God's Eyes (Web Novel)

Jason looked at a large pack of two-star scaled wolves and smiled brightly.

The pack had at least 15 scaled wolves but Jason only looked at a certain wolf which was larger compared to its brethren.

Its scales looked tougher and they shined brighter but the most important fact was the color the scaled wolf radiated.

While its brethren didn´t even radiate a color this one wolf, in particular, radiated a light-grey color and Jason knew from his own experience in the beast pagoda that this light-grey meant its potential was at the evolved rank.

Jason had never imagined that he would find such a treasure in a one-star wild zone.

Smiling from ear to ear, Jason took out an arrow and it was now time to hunt a large group of scaled wolves!

He knew that his bow would only be able to shoot arrows that we're able to pierce through the scales slightly but this would be enough as his arrows were coated in the paralysis potion he purchased previously.

Jason was not a good archer as today was his first time to even hold a bow but after he noticed that his eyes remembered roughly the height he had to take to hit a target 20 meters away, he became confident.

The pack of scaled wolves hadn't noticed Jason until now and it was time for him to get closer.

Luckily there were some bushes that were quite helpful for him to prevent him from getting detected before he even took action and Jason slowly approached the pack of wolves which were eating some beast corpses or something like that.

Hiding behind the closest bush to the wolf pack Jason had to decide which wolf to attack first and he made up his mind after a short moment before he pulled back the bowstring with the coated arrow already laid on.

*surr*

A whir could be heard and the big wolf with the light-grey mana radiating felt a sting at its shoulder before it felt his body almost instantly numbing.

Luckily these wolves were only two-star wild beasts and the paralysis potion was potent enough to numb the stronger wolf for a certain amount of time.

Jason didn't stop after shooting his first arrow and he shot another three arrows before he was even detected by the other wolves.

11 scaled wolves were still able to fight and they stormed at Jason with bloodthirsty eyes as this unknown enemy had attacked their brethren.

They didn't know what was going on with their brethren but it wasn't anything good so they are naturally enraged.

Without thinking they stormed at Jason who´s quiver and bow vanished into thin air.

Taking out his dagger, there was already coated in a yellow liquid that dropped out of the scabbard.

Jason only bought the liquid-proof scabbard for this scenario as there was no time for him to coat his dagger during the fight and he didn't want to waste too much of his potion.

With his dagger in his hand and a two-star Artemis high in the sky, Jason felt confident.

Using a small amount of mana to enhance his lower body he increased his speed to a certain extent.

It was marginal and without a movement technique this enhancement was extremely restricted, but it was still better than nothing.

He could maintain this for around three minutes until his mana was dried out but these three minutes would be more than enough to kill 11 two-star wild beasts with the help of Artemis.

While Jason spun around the group of two-star scaled wolves, he inflicted small injuries that were enough for the potent paralysis potion to activate and numb his opponents, Artemis finished off the paralyzed wolves before distracting the surviving wolves.

Jason was only slightly slower than the scaled wolves but he was more flexible and had it much easier to make use of his body.

Being bipedal was also advantageous and the whole battle was finished quickly while Artemis finished off each of the scaled wolves without leaving any of them alive even if they were unable to defend themselves which surprised Jason slightly.

He didn't think that Artemis was so cruel and Jason wanted to let them alive.

Artemis noticed his hesitation and transmitted an image of him getting pounced by one of these wolves once they regained control over their body.

It was clear what she meant.

These wolves wouldn't leave Jason alive and be grateful for him letting them survive either.

Rather it would end up the other way around and they would attack him to avenge their brethren or maybe to follow their wild instincts.

Thinking about getting backstabbed by the ones he left alive Jason shuttered before he regained his focus.

Looking at the scaled wolf in front of him the larger scaled wolf replied his gaze with wrath and rage which Jason to sigh as he took out a green syringe.

Inside the syringe was a sleeping solution and he injected it into the wolf which was still unable to move freely.

Jason had still around half of his mana reserves left and he wasn't scared about getting attacked as he was relatively close to the dome and even if some beast attacked him, the potent paralysis potion was even slightly useful against four-star wild beasts.

They would still be able to move but a feeling of numbness would hinder their movements slightly.

Waiting for the sleeping solution to kick in, Jason took care of every scaled wolf corpse and finally the scaled wolf was tired and fell asleep.

This sleeping solution was potent and would last a few hours even for five-star wild beasts so Jason wasn't scared about getting attacked by the scaled wolf.

Lifting up the large wolf body wasn't easy but once its body was laid over Jason´s shoulder it was much easier for him to move.

Using some mana to reinforce himself his steps got steadier and 30 minutes later he reached the dome.

Before going through the dome he had to use the enlarging miniature cage he bought.

Lying down the sleeping scaled wolf, he took out the miniature cage and pressed the red button before throwing the cage slightly in front of him.

*clatter**clatter**clatter*

After some loud rattle noises, Jason saw the miniature cage enlarging and it looked somehow extremely satisfying.

Inserting some wild beast cores to recharge the cage he put the scaled wolf inside.

Luckily the cage had some wheels below, otherwise, Jason wouldn't be able to move around the cage and Jason entered the dome without it attacking the scaled wolf inside the cage.

It was only fortunate that Jason bought this cage as it was a necessity for beast merchants and hunters who tried their luck with catching some beasts.

Seeing these cages around one star wild zones wasn´t common and Jason attracted a lot of attention which made him feel uncomfortable.

Jason didn't mind others' opinions but he still couldn't handle many people's gaze on him.

While waiting for the special shuttle he heard many people talking about him

"Isn't that a scaled wolf inside the cage? Such a waste of time and credits…"

"Finding a wild beast with potential is like searching for a needle in a Hayball…"

"Does he think beasts with high potential are commonly found like candy in a candy-shop???"

"Poor fellow...maybe he is desperate for money and thinks living wild beasts are worth a lot…"

"Shouldn't someone enlighten him about his misunderstanding... It's too sad.."

People were talking about him and most of them were youths while only a few middle-aged bodyguards were looking at him with conflicted thoughts.

They were also naive but not as much as the black-haired youth in front of them.

Jason tried his best to ignore the onlooking people and he rejoiced when the large shuttle that looked almost like a pick-up arrived.

A metal arm lifted the cage into its loading area and Jason left the onlookers alone.

While the shuttle was bringing him to the city, Jason looked if he got a message from Greg or Malia.

Both had messaged him while their messages were different the main points were the same.

While Malia´s messages were rather bad news, Greg asked him to come to their mansion as soon as possible while sugar-coating the reason with some nice words.

Jason forced a smile and thought: `They rejected me?`

Looking back at his catch he tired his best to think positively `At least I can do some business with them!`
