The Geared Immortal 399 Chapter 396B

/*unedited*/

5 years ago…

In the cultivation land, power is feared and respected. The higher the cultivation of a cultivator, the stronger one is, the more respect and fear one can have. Power is the only rule that exists in this land where war, fighting, and killing is like an everyday occurrence.

The normal people in this world only live day after day trying to survive and being trampled upon by the strong and the powerful.

The rule of the jungle prevails as many mortals fell under the rule of the strong cultivators.

Mortals have always been looked down upon, as a race of lower status people.

On every planet or plane, racial and status discrimination would always exist, which is the reason why the cultivation land became a haven for the strong and a h.e.l.l for the weak.

But a few years ago, a small town rises from the borderlands inside the Daemon forest. The small town was known as Mortal Haven.

Not long later, the down grew into a big city and was called the s.h.i.+n County.

The unique aspect of the town is the mortals living with the cultivators and the people with a strange magic that can control the elements, called mages.

s.h.i.+n County produces unknown machines and weapons that's rival the proud cultivators. This became a threat to the proud and powerful.

But then before things got out of hand a new threat was found, the threat of the demons.

Because of this threat, the cultivation land became united to face a common enemy. Along with their longtime rival and enemy the beast-men, they combined their forces and fought against the powerful demon.

The war engulfs the land of Beastia where the demons have conquered first.

In the war, many heroes rise to challenge fate and many also fell. The blood of those who fell in these battles became the foundation of the peace that made the Beastia Land and the Cultivation Land united once and for all.

Although the discrimination still exists, a law was imposed on all of the 5 kingdoms in the Xi Empire. And this law is the reason why the empire grew more powerful and became an advanced nation of mortals, cultivators, beast-men, and the mages.

5 years have pa.s.sed since then…

And now, the Daemon forest is not a threat to the cultivation lands anymore, but instead a place to train the younger generations.

…

Those who detected s.h.i.+n Jiao's spiritual sense and the ones riding the mechanized mobile suits were immediately alarmed. This is because their senses detected someone or something more powerful in the vicinity.

Seeing the reaction of the beast, the cultivators, and the men in mobile suits, s.h.i.+n Jiao showed a sheepish smile.

In this tense situation, s.h.i.+n Jiao detected the beast that was hiding within the forest slowly backs away and stealthily left the area. So when he retracts his spiritual sense and just uses his absolute sense, everyone seems to have relaxed a bit.

Roar!!!

Since the beast sensed that the threat is gone, it immediately wanted to make its move against the humans who are trying to fight it.

It suddenly rushes towards the group making an earth-shaking sound in every step it made. The group of humans in front of it immediately escapes to the side.

"That thing is going berserk! Haha…" one of the cultivators shouted.

"d.a.m.n it, I'll stop its rampage you guys attack!" shouted one of the mechanized mobile suit which looks like a fat yet a bulky man.

The mech immediately rushes towards the beast and caught its head using the mech huge hands.

Bang!

The mech feet were planted deep to the ground as it slowly weakens the land dragon's charge.

"Do it now!" the man inside the mech shouted.

With his words, the combined power of the people around him began to bombard the giant beast's body.

The explosions and chunks of flesh began flying all over the place as the large beast's figure fall to the ground.

Behind the beast large amount of fire and ice spell also began flying which completely ended the beast's life.

With the death of the beast, everyone shouted with joy and the group landed to the ground and slowly approached the place.

"h.e.l.lo!" Mary greeted the others around her.

Many have a look of amazement and curiosity as they eyed the beauty in front of them.

"I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you guys!" She said while waving her hand.

"Yeah, nice to meet you too…"

"What is a beauty like you doing in this dangerous place?"

"Yeah, you were lucky that we are here training with the mages."

The people around her said. However, they showed no animosity towards the strange cloth woman.

"You guys seem to have different powers." She asked while eyeing the cultivators and the people riding the mechs.

"Oh, we are cultivators… and those guys are mech operators." A young woman said with a smile.

The expression of Mary seems a bit bewildered as she didn't know what the young woman is saying. Since she only knew about mages and other beings in the Mage Land, she is unaware of the cultivators and the rest.

"Where are you from, sister?" the young woman asked with a polite smile.

"Me, I came from… Mage Land," she said.

"Mage Land? That's very far… But the lights.h.i.+ps are not yet ready for operation. How did you?..."

"Hey, don't ask too much question. Who would like to store this thing?" said a young and handsome man as he steps forward.

His long silver hair flutters through the air as his regal appearance caught Mary's eyes.

"You are welcome to come with us to the city of Sands." He said.

"By the way, I am Prince Quan Li of the San Kingdom." The handsome young man added.

"That is a nice gesture, but I have to decline… Thank you for the offer though, maybe some other time then." She said as she turns around and gave everyone a mysterious smile.

Then suddenly, the figure of Mary vanished.

"Hey, we didn't have her name."

"It's Mary… Mary Anderson." One of the mages who talked with Mary replied.
