Chapter 825

(Unedited)



The High Mages who acted like nobles and tried to take Shin Jiao's ship were defeated easily by Nariz Gumal, Im Ao, and Im Jae. With their rapid movement and improved strength which is enhanced by their gears, the three easily take down the warrior guards and High Mages.

When the guards first went down, the High Mages became an easy target. Without the help of the guards, the three easily captured the High Mages and were all kept inside the prison cells of the ship. They joined the group of people who were captured in the forest.

Everything went back to tranquility after that and the people in the ship resumes their duty.

Meanwhile inside the village of Shin Jiao is currently roaming around and buying things and materials that he needed to buy to add to the products that he wanted to sell as a merchant in disguise. Though he did not need to do this, yet it has become a habit for him when going on missions before on earth.

He would always act the part and even convince himself that he is really the character he is portraying. This way he could mingle with the enemy and infiltrate their ranks without them knowing.

And so Shin Jiao was able to purchase a lot of good stuff in the village market and store them all in his dimension. When he was about to return, he turns to an empty corner and suddenly stopped.

"Who are you? And why are you following me?" Shin Jiao said as he slowly turns around.

His eyes are directed towards a certain direction in front of him. When no one answered he frowns in annoyance.

"I don't want to cause some trouble… If you don't reveal yourself, I will take action and maybe even kill you." he threatened as he also exposes his dense killing intent.

The figure seems to have felt the killing intent and a sound of a footstep was heard.

Suddenly, out of the thin air, a shadowy figure slowly materialized and then a hooded female clad in leather armor shows herself.

"Why are you following me?" Shin Jiao repeated while he folded his arms on his chest.

"I was tasked to shadow you. We need to protect this village. You people are new here and we are unsure of your purpose. Separating from your group deemed you suspicious." She said in a low female voice which sounded mysterious.

Shin Jiao knew that this might have happened, but he did not care. He wanted to buy some stuff so he separates from his group. Since he did not want to take any action to disturb the peace of the village he did not want to bother with the woman further.

"Okay, I understand. However, as long as no one provokes us, we would not fight back. But if anyone from this village has ill intent towards us, then don't blame us if we become hostile towards you." Shin Jiao said as he walks back to the street passing the woman.

When he was shoulder to shoulder with the woman, he stopped and then said in a low voice.

"You should not wear such scent when tailing someone… it's… a bit attractive." He said with a smile then resumed walking.

Shin Jiao then went from shop to shop to check for the wares and ask many questions with regards to the trading rules of the kingdom. Since he decided to act as a merchant he needed to learn such things.

And so it was already nighttime when he came back to the building which seems to be the administration building of the village.

He noticed that the deal was over and right now, Hua Xiao and Xiamen Gong along with the two mages are at a dining table having dinner with the village head and some of the officials from the village.

He just gave a faint smile as he knew that the deal was set and that they are successful.

"Well, miss… it seems that we are going to part ways in here… Oh, wait. Before you go, I want you to have this." Shin Jiao takes out a silver bangle with simple decorations out of the thin air.

The woman who is shadowing him is not surprised anymore by what she saw. This is because she has seen the objects that the man she is following just disappears out of thin air. She knew that he might have some kind of ability or know some spell to hide objects. Though a bit curious, she dare not ask.

"This is for you… thank you for your hard work," he said with a smile.

The woman, who has already appeared when Shin Jiao is standing near the village administration building, showed a bit of reluctance in her eyes.

She did not know if she could accept such a beautiful artifact.

But before she could say anything, the bangle floated and suddenly attached itself to her milky white wrist.

She was a bit afraid and was startled, but then before she could react she feels a warm sensation coming from her wrist where the bangle is. Then that warm sensation slowly flowed throughout her body making her fatigue seem to disappear.

"Good right? I enchanted that bangle to relieve fatigue and enhance your mana absorption. It's my gift for escorting me today." Shin Jiao said as he walks inside the building.

The woman just stood there showing a dumbfounded look on her face.

"An… An enchanted object… This… this is…" she muttered with mixed emotion in her face hidden behind her hood.

Yemei Yin is an orphan and was raised by the village. In her younger years, she was attacked by a beast, and half of her face was injured. Without the ability to buy a healing potion, the wound on her face distorted her appearance. But then she was discovered to have a talent of becoming a mage.

She then undergoes training and became an official mage. But due to her grotesque face, she would always wear hoods and masks along with bangs covering half of her face to hide her appearance.

She has reached the 5th level and was trained to be a scout and an assassin. Growing up in Arjing village, she has experienced battles against bandits and monsters. At her young age of 25, she is already a veteran warrior and only knew fighting. She is always quiet and likes to hide. One of the most useful spells that she has mastered is invisibility.

But for her entire life, this is the first time that she has received a gift from someone whom she did not even know. Plus the gift is not that simple, it is actually an enchanted item that is worth so much gold.

In contrary to her surprise and dumbfounded reaction, Shin Jiao did not bother with anything.

He just walks inside the building towards the place where everyone is dining.

He has gained so much this time and has even gotten his hands on some mana stones. He could not wait to research the stones and integrate them with the ship to further enhance its functions.

While he is walking inside the building with a rustic feeling on it, he was suddenly stopped by a guard.

"Who are you? You cannot proceed from this point…" the guard clad in silver armor said with a strict tone.

"I am a part of the merchant group…" Shin Jiao said.

The guard looks at him suspiciously as he eyed Shin Jiao's appearance. Clad in a leather overcoat, Shin Jiao looks like a shady person instead of a merchant. So the guard was not convinced by his words.

Shin Jiao heaves a deep sigh. Since he could not enter, he decided to just turn around and wait for those four to come out.

But before he could walk away, three people could be seen walking inside the building. Their gait and stance could tell those who are looking at them that the three have some status in the military.

Though they are not wearing armor and are donned in noble clothing, one could still tell that they are soldiers from their aura alone.

"You… What is happening here?" the man in the middle of the three people pointed at the guard and asked with a hint of annoyance tone.

When the guard saw who the man was, he immediately showed fear in his eyes. This is because the guard knew who this man is.

In the Main Arjing City and its borders, there is a famous general that leads the knights and the mages in battle. That famous general is known for his cruelty to his enemies and strictness towards his men. He is known as 'Blood General Xentong'.

This moniker was given to him because he would always be covered in blood every time he enters the battlefield. His way of fighting is too cruel and he would always act like a madman in battles.

And because of this, his enemies and his men are afraid of him.

So when the guard recognizes the man, he immediately bowed his head.

Meanwhile, the general suddenly noticed Shin Jiao's figure standing on the side and showed a hint of suspicion on his face. One of his men noticed this and immediately walks towards Shin Jiao.

"Who are you…" the man asked in a cold tone.
