God's Eyes Chapter 375 - Abandoned

Staring through the wall, Jason wanted to watch the whole event that occurred within the underground hall next to the mana vein as the tension seemed to increase with every moment passing.
Suo's soul world amplification had been completely nullified through the petrification serpent's weakening curse!
Adding the petrification curse the petrification serpent utilized to target Suo, his body was also unable to move a single inch.
This sensation remained only for a short while because the petrification serpent averted its gaze to the other young prodigies with which it did the exact same.
In the end, the weakening curse would be in effect for several hours while the petrification curse would either wear off after a few seconds or remain permanent.
The latter would only happen if one was too weak, unable to prevent being petrified by the petrification curse.
In that case, the curse would remain forever!
Targeting multiple several hundred targets at once with its weakening curse, the petrification serpent had to use up a large margin of its stored mana.
Adding the mana consumption while fighting against other, strong and cursed beasts in addition to the fact that it had to protect the eggs within her body, by not letting itself be hit at or injured at certain areas, the petrification serpent was slowly becoming weaker.
The shallow injuries on its body increased and Jason could tell that it was at a huge disadvantage!
Only its petrification curse was preventing any beast from approaching it too close as it didn't consume much mana.
One could compare the petrification curse to a mutation to the petrification serpent's eyes. It was not exactly that but the petrification serpent's petrification curse was similar to Jason's mana eyes at a certain point.
His mana eyes had a passive effect to see the mana flow, consistently. Furthermore, there were multiple effects Jason could use with his mana eyes like the [abyss effect] and the ability to perceive different colors enveloping animate and inanimate things, showing their potential and quality.
Through these multiple abilities, Jason was able to comprehend that his unique mana eyes were similar to the petrification curse that cursed the petrification serpent's eyes.
There was also a weakened curse that was passively released, while the real weakening curse had to be actively activated.
When Jason saw this he became even more interested in the petrification serpent, only to shake his head when he saw how fast, strong, and ferocious it was.
The petrification serpent had already sustained severe injuries next to the shallow wounds, but it was still able to fight against two of the most terrifying ranked beasts in the Mythic Garden and a few additional Lowest Lique stage beasts.
They were fighting against each other, but from Jason's perspective, it looked like most beasts were targeting the petrification serpent.
This was not really surprising because the petrification serpent's weakening curse was extremely strong and it was even able to take on the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf's destructive curse with a blink of its eyes.
It was as if the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf's destructive curse was nothing against the petrification serpent that began to wreak havoc once it noticed that its situation began to worsen.
Suo and his team were still standing between the tunnel they had emerged from a few minutes before and the cavern hall, not knowing what they should do against such terrifying beasts.
It was not that there were only three terrifying beasts, but also several Crimson-death Hell spiders and more than three hundred other cursed Lowest Lique stage beasts with a few dozen liquefied mana drops.
At that sight, one couldn't help but be scared!
The surrounding area of the small, exposed mana vein was just too terrifying and Jason was sure that he wouldn't approach the exposed mana vein directly.
After more than ten minutes passed, the petrification serpent's combat prowess had drastically decreased, and it was most likely scared that the eggs within it might be damaged if it were to continue fighting, that it started to retreat.
Escaping through a tunnel, the petrification serpent didn't even notice that it slithered past Suo and his team which it had cursed only a few minutes prior.
Meanwhile, Suo and the others' stiffened as the petrification serpent used the tunnel they had come from.
Suddenly someone among Suo's group mumbled
"Isn't it going to encounter the others we left in the cavern hall?"
Suo couldn't help but nod his head, but rather than caring about the others he thought that their own situation was not favorable and his eyes began to quiver in fear.
When the petrification serpent began to flee, the beasts that attacked it started to pursue it, only to halt when the petrification serpent had brushed past Suo and the others.
Escaping from the cavern hall everyone wanted to remain to absorb the thick and pure mana radiating from the exposed mana vein, the other beasts couldn't help but feel that they had to defeat the uninjured, energetic newly arrived opponents, first.
As such, several dozen beasts roared out, showing their desire to attack Suo and his team as they charged towards them.
Everyone's legs trembled for a moment and Suo was the first to regain his composure.
However, instead of helping the others, he turned towards the cavern tunnel which the petrification serpent had used as he started to run into it, abandoning his other team members.
When Jason saw this he couldn't help but frown, but if he were to be honest, it was not like this reaction was surprising as it came from Suo, whom he found to be extremely sly.
While the trembling prodigies tried to regain their composure in order to run away from several dozen Low Lique stage beasts, Jason only saw how they were torn apart which caused him to sigh deeply.
Averting his gaze towards the hall where the remaining young prodigies were still inside, he couldn't help but hope that the petrification serpent would continue fleeing instead of wasting its time by killing everyone in the cavern hall it was about to emerge in.
The young prodigies in said cavern hall heard that something was wrong and unsheathed their weapons.
However, when they saw the petrification serpent that had sustained hundreds of light and a few severe injuries, the young prodigies couldn't help but shiver for a moment.
Everyone's soul world amplification vanished in the blink of an eye as the petrification serpent brushed past them.
It ignored their whole existence because it thought that multiple cursed Low and Lowest ranked Lique stage beasts were pursuing it.
As such, every second was precious.
When Jason saw this he sighed in relief before he turned around to Isga and Milan who were looking in the direction of the entrance hall they left a few minutes ago.
"Nothing happened there. The petrification serpent fled from the battlefield because there were too many strong beasts targeting it. However, it didn't injure a single prodigy cause it was too occupied with its own business"
Smiling lightly, Jason could see that Isga and Milan were confused before they sighed in relief.
Once he had said this, Jason decided that it was time for him to look out for a path towards the outer branches of the exposed mana vein.
He could already tell that the huge and terrifying battlefield with Lowest and Low Lique stage beasts, that cursed each other with all kinds of horrific curses, was about to come to an end.
Every beast inside the surrounding area of the exposed mana vein was injured and Jason began to wonder if the remaining young prodigies will be able to take care of everything when he saw that multiple more, new, uninjured beasts arrived.
"That's bad fortune," He mumbled when he saw this.
However, even worse was that the young prodigies who heard all kinds of painful roars and screamed echoing through the cavern hall were sure of the fact that it was finally their time to shine.
Rushing through the cavern tunnel from which Suo emerged, everything turned into a chaotic situation filled with fear, greed as Jason lost interest in the others.
"Will you two come with me to look out for a reclusive and secure area where we can absorb mana from one branch of the exposed mana vein??"
