Chapter 629: Tale Of The Traveling Doctor

(Unedited)

…

It has been a month since Shin Jiao has arrived in the border garrison of the Golden Dragon Empire and taught the blacksmiths and the alchemist how to create the first gun in the land. It took them a while before they were able to produce a significantly better revolver.

Since manually creating such a thing would take time, Shin Jiao let the blacksmiths learn little by little. And in the span of a month, they were able to create one at last. And from then on, the standard of the weapon was set and the production has already begun.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao himself crafted some revolvers and gave it to the hunting parties that are assigned to block the beasts. Those soldiers were already trained in these past few weeks on how to use, clean, and do maintenance on a gun.

General Xang immediately takes hold of the production secrets of the guns and keeps everyone who is involved in control.

Shin Jiao did not mind these things as he knew that once the era of the guns began, then humans would just learn things the hard way. There are no short-cut to these things.

Meanwhile, he is currently walking towards the direction of the capital of the Golden Dragon Empire. His first goal is to see the situation in the Valley of the Gods. If it is possible for him to get in that place, he would. But if not, then he would turn around and travel towards the center, the place called the Eye of Death.

Those two places are his destinations. It has been more than two months since he arrives in this place. Though he is worried about Susan Tang's condition, he couldn't do anything about it at this time. All he has to do is now is to do it best to find a way out of these vast lands.

From the rough path, Shin Jiao suddenly found a small village along the horizon. The village is protected by two-meter rocks walls.

As he drew closer, he soon discovers that the walls are stained with dried blood.

Shin Jiao also discovered that the villagers in this place are all battle-hardened people judging from their defensive stance while looking at Shin Jiao from afar.

When he neared the gate Shin Jiao immediately greeted.

"Hello! I'm a traveling doctor… just passing by. Can I ask something?" he shouted outside the wall while looking at the guard who is standing at the top of a lookout post.

"This is Nixiang Village… if you are going to the Lindao Kingdom capital city, then you are out of luck. The capital city was already destroyed a week ago." the person said with a grave tone.

"Oh… Okay, thank you for the information." Shin Jiao said as he turns to the right and decided to just go around the village.

The man at the top had a complicated look on his face. When he heard that the unassuming young man is a traveling doctor, he was a bit skeptical as the young man is not carrying anything. He is just wearing a neat set of a white and gray robe without any bags or pouches on him. So this made him think that the young man is lying.

However, if what he is saying is true then it would be too late for him to regret.

He and his family came from the capital city of Lindao. He and many other soldiers have escaped the capital city when it fell at the jaws of those powerful demonic beasts. What baffled them the most is the reason why the beast are all going westward? They even bypassed the imperial city and just destroy those cities, towns, and villages on their path.

This is also one of the reasons why Nixiang Village was spared. Only a small amount of stray demonic beast came to the village. With a huge amount of effort, the soldiers have helped the villagers drive out and kill those demonic beasts.

Although many of the soldiers have died, at least their families and the villagers inside were saved.

However, in that battle, many of the soldiers have been wounded, and the village doctor is not good enough to treat those patients. Hence the man is currently mulling on what to do about this situation.

He suddenly seems to have decided on something as he clenches his fist and called out.

"Wait!... You said you are a doctor, right?" the man asked.

"Yes… why?"

"Can you help treat the wounds of our soldiers?"

"Umm… Sure… why not. I just want some information." Shin Jiao agreed.

That day, Shin Jiao busied himself treated a lot of wounded soldiers and after getting some information, he left the village.

As he continues traveling at a fast pace, he would always arrive in a village or town and help them. He is doing this because his psychokinesis ability is actually growing little by little as long as he practices it on his patients.

And along with his travel, he also did not stop practicing.

From wide-area control to precise control, Shin Jiao's skill is growing as time went by. Along with his practice, unknown to him, a piece of news has already spread far and wide.

People are talking about a handsome young man wearing simple clothes and traveling to treat patients for a day and leave after. This piece of news travel all over the empire through the use of trained birds.

Soon Shin Jiao began to discover that as he is about to arrive in a town or a village he would be greeted with delight by the people inside. It's like he is being treated as a celebrity. Many knew that the young doctor would just spend a day and then leave.

A lot of women would try to tempt Shin Jiao, and many rich people would offer him some benefits, others would even try to use force to hold him. But those things are to no avail. He would just leave immediately and vanish like a ghost.

After another month of traveling, Shin Jiao has now reached the capital city of the Golden Dragon Empire.

In fact, his speed of travel is really fast. It would usually take around half a year if one would travel from the capital's direction to the northwestern border garrison. Although Shin Jiao could not fly, yet his speed alone is already fast enough for him to traverse such long distances in just a month's time.

Of course, if he could fly, that one month's time could be shortened to three days or a week at most.

As he walked down the path, he could not see many carriages traveling down the brick-laden path towards the huge city. Shin Jiao also noticed a lot of refugees living along the road with their makeshift houses. It's like there are many small villages with make-shift homes around 2 kilometers outside of the wall of the capital city.

Shin Jiao's psychokinesis ability has already reached 100 meters in this month of constant travel practice, and treatment of patients. Along with his ability's improvement are also his senses. Though it is not as good as his absolute or spiritual sense, it is already good enough for him.

As he reached the entrance of the capital city, Shin Jiao fall in line with the rest of the people entering its large gates.

He noticed that the guards are checking the identification plates of the people and their belongings.

Suddenly from the front, he heard two people talking.

"Hey, do you know what's going on?" one of the men asked.

"Well, I heard that the city is currently hiring some alchemist and many blacksmiths."

"For what?"

"It's about a new weapon to be used to fight against the ever-increasing horde of demonic beasts. And I heard that the pay is very lucrative."

"Really? That's a bit tempting. Unluckily, I'm not a blacksmith. Hehe…"

"Yeah, I heard that the imperial court has already dispatched the wing riders to get the blacksmiths and some of the alchemists who knew how to make the weapons."

"Huh… how did you know those things?"

"Hehe… I'm applying as an alchemist of course I've heard about them already."

"Haha… my friend, if you make it big someday, don't forget about me, okay?"

As the two people converse, those who have listened showed curiosity in their eyes. Others did not mind them at all, while some are showing excitement in their faces as they too seem to have heard of this piece of news.

Shin Jiao on the other hand has already heard about those so-called wing riders. He was interested but did not want to associate himself with the empire further. He has his own goal and his own plans.

As he was thinking, Shin Jiao's attention suddenly caught a large shadow covering the sky.

When his sight shifted upwards, he saw a huge eagle-like beast.

"It's a wing rider!" exclaimed many people as they gasped in astonishment at the huge beast.

Suddenly, behind that huge flying figure, a group followed and they all flew in the direction of a large palace that Shin Jiao could see under the huge arc of the gate of the city.

He can clearly see people sitting atop those huge eagles.

"Hmm… I guess those are the people they took from the border garrison…" he thought.

Shin Jiao's purpose in coming to the capital city is nothing significant. He was just curious about how the capital is able to fight against those so-called demonic beasts.

On his way, Shin Jiao actually saw some of those beasts and he was a bit taken aback. This is because those demonic beasts are the so-called demon beast in the outside world. However, their cores are depleted of Qi and mana. But with the depletion of their core, it seems that the beasts have mutated and adapted towards another form of energy and that type of energy is very familiar to Shin Jiao.

That type of energy is the same as the ones coming from the black and white stone.

That's why he is curious about how the soldiers are able to fight against these demonic beasts.
