The Geared Immortal

Chapter 359 - Merging Of Worlds 24

Hotel Night Raid Part 2

/*unedited*/

Russia, 8 years ago…

In a secret base near a snowy mountain, an underground tunnel with a huge entrance that looks like a cave is guarded by many soldiers wearing white thick coats.

From the horizon, an armored ten wheelers truck suddenly entered the view of the soldiers making then feel unease as they readied their AK47 rifles. Many have already prepared for a fight as the area they are guarding is a restricted zone of the country and contains many secrets.

As the vehicle approached they discovered that is was escorted by five more SUVs.

Upon approaching the border gate, the SUV in the front most row of the convoy opens its window and a military officer presented his ID.

"We are from the Eastern Military District…" the officer said in his deep Russian voice as the guard checks his ID and face.

"You're allowed to pass…" the guard said after the computer checks out fine, and then he waves his hand in the air.

The convoy continues traveling inside the huge tunnel until they have reached the end.

"Alright, take the subjects inside carefully and with caution." shouted the army officer.

The large armored truck carries more than 30 people of different ages. Some are still children, some are youths, and others are adults.

"Where… Where are you taking us?" asked a middle-aged man in a fearful tone.

"I want my mommy!" cried a 5-years-old little girl.

He guards had a stern look on their faces and with an uncaring tone, they push the people inside the elevator shaft.

The elevator is wide enough to fit more than 50 people. Hence it is easy for it to carry all the so-called test subjects towards the underground research facility.

It didn't take long for the elevator to arrive in the facility and the group was led towards a place where there are several individual prison cells waiting for them.

"What are you planning to do? Please! Please let us go!" shouted a young woman in her teens.

But the guards didn't reply and they acted like robots as the people are led to their own cells.

After everyone was able to enter the cells a young boy of 15 to 16 years old entered the block. Everyone inside the cell watches the young boy with fear in their eyes.

The boy wore a simple Russian lightweight snow camo and red-tinted glasses. His gait was firm and his expression and appearance handsome.

"Welcome! Each and every one of you is chosen to serve the great motherland. With the power you wield, we will make our country strong and powerful once again. Let me introduce myself to you all, my name is Blast and I will be your captain." The young boy said with a smile.

When the people heard this, a large man suddenly steps towards his cell and with a slam of his body broke the cell door.

Everyone was scared stiff at the large man, the soldiers in the area immediately pointed their rifles towards the man.

"Stand down!" shouted Blast while looking at the burly man.

"You are very strong…" he said with a grin.

The man also looks at the young Blast as had a smirk on his face.

"I am called Broody. I challenge you in this captain position brat." said the man.

"Haha, a young brat calling me a brat is really funny." Blast said while looking at the man called Broody.

Broody may look like a man in his 30's but in truth, he is only the same age as Blast. So the two looks at each other with interest and their hot bloodedness immediately showed.

Broody suddenly dashes towards Blast with all his might. However, before he knew it, a sudden explosion sent him flying towards another cell to the side.

He shook his head and growled like an angry wild beast.

"All brawns and no brain… Haha…" Blast chuckled.

Broody tried and tried to attack but was sent flying by an explosion until his body is not riddled with wounds. From then on, nobody dared challenge Blast as the leader.

The group began to undergo experimentations to develop further their mutant powers and become useful for the country. And that is the start of the mutant program of the Russian country they called, the Variant Squad.

In the present time…

Blast is now facing a mission that the country has prepared for his team to face. In the Variant Squad, there are 5 teams and they belong to the Alpha team, the strongest team. Their team was assigned to infiltrate China and retrieves the inventor of the virtual world. If not, then they can either get the CEO and those around her.

However, they didn't expect to face someone with power just like them. And from what it looks like, the person has super speed and super strength which would be a hard opponent. But lucky for his team, they have the three witches. Medusa has the power to petrify her opponent for a period of time depending on the opponent's strength, while Tinker can create temporary objects out of nothing. With the four of them working together he is confident that they can stop the so-called superhero.

Blast immediately made his move as he threw explosive mana balls towards Shin Jiao's feet.

These mana balls are invisible to everyone's eyes, but Blast can clearly see them. Unknown to him, Shin Jiao can also see the black globs of mana flying towards his feet.

Boom!!!

A loud explosion rocks the area as many cement debris scattered all over the place.

However, Shin Jiao's figure could not be found anywhere else.

Upon noticing this, everyone was in a panic and began scanning the area. However, they could not find anyone.

Suddenly, they noticed someone was sent flying from the second floor of the hotel. And upon looking at that figure, the mutant team was taken aback because it was Shimmer who had entered the hotel stealthily.

Tinker, quickly waved her hand and a bed made of mana suddenly appear in the place where Shimmer would be landing.

Tinker immediately ran towards the woman lying on the bed.

"She… she's unconscious!" Tinker shouted with worry.

"Damn it! It means that that guy is inside the hotel! Move! Go inside!" shouted Blast as he sent the other armed men around him.

Yet as soon as they entered the door, the men were sent flying back.

Then they saw Shin Jiao still wearing that simple shirt and jeans with a cloth covering half of his face.

"You guys are really something… But I will say it here and this time. No one is allowed to enter as long as I am around." Shin Jiao said while standing his ground.

"Do you think you can stop us?! Fire at will!" shouted Blast in anger.

They have already lost on a fighter, so he needs to finish this fight as quickly as he can before the authorities come.

Everyone started to open fire at Shin Jiao's figure who just stood there and with a quick movement tried to catch all the bullets sent towards him. However, he didn't bother with those bullets aimed at his body. He would just catch those stray bullets that would hit the hotel door and may hurt anyone inside.

After the rapid firing everyone stopped and had an incredulous look on their faces.

"I suggest everyone surrender. I promise to not do anything to those who surrender." Shin Jiao said as he threw the bullets on the ground in front of him.

His clothes are now in tatters, but his body is unharmed.

With his physique equivalent to an infant soul realm cultivator, ordinary bullets cannot harm him. If they use .50 cal bullets then they might have a chance.

Seeing the hopelessness and the failure of their mission, Blast gritted his teeth and shouted.

"Everyone! Fall back! Alpha team, protect the retreat."

With his command, everyone began to escape in all directions, right now in front of Shin Jiao stood four people, two men, and two women.

"You guys are really…" Shin Jiao muttered as he quickly moved to want to stop those who are retreating.

However, he suddenly showed a confused look on his face as he found himself unable to move as fast as he could. His movement became like a stop motion movie and became a little bit slow.

He turns his gaze towards the group and was stunned at one of the women with glowing eyes. Her red hair is raising high up in the air as she focuses her energy into her body stopping Shin Jiao's movements.

"Hmm… How long do you think you can keep that up?" Shin Jiao said with a smirk on his face.

But then, his expression suddenly changes as he saw multiple black mana balls coming towards him. And also around him, there are several bricks like objects transforming into walls.

"Mana materialization!" Shin Jiao exclaimed deep in his mind as his attention caught another young girl as she gestured with her hands while the mana formed into bricks and slowly surrounding him.

"You can't escape now, can you? This is our win." Blast said with confidence.

With a wave of his hand, he is able to create a concentrated bomb which is several times more powerful than what he is used to creating. However, the drawback of this skill is the large consumption of his energy making him feel a bit weak. But deep in his mind, he is already confident of defeating their opponent.

When his bombs were flying towards the trapped man, he saw him doing something, but he could not see it clearly as the bricks that Tinker are forming already enclosed the figure of Shin Jiao inside.

But a smirk appears on Blast's face as he shouted.

"Run!"
