GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 2354: Super Thief.

The thief used his rank 4 divine ability to steal Black Axe’s pathway of the illusionist rank 4 Invisibility divine ability, their assassin’s rank 1 Cloak divine ability, their traveler’s rank 2 Seeking Danger divine ability, and their propagator of disorder’s rank 2 Poison Beacon divine ability.

These are just the abilities he has from one pathway. He still has the divine abilities of the pathway of error to help him.

The divine abilities of the pathway of error included rank 1 Lie, rank 2 Confusion, rank 3 Affliction, rank 4 Face Changer, and rank 5 Disable.

To top it off, he also possessed the divine abilities from Legion’s pathway of the telepath. So he will be able to use the rank 2 Mind Read and rank 3 Hypnotize divine abilities to navigate his way through the guard stations.

The first thing the slave did was to take over the identity of one of the guards. The fate weaver helped them pick the right guard to kidnap.

They had to wait a long time for the right guard to appear. But their long wait paid off because the guard that they grabbed happened to be one of the few who had access to the core of the arrays.

This guard they caught wasn’t one of the 10 guarding the station. He came from outside the station and was about to replace one of the other guards in the station who also had access to the core of the arrays.

This guard was coming to start his shift at the station, but Legion waylaid him before he could get to the station. It was a good thing they did this far away from the station since he was a rank 4 guard.

After subduing the guard, the slave thief replaced him and went to the station in his place. He used the Face Changer and the Loe divine abilities to gain access to the core.

Along the way, the Danger Sense divine ability and the frequent advice from their fate weaver helped him avoid doing stupid things that would blow his cover.

He didn’t need to use Danger Sense and the help of the fate weaver for most of the journey because of the Mind Read and Hypnotize divine abilities.

If there was something he didn’t know, he would ask about it or casually mention it. When the other guards thought of the answer in their minds, he would gain the answer through the Mind Read divine ability.

Then he would use his the Hypnotize divine ability to make them forget that he ever asked that question. If there was more than one person at the scene and he couldn’t single out one person to use the Hypnotize divine ability on them, he would just use the Lie divine ability to fool them and gain access to what he wanted.

He had a lot of divine abilities and the support of Legion to use them, so he slowly and surely reached the core of the array.

After he reached the core of the array, he slowly and surely incapacitated everyone at the station. He used the combination of the Lie, Hypnotize, Confusion, Affliction, Mental Armament, Disable, Cloak, and Invisible divine abilities to achieve this.

With the Cloak and Invisible divine abilities, he was able to sneak up to a guard. Then he would use the Hypnotize divine ability to stop them from resisting while he used the Affliction divine ability to weaken them, the Disable divine ability to disable their divine abilities, and finally Mental Armament to silently destroy their minds.

If there was someone capable of resisting even after all of these, he would use the Confusion divine ability to confuse their senses. So they wouldn’t be able to resist effectively.

His actions were made all the easier because of the demarcation of the walls. The walls had split the station into various sections that can be cut off from each other.

This demarcation was done to make it more difficult for an intruder to make it through all the sections. But it also made each section of the station isolated from each other, so if someone was dying in one section, the people in the other sections wouldn’t know about it.

As long as alarms didn’t ring, the other sections remained oblivious to the overall situation in the station. Some of them even sleep and entertain themselves in one way or another in order to pass the time. This made them less alert and easier to sneak up on.

The thief killed everyone slowly and surely, one at a time from the inside out. It was difficult for him to get in, but after getting in and knowing his way around, he was able to get out while also killing every guard along the way.

While all of this was happening, the legend was in a bunker relaxing. It wasn’t the job of the legend to patrol the station. His job was to defend the station from the attacks of powerful enemies.

The legend would only move into action when there was an alarm. Since there was no alarm, there was no need for it to move into action.

The legend remained oblivious as the thief opened the door of the station to let Legion in. Legion waltzed in and sat in the spring of life as if they were on a vacation.

As they soaked in the spring of life and absorbed its whole content into their body, they smacked their lips in satisfaction and said, “This is good.”

Legion-9 shook his head and said, “We didn’t have to use our trump cards, which makes this situation better than good.”

Legion-3 agreed with a nod and said, “That’s true. But this means that this situation is good for both us and Legend.”

Legion-7 chuckled and said, “I know what you mean. What he doesn’t know won’t harm him.”

Legion-1 sighed and said, “For the first time in my life, I believe that ignorance is bliss.”
