The Geared Immortal

Chapter 993 - Creating The Passage (2)

Chapter 993

(Unedited)

A large group of people are currently assembled together in a hall and are currently discussing something in a hushed tone.

"Are we really going to go back?"

"Did they discover how to get out of this place?"

"Of course, what do you think the Mystique Shop is? It is not a normal merchant shop but someone who came from the immortal land. They are the only immortals that can use the power in this world."

"They have gathered us in here for something right?"

"I think they wanted to help all of us return…"

The people in the hall talked to each other in this manner as they are curious about the reason why they are called to this place.

In fact, the total amount of immortals found by the Mystique Shop people numbered more than thousands. However, they only called for the assigned leaders per group. These people came from the many mage towers all over every city and town in the Outer World and also those in the Inner Kingdom. The immortals are then sent to Main Arjing City for their settlement.

Everyone suddenly stopped walking when they saw the tall figure of Xiamen Gong walking on the stage.

"Everyone! Listen up! We have already found a way to open a planar gate or a passage between this world and the one outside… However, we are in a pinch of a problem." Xiamen Gong said and paused.

Upon hearing his words, the hearts of the people around him skipped a beat.

They have already expected such a thing, but are unsure how they could be of help in opening the planar gate.

And so they listen as Xiamen Gong began explaining the process of opening the gate.

"… And so, we needed your help to make sure that the gate opening would be a success. We just needed 4 individuals to open the gate. And after a few could pass through, we are going to stabilize the gate on the other side. That way we can ensure that the gate would stay open… You don't have to worry about anything after that." Xiamen Gong said.

Suddenly someone raise his hand and interjected.

"How can we trust that you would not leave us stranded in this place?" a young man asked with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

When Shin Jiao and the rest heard this, his eyes gleamed with annoyance.

He did not need to help these people in fact. He just wanted to tell them such a thing so that they could have a way back. However, it seems that this person thinks that his helping hand is his duty to them. That it is his obligation to save them without them doing anything.

But what made Shin Jiao feel more annoyed is that he heard a group of them suddenly voicing out their own opinion to reject the proposal.

Xiamen Gong who heard this turned silent while shaking his head in dejection. When he saw the reaction of Shin Jiao he knew that the latter is annoyed. He too is actually annoyed and if it was his old self, he would have already lashed out to those people. But ever since coming to this place, he has learned to hold on to his anger and control himself.

However, Vilma Song is different. She is as direct as she has always been.

"Oh, you all shut up!" Vilma Song shouted.

"I told you guys that they would react this way. You should not ask for their opinion on these things. Just grab four of them, and then use them as part of the catalyst. That way they will not annoy you this much." She said with a sneer on her beautiful face.

Everyone who heard her immediately turned silent.

"Miss Song! Even though you have saved us, we still have control over our lives. If you want them then come and get it!" shouted the man who objected a while ago.

The reason why this man wanted to object is because of the suffering he has been to for quite some time in this world before he was rescued by the people from the Mystique Shop. When he discovered that the shop is being managed by immortals who can wield mana, he was really jealous and at the same time resent those people who rescued him.

Why did they arrive late? Why did they not rescue them sooner? He has lost a few of his family members in this Land of Death which he dreaded the most and now he is blaming everyone around him as the culprit.

And so, he detests those people who are lording over others and did not want to follow their command. This is true especially to those arrogant heads of the Mystique Shop merchant group.

When he was sent as a representative, he has sworn to fight those people to show them his resentment and anger for their late response to his needs.

This is his own way of coping up with the loss of his family members. He needed to blame others so that he would not carry the guilt in his own heart.

But it seems that his luck is down even at this time.

As soon as he said those words, the eyes of Vilma Song suddenly erupted in a flare.

She suddenly draws the handgun on her side and was about to point it at the man.

But Shin Jiao was fast enough to stop her.

"Calm down…" he said while patting her shoulder.

"She is right… I was just kind enough to ask for your opinion, but in truth, we have no obligation to save you all. If we truly wanted to, we can go out of this place with just our original group without you guys. So if you truly did not want to, then so be it… Let's go." Shin Jiao said as he turns around and began walking down the stage.

The rest of the people behind him followed behind.

Everyone below the stage stood in shock at what Shin Jiao said. They all realized that what that man said is the truth. He has no obligation to save them and yet they were still saved by his group. And even returning outside is not their duty and yet they are kind enough to ask for their help.

Everyone realized that they have made a fuss out of mistake and were immediately worried. If those guys truly exited this place then would they all just die in here?

Feeling worried at this point in time, everyone immediately began to react.

"Wait! Please wait!" shouted a tall young female.

"Yes, could you please hold on for a minute? We… we did not mean to object you guys…" shouted another one.

Upon hearing those calls, Shin Jiao stopped from his steps and turn to look at the crowd.

"We… we agree! I will volunteer myself!" shouted the tall young female.

"Yeah, me too!"

"Me too!"

A few people suddenly began to volunteer in their own volition.

The man who first objected felt that the situation is not right and that he could not let these people just have it their own way.

He is filled with jealousy and resentment that his heart began to darken. His eyes slowly turned red.

On the stage, Shin Jiao has already noticed these changes and he quickly notified Vilma Song.

"Shot him now!"

Without a second thought, Vilma immediately pointed her gun at the guy and then squeeze the trigger.

At this time, that guy seems to have lost his mind as he suddenly leaps up in the air as claws began to form from his fingers.

And while his figure is in the air flying towards Shin Jiao's group, his face began to distort and is slowly turning into something ugly.

Bang!

Before he could reach the group, Vilma Song who has a sneer on her beautiful face already pulled the trigger.

The bullet hit the forehead of the man and blasted the back of his head open.

Everyone was silent and many are already running away from the scene.

"What is that?" Vilma Song asked as she suddenly noticed some weird worms crawling out of the man's bloody head.

Yemei Yin, who suddenly appears on the side, extended both of her hands as flame came gushing out of her palms.

The flame burnt the body into a crisp.

"This is bad… Those are cursed worms… We have to know where the other people living with this guy are right now." She suddenly said with a worried expression.

Shin Jiao know that this would be a problem. With this curse, he did not know who was infected and who are not.

So he suddenly gave out a command.

"Restrain everyone! We have to make sure that this thing is not spread throughout the city," he shouted.

With his words, the rest standing beside him quickly made their move.

"It seems that creating the passage would have to wait for a bit.." He muttered.
