The Geared Immortal

Mutants Part 2

Bang!!!

Boom!!!

Many cracks appear on the ground and tons of trees have been broken in two as a bear-like man with metallic bronze arm rampages while trying to hit a soldier dressed in black. The large bear-like man is going all out attempting to hit the man but no matter how hard he tries, he just could not hit him.

"All you can do is dodge! You're just a coward, fight me! Come on, fight me!" Broody shouted in anger.

All around them are already in ruins with cars flipped over and many potholes are now on the ground. Shin Jiao made sure that the rampaging man did not hit any buildings on the surroundings. However, there are those unlucky street lights and trees on the surroundings which have been ruined.

Many people have been woken by these disturbances as they watch from their homes. But no one dared to go out and inquire about the situation because of fear from what they are seeing.

"Damn it! We are gaining too much attention. We have to retreat now!" shouted the commander.

"Everyone retreat! Retreat!" he shouted in the coms.

When the mutants heard his words, they showed a rather disappointed expression on their faces. But still, they have to obey or else they would be reprimand by their superiors.

"Hey, Broody! Let's go back now!" shouted the man wearing tinted glasses.

When the large figure heard this he angrily grabs something on the ground and threw it towards Shin Jiao. When Shin Jiao saw the flying car door, he just stood in place and calmly slaps the object to the ground.

Bam!!!

The car door which was thrown was casually slapped making Broody show an incredulous look on his face. He could not believe that the man is actually strong enough to do such a thing and just resorted to dodging while they were fighting. Broody felt that his pride and ego were hit and wanted to rush forward and smash the figure wearing black clothes.

But since he has already received a command he decided to follow it and bottle his resentment. He is sure that they are going to be commanded to strike again sometime soon, for now retreating would be the best option.

As the black figures retreated to their cars, Shin Jiao was left in the middle of the ruined roadside. Then with a move, his figure vanished on the spot.

Those who have seen this showed a surprised look on their faces. They even look at their phone and rewind the video they have recorded over and over to make sure that they are not hallucinating.

That morning a new online began spreading, the title caption was 'Superheroes! They're real!'.

Everyone who has seen the video began clamoring that it should have been an edited video with some FX. But as soon as many angles and different videos appear no one ever dared to malign the reality of the video.

The online community began a buzz and wanted to find out who the guy in black was and the bronze man. But no matter how much they searched, it was a futile attempt.

…

Right now, Shin Jiao and the two women are inside a hotel room. They were unable to pack their things as they left their house in a hurry after calling the authorities. From the news on TV, they can see the police escorting many foreigners wearing black combat clothes like those worn by SWAT teams.

The authorities have already interviewed the three and told investigators half of the truth and the supposed rescue from the so-called superhero.

The people in the area also told the authorities and the news reporters about what had happened in the area a few days back when some rich young master wanted to kidnap someone and a person stopped them and helped those who were hurt.

An unclear video of Shin Jiao was seen as he fought against many people, and like that in the movies, they have shown him dodging bullets and moving really fast.

Everyone connected the incident of what had happened today and the public arrived in the conclusion that there might be a rising Superhero in the city H.

The media became excited and the people were in awe and expectant to see the superhero saving others. But the police and the higher-ups are angry. They condemn the actions of the suspects and the so-called superhero.

A police chief is being interviewed in front of the camera at this moment.

"Chief, what do you think of this so-called superhero?" the handsome looking news reporter asked.

The police chief showed an annoyed expression on his face and looks at the camera.

"We in the police force condemn the action of those terrorists and lawbreakers… but we also wanted to say that what that person they are calling the 'superhero' is doing is 'vigilantism' and we won't condone such an atrocious act… He has no right to take anyone's life or justice in his own hands." he said with a stern voice.

As the three watches the news, they look at each other and showed a faint smile.

"Shin, I think what the police chief said is true. We should not face this problem by ourselves. Let's just call the police and let them solve it." Susan Tang said with worry in her face.

"I agree, Shin we should not meddle in this issue anymore. Let's just live our lives like normal… Okay?" Shi Anne Li added.

Seeing the worry on the two women's expression, Shin Jiao showed a helpless smile. He knew that the police chief is right. However, he did not initiate such a thing as others are the ones attacking them. But still, he needed to be careful this time not to get caught by the authorities.

That afternoon they returned to the company and continue their day as per normal.

Susan Tang asked her secretary and some people to find her a villa so that she can immediately move out of her already ransacked condominium.

That night the three continue to live in the hotel, but the two women insisted that they would stay with Shin Jiao giving him a headache.

With a pitiable look on their faces, Shin Jiao felt a bit hesitant at first but soon decided to stay as a guard to the two for the night.

The large suite room is enough to accommodate the three of them, but the single king-size bed in the middle made Shin Jiao a bit suspicious of the situation. It was Susan Tang who arranged everything so Shin Jiao just followed with her setting.

Meanwhile, as he was taking a bath, he suddenly heard the two began talking outside.

"I think I know what you're thinking." The voice of Shi Anne Li said.

"So… I don't care. I realized that time is precious, and after last night, I didn't want to hesitate anymore. I will give Shin Jiao my all… I don't want to have… regrets." Susan Tang replied.

"I… I felt like the world was ending that time, while I was sent flying, and seeing, and feeling that scary scene. All I was praying was for Shin Jiao to be there for me… I… I don't want to be alone." Susan Tang said in a low but helpless tone with a bit of sobbing.

When Shi Anne Li saw her expression, she bit her lips and didn't know what to say. She knew that she had been selfish enough to take Shin Jiao back after what had happened between them, but she too had a resolution that she would never let him go.

Will she be okay to share her man with another woman?

She didn't want to think about it but, what would she do if Shin Jiao really left her.

Thinking of the sadness and the ache she had felt before and she would be feeling again, a drop of tear suddenly slid down her cheeks unconsciously. She slowly wipes her cheeks and looks at Susan Tang who is looking down while tears are slowly falling from her eyes.

"Sigh… I guess… I… I will not give up. But… Let's decide how this would be between us." Shi Anne Li said having decided on what to do.

"You know he can't marry the two of us, right? He still needed to choose, whom he should marry." Shi Anne Li added with hesitation.

Shin Jiao who is listening to the two talking suddenly felt a headache coming.

"Sigh… This is a big problem, and I can't just shirk off this responsibility like an assh*le. Do I really like both of them? I mean… what's not to like? They're both��� beautiful and intelligent. But the problem is responsibility… Hmm…" he thought as he lets the water run through his body while trying to cool off the anxiety in his heart.

Then suddenly a few blurry faces entered his mind and the relationship he had with those women. There was that white hair woman who had always been beside her, and the masked woman whom he shared a love-filled and an amazing night together.

Though the faces are blurry and indistinct and the timeline is the same as the game world he created, his feelings for those figures are true.

"Did I love those women before?" he thought.

But then shakes his head to chase away that crazy suggestion his mind is presenting.

Take the two as his women, and raise his own family his own way.

The notion was very tempting and seems plausible but his current mind and morals are not like what is in his mind.

And so his confusion grew and the problem within his consciousness also increases.

...

While Shin Jiao is experiencing trouble with his love life, the Russian operative who escaped are now in a warehouse.

The 5 mutants are looking glum as they could not accept the retreat.

"Commander, give us 1 day. We are sure to finish this mission." the man wearing tinted glasses said.

The man they called commander sat silently while looking down and his subordinates are waiting for his direction.

Then after a while, he looks up.

"Just today... finish the mission today.. Tomorrow we have to go back as ordered," he said as a resolute gleam appears in his eyes.
