The Geared Immortal

Chapter 316 - The Great War Of The Races 19



Chaos, death, and destruction Part 2

/*unedited*/

While the generals and leaders of the human and beast-men allied forces magnificently walk forward to assist the war. Many eyes are looking at them with great admiration and reverence. These people have been fighting beside them ever since the war began a couple of months ago. And now in this final battle against the demons, they once again stood at the top and would lend their powers to the struggling soldiers. This is the cause that the morale of everyone began to skyrocket.

In this war, the performance of the mortals are eye-catching and truly admirable. Their 'ships' and 'armors' are amazingly efficient in fighting against multiple enemies. Whether on the ground or in the air, they are truly a force to be reckoned with.

Plus the communication and monitoring technology was given by these mortals in support of the war. Hence this is the time that the respect of the cultivators towards the mortals began to rise.

But one could not deny the bloody consequence of the war. Many have already fallen and many more are dying one by one. However, the soldiers still push on holding to that hope that their loved ones at home would not fall in the hands of these demons.

Right at this time, a beautiful woman is calmly walking towards a room. She is Ling Ya the array expert.

For the whole day, she was busy making arrays for the ships and making talismans for the cultivators that her Qi has been spent. So she walked back to her quarters to rest.

"Mommy! You're back! How about dad?" a small boy walked towards her as he threw himself in her hug.

When Ling Ya felt her son's warm hug, all the fatigue in her heart was lifted immediately. She is truly thankful for the innate ability of her son. He is her source of strength in these chaotic times.

"Your dad is fine. Don't forget how powerful he is."

"Mom… How about brother Shin? Will he be alright?"

"Sigh… I don't know… But we should be thankful to him. Without him, this war would be a losing one."

"Really? Why is that? Is brother Shin more powerful than dad?"

"It's not about power, it's about how he unite our forces into one by using something they called technology."

"Oh, you mean this?" little Hao Fu showed a small crystal-like device in his hand.

When Ling Ya saw it, she was amazed. Unlike the one she bought, the phone in his son's hand is actually more sleek and beautiful. They talked and then played with the device as Ling Ya rested and recovers her Qi.

In this war, everyone has their own roles and expertise. And each hand is important in their fields of expertise. This is the biggest difference between the demons and the allied forces. In fact, in the old days, the cultivators would also fight like demons. Without proper coordination and delayed communication.

While the Great War at the front is happening, another demon army has already marched for hours until they reached the first border fort. This is their first target as it is a small fort and seemingly easy to destroy.

Within a few kilometers, the demons began setting up the shield breaker cannons. However, unknown to the three figures are traveling within their midst.

"Shin, they are preparing to attack the weak-looking Fort," Agnes said in a low voice.

"*Chuckle… do you think that fort is weak looking?" Shin Jiao asked with a sneer.

"What do you mean?" Agnes asked in confusion.

"You see, the exterior might be weak but the interior of the fort is very strong. It is made of…" Shin Jiao explained but suddenly stopped.

"What? What is it made of?" Agnes asked in curiosity.

"Something is wrong with the fort." Shin Jiao said with an alarmed tone.

"What happened?"

"The fort is actually empty… I can't see any spiritual Qi or thermal energy of any living person." Shin Jiao muttered as he uses his goggles.

Ever since Shin Jiao began crafting, he would always improve and upgrade the ability of his goggles. So now it can detect and reach up to 10 kilometers.

"We have to stop the launch of those cannons. If not then the fort would be destroyed. Even the holy force field is also down." Shin Jiao muttered.

"What really happened in there?" he thought as he feels a bad premonition deep within his heart.

"Let's just focus on stopping the cannons then. But if we do that, then we would be exposed." Agnes said feeling a bit conflicted.

Their purpose in infiltrating the camp is to kill the demon generals and then make the demons scatter. That way they can minimize the damage. The three of them cannot face more than 100 thousand demons on their own, so assassination is the only key for them to succeed.

"Hey, why not just kill the generals and get this over with," Agnes suggested.

Shin Jiao smile at her simple idea. However, how to divide the seemingly united generals is the problem. The twenty new generals commanding the 100 thousand demon army are inseparable as they would always be near each other.

However, not near enough to wipe them out in one blow. While thinking, Joe Wang suddenly had an idea.

Although it was a bit despicable, in this warring time, honor and pride are secondary only to live. Shin Jiao as a spy does not fight honorable in battle. And many in his missions he would kill his target sneakily. This is also one of the many reasons why he stopped being a spy… honor.

But right at this moment, they need to employ such tactics to stop the cannon from firing and breaching the fort.

While the demons are busy preparing the cannons three figures are also busy doing something all over the base. Because the three would always change their appearances from a wild demon, a red orc, or a troll, this made them inconspicuous in the eyes of the pure ones.

Meanwhile, inside a large carriage being carried by ten giant ogres, the twenty generals are currently in a meeting. This huge and spacious carriage is their mobile command center where the demon army could send their commands to the hundreds of thousands of demons around them.

"How long will it take before the cannons can be deployed?" asked a young demon general with a handsome look on his face.

"Two hours at most… but from the looks of it, it seems that the humans have not discovered us yet. Plus our spies have told us that they would make everything easy." Harval said as he sits in a relaxed position on his chair.

"General Harval your methods are truly despicable. Those people on the other side seem to be too hungry for power that they are able to agree with our conditions. However, they didn't know that we plan to go back on our words. Hihihi…" another demon general said with a laugh.

"Haha… humans are truly gullible. Although they are wise and intelligent, they have a weakness for power."

"Aren't we all…"

"Hahaha…"

The demon generals began laughing their hearts out while eating the meal in front of them. Unknown to them on one of the trays, there is a small black thing that is sticking inconspicuously.

Shin Jiao has approached one of the pure ones who are serving the generals. As if he wanted to ask for food, when he was a few meters away he threw a nail size listening device at the side of the tray.

"So… there is a traitor." Shin Jiao muttered.

Then suddenly his mind began to think of the possible reason why the traitor began to work with the demons. He didn't want to know who, because it would be too late before they discover the identity of the person.

But he needs to see the possible motive of the traitor to stop their next move.

From the words of the demon generals, the traitor seems to be after power. If that is the case, only the imperial family or the kingdom rulers are the suspects. So from the looks of it, their target would only be two people, the beast clan emperor or the 2nd prince of Xi.

However, when Shin Jiao thought of those two people, his heart skipped a beat. The beast clan emperor is easily replaced. It is known that the beast clans do not truly hold any power to rule all. They rely on their own race's power and strength.

So the possible target is the 2nd prince of Xi.

This is where Shin Jiao's headache would begin. If his conjecture is true then the traitor would be…

But still, it seems impossible because at that time both are being controlled by beast.

And so the mysteries are still unsolved. However, at least he already has an idea about the traitor's plans.

Suddenly, Shin Jiao's mind was startled when a loud sound coming from the fort echoed through the air. Then black smoke began rising as a huge fire began to engulf the fort.

Then on his ears, he heard a familiar voice.

"They have already started… Let's fire the cannons. Go! Quickly! Haha…" said Harval in an excited tone.

When Shin Jiao heard this, his expression became serious.

As he looks at the horizon and a large number of demon army they are in, he didn't feel worried or anxious. Instead, he was as calm as a lake like everything is falling in his plans.

Suddenly, two figures appear beside him while giving him dry coarse bread and a cup of dirty water.

Agnes and Silvira nodded their heads in confirmation.

Seeing this, the calm expression on Shin Jiao's face turned into a grin.

Then from his hand, a red button appears as he said.

"Let's begin."
