God's Eyes

Through his Emperor Eyes, Jason could see the energy fluctuations of more than 300 assassins which caused him to tap on Jennifer's shoulder.

She had been deep in thoughts, and only through Jason's tap did she regain her senses.

With her attention back on the current situation, she was able to fully focus on everything that was happening around her once again.

As such, she could sense the energy fluctuations of the presumed assassins only a few moments later as they released their concealment.

Jason was able to see everything much earlier than she could perceive it, thus they were fully prepared even before the Assassins would storm inside the Manor.

However, that was not exactly what happened as Jason suddenly shouted out.

"Fuck!"

At that moment, the two assassins at the Specta stage released their energy before utilising their respective affinity to conjure hundreds of huge light and darkness spears.

It took them only a few seconds to prepare themselves and once everything was completed, they were just about to attack, when a huge stream of energy was unleashed from the inside of the Manor.

Luna had noticed what the Specta stage assassins were about to do, and she launched a counterattack immediately.

She activated the building's defensive mechanism, erecting a huge shield that was strong enough to deflect the spears that were thrown towards the Manor.

The shield had barely been constructed as the attacks were launched, which caused Jason to sigh in relief.

A moment later, the City Lord left the Manor, using both of her affinities to initiate a large-scale attack on the weaker assassins.

This was something the perpetrators had already expected which made both the Aeus and Devir powerhouses act even before Luna was able to eliminate the threat of the 300 assassins.

While the Devir powerhouse attacked Luna, pressuring her, the Aeus powerhouse protected the remaining Assassins from Luna's attacks that went astray.

Due to this, the City Lord realised that it was not possible for her to protect Jennifer and the rest from the other assassins.

As such, the least she could do was to force the other two powerhouses away from the manor, preventing them from oppressing or possibly even killing the others inside the building.

This was extremely important because even a single attack that went astray could decimate anyone inside the Manor, killing the defenseless victim on the spot.

In a single glance, the City Lord had been able to determine the strength of her opponents which made her believe that the other side had planned to take her away from the Manor, since the beginning. Separating her from her stronghold appeared to be the assassin's strategy.

Additionally, it also looked like the assassins had been assigned specific opponents, with roughly the same cultivation base of those they would have to attack.

The City Lord had predicted this already and a small part of her was relieved to think that her subordinates were not in a dire need of her help, they could fight opponents of roughly the same strength.

Hence, she decided to take her fight away from the Manor, thinking that her decision was the best to secure everyone inside the Manor.

Being forced to fight against more than 10 opponents at once was already a hassle, but knowing that their presumed strength was at par with the others made her feel better than thinking that the assassins would certainly kill everyone owing to their high strength.

As such, the biggest external threat would be her attacks going astray because of the other two Specta stage powerhouses.

With that in mind, the three beings at the Specta stage left the manor, giving the assassins, Jason, Jennifer, and the rest a free reign to start a carnage.

The only issue the City Lord had was Jason, and the amount of recently advanced Prismar stage beings, which made her throw a single glance at him before leaving.

'I hope I don't think too highly of him….otherwise, I will have to listen to some complaints if something were to happen to Jason…What a nuisance…'

In the short time that had passed in which the City Lord and the other two Specta stage powerhouses had attacked their respective targeted opponents, Jason had already investigated the exact strength of all the infiltrators.

With them making no efforts to conceal their power, it was much easier for him to evaluate their exact cultivation base, special traits, and other unique features properly.

There were only a few things he was unable to see, but those couldn't be considered as indicators of his opponents' strength.

As such, everything in his sight could be used properly, giving him the chance to simultaneously report everything to Jennifer.

While Jason had been evaluating the opponents' strength, Jennifer had listened to his words, before reporting every extraordinary trait of specific individuals to the others.

In the end, Jason's evaluation that happened in an extremely short amount of time could be properly utilized in order to give everyone a rough understanding of the situation.

During the short period in which Jason completed his evaluation, the assassins that included only Aeus and Devirs, without a single Manyr in sight, had attacked the shield.

Weakened by the onslaught of attacks by the Specta stage assassins, the shield's energy was quickly depleted. Cracks began to appear in it and the shield fell apart the moment Jason finished his evaluation.

During the following seconds, Jennifer had also completed relaying everything Jason had figured out to the others, barely giving her enough time to focus on the few hundred assassins.

Finally being able to storm through the Manor, their battle intent was perceivable even though the building's thick walls.

They released their respective energy currents and rushed through the Manor without fearing the presence of any possible traps.

At that moment, the manor's first trap was about to go off, only for the frontmost Aeus and Devirs to activate some devices.

When Shane saw this, he raised his right eyebrow, only to turn towards Jennifer as he remarked,

"They can block the usage of runes using some devices!"

His voice was tinged with a little worry.

However, that was mostly because he was concerned about the safety of the others.

Jason was confident in his own abilities, and even after he had clearly seen the number of newly advanced Prismar stage beings, he didn't show any signs of being concerned about himself.

That was simply because he didn't feel the same as Jennifer when she heard him.

"Wait…so that means we cannot even use one-time protection equipment or attack items?" She immediately asked, fully understanding Jason's concern.

Jennifer assumed that he was concerned about his safety, but even if that was not the case, her worry for the safety of the others caused her to turn in the direction of her opponents.

"I will go! The others don't know that their protective equipment is not working!!"

Jason found this reasonable to a certain extent, but instead of allowing her to leave recklessly, he suggested an alternate way.

"The Assassins are already about to enter the second floor. Send a voice transmission and defeat your opponents before doing anything else!"

Halting in her tracks, she realised that her worry almost made her act recklessly.

Following Jason's advice, Jennifer quickly informed everyone about what Jason had just reported to her, only to instinctively jump backward the moment she felt something.

It was at that moment, that the reinforced wooden door was dislodged out of its frame and blown to pieces as several pairs of eyes stared at both Jason and Jennifer.

Seeing this, they immediately knew that their worry about the others had to be moved to the back of their priority list because their own survival was the most important!
