The Geared Immortal

The ruin in the desert

/*unedited*/

"City Lord, they have already left a few minutes ago." a wolfman reported.

"Umm… That woman, are you sure about what you have seen?"

"Yes, City Lord… I am aware of her scent. I can never forget something when I smell one."

"Okay, follow them closely. I wanted to see what they planned to do."

After the wolfman disappears, the City Lord of Glow faced the direction where Shin Jiao and his group went to and muttered.

"The demon queen and a human… interesting… Hmm… What is on your mind?... my queen."

…

Clouds of dust followed the two hoverbikes as they glided through the endless sea of sand. The sun is already high up in the sky but it seems to not have any effect on the three people riding them.

"Hey, your majesty… You seem happy today."

"Hihi… Why won\'t I be happy? I get to have my own vehicle and free from your lecherous back."

"What? Why did I become lecherous? You are the one hugging me with gusto. Haha…"

"You\'re shameless!"

"Hahaha…"

"Did you hear that little Jinyu? Women are like that. They won\'t say that they are taking advantage of you. Instead, it would be you taking advantage of them. Hehe… So when you grow up, be always careful not to be taken advantage, okay?"

"Yes, Master Shin… Hihi…"

"Shameless! You… you…"

"Hahaha!"

The three happily travel through the endless sand while casually teasing and talking with one another.

Using a short wave radio on their helmets, Shin Jiao was able to communicate with Agnes with ease.

…

Three days have passed in a blink of an eye…

In a far distant lays a huge ruin of an old city. Large beasts can be seen on its boundary and some flying beasts that look like huge vultures are circling around the ruined city. From the looks of it, the ruined city has been there for hundreds of years are thick vines coming from somewhere covers the whole city.

Shin Jiao and his two companions are stealthily watching the ruin behind a huge rock.

"What do you think? Should we go around the ruin?" Agnes asked while observing the ruined city lying like a sleeping dragon from afar.

"If we go around it, we might encounter more trouble. Look behind that ruin, there is a deep ravine. We don\'t even know if we can get around it." Shin Jiao said as he handed his goggles to Agnes.

"Yi! This… this is awesome! This thing is neat. I can even see the creatures inside the ruin. Hey, can I have this?" Agnes suddenly ignorantly blurted as she excitedly tinkers with the goggles.

"Hey, give it back!" Shin Jiao didn\'t bother with her childish attitude.

However, as he was about to take the goggles, she immediately evaded and ran back.

"I want to have something like this. Make me one! Now!" shouted Agnes like a spoiled little brat.

Shin Jiao is already used to her attitude. It seems that there are two sides to her attitude. When she is surrounded by the demons, she would show a dignified and domineering aura. But when she is with people she is comfortable with, she would show a coquettish attitude and would act like a child.

"This old woman is still acting this way… she\'s cute though." Shin Jiao thought as he observes Agnes acting like a child.

Suddenly, her hand accidentally twisted a knob and then the vision in the goggles turned different. She was shocked to see that she is able to see through the rock as if it was not there.

She then adjusted the distance and intensity and then saw a very interesting thing. As she stood there, she noticed that she can see the layer by layer of the rock.

"This is amazing… Hey, Shin… you must…" suddenly her voice stopped.

In her excitement she turned her head towards Shin Jiao and with the X-ray vision of the goggles on, she accidentally saw him without a layer of clothes.

The sexy and tight muscles of Shin Jiao were fully exploded in her view making her jaw dropped. Although she had seen many naked men in her time, Shin Jiao\'s well-sculpted muscles and jade-like white skin is a feast in the eyes of a woman like her.

Then she subconsciously lowers her eyes and saw something that almost made her blinded.

The changing expression on Agnes immediately alerted Shin Jiao of what she is seeing. And when she lowered her gaze, he immediately turns around and covers his private parts, but it was still too late.

