Chapter 848 - The Deep Forest Denizens (2)



Chapter 848

(Unedited)

The deep forest was suddenly awakened as the loud rumbling began to shake the ground. Many beasts have already run away as they did not want to be embroiled in this battle between two powerful creatures.

Trees destroyed and ground shattered, this is what one can see in this part of the forest as two figures could be seen battling it out, one against another.

Shin Jiao\'s body is covered with dust and some parts of his clothes are torn as he puts up his two fists with a strangely contented smile on his face.

He is right, the snake truly provides him with a great level of challenge as his level right now is the same as the snake.

Now with 40 plus spheres inside his dantian filled with mana energy, his strength is on par with that of a late-stage gold core realm cultivator, or that of an Archmage.

His strength is growing day by day, but it is also being depleted as he would still use them in crafting and in traveling, so his strength is not constant.

In fact, if there is no energy in his dantian, then Shin Jiao\'s strength would be like that of the others who came from the immortal land. The only reason why he is this strong is because of the spheres inside of him which are filled with mana energy.

And so, he carefully assessed his strength and showed a satisfactory smile. This is because, in that fight, he did not use any powerful skills that would deplete his mana. All he used his brute strength and technique to fight against the monster in front of him.

"This has given me a good exercise. I have not had a good battle for a long time, you know." He said as a smile crept on his face.

The giant snake, on the other hand, had an ugly expression on its face. How could it know that this small human would be this strong? It thought that the human was a mage; however, from the way he fought, it seems that the human is actually a strong warrior.

Right now, its body is filled with pain though it does not have any external wounds. The snake knew that the punches that the human sent to its body have caused it many internal wounds. That\'s why its body feels a bit painful.

"Don\'t tell me that you are already giving up? We are just starting, you know…" Shin Jiao said with a smirk.

The giant snake suddenly showed fear in its eyes as it suddenly turns around without a second thought to escape this… monster.

That small human is the real monster in this forest. So it needed to get away from that… thing.

But how could Shin Jiao let it escape? With its huge body, it can provide meat for its crew that has already grown to such a degree. The snake is a 4th level beast, and it could give high energy and nutritional value, so how could he let it escape? Plus its scales and skin would be a good material to make armors and shields.

With that in mind, Shin Jiao suddenly takes out the black katana inside his dimension.

Once it comes out, the escaping snake immediately feels by instinct that it is now in a dangerous situation.

"No… I must escape!" the giant snake thought as it tried to move fast.

However, who would have known that its body would suddenly feel a bout of pain at this moment. Before it could even escape, it has already frozen stiff due to pain.

Then without any suspense, Shin Jiao cut its head off cleanly in one stroke.

"Because you gave me a chance to entertain myself, I have given you a swift death…" Shin Jiao muttered as he did not bother with the snake\'s body for a while as it is still twitching.

Shin Jiao began cutting a number of trees he needed to make his ship. Then after that, he absorbs them inside his dimension along with the large carcass of the giant snake.

Shin Jiao\'s next goal is to find the lair of the giant snake. With its age and because it has the ability to talk, it might have been living for many years in this place. Shin Jiao knew that if he visits its lair, then he might find some treasure in it.

After doing what he needed to do, he returns to the small cave he made and saw the small woman still lying on the ground sleeping.

But as he scanned her he knew that she is already awake. So he takes out some food from his dimension and walks near her.

"Hey, I know that you are awake… eat something first, then we can talk." Shin Jiao said in human language.

The woman did not move for a while, but Shin Jiao has already seen her stiffen when her acting of being unconscious was revealed.

She bit her lips and slowly turns around while wrapping herself with the blanket tightly.

"Can you understand me?" Shin Jiao asked.

The small woman did not look him in the eyes and just nodded her head.

"Okay, that\'s good… I have already cured your wounds, and the child in your belly is safe. You can leave this place anytime soon, but I have some questions if you don\'t mind… here… eat first…" Shin Jiao said with a gentle smile.

The small woman seems to have relaxed for a bit as she slowly looks at Shin Jiao.

In fact, she is actually afraid of this man who is able to contend against that giant snake. That\'s right… she was actually woken up by their battle. When she peeks outside the cave, she saw a human battling against the giant snake. That snake is about to become a dragon in about 10 years, but it was still defeated by this human easily.

How could she not be afraid of him?

But seeing that he has no hostile intention towards her, she seems to feel relieved.

Shin Jiao handed her a piece of bread that some of the Mages from the ship has cooked. Shin Jiao found those types of bread delicious, so he always brings some with him.

A slender tanned arm slowly reached out and took the bread from his hand. She glanced at him as if checking his reaction and then slowly nibbles on the bread in her hands. She seems to be still afraid of Shin Jiao.

Shin Jiao backs away so that the small woman would feel at ease.

"I am Shin Jiao… What\'s your name?" he asked casually.

The small woman did not reply as if thinking if she would tell him her name or not. But Shin Jiao waited patiently.

"Loom… Loombwark Diggingsons…" she said in a low slightly hoarse voice.

"Hmm… that\'s a… new type of name that I have not heard of before. Anyway, would it be okay, if I call you Miss Loo? You can just call me Shin." Shin Jiao said with a smile.

The small woman nodded her head.

"Why are you deep in the forest? This is a very dangerous place…" he said as he takes out a bottle of water.

As he handed it to the small woman, her eyes suddenly showed bewilderment in them. As someone who belongs and lived with the dwarven race, though she is not a pure dwarf, she has seen many of the finest craftsmanship of her diligent kind.

However, she has not seen this type of craftsmanship before. The bottle in her hand is transparent and the liquid inside could clearly be seen. But what baffled her is that the container is not made of glass but of something else.

She carefully smells the water inside and upon sensing that it is not dangerous, she carefully takes a mouthful of water. Her expression changes upon tasting the cool and refreshing taste of the water inside the plastic bottle.

"Do you have a village nearby? I can take you there if you want to?" Shin Jiao suddenly said.

When she heard his words, the expression of the small woman suddenly became gloomy. Shin Jiao noticed some traces of tears forming at the corner of her eyes.

Shin Jiao could guess that something might have happened in her village. So he did not say anything anymore. He knew that some things could not be forced and all he has is time. So he waited…

The small woman suddenly looks outside the cave and then with a sorrowful voice, she began to narrate to him about her small village that is located near the Dragon\'s Ridge. It is a place where many types of powerful creatures seemed to be congregating.

In the outskirts of the Dragon\'s Ridge, there are many small villages that live in seclusion while getting along with the denizens of the forest. And one of those villages is where she came from. A village filled with dwarves that have tunneled through a mountain and have created a small kingdom deep within.

The village is only a disguise of the dwarves to hide their true power which is located deeper into the heart of the mountain, and that power is called the Dwarven Kingdom of Amrot.
