Chapter 517: Faith

"STOP!! Aren't we all on the same side??? Why are you attacking someone who protected all of us?"

It was the young woman who had defended Jason against the other citizens earlier, staunchly supporting him when the others had doubted his intentions despite clearly seeing his efforts to save them.

When she had seen that Jason had been attacked by other humans that were also known as guardians who protected the weak, it was impossible for her to stay put.

Other citizens followed suit, but it was more because they were curious about what would happen.

Despite their earlier thoughts and worries about Jason's true intentions, it was unlikely that he had planned everything beforehand.

There were even a few citizens that had noticed the construction of the world bridge, and Jason hadn't been there at that time.

As such, their opinion of Jason was slowly changing after almost the entire population had witnessed him nearly sacrifice his life to protect them.

Because of that, they couldn't believe what they were seeing right now!

The guardians who were known for protecting the weak were attacking Jason, the same person who had single-handedly fought against a continued influx of chimeras for more than an hour!

He had used every means to prevent the chimeras from attacking them, only to be attacked, and was on the verge of being killed by fellow humans.

"Don't intervene. We cannot trust him! There is the possibility of him plotting against the entire human race! He is only a halfling after all...and that is only if this is the truth! Who knows, maybe all of it was a lie? Maybe, he staged this attack to be revered as our savior, and betray us later?"

The woman at the Prismar stage looked at the young woman coldly, who was about to release the arrow from her bow as something unexpected happened.

First, the young woman rushed towards Jason, in order to lift her arm to shield him from the attack, and stared at the group of middle-aged men and women who had descended to the ground.

Their fortified soul conjunction was dissolved and Jason had returned to his usual self, yet, they looked as frightening as before.

Mona, the young woman, who was acting as his human shield planted her feet firmly on the ground and tried her best to remain calm, only to see that they seemed to be unbothered.

However, just at that moment, more and more citizens, who knew that Jason had protected them, rushed forward.

A small group of people now surrounded Jason, astonishing the guardians, who could only stare at the citizens, unsure of what was going on.

A few seconds later, the city protectors arrived in front of the crowd with an apprehensive but resolute expression. 

Jason had saved their life and if they were to allow the guardians to kill him, they would be nothing but cowards who didn't deserve to be saved. 

Repaying the debt was the least they could do! 

"Please.. Ms. Flora, can't we talk about it calmly? He saved our lives and protected the city by endangering himself! The rumors on Skynet shouldn't be the truth and have most likely been falsified!" 

It was the youngest protector who spoke. Not only did he realise that Jason had helped them, but it was also evident that he had no ill intentions. 

Fortunately, the citizens had noticed this too, otherwise, the other two city protectors wouldn't have spoken in Jason's defense. 

At least, if the youngest of them didn't misinterpret the reluctance that glimmered in their eyes. 

Daphne Flora looked straight into the young city protector's eyes that were filled with determination.

Sighing deeply, she slowly retracted the bowstring and unfastened the arrow, before her weapons disappeared inside the spatial ring she wore. 

The two other women followed suit, while the men looked at the entire crowd threateningly. 

However, after Daphne glared at them once, they stopped glaring and mellowed down. 

Daphne was still not sure what to think about the entire situation. She had been told to protect the city. Yet, at the same time, there were also several orders about the individual 'Jason Stella', requesting his death.

Even if they hadn't read the rumors about Jason on Skynet, which was evidently the case, hunting him dead or alive was a mission with a huge reward. 

The same could be said about multiple missions declared by different big clans ordering his death.

Only a few wanted him captured and brought to them alive. 

In the end, the rewards were generous enough to allow someone to cultivate at a high level for decades. 

If Jason were to know this, he would have lost his entire trust in the big clans. 

They hadn't even received the entire translated version of the foreign races manuals and were already eager to kill him? 

Did their fear strike them so deep? 

Jason couldn't fully realise what had happened because his head was still ringing, while his sight was blurry. 

Every cell in his body was aching, and the pain worsened as Petri, who had entered his mana core fully integrated his strength with Jason's. 

On one hand, this had allowed Jason to survive the Warhammer's strike, without breaking every single bone inside his body.

However, on the other hand, he knew that Petri's physical strength was too much for his body to handle. 

As such, he expelled Petri from his mana core, in fear that it would tear him apart. 

Blood was already oozing out of his pores, and it only lessened when Petri appeared inside his Soul world. 

Solaris had already replenished a large amount of mana which allowed it to emerge within Jason, spreading through his body to ease the tension. The fire soothed the pain as it coursed through his veins, and every cell of his body, dousing the ache and uncoiling his tense muscles. 

Jason was glad to have such loyal soulbonds that protected him fiercely. 

It was even better that Petri's fortified soul conjunction had been fully established, which was much faster than he had expected. 

He was not sure how much time had passed before he could finally move his sore muscles once again. 

As Solaris eradicated the pain to some extent, he mustered some energy that slowly flowed from his fingers to his hand, arm, shoulder, and finally his entire body. Shaking a little, he regained his senses and was slowly able to move again. 

Taking a deep breath, Jason looked around and couldn't help but feel shocked as he saw a large crowd of humans, or to be precise, citizens surrounding him, protecting him. 

After he had crashed into the streets, Jason hadn't seen or heard anything at all. 

As such, it was not weird for him to feel astounded that there were suddenly more than a hundred citizens around him. 

'Maybe I wasn't wrong?' 

A faint smile appeared on his lips and Jason's faith in humanity seemed to be restored. 

There was at least some hope! 

Using his utmost efforts he put all his energy in his legs and bit his tongue as he struggled to get back on his feet. Meanwhile, the citizens directly around him took a step back, astonished that Jason was able to stand up. 

His entire body looked broken, smeared with blood and dust, yet Jason was able to move. 

He squeezed his way through the crowd. 

There was no need to use much force and he came to the front only a minute later. 

Looking at the woman at the Prismar stage, Jason's eyes remained stoic. There was no change in his emotions as he asked straightforwardly,

"Is it really necessary to kill me? Do you really think you'll get the rewards for hunting me down? Would the big clans bother about that or simply kill your entire group too?" 

Despite not knowing the truth about what had happened, Jason's assumption about a few big clans had hit the bulls-eye, making everyone believe that he knew about the kill orders.
