The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1436

War of the Gods and Demons: Chapter 36

…

Entering the Lostier fortress, Xin Ja looks at the streets and noticed a few changes from the last time he visited this place. It was like going down memory lane back on earth.

He just looks at the surroundings, and soon he noticed the truck topping at a building with the word "Inn" at the top.

"This is your stop… I need to get home now… Hehe…" the old man showed a smile on his wizened face.

Xin Ja nodded and fished out three gold nuggets. He did not know the currency or if there are changes, so giving golden nuggets would be the right choice in his opinion.

When the old man saw this, his eyes suddenly darted back and forth.

He then said in a low voice.

"Young lad… do not show such precious things in public if you want to keep your life…" he said as he wanted to say no.

But Xin Ja just showed a faint smile on his face and then put the three golden nuggets on the seat and then left with a nod.

The old man looks helplessly but quickly grabbed the nuggets just in case someone would see them and thinks of bad things.

He drove the truck while looking a bit grateful in Xin Ja's direction.

Xin Ja arrives in front of the hotel and walks inside. He seemed a bit lost as he could not believe that in just 5 years many things have changed.

This is not normal for a place where power started to grow. With power and a longer lifespan sometimes people's minds would turn sluggish and their focus would divert from technology to another pursuit.

But from the way he looks at it, from the changes happening around him in the fortress, he knew that there are surely huge changes that happened.

As he walks inside, he was greeted by a cute girl with two braided ponytails.

"Welcome to… the Inn… How may I help you?" she asked with a pretty smile.

"I… wanted a room…" Xin Ja said while looking around.

"Umm… And your identification please…" she asked.

Xin Ja looks at the girl blankly and did not say anything. He was able to enter the fortress due to the help of the old man. He did not know that the inn needed identification for him to be able to rent a room.

Seeing the reaction of Xin Ja, the young woman looks to both sides and then winks.

"Alright, sir… I will help you get a room…" she winks again and gestured for him to follow her.

Xin Ja arrive at a counter where he was given a room key and the young woman handed him a receipt.

Seeing the price, he showed a slight smile on his face and did not hesitate to pay five gold ingots.

"I guess that old man knew about this thing…" he thought as he was led by the young woman to the second floor of the inn.

The inn looks like an old cowboy western inn from the movies.

As he walks inside, he soon picks up some noises from the room which made the young woman with the ponytail blush a bit.

Xin Ja could not help but shake his head and followed behind her until they got into the room.

"If there is anything you need just ring the bell, okay?" she then extended her palm.

Xin Ja gave her another gold ingot as payment.

After paying, the young woman, just skipped while walking down the corridor.

Xin Ja enters the room and then closes it.

He then sets up a few formation barriers in front of the room to prevent anyone from spying on him.

"What is this? What is happening here?" he muttered with a slightly confused expression.

After the forest and the demons awakened working together, he actually did not know what is really happening.

"Is this part of the plan of the Shadow Beings?" he thought as he sits calmly on the bed.

He then began to go through his mind on what the plan of those bastards are.

He shakes his head and then decided to turn on the thing that looks like a radio.

"Maybe I can get some information from here…" he muttered as he decided to listen to the stations.

Soon, he heard some news as he began to skim over the stations.

After copying the transmitter style of the radio, he began to turn to create a radio without a frame and just turn them on simultaneously.

From the way he sees it, there are around 10 radio stations in this area. And so, he began listening to them simultaneously.

Suddenly he stopped and then tuned in to a single radio station.

Upon tuning in, his eyes turned into slits and then showed a serious expression on his face.

"… The Y Systems Incorporated is going to now initialize the 3rd test for the portal opening system to the other side of this planet… Hopefully, we can have a long connection to the other side…" the radio announcer said.

Xin Ja knew that if this happens, then the awakened beings on this side of the planet would be greatly affected.

Especially if a large amount of chaotic Ki enters this place. From the things that he learned from that Shen who has opened a portal and tried entering this world, if one enters this from the other side, their Ki would be sucked by the environment.

If someone from this side enters the other side, they would explode due to the uncontrollable absorption of Ki.

Only the Shens would be able to survive such an ordeal.

So opening the portal longer would thicken the Ki in the environment and that would prove fatal to everyone in her.

"Wait a minute… it will prove fatal to everyone except for the demons and Shadow Beings…" he muttered as he showed a worried look.

"This world might not be invaded like what I have been thinking… They are going to do it subtly and under everyone's noses…" he muttered.

He stood up, but then Xin Ja realized that he could not just walk out there without a plan, right?

"I guess, I can only contact that Shen… Maybe we can work together…" he thought of that terrible guy.

With his current strength right now, though he is not a Shen, but only a Ki-Grandmaster, he is confident that he would not be caught by that guy.

After deciding on his next move Xin Ja stood up and hide everything. As he walks out of the room, he suddenly heard some bouts of commotion from downstairs.

"We are looking for someone who has no ID… Please cooperate…" a few armored men enters the inn and presented their IDs.

Under Xin Ja's Absolute Sense, he easily saw the ID and then quickly memorized it.

Without hesitation, he produces an ID for himself copying even the code of the other guy from inside one of the rooms.

The guy he just copied is currently busy while on top of a woman. He seemed to be someone who is a member of a gang.

But from the way he looks at it, this guy is a member of a small gang. The reason Xin Ja arrives at this conclusion is because of the meager amount of money he has and his clothing.

Xin Ja walks down the stairs and saw the enforcers.

As he walks towards the door, an enforcer blocks his path.

He then showed them his ID.

"Jango Far…" the officer muttered with a frown.

He then scanned the ID when it says identified, he then nodded his head.

The young woman on the side, who saw this, has her eyes wide open. How could she not know who Jango Far is? Jango Far is someone who tried to molest her last time and is a small gang member.

But that handsome young man is not him. She felt a bit confused at this time and just looks at Xin Ja's back as he walks out.

Soon, a small commotion was heard inside a room as the officers quickly caught a thin small young man with a rat-like face.

"What are you doing?!" he shouted as he was pinned on the ground while still naked.

The woman has already gathered her things and even took his wallet with her as she runs outside.

Her ID was already scanned and the officers let her out.

"Jango Far? You are Jango Far?" the officer sneered.

"Yes… I am… you can ask everyone in this place!" the rat-faced young man protested.

Someone, who accidentally walked by the door, saw what is happening inside and quickly showed a frowning face while watching.

"What is happening?" he asked one of the officers who is standing by the corridor.

"Someone who faked his ID…"

"Who? That guy?" the man asked.

"Yes, do you know him?" the officer asked.

"He is Jango Far, a local gangster… If he got caught, then good riddance…" the man said with a nod.

"You mean… he is Jango Far?" the officer asked.

Another man on the side nodded his head as he walked by.

The officer frowned and then walked inside.

"Guys… That man is Jango Far…" he said.

"What? Then…" suddenly the officers who are trying to catch Jango Far showed realization in their expressions.

"Damn it… we got tricked…" they said as they quickly run out of the room and outside the inn.
