Mark wasn't sure whether this ether pistol will work in the market considering its high price, but then again, he doesn't plan to release it right away. So, it isn't something that he needed to worry about, right now.

Putting aside his thoughts, he created one ether pistol and went to look at the details of C-4.

Composition-4 (Basic)

Grade: N/A

Description: An explosive device that is capable of killing any Spirit warrior of 4-circle and lower realm.

Blast radius: 25 meters

How to use: Set the timer beforehand and place C-4 on the destination. Once the detonate button was pressed, it will be blown up after the countdown hits zero.

Note: Once the timer is set, the explosion cannot be stopped.

Price: 150 gold coins

**

"150 gold coins are cheap if one considers its effect except that not having control is a bit risky. Let's see this advanced version…"

Composition-4 (Advanced)

Grade: N/A

Description: An explosive device that is capable of killing any Spirit warrior of 5-circle and lower realm.

Blast radius: 60 meters

How to use: A remote will come as a set with the device. Set the timer beforehand and place C-4 on the destination. Once the detonate button was pressed, it will be blown up after the countdown hits zero.

Note: The timer can be stopped, reduced, and increased by the remote control. However, the user must be within 100 meters radius of the explosive device to control the remote.

Price: 700 gold coins

"Damn, that's too expensive…" Mark gasped in shock but when his eyes fell on key details, he felt like it is worth the amount. Even though the warhead shot by the rocket launcher and the 40mm grenade launched by the grenade launcher achieve similar results, the application of C-4 is different from them. Combined with Alina's invisibility, this explosive device had the potential to become a very lethal weapon.

Ahead of the upcoming war, he could help the Kunyu bandits by letting Alina plant secretly these devices in the capital city of Western Yan.

"System, Open new quests"

Side Quest I: Earn a total of 1 million gold coins from selling the weapons created by the system (excluding ammunition)

Reward: Ether Sniping rifle (silver grade), Ether Assault rifle (silver grade)

*

Side Quest II: Expand the business by opening a second branch in a different city and appointing a manager.

Reward: Store guardian

**

"Oh, a store guardian?" Mark immediately enquired with the system and learned that the store branches don't enjoy the privilege of Ultimate defense skill that protects the main branch from attacks. So, a guardian robot will be placed at the store.

It will protect the branch manager when he is inside the store and the building from threats. However, it will neither listen to the orders of the branch manager nor will it ever involve in the matters that are out of its job.

For example, if the branch manager is being murdered outside the store and if that person asks for its help, it won't budge from its spot. Even Mark cannot force it to do anything as he does with the butler robot or the Androids.

As it didn't bring him a great advantage, he didn't think too much about it and closed down the window.

He then proceeded to create a bunch of Panzers and Ak-47s along with 7.62mm ammunition. As it has a bulk option, it only took him four clicks to create 1000 of them. Of course, he didn't forget to wear the glove of creation to increase the success rate by 25%, which increased the 80% success rate for 7.62 mm round to 100%.

While he created the second prince's order within a few minutes, Mark planned to give him the panzers, a couple of weeks later, or more like once the war is over in Western Yan.

After he was done with the creation, he went to the training ground and found that the brother and sister appeared to be in a rather serious battle in contrast with a friendly spar, well atleast from Shang Jiao's side.

Mark saw the princess was bleeding quite a lot but she was resilient in her attacks as if her life depended on it. On the other hand, the second prince barely has any scratches on his arm. Thankfully, neither of them is using their personal semi-divine weapons, or else, the destruction in the surroundings would have been severe.

*Thud*

For the nth time, Shang Jiao crashed onto the ground. With the blazing phoenix wings spread apart, Shang Wen looked down at his sister and said, "Give up, Xiao Jiao. You cannot defeat me in your present state. An Ice is destined to melt when faced with fire. Instead of stubbornly depending on your attribute, focus on developing ether techniques."

Shang Jiao spits out a mouthful of blood as she slowly got on her feet, "No, I don't agree with your statement. There was a reason why the Blizzard Pegasus has never been defeated by the Phoenix."

Shang Wen shook his head, "But, you aren't the Blizzard Pegasus and I'm not the Phoenix. Neither you can acquire the ability of Absolute zero nor can I acquire the ability of resurrection. So, you should stop being stubborn about believing nonsense that you are the representative of Blizzard Pegasus.

Out of us five siblings, you are the most talented child. Father is hoping you to become a Supreme Being in the near future but if you are like this, then, you can never become one, Xiao Jiao."

Shang Jiao didn't agree with his words. She wiped the blood around her lips and stared sharply at her half-brother as she unleashed ice wings, "watch me. I'll prove you wrong."

The fifth princess became dead serious now and finally took out her personal weapon, an exquisite staff adorned with several crystals at its head. She took a great leap to the back and then, raised the staff, "Oh, the goddess of snow and ice, Tengliu, I crave thou to bless me the strength to unleash the serpent of ice and vanquish the enemies from my sight."

The tip of the semi-divine staff glowed for a second before conjuring a giant ice serpent, changing the facial expressions of Mark and Shang Wen. Both of them became serious, although for different reasons.

While Mark wants the training ground to not get damaged, the second prince, on the other hand, realized that his words had fallen deaf on her ears. So, he decided to show the might of his strength. He too summoned his flaming sword.

As he raised the sword above his head, the flames on the sword grew stronger as well as increased in size. He then flapped his wings and flew towards the incoming attack.

As the two opposite forces moved toward each other, Mark felt like he should stop it somehow. He decided to make his move with the new skill he acquired.

"Lightning clone, activate."

A being that looked quite identical to Mark appeared before him. However, there were a few differences. First, sparks were dancing all over this being. Second, this being has blue eyes without any visible pupils. And third, unlike Mark, its aura is visible for everyone to see. It is in seven-circle with all stats equaled to 7.2.

A telepathic link formed between Mark and the clone. It was different from his usual connection with the beasts or the Androids. He felt as if the clone was a part of his body. This was a new feeling for him and he liked it.

Mark motioned his hand. The lightning sparks on the clone thickened for a second and it turned into a flash.

In an instant, it covered 20 meters of distance and obstructed both of them as their attacks were about to collide. Both of them found the clone and thought that it was Mark. The second prince tried to change his direction while Shang Jiao also tried to control the movement of the ice serpent.

However, before the both of them even made their moves, the clone threw punches left and right simultaneously.

"Ugh…" The Prince groaned in pain as the fist landed in his stomach, blasting him away. Meanwhile, the ice serpent was destroyed into thousands of ice particles, leaving a shock on Shang Jiao's face.

Once the battle was halted for a moment, the clone disappeared and a faint voice was heard from a distance, "Okay, that's enough."

The brother and sister looked at the source of the voice to find Mark walking towards them calmly, trying his best to control his anger as he looked around the mini craters.

For a moment, they were confused and glanced at the spot where the clone had disappeared before staring back at him.
