The Geared Immortal

Chapter 307 - The Great War Of The Races 10

The infiltrator part 2

/*unedited*/

The desert is a very brutal place where many creatures are hiding deep within the sands. These dangers plus the harsh environment made this place almost unlivable. However, within this harsh and dangerous place, a large tribe of desert-dwelling beast-men lives within the desert.

Their skin is yellow like the sand, and their hide is a hard rock-like carapace. This race looks like desert toads with a human-shaped body.

While Shin Jiao and Agnes flew through the desert sands, unknown to them a couple of eyes are currently watching.

"It will take us two days before we can arrive at the demon territory. We need to prepare before this." Shin Jiao reminded.

Agnes nods her head as she continues hugging Shin Jiao.

What baffled Shin Jiao is why this woman won't ride her own hoverbike and insisted on riding on his. He was too helpless as Agnes is a headstrong woman and would not budge with her decision.

It was already night time as the two decided to stop and set up a simple camp. After replenishing their energy, the two immediately went to sleep.

Deep in the night, the sound of the desert wind blowing mildly along the surface of the sand brings a tranquil and peaceful feeling. In this peaceful time, a hidden danger lurks from within.

Many shadows suddenly rush in silently, their movement are like that of the night desert wind, unhindered and graceful as their webbed feet roughly touch the desert sands.

"Ssskktt tkkt chho."

"Chho tkkt tkkt"

The sound of conversation from an unknown language can be heard from the shadows.

In no time, the shadows surrounded Shin Jiao's camp and began to tighten their encirclement. They slowly approach as they observe the camp for any unforeseen changes or circumstances.

"Chho chho!" shouted one of the shadows as a group suddenly steps forward and began rushing towards the tent.

Their rushing footsteps this time made some 'huala, huala' sound in the sand.

Without scruple, that group of shadows immediately jumped inside the tent and began hitting and stabbing the two beds with their spears.

Meanwhile, inside a room, Shin Jiao is watching outside as his spiritual sense is looking at what is happening outside of the tent. When he saw the figures of those shadows he was a little taken aback. They look like beast clan people, but their skin, head, and posture is different.

"Demon?" Shin Jiao muttered.

"What we've found by demons?" Agnes suddenly reacted.

"Hush!" Shin Jiao asked her to be quiet.

As he continues observing the situation from above.

Suddenly they heard a loud shriek as the group came out of the tent. Then that's when the shadows began moving around the camp and began breaking everything they see. This turned the camp into a mess. Luckily Shin Jiao hid the hoverbike inside his spatial tool, if not, then it would surely be broken by the rampaging shadows.

…

Dawn, everything is in tatters as the tent and the woods inside were scattered all over the place.

Shin Jiao scanned the vicinity with his spiritual sense and found that the shadows have already left the area. Then the two appear not too far from the camp under the sand.

Shin Jiao immediately hid the portable box metal camp in his spatial tool and took out the hoverbike. The two didn't waste time as they immediately leave the area.

However, as soon as he started the hoverbike Shin Jiao noticed the sand moving and a few fast spears were thrown out as many figures suddenly jump out of the sand.

Whoosh!!!

The sound of spears flying towards them can be heard as he dodges each of the spears by moving his upper body.

Agnes followed the movement of Shin Jiao's body as the two seem to move as one while dodging.

Shin Jiao suddenly squeezes the throttle of the hoverbike and it immediately speeds off. But the creatures didn't relent as they chased after them from behind while throwing their spears.

"Damn it! Those are not demons, why do they look like one?" Shin Jiao said as he observes the figure of the creatures chasing after them.

From the aura on their bodies, it is clear that they are beast-men. However, their skin and body structure are like that of a demon frog.

"They look like newborn sand demons. These creatures are very dangerous and deadly because of their number." Agnes warned.

"Are you sure? They are not demons thought." Shin Jiao doubted.

"I just said they look like one. I think the tip of their spear has a poison that can paralyze their targets."

"What a neurotoxin? That is very dangerous." Shin Jiao muttered.

