GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1121 Planning For The Future.

Legion-7 agreed, "Rest is good. Legion-5 has something important he needs my help with."

"I also have work to do here," Soverick said as he focused his eyes on the world-ender within their world engine. 

"Let's hurry up though. I want to use the perpetuation engine as soon as possible." The tree father said. 

They are all excited to finally put the world engine to use. The first sage gave Soverick the World engine without thinking he would be able to use it soon. The first sage was wrong. They will show him just how wrong he was. 

They will rest and make some preparations. Then they will begin building one of nine law matrixes. Soverick has changed his plan for the world fragment that they want to build. He wants something that will be easy to upgrade in the future with 9 supreme laws. 

This kind of adaptability is important since the world engine and the Kickstarter will be dismantled in the future. If they are to upgrade it, then it must work in tune with them when they have achieved Unity. 

He intends for them to build each law matrix individually and around the world engine. Now that they have a world engine running, it can act as the foundation for the law matrix so they don't need to build it within the world engine and struggle to keep it stable at every point. 

This arrangement will allow for controlled interaction between the law matrixes if needed and also bestow the world fragment much-needed adaptation and reliability in case of errors. 

The world engine is a giant spherical object. It spans about 100 kilometers in diameter. The first law matrix will be in the form of a band of interwoven laws. In other words, it will be in the form of a loop around the world engine. All 9 law matrixes will form a loop around the world engine. 

The laws that make up the law matrixes are not important. Only stability, integrity, strength, and continuity are important. But since there will be a point of intersection where all 9 law matrixes meet, it has become important to make all the laws similar and their configurations identical so that there won't be any rejection between them. This requires a lot of planning before they can even attempt to build it. 

"You were right. This is not going to be easy." Legion-7 said after discovering Soverick's plan for the world fragment, "How long do you think it will take."

"It will take at least 10 times the amount of time we planned for a single law matrix and upwards of 32 times if we come across problems along the way. So at least 10,000 years and upwards of 30,000 years."

The tree father said, "That is without the time needed for planning."

"Right." Soverick agreed. "But the time could be shorter if Legion-5 succeeds with his project. Things should become easier then."

Legion-7 stated, "Or it could take longer because you want to make something more difficult."

"Maybe." Soverick didn't deny it. "But it shouldn't reach up to 50,000 years."

It will be easy to build each law matrix separately. With the world engine already here, they have a foundation. So they will just be stacking fragments of laws in a 4-dimensional state. 

But now they can't stack just any law fragments in any way they want. They have to repeat the exact law fragments they used in the first one and in the exact same format 9 times in a row without making any mistakes. It is not going to be easy and it won't be quick either.

On the other hand, Legion-5's success could make things easier or more difficult. After all, no one knows if he can achieve what the dragon ancestor was born with.

If he does succeed and they manage to get the shards of power under control, then they would have enough power to face a demon god like CARNAGE alone instead of leaking the coordinates of the plane to its rival WRATH. 

--------THE FIRST SAGE

The first sage felt it when the first collapse of space occurred. There was no way he couldn't feel it. Every manifestation of his Supreme law is a part of his body so there was no way he wouldn't feel one of his hands being crushed in a vice. The separation of time and space couldn't black that painful perception. 

He was understandably startled by the development. So he used his Supreme law to divine the situation. The full picture was painted being painted in his mind. Then his perception of the world hit a roadblock. The picture being painted in his mind became blurry as if he was looking at it through a fog from a very far distance. 

"What is going on?" He asked himself. 

He had to ask that question because the answers didn't make sense. He knows that a part of his body is being crushed. That is plausible in the void universe. Anything could happen. 

He also knows that the part of his body that is being crushed is in contact with a world-ender. That much is clear to him and despite the fact that it is unlikely, it is possible. The pain of the world ender is also clear to him. It rings loud and clear through the fog blocking his sight. 

He even knows that the fog blocking his perception is a difference in the coefficients of time and space. To be specific, the time is swinging back and forth like a pendulum while the space is expanding and shrinking like a balloon. 

All of these are clear to him. Individually, they make sense. World gods like him are capable of limited manipulation of cosmic forces of the universe and they are capable of warping those cosmic forces to their extremes within their world.

But it is highly likely that his supreme law would coincidentally find itself in the inner world of a world god together with a world ender and the two of them HAPPENED to be smashed against each other. So this must be a scheme.
