The Geared Immortal

…

Arnas did not expect that the battle against the human which is supposed to be an easy task for them turned into the demise of his companions.

Now, three of the generals of Yol-gar have actually died at the hands of the enemy.

They were warned that the enemy is strong and they knew that their preparation is perfect, but they just did not expect that their opponent was able to use many kinds of tricks in this battle.

As his large body began to sway towards the enemy, Arnas\' anger towards the young human also grew.

He suddenly lets himself be swayed and flew right at the human.

Then with both of his large hands on his back, he timed the strike to blow this bastard to smithereens with his powerful dual punch.

As soon as he neared Xin Ja, he quickly released his technique as a part of the dark energy in the air formed a gale as it charges at Xin Ja.

He did not expect that such a thing would happen, that his enemy still has the will to fight. But Xin Ja is quick to react as he lifted his right arm to block the attack.

But the force was too strong that it sent him flying to the mountainside.

Ka-Boom!!!

Crash!!!

Xin Ja\'s figure was embedded in the mountain creating a deep tunnel.

Arnas fell to the ground with an evil grin on his face. He did not want to take his chances and wanted to immediately kill the enemy before him.

With a quick leap, he arrives in front of the deep cave.

He tried to feel inside if the human is still alive but he felt nothing.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

But before he could do anything, he heard three gunshots.

This made him subconsciously look at his chest. There, he saw three large holes and one of them is directly over his heart.

How could he now feel the danger? How could we not feel the presence inside the hole? It was really impossible…

As his consciousness slowly fade, he could not help but said in a low voice.

"My lord… we failed you…" was his last words.

By this time, Xin Ja inside the tunnel is currently groaning in pain. A part of his armor is ruined and a part of his helmet is already exposed.

He carefully takes out a healing bottle and drinks it.

Then he takes a pill from another bottle and takes it.

Soon, his wounds slowly healed, and cracking sounds could be heard as his bones slowly returned back to normal.

20 minutes later…

Xin Ja\'s figure walks out of the hole and drags the huge body of Arnas to the location of the rune array.

As soon as he arrives at that place, he did not hesitate to throw the body of Arnas inside while he extended his left hand once again.

It took him a while before he finished absorbing the dark energy in the air and converting them back into chaotic Ki energy.

After gaining too much energy, Xin Ja almost jumps in shock after seeing the number of spheres in the second orb in his dantian.

"I\'ve gained a bit much this time…" he muttered.

He floated in the air and looks at the death of his enemies around him.

But his left hand is now still bleeding after absorbing such a huge amount of dark energy.

He knew that it would take time before it would heal, but for now, he has to return to the city.

"My armor is now toasted…" he muttered as he looks at his bio armor which is still recovering.

He released his armor and then takes out a normal breastplate and another helmet that looks like the ones worn by futuristic soldiers.

He armed himself, in preparation for the battle in the city. He did not know how bad the war has become, but he will make sure to help them no matter what.

…

At this time, on the other side of the planet, another war is also happening.

For some reason, the amount of Ki energy on this side suddenly lessened.

The powerful beings on this side of the planet find it hard to figure out what is happening.

Then all of a sudden, strange ant-like creatures began to appear and attacked the kingdoms and empires of the continent.

In the kingdom of Jimal, a treaty between Garion, Glysko, and Han is being held in the town located at the center of each kingdom.

This treaty is called so that they could combine their forces against the new threat that suddenly appear out of nowhere.

Though the kingdoms now have their own Mecha units, some of those ant-like creatures are very powerful. They are as strong as a Ki-Champion which has caused many problems for some of the army units.

A tall and tough-looking man wearing light combat armor stood at the podium while looking at the delegates below the stage.

"People of our kingdoms… We are now faced with great turmoil. The enemy is upon us and had just appeared out of nowhere. Many villages, towns, and cities have already fallen in their hands… The lack of chaotic Ki in the air makes it hard for our artifacts and Mecha suits to function… We now lack the fuel to fight this war…" he said while looking around.

"But we still have some hope… Our Alchemist Association\'s new head of the research department from Jimal kingdom will now show us a revolutionary pill that could assist us in this battle…" he then extended his hand and a young man steps forward.

This young man is actually the new husband of Rou Chenchen, Rong Wan.

His previous calm and modest look now change into a dashing and handsome figure.

One could see ambition in his eyes as he walked to that pulpit and proudly looks at the people below him.

With a slight smile on his face, he could not help but be proud of his decisions at that time.

Rong Wan was a very simple man. He became an alchemist because he loves alchemy. When he met Rou Chenchen, he knew that she was a genius and that she is someone that is unreachable to him.

But who would have known that an accident would lead her to become forgetful and be a failure?

But how could he let go of the goddess in his eyes?

At that time, he was very naïve and thought that even if she is not that good in alchemy anymore. He would love her and support her no matter what.

His feelings are true, and he truly loves her and then married her for that.

After their marriage, he suddenly discovered that her alchemy ability seem to have returned. He found this out when one day after working really hard, a year after their marriage… he put his bag on the desk.

The two already have a small little girl at that time and Rou Chenchen is taking care of her.

After putting to sleep their little girl, Rou Chenchen, she helped him relax and even gave him a simple massage. But his successive failure in his experiments made him feel a bit cranky, so he is in no mood to talk to her.

As a loving wife, she understood his predicament and walked to the table and arranged his belongings.

Who would have known that she would see his documents and experiments and then frown?

Rong Wan slept early that night for he needed to go back to his experiments tomorrow to try and salvage his carrier.

Meanwhile, Rou Chenchen carefully studied the formulas and began making corrections to them.

The next day…

Rong Wan, as usual, followed the documents and did not notice that the formulas were already changed.

Suddenly, because of his slight carelessness, the experiment blew up in his face.

In his anger, he glared at the formula and suddenly noticed the changes. He then realized whose handwriting it was and wanted to go home and scold Rou Chenchen.

As he was about to go, he suddenly took a whiff of the strange aroma in the air.

Besides the burnt smell, he was taken aback by the aroma which made him feel that his body is actually being revitalized by the smell alone.

Then he began to separate the failures inside the pill furnace and found a single pill in perfect form.

Even after his own failure and callousness, he still produced a successful one.

That single pill alone is enough for him to feel a hint of jubilation.

At that time, his superior came by and wanted to tell him the bad news.

However, as soon as his superior saw the pill and smells it, he became dumbstruck.

That was the start of the changes in Rong Wan\'s carrier.

He began to go home early and share with Rou Chenchen his formulas. Sensing that her husband seems to be happy about her help, Rou Chenchen helped him.

The two began to live a life of bliss as she helped him in the background.

Rou Chenchen knew that everything was her idea, but for some unknown reason, she is already happy and content living this kind of life.
