The Geared Immortal

Chapter 310 - The Great War Of The Races 13

The three scourge

/*unedited*/

Three demons are looking at a desert toad demon as it walked towards them. Suddenly as the creature takes his steps the desert toad face slowly changes. The metallic object slowly covers the creature's body and head. Then from his back, two long metallic arms appear holding some kind of weapons.

"Well, this would eve the odds." Shin Jiao muttered as he went into a fighting stance.

Facing three powerful beings, Shin Jiao didn't want to put his guard down. Although he has always been beating a lot of opponents lately, one wrong move and he knew that his life would be over.

"What an interesting fellow. A human with a mana fluctuation of a mere archmage would fight against us? Foolish… truly foolish. Anyway, let's end this and put things back in order." Misha said.

When the two heard her words, they immediately gathered their mana and attacked.

Aliskey began charging his spell as he chanted some incantations. While Misha and Jail already covered their bodies with a strong warrior aura as they stood in front of Aliskey in a fighting stance.

"Shin, be careful. These guys are very dangerous. Even I would have a hard time fighting them when they are in a team… They are called the Three Scourge, the left hand of the current demon king." Agnes warned Shin Jiao.

Listening to her words, Shin Jiao knew that he would be facing a hard fight.

"Go! Kill him!" shouted Aliskey.

Immediately at his words Misha and Jail rushed towards Shin Jiao in a formation.

Shin Jiao also immediately used shadow steps as he ran towards his two opponents. The speed that Shin Jiao portrays is truly fast that it shocked Misha and Jail. However, Misha wrapped in a warrior aura suddenly showed a speed more than that of Shin Jiaos.

"She is too fast…" Shin Jiao muttered.

Misha suddenly blinked and appear behind Shin Jiao. It's like she teleported in an instant. She immediately brandished her two daggers and sliced towards Shin Jiao's head.

Yet before it could hit him, Shin Jiao he lifted his hand and a black sword appears blocking the two daggers.

Clank! Cling!

Metal hitting against metal reverberated through the air. But Shin Jiao was sent flying because of the force that Misha exerted. But before Shin Jiao could even land, a figure flashed behind him and a large broadsword was sent towards his torso. If this hits then Shin Jiao would be bisected in half through his waist.

"Die human scum!" shouted Jail.

Shin Jiao already saw this attack and using the two arms behind him, he was able to block that strike. However, he was still sent flying towards the sky. He was like a ball flying through the air. Then suddenly, a long thunder-like whip flew towards him while he was defenseless.

Crackle! Bang!

Shin Jiao's figure fell to the ground with a loud bang raising a cloud of dust.

"Haha… Is that it? He is just some weakling that's trying to act like a tough guy." shouted Jail waving his large broad sword in the air.

"Look at the woman, she pretty. I want her." suddenly said Aliskey pointing at Agnes who is still channeling her mana to the ground.

"What is she doing? Stop her!" suddenly Aliskey noticed something and shouted.

Rumble! Rumble!

Before they can move, they noticed that a figure is slowly emerging from the rubble.

Shin Jiao slowly got out of the pit he is in as he patted the dust around his body.

"That was awful I didn't expect that these three is that strong and well-coordinated." Shin Jiao thought as he prepares himself for the second round.

"Hey, that guy is still alive. It seems that he was not badly hurt." Jail said with a grin on his face.

"I'll face him. I hope that this guy will provide some challenge," he added as he drags his broadsword and began walking towards Shin Jiao.

Misha didn't just watch as she too moved and rushed towards Agnes.

But Shin Jiao would not let her get close. He has already grasped their strength. According to his calculations, if that attack that they did was about 30% of their strength, then even if they exerted 100% he can still hold his ground. But of course, it would be one bloody fight.

So he immediately thought of a solution.

Appearing in front of Misha, Shin Jiao drew his black sword and countered her blade. Meanwhile, the two arms behind him extended and the two sub-machine guns began spewing bullet towards Aliskey and Jail.

Now the fight becomes three versus one.

Jail immediately suffered two bullet wounds from his shoulder and leg. Luckily for him, his broadsword was able to block his vital parts hence he was able to survive. Meanwhile, Aliskey's mana shield immediately activated and protected him.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao and Misha began exchanging blows after blows of sword and dagger strikes, with each of them receiving some wounds all over their bodies. Misha is truly an expert warrior as she is able to face Shin Jiao in a head-on fight.

