Chapter 1125

…
"Cousin… This… this is going to change a lot of things… this nephew of mine… I… I don\'t know what\'s going on in his mind…" Xin Han said while looking at the video recording crystal.
He has been playing the images he has recorded over and over again. And it made him feel excited every time he sees it.
This is because... what he is playing right now is the video of him practicing his swordsmanship. The moving images are clear and that he could even hear the sound. It was truly a fascinating new item which he knows will be very useful in the future.
"Imagine if my soldiers have one of these and a shared Mule… we did not have to wait for days before receiving information on the battlefront. We can already see the number of soldiers and the enemy… Hahaha… This… this is surely a meritorious achievement for that small guy…"
"Sigh… but you cannot expose him yet. You know how timid that nephew of yours is. He prefers to be working in the shadows… to be the behind the scene guy." Xin Jong said as he shakes his head.
As a father, he knew the temperament of his son the most.
…
The next day…
Xin Ja arrives at the front of the Ogden academy before 5 am. As he arrives, he could already see many people already boarding the carriages.
"So we are going to use carriages?" he muttered.
"I guess that is the reason why it takes about a week to arrive in Yanzhing town…"
In his mind, he is thinking that they could use some beasts to fly. But remembering that flying beasts might be feasible, but they could not carry heavier objects. So in the end, carriages are still the best way to travel when carrying many things.
"Well… you can run if you wanted to…" someone suddenly said from behind him.
A familiar person walks beside Xin Ja and stood on his side.
"Watch your back… little boy…" Ji Taiyon said with a sneer as he walks past Xin Ja.
Xin Ja feel a bit angry, but he did not mind this as long as they did not do something that could provoke him further.
And so, the Ogden Academy War Games team left the town and began their long travel to Yanzing Town.
While traveling through the rough road, Xin Ja could not help but think of ways on how he could travel this rough road in the future. Using carriages is by far the best way for now. But in his mind, he could already see the many types of transportation he had seen from his unique vision.
And so while sitting in the carriage, he closes his eyes and then began opening the window screen and searches for the transportations. Many different types of transportation appear which fascinates him. The one that awed him the most if the metal object that could fly in the sky.
If he could create such an object he did not have to wait before he could become a Shen to be able to fly. In this world, only Shens are able to fly freely in the skies.
Then suddenly, he saw something which he remembers…
"This… these are single-person flying devices." He thought as he saw a gear.
"Hmm… Controlling the wind would be easy like this… but the problem is the consumption of Ki…"
He then began to look at the many other possibilities which fascinated him.
Xin Ja did not notice that it was already nighttime and the carriages has already stopped traveling. The students have left the carriages and have eaten their dinner while he continues browsing through the files.
…
"Hey, have you seen Xin Ja?" asked Yao Mai Lin.
The student shrugged his shoulder and shook his head.
Yao Mai Lin frowns and continues looking. She then began to search through the carriages and finally found what she has been looking for.
"What is this guy doing?" she thought as he watched Xin Ja cross-legged on the carriage as if meditating.
"Hey… Are you okay?" she asked as she shakes his shoulder.
"Ahhh… What?" Xin Ja was a bit surprised from being shaken.
"Are you okay?"
"Ah… Yes… I… I was just taking a nap."
"Sigh… Here… Eat your dinner first…" she said as she handed him a small bowl of food.
"Thank… thank you senior…"
"You\'re welcome…"
"Hmm… I guess you really could not fit in with the others…" she said with a smile.
"I\'m fine with it. I\'m used to being alone." Xin Ja said as he take a bite.
"Sigh… I just hope that we can at least win against the Skymountain School. That way we can be sure of getting at least 10th place." she said with a deep sigh.
"I know we can do it as long as you lead us… Senior…"
"Hihi… Brown-noser…" she said with a smile.
"Hehe…" Xin Ja also laughed while scratching his head.
Talking to Senior Yao Mai Lin is almost like talking to Yao Xue… Xin Ja could feel at ease with her too, just like with Yao Xue.
The two began chatting, but unknown to them a pair of jealous eyes are watching.
…
The travel of the group continues, and Xin Ja has already felt being ostracized by the group. But what made him a bit uncomfortable are those that are doing this in secret. Every time there are people who would be close to him, those people would threaten them to get away from him.
And this has made him feel a bit uncomfortable.
But anyway, he did not care after all he is currently learning from his unique vision something that is more interesting.
On the 3rd day of their journey, the group stops at a lakeside.
The view is fascinating and there is actually a small settlement in this area. The settlements are a group of merchants that decided to stay in this place and sell the products coming from the lake.
"This lake is very beautiful… and very clear… Look, I could even see the creatures inside the lake…" one of the students said while looking at the lake.
But when they noticed some gigantic fishes and other monsters inside, they feel a bit afraid.
No one knew why the lake surface is transparent and very clear, but one thing is for sure… no one would dare go to the lake and fish.
Those that wanted to fish are using a unique way to catch the fish.
They are using the trees in the lakeside as a fishing rod. The students watch as a group is preparing their bait and working on the tree.
They saw people bending a tree over and attached at the top of that tree is a long string. That string is attached to a piece of bait that was thrown into the lake.
Splash!!!
It did not take long before the tree suddenly was released and the long string was dragged out of the water along with a 4-meter long silvery fish.
Bam!
The fish hits the land and it quickly losses its life in an instant.
Without hesitation, the group quickly made their move and work with the fish. It only takes a few minutes before only bones are left.
"That was fascinating…" a student commented.
Meanwhile, at this time, Xin Ja is sitting on a tree stump near the forest. He is… as usual… calmly learning how to create transportation for himself. It was actually very interesting for him so he began to try and learn more about this lesson.
But then suddenly, he felt something tugging on his body. When he was about to react, he was already grabbed and his head was covered by sackcloth.
He knew that a group of people have nabbed him.
He could not struggle as his strength is not sufficient to overcome his opponent. He is already shouting but it seems that no one could hear him.
His mind began to panic and from his unique vision, it is showing his heart rate and the condition of his body.
"Relax… I have to relax…" he thought as he gathered his wit before him.
Suddenly he feels that the people are tying his hands and feet up. He is already shouting, but then he suddenly noticed that the sackcloth covering his head is actually covered with runes.
"Damn it! Are they trying to kill me?" he thought as he felt fear in his heart.
Suddenly, with a thought, a bone filled with runes appears in his hand. But before he could activate the rune, he suddenly feels the people around him leaving.
He has no clue who took him, or what is happening, but it seems that he was left somewhere.
And so, without hesitation be quickly activated the bone rune. This is to protect himself if ever something should happen or attack him.
From the way he could feel it, it seems that he is in a grassy place and the ground is a bit sandy.
His expression turned ugly when he tried to feel more of the sandy ground.
