"The undead golems' toxic mist is too strong they are even eroding the celestial force. Wyatt's cursed blood flame doesn't stand a chance against their toxins. We have to do something," Henricks said staring at the two and half dozen grotesque undead golems surrounding Wyatt. Their bodies' toxic mist formed a circle around him, containing his cursed blood flames. It seems the undead golems planned to contain Wyatt's huge flame tornado form by forming a toxic mist orb combining their toxic mist. Then smother Wyatt's cursed blood flame from within using their toxic mist. This way they would be able to ensure that they have killed every last bit of Wyatt's energy body and not let a tiny part of him escape and let him live. The undead demigods were really not to be underestimated. Even with their sentience suppressed they still figured out a way to completely kill Wyatt's energy body without leaving any future troubles to complete their masters to assemble into a battle array formation and kill everything in their sight. "Hang on, it is still not the time yet," Ransom said as his eyes stared at Wyatt's face trying to make out his every micro-expression. Just like Henricks he too wanted to immediately rush to Wyatt's rescue but seeing his expressionless face in the face of the undead golems and their deadly toxic mist, Ransom held back believing Wyatt had an ace up his sleeve that he had yet to use. Otherwise, there was no reason for Wyatt to appear so indifferent to the threat of the undead golems. After all, he and Henricks were shitting their pants even though the undead golems were ignoring them. Since Wyatt did not appear to be in need of help, Ransom whose heart yelled to go to the former's rescue immediately listened to the mind that warned him that helping someone when they did not need it would not garner any gratitude. Hence, he continued to wait for the perfect. "Are you fucking with me right now? When will it be the right time? When the fucking toxic mist of the undead golems' smother the boy's energy body into nothingness," Henricks lost his calm, and his language took a turn for the worse. If not for Henricks requiring the assistance of Ransom to help rescue Wyatt from the undead golems surrounding him, he would have beaten Ransom to a pulp without fearing for Field Marshal Heatsend settling the score because he believed if the Field Marshal learned why he beat Ransom, she would forgive him for beating her beloved youngest half dead. "Shut up, you old fool. What are you getting excited about when the one in actual trouble is indifferent to his situation and surroundings? Clearly, the boy has something up his sleeves giving him the confidence in face of death otherwise he would not be so calm right now," Ransom informed his speculation to Henricks. Listening to Ransom's words, Henricks wondered if the former was still drunk and asked, "You dimwit, how the fuck can you tell that from here in an isolated space? I have faced that boy on many occasions, I was a few feet away from his face yet I could not tell what was going on in his mind. What makes you think that you can tell what's going on in his head from here? Not to mention, he is not even human right now. He is a humanoid flame, how the fuck do you read the expression of a flame?" "..." Ransom's mouth twitched in irritation. Like his mother Ransom too had a pair of unique eyes. However, unlike his mother's mighty unique eyes, his weren't that powerful. Hence, they were not as renowned as his mother's unique eyes so most people forget that he too had a unique pair of eyes. Though they were not capable of extraordinary things like his mother's unique eyes they gave Ransom a very sharp and intuitive sight. Allowing him to see many things that regular card apprentices could not. For example, the card apprentices think all the monsters and beasts of a single race look the same as they cannot differentiate them from one another. However, Ransom's eyes allow him to see them as different individuals with just a glance. The limit of his unique eyes did not end there, his eyes allowed him to observe the minute changes in things not just beings, and tell the direction of their motion, the magnitude of force applied, the probable displacement, etc. Ransom could observe these minute changes in someone or something and predict their course of action. Though at the initial stage, there was a lot of error margin but with practice Ransom had managed to reduce the error margin and adapt this into his fighting style. Hence, earning him the position of the team leader of the rescue team that fixes things when things go horribly wrong. The use of his unique eyes doesn't end there, he has been able to incorporate them into his array mastery allowing him to considerably shorten the time it took him to set up array formation. The same went for card creation, his eyes allowed him to increase the success rate of his card creation by several folds. However, the most useful thing about his unique eyes Ransom felt was that if he focused enough could observe a person's soul through their eyes. More like reading their thoughts and emotions at that moment or regarding something. This even came very handy in combat as it allowed him to learn his opponent's feints and attacks. Not to mention their obvious advantage against deceptive abilities like illusion, etc. Overall, Ransom's unique eyes were a great support ability that had made his life a lot easier. Though his unique eyes failed to read Wyatt's soul through his eyes for some unknown reason he was still able to read Wyatt's thoughts and emotional state through his expression even in his humanoid flame form. This was why he knew Wyatt was not really worried even though he was surrounded by the undead golems' deadly mist that was trying to smother him to death.
