Demon's infiltration part 4

/*unedited*/

The long-range transmission is one of the most anticipated research for the whole empire, the emperor has strictly instructed the two princes to do everything they can to support the research team. It has already been a week since the team from Shin County arrives and the collaboration began.

Now on top of a steep mountain stood two women, one is currently trying to calculate something as she writes something from her notes. It has been hours since they stood in this cold place and around them are people busily assembling something on the ground.

From their spatial tools, large metallic objects are being taken out. With the strength of cultivators and the mages, they slowly formed the object which looks like a honeycomb sphere in shape.

"When are you going to finish your calculation Sister Meng?" a young woman with silver hair asked.

Qian Li is the one standing beside Meng Lobai as she tried to appreciate the view from the mountain top.

The two have actually immediately hit it off after they've met each other in the Great Wu Academy Crafting building. And since then their interaction became closer. Although Qian Li also met Ai Ji still she found her too cold and would always busy herself with her research on some projects she called 'A.R. project'.

Although Meng Lobai has not interacted with Shin Jiao that long but she has observed and would always admire him from afar. So her feeling and Qian Li is almost the same.

Because of the input from the Shin County research group, the 'Long-range communication project' was done in no time. And now, they only have to launch 6 large receivers that would be able to transmit and receive data even from afar.

What baffled the Great Wu academy student assistants and teachers is the suggestion from the Shin county group. They call it 'solar panels' which is installed around the floating transmitters. This would supply them with almost unlimited energy along with the presence of spirit stones as a backup. With this technology already at hand, the group started to set up the floating transceiver spheres. After a few days of hard work, this is the last sphere that they would install before everything would become ready.

"Captain Qian Li, we have already assembled the transceiver satellite. We only need to input the right coordinates and directional transmission." One of the men shouted.

With a wave of her hand, she acknowledges that she received the information.

She then turns towards, Meng Lobai who is still calculating and using some instrument to verify her data. The instruments they are using are crafted by Tong Lei and his team. These instruments are patterned from Shin Jiao's goggles, but it uses something like a telescope.

"Sister, they are ready." Qian Li said in a low voice.

When Meng Lobai heard this she nods her head in confirmation.

Then she handed Qian Li a paper full of scribbles and numbers. Then she turned her sight towards the horizon and used the device to make sure her calculations are right.

While everyone is busy after receiving the data, Meng Lobai suddenly stood rooted to the ground unable to move. In her sight, she would not let go of the device as she zoomed in using its telescopic function.

An excited smile crept in her mouth as she muttered in a low voice.

"He's back!"

..

Shin Jiao has already been traveling using the warship that he modified for almost two weeks. Because of its speed, his return is a little slower. The size of the warship is truly huge that even with the turbine, it is still unable to fly that fast. But Shin Jiao didn't bother with this; his only goal is stability and defense.

The original design of the warship is not that sturdy when it comes to flight. But with his design, the defense of the warship was doubled and the flight and hover stability were improved by leaps and bound. Even if the warship would suffer from attacks and half of its body would be destroyed it won't fall down. However, the engine is still its weakness. So if the engine is hit then it would fall.

Yet, this is enough to be called the strongest and most domineering warship in the kingdom or even in the empire. Even those warships from Shin County would not hold a candle to this thing.

Shin Jiao is currently standing atop the warship's deck. He is calmly looking at the gigantic city at the front getting closer.

Right now, they have already lessened the speed of their warship so that the Great City of Wu won't treat them as a threat and attack.

The destruction he left in the Crow town is enough for the demons to have their hand full. After he destroyed the sphere protecting the Nian clan, every powerful cultivator in the city has already discovered the Nian clan secret and began attacking the clan wantonly. Even the Heavenly Crow sect was alarmed because of this and also set their eyes on the huge state of the Nian clan, which is full of the demon army.

"According to my estimate, it would take the demons sometime before they can break from the siege of the cultivators surrounding them.. that would be enough for me to alert the kingdom and prepare for the counter-attack."

