God's Eyes-Chapter 938 - Trap

Chapter 938 - Trap

'Is that really necessary?!?'

Shaking his head in frustration, Jason felt as if his mind had blanked out.

Exhausted from the earlier fight against three extremely powerful opponents, he deserved to rest for a short while.

That was the basic courtesy Jason had hoped for.

Unfortunately, a battlefield was not generous enough to provide him with some peace.

However, that was something he shouldn't have expected to receive, to begin with.

Because of that, he could only force himself into a defensive stance as he faced his opponents.

Though he was prepared to fight and protect the young Elite of the Yinar race, along with Jennifer with his life, Jason could only ask himself if everything was truly worth it.

'What is the use of a few treasures, if I were to die for them?!'

Yet, he had no time to lament and he cleared his head of the negative thoughts while his defense turned into an iron wall.

From the looks of it, there were numerous wandering souls who were ready to fight with their life on the line.

Yet, the stronger wandering souls seemed to be the most ferocious too.

This was quite disadvantageous for Jason, who was still determined to protect the young Elite of the Yinar race while attempting to clean up the front rows of powerful beasts.

But that was much more difficult than he had initially expected.

As such, it was fortunate when he noticed that the wandering souls were stepping away and retreating inside a smaller cave that was hidden behind a corner within the cave, which others couldn't see well.

The precision of their retreat was odd, and it made Jason halt in his tracks after he had defeated the wandering souls around him.

Following that he decided to help the youths who had been struggling, only to shoot a glance towards the direction where more than a thousand wandering souls had gathered.

Whether this was their safe hideout or a means to initiate a counterattack, Jason didn't know.

However, it was not as if he cared about this, to begin with.

Their mission was to reclaim the Soa crystal mine.

That meant every single beast had to be killed in order to be thrown out of the mine.

As the latter was too difficult to do with wandering souls that numbered in the four digits, Jason didn't even waste his time trying to come up with a way to throw them out, and instead kept his peace of mind.

Instead, he used his Emperor Eyes and divine energy that enhanced it, which in turn helped him clearly perceive all entrances to a secret room.

In fact, the secret room was also connected to a warehouse, which confused him a little bit.

It made no sense, but he simply accepted it for now.

Yet, feeling odd, his gaze swept through the entire secret room, where he was able to perceive many things that he couldn't clearly decipher.

There were all kinds of devices he had never seen before, and without actually seeing it with his bare eyes, Jason was absolutely clueless of what these things actually were.

However, it was just at this moment that a wave of powerful wandering souls emerged from the depth of the Soa crystal mine.

Not even fifteen minutes had passed since the fight over the Soa crystal mine had started, yet Jason got a bad feeling that it was going to turn bloody real soon.

The issues were not the sudden emergence of the wandering souls from the deeper area of the Soa crystal mine.

Rather, his gaze drifted to the devices which the High-Goblin wandering souls seemed to be utilizing.

Seeing them armed to the teeth made Jason feel as if they had truly expected their attack.

But if that were to be the case, at least one Guard of the Soul Monarch would have been around in order to, protect the mine to a bare minimum.

When he gave it another thought, this was probably what irked Jason the most as he witnessed how the High-Goblins moved their arms, demanding the other wandering souls to come closer.

Picking up Soa crystals while moving closer, Jason was only able to see that the fluctuations of the Soa crystals and the wandering souls weakened as they approached the devices.

This made Jason's heart skip a beat, and his aura fluctuated wildly as he realized something that made him freeze in place.

The wandering soul he had just killed with Byakur's razor-sharp blade, slumped to the ground without his notice.

At the same time, his replicas began to ripple only to turn towards Jason before they transformed into pure energy as they were pulled back towards the main host.

Both the replicas filled Jason's body with the remaining energy, making him feel energized.

However, even that didn't help him to endure the sudden cold that swept through his entire body.

Goosebumps erupted on his body, and he was unable to think straight.

There was only one particular thought in his mind, and it scared Jason!

'Why does it feel like a deja-vú??'

A premonition filled his entire body, and all of a sudden his soul world core vibrated, and the golden scorpion that had been engraved on it glowed.

This caused numerous painful memories to flash through his mind.

Yet, instead of allowing his brain to relive the memories, Jason enhanced his vocal cords before he shouted out.

"THIS IS A TRAP!! LEAVE THE MINE!!!"

His voice boomed through the entire Soa crystal cave, bouncing off the walls which further amplified it as every single living being heard him.

Unfortunately, hearing and reacting to one's words were two different things.

In fact, the Specta stage Cultivators didn't believe a word.

Rather than listening to him, they wanted to defeat the beasts they were currently facing.

This was far more important in the process of reclaiming the Soa crystal mine as it would result in an increase in their reputation.

Other than that, the rewards they were bound to receive were enormous, which was the biggest reason for them to accept accomplishing the mission, to begin with.

Thus, nearly everyone had decided to ignore Jason's warning.

Jason felt anger surging up within him, but the decision or mindset of the others was not something he could change just like that.

As such, he thought about it for a moment, forcing his mind to work harder that made a numbing headache spread through his brain.

"IDIOTS, THINK ABOUT IT!! Why the hell would the Soul Monarch abandon a perfectly fine Soa crystal mine?! There is not a single Guard of his to protect the mine, and even the wandering souls are not that powerful.

Rather, they're just a high numbered bunch of cannon fodder!!!"

Initially, the Yinar thought that Jason was proactively trying to distract them from fighting with their highest combat prowess.

Why he would do that was something they didn't know.

Hence, they simply didn't plan on trusting his words earlier.

Yet, the moment they heard his second warning that reverberated through the entire cave, they were able to finally realize that it was the truth.

With their focus dragged away from the Specta stage wandering souls that had distracted them severely, they were even able to notice that most of the wandering souls were truly ordinary beasts that could be replaced easily.

The Soa crystal mine was also much more valuable than they had first assumed, which made everything only weirder.

As such, the youngest of the Cultivators at the Specta stage immediately released his Soul force fluctuations. It rapidly spread through the entire surface area of the mine which made him notice something that caused him to freeze in place.

"Fuck….LEAVE QUICKLY!!"
