The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1311

…

Awakened Union Branch Aven town

On the 2nd floor of the building there stood two men facing the counter while talking to the beautiful attendant.

One is a scar-faced man while the other is a burly one. These two men are Peirce and Grover.

"It seems that the town is having a problem with giant ogres these days…" Peirce said while looking at the list of missions that they could take.

"Yes… Those giant ogres have caused us huge headaches these days…" the female attendant said while looking at the folder in her hand.

She actually did not want to talk to these boorish guys as they look a bit scary to her.

"Alright, we will take this mission… See you later pretty lady." Peirce said as he walks away.

The young female receptionist did not even lift her head and just wrote down the data.

Although she has faced a lot of awakened ever since working in this place, she really could not take handling those that have boorish attitudes.

Peirce and Grover did not mind the receptionist as they are used to her attitude toward them. In actual fact, they prefer that fat young man before, but it seems that today is his day off.

That pudgy guy would talk to them and even barter with them making their trip to this place a pleasant one. But this young woman is a bit stiff. However, her looks are not pretty bad so they can forgive her for that.

The group of Peirce and Grover are already waiting on the ground floor. There are seven of them, and one of them is a masked man of average height. This young man is Xin Ja. He decided to wear a mask as he knew that it would be dangerous for the group to be caught with him.

Although he decided to hunt with them, he also did not want to reveal himself in public, especially in the Union building.

The group then walked towards the exit of the town and soon reached the cement road. In the past, this cement road has many cars traveling through it. But now, only people would walk on it and there are many marks of battle that could be seen on its surface.

The cement road extended for hundreds of kilometers towards Dee city and beyond.

Soon the group saw some trucks carrying a large group of awakened going back to the town.

As the truck passed by the group, they could smell the stench of death. Blood could even be seen trickling down the back of the truck.

"Gosh, these guys have hunted those large ogres, right?" one of the members of their team muttered.

"Look at the weapons they have… If we have such weapons, we could also hunt ourselves a large amount of those giant ogres…" another one chimed in.

"Hahaha… You two could say it like that, but do you know how dangerous hunting giant ogres are? One should prepare to put his life on the line in that kind of experience…" Peirce warned the group.

Soon after an hour of walking, they reached the periphery of a mountain.

"This is the entrance according to the map. Everyone prepare your equipment…" Grover commanded as the group began to take out their armors and weapons from their bags.

Xin Ja did not move as he just stood to the side and observe the situation.

His eyes squinted as he looks in a certain direction.

Bang!

Ting!

Suddenly, a gunshot echoed in the air and everyone was quickly startled as they all look in the direction of the sound.

They did not have to wear their armors as they just take out their weapons and move as quickly as they could in a defensive formation.

Xin Ja at this time is standing in front of Peirce with a short dark blade in hand.

His eyes are glued to the direction of the gunshot.

Not too far from the group, a large number of people emerges from behind the trees.

"Hahaha… What a lucky bastard you are Peirce! But your luck will end today!" a beautiful voluptuous woman jumps down from the tree while holding a rifle in her hand.

That woman is Merry. She is about 500 meters away from the group but her voice seemed to be echoing in the area.

"Damn it! I think they have rigged shit place…" Grover cursed as he looks at the almost 100 people surrounding them.

"Hey! B*tch! What is wrong with you?! We did not even touch you, and you even tried killing us… And now you are acting out of place! Do you think I, Peirce, am a pushover?!" Peirce shouted in anger.

"Hahaha… You dare humiliate me! Do you know the price for that?!" Merry angrily shouted as she extended his sniper rifle and pointed it at the young man looking straight at her.

Bang!

Skrrriiinnng!

Xin Ja moved and the bullet that was about to hit him was sliced into two by his sharp blade.

"Is this all you've got?" he said in a low voice.

But it seems that the woman could still hear his words as she sneered and shouted.

"There is plenty where that came from my darling… Let me repay your kindness…" she said as she began to take one shot after another.

By this time the rest of her men also came rushing toward the group while trying to dodge the bullet of their boss.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Ting! Ting! Ting!

Each bullet sent to him was deflected by Xin Ja, but this time the direction of the deflected bullet made Merry's scalp ache.

She emptied the 10 shots out of her rifle's magazine and she angrily reloaded another one and continuously shoots.

She did not believe that she could not hit her target no matter what.

But the more she shoots the more she became frustrated.

The reason for this is that she could see that her target is deflecting her bullets in a weird way.

"Damn you… you… you…" she suddenly stopped as she noticed her men not moving forward anymore.

They are all hiding behind some trees.

On the ground, she noticed that a few of her men are lying on the ground and they are already lifeless.

"This… what… what happened?" Merry asked with a dumbfounded expression.

She was too engrossed in her matter that she did not notice that her men have been taken down.

"Boss, that guy is too devious… He deflected your bullets at us…" one of her lackeys replied while cowering behind a tree.

"Damn it! Kill that guy!" This time she shouted as she put the rifle to her side and rush towards Adam with a long dagger in hand.

"Let's attack them!" Peirce shouted as he glared at the incoming people.

He was truly stunned at the capability of the youth in front of him and now truly knew how he has saved his group before.

Fighting beside such a strong person made his blood boil and his desire to fight heightened.

While the large group of people approaches them, Xin Ja now showed an evil smile on his face. Although these people are mostly E-rank, Merry is a D-rank awakened. So this amount of Ki is already enough for him to fill another layer of the boundless ocean in his dantian.

"My turn…" Xin Ja takes out his MCAW.

He would not use the revolver against these people as that is a very powerful weapon and it would look overkill if he casually uses it to eliminate this group.

So using his MCAW is already good enough.

Ptaff! Ptaff! Ptaff!

The rapid firing of the MCAW echoed in the air as one awakened after another fell to the ground. On their heads, one could see the bolt puncturing their skulls.

It did not take long before Xin Ja stop firing as the rest of the awakened had already run away in fear.

He could not help but click his tongue at the number of death around them.

Merry at this time is now frozen in fear as her legs tremble while looking at Xin Ja. She is not that far from him only around 120 meters, so she could clearly see his sharp eyes staring at her.

"P… Please… Please… Don't kill me." she said with a trembling tone.

Xin Ja noticed that her voice is being transmitted by a radio with a speaker.

"Why should I not?" Xin Ja asked with a sneer.

"I… I will tell you who put a bounty on your head!" she quickly replied.

This time, Xin Ja was taken aback and did not expect such a thing happened. He recover from his stupor and glared at her.

"Who?" he said in a low and deep tone.

"It… It was your uncle… Robert… Robert Summers." She said.

"Hmm… Go, I will be killing you today. But if I ever see you again, then don't blame me for being impolite!" Xin Ja threatened.

Merry almost fell to the ground as she stumbled while running. She now noticed that there is a bolt lodge on her left leg.

She did not actually feel it.

…

As she was running away from the area, several eyes in the shadow were actually observing this scene.

"Boss… That guy is far too strong. What should we do?" a lanky fellow asked while hiding in the shadows.

"Hehe… Why do you think, he did not kill her?" the man beside the lanky fellow asked.

The lanky fellow shrugged his shoulder.

"Haha… I have a plan…"
