Chapter 921

(Unedited)



Upon coming out of the building, Shin Jiao did not linger and stayed in an inn. Once inside the room, he carefully takes out a small ball of liquid from his dimension and checked it.

"Sinister… truly sinister…" he muttered with a smile.

He is neither agitated nor annoyed but instead intrigued. Though the man laid a trap for him to be infected by the bacteria through the teacup, he did not mind.

This is because Shin Jiao did not consider these people as his opponent. He are just here to pass his time until he would be able to return to the immortal land by finding the exit path. He still has a lot of time before 1 year would pass for the Heaven and Earth Opening, so practicing his craftsmanship, building, and learning is something to make him not get bored.

Plus, he also has something to do in this world, and that is to locate the two bodies of the creators, Agus and Ruel. He has already assumed that either the saint, Gwendolyn, or Isabel is the light god Agus, but the dark god Ruel, he has not detected so far.

As he began to check the bacteria in that floating ball of liquid, Shin Jiao began to do some series of experiments. It was not until dawn has arrived before he finished his experiments with a satisfied smile on his face.

"These bacteria could take the life essence of people and anything it touches, that's why the land looks dead. But… if I do this…" he muttered as he suddenly put some liquid inside the floating ball of water.

The liquid slowly covered the whole liquid and soon it turned green. It did not take long before fungi and moss began to grow from it and everything started to be filled with life.

"Terraforming bacteria…" he muttered with an excited smile.

"I knew it… Hahaha… This is good… This is really good." He said while chuckling to himself.

If he can use this type of bacteria, he can find a suitable planet in the future and try to terraform it to be an inhabitable planet. But of course, that still needs to be experimented on in the future.

But for now, this result is already satisfying and good.

That morning, Shin Jiao walks out of the inn and began to stroll around the city. After more than 2 hours, he suddenly encountered a group of people.

"So you are the one from Fashuan village, eh… I heard the thing called radio station is in that village and that they were able to survive a beast horde attack…" the man in the front of the group said.

"Ah, yes… most nearby villages were able to survive the disease because of the information spread by our village. But I seem to not see any radios in the city, I wonder why is that?" Shin Jiao said with an expression of befuddlement.

When the man heard his words, his expression changed. He looks at the people behind him and signaled.

"Capture him…" he shouted.

Since they wanted to play with him, then he can also do the same to them, right? He is after all in the level of a Grand Magus.

He did not use this psychokinesis but instead, he just uses his physical fighting technique.

This would be a good way to polish his close combat fighting style which he had not used for a while now.

One of the men swung his sword to his neck, but Shin Jiao just tilted his head to the side.

The sword passes through his after image while he locked the elbow of the man. Then with a swift swing of his foot, he knocks the man down to the ground with a loud thud.

The impact was so strong that it made the man lose his consciousness in an instant.

Shin Jiao did not hesitate to quickly roll to the ground and then stood right in front of another man with a sword.

The man quickly stabbed his sword at Shin Jiao, but he just moves his body slightly to the side and when the man misses him, he grabs the man's wrist and twisted them.

The sword fell but before it could touch the ground, Shin Jiao's leg caught it and then kicks it to the person charging towards him.

The sword hit the man's hand which is holding his weapon and tore it into two halves.

He then punches the person he is holding sending him flying to the wall.

Shin Jiao did not stop and beat everyone to the ground until only the haughty man was left standing.

The man is already trembling, but he clenches his fist and began chanting something.

"Oh, a mage…" Shin Jiao said with a wicked smile on his face.

When the man heard him, he almost lost his balance as he felt his knees becoming weak. He did not hesitate and quickly turn around and ran as fast as he could.

Before he left the area, Shin Jiao could already hear a few footsteps coming to this place.

Shin Jiao's figure suddenly vanished from the spot.

He appears in an alley and walks directly to the merchant association.

When he arrives he saw many people could be seen lining up in a corner as they enter a warehouse.

"You there, what are dawdling in this place? Get in line!" a guard shouted at him.

Shin Jiao was a bit taken aback, but he did not resist and just watches the many people lining in the warehouse. He then discovers that these people are also merchants who wanted to sell their wares to the association warehouse.

Most of the things that are being sold are food. He knew that this is a necessity of the city because of the cursed land outside.

But what he could not understand is why are these people doing this in their own land?

So he decided that he still needs to investigate this thing before coming back to the village.

Shin Jiao follows the line and then thought of something. If his conjecture is right, this has something to do with the mages in the city and the people are not aware of it. But who are those that wanted to capture him, and why infect him with the disease? These things are still a great puzzle to him.

As he thinks to this point, he suddenly arrives in front of the person who is accepting the goods.

"What are you selling, sir?" the person asked while looking at Shin Jiao incredulously.

He is thinking that Shin Jiao is not carrying anything so why would he line up as a merchant? But he did not want to discriminate. They have been providing the city with food for years now and he had seen many like the man in front of him.

"Maybe he is a mage?" he thought.

When the man saw the liquid, he suddenly asked.

"What is this? A healing potion?"

"Haha… Well, you can say that… But it is a different kind of healing potion…" Shin Jiao said with a wink.

When the man saw him winking he wanted to ask something, but then he has his doubts. So he called someone from behind him.

"Take him to the guild… Master needs to see this." the man said.

The person behind him nodded his head.

"Please follow me, sir." He said gesturing for Shin Jiao to follow.

When Shin Jiao left, a person among the line watches him carefully and left after Shin Jiao enters the building.

That person suddenly turns to a corner and disappears in the shadow of the alley.

Inside a pudgy middle-aged man is sitting behind his desk while working really hard. On his side, there is a portable radio.

Upon seeing this, Shin Jiao showed a faint smile.

The man is currently listening to the news on the radio while writing something on a piece of paper.

"Sir, this gentleman has something to sell, the warehouse manager asked me to send him to you."

The person said as he closes the door and left.

When Shin Jiao enters, the pudgy middle-aged man lifted his head and looks at Shin Jiao. Suddenly, he grabs his drawer and opens it.

Shin Jiao could see that he is looking at a picture.

"It's you… You are that fellow Shin Jiao, right?" the pudgy middle-aged man said.

"Haha… You don't have to be surprised. We are the merchant association not only in Zepa City; we do not belong to any faction. But we have a lot of branches everywhere, even in the outer world." he said with a smile.
