The Geared Immortal

Chapter 777 - Airborne Battle Royale (2)

Chapter 777

(Unedited)

…

Mason Vin is one of the top ten participants in this year's Heaven and Earth Opening. He has shown great power and ability as he would destroy his opponent with his savage and merciless attacks.

He uses a saber and his flying artifact is a shield-like object.

In this Heaven and Earth Opening, he wanted to give it his all to win this battle and be number one. But who could have expected that according to the statistics that were shown on that large screen, a woman is actually stronger than himself? And not only that, there are two more who are stronger than him.

And this made him really angry and discontented.

As soon as the battle was stopped and everyone was recalled to the skies, his anger and rage have not settled down yet.

When suddenly a floating ball and a familiar voice appear, his blood lust has shifted towards that small object and with a swing of his hand, his glowing sword directly strikes the floating object.

Those who are seeing this scene gasped in shock at the sudden reaction of Mason Vin.

"What the heck was that?"

"Eh? Why did he attack us?"

The crowd all over the main cities who almost jump in horror at Mason Vin's reaction commented.

"That boy's killing intent has not subsided yet…" one of the saint rulers said with a faint smile on her face.

Meanwhile, Mason Vin who just slices the floating ball in half is showing a change of expression on his face.

This is because he suddenly discovers that the ball was actually not damaged. He did not feel any resistance of a shield or protective barrier.

But instead, he saw his saber passing through the object as if it has no physical form.

He then showed an annoyed expression and once again hacked towards the small ball. But the same thing happened.

This time everyone in his surroundings has already noticed his action and is throwing a curious look in his direction.

Linja Ya also watches this scene and it made her a bit surprised.

"Well, I guess Mr. Mason Vin is not up for an interview… Let's ask someone else then…" Raon Lee's voice echoed as the ball immediately floated away at the irate and wild man.

After the ball floated away, Mason Vin began to relax and calms down a bit.

The 100 contestants rested for an hour, while another replay of what had happened began to be shown on the large floating screen.

Everyone who is watching this could not help but cheer.

At this time, in one of the major cities of the human race. A tall and muscular man walks inside an almost empty city street.

Flame Lord Krol of the red dragon clan was assigned to visit the human race territory to observe the Heaven and Earth Opening on their side. The dragon race is one of the overseers of this event and they did not want any unsavory incident to happen. So they sent many Invigilators to each race to observe the proceeding of the contest and report back to the dragon race and the council.

And so as soon as he enters the human race territory he decided to observe a major city first.

But then he noticed that there are no people on the streets which baffled him a bit. Suddenly he looks up and saw that above the city buildings and houses there are many humans sitting on the rooftop. There are even those who are floating while riding their flying artifacts.

"What is happening?" he muttered to himself.

Suddenly, he saw a woman carrying a large basket in her hand while she is hurrying in a certain direction.

"Hey, miss… what is happening?" he asked in confusion.

"Oh, well everyone is watching the Heaven and Earth Opening near the city square, you, sir, seem to be new in our city. You should come with me; I assure you that you can see a very interesting sight." The woman said as she turns around and continues walking towards the city square.

Not long later, Invigilator Flame Lord Krol arrives in front of a large floating screen which immediately gains his attention.

As a 60,000-year-old red dragon, Flame Lord Krol has seen many things in his long lifespan. But this is the first time that he had seen such a huge holographic screen. Plus the thing that made him truly baffled is the event that is happening on the screen.

He could see many human fighters displaying their prowess and ability and each of them is truly strong and awesome.

The Invigilator greedily watches with agape as he was truly entertained by the scenes which he is seeing.

"This is like using a dragon eye. But how come they are able to capture those exciting moments in those battles." He muttered to himself.

With the ability and the training from the village of Ji, of course, each controller of those cameras is able to maneuver and capture many of the most important events. Added to the fast-thinking speed of a cultivator, everything happened smoothly and almost without an error.

"The humans have already reached the point where they are able to harness the Dao elements in the immortal land. They are also able to create such artifacts that could shake the foundation of this world… If we can have this technology, then the forces of the light would advance our ability to fend off those shadow fiends…" Flame Lord Krol said to himself while clenching his fist.

He is already determined to investigate this and once he found the creator or even just the technology of such an artifact, he would bring it back to his race.

…

Meanwhile, in the space where many people are floating high up in the air, the 100 remaining contestants have already rested enough and have regained their energy.

The second elimination round is about to begin. Out of these 100 people, only a few will remain to represent the human race to the Heaven and Earth Opening against the other races which will be held at the center of the world.

On the screen, Raon Lee's voices and her male counterpart began announcing the second and final part of the contest.

'We are now in the final part of the Heaven and Earth Opening elimination round. Whether there would be 20, 10, or 1 left standing would be reliant on our contestants' skills and ability. This will be a great fight of an epic proportion. I think we will see the best of what the younger generations have to offer…' the handsome male commentator said.

'I agree with you in that… Ladies and Gentlemen, I hope that you are all prepared to see the final battle of the century! As you can see on your screen, everyone is excited, I am excited… Now let's watch and support our favorites… Hihi… For me, I'm rooting for the most beautiful and strongest fighter, senior Linja Ya. I wish she would be able to defeat her opponent and reach the top…'

'Haha… Miss Lee, you are showing your favorite, I would also show off mine. My bet is on the wild and berserk king, senior Mason Vin...'

'Hihihi… Men… You and your brutish attitude…'

'Hahaha… Well, folks… I hope that you would root and support your favorite! Good luck!'

After the two did some friendly banter, the screen slowly faded away and some words appear.

…The final battle…

…is about to…

…Begin…

As soon as they saw those words, the screen lightens up once again and it showed the 100 contenders ready for battle.

The hearts of all the viewers are beating fast in excitement, with their fists clench in nervousness. They are all praying for their favorites to win this final battle.

Of course, after this, there will be the final bout which would only determine as to who is the best of the best out of all those who will survive.

Even the lord, high lord, and the saint rulers, who have also decided to go out and watch this event, are watching the scene in front of them with great attention and interest. Some of them are even betting on who would be able to enter the top.

The whole human race watches with bated breath as the final battle royale is about to begin.

…

At the same time, inside of Shin Jiao's house, the two women are already seated in front of the large TV screen while a large basin of popcorn which Maga Luan prepared is slowly being eaten by those two. They have already finished eating and are now lazing on the seat while anticipating the next battle.

The two didn't even notice that Shin Jiao has already left and gone inside his room.

Wearing his piece of armor and preparing some of his gears, Shin Jiao showed a faint smile on his face.

In fact, he's been waiting for this final event for a while now. Although he is 80% sure that the place where the Heaven and Earth Opening will happen is in that valley, he could not remove the expectation in his heart that there might be a chance for him to still return to Earth or Gaeus Ro. Although it does not show in that universe's map, he is still hoping that there is a secret behind it.

Hence he has made his preparation, and now is the time to act.
