The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1293

…

That night, Xin Ja lays on the bed while looking at the ceiling. The room he is in right now is very large with around 10 bunks beds.

His fellow trainees are already sleeping while he is still awake and having a deep thoughts.

"I don\'t need to train to be a field medic… I\'m already trained to do that at the other side." Xin Ja thought.

"But field medics can go out and face monsters, right?"

"No… I don\'t think that is possible… I think field medics would just stay in an area and wait…"

After tossing and turning for a while, Xin Ja still could not sleep.

Soon, he noticed that it was already morning the next day and he still could not decide.

"Nah… Whatever, I\'ll just decide after learning more about this place… I still have 2 days to decide."

After thinking as such he stood up and then walked towards the door.

As he was about to go out, he saw an instructor walking inside with a stern expression on his face.

"Where are you going trainee?" the instructor suddenly asked while looking at Xin Ja.

"I… I\'m going out to prepare …" Xin Ja replied.

"Stay… It\'s time for the morning call…"

After saying that, the instructor blows the whistle hanging on his neck.

Prrrt!!!

Everyone inside the room jumped as they were forcefully jolted from their sleep.

The beginning of the training day made everyone feel excited and nervous at the same time.

Soon, the trainees undergo some rigorous exercises to make their bodies strong and robust. This way, the trainees would be able to handle the hunt outside of the city and might be able to survive.

After the rigorous exercise was the combat classes.

Porters are taught basic self-defense skills, like punching and kicking.

This way, they will have a fighting chance against their enemies.

After the basic self-defense training, the group proceeds to weapon training.

Now, this is what Xin Ja was waiting for. He wanted to see firsthand how strong the beast buster weapon is.

As the group walks to a field, they could see another group already in there and are being instructed. Meanwhile, he noticed the group of people that are training to be field medics.

"So they are also training on how to shoot." He thought as his eyes saw a familiar woman standing behind the crowd while talking to a teacher.

That woman seems to feel his gaze as she looks in his direction.

Xin Ja did not avert his gaze from her but instead looks her straight in the eyes and nodded his head in greetings.

The woman showed a faint smile on her face and then looks back at the teacher she is talking to.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The loud explosion made everyone feel startled. Even though they already knew, and have already heard of the explosion coming from this place, they were still caught off guard.

Xin Ja frowned as he looks at the shooting range.

Although the explosion is loud and powerful, the trajectory of the bullets is off the mark.

He quickly scanned the weapon and quickly realized what is wrong with it.

"Hmm… No Rifling…"

Xin Ja lined up and observe the trainee shooting the beast buster one after another.

"This weapon is truly powerful… If I can modify it, then I can surely have a chance to hurt a Ki Master…" he thought.

But of course as of this strength now, he is unable to still fight against Ki Masters as their speed is far superior to his.

Soon, when it was his turn, Xin Ja casually shots the gun, but for some unknown reason, he was able to hit the target standing at 200 meters.

He was stupefied along with the rest of the trainees and teachers in the area.

"Damn… by instinct… I aligned the gun to the proper trajectory for the bullet to hit the target." He thought.

It was not his plan to do so, but he actually did it and now has gotten the attention of everyone.

"I told you not to stand out…" a small female voice whispered behind him.

Xin Ja shifted his head and then showed an awkward smile.

"That was just a lucky shot…" he said.

"I think that was just a lucky shot…" a teacher frowned as he handed another loaded gun at Xin Ja.

Xin Ja accepted the gun and then pointed it at a new target.

Bang!

This time is missed.

But Marie Jill frowned when she saw what happened. Actually noticed the slight adjustment that Xin Ja did in his first shot.

As a D-rank awakened, her eyes are superior to those lower than her. She could observe those slight changes that Xin Ja did while shooting.

"This guy is hiding his strength… interesting…" she thought with a smirk.

"I already have my eyes on you… no matter what, you cannot escape me… Hehe…"

After the training, Xin Ja had dinner and while seated at a table, he frowned when he saw the same woman, Lea Osmond following him.

She was the one who warned him about standing out from the crowd.

"Could you tell me why you did not want me to stand out?" suddenly Xin Ja asked.

"Sigh… You will be in deep trouble if you did. You know that we are porters, right?" she replied.

He nodded then thinks for a while.

"You figure it out…" she suddenly smiles.

"But I would say that hitting that 200-meter target is quite cool." She added.

He just showed a faint smile and continues eating.

Suddenly, he felt a cold sensation coming from behind him.

When he took a side-way glance, he noticed a burly man glaring at him.

This guy was not present yesterday, so he felt confused about how he offended the guy. But Xin Ja did not have time to bother with him as he is already drafting his future plan inside his head.

No matter where he is, he needed to grow stronger as soon as possible.

He did not know what would happen in the future and he felt worried about Rou Chenchen. So he needed to be strong as soon as possible.

After planning in his mind, he stood up and then was about to leave when that burly man stood up and suddenly showed a sinister grin on his face.

The guy wanted to pretend to have bumped into him accidentally. He plans to embarrass Xin Ja in front of the crowd.

But as he pretended to trip his legs and pushes Xin Ja, he suddenly froze.

This is because he could not push the small figure of Xin Ja in front of him.

p Xin Ja looks at him as if he is looking at an idiot.

"What?" he suddenly shouted.

"What… what?" Xin Ja asked showing confusion.

Seeing that his plan failed, the guy became enraged. He felt a bit humiliated because of what just happened.

He suddenly stood straight and then pushes Xin Ja with all his might.

But how could a mere F-rank push Xin Ja\'s body when he is already a Ki Adept? F-ranks only have the strength of Ki fighters and not their speed, so they are far too weak compared to him.

Xin Ja suddenly straighten up, but before he could take action Lea Osmond caught his hand.

"Do not lower yourself to his level…" she whispered.

This little action made the two look a bit affectionate which thoroughly enrages the guy.

Ever since he first laid his eyes on Lea Osmond, he has already fallen for her. He promised himself to confess once the training is over. But who would have known that a pretty boy would beat him to it?

In his rage, he wanted to beat that guy up and humiliate him in front of Lea so that she could see that he is weak and is not worthy of her.

Xin Ja looks at the guy and then frowned.

He is still a young man after all and no matter what, he came from a place where fighting is prevalent. But from the words of the woman, he became cautious as he knew that the union building has many strong and powerful people.

Seeing that Xin Ja did not want to fight him, the man sneered.

"Coward… just go and run away…" he snarled.

Xin Ja shook his head and turns around to leave. But a flying food tray flew right at him and hit him on his back. Xin Ja stopped but then squinted as he walks away.

Lea Osmond heaves a sigh of relief that Adam did not fight back.

"I wish that he could hold his temper… If not, then he might be assigned as a porter involved in hunting… If that is the case then he would surely be in trouble." She thought.

She did not know why she is helping the young man, but whenever she looks at him, she would see her brother in his presence.

Lea did not stay in the mess hall and quickly followed Xin Ja. Her action made the man once again feel enraged.
