The Geared Immortal

Chapter 414 - The Mech Frame In Action

Chapter 407

/*unedited*/

Fifty people are surrounding the NXT Element Company building. They are being led by a thin man wearing a blue robe. The man has a phoenix eyes and a sharp beard on his chin. He is called Chou Man, the leader of the city H branch of 'the Fangs'. He has reached the last stages of the spirit refining realm in his cultivation hence he is the strongest cultivator in his group.

"Master, this place… it… it gives me the creeps." A man behind Chou Man said while looking at the parking space and the tall building in the middle.

"Haha… if you can see what I can see then you will be amazed. I think there is a cultivator among the people inside this building." He said while waving his hand in the air.

Three fireballs suddenly appear in the air and suddenly flew towards the parking lot. However, as soon as they enter the space above the parking lot, the fireballs mysteriously exploded.

Boom!!!

"Huh? What was that?"

"Oh, no! They are starting their attack! What should we do?!"

"Are we in danger?"

The people began to murmur and fear can be seen in their expressions.

Meanwhile, the people from the terrorist group look at the scene with amazement and curiosity in their eyes. The fireball that their leader just conjures is packed with enough power to compare with a bazooka or an RPG (Rocket Propelled Grenade). But it wasn't enough to even penetrate something that is protecting the company. This is making everyone in the terrorist group a bit jittery and annoyed as they cannot do anything against the barrier.

However, they still have other plans to get the woman out of that building.

The leader of the group walked forward and shouted using Qi.

"If you are listening to me, Miss Wilson… If you don't come out, we will wreak havoc in this city and you can blame yourself for the people dying. It's either you or them… you choose."

After saying those words, the man turns towards a building and suddenly conjures a fireball then sent it flying.

Kaboom!!!

The loud explosion and the fiery scene of black smoke rising through the air cause everyone inside the building to scream in fear.

Marie who saw this felt her heart stifled as tears began pouring down her eyes.

Park Jiyong on the other hand clenches his fists and looks outside the building where he can see black smoke rising from the other building.

Shin Jiao just stood calmly on the side as he knew that there are no casualties in that attack. It looks scary and frightening but no one was hurt, so he didn't make a move yet.

"Big brother Shin… can… can I use it to fight them?" Park Jiyong asked as he lifted the side of his jacket and showed Shin Jiao that he is wearing the exoskeleton that Shin Jiao gave to him.

When Shin Jiao saw this, he smiled but shook his head.

"That would not be strong enough to defeat even any of those people." Shin Jiao said.

He knew that if he acted it would be easy for him to take these people out, but he would also garner the attention of many people.

Then suddenly an idea dawned on him.

"The Mech Frame…" he muttered.

Park Jiyong on his side heard his words and his eyes lit up.

Meanwhile, Susan Tang and Shi Anne Li also had a look of confusion in their eyes.

"What are you talking about?" Susan Tang asked.

"Anne, follow Park Jiyong to the 1st-floor basement… Central, prepare two Mech Frames armed with assault configuration." Shin Jiao said.

Park Jiyong immediately walked towards the elevator to the underground facility followed by Shi Anne Li who is showing confusion in her eyes.

"Big sister Anne, this is awesome. We can protect the other people outside the company if we use the thing that I and big brother Shin created." He said while he almost hops on his way.

"What are you talking about? Did Shin created another new weapon?"

"Hehe… that's a secret, but you'll see… It would be awesome!"

As the two disappear into the underground facility, Shin Jiao and Susan Tang walked towards a woman who is slowly walking towards the exit of the building.

Her sluggish movement clearly shows her hesitation and conflicted feelings. But the hopelessness in her eyes is evidence that she has no choice but to sacrifice herself to save others. If she didn't do this then many would be sacrificed just for her to live. Before she would never mind this as her father would protect her from the knowledge that others were sacrificed for her own safety.