"Oh… wow…"

Her reddening expression made Shin Jiao felt a little aggrieved. He is a bit of a shy person and is not someone who likes to flash themselves in front of others. Even before, after he and his ex-girlfriend have s*x, both of them would still shyly cover themselves up before cuddling together. But now, this shameless woman is without shyness and would deliberately look at him like a hungry ghost.

"This is bad… if this goes on I would be eaten alive by her." Shin Jiao\'s figure suddenly vanished and when he appears the goggles are already in his hand.

When she discovers that her vision changed and the goggles are gone, Agnes immediately recovers from her stupor.

"Hey! Not fair! I want that back."

"No way, you are deliberately peeking at me."

"So what? You\'re a guy, why are you acting like a girl?"

"Hey, I say no… and it\'s…"

"…"

BOOM!

Suddenly a loud explosion echoed through the desert from the direction of the ruin. Then Shin Jiao and Agnes saw five people running outside of the ruin. Three of them are beast-men and the remaining two are humans.

The three beast-men are felines, although they look like a human, their pointer ears and the long tail behind their back shows their race.

As the five people ran out of the hole which should have been blasted open by a powerful force, a large creature is following them from behind.

When Shin Jiao saw the creature he can\'t help but suck in a cold breathe in surprise. This is because the creature is an animal that has been extinct on the earth, the T-Rex.

The only difference is that this T-Rex like creature is standing upright with a human giant like body.

Growl!!!

The five figures ran as fast as they could trying to get away from the creature which has slaughtered their teammates. However, no matter how hard they try it seems that their legs are not long enough to outrun it.

"That\'s strange, why won\'t they use their cultivation to outrun that thing." Shin Jiao thought as he observes closely.

"Can\'t you tell that there is a huge barrier in that place. Look over there…" Agnes gestured to a ripple in the air.

"Mana barrier?" Shin Jiao muttered.

"Umm… So you know about mana? How?" Agnes suddenly became interested.

"That\'s a secret… We must figure out how that mana barrier works and how it is able to suppress the cultivation of those people… If not, then we could end up like them." Shin Jiao said.

Then suddenly a loud cry of pain coming from the five people reverberates through the air.

"No! Brother! Help my brother please!" a cat woman shouted in plea towards her companions.

However, the other cat man who is with the two reluctantly turned his head and immediately ran away in fear.

But suddenly the two humans both are young men valiantly sent out a wind blade and a fire slash towards the huge creature.

Boom! Swoosh!

As the explosion rang out, the huge creature staggered. However, the young cat man in its mouth is already dead as the razor-sharp teeth of the creature cut his body into three parts.

With a flick of its head, the corpse on its mouth flew up and was directly swallowed under the huge jaw of the creature.

"No! No! Brother! My brother!" cried the cat woman under her already disheveled hair.

The two young men immediately grabbed her as they tried to escape the place.

Now the remaining four people are running for their lives as it seems that the creature\'s skin is impenetrable to either blade or Qi.

This made the four showed a helpless look on their faces as they frantically run for their lives.

After a few seconds of chewing, the creature then turned its huge head towards its remaining prey.

Growl!!!

After emitting its fierce aura towards his surroundings, the T-Rex like creature resumes its chase towards those small yet delicious delicacies with a hungry gleam in its huge eyes.

Each powerful stride from its huge legs would shake the ground under its clawed foot. The sound of its footsteps is like the sound of death getting closer and closer making its prey feel suffocated and choked.

"Run! Don\'t look back! Go! Go!" one of the young men shouted as he suddenly gritted his teeth.

His eyes are filled with a look of determination and resolution.

"Hey, what are you doing? My younger sister will not agree with this. You must come back with us!"

"It\'s okay! Tell your sister that I love her… Tell her that, she would always be in my heart."

The young man said with a valiant aura surrounding his body.

Then he suddenly stops running and turns around. He then took out his weapon which looks like a sickle.

"Brother! Till next time!" he shouted with a handsome smile.

"…"

"Those words of yours… Tell her that yourself."

Phew! Phew! Phew!
