The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1025

(Unedited)

…

As the contest is about to come to a conclusion, Shin Jiao, on the other hand, is still floating in the Heaven and Earth Valley. He has already finished what he needed to do and a small transparent gear that looks like a gel is floating in his palm.

Shin Jiao did not want to waste more time and quickly control the object as he inserted it through his body. Shin Jiao gritted his teeth as he carefully controlled the object as it slowly attaches to his soul.

"Arrgghh… That's a bit painful…" Shin Jiao said while he shakes his head.

He has expected that such a thing would happen, but he did not expect that it would hurt to such a degree. This is especially true when that object was inserted into his soul.

"I have to test it now…" Shin Jiao thought however before he could do anything he suddenly received a message from Luna.

'Shin… Shin… Are you there?... Can… Hear… Bzzzt… Bzzt… Me? Can you… Bzzt… hear me? Bzzt…' It has been a long time since he heard such a static sound that it took his memory in the time when he was behind the enemy line.

It was his second deployment and after helping his team escape, he was left in the enemy line.

He tried calling for backup but received none and he has to rely on his quick thinking and skills to survive at that time.

"What is happening?" Shin Jiao quickly came to his senses and ask.

'We… under attack!... bzzt… beasts…  attacking…  village… town.' The broken words are hard to understand, but Shin Jiao tried to piece them together.

"Tell, Ji Ha-jun to activate the defenses and the protective barrier… I permit the activation of the phase shield." Shin Jiao said while he quickly turns on his other communicator.

It did not take long before he could see the true circumstance outside. He could tell that the whole of immortal land seemed to be embroiled in an all-out war against the invading demons and the Shadow Beings.

"So this was their plan… Damn… What are they thinking of? Why are they attacking like this?" Shin Jiao muttered to himself and began to think what the true goal for the war.

He was able to find out the plan of the enemy for the Heaven and Earth opening and the portals, but the other plans, he is not aware of them.

As he watches what is happening outside, Shin Jiao could not help but want to go out and help. However, how could he do that?

His role at this time is far more important.

He has to stop the leader of the demons and the shadow beings in his tracks.

According to their plan, he has to stop them and prevent them from entering the world they have chosen.

If he is successful then that might be a way to destroy the invading demons.

But Shin Jiao does not have the habit to put his bet on just one stone. Ever since he was transported to another world and experienced the pain and the suffering from the past, he has learned to create backup plans.

As he floated weightlessly in the valley, Shin Jiao watches the event that is happening in the dimensional world.

"If this ended, the winner will be arriving in that spot over there…" Shin Jiao muttered as he controls his direction towards a strange platform.

"This is the spot. I should just wait in here then…"

Shin Jiao then landed on an old tree as he continues watching the scene on his screen.

…

The dark elf and the lady dragon are drawing closer to the platform while behind them follows the others.

When the dark elf and the dragon enter the platform, their figures suddenly vanished from the maze.

Then from above the large stadium, the pictures of Shamil Yet'ak and Verna Frost are shown. On the side of their picture are their score and how many beasts they were able to kill in that maze.

And according to the scoring, Verna Frost is leading with her opponent 3 heads behind.

As the crowd saw this many cheered while others felt a bit dissatisfied. They have taken a liking to the dark elf and her elegant but ruthless way of fighting.

Then the screen at the top began to show the audiences the battle between the contestants and the monsters they faced.

From what everyone could see, Verna Frost is truly a great and very strong fighter. However, Shamil Yet'ak is also not a simple contender either. Her precise and deadly strikes and her agility and speed are something to behold.

The differing opinion of the audiences began to make the stadium a little loud as the people began cheering for the other contestants which also enters the finish line.

And soon, more pictures are shown at top of the stadium.

"Look, the humans have entered the top 5. I can't believe it! This is the first time that this happened." Someone exclaimed.

Of course, the humans in the crowd also feel proud of such an accomplishment. For the first time in the history of the immortal land, humans have reached the top 5 and also the top 10.

…

Meanwhile, inside the waiting hall of the stadium, everyone has already gathered and the top 10 has already been determined. But this top 10 is only for the semifinals.

Out of the people in the semifinals, there are around 20 who were able to enter the finals and the 20 individuals are already divided into partners.

"Hehe… It seems that we were really lucky today!" a dwarf said with a big smile on his beardy face.

"Lucky? That's you, my friend… As for me, I got here because of my skills…" an Insetodian who looks like a human-sized praying mantis said in a hoarse voice.

"Haha… With your short legs, I wonder how you were able to run that fast…" an orc jeered at the dwarf.

When the dwarf heard the two, his eyes quickly turned into slits as he waves his hand. Then suddenly a huge hammer came out and something came clicking inside the dwarf's suit.

His small body was quickly covered in dark bronze armor.

"You were saying something?" the dwarf said with an angry tone.

But the other two did not back down and have also shown their own weapons. The Insetodian did not need a weapon as a praying mantis, he already have two razor-sharp sickles.

This small skirmish is actually happening inside the waiting area.

It's like the little words from everyone could make each of them angry immediately.

Everyone seems to be irritable and could not wait to fight everyone inside the room.

While this is happening on the side, the dark elven woman is watching the scene with a cold gleam in her eyes.

"Immortals are too easy to manipulate… Hehehe…" Yol-gar thought.

"Hihi… If they demonized in here, then the chaos will let us escape this place easily. This is truly a flawless plan." The Shadow Being, Yol-gar's, chuckled from within his mind.

"That's right… You have already located the spots, right?"

"Yes, no problem… They will not know which world we will enter…"

"I can't wait anymore… This is making me too excited."

The two discussed mentally while everyone around them began to be chaotic.

Pang!

Suddenly, the place turned tranquil as the sound of something loud hits the floor.

Everyone shakes their heads as if waking up from a trance.

When this happens, the eyes of the dark elf glare at the old man who suddenly walks inside the huge waiting hall.

The old man waves his hand and everyone was sent floating to the side without their control. This only shows that the old man is actually a saint ruler.

Now in front of the old man is the dark elf.

"I see… so you are the demon." The old man said with a smile.

When Yol-gar heard this, his dark heart skipped a beat. He did not know how he was caught, and he did not know how their plan was discovered.

"What should we do now?" Yol-gar asked the Shadow Being inside of him.

"We don't have any choice but to go all out. I think that this is a trap set by them… Damn it! We were too close." Shadow Being Yol-gar cursed as he glared at the old man.

The contestant immediately scuttles and runs outside while inside the waiting hall only the old man and Yol-gar were left.

"Either you make your move, or I will. Either way, you will still die… demon." The old man said as he lifted his cane.

Then holy aura began to exude out of the cane which slowly filled the air.

When Yol-gar saw this, he felt like he is some cornered dog that has no other way to escape than to fight.

Since he is already discovered, he has no other way than to show his true self to the old man.

"You look old… Hehe… I guess it's because of the white beard and hair and the cane.. Immortals… what a bunch of trash…" Yol-gar said then suddenly rushes to attack the man who looks old.