But ever since she came to know the real world, she woke up from the fantasy that was created by her father and knew the darkness and the gloom of the true world.

"I… I can't let this be… I can't let others die because of me…" she muttered with trembling legs.

Her feature as one of the ice ladies and goddesses of the company was gone and now a weak and powerless girl is walking towards her own doom.

"Miss, you can't… if you go out, then you would…" her secretary wanted to stop her but to no avail.

Suddenly in her struggles, a warm voice suddenly entered her ears.

"What are you doing?"

The figure of Susan Tang and Shin Jiao appear from the side standing next to her.

"You should go back… you can't do anything about this." Susan Tang said.

Marie wanted to protest but she suddenly felt her vision getting dimmer and then she fell unconscious. Shin Jiao caught her by his arms and carried her towards the infirmary of the building.

Susan Tang has built a small hospital in the building where many employees would enjoy free health benefits from the company. From there a bunch of capable doctors and nurses are present.

He laid Marie in a bed and a nurse immediately attended to their group.

"She just needs some rest, no need to fret." Shin Jiao just said and nods to the nurse.

Meanwhile, Susan Tang began talking to the doctors and some of the patients inside the infirmary to know the situation at hand.

…

Meanwhile, Park Jiyong is now inside a Mech Frame and is waiting for his load out to finish.

'Hey, Jiyong! When did you two make this thing?' Shi Anne Li's voice was heard on his headset.

"Oh, this? We just finished one today. And that is what you are using. This other one I am using is the prototype. I prefer this because I already used it before… I hope the quick practice is enough for you to be able to handle that thing." Park Jiyong said.

However, Shi Anne Li just showed a smirk on her face while looking at the interface. She actually didn't need to do anything. From what Central told her, everything is automated and she can use her mental consciousness to connect to the interface.

And true to what Central said, she can actually use the robot as an extension of her own body.

"Shin Jiao outdid himself again… If this thing comes out today, then we are going to make a fortune… I hope that this would not affect our time together." She thought as she looks carefully armed herself the way she wanted and didn't bother with Central.

As the two prepares, the timer started to draw closer towards the deadline that the terrorist.

"Haha… the woman has chickened out and would not come out of that place. Let's start wreaking havoc in this place."

"Yeah, I want to enjoy myself with any beauties from the city. I've been too cooped up in cultivating that I miss having a woman… Hehe…"

"Yeah, let's start, Master Man!"

Chou Man's subordinates began to grumble as they became bored with waiting. They are a bunch of lawless cultivators who stayed in the mountains for many months already. Although cultivating in the secret hideout is very satisfying, but most are still human and the craving for fleshly pleasure is still a part of their nature.

Seeing this, Chou Man showed a grin on his face. In truth, he too wanted to get wild and create chaos like what they used to do.

But before he can say anything, one of his lackeys shouted on the side.

"What are those things?"

Everyone turned towards the direction of the large vehicle loading path from the parking area.

From there they can see two metallic-looking things walking out of the loading docks. Even the people inside the building heard the sound and turned their sight on the direction of the sound.

"Oh, my… are those coming from our company?"

"Those are robots… Mechs!"

"Wow, I love this company… we were the first to create real mechs!"

The employees cried out in excitement and began taking pictures. The fear and anxiety they felt a while ago are now gone at the sight they are seeing.

Meanwhile, Park Jiyong and Shi Anne Li maneuver the mechs towards the two paths leading the entrance and the exit of the parking lot.

Suddenly, the two heard Shin Jiao's voice.

'Guys, you can fire directly towards those people…'

Upon hearing this, the eyes of Shi Anne Li shone, and killing intent filled her heart. She saw the explosion and was angered because she didn't know that there are no casualties inside it. In fact, all the people except for Shin Jiao are expecting a large number of people died because of what the terrorist has done.

"These people need to learn that they are not the most powerful beings in this planet," said Shi Anne Li as she didn't hesitate to point the muzzle of her rifle towards a man.
