The Geared Immortal

Chapter 629

(Unedited)

…

For the ease of traveling, General Xang gave Shin Jiao a new identification plate. This identification plate could help him enter any kingdom, city, or town within the Golden Dragon Empire. However, in the course of his travel, Shin Jiao did not expect that this same identification plate would become famous all over the empire.

So as he extended the plate towards the guard checking at the gate. The guard\'s eyes suddenly went wide in disbelief.

2 weeks ago they receive a piece of news that has already spread throughout the empire of a famous miraculous doctor who would treat any illness without payment or any questions asked. What that doctor would only require are two things, information, and sick people.

So when the guard saw this identification plate, though he was skeptical, yet judging from the appearance of the young man, he is sure that this is the right person. This is the so-called miracle traveling doctor.

In fact, even in taverns and inns of every city, towns, or villages, tales of the miraculous traveling doctor are being spread. Unlike most empires, the Golden Dragon Empire has a more advanced way of delivering news. Their bird couriers are more disciplined and reliable than in the other empires. Hence these kinds of news are easily spread throughout the empire.

"You… you are the traveling doctor… Doctor Ji, right?" the guard suddenly asked in confirmation.

Shin Jiao just flashed the guard with a simple smile but didn\'t say anything.

The guard eyed Shin Jiao. Tall, handsome, simple robe, don\'t carry anything else… These are the things which he had heard from the news about the traveling doctor. Hence this confirms what he is seeing right now.

"Follow me please…" the guard said with an excited look on his face.

Shin Jiao did not say anything and just casually walked following the guard.

Soon they reached a courtyard with many guards and soldiers around. From one look Shin Jiao knew that this place is a military facility.

The guard cupped his hand to the person at the front wearing military armor. From Shin Jiao\'s knowledge, this person has the rank of Captain.

"Captain, a traveling doctor…" the guard said as he handed the identification plate to the Captain.

The captain just looks at the plate and nodded his head. The guard turns around and Shin Jiao suddenly saw the expression of the guard changing. From that friendly smile, it suddenly changes into a scowl.

As the guard walks out, Shin Jiao saw the captain pointing to the side.

"See those guys… they are like you. They are also that famous traveling doctor." The captain said with a wicked grin on his face.

"Do you think that we would fall for any tricks? Hahaha… We are not that stupid. However, if you can prove your medical skill, then… we can consider things through. But if not, then…" The captain said with a threat as he runs his thumb through his throat.

This gesture of his made those people standing at the side suddenly felt their knees gone soft.

Suddenly one of them grabs the opportunity to run. But as soon as he was about to take a step out of the gate a sharp arrowhead appears in front of his neck.

This made everyone shiver in fear.

"How… how could you do this to us? We are doctors! We treat people, why would you kill us for no reason?" one of the people being held inside the military garrison shouted with indignation.

"Wait… I am not saying that you are all fake. But there are some people that are taking advantage of the traveling doctor\'s identity. One of those people is that guy who just died. He is scum who has raped some women in one of the villages. If you are all real doctors, then you have no need to fear. But if you are not, as I said it… death. We won\'t let anyone tarnish the name of that person who is roaming around the empire and helping our people." The captain said with a hint of reverence in his tone.

And so after that, the captain did some test to those people and found a few of them who are impostors and was executed.

Shin Jiao on the other hand was let inside the city along with the others who have passed the test.

While inside the barracks, Shin Jiao noticed something. The weapons that the soldiers are carrying are unique. As he uses his psychokinesis ability, he suddenly found out that the blade of those weapons is covered with a red crystal fragment.

This made him feel a bit stunned and surprise at the same time. He did not expect that the capital is using such a weapon and he knew that this is the reason why they can at least stand against those demonic beasts.

Though he is not sure, there is a high probability that those crystals like things contain mystical powers. From the color, red, blue, white, and brown he could guess that those contain the fire, water, wind, and earth mystical powers.

Though interested, Shin Jiao did not stay to investigate more. Although they are powerful weapons, those are not useful to Shin Jiao in any way.