The three began to once again coordinate their movements in attacking Shin Jiao. Both Jail and Misha exchange positions as they assaulted Shin Jiao on both sides. However, the sub-machine gun is truly deadly as Jail has already received many bullet wounds on his body making him bleed all over.

"Aliskey! Do something about this!" shouted Misha as she noticed that Jail is already at his limit.

But of course, Shin Jiao is also hurt badly as he had already received a couple of slash wounds from Misha.

Suddenly he noticed the mage Aliskey taking out some scroll.

"Damn it!" Shin Jiao curses.

Right after he said those words, the four noticed the gigantic stone in the middle of the stage suddenly shines brightly. The light was so intense that Shin Jiao could not himself but cover his eyes. The three also did the same as they immediately step away from the stone in the middle.

Shin Jiao can already see the reading in the stone and he was dumbfounded by the energy it is currently producing.

"Shit, it's going to blow up." he thought as he quickly rushed towards Agnes who is now slumping on the ground from exhaustion.

In a blink of an eye, Shin Jiao has already carried her in his arms as they are running.

"Don't stop! Just… just run until we can get out of the city." Agnes weakly muttered while holding unto Shin Jiao's neck.

With a nod of his head, Shin Jiao dashes towards the gate of the city non-stop. He knew that it would cause a great explosion enough to level the already ruined city. It is like the bomb that he detonated in the ruins when they were facing Azmodiaz.

Crackle! Crackle!

"What should we do?" asked Misha as she supported Jail.

"Run! We must run!" Aliskey shouted as he grabs Misha's hands.

"We can't leave Jail here." She shouted in concern.

Suddenly, a large hand patted Misha's small and soft hand.

"I... I can't go anymore… Go! We have underestimated our enemy and it cost us our first defeat… Please avenge me." Jail said as he slowly walked towards the now rumbling gigantic stone.

Aliskey didn't bother anymore and just lifted Misha who is still crying and trying to break free from his hands. Jail and Aliskey are her only friends and they have gone to great length together.

The three of them are called the Three Scourge for being too destructive in their missions. They didn't care whether they destroy or kill anyone as long as they can accomplish their missions. Even many of the demon generals are afraid of them, which is why they were recruited by Belfast. He saw their potential as warriors and didn't want to waste them, and in time the three became stronger and stronger.

They are even able to fight against Paladins, or Elemental Lords, so they didn't put Shin Jiao in their eyes. And because of this, they lost.

"Brother Jail, I will avenge your death! I promise to not rest until I found that guy and take his head off." Misha muttered.

Upon hearing her words, Aliskey smiled. The two look at each other as they nod their heads in determination. They would take their revenge at that masked man called Shin, and the woman with him.

Rumble! Rumble!

However, before Aliskey was able to reach the city gate they heard a loud rumbling sound. Then all of a sudden, a strong bright light went up to the sky in the middle of the city. Then this was followed by a loud explosion sending strong waves of a powerful force that destroys the buildings and the houses. Then this is followed by a glowing ball of energy that disintegrated the buildings with a radius of 5 kilometers from the middle of the city.

The two had their eyes wide open as a strong force slammed on their bodies throwing them to the air as the dust cloud engulfed them.

A huge mushroom cloud can be seen rising up to the air as the city where it came from was blown to smithereens.

…

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao and Agnes are now riding on a hoverbike while traveling to the next city.

In this fight, Shin Jiao has suffered a lot of wounds in his body some are just flesh wounds but some are turning black. It seems that the woman Misha uses some poison on some of her attacks. But of course, due to the poison essence in his mind dantian, he didn't even feel that his body was poisoned as the poison is slowly being detoxified and absorbed.

"Shin, you have to be stronger than that if we wanted to face the current Demon Lord," Agnes muttered while weakly lying on his arms.

Shin Jiao nodded in acknowledgment. He too knew that he needed to reach the 50th sphere as soon as possible. This breakthrough would be crucial for them in accomplishing their mission.

The two traveled through the desert and behind them is the already devastated city with thick smoke rising up through the air.

…

Suddenly within the sands, a bloody arm holding a dagger stretched out. Then a blood-covered demon woman rose up.

She turns her gaze towards the horizon with a fiery glare in her eyes, burning with the desire for revenge.
