Chapter 920 - The Inner Kingdom: The Cursed Land



Chapter 920

(Unedited)

Shin Jiao checked everyone and found that a few villagers were infected by the bacteria. Luckily he arrived and was able to administer medicine to them. He soon learned that those people visited Zepa city and just arrived yesterday.

He did not know how long do the bacteria needed before they began to spread through the body, but he is now sure that the bacteria came from Zepa city, the city where they are supposed to be heading next in their destination.

After checking everything Shin Jiao was about to leave when a tall man suddenly blocks his path.

"You… I challenge you to combat." he suddenly said with a sneer.

This man had seen how Shin Jiao treated the villagers which he looks down upon. He immediately knew that this guy is a healer or something. So he wanted to grab this chance to show his true strength to the woman he fancies, Waliska.

He is a bit jealous of this guy because of how Waliska treats him, so he wanted to show how strong he really is and that he is worthy of Waliska\'s trust and affection.

He knew that it was useless, but how could he dictate the desires of his heart?

He could not let go of his feeling for her, so he decided to show his affection through this.

Seeing the usual domineering guy, the other villagers are afraid to be implicated in this problem, so no one dares to stop him.

Shin Jiao did not have time for this. He has already taken two fruits which are already enough for him. He dare not take more, as he learned that the druids in the village treat these fruits as sacred. They would only give it to those who are really sick to extend their lives.

But the fruit of life could only do so much when eaten raw.

Yet when it is processed and its essence is taken, then it could even extend the life of a dying body. It could almost instantly heal any heavy wounds.

This is what he could see according to the properties of the fruit.

And now that he has two, he intends to plant one in the world in his dimension.

Shin Jiao did not have to lift a finger when the man in front of him suddenly floated in the air. Then with just a thought, the man was slammed to the wall and fainted.

Everyone gasped in disbelief.

"I will now go… I hope that you remind your people not to visit the city anymore." Shin Jiao said with a smile.

Waliska nodded her head and watches as the figure of Shin Jiao left the village.

Shin Jiao did not return to Fashuan village, instead, he directly flew in the direction of Zepa city. According to the account of those who just visited the city, it is about 3 days of walk to the city, or 1 day if by riding a steed.

But because he is flying, Shin Jiao arrives at the city borders in just 2 hours.

However, upon arriving, he noticed that something is wrong with the environment around the city.

After going out of the forest, in front of him is a vast land without any trace of plants or animals. The land itself is dead. While in the border of the land, sharp and thorny plants could be seen.

As Shin Jiao scanned the ground he could see that there are traces of some kind of chemicals in it. It prevents anything from growing. But the worst thing is what could be seen on the border. Those thorny plants are actually producing some kind of bacteria.

"It seems that the reason why those villagers might have been infected is because of those thorny plants." Shin Jiao thought.

He did not stay long and decided to walk towards the city.

It was already evening when he arrives in Zepa city. But he could tell that the surroundings of the city could be considered a cursed land, a land where no living thing can grow.

Upon thinking to this point, he could not help but frown and decided to investigate things further. He could not let any hidden danger stand in his plan. Shin Jiao has already decided that before leaving, he would contribute something to this land.

This way, even if he is unable to fulfill his promise to the elemental dragon Baldrix, he is still able to provide a good life for the people trapped in this world.

But of course, he also did not want to break his promise to the dragon.

So he needs to handle the thing in this city first and return to Fashaun village after.

As he approaches the city gates, he saw a long line of people. The people in the line wore different clothes which means that they belong to different groups and villages surrounding the city. Shin Jiao could tell that the kingdom seems to respect the way of life of every citizen in the inner kingdom.

"Show me your identification tab…" the tall gate guard wearing metal armor said in a deep voice.

Shin Jiao shows his identification plate which he got from Fashuan village.

When the guard saw the identification plate, he looks at his companion.

"You, come with me…" he suddenly said as he pointed at Shin Jiao.

Shin Jiao did not resist and let them take him to the side entrance. He followed the guard until they reached the city. Shin Jiao could tell that the city is a little busy but not like any other city.

This kind of foot traffic can only be compared to a small town compared to others. And this made him frown a little bit.

Plus, inside the houses, he could tell that the residents are cautious for some unknown reason.

Their windows are closed shut, and he could even see the metal bars protecting their windows.

From this scene alone he could already tell that something is wrong.

He did not say anything though and continue following the guard through the muddy streets of the city.

They soon enter a building which says \'City Administration Office\'. Upon entering, Shin Jiao could tell the heavy atmosphere inside of it.

The guard walks to the counter and then said to the person.

"From Fashuan village…"

The man behind the tall counter looks at Shin Jiao for a few seconds and nodded his head.

He then reluctantly stands up and said.

"Sir, please follow me…"

Shin Jiao did not say anything and just followed the man as they enter a corridor. Shin Jiao immediately felt something seem to have scanned his body.

It is not a spiritual sense, but something that is related to mana.

He did not react but just followed the man.

The people behind the corridor are currently looking at the transparent wall and are currently checking the two bodies walking in the corridor. It is like an x-ray machine but it is using mana energy to scan.

Shin Jiao did not act differently, but he has already seen those people behind the corridor wall. They are all mages, they are wearing dark gray robes and are wearing an insignia which he has seen before.

"Great Red tower of Anais and the Great White tower of Dugal…" he thought after seeing the insignias of the mages.

Meanwhile, inside the wall, the mages are discussing.

"His body is clear of the disease…"

"How come? This is impossible."

"I guess it is true that Fashuan village really survive and was able to develop a cure for the disease."

"This is impossible, right? We have spread the disease all over the villages and made sure that it infects everyone."

"Yes, I know but there are still those people who were able to survive. I\'m guessing that person is one of them."

"We should investigate this further before the inner kingdom discovers this."

"Ha! You worry too much, we have some strong backers in the king\'s council, why should we be afraid?"

Shin Jiao just quietly listens to them and soon arrives in front of a room.

He then enters a room and was asked to wait.

After 30 minutes, Shin Jiao noticed a figure coming from one of the offices where there are many men in the city\'s official robe talking.

As he enters the room, he showed a slight frown on his face.

"I\'ve heard that you came from Fashuan village." The man did not greet him and just asked this question immediately.

Shin Jiao did not feel comfortable and just nodded his head. His mature and calm demeanor made the man who sits on the chair quite taken aback.

He did not expect to see a villager act this way. And has not experienced such a demeanor from any lowly villager. Yet he has already accepted this fact upon seeing the clothing that his man is wearing.

"I am Meng Wanting, one of the city affairs managers." He said as he extended his hand.

"Shin Jiao, from Fashuan village."

The two shook hands as Meng Wanting offers Shin Jiao some tea.
