Weapon seller in the world of magic

A few hours later at Kunyu bandits’ hideout;

Mark was walking back and forth in his room while checking out his pocket watch from time to time. ”The cooldown should have been over. What’s taking so long?”

He has been this way for the past couple of hours, being nervous and excited at the same time. The anticipation is occupying his mind so much that he refused to eat lunch until he receives the notification.

At half past one in the afternoon, his wait was finally over with a familiar sound ringing in his ears, followed by a series of notifications on the holographic screen.

”System, you are back. I really missed you,” said Mark in excitement as soon as he received a series of notifications. It’s been four weeks and stuff happened. So, yes, he indeed missed the system. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for the latter.

It responded in its usual style.

*Ding! Thank you, however, the consciousness of the system has been in a sleeping mode. Hence, the system cannot say that it missed the host.

”Yeah, you are indeed the sassy system that I remembered.” Mark was too happy to mind its cold reply.

He opened the quest list and went on to click on them one by one.

*Ding! You completed side quest-I. Ether sniping rifle and Ether assault rifle were unlocked in the gallery.

Side Quest-I: Earn a total of 10 million gold coins from selling the weapons created by the system excluding all types of ammunition (In progress-0%)

Reward: Battle Tank-IV (Gold grade), Rocket launcher (Gold grade), and Battle Suit (gold grade)

”Hmm, battle suit? Sounds like my exoskeleton suit of lower grade. Very cool but earning 10 million will take a lot of time through normal sales that don’t include ammunition…”

Mark continued to scroll down.

*Ding! You completed the side quest-IV, Tame ten monsters. You received Taming skills.

*Ding! You completed side quest-III. The amulet of Diyu has been sent to the inventory.

*Ding! You received a new side quest-III.

*Ding! You completed the side quest-III, Spend a total of 5,000,000 credits. You received a title, Great customer

Title: VIP customer

Description: upon equipping this title, the user could purchase any weapon in bulk with a chosen number of items at one time.

”Well, this is a great one actually. Now, I could just purchase bullets in bulk without worrying about wasting my time.”

Mark continued to scroll down the notifications keeping a satisfactory smile on his face.

*Ding! You received a new side quest-III.

Side Quest-III: Spend a total of 50,000,000 credits.

Reward: Staff of Blessing.

”Hmm? The staff of Blessing? I wonder what that is. Is it like that Dragon statue that gives me free rewards?”

Without taking a look at further notifications, he contacted the system for its details.

*Ding!

Staff of Blessing

Grade: N/A

Description: Using the staff of blessing, the user can grant his original stats to anyone for a brief amount of time. The greater the number of targets, the lesser the time limit. Once used, 24 hours are needed for the reactivation of its ability.

”hmm?”

Mark read the description a couple of times to confirm whether he understood it correctly or not. Once he confirmed it, he inquired with the system in order to understand the potential of this staff.

”System, what if I use this to empower the rank-1 battle robots, let’s say ten of them? How much time will they be able to wield my power?”

Mark wasn’t interested to give powers to the humans. He only wanted to know whether he can create a powerful army of robots that can not only operate the battle tanks and other weapons but also fight with the enemies through fists.

And it appeared that he was extremely fortunate. The system gave him a great piece of news.

*Ding! The host can grant the blessing to ten battle robots of rank-1 for a period of 30 minutes. The time can be extended further if the host grants the blessing of lesser stats.

”30 minutes?” Mark gasped at once. He expected it would be like five or ten minutes. But, knowing that it is more than an hour, he couldn’t help but imagine the scenario of hundred robots.

He asked it right away. ”What if there were like a hundred of them?”

*Ding! 3 minutes.

”3 minutes? Wow. I can have an army of 100 robots with a 9-circle realm cultivation level for 3 whole minutes. That will be enough to crush any empire’s army. And what if I become a Demiod in the future?

