The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1392

Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 142

…

The snow troll became truly enraged because of the bolts sticking out of its body. However, the bolts did not do any damage because of their thick fur and strong skin. It is just annoyed as it felt like there are needles piercing its body.

By this time, Xin Ja knew that no matter what he does, he would not be able to defeat the snow troll as long as he did not fight him head-on.

But if he let the snow troll within this area, he knew that it would discover them any time soon.

So it would be better for him to fight it early than later, as the same thing is going to happen anyway.

Xin Ja kept his MCAW in his ring and quickly walked out of the cave. The others wanted to stop him but he has already walked out of the cave.

As the cold wind hit his skin, he could not help but frown.

This is because the wind is truly terrifyingly cold and as it hits his skin, he could feel a strange power trying to freeze his whole body.

But with the use of his Ki, he is able to resist the freezing effect of his body and stay warm. However, if he truly wanted to fight, then he could not use his Ki this way.

He did not hesitate to press his belt and then metal parts suddenly came out from his back.

The metal parts quickly formed armor on his body making him now look like a heavily armored knight.

He walked in the direction of the snow troll which has also noticed him.

It then growled in anger as it glared at the figure of Xin Ja. But it also showed hesitation and wariness in its eyes because of the strange armor on his body.

Roar!!!

The loud roar was combined with the powerful gale everywhere making it echoes in the area more loudly.

Suddenly, the snow troll came rushing at Xin Ja while brandishing its huge fists.

Bam! Bam!

The loud eruption of the ground created tremor in the area which alerted many of the denizens within this part of the forest.

As Xin Ja dodges to the left and right, he would also punch his opponent every now and then.

But no matter how he tries to punch the snow troll, he could not even make it stagger. It was as if he is punching a rock with bare and normal fists.

But this has once again added to the fury of the snow troll.

Without warning the snow troll suddenly began to emit powerful resonance in its body which made Xin Ja stagger a bit as he watches.

Seeing that his enemy is getting serious he also decided to be serious in this battle as he takes out a short sword and a dagger.

He then takes a fighting stance while looking at the snow troll.

Two figures face each other, one is a giant white furry creature and the other one is a metal man.

As if there is a bell in their ears, the two suddenly pounce on each other.

Slash!

Bam!

Xin Ja would dodge and at the same time counterattack his enemy which made the snow troll really enraged right now that its eyes suddenly turned red.

"Berserk…" Xin Ja muttered as he quickly take a low stance.

The two once again clash and exchange blows. Although most of the blows that the creature gives him did not affect him that much, Xin Ja could still feel the pain within his armor.

This is because he is still fighting against a powerful C-Rank demon.

Peng!!!

Suddenly, Xin Ja was caught off guard and was sent flying in the air by a powerful punch. Though he was not hit directly, just the force of the blast alone has already made this battle hard for him.

But before he could hit the side of the mountain, his armor suddenly emits a light that protected him and stop his plight.

But the snow troll is already in a rage and in a berserk mode, so it suddenly appears in front of him and sent him flying with a slap.

This time, he was not able to dodge its large hand and was sent flying in the air which made his figure fly everywhere as he was carried by powerful gales.

'Armor integrity: at 90%...' a display showed him his current predicament.

When he was facing those demons on the other side, he has not suffered such a defeat from those demons, but here, his second battle is a bit disadvantageous for him.

He knew that something is messing with his concentration and the mechanical of the suit. But he still has to fight that thing, so he picks himself up and looks around the area he was in.

Right now, he landed in an unknown location and all he could see are large trees.

He could not rely on the suit's ability to record and create a digital map… this is because he knew that something weird is going on in this part of the forest.

But then before he was able to find the others hidden inside a cave, he has already seen the snow troll suddenly turning around and leaving the battlefield.

"What is happening?" Xin Ja asked while looking at his monitor.

'Detected low-level sound wave energy…' a text displayed on the screen in front of him making Xin Ja feel curious about what kind of sound wave was that.

He returns to the cave while hiding his armor and everyone was baffled to see him unscathed in the battle against the snow troll.

Because of the strong wind and the chaotic situation outside, they were not even able to see the silhouette of the battle.

"Did you find the snow troll?" asked one of the men.

Xin Ja nodded his head but did not say anything. Though he looks fine his body has already suffered a lot of beating and he needed to take some pills and heal himself.

He did not bother with the rest and quickly sits on the ground in the inner part of the cave. As he quickly heals his wound, the rest of the people just look at him with a confused expression.

They truly wanted to know what is really happening.

"Did the snow troll escape?" suddenly a beautiful and soft voice entered Xin Ja's ears which made him slowly open his eyes.

"Yes… But I think it would be returning after the snow storm is over…" he replied while closing his eyes back again.

When Samantha Walters heard his words, she showed a complicated emotion in her eyes and looks at the people following behind her.

She walks towards them and they began to convey in a meeting.

The group is now discussing whether they would leave the mountain now and weather the snow storm or wait for their impending doom.

They knew that the snow troll would be coming back with many of its companions after the storm stops. Their only way is to escape now.

After the discussion, the group began to put on their gears as they decided to go through the snowstorm.

Before they left, the young woman walked toward Xin Ja and then said.

"Thank you for taking care of us… If ever you could come to the village of Adema, look for me, okay…" she said with a smile.

But before she could turn around and leave, Xin Ja opened his eyes.

"Before you leave… Take this first…" he said as he handed her a bracer.

"This will point you in the proper direction of this place," he said.

She takes the bracelet and nodded her head.

She then explained to the leader what Xin Ja said which made the leader frown. But then he was still able to figure out how the bracer works.

"I think you should wear it…" she said while handing the bracer to the leader.

But the man shook his head.

"You carry it, mistress… just tell me the direction as we go and I can guide us all to the village." the leader confidently said.

Soon, the group left and only Xin Ja was left inside the cave.

By this time, he opened his eyes and then began taking out one ore and crystal after another. He decided to craft something to battle against those snow trolls.

He could feel that with the strength of the snow troll, he could finally reach the Ki-Champion realm. But of course, this is provided that he would be able to hunt them down easily.

But with a plan in his mind, Xin Ja quickly crafted an auxiliary gear to help him defeat the Ki-Champion level demon.

…

Meanwhile, the snow troll has reached a location within the snowy forest that looks like there are many holes at the side of the mountain.

In those holes are the snow trolls working the asses of their prisoners off in building more caves for the snow trolls.

The weak-looking and poorly clothed people laboring under the glare of the snow troll look weak and flimsy.

But they are still pushed to the brink of starvation just to work hard in creating caves for the demons.

As the snow troll enters one of the caves it suddenly bowed down towards a seat that looks like a throne.
