed to succeed. He said, "There. I've got it."

A ghostly phantom of a multicolored tentacled spiritual entity appeared from within all of them and above the incomplete world fragment. This phantom is like a projection from within all of them. But it can interact with the world despite its seemingly intangible state.

The phantom settled into the sphere. This action caused the nine bands of light to begin rotating. Their speed was slow at first, but it increased very quickly. This caused the power of the law matrix to increase, and the subsequent pressure on the eight of them to increase exponentially.

Soverick acted next without being told to do so. His body broke apart, which reduced the number of clones suppressing the law matrix to 7. The remaining seven had to close the circle and continue to keep the pressure on the growing law matrix. This was already difficult to do when they were 8 and before the law matrix began active operation. At this point, they are about to collapse.

It is perfectly normal that they are facing this much stress from preventing a law matrix from doing what it wants to do in its natural state. Any law matrix that can exist must be able to push aside the law matrix of the void universe. This law matrix can do so, but it is stronger than a normal law matrix, so it wants to occupy more space. Unfortunately, Legion-1's inner world is too small to allow it to expand fully.

This problem is because they can't control the law matrix. They didn't create it with their supreme law, and they certainly can't control its foundation, the world engine.
