Chapter 933 Omega Vs Alpha.

A 2,660% boost is something that other Omegas will be proud of. They will marvel that he managed to acquire this much in his lifetime. They might just lose their minds if they know that he accomplished this much in less than 100 years.

Their reaction will be understandable. After all, even with his 81% death essence extraction efficiency, which is very high, he had to extract death essence from approximately 5,000,000 animals. He couldn't have killed that much on his own even if he was killing at all times. That's the advantage of having a pack working for you.

As for other Omegas with lesser extraction efficiency, they will need to kill above 8,000,000 for them to achieve what he has. They can't achieve it because most of them don't have a large pack to rely on. It will be a miracle if they achieve what he has achieved in their lifetime of 200 years.

His arrangement also brings with it several disadvantages. The major disadvantage is the reduction in death essence that he gets from the offering because he didn't directly kill the animals himself. 

Then there is the further reduction due to the delay in the extraction of death essence. Those he blesses have to wait hours before meeting him and their offering will be long dead even before they bring it to him. This reduced the efficiency of his extraction of death essence to 53.2%.

The third factor that limits how much power he gets from the offering is their strength. The offerings are at best at the Vitality core stage. He is a Mana entity so their death essence is less useful to him. Mana entities are rare around here so it wouldn't do if he went to kill on his own. 

All of this reduces the boost he gets from the offerings but it is much better than him hunting himself. Even if he hunts on his own and extracts with the highest efficiency of 81%, he will need to kill 3,280,000 animals to achieve what he has currently achieved. 

That is not efficient at all. Plus he would have drawn the attention of the overlords of the plane if he was responsible for so many deaths. He didn't do that. He stayed low and worked diligently. His reward for bus diligence is that he can strengthen a single stat to 26 times its original power. That is a tremendous boost. But it isn't enough for him. 

He is a greedy person. Nothing will be enough for him if he can get more and get away with getting more. But the major reason why his current achievement is not enough for him showed up when it was nightfall. 

He was attending to someone when he felt a tornado of Mana rushing towards him. It brought an ominous feeling as if a disaster is about to strike or that a storm is brewing. He wasn't alarmed by the feeling. He has felt it occasionally so he is familiar with it. He calmly finished with the person he is blessing. Then he left his shelter to see his visitor.

He found the pack leader standing at the edge of his peak overlooking the tribe. His brown fur ruffled silently in the wind. Ragnarok can see that the wind is not ordinary. It is a cyclone of Mana surrounding the pack leader. 

Sauron had his arms folded on his chest like a war god. He is as tall as ever but he hasn't grown taller over the years. So he and Ragnarok are about the same height now. Ragnarok is not intimidated because of his height anymore but he is still wary of Sauron. Sauron hasn't grown taller but he has grown much stronger over the years.

Ragnarok approached him calmly. He greeted him, "Welcome to my abode, Pack Leader."

He didn't bow in greeting to Sauron. Sauron is much stronger than him for sure. The pack leader has a power boost of at least 10,000% so he can improve a stat by 100 times. That is more than Ragnarok's boost and his base stat, but that doesn't mean he has to bow. Technically, they are equals in the hierarchy so there's no need for a show of deference between them.

Sauron turned to him and smiled. "My wonderful shaman. You're my lucky star. Have I ever told you that?"

"Yes. You say that every time we meet." He replied.

Sauron nodded. "Yes. I believe that what's important has to be said repeatedly."

"I am honored by the high praise."

Sauron shook his head. "You deserve it. Today's easy victory is mostly due to you. The Grizzly Claw pack surrendered very early into the fight. My warriors are stronger than theirs and it became pretty obvious quickly that they would lose if they continued to fight and they would lose badly."

Ragnarok remained modest. "I am glad to hear that. I was only doing what's best for the pack."

"Do you know that I didn't lose a single warrior today? There were some wounded but I didn't lose a single life. Instead, I gained an entire pack for myself without a single loss. This is all thanks to you." Sauron laughed merrily at his success.

Ragnarok on the other hand remained stoic. "I was just doing my job. But I appreciate that my efforts have been noticed."

He was doing his job and it was for his own benefit too. It wouldn't do for his hunting manpower to be reduced. A fall in the power of the pack means a reduction in the offering brought to him. That is a very important reason to see that the pack prospers. But it still left a bad taste on his tongue. 

His blessings have had a tremendous effect on the iron fur pack. The warriors became stronger and the life expectancy of the nameless grew. The birth rate increased exponentially and the death rate fell precipitously. There was no limit to population expansion for the pack because the environment became easy to subdue and overcome.

All of this worked to strengthen both Ragnarok and Sauron over the years. What's worse is that Sauron got a larger boost from it than him. A 10,000% boost is what an Alpha of Alphas gets from a pack that is reaching a million in number.