With such an army, even if the entire world united to fight against me, they will still lose. All I need to make sure that the robots were equipped with proper weapons...”

*Ding! Rank-1 battle robots cannot handle the power of demigods. They will crumble to powder in an instant if the host attempts such a thing. Rank-9 battle robots are recommended for such action.

*Ding! Rank-1 battle robots can only handle the power of the Supreme realm for a brief period of five minutes. After that, they will be destroyed by overloading. Rank-6 battle robots are recommended for such action.

*Ding! It is recommended to use rank-6 stats on battle robots of rank-1.

”Ah, is that so?” Mark was slightly disappointed by the reality, making him realize that he was getting too far ahead of himself.

But then again, having an army of a bunch of rank-6 robots also sounded awesome. of course, that doesn’t mean he will not use rank-9 stats on the battle robots for the time being. Each of them only cost 200 gold coins.

Hence, he can just spend some money and use those robots for five minutes. Those crucial five minutes will be enough to win a war, in Mark’s opinion.

After calming down by taking deep breaths, he then mumbled, ”enough fooling around. Let’s focus on what I have acquired so far, not on the ones that are still far away.”

Mark went back to the notification window to read the rest.

*Ding! You completed the main quest, Breakthrough to rank-7. You receive 64,000 credits. Your share in the weapons sale increases to 80%.

*Ding! You failed to choose the advanced pathway between Dungeon Creator and Tamer. As a result, the host’s profession will continue to stay on the path of a summoner.

*Ding! You completed the main quest, Breakthrough to rank-8. You receive 256,000 credits. Your share in the weapons sale increases to 90%.

*Ding! You completed the main quest, Breakthrough to rank-9. You receive 1,024,000 credits. Your share in the weapons sale increases to 100%.

*Ding! Congratulations on achieving the Supreme realm. You received a mysterious package from the system as an appreciation gift.

*Ding! You received a new main quest.

Main Quest: Become Rank-10

Reward: 10,000,000 credits, random Mythril grade item.

*Ding! You received a trade request from the system. Trade Yu’s Jade Pipa for 30 million credits.

*Ding! You received a trade request from the system. Trade Wang Zuo, the Divine throne (damaged) for 100 million credits.

*Ding! You received a trade request for Talim’s items (Eye of Talim and Staff of Talim). Trade the weapons for a combined amount of 10 million credits or 1 Upgrade crystal (Superior grade).

He acquired 11 more semi-divine weapons but the system was interested in only those four. The others were ignored. Hence, Mark was sure that he needed to dismantle them for credits.

But, before that, there were several things that are left to do like checking out the rewards, new features, new items in the store, etc…

And the first thing he decided to do is to open the gift.

”Open inventory.”

He scrolls down for a while before finding the image of a cardboard box with a question mark on top of it.

Mark proceeded to click on it and then proceeded to open it.

The box disappeared and a number of things popped up in the inventory while he received new notifications.

*Ding! You opened the mysterious package. An upgrade crystal (superior), an upgrade stone (superior), a lottery pick ticket (14 days), a unique skill, B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, and Mark 14 nuclear bomb (one-time use).

”Man… today is my lucky day or what… These rewards are too awesome. I guess I really did a good thing on upgrading it to rank-9. A B-2 spirit stealth bomber? It’s one of the coolest aircraft ever built. I always wanted to bring it back but costs too high to build one…

The upgrade stone can be used on the missile defense system. The upgrade crystal can be used on Allen. There’s one upgrade crystal in an unfinished quest and another can be acquired through the trade if I play my cards right in negotiation.

I can give both of them to Alina, making her reach rank-8 just like that. Speaking of Alina and Allen, I wonder what they were doing.”

Due to the sudden urge about contacting his dear android siblings, Mark asked the system to send a message to Alina. However, the reply from the system didn’t appear to be positive.

*Ding! Alina Spencer’s current status is dead.

”What did you say?” Mark’s facial expression changed drastically.
