The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1157

(Unedited)

…

"Go and kill these bastards from the Jimal kingdom! Enslave them all!" shouted a soldier in frenzy.

"Kill them all!!!"

"Let's destroy them all!"

The loud shouts of the soldiers reverberated in the air as they push their way through the broken wall. The situation is very critical that many of the soldiers from the Jimal kingdom are overwhelmed easily.

The chaotic battlefield became covered with corpses as the soldiers of the Glysko Kingdom advanced and have now poured out of the broken wall and into the ground where the soldiers of the Jimal kingdom are gathered.

But the momentum of the enemy is far too much for the soldiers of the Jimal kingdom that they were actually pushed back.

In the midst of this terrifying and dangerous situation, several soldiers from the Jimal kingdom rose up to the challenge and began slaughtering the enemy in front of them.

But still, this is not enough to drive the enemy back as they continue to pour inside the town like deadly ants entering through a small hole.

The chaos in the air almost snuffs out the hope in the hearts of the soldiers of the Jimal kingdom. They are not in a grievous situation that it made every turn and every action they made looks futile.

In the middle of their desperation and hopelessness, something suddenly happened.

Ka-boom!!!

A loud explosion and strong force suddenly emptied above 10 meters wide radius of space in the clump of soldiers from the Glysko kingdom.

Everyone saw the severed limbs and body parts flying everywhere which made the scene too horrifying to watch even for the soldiers in the front lines.

Ka-boom!!!

It did not stop there as another explosion rocks the walls outside and another large clump of soldiers was blasted to smithereens.

Before anyone could figure out what is happening, they soon could see black objects being thrown from inside the town walls and when that small black object lands on the ground, it would actually explode and cause wide area destruction.

The explosion is not the actual problem caused by that explosion. It was the small debris that would scatter everywhere makes that small thing more dangerous.

However, the downside of that small black object is that it would not choose foes and friends. It would actually hit everything in its surroundings and within the range of the shrapnel being flung everywhere even as far as more than 200 meters.

Several of the soldiers at the top of the wall were actually hit which made everyone realize that if they see a small black thing flying, they would need to quickly hide.

This scene has suddenly caused a commotion in the ranks of the Glysko kingdom soldiers. It made them begin to run everywhere in a panic.

Well, who would not be fearful of an invisible enemy?

The advance of the enemy soldiers halted and the ones left inside the town does not have any backup anymore as they began to fall one by one by the sword of the soldiers inside the town.

Death could be seen everywhere as corpses began to fill the ground.

"What is that?!" shouted the commander upon seeing the explosion from afar.

He could tell that his soldiers are getting killed. Even the heavy infantry that had just arrived in the area suffered heavy casualties.

"I could see small black objects being thrown from inside the town… it… it actually caused such destructive power…" an officer said with disbelief in his eyes.

Well, who would believe that such a small thing could kill a large number of their soldiers? That is not the worst, the constant flying arrows from the top of the walls made the number of their soldiers dwindle really fast.

"Retreat! Call the retreat!" shouted the commander upon seeing the scene where they could not push through anymore.

At this time, Xin Ja is panting heavily as he threw in panic all of the grenades in his inventory. He was too anxious that he did not even think twice to throw the grenades and not even consider the soldiers at the walls.

As long as his sharp hearing would hear the shout of the enemy calling for them to kill the enemy, he would throw in those directions.

In the end, he was able to wipe out a significant number of enemy soldiers while many are lying on the ground wounded in many parts of their bodies.

The only ones who have witnessed and knew this scene were those that saw him throwing that black thing. But they have no time to think it over as their minds are more focused on the enemy soldiers.

Out of the ten thousand soldiers of the enemy only a few thousand were left as they retreated to the previous town they have conquered.

…

That night the whole town celebrated as this is the first time the soldiers have claimed victory against the enemy.

The war of attrition from before has already expended their forces and resources that if the army with Xin Ja did not appear, then they would surely have fallen.

And now, they have a new lease in life, a new hope that they would be able to protect the town against the enemy.

But what baffled most of the soldiers is that who was that person who was throwing that small black thing?

Those who witness that person and saw him could not recognize him because of the chaos on the battlefield.

But they are sure that the person is dressed as a medic.

And so the search began on the mysterious person who singlehandedly drove the enemy with their tails tucked behind their butts.

Inside the meeting hall of the town where the officers are gathered, every officer is discussing the same thing.

"Who was that guy? I think he is not an ordinary soldier…"

"One of my men told me that the person is a medic…"

"That is impossible, how could a medic create such a thing? Maybe an alchemist…"

"But, I heard that the whole alchemists and apothecary members have hidden."

"What? They did it again? They are such cowards! The soldiers, runemasters, and medical masters are all outside fighting and those bastards are just hiding?"

"Well, they are the ones who created the potions, so… we cannot blame them."

"Yeah, we just have to go with their whims. We cannot know what would happen if those guys rebel against us…"

"Humph! If only… Grrr… Anyway, we have to find that person and inquire about those weapons… That would be a great advantage for us in this war…"

While the officers are in commotion inside the meeting hall, the person in question is sitting back in his tent while his hands are still shaking.

But his expression is not that of anxiety or fear just like before. Instead, he is showing a slight smile on his youthful face and his body and hands are shaking not because of fear, but because of excitement.

When Xin Ja discovered the result of his created weapon, he was a bit skeptical, but upon seeing the battlefield, he was amazed.

The death around him has already numbed his senses that all he could think of is the result and effect of the weapon.

His mind is already forming a new weapon that would not rely on his physical strength alone. Instead, he would use his Ki buster to shoot those grenades as it was called from the records of his unique vision.

"I… I think I should start working on this…" he muttered as he began taking out materials inside his ring and the black orb.

Soon, he busied himself in planning on how to upgrade the Ki buster.

After 2 hours have passed, Xin Ja walks out of his tent contented with what he has achieved inside.

He still needed some time to design the completed new version of the Ki Buster, but he is now feeling a bit hungry and fatigued.

So he quickly went to the mess hall in one of the buildings in the town.

When some of the medical masters saw him, they just nodded their heads while others just snubbed him. In this battle, they all think that Xin Ja was a coward because many saw him running inside his tent and thought that he hid there even after the battle ended.

And now within the medics, a rumor has spread of his cowardice.

When people saw him they began to whisper on unto another while looking in his direction.

When Xin Ja heard their words, he was a bit dumbfounded. He did not expect to hear such harsh words from the people around him. And those who heard the whispers are now looking at him with contempt.

They look down on his action of hiding while the battle is happening. They are now grouping him with those alchemists and apothecary that just hid until the battle ended.

They did not even create more potions, but instead, give an excuse that they could not concentrate because of the battle outside.

"If I did not take action, all of you would not have lived…" Xin Ja thought but bore it in his mind as he is too timid to say such words.

He knew that no one would believe him even if he said so otherwise.
