The Necromancer: Chapter 5

/*unedited*/

The next day…

The mayor and the elders of the town began to inspect the names of the cultivators using the marks which were put on them when entering the town. They began to choose those with a higher level of cultivation especially those who are already in the gold core realm.

And on that name list is the name of Jin Fu and Ling Ya. Then the town sent those people a summons and was given a quest. The quest actually came from the king of the Wu. Along with the 5 experts sent by the king, they are to hunt down the necromancer which is terrorizing the town of Snowpeach and has almost destroyed all the villages surrounding the town.

In Shin Jiao's house…

Knock! Knock!

The wooden door slowly opens as a beautiful woman in her 30's greeted the people outside with a smile.

"Master Jin and mistress Ling, welcome! We're glad that you have visited us this time!" Jie Ye greeted as soon as she opens the door.

From inside, she already knows who the people outside with the use of the camera that Shin Jiao installed on the door. When she saw the three, she could almost tell their purpose was to find her master, Shin Jiao. So she welcomed them inside the house and gestured for them to take a seat. Then she immediately walks up the stairs to call Shin Jiao from his room.

"Master, the Jins are here. They seem to have a business with you." Jie Ye said in a polite voice.

When Shin Jiao heard this he showed a confused expression, luckily he was able to finish a new gear he wanted to test tonight.

On the table lay a machine which looks like a small bird. In one look no one would suspect this tiny bird to be made of metal and crystal parts.

"That's done… the skin and the feathers would be the last touch… Well, let's go and see what brother Jin needs." Shin Jiao muttered as he stood up and went down the stairs.

Upon seeing the three, Shin Jiao suddenly had a bad feeling. But he didn't show it on his expression as he walks calmly towards them and sat on the opposite seat.

"Big brother Shin! I'll be staying here for today. That would be okay right?" Little Hao'er suddenly said beaming with a smile.

This made Jin Fu and Ling Ya stunned and didn't know what to do next. They never would have expected that their son would announce their purpose as soon as he sees Shin Jiao.

"Umm… Sure why not. You're always welcome in my house Little Hao." Shin Jiao said with a smile.

"Go with Aunt Jie, I and your parents are going to talk about something." Shin Jiao said as he turns his gaze towards Jie Ye who is currently preparing some tea.

With a nod, she walks near Hao'er and leads him towards her room where the two children are currently playing. When he enters the room, two happy childish shouts coming from the inside greeted him. Immediately Hao'er showed a happy expression and giggled as he ran towards them.


When they saw their child happy, both Jin Fu and Ling Ya felt assured and relaxed. Then they showed a grateful smile at Shin Jiao and Jie Ye.

"Come! Let's go upstairs." Shin Jiao gestured as both the couple walked with him.

When they entered the room, the two were surprised at the scene. It was like daylight inside the room where the windows are all blocked. And the temperature inside the room is cool which is like autumn in summer. The comfortable feeling they feel made them showed an astonished face.

"Sit, please… So what seems to be the problem?" Shin Jiao asked as he gestured for them to take a seat.

"Young Shin… I think the mayor is planning to rescue his son. There are also people from Wu city and I heard they are all experts." Jin Fu said with a knotted brow as he seems to be thinking of something.

"Young Shin, I know that this mission is dangerous so we want you to protect Hao'er no matter what happens." Ling Ya said although she is trying to show a calm expression, however, Shin Jiao can see uneasiness in her eyes.

"Hey, don't say that. Hao'er is my friend and he would be sad if he lost the both of you. I… I may have a way to help you both in preserving your lives." Shin Jiao said.

Then he walks towards a table in one corner of the room and lifted the white cloth covering it. Then from the table, the two saw some weird looking armor, weapons, and other stuff.

"This is the A2 personal safety armor or what I like to call A2 PSA. It is capable of boosting your speed twice and protecting your vital parts. Plus, it has automatic first aid treatment for serious injuries, though it would not protect you from losing your limbs, it would protect you from losing your head." Shin Jiao introduced as he held a breast plate-like item in front of the two.

When the two saw the armor, they felt amazed that such a small and simple thing can help them as such. What they could not understand is that the thing seems to have been made by Shin Jiao. If so, then Shin Jiao can actually make artifacts?

This revelation is a little hard for the couple to believe. How old is Shin Jiao? He is only in his twenties. They know that most artifact makers are middle-aged men. It has taken them many years to perfect their craft and become able to make artifacts. From the look of the armor in Shin Jiao's hands, the artifacts seem to be Soul level mid-grade armor. If the sects would know that an artifact like this has been crafted by a young man, they would go all out just to get Shin Jiao.

"And now this, it for the two of you. I know that you both have your own weapons. But these of swords of mine are different; its toughness is unrivaled as only if you face a nascent realm cultivator would this thing break." Shin Jiao introduced them as he showed them two silver swords.

Shin Jiao immediately gave each of them the gears that he made. When they held the things on their hands, they were shocked at the weight of the items. The sword, when held by their hands, seems like an extension of their limbs. As experts, they already know that what they are holding is a treasure.

"Guys, as my friends I don't want anything to happen to the both of you. I don't want Little Hao'er to feel sad. So use these things and come back. Okay?" Shin Jiao said.

The two felt humbled and happy at the same time.

After leaving Shin Jiao's house, Jin Fu and Ling Ya immediately walk to the gathering place of those who are to participate in the quest to end the terror of the necromancer. This mission also includes if possible saving the son of the mayor from the grasp of the necromancer. If they can bring him back they would receive a huge reward from the mayor.

So most of the people are here for the money, they careless of the necromancer or whatnot. As long as they can get the rewards set by the mayor, they are already satisfied. Right now no soldiers have been chosen for the mission, most of the cultivators in the area are those who came to Snowpeach town just recently. This includes Shin Jiao's companions while traveling to this place.

When the nine people saw each other once again in the crowd they just gave a polite nod to everyone. Not long later a middle-aged man wearing a white inlaid with golden stripe cultivator's robe walks towards the front of the gathered people.

"Fellow cultivators, I wanted to express my gratitude to all of you on responding to our summoning. We have found a clue on where the necromancer is and now we are going to end this farce once and for all. You and a group of experts and an army from the great city of Wu are going to siege that place and destroy this evil." Lubo Xilong shouted.

"This is for Snowpeach town's prosperity and peace! And one more thing, if you ever encounter my son and rescue him. I will reward you with this ten-thousand-year-old jadeite, and a thousand spirit stones. This is a promise." He added.

After his words are finished, the eyes of the cultivators in the area are glowing with greed. They could not believe the handsome reward; each of them now has machinations and plans on how to rescue the mayor's son. Instead of destroying the necromancer, their focus is now on finding the son of the mayor.

With this in mind, a number of almost a thousand of cultivators began marching towards a certain location where the battle against the necromancer is about to commence.
