Chapter 856 - Dark Apostle
Chapter 856
(Unedited)
…
After creating the new flying ship, and the TV screen, Shin Jiao has set his eyes on creating another thing.
These days he's been idling in the ship and would just casually talk to Luna, Maga, and the others in Ji village. He learned that the progress in installing the communication relay to the Dragon's territory is doing particularly fine though they seem to have encountered an opposing clan.
After a few battles and confrontation, they discovered that the opposing clan learned about what the humans have been creating and wanted on in their territory too. And so, the group did not have a choice but to employ more men and dragonkin to hasten the installation of the relay points.
The progress is a bit slow because of the many complicated terrains and troublesome talks, but it was doing great.
Plus he discovered that the virtual world is slowly being shaped by Luna Halil and Maga Luan. Those two are working hard to improve the virtual world to an actual likeness of the real one. They dare not neglect these matters as they knew that this place would hold great value in the future.
After learning a lot of things and changes in the Immortal Land, Shin Jiao was once again bored.
So he decided to look around and saw something that he could do.
He noticed the carriages and rough it is to ride them. Plus the steeds pulling them are fine but inefficient. So he began to think and a radical idea came to his mind. At first, he wanted to make a car, but the terrain and the roads in this place are not ideal for cars.
Hovercraft on the other hand is also not an option because of the many trees and lush forest.
And so, he through of mechanical beasts, and there are two in his mind, a large ostrich-like and a horse-like machines.
Upon thinking up to this point, Shin Jiao became excited as he began his work. He became engrossed in his work that he did not notice the time flew by.
Im Jae is a bit disappointed at this point as it seems that no matter what she does, she could not get the attention of Shin Jiao. She even confided with Nariz Gumal who just consoled her but offer no help at all.
2 days have passed and Shin Jiao walks out of his room.
"Master, you're finally out… How was it?" Im Jae who is always waiting for him said with a beautiful smile.
Shin Jiao is feeling a bit excited and just smiled at her.
"Come with me, I created something new." Shin Jiao said as he walks to the deck of the ship.
When he was on the deck, he waves his hand, and an almost 2 meters tall metal thing that looks like a hairless chicken appears.
Everyone is looking at it with curious gazes as they could tell that it is a beast made out of metal.
Shin Jiao hops on its back and checked the seats if it feels comfortable. Feeling that it was, he began to boot up the machine which produces a slight sound of gears working together.
The sound is a bit muffled which made Shin Jiao smile in contentment.
He then checks for the software initialization and then checked everything if it is fine. After he was satisfied, he grabs the handlebars in front of him which look like those from a motorcycle. After feeling that the grip is fine, he suddenly squeezes the throttle and the machine immediately moved.
Its body bends slightly forwards, and then its powerful metallic legs pushed the ground and speedily ran on the deck's surface. The mage guards who are watching this scene were all surprised. They did not expect that the metal creature would move so fast like a real beast.
Shin Jiao slowly controls the mech as he directed it to the edge of the ship. When it was about to reach the edge, he pressed something on his right foot and the mech jumps high in the air.
Everyone looks at it with agape, they did not expect that the metal creature is even able to jump that high.
Shin Jiao landed on the ground and with a wide smile on his face, he began to dash through the forest.
"That looks fun…" Axle Long who stood on the side has a wide smile on his face.
He is very interested in this new thing that Shin Jiao has invented. From the way he looks at it, if the mages could use that thing, then their scouting group would be faster and more nimble than they are right now.
"Master created another impossible thing…" Im Jae muttered with a happy smile.
"Sister, I want to ride that thing. I will ask the master to teach me how to ride it when he comes back." Im Ao said with an excited look on his cute little face.
Everyone has the same kind of expression on their faces as they watch Shin Jiao's figure vanished through the woods.
…
Shin Jiao did not know how long he was traveling and how far did he get because he was suddenly attracted by a loud sound of commotion as soon as he enters this part of the forest.
Riding the mech, he speedily went in the direction of the fight.
From the thick bushes, he is in right now, he is currently looking at a gruesome battle between a giant and a small black figure.
The giant has many wounds on its body, but it also gave the dark figure some bashing. However, no matter how the giant bashes the figure in a black cloak, it was to no avail.
It was as if that figure is an immortal that would stand after his body would be bashed to the ground. Then he would stand up and then take a bit of the giant in an instant and then dodge while liking his bloody lips.
"Is that guy a vampire or something?" Shin Jiao thought upon seeing the pale white face of the man in a black cloak.
As the battle continues, Shin Jiao did not interfere and just observed as the giant became weaker by the minute. It wanted to run and even began to howl in a strange sound, but the dark figure did not let it escape.
Little by little as if that dark figure is trying to torture the giant, the dark figure drinks its blood until the very last drop, turning the giant into a bag of bones.
"Hmm… He might really be a vampire. I guess even the Shadow Beings have their minions in this place…" he muttered.
Then suddenly the ground began shaking once again as if something big is coming speedily towards the location of the black-cloaked man.
"Hahaha… Come! Come! All of you! Become my sustenance!" the black-cloaked man shouted in the air.
Suddenly, he turned his gaze towards Shin Jiao's direction.
Upon seeing this, Shin Jiao just waves his hand in greetings with a faint smile on his face.
The man in black cloak frowned turning his blood-soaked face uglier.
Then from the forest, two giants with different physiques appear. One is a bit skinny, and the other is a bit fat. They look like normal people with three eyes. The fat one only covers his groin with a beast skin, while the other one is wearing some kind of beast skin leather armor.
"That stupid fellow now got his hands all tied up…" Shin Jiao muttered as he decided to continue watching this battle.
It did not take long when suddenly the two giants angrily attacked the man in a black cloak. They seem to be shouting curses as their expression showed angry faces.
The forest ground began to shake as they bashed and thrash everything in the area trying to hit the man in a black cloak.
Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has grown tired of this scene as those two stupid giants can't even hit the man anymore. With his quick movement and dodging the man dare not confront those large trees.
As the battle drew longer, the smile on the face of the man turned uglier as he began to take a bite of the two giants little by little.
The ecstasy he is feeling can be seen on his face as if he could savor the taste of a very delicious delicacy.
And this truly angered the two giants as their eyes turned red and they began to bash more forcefully even breaking the large trees they are holding as clubs.
"Hahaha… Now it's my turn!" shouted the man in a black cloak as he dashed towards the fat giant.
But before he could go near the giant a large hand suddenly blocks his path and he saw the thin giant suddenly swiping towards him.
It is trying to grab the man by its large hands.
But how could the man in black let this buffoon do this, with a quick movement, he suddenly dodge to the side?
However, the man soon discovers that something is wrong.
