The Geared Immortal

Chapter 430 - A Plan Of Attack

Chapter 423

/*unedited*/

Inside a dark cell where no light can enter, five unconscious naked women are sprawled on the ground. From their appearance and figures, they look like supermodels of some sort. Two of them are black, one is brown, and the rest have white skin.

In another room, Shin Jiao is currently listening to Central's report on what she found out about the five women who were captured.

"They are carrying concealed plastic base semi-automatic pistols in-between their legs… plus one of the employees that were marked as a spy prepared their entry papers in the company." Central's voice echoed in the room.

"Should we eliminate the spy, master?"

"No, let those spies be. We can prepare in advance if we have them. They are foolish enough to think that we don't know who they are, so it's okay…" Shin Jiao replied as he looks at the document in his hands.

Right, now he is looking at the backgrounds of each of the women inside the room. From what he reads, he found out that the five women came from different countries all over the world. What baffled him is their background. Most of them were once poor and destitute. According to the official records their existence is clean and was a normal citizen of the country.

But when Central dug deeper, she was able to find their true background. Two of them are daughters of a rich family and was kidnapped. However, after paying the ransom they were confirmed dead and were never seen again. That was when they were only 8 years old.

The rest were in their teens when they went missing.

Central also found out that these women are employed by a person from a town called Haisong. The town is small and rural, and outside the town is a castle-like mansion. This mansion is owned by a foreigner but Shin Jiao knew that everything was not real.

"Master, I cannot find anything after that. But what I discovered is the transactions that a person has with the Li clan. No matter how hard they conceal it there are traces of it that I was able to follow." Central said.

"So the Li clan still didn't give up in their greed… I guess it's time for me to visit them…" Shin Jiao said with a sneer.

His feelings have been disrupted by what happened to Shi Anne Li, but since she is okay now, he is already satisfied. He is not so petty as to take revenge, however, since the people behind her accident are not giving up, he didn't have to think twice to teach them a harsh lesson then.

But he needs to do this intelligently, which is not his forte. So he walks out of the room, he didn't need to ask the women inside because he knew that they are trained not to talk even under extreme conditions. They would rather kill themselves than talk.

He decided to break their mental barrier first.

"Put each of them in the white room…" Shin Jiao commanded as he walks out.

Shin Jiao enters Susan Tang's room and found that Marie is discussing something with her. Right now, Marie was promoted to be the COO of the company. She was the one to replace Shi Anne Li.

The two women seem to be leisurely discussing things while laughing and drinking tea.

When they saw Shin Jiao entering, both smiled.

"You can leave us now." Susan Tang said to the two secretaries.

 After the two women walked out, Shin Jiao sat on the opposite couch.

"It was the Li clan…" he said as he pours himself a cup of tea.

"They would not give up even after what they did to Sister Shi Anne?" Marie said with anger clearly written on her face.

"I guess I have to make a move and teach them a lesson… but… I don't want to be forceful and expose myself. I want to deal with them in the shadows. Can you think of a plan?" Shin Jiao asked the two.

With his words, the two women suddenly turned quiet.

"Hmm… Whenever my father has enemies, he would deal with their company little by little… until they collapse. Subtle, silent, but effective…" Marie said with a smirk on her face.

"That would be too much Marie… I wanted to make the people at the top pay, but not those employees who only work for a living."

"Aw… Yeah, I know you're a softy, Hihi…" Marie chuckled.

"Shin, in this situation, we cannot be hesitant. You can only do this by show of force… If they didn't listen, then we can take over their companies little by little." Susan Tang suggested.

"Yes, I can ask the help of my dad…" Marie also chimed in.

Shin Jiao heaves a heavy sigh…

"I guess, a show of force is still the most effective way to handle everything." Shin Jiao thought as he looks outside the transparent wall.

"Shin, the design of this building is too nice. We can also enter architecture and construction in the future." Marie suggested with a smile on her face.

This is what the two are actually discussing. The speed that the building was constructed is something they have never seen before. The use of steel and reinforced concrete was the norm, but the speed is jaw breaking. The Mech Frames has the basic ability of Shin Jiao to manipulate steel and stones. Hence they were able to make things faster.

"Anyway, I leave everything to the both of you… if you need anything else, just tell me." Shin Jiao said as he stood up.

He gave Susan Tang a kiss on her forehead and left the room.

After asking for suggestion he now can tell his next move.

…

In a huge mansion, outskirts of Haisong town

A long line of black SUV arrived in front of a huge castle-like mansion. Black suited men began going out of the vehicle and prepared the area for the people who are inside. After everything was cleared, seven middle-aged men and one old man walked out.

Their aura enveloped the surrounding giving off a stately and grand feeling.

A tall and handsome man walked out of the mansion to welcome the group.

"Great Elder, elders… Welcome to my castle… Haha…" the handsome man said while laughing heartily.

"Mr. Qintang, the patriarch is not pleased with the progress… you know why we are here." One of the middle-aged men said sternly.

"Haha… of course, of course… but I need to show you all something… please follow me." Lin Qintang said with a courteous smile on his handsome face.

However, deep inside him, a murderous intent is currently overflowing. This is because the five women he sent have not returned yet until now. Even their trackers seem to have stopped working. This made him feel a bit anxious and angry at the same time.

As he guided the great elder and the elders of the Li clan inside the laboratory/workshop underground, he explains the progress of the scientist and engineers to them.

When the group reached the lower levels, they saw two Mech Frames. The first one is a bit tattered and broken, while the other one is prim and shiny.

"You… you have done it! You were successful in making a copy of the thing?" an elder said with excitement in his voice.

"Ah, yes… you see we were able to reconstruct most of the Mech's functions… here let me show you." Lin Qintang said as he signaled one of the workers on the side to go inside the cockpit.

After a while, the Mech Frame that is in a relaxed position suddenly moved and stood up. It moved its arms and torso and showed a lot of articulate movements.

"Make it walk…" an elder said excitedly.

With a signal, the mech began walking slowly.

After the demonstration, the Great Elder and the elders of the Li clan showed a satisfied smile on their face.

"You hid this too well… When can you mass-produce this thing?" the Great elder asked with a solemn tone.

"There are still some minor problems with the motion, but within a month at most." Lin Qintang said with confidence.

When the Great elders heard this, his wizen face smiled.

"Well, well… this is interesting. That was a nice piece of hardware you got there." A voice suddenly interrupted them.

"Who! Who are you?" shouted an elder as he jumps in front of the old man followed by the rest.

"Haha… You don't have to know who I am… I'm just here to challenge you. In one month I will send my Mech Frames to one of your headquarters and will destroy it. You can choose to defend it with your cultivators or your own Mech Frame… good luck! Hahaha…" the voice said as it faded to the background.

Everyone was baffled as they cannot see where the voice came from.

"If… if my guess is correct that was Shin Jiao, the engineer who created these robots." Lin Qintang said with a grim look on his face.

He is a high-level cultivator along with the elders and the Great elders who has the highest cultivation among them, but they were not able to detect the presence. This only means one thing, the person is far powerful than they expected.

"This is bad… I didn't think that they were able to know this location… what should we do Great elder?" one of the middle-aged elders asked with concern.

"We will do nothing… Since that man wanted to fight us… then we will show him our power. Mr. Qintang, what do you need to be able to mass-produce that thing?" the Great elder said.

However, Lin Qintang is now sweating a large bead of sweat on his forehead. This is because the presentation was actually bogus.
