Chapter 916

(Unedited)



Meanwhile, in Zepa City…

Inside the dungeon of a large castle, a blob-like creature is being kept. Around the creature are mages that are constantly checking its status.

"What is the situation right now?" a tall mage wearing a pure white robe stood in the middle while looking at the blob.

"Duke Guard, it… it seems that something had happened to one of our specimens. It… it suddenly vanished." A mage said with a slightly trembling tone.

"Vanished? That is impossible. That is a part of our congregated spell of light. How could it vanished?" the tall mage asked with a frown.

"Sir, I… I think it's because someone discovered it…" a female mage said.

"Show me…"

At the top of the blob, a mist suddenly appears, and then millions and billions of bacteria slowly floated. It was like it is being controlled by the blob.

Then it shows what happened. But since it is like a 3D representation without color but only depth, it could only show Shin Jiao's features and figure but not everything.

"Go to Haiba village and get me this evil creature!" Duke Guard shouted while pointing at the image of Shin Jiao.

Two of the white-robed mages suddenly run out of the dungeon.

"You dare interfere… I will turn you into one of my experiments… Hehe…" Duke Guard muttered with a sly tone.

Suddenly his vision turned dark and his eyes became pure black.

He dare not turn around so that the mages behind him would not notice what is happening.

'What is happening, Malin Guard?' a deep voice that seems to be coming from the abyss echoed in his mind.

"Master… We… We lost one of my life spells. But I assure you that we can harvest more bacteria and rot after we spread this to the other villages…" Duke Malin Guard explained.

'Are optimistic about this?… Are there other black mages in the other villages?' ask the voice.

"Yes, master… It won't be long before you can form your body again."

'Good, after I return, we will drive the kingdom to its knees and you… my student will rule supreme.'

"Haha… Thank you, my master…"

After conversing the Duke's eyes returns to normal and he turns around and left the castle's dungeon.



Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has been flying for a while now and soon saw a large lake where the river ended up flowing.

The large lake is already showing rotting and signs of bacterial spread.

"This place might not have the life spell, but it seems that this is where the infestation has ended up spreading more." He muttered.

From this height, he could already see a village near the lake. But that village seems to have not suffered too much.

Shin Jiao flew towards the village and carefully walks towards its gate.

"Halt! Who goes there?!" shouted a man wearing thick leather armor and a spear.

"I am just here to visit… I see that the infection did not spread in this place even though you are near the lake." Shin Jiao said.

"Yeah, because we have a mage that is good in healing. If you want to be healed get in line!" shouted the man while pointing to the north side of the village.

From where Shin Jiao stood, he could see a long line of sick people.

"It seems that you are doing something good…" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

"Yeah, the flow of the money is good too… Hahaha…" the man said with a chuckle.

Shin Jiao was a bit taken aback. He knew that it was not that simple, so he did not say anything.

As he walks in line he continuously scans his surroundings and inside the village just behind the wall in a large building with a large hall, a mage clothed in black is sitting in front of a circle. When Shin Jiao noticed the array circle on the ground and examine it using his spiritual sense, he was a little amazed.

"Death circle… that is a good idea but very dangerous." He thought.

"Death circle can kill the bacteria but it could also kill many of the healthy cells in a person's body." he thought.

As he observes, he noticed that the mage could actually control the array and because of this control it lessens the destruction of the healthy cells in a person's body.

The pay is also a bit steep. They ask for 2 mana stones per person, that is 200 gold coins. How could these villagers afford such treatment?

He then noticed that many of those sick who are nobles are the priority and have a 'VIP' waiting line.

Upon seeing this, he could only shake his head in dismay. He had already seen what he wanted and he needed to return to Haiba village.

But as he turns around he was spotted by some of the village guards standing just outside of the wall. So they deem him suspicious.

"You there! Stop!" shouted a guard.

Shin Jiao did not want to cause any trouble so he decided to just leave. And like a ghost, his figure suddenly disappeared.

The village guard was suddenly taken aback and he immediately ran towards the inner hall. After a while, he soon reached a hall where many people are discussing something inside.

"Village elders… I have something to report." The man said as he lowered himself.

"What is it?" an annoyed old man said.

"I saw someone outside the wall. He is standing in that place without doing anything… When I called after him, he suddenly disappeared like a ghost."

Upon hearing the guard's report, the expression of the people inside the hall turned serious.

"Village head…" a middle-aged man wanted to say something but the old man in the head position gestured for him to stop.

"This is a very crucial time. The nobles of the kingdom are oppressing us. But we have now our leverage against them. We should stay vigilance against the light mages. But since that man did not do anything, we could be rest assured that he is not one of them. However, we should be ready. Just in case anything would happen, warn the dark mages…"

With the command from the village head, everyone nodded their heads.



Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has already returned to the lake and takes out a few bottles. He dare not use this type of medicine as he did not know what the result would be. But since he is dealing with some sort of bacteria, he could only try his luck in this.

When he floated in the center of the lake, he suddenly found the water surface bubbling. He scanned the lake and from where he is floating, he saw a horrifying monster under the water surface. It seems to be looking at him.

"This beast did not die, but instead merge with the bacteria strain." Shin Jiao muttered.

He lifted his hand and a few formation flags appear in his hand. Then with a wave, the flags flew to the side and began to form an array as it surrounds the large lake. The array began to suck up the mana energy in the surrounding.

The river was not blocked but one could see mist forming as it hits the array formation. Some fizzling sounds are also produced as the river water seems to be hitting something hot.

Then the surface of the lake began to show mist slowly rising in the air.

As it felt the threat to its life, it suddenly jumped out of the lake surface, and with its huge maw open it wanted to chump the human floating above the lake.

But before it could reach Shin Jiao's position in the air, it hit the barrier surrounding the lake.

Tong!

A muffled gong-like sound echoed as the lake creature fell to the lake surface. The creature looks like a giant crocodile, but its body has turned into that of a human with crocodile scales and rough skin. Sharp claws could be seen on its fingertips and toes while a long crocodile's tail could be seen behind it.

The crocodile has a green-colored body covered with a moss-like substance which Shin Jiao knew is the mutation of the bacteria after it came in contact with the lake and its inhabitants.

He knew that everything in the lake is either dead or have been mutated by the bacteria, so he decided to purify the lake and everything inside of it. This way, it would not pose any threat to its surroundings.

As he watches the water surface began to boil he could see the giant crocodile began to go wild and hit the barrier. But no matter what it did it was futile.

This barrier is like a microwave that would boil everything inside of it and turn the whole lake and its inhabitants into mist turning the harmful bacteria-filled lake into a pure one.
