One-Eyed Monster

Chapter 984 - 982: Igor’s Observations (Part 2)

This was somewhat unexpected for Sol.

He hadn’t anticipated that the Soul Devourer Master would abandon all these Spirits.

To be precise, it couldn’t be considered abandonment; he devoured these Spirits, concentrating all their power upon himself, making his own power grow ever stronger...

This method of energy enhancement is fast but revolting.

The consciousness of those Spirits had already completely collapsed at this moment, being devoured bit by bit by this Soul Devourer Master, entirely devoid of any compassion; just because the Spirit was his knight, he wouldn’t go easy. In his eyes, they were just tools to enhance his power.

"Didn’t you say I was in the minority? Actually, I’ve always wanted to prove that the minority is the real Absolute Truth, and I am the truth." The Soul Devourer Master continued, clearly inflated. Absorbing the broken consciousness of countless Spirits bit by bit, it indeed made him a bit incoherent.

"I want you to know how truth changes; when power becomes strong enough, the weak have no right to express their opinions!"

As he continued to absorb, the Soul Devourer Master became more rampant, the previous image suddenly vanished...

The true visage of the evildoer finally resurfaced, and prior instances were merely child’s play. Perhaps the Soul Devourer Master had enough of playing around and didn’t want to continue like that.

Sol could sense the powerful energy fluctuations, but the Soul Devourer Master’s appearance still showed no change, still an ordinary human without any special features.

Such ordinariness might be a great disguise, easily causing one to drop their guard.

Sol felt that the rampant and evil demeanor displayed by this Soul Devourer Master now was his true nature. All past behaviors were just a guise for deceit, just like his appearance.

The plain exterior showed no special attributes, making it difficult to associate with evil; however, the aura emitted by this Soul Devourer Master at this moment was indeed threatening to devour everyone.

"Sometimes, there’s no need for excessive words, but I love to see you weaklings’ arrogant expressions, thinking you grasp the truth, but the truth does not stand with you at all." The Soul Devourer Master laughed heartily, with wild laughter, but he had the means to be wild. In the process, he had already thrown out several Yellow Energy Balls. These energy balls were directly flung toward the prison on the ground, causing the formation just set up by the Resistors to collapse entirely.

But this wasn’t the end; after the Energy Light Balls exploded the cage, they scattered countless yellow spheres attacking the formation-setting Resistors.

Boom boom boom—

The yellow spheres exploded upon contact with anything, dispersing the consciousness of many Resistors it touched, clearly showing that some Resistors couldn’t withstand such bombardment.

The scattered yellow spheres bounced chaotically, seemingly without any pattern, posing difficulty for Sol and the Resistor leaders, who had to exert great effort to stop part of them. However, neither Sol nor the Resistor leaders could completely block these yellow energy spheres... The unblocked yellow spheres exhibited considerable power, directly dispersing the consciousness of some Intermediate Rank forces, making it utterly impossible for them to block these energy spheres.

"See, in the face of immense power, where is your so-called Absolute Truth?" The Soul Devourer Master’s words grew increasingly cutting, fully arrogant and lofty.

At that moment, Sol and others finally sensed the incoming crisis. The Soul Devourer Master’s power far exceeded his imagination, moreover, as he continually devoured these Spirits, his strength grew ever more invincible, reaching an irresolvable state.

Sol genuinely wanted to issue an order to retreat now, knowing with certainty that persisting in resistance would incur heavy losses... No, not just heavy losses, but total annihilation...

The Soul Devourer Master was dauntingly powerful, strong enough that Sol couldn’t contend.

The entire Resistor team depended on and hoped for him, but there was nothing he could do against this force; now they could only focus on defense.

"Hehehe, what a thrill this straightforward attack mode is, no need for superfluous disguises or fancy moves, just blow them away with energy!" The Soul Devourer Master continued to chatter, very content with his method of attack, constantly releasing a bunch of energy balls.

This left Sol and his group struggling even more.

"Hey, Mos!"

At this moment, Igor quietly called out to the Mos Brothers standing beside him, fighting alongside the Resistors; he didn’t know if it was the elder or the younger brother, but calling him Mos wasn’t wrong.

"What?" One of the Mos Brothers wielding a large knife turned to glance at Igor while holding off the yellow energy balls.

Igor, amidst dodging the yellow energy ball attacks, wasn’t up to using Sword Qi to block the energy balls, but evading was fine.

However, his act of dodging caused him to move away from the Mos Brothers, rolling next to Shana.

"Hey, Shana!"

Shana was puzzled, thinking to herself that at such a critical moment, this kid still had time to greet each person. What exactly did he want? An annoyed Shana smashed an energy ball with a whip while responding to Igor with a snort.

The four of them were always near the center of the Soul Devourer encirclement, unable to move much. Only the energy light ball attacks slightly shifted their positions, with Igor moving the most, while the rest basically stayed put.

Igor eagerly interacted with various Resistor leaders because he wanted to make contact with Sol, feeling he could assist him now.

Though the scene had become a chaotic mess during the intense battles, Igor hadn’t actively participated and focused on utilizing minimal energy right in the center, contributing strength without exerting full force.

However, Igor wasn’t idle; he observed.

He concentrated most of his efforts on observing, convinced that the Soul Devourer Master must have a weakness, which a careful examination would surely reveal a solution.

Now he had found some clues and felt that, with Sol’s help, he might find a way to restrain this Soul Devourer Master.

However, he couldn’t reach Sol at the moment, hence wanted to ask the Mos Brothers and Shana if they had any way to communicate with Sol.
