The Geared Immortal

Chapter 699

(Unedited)

…

The black dragon with its rider flew directly towards the airship without warning. As the two figures drew closer, multiple projectiles began flying towards them.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao watches the man and its ride. He knew that the people in the ship would not be a match to the two and if he did not give them a hand, the ship would surely be destroyed.

It was not his duty or that he wanted to be a hero, but it is his will to survive that drives him to move according to the circumstances. His ability to create things has already been exposed to the people in the town of Vitol. So he is not afraid that the things which he takes out would cause him trouble.

Since he has already decided he went down to the cabin and into his room. He then immediately takes out a handgun and began changing the array set in the gun to accommodate the power of a lord. With his experience and knowledge of a lord\'s power which is equivalent to a primary stage heavenly nascent realm or around level 80 to 84, he knew how strong the array should be.

Luckily for him, the person riding the black dragon seems to want to toy with them.

Hence he did not fully attack them yet but caused them trouble by damaging their airship.

After Shin Jiao finished altering the setting of one of his handguns, he runs out of the cabin and seeks Aiya Wine. She is the one he is close with and decided to trust her.

He saw her on the deck shouting and commanding the rest of the people to repair the damages on the ship.

"Lord Aiya… Here take this…" Shin Jiao suddenly appear beside Aiya and handed her a black object.

When Aiya saw the object, her eyes suddenly glitter in surprise. This is because she can feel something from that black object. It\'s kind of like something really powerful is inside of it.

She and the other two lords already knew how crazy are Shin Jiao\'s kinds of stuff are. Even those from the Ta\'al city wanted to take him away from them and let him join the craftsman association in the city. This is because of the object that he used to destroy the demonized high elf. They all saw what happened back then.

But due to the advice of the three high lords that were assigned to Vitol town, the saint ruler decided to let Shin Jiao go back to Vitol town. His growth and potential in crafting are unlimited, and the group knew that there is a possibility that he would be changed once he stayed in the city.

Hence they all let him go back and decided to monitor his growth and potential.

So upon receiving the black object, Aiya and the other two lords who saw it knew that it would be a very useful weapon against their enemy.

Shin Jiao then instructed them on how to use it.

While this is happening, the high lord man sitting on top of the black dragon while dodging multiple attacks already has his attention towards what is happening on the deck. He saw the object and even at his distance he could feel that something is wrong with it. Something dangerous, something that is intimidating.

Even the black dragon seems agitated for some unknown reason.

With a nod of her head, Aiya Wine turns towards the man and with a smirk on her beautiful face lifted her hand and directly pointed the barrel of the handgun towards his direction.

The man immediately feels threatened and wanted to evade but who would have known that Aiya Wine has already grasped the technique on how to use the weapon through Shin Jiao\'s simple explanation.

"Three shots… only three shots…" she muttered.

Boom!

A loud sound reverberated in the air and even rocks the airship they are in.

Everyone in the ship immediately docks down and subconsciously covered their ears.

Aiya Wine who is holding the handgun took two steps back and had a disbelieving expression on her face. The attack was very powerful that when she feels the impact she even used her power to try and stabilize her footing but she was still unable to do so.

She also feels the large drain of her power upon using the handgun and felt somewhat weakened.

But what shocks her the most is what has happened to the flying figure.

The man was thoroughly taken aback. Even though he knew the danger of the weapon, he did not expect it to be that powerful.

Luckily for him, he dodges by reflex and avoids his body from getting destroyed. However, his left hand was wasted and was obliterated by that single powerful shot. It was too fast that even though he already covered everything within his domain, he still was not able to dodge.

With a pained look in his eyes, he glared at the ship.

He was just a paid thug who escaped the human settlements and decided to live deep within the forests. The offer of that hooded person was too tempting that he has no choice but to fulfill it. His goal in this trip is to rob the ship and do whatever he likes to those people on the ship.

As someone who lives by his words, he will not take anything that the robed person asks him, but he would just play with his target.

And who would have known that this would happen to him?

He knew that if he dies, the authority of the city from which he fled would surely be able to catch him. So he cannot die. However, his arm… one of his arms was destroyed and he needed someone to pay this humiliation back.

His eyes landed on Aiya Wine… her beauty would be enough for him to enjoy. But he didn\'t want a powerful female as a hostage. It would cause him too much trouble. Then his eyes landed on the object in her hand, then at the young man who handed it to her.

An idea lit his mind up and decided on something.

With a creepy smile on his bloody face caused by his own blood, he wields his weapon and urges the black dragon to attack.

But soon, he discovers that the black dragon has gone weaker. Then he saw that on the left side of its neck is a wound with blood gushing out from that place.

"Damn it!" he cursed and did not think anymore.

He guided the black dragon and immediately dives down towards the airship. Aiya Wine wanted to shot again, but the weapon and her energy are still not ready. If she uses it again, there is a tendency that the weapon would consume her energy and she could lose consciousness which is not an ideal outcome for her.

Suddenly, Viva Ro which is one of the lords in this trip extended her hand and grabs the weapon. She knew the condition of Aiya and did not want her to be in danger. Though she is not as powerful as Aiya, she knew that the weapon could augment her strength to defeat the enemy.

After taking the weapon she suddenly took aim, but the man was too fast for her to react and saw the black dragon suddenly spewing a tongue of blue flame from its mouth.

"Defensive measure!" shouted Jin Jo Long as a thin white barrier covered the ship.

But it was still too late, though it was able to block the dragon\'s breath, the man grabs the opportunity to land on the ship by banking on a small hole created by the impact.

Everyone was on tenterhooks upon seeing the powerful high lord. But their bodies are unable to move anymore as they are now under his powerful domain.

But he knew that the three lords would be able to break it, so he did not waste time. As soon as he landed, he dashed forth and then grabs Shin Jiao.

It was too late for the three lords to reach this moment. Before they knew it, Shin Jiao was already taken by the man who suddenly vanished.

"No! Shin!…" Aiya Wine shouted, but she is helpless at this point.

She clenches her fist and a worried expression appears on her face. Though she knew that Shin Jiao would not die, still she did not want him to suffer.

After all the time she spent with him, she has already treated him as one of her closest friends. With worry in her eyes, she tried to look around to try and find a glimpse of his and that man\'s figure, but to no avail.

"Relax, he would be fine. That young lad is not simple…" Jin Jo Long said to comfort her.

He saw the reaction of the young man at that time. He somewhat knew that the target of the man suddenly shifted to Shin Jiao when he saw the powerful artifact that Aiya Wine used. However, what dumbfounded him the most is the slight smile that appears on the young man\'s mouth when he was taken without resistance.

For some unbelievable reason, he thought that Shin Jiao purposely did not resist being a captive.

"I\'m sorry… I wasn\'t able to take a correct aim…" Viva Ro apologizes as she too was affected by the domain of the enemy and froze for several seconds.

"It\'s fine… We should just trust on him…" Aiya Wine who has a helpless look on her face said.

As the ship continues its journey, Shin Jiao on the other hand did not move while being held by now one-armed high lord. He is being constrained by the high lord\'s domain, but as a domain user himself and someone who has a powerful psychokinesis ability, Shin Jiao could actually move and fight against the domain of his opponent.

But the problem is his enemy right now is very strong. Plus he doesn\'t have any bullet to siphon the enemy\'s strength. As his enemy is a human, he could not use the bullet that could siphon shadow energy. Instead, he needed to use an essence siphon or the yin and yang energy void to be able to fight against this being.

However, what has grabbed his curiosity and interest is not escaping or the power of the person abducting him.. But instead, it is the possibility of having to discover another immortal cave.
