Chapter 1228: Ensnare (1/2)

“Oooo… You’re not getting away!” cried Lee Shi, leading the group to kill the fleeing Mutants. Lee Shi, being the leader of the charge, was wielding a Godblade. He knew that even alone, he could fight and kill all three Mutants with ease. With their heads, he would have the leading score in earning his good brother a Godblade!

“Do you think something is wrong here?” said Zhuge Qinlong as he came to Jiang Fei.

“My thoughts exactly. These Mutants are coming and going as if they’re on a suicide mission. I dare say they were the bait leading the grand masters into a trap!” said Jiang Fei. Like Zhuge Qinlong, he too noticed the oddity of the Mutants.

“Senior Bai, could you please call them back. I have a bad feeling about this,” said Jiang Fei. At the same time, he felt a mild sense of admiration toward Zhuge Qinlong.

Jiang Fei was only able to pick up the oddity on the Mutants because he was not directly involved in the chase. On the contrary, even though they rushed out like hungry wolves, these grand masters had lived longer and had much more wisdom than many scholars. However… they were still human and was susceptible to greed and temptations. They were all too greedy trying to kill the Mutants that they had forgotten to analyze the battle.

Ignorance is bliss. These grand masters were completely closed off from the world that they did not understand the power of technology. To make things worse, the enemy was using alien technology that far exceeded the technologies of Earth. To them, no one on Earth could defeat them and no weapon was stronger than Godblades. Additionally, Jiang Fei was the only person that could have the means to reforge them.

With that thought in mind, these grand masters had no fear as they charged toward the Mutants, thinking that they were all-powerful. Perhaps even when they realize it was a trap, they would still continue their pursue.

“Leave it to me, I will lasso them back if I have to!” said Bai Shien with a stern face. He, like the others, had experienced the power of alien technology. He had been imprisoned showered with bombardments of energy cannons before.

“Stop! Do not pursue! Be wary of traps!” Bai Shien channeled his Qi to his throat and roared with all his might after he got out of the ship. His voice was so loud that the chasing grand masters heard him. Unfortunately, they ignored the call.

“Stupid fat f*ck! Do you want to be showered with cannons?!” Bai Shien added.

When Lee Shi heard the second calling, he stopped in his tracks immediately and shuddered at the thought of being bombarded with energy cannons. It was a traumatizing that Lee Shi came to his senses. He had heard the first call but had chosen to ignore it as the thought of earning a Godblade was too great a temptation.

Having being “baptized” before, Lee Shi knew well the power of those energy cannons. He knew not to fall into the enemy’s trap. However, the other grand masters were not giving up that quickly. The others, even though Bai Shien had given his warnings and Lee Shi stopping in the middle of his tracks, still proceeded with their pursue.

“Sigh… These greedy folks!” Jiang Fei muttered. Even though he had predicted this sort of behavior, there was nothing he could do to prevent it, much less stop them. They were mighty Level 5 grand masters and had no reason to listen and obey the orders of a Level 4 young boy.

“Warning. They are leaving the range limits of the Light Dispersion beam,” said 0543.

To be fair, they had already long left the range limit and if they were imprisoned by the Temporal Prison, Jiang Fei could do nothing but wait until he got in range to rescue them. However, that would take longer than usual as the ship could not move forward until 0543 disabled the island’s defensive system.