Although he is almost immune to any kind of poison because of the poison essence in his mind dantian, yet he will not neglect the fact that neurotoxin can still incapacitate him for a few seconds.

"Here! Take them down!" Shin Jiao handed her a handgun.

Seeing the handgun, Agnes's eyes went wide in excitement. Though she can use her power to get rid of their pursuers she didn't want to waste too much of her mana in this place. So the gun is a good solution to this problem.

Peng! Peng! Peng!

The sounds of bullets hiding and hitting a hard object can be heard as the bodies of those she hits would fall to the ground with a thud.

Because of the speed of the chase, it causes the body of the desert frog-like creatures to be mangled as it fell and be stepped on by its kind following behind.

Suddenly, Shin Jiao noticed that the sand ahead of them is starting to move. Then slowly a large mountain like monster crawled out.

"What the heck is that?" Shin Jiao shouted as he turns the hoverbike to dodge the creature ahead.

"That's… that's a sand dragon! Quickly we must escape this place!" shouted Agnes as a panicked.

In the land of the mages, the sand dragon is already an extinct creature. This is because; they are hunted by the mages and warriors for its hide and very hard carapace. Though the dragon is very strong it still has its weakness, its speed.

"Sand dragon, eh…" Shin Jiao muttered as he looks at the small mountain in front of them.

"Hey, let's finish those small fries and then attack that thing," shouted Shin Jiao.

Upon hearing his words Agnes suddenly turned dumb. Her mouth twitched as he looks at Shin Jiao's back wanting to hit his head.

"Idiot, do you know how many armies it would take to hunt that thing?"

"It doesn't matter. With the two of us working together we can defeat it." Shin Jiao said confidently.

With a quick toss of his hands, a few circular objects flew and landed on the ground. Then a blinking red light can be seen on that thing as it landed on the sand. The blinking suddenly quickens as the interval became shorter.

Then all of a sudden…

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A white explosion immediately covered those chasing behind them, while Shin Jiao took out a machine gun from his spatial tool.

The demon-like beasts following behind them suddenly turned into ice statues as they were frozen upon coming in contact with the white substance in the air. The chain reaction was an amazing sight as one creature froze one after another.

Peng! Crash!

Peng! Crash!

Hundreds of already frozen creatures broke into pieces as Shin Jiao hit them with his rapid-firing rifle.

It didn't take long after they finished killing every one of their chasers.

Then Shin Jiao noticed that the sand dragon is also unable to move. This is because one of its legs is frozen stiff.

Roar!

It suddenly roared like a mad beast as it tried to break free from the frozen sand.

"Damn it! Let's go!" Shin Jiao shouted as he jumps towards the sand dragon.

"Human! What have you done to me?" a booming voice froze Shin Jiao on the spot.

He didn't expect that the sand dragon can actually talk.

"Heh! That's just the appetizer. Here's the main course!" shouted Agnes as she suddenly jumps up to the air.

From her hand, an ice ball is already forming. From her action, Shin Jiao knew what she is thinking. She would be trying to freeze the sand dragon and turn it into a treasure to advance her power, and also for armors.

Shin Jiao has the same plan, but he is still curious that the sand dragon could talk.

"Shin, don't hesitate! That thing is a very crafty monster." She shouted as she suddenly throws the revolving ice energy sphere towards the sand dragon.

However, before the sphere can reach the dragon, it decided to sacrifice its feet just to be able to escape the danger it is in.

Growl!!!

Cried the sand dragon as it rolled to the ground with purple blood spewing all over as its frozen leg broke and shattered.

"Damn!" Agnes gritted her teeth in annoyance.

However, suddenly Shin Jiao's figure vanished from where he stood and suddenly he appears on the sand dragon's stomach as it is currently on its back from falling and howling.

But before it can react, Shin Jiao stab his dark sword which suddenly appears in its stomach.

"Let's see how tough your hide is." Shin Jiao said as he suddenly ran upwards towards the monster's neck while dragging the sword embedded in its body.

Roar!!!
