The Geared Immortal

Demons in panic

/*unedited*/

The lines of demons are almost endless and the cages prepared for them are set on large wagons. As they enter the cages and packed like a canned of sardines, some lesser demons would be trampled and killed.

In the cages not only mindless demons can be seen. There are also some other creatures that sided with the demons like, red goblins, giant red trolls, black ogres, black werewolves, lesser vampire ghouls, and more…

These creatures are the one that followed the demons in their exodus to this place. They were tricked and was brainwashed to become mindless cannon fodders for the war.

Back in the mages continent when the war began the same strategy was used. At first, they were winning, however, the Mages are just too powerful with their spells and incantations.

Plus with the help of other races like the dwarves, elves, and the orcs which were once an enemy of the humans, the demon races and its ally lost completely.

But now, they found that the same strategy is actually working really well in this place. They found that the beast clan is not too united to defeat their rampaging attacks. But of course, something changes when humans once again enter the fray.

Shin Jiao is currently looking at two figures on the side taking down notes while the other is currently trying to control something in the air.

"I guess they are using that spell to control the lesser intelligent demons and creatures… Then what if something happens to that guy?" Shin Jiao thought as a sinister idea comes to his mind.

Thinking from this point, he carefully put his hand to his side, hiding the small black handgun. Then after marking one of the cloaked men who is conjuring something in the air, he squeezes the trigger.

Peng! Peng!

Two sounds immediately reverberated through the air as a bloody hole appears on that man's head and chest. Shin Jiao seems to have hit its armor, that's why the ricocheting bullet sounded.

This sound alarmed the guards and their companions.

However, it was already too late.

When the man died, something seems to have happened in the air as every creature in the area was suddenly seem to have awakened from their stupor.

Growl!!!

Roar!!!

Howling and growling of angry beasts was heard where Shin Jiao and Agnes were. Then suddenly the creature behind them began to wave its claws at the two. Shin Jiao almost expected this result hence he was quick to dodge.

He drags, Agnes with him as they ran to the side.

Not long later, the creatures in the area began to rampage killing the other creatures and demons alike. Those that are inside the cages were able to free themselves and began to run amok along this part of the ruined city.

Suddenly, Shin Jiao and Agnes saw a petite female demon running out of a dilapidated house with blood and claw marks on her body. Then chasing behind her is a large werewolf.

However, when the creature saw the two demon toads, it turned towards them and pounces at Shin Jiao and Agnes.

Still, in their camouflage, Shin Jiao just lifted his gun and shot at the werewolf. However, he just shot its shoulder and found that the wound was too shallow and is already slowly closing.

Roar!

The werewolf growled as it once again pounces towards Shin Jiao. But before it can jump high up in the air, a silver flash appears and Shin Jiao's figure can now be seen standing behind the bisected creature.

"Come on we have to hurry and go to another part of the city." Shin Jiao said while waving his hand towards Agnes.

She extended her hand and the two began running.

The monster that was freed from the place where Shin Jiao and Agnes left has already begun spreading throughout the city. In this chaos, many demons and lesser creatures died. But some who have banded together lived, like the goblins and the vampire ghouls.

The chaos that started on this side of the city began spreading as the rampaging creatures began killing the controllers of the dark mana.

Meanwhile, in the center of the city, three young demons are standing watching the chaos that is happening down below.

One of them sneers at the pathetic state of the other pure ones.

"Although they call themselves pure demons, their power is not as strong as ours." A young demon said.

"Aliskey, not all demons are as powerful as you. But there are also those that are not part of our demon blood but more powerful than us." the big and bulky demon patted Aliskey's shoulder.

"You mean the demon queen? Hihi… I don't know if she is really powerful than me, but I heard that she fled the castle before Demon King Belfast arrived." The young man called Aliskey rebutted.

"Haha… that's what everybody wanted us to know. But I knew the truth. She was too powerful that they have no choice but to trick her. With a stab of a poisonous dagger from one of her maids, that is how she was defeated. Turning your back on an enemy is her downfall." The only young female demon among the three said.

"Hey Misha, what should we do about this? We are commanded to send these things on the battlefield. If not then the Demon Lord would surely reprimand us." shouted Aliskey at the female demon.

"Let's go down and calm this thing. Aliskey you control the dark mana generator in the center of the city, we protect you," said Misha.

With a nod, the three jumps down and began running towards the central dark mana refinery of the city.

Shin Jiao and Agnes have now arrived in the middle of the city where the largest stone can be seen. The ground surrounding the stone is littered with dead demons.

"I guess we truly made a big mess out of this thing right?" Shin Jiao said after looking at the place.

Agnes showed indifference upon seeing the whole scenery.

"Let's start, then I will destroy this rock and this would cause the whole place to crumble apart." She said as she lifted her hand and began congealing a large amount of mana as she formed a lightning ball in her hands.

Not long later, she released the lightning ball and hit the gigantic stone in the middle. The strength of the explosion was enough that is blew of the camouflage that Agnes was wearing.

"Not enough." Shin Jiao said as he watches on the side.

Every now and then he would attack the creatures that would pounce upon Agnes.

Agnes frowns as she immediately resumes in attacking the stone. She knew that the power she had summoned was not enough for her to destroy the gigantic stone, so this time she began to chant some words as she combined spell chant with her mana.

"I don't think so, lady." An arrogant voice suddenly appears from the outskirts of the circular platform where the gigantic stone is currently is.

The voice came from Aliskey as he and his two companions can be seen walking forward towards Shin Jiao and Agnes.

"Aliskey, Misha, and Jail!" Agnes muttered as she looks at the three figures.

She knew who these three were when she was the demon queen.

The three are known for their efficiency in their work. Their work would always end with a 90% success rate. It is said that the three are such an efficient group that they are always sent in areas where there would be possible trouble to happen.

However, the three truly enjoys their job as it would curb their cravings for fighting and bloodlust. The leader of the three demons is a young demon woman named Misha, the ghostly killer.

"Shin, these three are bad news. Two of them are all at the peak stage of Grand Knight in strength and power, and that other one called Aliskey is at the peak of Grand Mage in dark magic." Agnes said in a low tone.

When Shin Jiao heard this he was a bit shocked.

The power and strength in the mage land are somewhat the same as in the cultivation land. However, mages and warriors have different stages. Plus there is the rare class the cleric. Everyone would always start as a novice, then after they rank up they would become swordsman, mage, and cleric. Then the next would be Sword Master, High Mage, and Priest.

Shin Jiao just understood this thing up to here. He didn't have time to ask Agnes about the rest. But if his conjecture is correct then these three would be late-stage infant soul powerhouses.

If it was a one on one fight, Shin Jiao is confident that he is able to win against them. But fighting 3 vs 1 is somewhat a pipe dream. Because right at this time, only his physique is at the primary stages of the infant soul realm, and he didn't have any full-powered cores of level 5 beast anymore.

What he has is a half powered level 5 beast core which he used last time when fighting against Agnes. However, if only the sphere in his dantian would reach up to 50 spheres already then everything would be nice. But up until now, no matter how hard he tried every night he can't breakthrough. His deduction is either he has reached a bottleneck which is almost impossible or there is something that's preventing him from breaking through.

But he has no time to think about this for now as he has to face three enemies while Agnes would try to break the gigantic stone in the center of the city.

"I guess I have to rely on my gears then." Shin Jiao muttered as he steps forward.

Upon stepping he pressed a button on his chest and it started blinking.

Suddenly everyone was stunned at what happened next.
