The Geared Immortal

Chapter 748

(Unedited)

…

A hundred shadow creatures have already surrounded the humans as they struggled to fight against the huge number. Luna Halil has donned in her armor and now she looks like a human figure but covered in a dark gray exoskeleton of a monster.

Everyone who saw her felt a little shocked as they didn't expect that she would use the type of armor that those high elves used in the war to transform into demon-like figures.

With a wave of her hand, she hid the sniper rifle and took out a dark gray sword that is as tall as her.

"You're all going to get it now!" she shouted.

Luna's figure began to dance and weave through the crowd of shadow creatures while waving the big sword in her hand with ease.

She looks like the god of death as she began slicing and smashing her enemies to a pulp.

"Damn that girl is fierce…"

"Look at that ugly armor and weapon she is using…"

"Hey, focus on the battle!"

The people around her commented while seeing her fight. Although the situation is very dire, yet these veteran fighters could casually talk to each other as if everything is normal.

Meanwhile, Lord Ji Ha-jun has already begun creating the barrier array which would be able to protect everyone.

"Haha… Hihihi… This is what I was looking forward to! This is the exhilaration I was waiting for… This is the bliss of fighting and killing these bugs!" Luna shouted while laughing maniacally.

Her wild moves and maniacal moves sent shivers running down the spine of everyone who is seeing and hearing her.

They did not know where Master Ji found this woman, but now they are a bit glad that she came along with the group as it made their job a bit easier.

Luna has been imprisoned inside a dungeon for a long time and this is her first release using her own strength and power. So her emotion and control began to let loose as she rampages through the battleground. One shadow beast after another starts to fall by her sword.

'Warning! A strong source of energy has been detected. The system is advising the user to open the energy shield!'

Suddenly while fighting wildly, the voice inside her helmet warned. Feeling a bit confused, Luna looks everywhere but frowns as she did not detect anything as such in her surroundings.

But before she could do anything, she suddenly saw a flash of light. Then she feels a strong force hitting her chest with a strong force that it felt like a jackhammer has just rammed her.

Luna's figure flew through the air then hit the wall with a loud bang.

'Armor integrity compromised… damage assessing… armor integrity is down to 60%...'

When she saw the words and heard the voice, Luna was a bit perplexed. She knew that what hit her is not only a strong energy force but something else. Luckily she is wearing the suit and it did not damage her fully. She knew that if she was to take that hit with her body, she would immediately die.

"Look out! That's a Lightning pangolin!" someone shouted.

Hearing the warning, the group immediately return to their defensive formation.

Lightning pangolins are the nightmare of fighters and those protected by barriers. This is because; the beast's attacks which use the Dao element of lightning could pass through barriers. And when it hits one target, the lightning will travel to another and to another until it would devastate a group.

This is the reason why the group looks in vigilance when they saw the Lightning pangolin which is as big as a dog.

As it looks around the cave, the pangolin saw the humans and it immediately showed its hostility. But then when it saw the shadow creatures, it showed a more fierce expression on its face to the point of growling. Its body which is full of silver scales began to glow as it suddenly shifted its hatred towards a giant shadow mantis near it.

Then with a flash, it disappears, and then a loud booming sound was heard as the shadow mantis was destroyed in one move.

Ji Koon who was near the Lightning pangolin immediately feels his body shaking. He and another two gold armor level fighters were having a hard time fighting against that giant shadow mantis and it was killed with just one move from the small creature, how could he not fear it?

Meanwhile, Luna who was flung and is still stuck on the wall regained her senses. She could feel that blood has formed down her throat. But she forcefully swallowed it as she gritted her teeth through the pain.

"The nerve of that puny thing! If I were at my full power I could easily crush it like a bug!" she said in anger.

But no one paid attention to what she said as everyone is now wary of the Lightning Pangolin.

Then suddenly the beast once again glowed and began attacking the shadow creatures. With only one move it is able to destroy a shadow creature. The pangolin seems to be on a rampage, and soon only the humans were left.

But at this time, Lord Ji Ha-jun was able to complete the barrier and a green light suddenly protected the group.

When the Lightning Pangolin saw this, it was immediately angered. How could it not be angry? It saw that the human have erected a barrier to block its path and it angered the little thing and take it as an insult to its power.

And so, without any warning, it immediately releases a bolt of lightning which flew towards the group of humans inside the barrier.

But before the lightning bolt could hit anyone a figure suddenly appears and blocks the lightning bolt with its huge sword.

Luna immediately jumps on the path of the lightning bolt and using her sword, she stopped the attack.

'Warning! The energy level is raising to its threshold, system advice the user to expel the extra energy to prevent overloading!'

Luna is aware of this type of function and she banks on this feature in the suit and plans to use the Lightning Pangolin's power against itself.

Without hesitation, when Luna saw that the energy level is about to hit the overload level, she immediately channeled every energy in her body and from the armor and then using her sword as the conductor sent a large energy ball towards the pangolin.

Ka-boom!

The loud explosion shook the whole cavern and everything was immediately covered in dust. Except for those inside the barrier, the whole cave seems to have been engulfed inside a dust cloud.

…

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao who is advancing towards the inner part of the cave felt a strong tremor and shifted his gaze to where he left his group. He suddenly feels a bit worried, but he knew that he has no time to worry about others.

Right now, he could feel the strong killing intent coming from deep within the cave. From that killing intent alone he knew that he would be facing a very strong opponent.

And so he continues to walk deeper.

Soon, he arrives at a large underground hollowed dome. The dome is dimly lit like the cave but the light comes from the ground which seems to be made out of a large luminous stone.

"Human… you have intruded my abode. How dare you enter my home without permission?!" a deep voice echoed in the air.

Shin Jiao looks around but could see no one. When he uses his spiritual sense and absolute sense, he could somewhat sense a presence, but this two sense is the immortal land is not that effective. He could use his domain but he did not want to show all of his cards to his opponent yet.

And so, he just used his psychokinesis to scan the room. With its range, Shin Jiao was able to see even those parts hidden in the dark corners of the cavern.

He saw many skeletons of beasts on the ground. He could deduce that the place is the feeding ground of the demon in this place.

"I never had humans for a long time now. It seems that today would be a nice treat. However, don't mistake me for thinking that you humans are special. For me, you taste like… hmm… rodents. That's right, you humans taste like rodents. The only good thing about you is your soft flesh… Hehe…"

The voice reverberates everywhere making it hard to find the source.

Shin Jiao's vigilance is at all high as he tried to continuously search for his opponent. But it seems that he still could not detect anyone or anything.

Suddenly, Shin Jiao felt something coming from his right side and he immediately dodges.

As he evades, his eyes saw the thing that flew towards him. It is a projectile made of a beast bone.

He followed its tracks but saw no one in that dark area.

Soon another projectile flew and this time, Shin Jiao did not dodge. Instead, he waves his hand and parried the projectile which was sent flying to the wall and was shattered into pieces.

By doing this, Shin Jiao has taken a glimpse of his enemy in the dark.

On one of the dark corners of the dimly lit dome, a black figure is standing. When Shin Jiao saw its figure he could not help but click his tongue.

This is because what he is going to fight is a demon who is an expert in stealth and speed. Plus its lust for blood is making him feel uncomfortable.

"Hmm… You seem to be very powerful for a mere… vampire.." Shin Jiao said with a frown.
