The Geared Immortal

Chapter 815

(Unedited)

'¦

Im Ao is only around 7-years-old when he and his sister escaped the Xinglo Kingdom. One of the reasons why the two were able to survive in the harsh environment while escaping is because of Im Ao's innate ability to detect danger. The young boy seems to be able to know if there is a threat to his life, though it is not that accurate as sometimes he could not feel it.

But because of this the two of them were able to survive their escape even though his sister was wounded all over her body at that time.

And now this ability of his is currently helping him in detecting a greater danger from behind him. Without a second thought, Im Ao dodges to the side while a searing flame suddenly came flying.

Boom!

The ground where he was standing was immediately covered in red flame. Im Ao rolled on the ground while shifting his gaze in the direction of the fireball. And to his surprise and shock, he saw a person covered in blood glaring at him.

"You'¦ dare'¦ try'¦ to'¦ kill'¦ my'¦ disciple'¦ I'¦ will'¦ make'¦ all'¦ of'¦ you'¦ pay!" the figure of Emil Vanatia said with great effort as his body moved like a slow zombie while lifting his hand once again.

A great mana wave covered the air as he is now projecting a power that is more than what a High Mage should be able to handle. Emil Vanatia's power rises by leaps and bounds until it soon reaches the level of an Arch-mage.

"Argh'¦ This is the most this body can handle'¦ What a weak bastard'¦ I made you my disciple thinking that you have potential, but'¦ trash'¦" Emil Vanatia said in a low and eerie voice.

However, the voice did not come from his mouth but from somewhere within his body.

"Anyway, I should just destroy this village for offending me and trying to kill my disciple'¦ Hehe'¦ Hahaha'¦" the voice said as the energy in Emil Vanatia's body began rising.

Meanwhile, inside the house, the expression of everyone turned scared. Upon seeing the still standing man who is supposed to be dead in front of them, they all showed fear in their eyes. But what scared them the most is the power level of their enemy.

"This is bad'¦ I think'¦ I think he wanted to blow himself up using mana implosion. With the power of an Arch-mage, this village would surely be wiped out of existence." Jason Mirk said while fearfully staring at the figure in front of them.

He knew that even if he runs away, he would not make it out of the town and escape this tragedy. Hence he has already resigned to his fate and just slowly closes his eyes.

The Mur family is also showing the same thing. They just hug each other and close their eyes.

Meanwhile, Nariz Gumal and Im Jae run out of the inner room of the shop and then look at the slowly glowing man.

"If only I still have my powers, I can easily stop that man or throw him further away'¦" Nariz Gumal said.

But then she did not want to just give up and quickly draws a handgun and shot the figure of Emil Vanatia.

Bang! Bang!

The bullets flew straight to Emil Vanatia's forehead.

Puchi! Puchi!

Half of Emil Vanatia's head was blasted and even the large hole on his shoulder did not stop him from gathering more energy.

This scene made the three people who wanted to stop him feel that it would be futile to fight against the undead Emil Vanatia. They did not know if they could stop this 'thing', from blowing itself up.

"Should we run?" Im Jae asked as the three of them stood beside one another.

"No Big brother Shin is still fighting, we could not leave him." Im Ao said with determination in his cute little eyes.

"All of you could die now! Hahaha!" suddenly Emil Vanatia said while chuckling evilly in the air.

Bang!

A loud explosion reverberated through the air as a single bullet flew and suddenly tore a hole on Emil Vanatia's stomach. It blasted open a football-size bloody hole, and from that hole, a small object the size of a thumb finger, which looks like a red crystal inside a transparent container, fell to the ground.

The container showed cracking as a silver-colored bullet could be seen embedded on its surface.

"No! How could this be? Who dares!" shouted the eerie voice which seems to be coming from the red crystal.

The emerging destruction stopped and the mana in the air disperses as everything returns to tranquility.

Then not too far from them a figure suddenly jumps down from the roof of a 2 story house and landed in front of the three who showed astonishment and surprise in their eyes.

The three thought that they were doomed, but upon seeing the man before them, they all showed happiness in their eyes.

Shin Jiao has already determined what is happening and is just watching this scene from the roof. He was scanning the body of Emil Vanatia and soon he found that he has the same crystal embedded on his body just like the Arch-mage Gima Santon.

Before Gima Santon could attack him for the last time, Shin Jiao has already found the crystal and with a quick move, he threw the spell he has prepared towards the old man.

The explosion rendered the old man unconscious, but Shin Jiao did not stop. He suddenly plunges his black katana and directly pierces the unknown object beside the heart of the old man.

To his astonishment, the object did not shatter but instead, the transparent crystal around it was able to stop Shin Jiao's sword.

Though it showed a lot of spider web cracks, the transparent crystal protecting the red one did not shatter.

Shin Jiao checks the crystal and knew that it is something special especially when it began to threaten him. However, he did not bother listening to it as he immediately put it inside his dimension.

Upon doing so, a large amount of mana entered his body and directly filled the spheres inside his dantian up to 50 levels. This directly sent him to the Infant soul realm or the Grand Magus level.

And now when he returns to his group, he saw another crystal that seems to have activated when Emil Vanatia died. He watches for a while and listened to the eerie voice. Then after scanning the body of Emil Vanatia and seeing where the crystal is located, he immediately acted.

"So, you're the same old man. That Arch-mage Gima Santon and this Emil Vanatia are you, disciples'¦ Interesting'¦" Shin Jiao said while holding the red crystal in his hand.

"You'¦ I will hunt you down and kill you!" the eerie voice shouted from the red crystal.

"Haha'¦ I wonder how you would do that'¦ If you want you can introduce yourself and I will personally go to where you are hiding'¦ old man." Shin Jiao said in a provocative tone.

Hearing this disdainful tone from the man, the eerie voice seems to have been enraged.

"You'¦ Hah! Alright, I am Xin Xiaoyo, Grand Magus of the Great White Tower of Dugal. I swear that I will hunt you down until the ends of this kingdom'¦"

"Haha'¦ No need to hunt me, I will be coming for you'¦ Your magic powers have gained my interest and I really wanted to know how you guys in that tower of yours'¦ ticks'¦" Shin Jiao said as he did not wait for the old man to reply and immediately absorb the crystal in his dimension.

And just like the first one it gave him an ample amount of mana but is just enough to fill another sphere in his dantian.

So far, Shin Jiao has found only two spheres, the rest of the High Mages who were killed by them did not contain one. Though it is a bit disappointing, yet it still benefitted Shin Jiao a lot.

"Alright, we have to move and go continue our travels'¦ Nariz, did you get any information about your brother?" Shin Jiao asked.

Nariz Gumal shook her head in disappointment. She has asked the village about his information but it seems that they have not seen her brother. Plus the way information is shared in this world is truly primitive and unreliable.

When Shin Jiao and the three people behind him walk back to the ruined shop, Jason Mirk and the Mur family greeted them.

"Master Shin'¦ you are really strong, thank you'¦ thank you for saving our village'¦" Fabio Mur said while bowing his head in reverence.

Shin Jiao just nodded perfunctorily and shifted his sight to the young boy beside Mrs. Mur.

"This little child has some potential'¦ But the road ahead of him will be a little rough." Shin Jiao said.

Fabio Mur and his wife look at Shin Jiao with confusion in their eyes but then realized something.

They seem to have given up on their son of becoming a mage and decided to just give him a good life.. But now, it seems that there is still some hope.
