Chapter 557

(Unedited)

…

A large army of around 1000 plus soldiers began marching towards a recent battleground. Their purpose is to retrieve and bury the bodies of their comrades that died in the battle. As the road, they are traveling to is one of the most important roads in the empire, it is a must for them to clean it up to prevent any infestation.

A tall and burly soldier riding on a large Groog (A hornless bull-like creature) looks at the scene in front of his eyes. This scenery made his heart heavy and depressed.

Many of the empire\'s soldiers suffered in this battle due to the greed of the opposing country. In fact, this war should not have happened if only the other country did not try to invade the empire and assassinate the emperor.

Luckily the emperor did not die and was just wounded. However, the problem is that until now, the wound that the emperor has suffered seems to be getting worse as the days go by.

And this is the reason why the other country is becoming aggressive in their attacks and ambushes.

And now, the battle on the Rocky Ridge has resulted in the death of almost a thousand imperial soldiers while facing against three times their number.

And this is the reason why they have come here. They are tasked to retrieve the bodies of the fallen heroes that thwarted the advances of the enemy.

It is said that due to the sacrifice of these one thousand soldiers, the enemy suffered heavy casualties and lost a lot of their strong warriors.

"Alright, tell them to prepare and retrieve the corpse of our comrades." shouted the tall and burly man.

As the army walked towards the death filled area, many squinted their eyes due to the foul stench. While covering their face, they began to gather the corpses.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has already woken up and has already hidden behind a rock. He is unable to move that much and all he can do is crawl towards that area.

He has now discovered that he could not use any Qi or mana in this place. It\'s like there is a mysterious force that is preventing him from doing so. Even his domain is unable to come out of his body. However, he noticed that only through physical touch can he extend his ability.

"This is a very troublesome place… I hope I will not meet any powerful beings here. If so, then I would be screwed." He thought.

The only consolation he has is that he is able to still use his ring to take out and put in things, but making a living person enter it is now impossible.

As he rested his back on a rock he took out a green transparent pill.

"Please work…" he muttered as he pops the pill in his mouth.

Not long later, Shin Jiao can now feel a strong surge of energy entering his body. But it seems that there is something that is absorbing the energy making the pill\'s effect go down by a lot. So without a choice, he has to ingest three more before he can feel his body recovering by almost 70%.

"Damn this place! What kind of land is this?" Shin Jiao muttered to himself.

He knew that his place is not the planet Earth, nor Gaeus Ro. So he really wanted to walk out of there and ask the soldiers, but he knew that it is dangerous.

As a soldier himself, he knew that if he walks out from his hiding place, these soldiers might even kill him on a whim. From lessons in history, most would rather kill the enemy than take them as a prisoner. Suddenly an idea pops out of his mind as he looks at the uniform and battle armors of the soldiers.

"Record target…" he muttered.

\'Targeting… targeting… target recorded.\'

"Begin camouflage change…"

\'Changing current camouflage setting… warning… there are parts that have been damaged, unable to complete 100% camouflage. Recalculating… 70% camouflage is possible.\'

"Confirm…"

After that command, from Shin Jiao his clothing began to change and a tattered armor with dried blood on it began to appear on him. Though there are parts that are exposed as those parts where the ruined part in his battle against the Shadow Being.

Shin Jiao didn\'t mind as it only looks like a large gaping hole on his armor which exposes a part of his own flesh. He discovers that the formation inside of his suit is still able to function in this place; hence he heaves a sigh of relief.

And with his camouflage complete, Shin Jiao pretended to be lying on the ground and has fainted behind the rock.

Not long later, he suddenly heard some footsteps.

"General! We… we found a survivor! He… he looks pretty badly hurt!" shouted a soldier.

Then Shin Jiao feel his body being checked and was carried towards a shaded area. Then when the people around him wanted to remove the armor on his body, he pretended to be gaining consciousness.

"Ugh… Where… where am… I?" he mutters in a weak voice.

