Chapter 730: Timely Aid

(Unedited)

…

A bloody battle is happening as a group of high elves in demon suits assaulted the three remaining lords from the human race. The others were already captured and the remaining three lords were left to fend for themselves.

Right now, the three are already filled with wounds all over their bodies and one of them even looks weak. Though the array master is a lord level combatant, he is not as strong as the other two lords. And for this, he is the one dragging the two making the fight a bit trickier and hard.

As the battle continues, somewhere deep within the shadows of the forest, a long black muzzle of a rifle carefully peeks out of the bushes.

Shin Jiao slowly calmed himself down and tried to erase the killing intent in his consciousness.

As he carefully blends his presence with his surroundings, he became like the tree where he is standing on. He then carefully marked three enemies in his sight and as soon as he is able to mark the last, he did not hesitate and quickly pressed the trigger.

A channel of strong energy suddenly came out from his body and then is flowed towards the rifle. Then from the rifle, something was triggered and another strong energy flowed from its butt and its bullet cartridge.

The energy is 5 times stronger than what Shin Jiao has produced.

If someone could see this strong fluctuation of energy, they would be shocked because this power is equivalent to a middle stage lord's power level.

Bang! Ping!

A loud noise was produced as the bullet passes through the barrel of the rifle breaking the sound waves. And the powerful energy flew out like a laser beam and in the middle of its flight; it suddenly divided into three separate energy bullets.

The thumb-size bullet was reduced to three parts and flew to their respective target.

Suddenly three high elves in demon suits fell to the ground with bloody holes on their heads. Due to the strength of the suits, the bullets only cause a hole to appear from the suits. However, the main body inside already have their heads blasted like a smashed pumpkin.

Seeing that his sneak attack was successful, Shin Jiao immediately changes his location in an instant and quickly takes another position and marked three more targets. Then without hesitation, he quickly pulls the trigger and another three enemies went down.

This time, the woman leading the group of high elves in demon suits, has noticed the strange occurrence. The death of six of her men has caught her attention and she was immediately alarmed.

"We got another enemy! Everyone, form a defensive formation!" she shouted as she suddenly jumps to the back of the group.

The three human lords heave a sigh of relief upon noticing the demons retreating and creating a defensive formation.

They were pressured to the extent that they did not even try to retaliate and just end up defending themselves.

But now, they suddenly had a glimmer of hope in their eyes.

"Master Guan, you should escape first… we will try to stop them…" one of the lords said as he tried to gather energy in his hands.

"What?! No… I… I can't abandon the mission… I could still…"

"No you must go, Master Guan… this group of demons are after you…"

Although a bit hesitant, Guan Santos knew that he is the target. The demons have already taken the two other formation experts and could not resist because their levels are very low. However, as one of the lords, he was able to at least defend himself though he lacks the ability to fight effectively.

Right now, he has no other choice but to retreat and report the failure of their mission. He gritted his teeth and with a clenched fist he suddenly pulls out an array formation disk.

"This is a defensive array that would be able to protect you for a day… if no high lord attacks you, then you can be safe. But after a day, this disk would self-destruct... Good luck!" he said as he suddenly zoomed out of the area.

As soon as he left, two demons suddenly came chasing after him.

Very soon as the two demons left, a silver flash and a faint sound broke the silence. The high elves in demon suits are prepared; however, they did not expect that a sneak attack would target their leader.

Before everyone knew it, a large hole suddenly appears on the forehead of the woman hiding behind the group. Unknown to them Shin Jiao has already positioned himself on the side and is waiting for them to notice the commotion he has caused.

When the woman began issuing the command, he saw it and immediately knew that she was the leader. Without hesitation, he targeted the female elf in a demon suit and shots her.

He did not bother to see if the woman really died, but instead, he quickly chases after the fleeing figure of the array master.

With his flying blade, Shin Jiao was able to chase after the three figures ahead. Then without any warning, he takes his shot and killed the two demons.

After taking care of that, he quickly went back to the place they are going to create the hole in the barrier. However, Shin Jiao did not choose the same location but instead choose a denser part of the forest where the barrier hits the trees.

He did not mind what would happen next to those lords and the rest of the army. His goal is to comply with the request of Ryujin Osmond as he was paid to do so under a contract.

As he reached the spot, he began analyzing the barrier and after 30 minutes he frowned.

"This is going to be difficult… this barrier uses a large amount of energy. With my meager strength, I can't possibly do this in a single setting…" Shin Jiao muttered.

Then after a while, he decided to start creating a hole in the barrier.

"High Lord Ryujin… this is Shin Jiao. My lord, the barrier is a bit tricky. It would take me around 3 to four days before I could fully create a breach in the entrapment barrier." Shin Jiao reported.

'Hmm… Can't you make it quicker?'

"I can't… the other array masters were caught and the lord array master escapes back. I am alone in creating this breach…"

'Hmmm… Alright, we will try to hold on and stop the entrapment array from finishing.'

"Wait… If I may suggest, my lord… Do not try to resist the barrier from finishing anymore, because the conflicting energy would make it harder for me to finish the breach. Instead, try to reinforce the town's protection barrier and hold on for 4 days. When I am done, the enemy barrier would immediately weaken and a hole above will appear. This would stop them from fully utilizing the entrapment array. Then we could proceed with your plans from there."

After hearing Shin Jiao's words, the other line was quiet. After a few minutes, Ryujin Osmond decided to follow with Shin Jiao's plans. Though he knew that it would be dangerous and difficult, they did not have any other choices.

Shin Jiao did not think twice as he created a 50 meters array and created a camouflage. Then he began working on breaching the array in front of him.

…

While this is happening, the leaders of Gipard town are called in a meeting. Everyone gathered in a large hall and began discussing the next step of the plan.

They all showed a gloomy expression after hearing the failure of their plan. But what high lord Ryujin Osmond said made everyone feel complicated. Instead of fighting back, they would end up defending like a turtle inside their shell.

Everyone was dejected and feel down.

High Lord Ryujin Osmond did not tell them Shin Jiao's activity in creating the breach. Ever since he discovers Geland Mills's treachery, he did not trust anyone inside the room anymore. He just told them to bid their time for a reinforcement to arrive.

Then he also discloses to them the treachery of Geland Mills which made the Mills family became nervous. This is true, especially to Joann Vine. She was sent here to assist the Mills family, but who would have thought that one of them would suddenly turn out to be a traitor of humanity.

A traitor to humanity, what did that implies? It means that person has betrayed his own race. Even if he would try to seek asylum in other lands or races, he would always bear the shame of what he did.

If the actions of Geland Mills were not known and all of the fighters in the place where the ambush occurred were caught, then he would not be branded as such. However, someone has already recorded his deeds and there are people who discovered it and lived to tell the tale, so how could he escape this punishment.

As for his family, they would be under investigation and would also suffer the same fate as him if found guilty.

The mission was a failure to the traitor. And now the whole town has a gloomy feeling in it as people did not dare go out of their homes.

Everyone has thought that they have failed and now they would be subjected to the combined forces of the High Elves and the Zith'ra races.

It was really a gloomy day as many just prepare themselves to fight to their very last breath before they would become a slave after resurrecting.

This hopelessness could be felt in the air.

Meanwhile, the blacksmith workshop of the Jungs has once again closed their door and it seems that they suddenly disappear and no one could find them.

In a tall tower in the middle of the town, Ryujin Osmond looks at the town below and heaves a heavy sigh.

"I hope your plans would work out well, young Si Ji. The fate of this town is now in your hands…"
