Weapon seller in the world of magic

The moment Lan Ju spoke, all the arguments were shut down and the matter is settled.

Perhaps, it is because of his powerful cultivation, or perhaps, it is because Lan Ju had admitted that he is a servant of Mark, not his backing. Or it might even be because Qin Mo wanted to get back at Mark for giving more respect to Yang Bingwen.

Whatever the case, Emperor Qin had agreed to witness the demonstration of the weapon that Mark intended to sell to the imperial family.

However, Mark wasn’t happy. He felt the same that Qin Mo earlier felt.

After killing immortal realm beasts in the trial, Mark was under the impression that he is more powerful than the zheng even in its peak state.

With Lan Ju’s loyalty crossed 50% and behaving really like a loyal servant lately, Mark was already feeling superior to the zheng and that is why he didn’t like the sudden change in the behavior of the emperor.

But, then again, since he planned to remove him from the start, for the sake of achieving his goal, Mark suppressed his useless pride and followed the Emperor to a remote location within the city. By the time they reached it, it was already too dark and the lack of street lamps only made it darker.

Of course, the low visibility shouldn’t be a problem for supreme realm experts. Hence, neither the emperor was uncomfortable nor Mark was worried. Night vision is a passive ability of Supreme realm experts that don’t need any training. So, Mark could see the area around him without any problems.

However, Qin Yu wasn’t strong enough to have such abilities. Hence, he couldn’t see a thing. But, still, since Mark promised him that the lack of night vision wouldn’t hinder him to watch the demonstration, Qin Yu stayed hopeful.

Upon confirming that there were no civilians in a hundred-meter radius, Mark started walking forward alone while taking out a white-colored round object that looked more like a digital weighing machine.

After walking for a while, he stopped at a five-foot big rock and placed it on top of it before returning back to his companions who were standing atleast 90 meters away from the spot.

”Is that the weapon, Mr. Lu?” asked the grand elder of the Xianshu sect. ”And what will happen now?”

Mark let out a smile and raised the remote in his hand, ”well, you can find it out with your own eyes.”

”Okay, do whatever you want to,” said Qin Mo, displaying a bit of impatience.

Mark ignored him and went on explaining to Qin Yu instead. He showed the digital meter on the remote.

”After we set the timer, it will be displayed here. Right now, I didn’t set anything. So, it was showing 0.

Anyways, I will tell you the details on the way. But, first things first, keep your eyes on your 1 o’clock.”

As Qin Yu nodded and looked in that direction, Mark went on to press the big red button placed at the bottom of the remote.

*Boom*

Once he pressed it, in just a fraction of a second, an enormous explosion occurred before their eyes, turning nearly three acres of land into barren.

The loud explosion startled the people living within a one-kilometer radius and even the others roaming the streets of the imperial jingyu city couldn’t help but panic for a moment.

Qin Yu stepped back in surprise and lost his footing, falling on his butt while his father, the Emperor turned serious. ”More than eleven thousand sq. meters of land was impacted with the explosion power of a low-5-circle.”

He remembered Mark’s threat about the enemies possessing these weapons.

If a single weapon can do this much damage, then, what if a hundred of them get detonated at once within the city? Not to mention, these can be operated by civilians. No, he cannot allow that to happen.

Qin Mo’s mind already started to think of a strategy for using these weapons and he asked in curiosity, ”earlier, you pressed that button and the explosion happened. From how far can you do that? And how many can you provide within one month span of time?”

”Yes, the fish is hooked…” Mark wiped off his fake smile and replaced it with a genuine one upon realizing that the client is now curious about buying this.

He turned his head and looked at the emperor, ”100 meters is the maximum range one can operate this advanced version of C4 through this remote control. If not, you can set the timer beforehand and enjoy the explosion from far away too.

As for how many, at the moment, I have a limited number. But, if you order in advance, by next month on the same date, I can sell you not more than 1000 in number. However, each one is priced at 700 gold coins.

If you need a basic version, which has the power of a 4-circle strength detonation, a 25-meter radius, and comes without a remote, then, it will cost you 150 gold coins per each.

And if you wish to sell these explosives only for the imperial family, then, it will cost an additional 1 million gold coins per year. That means during that time, our weapon store will exclusively sell it to you and only you.

Of course, we will also pledge that our store will guarantee to sell you atleast 10,000 of them during the booking time.

So, what do you think?”

”700 gold coins per each and 1 million for exclusive?” Emperor Qin fell into deep thoughts, comparing its worth with a battle tank that costs 500 gold coins.

Seeing Qin Mo pondering on the matter for a while, Mark further told him that he will be staying at the Xianshu sect until the end of the tournament (4 days). The imperial palace can send its reply before he leaves for Leon Empire.

The Emperor didn’t say anything and silently nodded. After all, such an amount of money is not a small thing that he can casually spend on one-time usage explosives.

The next day morning;

The bicorn carriages left the imperial palace and started the journey to their next destination, the Xianshu Mountain, which is located nearby the southwestern border of the Kun Empire and Leon Empire.

Inside the front carriage, alongside Lan Ju, Baltrow (manticore), and the Black Knight (Song Yu), the Xianshu sect’s grand elder (Yang Bingwen) also appeared to be traveling with them.

He was interested to get into the good books of Lan Ju for his own selfish needs. If the patriarch learns that he had the support of a Supreme Being, his position in the sect will become higher than the other two grand elders. It will increase his probability of becoming the next Patriarch once the current one retires.

This was also the reason he personally made the trip to the imperial palace to invite Qin Mo and put forth the marriage proposal.

Unfortunately for him, Lan Ju, who was sensitive to people’s emotions and thoughts, already discovered this. Yet, he played along for the sake of his master’s ambition.

It is like they were trying to use each other for their own goals except that Yang Bingwen will likely be abandoned once the tournament is finished.

The time ticked and the bicorns were traveling at their peak speed, eventually reaching the place before sunset.
