The Geared Immortal

Chapter 759 - Troublesome Visitor

Chapter 759

…

A large group of people arrives in front of the cave while a large number of resources are being sent outside. The cave and the dungeon inside it are being harvested of their resources and were sent to the town of Gipard.

It has already been 5 days ever since Shin Jiao's group finished going through the dungeon. They did not kill all of the beasts inside it as it would be a good training ground for the protectors and newbies from the town.

Plus it would also give the town's people a chance to earn some money.

Ji Ha-jun, as one of the town's lords, is the one who suggested to Shin Jiao for the dungeon to be used as such. Shin Jiao did not reject the proposal and also agreed. He also decided to create a portal from the town to this place so that people could easily go to and from the town to the dungeon.

In just 5 days, the outside of the cave already has many people who are busy collecting the materials. Some of the lords from the town even visited the dungeon to check it.

Many others even began to construct some buildings outside the cave. To facilitate those workers, many food booths were erected for the laborers who would toil inside the dungeon to extract the crystals and the stones.

Since he has nothing to do, Shin Jiao and Luna decided to explore the floating islands not too far from the place. It was a truly magnificent sight that Luna feels excited as she flew from one island to another.

As the two explored the floating islands, Shin Jiao suddenly stopped as he seems to have noticed something from his senses.

"Luna, I think I found something…" Shin Jiao said as he suddenly flew towards a huge island the size of a football stadium.

Luna just waved her hand as she is busy admiring the scenery in front of her.

He carefully walked inside and soon saw in front of him a field filled with herbs and colorful flowers. The field is a magnificent sight as it showed hundreds of thousands of herbs and flowers. There are even trees with rare fruits.

As Shin Jiao scrutinized the field, he was truly awed.

There are ginseng, rare mushrooms, flowers of every kind, and fruits that exude vitality and energy. With these findings, he was amazed that no one has ever discovered this place.

As he continuously roams around the field, he soon discovered something on the ground in the middle.

It was a half-ruined rune pattern…

As he checks the rune, he discovers that it has the same pattern as the ones in the dungeon.

Shin Jiao carefully analyzes the rune, and after a while, he takes out some blood from one of the beasts he killed. Then using a brush he uses the blood to complete and fixed the broken rune.

After he draws the rune, it was suddenly bursting with energy and began shining.

After about a minute or two, Shin Jiao noticed that his surroundings are changing. Everything around him suddenly disappeared leaving an empty field. Then as if another portion of land appears which seems to cover the whole vast field.

"Illusion and protective array… This is amazing…" Shin Jiao muttered as he felt elated. Now he has a secret place to get his needed ingredients for pills and alchemy products.

Shin Jiao decided to create another portal marker to this place as he walks out of the small cave.

When he suddenly appears, Luna, who has begun to look for him all around the place, found his figure and flew towards him.

"Hey, where have you been? I thought I've lost you again…" she said with a worried expression.

"It's fine… Are you done with your sightseeing? We have to go back now…"

The two then went back to the group and help with the walls and the construction of a small village settlement outside the cave.

Since this place has many workers they need to make it a safe place against the beasts and shadow creatures. Hence building walls, creating a portal, and constructing a small village in this place are the most ideal plan.

Shin Jiao and Luna stayed in this place for 2 more days before their business is done.

They soon depart to the town of Gipard.

Using the teleportation portal is the fastest way to travel to the town. Shin Jiao has already set up the portal and has been in use in the following days.

Ever since he began sharing this technology with the Osmond clan, they have already given him the freedom to do whatever he wanted. Although it would take time for the other array experts to learn about portals, Shin Jiao still taught it to them.

So right now, in the town of Gipard, in a 5 story wide space building beside the Mystique Blacksmith Shop, there are many people who are learning new types of arrays, alchemy and crafting. This is part of the agreement between the Osmond clan and Shin Jiao.

He would teach a part of his knowledge to them, and he would be given free rein over his own turf and properties without the Osmond clan involvement.

Many have protested against this as they thought that giving freedom to a mere gold level human immortal is too much freedom.

Even though that was the situation, those who are against this decision are still unable to do anything to him.

That is what Shin Jiao thought...

Shin Jiao and Luna soon arrive at the public portal gate in the town.

As soon as they arrive and decided to return to the shop, they were greeted by a group of 5 gold armored protectors wearing a special badge.

When the group saw the two, they immediately approached them.

"Kneel commoner and receive the command!" the leader of the group said while looking at Shin Jiao with his cold eyes.

When Luna heard the domineering act of the guy and the cold gazes of the other people with him towards them, she showed an angry expression on her face.

Luna is a straightforward woman and did not like schemes. She would fight scheme with schemes, fire with fire, but her personality is always straightforward. If someone is friendly towards her she would also show friendliness, but if someone is hostile towards her, then she would also be hostile towards them.

This is just like the case with the high elves.

"Who are you people to command us to kneel before you?" Luna angrily said while glaring at the group.

"What audacity! Capture that woman!" suddenly the man shouted to the others behind him.

With that one command, the group did not hesitate and suddenly draws their weapons.

The group is with a strict command to get these two people to face High Lord Ignacio Osmond, one of the powers behind the faction that does not agree to give Shin Jiao freedom. Ignacio Osmond thinks that this fellow of low cultivation and power level should be captured and forced to work for the Osmond clan.

The Osmond clan should show dominance over him and make him submit to the clan and not tolerate his whims.

And the leader of the group was commanded by the high lord to come to this rural place to do as such, capture and imprison the lowly commoner.

Of course, his subordinates share the same opinion as to their master.

As the four people did not bother to ask any questions and immediately attack, the bystanders around them were also taken aback.

Luna on the other hand, though surprised, was not caught off-guard. She suddenly summoned two flying swords from her ring and directly formed a defensive stance in front of her.

Clang! Clang!

The weapons collided and Luna was sent a few steps back. As her power level has reached the peak of the gold level, she is already strong enough to fight against those with the same level as her.

Shin Jiao on the other hand did not make a move and just watches as a sword drew near him.

The person attacking him directly with a killing blow showed a sneer on his face.

He intends to kill Shin Jiao and wait for his resurrection to subdue him without a hitch. That way, it would be easier to control Shin Jiao by making him a slave.

As the blade of the sword came near his face, Shin Jiao casually extended his finger and stops the glowing blade.

As someone who could fight against lord-level beings, how could Shin Jiao easily fall under the gold-level fighter?

With ease, he casually sent an electric current on the sword, and the person holding it was suddenly electrocuted.

"You bastard!" the other person suddenly swung his blade towards Shin Jiao's neck.

But the same thing happened and now two people are on the ground while convulsing and with their mouths foaming.

Luna on the other hand fought against two gold-level protectors using her flying swords and with great control of her power.

She has already recovered her domain and could easily free herself from other's domain traps.

The battle between her and the two gold-level protectors attracted too much attention that there are now a large number of people looking at this scene.

Suddenly, the leader of the 5 men group showed an ugly expression on his face.

"Enough!" he shouted as his aura suddenly billowed around him.

"Peak of the gold level…"

"That guy is strong… I heard he is from the Osmond clan…"

"But they seem to have gone against the wrong person. How could they defeat Master Si Ji?"

As the crowd began to discuss, the expression of the leader of the 5 men group turned uglier.

He knew that his mission to subdue this lowly person has failed. He must now show him his power to teach him a lesson about courtesy.

With that in mind, the leader suddenly darted towards Shin Jiao.
