A normal godclad will die instantly if their head is impaled or heart is crushed.
This is the case for godclads from rank 1 to rank 3. But an epic godclad would be able to survive these two kinds of injuries because their bodies have been transford by divine flesh.
The exact chanism of mitigation is to convert spiritual energy into life energy. That way, as long as an epic being has spiritual energy, they can always maintain the function of their bodies.
As long as an epic being is alive, their injury will be able to heal. This healing will take so ti and not every type of injury can be healed, but maintaining the life of the epic godclad is certain.
But Bleed makes it so that a tiny injury will beco fatal for an epic being by draining them of their life energy quickly. Even if Bleed doesn’t lead to their death, it will cause a lot of indirect damage to them.
This ability to cause long term indirect damage is why they had the peculiar advancent requirent for rank 5. But now that they’ve got Bleed divine ability, it will further enhance the age-old adage that one must not let a killer make contact with one’s body.
With this divine ability, the image of a killer is maintained. All a killer will need to kill soone is one touch.
Thanks to the increase in their power and the acquisition of a new divine ability, Legion felt more confident about themselves. The next thing they did was make sure that their ans of escaping was secure and then lie in wait.
They laid in wait like a spider waiting patiently for prey. What’s more, they had already weaved a web. So they were truly like a spider.
As things turned out, they didn’t need to lie in wait for long. Two people attacked the Golden Hamr gang that night.
Both of them were assassins literally and figuratively. The two people were sent to assassinate the leaders of the Golden Hamr gang and both of them were godclads of the pathway of darkness.
The two assassins were epic beings, so they were very powerful and good at stealth. Even so, they made the blunder of tripping over one of the webs that their Web Hamr had laid down.
This mistake and the sense of danger that their Web Hamr felt confird to Legion that they were being attacked. So they ordered their slaves to prepare while they ordered their Web Hamr to trigger her trap.
The trap was the Marrionette web that had been woven all over the base. Their Web Hamr lowered the web from the sky and ensnared the two assassins.
The two assassins beca flies trapped in a web. No matter how they struggled, they couldn’t escape. This is even though they are much stronger than the creator of the web.
An assassin under the cover of darkness will be able to double their power with the rank 2 Shadow Boost divine ability. So rank 4 epic assassins should be able to match rank 5 godclads, and two rank 4 assassins might even be able to kill a rank 6 godclad.
Even so, the two of them couldn’t do anything to save their lives now because they were going up against a fate weaver who was prepared.
It is often said that a prepared fate weaver is one who has control over their fate. This implies that a fate weaver who is prepared is undefeatable.
This implication is not completely true. A killer, for instance, would be able to cut themselves free from the webbing. But in the case of assassins, this implication is very true.
In this case, with two rank 4 assassins, they have no choice but to allow the fate weaver to control them and make them fight each other. They turned into puppets against their will.
The two of them were conscious of their actions and didn’t want to do it, but their bodies weren’t listening to them. So this form of puppetry is different from the one gained through the rank 4 divine ability of the pathway of slavery.
The passive effect of the Marrionette web is just to trap people. The active effect, or the true effect, of this rank 4 divine ability is to use the web to control those who are trapped.
The passive effect doesn’t consu spiritual energy. Once spiritual energy has been consud to set up the web, no extra spiritual energy will be consud to maintain the web.
Only when the fate weaver actively controls the web or activates the web to take control of the bodies of its victims would the fate weaver expend more spiritual energy. So the web can be put up indefinitely.
This is perhaps the scariest part of the divine ability. The web can be set up on the base for a very long ti and reinforced a little bit every day. This way the base will always be prepared for attacks and invasions.
The other passive ability is to assist the fate weaver in activating their three other divine abilities. For example, with the assassins stuck onto the web, it becos very easy for the fate weaver to use predict on them to figure out where they ca from and who sent them.
The Web Hamr did so imdiately. What she discovered was in line with what she discovered earlier when she was investigating one of the new mbers of the gang.
The Web Hamr discovered that after the Golden Hamr gang gained more territory, they employed more mbers to patrol their large territory. One of their nurous enemies used that opportunity to send in a spy.
This enemy was one of their two new neighbors. She wasn’t the only one who sent a spy, though. It is safe to say that every gang sent a spy into the Golden Hamr gang.
The job of this spy was to collect information about the base and the gang and relay it to a certain person. That was all the spy did until two days ago, when he received a ssage to mark the rooms of the leaders of the gang.
The spy herself didn’t know that an attack was imminent, and she didn’t know who she was working for. She only did what she was told to do.
