As Mark and Shang Wen went inside the tent, the lady asked her maid, "Chang Xinyi, find everything about that guy. I want to know who is he that his highness who didn't even bat an eye to me but act cheerful towards him."
Meanwhile, inside the tent, the second prince let out a sigh of relief and took a seat, "thank you, Lu Zhen. If you hadn't come in time, I would have been suffocated by that snake."
"If you don't mind me asking, who is that lady? Based on her clothes, she looked like a noble." Mark was curious.
"She's Yuan Meili, the third daughter of Yuan Weishi. He is the governor of Northern Yuan Province. My late mother used to be friends with her mother and once upon a time before I was born before my mother married my father, they jokingly made a pact to wed their children to each other.
After I lost my mother, this family didn't even care about my existence and when I finally became the general, they suddenly remembered Lady Yuan's friendship with my mother. What a bunch of annoying people…" After rattling out for a while, he sighed once again before he looked at Mark, "So, Lu Zhen, what are you here, for? There's still a week before our agreement for the next batch of bullets."Mark replied, "I was passing by. One of your soldiers Lei Jin recognized me and invited me to the campsite."
"No. A person like you will never come all the way here, just to greet me. I'm sure that even if the Emperor is camping here, you wouldn't accept the invitation for no reason." The Second Prince was blunt with his response. He didn't buy the excuse at all.
Mark felt as if he was seen through once again. He couldn't help but remember the last time, during the dungeon break, the second prince left behind a note, warning him not to be reckless with using the battle tank. As a result, Mark was forced to make a huge detour to take them by surprise from behind.
He directly opened the inventory and took out a gun that weighs atleast 10 kg.
*Thud*
He placed it on the table, rather casually. "This is M99, a .50 caliber rifle type firearm that can accurately shoot the targets from 1800 meters. As for its absolute range, it is about 2600 meters but its accuracy drops heavily."
"2600 meters?" The Second Prince was visibly shocked and just stared at the rifle.Mark continued to explain, "You have a telescopic sight (scope), right here, which even has a 10x zoom feature so that it is easy to target from far away.
However, unlike with P365 that you are using here, this one is a single shot. That means you need to load one bullet after another.
Mark then took out a 12.7x99mm bullet and showed it to the second prince, "you need these types of bullets to shoot from this rifle. And each of them is powerful enough to take out the 3-circle realm Spirit Warrior of the intermediate stage. If the target is a mage or another Spirit Path other than Fighter, you can even take out the beginner/elementary stage of the 4-circle realm.
Since you can shoot it from far away, the one who mastered this weapon can shoot the eyes of your target while you fight. After all, the eyes are sensitive parts. Whether it is a 1-circle realm or 7-circle realm, eyes are always vulnerable but of course, if they are protected by energy, nothing can be done, just saying. All I can say is that these are the perfect tools for…"
"Assassination," Shang Wen finished the sentence with a dazed expression. The weapon he saw last time and the one he saw now are entirely on different levels.
"That's right." Mark nodded.
The enemy would care even commoners if they are well equipped in armor and have weapons in their hands but what if they are placed far away?
Shang Wen couldn't help but imagine a scenario where a commoner was placed on the rooftop of high-story buildings or on the top of the hills.
After thinking for a brief amount of time, the second prince commented, "I bet this won't be cheap."
Mark replied with a nod, "It isn't easy to make such a weapon. Even though I only possess one, 10 more will be procured by the end of the week. As for the cost, 250 gold coins per rifle. The special bullet, on the other hand, costs only 1 gold coin."
"That's within my expectations." The second prince was calmer when he heard the price. Remembering something from the past, he further said, "This isn't the weapon you mentioned during our last meet, right?"
Mark waved his hands, "of course, not, your highness. It will take atleast a couple of weeks before its prototype gets ready but if you are interested, I can ask my manufacturers to complete it by next week."
The second prince nodded and then stared at the rifle. "Can I hold it?"
Mark gestured with his two hands.
Shang Wen stood up on his feet and walked forward. He lifts the rifle. "It's heavy."
Mark pointed to the inverted 'V' shape stand, "Yes. That's why there's the mount."
Shang Wen put it down again, "let's not go too far. It was only recently my subordinates were training with small ones. I'll check this one out, next week, during my visit to Imperial city."
Mark was disappointed that he couldn't make a deal. Unlike in his past world, the selling of weapons here is too easy and there's a lot of business potential when the client is none other than the military.
But, he didn't back away from trying. Now that he came all the way, he would procure at least one deal.
Placing it back into the inventory, he said, "If that's the case, then, I have a simple but destructive weapon. Power-wise, this weapon can kill a 5-circle realm Spirit Warrior or Beast."
"What did you say?" The second prince, who put down the rifle and walked away, abruptly turned his head and spoke loudly. If the previous was a surprise, then, this one gave enough shock to skip his heartbeat for a moment.
Mark calmly took out the rocket launcher and a 110mm heat round from the inventory, placing them on the table. "Behold Pzf 3 –IT600 or you can simply call it as a rocket launcher. I won't go into too much detail and waste your time. It has an absolute range of 600 meters.
Each warhead will automatically self-destruct upon either contact or traveling 600 meters, blowing up everything in the vicinity with the power of the 5-circle realm (intermediate stage).
On a side note, the explosion range will be about a 30-meter radius. So, one also had to be careful when firing it.
This weapon costs 1000 gold coins and each warhead costs about 5 gold coins. So far, this is the most expensive of my collection. I'm sure whether to sell such a dangerous weapon to the public. So, I haven't ordered them anymore either. If your highness is interested, I can try it. If not, please do recommend me a few noteworthy people to whom I can sell it without worrying."
"I want a live demonstration." This time, the second prince didn't even take time to think and asked for a demo.