As he walked out of the garrison, Shin Jiao reached a crossroads. Everywhere he looks he could see different many people. As Shin Jiao observes his surroundings, he suddenly noticed a female figure. That figure looks familiar to him. As he tried to recall his memories the young woman walked closer while choosing some of the vegetables on a stall.

Suddenly a tall figure walks near the young woman and suddenly caught her dainty arm.

"Haha… Why if it isn\'t Miss Nian. I have been looking all over the capital city for you." the man said while a wide grin on his face.

The man looks like a hooligan wearing an animal skin vest on his burly body. The others with him look the same. The group is like barbarians in their appearance and the people who saw this scene immediately stopped from their tracks and turn around. Others pretend to have not seen anything and continue on their way.

Even the stall owner immediately grabs the vegetable on the young woman\'s hand and suddenly hid behind his stall.

"Let me go!" Ya Nian shouted as she tried to pry herself from the grasp of the guy.

"Really feisty indeed. This is the reason why our boss has his eyes on you for a very long time. He has been patient and tolerated you for so long. However, he could not hold on any longer. So today, you must come with us and be the mistress of our gang."

"Yeah, many women would die to have this privilege of being our mistress, why are you not happy?"

"That\'s right! Be thankful that our boss has his eyes on you…"

The others behind the man suddenly berated as Ya Nian continuously struggle.

"Thankful? You want me to be thankful to the person who beats my brother into a crippled state? Ha! I will choose to die than be his woman. Only a fool would go to that crazy bastard!" shouted Ya Nian as tears began forming at the side of her eyes.

When Shin Jiao saw this scene and heard those words, his heart suddenly felt a slight pain. He already remembers who this young woman is. She is the elder sister of Zhen Nian, the person who became his master when he had his first big battle against a powerful beast. At that time, Shin Jiao was in shamble and Zhen Nian and Rat Ling are the two people who helped him.

When he attacked the Nian family, he didn\'t found them and heard that his friend was vanished along with the older sister and the servant.

Now that he heard that Ya Nian\'s brother was crippled, anger immediately filled his heart.

Shin Jiao didn\'t know if they can still remember him or they are the same as the people in this land who have forgotten everything.

But as someone who was helped before, he immediately decided to help them.

As the burly man chuckled and wanted to drag Ya Nian away, a strong grip suddenly held his arm. Then before that burly man could react a cracking sound was heard.

Every one of his companions had their eyes wide open in surprise as they saw the burly man\'s face suddenly change.

Arrgghh!!!

The man shouted in pain as he lets go of the arm of Ya Nian and fall to the ground on one knee.

"You only know how to bully the weak." Shin Jiao just said with a grin on his handsome face.

When the companion of the guy saw this, they immediately decided to attack Shin Jiao.

"You bastard!"

"How dare you attack us? Die!"

The group shouted as they rush towards Shin Jiao. However, before everyone\'s eyes, the figures of those burly men began flying all over the place.

With just a kick and a punch, Shin Jiao sent those big and burly men flying. Then after that, he completely broke the arm of the burly man he was holding.

Shin Jiao showed a faint smile to the astounded young woman who is currently looking at him in disbelief. Shin Jiao didn\'t know what to say while looking at that slightly familiar face.

Though he didn\'t interact with this woman before, his master/friend truly respected and love this elder sister of his. And so he didn\'t know how to interact with her at this moment.

"You… you… are, you are that servant of my brother, Shin Jiao… right? How… how did you get to this place? Are you also vanished or condemned to this barren ground?" she asked as a complex emotion could be seen in her expression.

When Shin Jiao heard this, he knew that she still remembers him and that her memory is still intact. He has a lot of things to ask her at this moment, but suddenly he heard uniform footsteps coming towards their location. Shin Jiao immediately knew that these are the soldiers in patrol.

He suddenly grabs Ya Nian\'s arm and darted towards an alley.

As soon as they disappear, a group of soldiers immediately enters the area.
