Weapon seller in the world of magic
chapter-218-4

Upon receiving the message, Allen dropped his battle and started running away.

"Don't let him escape." Ren Zhelan shouted and chased after him without knowing that he was going to fall into a trap.

Meanwhile, Mark opened his skill list and was ready to launch the skill. Soon, he saw the Allen in a hood and mask. Allen landed before him and just a couple of seconds later, a fatty fellow and a buffed guy appeared in his view. Their faces weren't clearly visible due to the darkness. Only due to the flames around, Mark and his opponents could see each other.

A frown appeared on Ren Zhelan when he saw Mark. He mumbled, "This guy also didn't have ether energy. How could these guys conceal even from my senses? By the way, what is that weapon on his shoulder?" Ren Zhelan stared at the Rocket launcher, which looked different from the grenade launcher that he had earlier seen in Allen's hands before their battle.

Ren Zhelan then spotted the body of his direct subordinate along with the prison guards. He let out a sigh of relief when he sensed that Long Yazhu was alive.

This time, he didn't rush like before because he knew that not anyone would be able to turn his subordinate like this in such a short span of time. He was sure that this new guy is atleast in the same realm as him. Fortunately, he couldn't sense the presence of any semi-divine weapon in Mark's hands. So, he wasn't afraid.

"Who are you?" He asked Mark who had his hand raised above his head, stretched towards the sky.

"Thunderblast, activate." In response to his question, Mark unleashed his strongest skill.

A powerful thunder was heard in the sky where dark clouds gathered. Before the sound reached the ears of everyone, a blue bolt of lightning struck the fatty, turning him into ash in a split second. Even his platinum-grade weapon and his storage ring along with the things inside it weren't left behind.

Sun Xia just stared at the ash in a daze. "Lord Ren died just like that?" In an instant, he realized that he wasn't a match for the two men before him. What loyalty, what pride, and what resilience? Everything is nothing before life for people like Sun Xia. To even take revenge, he had to stay alive first.

As for getting persecuted by the kingdom for neglecting his duties, he wasn't worried about that. Will a king punish a peak stage 6-circle realm expert like him? No kingdom or sect would dare to do that.

That's why he put away his pride right away and kneeled on the spot, "Show mercy, Lord. If you have a problem with the kingdom of Western Moon, I will even sever my ties with this land and leave for someplace, never to be seen again."

He was lucky that Mark doesn't have any intention to kill him. Looking straight at him, he said, "I'm here to free one prisoner. I'll take him with me and those who stand in my way will die. If you want to live, make way for us."

"With the demise of Lord Ren, I possess the highest authority." Sun Xia sighed in relief and got up on his feet. He made a fist and placed it on his chest, "Your wish will be fulfilled. All I request is that there won't be any more casualties."

Seeing how the warden died, Sun Xia guessed that this young man was probably a legendary realm expert. If he truly is one, then, even if all the guards fought against him, everyone would just die.

And with the death of Ren Zhelan along with Long Yuzha's unconscious state, the security strength of the prison had reduced by two-thirds.

In such a state, even if Mark turned out to be in the high/peak stage of the 7-circle realm, it will be nothing but a massacre. Maybe, if those experts stationed in warships will join, then, there might be a chance but he doesn't want to take such a gamble when this can solve by releasing one prisoner.

The only thing that is puzzling him is the identity of the prisoner that is related to this crazy devil?

The kingdom of Western Moon was also careful in imprisoning the criminals in this prison. Well, atleast during the past few decades. Due to spending hefty funds on salaries for 7-circle realm experts, they had to tone down the level of security along with the inmates too.

They stopped putting risky prisoners here like someone who is an elite member or an elder of a powerful sect, or a close relative of Exalt realm or higher realm Spirit warrior.

Criminals with powerful backgrounds were killed in secret instead.

The current inmates of Qincheng prison might have decent backgrounds but none of those backings have the guts to challenge Western Moon Kingdom's strength and the authority of powerful empires like the Leon Empire and Phoenix Empire.

That is why Mark's appearance is a shocking incident for Sun Xia who was enjoying his free income without doing any work.

In the end, he personally escorted Mark and Allen while ignoring the corpses around.

Mark didn't expect that his mission would get easier. Instead of just killing one after another, Sun Xia's assistance will reduce his work.

Of course, he was ready to unleash 'Absolute Freezing' in case of an unlikely ambush. After all, it's foolishness to trust a stranger.

On the way, they met several prison guards but all of them were sent away to the entrance and were ordered to guard it. After informing them that everything had been settled, Sun Xia strictly told them to not let anyone into the prison, especially the guards from the outposts. Because of his authority in the prison, no one dared to question him, and followed the orders.

Mark was satisfied with his method that not only saved the lives of the prison guards but also stopped the unnecessary interference from other guards.

It didn't take long for them to cross one of the inner gates of the prison. From there, it is a circular structure. One after another, they visited each cell. Mark continuously used his Sage eyes to inspect their details from the outside.

Sun Xia didn't understand why Mark wasn't just speaking out his name so that finding that inmate would become easier but the latter was careful about the matter.

After searching for more than 320 cells, spending more than two hours, Mark finally stumbled upon the old man who had a long beard and disheveled hair, lying motionless in the corner of the cell despite the earlier commotion.

Description: The former king of the Western Moon kingdom. After being defeated by his twin brother in a coup led by a Supreme General, he was sent to Qincheng Prison in secret.

Note: The person has the Doom Seal placed by the Church of Doom, resulting in the loss of ether particles.

"Doom Seal?" Mark wondered what it is. And there's Church of Doom too, which he had never heard before. He could ask the system but since there's a guy here who is following his orders, Mark said to the 6-circle realm expert.

"Mr. Sun, tell me about Church of Doom."
