The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1253

(Unedited)

…

Creatures that look like wingless dark brown imps came out of the dark void. The short goat-like horns protruding from their foreheads and their bloodshot reptilian eyes made them look menacing. Their skin is like the rotting bark of a dead tree, and their height is not that tall and only around 4 feet.

With black claws as long as their fingers, the wingless demon imps have already brought chaos and fear to their surroundings.

Eeek! Eeek!

The noise they made is irritating to the ear and one could feel a slight headache when listening to their constant chatter.

Soon, a group of them has already walked out of the void and began looking at their surroundings with extreme curiosity.

When one of the spotted some figures running away from the scene, it suddenly shrieked loudly.

This has immediately garnered the attention of the rest of the imps.

Right now, there are around 30 of them and the aura they exude could make one feel the savagery in them.

"Aaahh! Help! Help us!" shouted someone as they run away from the creatures.

The wingless demon imps spread out as they chase after their prey like hungry beasts.

The savagery in their eyes indicates that they are out for blood and only their own demise can stop them.

As the chaos ensues, the wingless demon imps began killing those that they get their hands on and began devouring their flesh and blood with relish.

The aroma and the blood they are eating made them unable to stop as they enjoy the meal that they are having.

Crunch! Crunch! Slurp! Slurp!

The sound of crunching bones and blood being sucked by the demon imps resounded in the streets.

Those that are unlucky lose their lives, and those that are fast enough were able to escape.

The scene was truly horrible and gruesome that one would feel their stomach-churning while watching the horrid scene.

At this time, a black car suddenly speeds up on the road, and on it are 3 people. The black car looks like a 1918 pierce-arrow model 66, and on its back protrudes some kind of handheld cold weapons.

Then the car screeched on the brick road and immediately stopped.

As the car stopped the 3 people inside jumped out and quickly grabbed their weapons which were placed at the back of the vehicle.

"Those are wingless demon imps! They are vicious and fierce… Their sharp claws would always cause the death of many awakened. But us rank F can still defeat them as long as we are wearing strong armor!" one of them who has a big and fast build is holding a thick red-covered book to introduce the enemy.

The three people are wearing leather armor. Although with one glance, one cannot truly tell the value of their armor, one should not look down on it.

The armor that the three guys are wearing is made from special demon skin that is as strong as steel. It has cost them a lot of money to buy such armor, but because of this, they felt confident in facing the wingless demon imps.

"Alright, let's kill them all!" shouted a tall and handsome young man which seems to be their leader.

On his hand is a sword that is half as tall as himself. The craftsmanship of the sword is really good and one could tell that it is made from bone.

He unsheathes his sword and points at an imp.

He suddenly dashes towards that imp. His speed is only ordinary, so the imp just looks at the young man with its mocking gaze.

However, as the young man swings the sword in his hand, the imp's expression turned hostile. It wanted to quickly dodge, but it was already too late.

Though the awakened young man is only an F-rank, he still has the strength of an F-rank awakened which is as strong as a 10th level Ki fighter.

Swoosh!!!

Shwiik!

The imp was bisected into two from its groin to its head. The bone sword cleanly slices the demon imp into two, and it shows how sharp the bone sword really is.

The fat young man did not waste and quickly put the thick red-covered book in his satchel and quickly brandish his large hammer.

As he slammed it down, the imp who is busy eating its prey was squashed like a pancake on the brick road.

The other guy holds two daggers the length of his forearm. He is holding the daggers in a reverse position as his body quickly runs towards his target.

When he passes by the demon imp, the imp was already decapitated.

The battle between the three awakened and the demon imps intensified as the demon imps began to gang on the three.

One gash after another appears on the body of the three F-rank awakened as the sharp claws of the imps tore through their soft skin.

Although they are already awakened and strong, most of the skin on their body is not that strong and is like that of a normal person.

And so many wounds appear on their body as they try to fight off the demon imps that are pouncing on them from everywhere.

"These demons! If we continue like this we will surely die!" shouted the fat man.

"Yes, let's just run away! We cannot save everyone in this place!" their leader shouted as he suddenly takes a few steps back.

He could already feel the stinging pain on his body where the gashes of wounds are.

The demon imps in front of him lick their finger and showed frenzied expressions and shrieks as they feel the euphoria of awakened blood.

When the 3 young men saw this scene, their hearts are immediately filled with horror and fear.

"Damn this! Let's escape!" shouted the other one with the two long daggers.

Has the one to quickly retreat and jumped back to the parked car on the brick road.

The other two also followed and the frenzied demon imps are already chasing behind them.

The guy with the two daggers started the car and quickly floored the gas pedal. The car screeched on the brick road and sped towards his two companions. The two both jump to the sides and dodge the ramming car.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The car smashed a few demon imps and sent them flying.

Then the two awakened quickly and hopped onto the car as it speed away from the area.

Right at this moment, a mother and her child were about to cross the road while running away from a chasing demon imp.

"Watch out!" shouted their leader.

But the driver is busy looking behind them so he was not able to notice the two figures.

Although he quickly controlled the car's steering wheel, it was already too late as the side of the car hits the woman.

Bam!

She was quickly sent flying to the side where the demon imp chasing after her is.

A wide grin appears on that demon imp as it opened its eyes with glee.

Although startled the car did not stop as it speeds away.

Meanwhile, the mother is now lying on the brick road with blood pouring profusely from her forehead.

The demon imp slowly approached the woman as it showed an ugly grin on its ugly face.

Its razor-sharp teeth sent shivers running down the spine of the barely conscious woman.

As her eyes closes, all she could think of is her son who was also thrown away after she got hit by the speeding car. She did not mind dying as long as her son would be able to live.

She already lost her husband 3 years ago when the day that the strange portals appears from this world. At that time, her husband is just coming home from work and he had called her on their landline. She excitedly prepares their dinner and waited in front of the dining table with their 2-years-old son.

Who would have known that what would greet her are the devastation that would engulf the city?

In that incident, she learned that one of the casualties was her husband.

She was truly devastated and almost lost hope.

But because of her son, she persevered. She worked hard just to give him a good life even though her husband has already died.

She did not want to die, she still need to do many things for her son. Her son still needs her.

As she struggled to not close her eyes, her tired and weary body is already slowly giving in.

But then suddenly she saw in her blurred vision a figure that came rushing towards her from the opposite side of the street.

She did not know if it was all a dream or reality, but she could see that figure easily defeating the monster that is about to devour her.

"Mam! Mam! Do not fall asleep… Listen to my voice… I will help you… Okay?! Do not give up!"

She heard him talking while she could feel a warmth coming from her body.

In her subconscious mind, she said to herself.

"Hmm… What a nice and warm young man…"