Suddenly, Shin Jiao saw someone riding a flying sword and arriving beside the warship.

"We are the city guards. We would like you to identify yourselves!" shouted the man wearing silver armor with his hand behind his back.

"My name is Shin Jiao, from the Great Wu Academy!" Shin Jiao shouted as he took out his identification slab.

When the man saw his identity a relax expression appear on the man's face.

"If it isn't student Jiao. Welcome back to the city. Are you going to return to the academy?" The man asked in a polite way.

As a city guard, he is aware of those important people from the city. A great artificer, a young man responsible for advancing the great Wu kingdom's communication technology, and a powerful cultivator, these are the only things that would describe Shin Jiao. And his name is already a household name inside the great city.

After returning, Shin Jiao took his companions to register their identities and took them to the city. The Warship was left in the dock as it is too large to keep inside a spatial tool. Plus he didn't have a spatial ring with enough space to contain the warship.

Shin Jiao guided his companion to a building which he and the prince Mingsha Wu owned. When the people in the building saw him, they immediately greeted him with respect. He settled the girls and the Lee sibling to temporarily stay in the building. He didn't meet Mingsha Wu because he is currently with the two princes of the Xi Empire acting like a good guide.

After settling everything, Shin Jiao immediately went to the academy. And when he arrives he was shocked to see a very familiar figure talking with Meng Lobai and Tong Lei.

Suddenly the atmosphere became silent and depressing. Although everyone is showing a smiling face, however, for Shin Jiao everything is a little awkward.

When she noticed the atmosphere, Qian Li suddenly felt stunned that she didn't want to turn around. Because she knew that if she would turn and saw the person behind her, she would not help herself and show something embarrassing. So she stiffly stood there.

She can already see from the expression of shock from the faces of her companions and the excited expression from Meng Lobai and Tong Lei, that the person behind her is Shin Jiao, her master.

"Long time no see, Qian Li.." Shin Jiao's voice enters her ears and immediately melted her heart.

It was then that beads of tears keep on rolling down her eyes as all those pent up feelings inside her heart keep pouring out.

Without thinking about her appearance she immediately turns around and looks straight to his eyes and his handsome face. From that sharp glint in his eyes, Qian Li already knew that this is her real master. The real Shin Jiao which helped her became a new and a strong person.

She didn't think of anything else and just rush towards Shin Jiao and cried her heart out. Her action made everyone in the large room dumbfounded. Confusion and disbelief can be seen written all over their faces.

Shin Jiao awkwardly opened his arms to receive her. Thought he wanted to greet Qian Li and is also feeling excited upon seeing her after a long while and had just acted out of impulse; he now realized that he could not escape this situation.historical

So without a choice, he welcomed her into his arms.

Within his warm embrace, she cried and cried while saying something that even Shin Jiao could not understand. Qian Li is only a young girl after all, and only with Shin Jiao that she would usually express her true self.

This made everyone's eyes bawled in disbelief. The strict, strong, and powerful Captain Qian Li is actually acting like a little girl and is crying in the arms of a man.

But what baffled the team that came with Qian Li is the man's face. He is exactly like master Shin Jiao who is the master of Shin County. However, everyone is clearly in confusion about this situation and would just wait for an explanation from their captain.

"It seems that this is the real master of our Shin County." Suddenly Fu Rong Bai who calmly stood at the side muttered.

As a woman who has experienced life, she can already see from the facial expression of Qian Li that this man is the one who she called master. She has already noticed the cold treatment of Qian Li to the one they called master Shin Jiao in the Shin County headquarters. But this guy who looks like him is being treated differently by Qian Li, so she has inferred that this guy is the real master. Plus the technology in this place and the one they have in Shin County are closely related.

With a smile on her face, she gestured a nod.

The old man beside her heard what she has said and just quietly observed the situation in curiosity.

Then suddenly the door behind Shin Jiao opens and four young men enter.

When the people inside saw these men, they immediately showed a surprised look on their faces and bowed.