When the people around him saw this, they felt jubilation.

Shin Jiao\'s condition right now after losing consciousness inside the turbulent space looks really bad. Though he has already healed more than half of the wounds in his body there are still visible open wounds on his skin. But of course, for him these are just superficial wounds, the most important thing is his inner organs. If those are damaged then he would have a hard time healing them.

"How are you feeling?"

"What happened in that battle?"

"Where are the enemies?"

"Did we win?"

He was immediately bombarded by tons of questions from the soldiers who assisted him. Then suddenly a burly looking man walked near him and scrutinized at Shin Jiao.

"What is your name soldier?" asked the General.

"I… I… I don\'t know…" he replied while trying to think of his own name.

If he wanted to know more about this place, he needs to feint having his memory lost.

The General then saw the dried blood on Shin Jiao\'s head, which confirms his theory. Then he nodded towards the doctor on the side.

"Wait… what is happening? Where is this place?" Shin Jiao asked in a panic.

"Don\'t worry, we will explain everything after you are treated by the physician." The General said as he walked away.

The rest of the soldiers also followed suit and left Shin Jiao and the doctor. Shin Jiao slowly removes the armor on his body with a bit of difficulty. This is because his wounds are still there. Then the physician applied for some medicine on his wounds.

When Shin Jiao saw what the physician is doing he almost shook his head in resignation. This guy just put some unknown powder on his wound. And when that powder touches his wound, he immediately knew what it was. Though the herb has healing properties on it, it is unable to prevent any infection that would occur hence he just shook his head.

After bandaging his body, the doctor went out and left Shin Jiao alone inside a tent.

He began looking around and discovers that the situation he is in right now is truly in ancient times. However, he suddenly remembers a familiar-looking beast. Then his eyes lit up.

"Groogs and Neighs… those mounts that the soldiers are using are beasts that are native to Gaeus Ro… Does this mean that I am still in Gaeus Ro? But… what kind of place is this then? Where in Gaeus Ro is this place?" he thought.

As he was assessing the situation, a fast rider is currently dashing towards the campsite.

The soldier is pushing his mount to its limit with his facial expression a bit nervous and fearful. Not long later, he arrived in the camp and immediately ran towards the tent of the General.

"General I have a report!" he shouted outside.

"Come in!"

The soldier immediately walked inside and the tall and burly General of the Army sitting behind a table and looking at the map.

"General, I… I have pressing news…"

"Speak…" the General said still concentrating on the map on the table.

"The… the enemy… the enemy are marching towards our location… there are around, four thousand of them."

When the general heard this report, his gaze immediately shifted towards the soldier. This made the soldier suddenly shudder.

"From where are they arriving? And much time do we have?"

"From the northeast of our position, sir… we… we have around two days at most…"

"Hmm… just to retrieve the bodies of their fallen comrades they have to send three thousand soldiers… Haha… they are also thinking what I have been thinking." The general muttered.

"Call the Captains of the army, I want to convey a meeting now…" the General commanded as he stood up.

"Those bastards… we already have an agreement that each camp can only send 1,000 soldiers in this retrieval operation. What are they planning to do? But still, 4,000 soldiers are not enough to overtake our defenses… Hmm… what are your plans?" he muttered as he looks at the map.

Then suddenly his eyes lit up upon seeing a particular location. He immediately stood up and walked out of the tent. He was followed by the soldiers standing outside.

"You come here…" the General said to one of the guards standing behind him.

"Look over there and tell me what do you see?" he asked while pointing at a direction.

"Umn…" The soldier was a bit confused but still followed the direction of where the general is pointing.

"It\'s just a barren cliff… nothing more." The soldier replied in confusion.

When the general heard this he laughed loudly.

"Haha… So that\'s what they are planning… interesting very interesting…" he said in a low voice as he observes the area.

A plan is already brewing inside his mind while looking at the cliff.

"This is going to be an interesting battle… I Jingxi Hu will not let you do as you please…"
