"Okay, another mysterious reward," Mark mumbled as he stared at the last side quest. As usual, he enquired about the matter with the system.
*Ding! Amulet of Diyu is an artifact that belongs to the King of Hell, which can summon a demon from hell for the host to form a contract.
"Okay, that's a cool one." Mark was satisfied with the reward he will soon acquire but for now, he need to pay attention to the current ones that he had already acquired.
Mark opened the inventory and searched for the statue.
He found a slot with an image of a dragon that is changing its colors every second. Mark clicked on it.
*Ding! Do you like to place the Statue of Velkazar inside the store or integrate it with the system?
"Integrate? Explain it clearly." Mark said to the system.
*Ding! The first option will let the host pray for the divine dragon Velkazar every week and has a 50% chance to receive a random reward. The host's luck only affects the rewards but not the percentage.
*Ding! Upon choosing the second option, the system will absorb the power within the statue of Velkazar and let the host obtain an item by 100%. However, the cooldown will be increased to 14 days.
"Hmm, well, if I go away like the last time, I would probably need to take the statue with me, every time." After analyzing the pros and cons, Mark decided to pick the second option. The statue disappeared from the inventory and he was asked to wait for 20 minutes.
In the meantime, he checked out the other rewards.
As he was already tricked because of the system's recommendation and used up an Upgrade crystal he earned from Lottery Wheel, he didn't feel the need to save up the remaining one.
Mark used up the Upgrade Crystal to upgrade his ether quality once again. With nothing else to do, he waited.
20 minutes later;
*Ding! Statue of Velkazar is successfully integrated with the system.
"System, open the Statue of Velkazar."
Just like the lottery wheel, a simple holographic screen appeared before him with an image of a rainbow dragon. It was quite beautiful to look at one glance.
There was a wish option below its image. He clicked on it right away. It grayed out and a timer had started, 13 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes.
Meanwhile, a new screen popped up with a notification.
*Ding! You received a buff, +1 strength point for 24 hours.
"Oh, the statue can even provide buffs? It's even better than giving items but it's a pity... sigh…" Mark was happy that he received something good for free but physical strength is of no use to him, at present. "Okay, anyway, time to get back to work."
"System, Open Gallery"
Putting everything aside, Mark started his production started. He had a big order from Feng Wu. The weapons are easy to make. It's the ammunition that is the problem. 200,000 bullets cannot be produced quickly. It is a time-consuming task.
"If only there's an additional helper, this would have been pretty easy… Sigh…"
Mark couldn't help but sigh upon remembering that the Androids don't have the authority to create the weapons through the system.
Forty minutes later;
*Ding! Your ether quality is successfully increased to High.

Imperial Palace;
At a royal guest room, a 15-yr-old princess was reading a novel while looking after her unconscious friend.
From time to time, she was glancing at him, wondering why he isn't waking up
All of a sudden, Ji Cheng stormed inside, alerting her. Seeing a furious expression on his face, she asked, "Uncle Ji, is everything alright? What did Father say?"
"You can ask your father, Shang Jiao. We won't get our justice here." Upon realizing that he was speaking in a rude tone, Ji Cheng took a deep breath and said, "I apologize, Princess Jiao. We will be leaving for our home, right away."
"Eh?" Shang Jiao was taken aback by his decision. Meanwhile, the two also entered the room.
She asked, "What happened? Please explain it clearly, Uncle Ji."
Instead of Ji Cheng, an elder of Ji Clan, Ji Wen explained the matter, leading the princess to frown. "Lu Zhen? A beast emperor? In that case, Father will try to befriend him."
"I know. I expected that, Princess," said Ji Cheng while trying his best to control his anger. "But, I had hopes on our friendship. So, I waited there without moving for two hours. In the end, he refused to help us. I no longer have a reason to stay here and humiliate myself."
After informing his decision, he turned his head, "Elder Wen, please carry Guanli to the carriage."
Just as the elder of Ji clan walked to pick up the young master, Shang Jiao stopped him, "Wait, I'll convince my father. As long as I'm here, I won't let my friend face injustice."
She immediately rushed out of the room and went to the Emperor's Chamber where her father was doing some calligraphy.
"Father…" She called out in a bit of a loud tone.
"Xiao Jiao?" The Emperor turned his head. The moment he sent away Ji Cheng and others, he expected her outburst. "Come in," he said calmly.
"Father, you cannot do injustice to the victims because of your personal reasons. The Emperor had to be fair to all the subjects when making a decision." The daughter tried to lecture her own father.
Usually, if a prince does that, he would get an earful but she is Shang Fu's favorite child despite the fact that she inherited her maternal side's bloodline. So, he didn't take it as an offense and calmly replied to her, "If the victim isn't Ji Guanli and is someone else, would you react the same? If I'm the Emperor, then, you are also a princess, my daughter."
Shang Jiao was stumped for a moment before she said, "But, Uncle Ji is also your friend for decades. How can you turn your back on him because of a stranger like Lu Zhen?
I heard that Kunyu bandits will procure weapons from Lu Zhen. It means they will be used against us in the end. His loyalty to the throne is questionable.
How can you side with him because of a beast emperor and that too, some 1-circle kitten?
On the other hand, Uncle Ji isn't just your friend, but he is also your vassal for Western Yan. If you can't side with him, can't you atleast be neutral?"
"You don't understand. It isn't that simple." Shang Fu shook his head with a sigh. "Today, I have realized that it's best to not offend him."
"C'mon, father. It's not like he's some Supreme Being (9-circle)." Shang Jiao snorted in response. "The sects in our Empire even have legendary realm Spirit Warriors.
If you sent a request to the sect leaders, Lu Zhen and his store will disappear in a blink of an eye."
The Emperor stared at her in silence. He appeared to be in deep thoughts.
In the end, he replied, "fine, let's do this way. Pass a message to Ji Cheng that I'm going to invite Lu Zhen to the lunch, tomorrow. If the issue can't be solved, I'll do as you say and drag Lu Zhen to the trial."
"Really?" The fifth princess' eyes lit up right away as she got a chance for the Ji Clan. "Thank you, father. I knew that you will not disappoint me."
She scurried off from the room, right away.
Shang Fu shook his head with a smile, "silly child. I can already see the Ji Clan backing off, tomorrow."
