Weapon seller in the world of magic

Sun Xia was a little bit surprised by the question as it is common knowledge to the citizens of Western Moon Kingdom. Nevertheless, he answered, "Church of Doom is the most powerful organization of our kingdom. Even though it is called a church, it is more like a cult, worshipping the evil Taotie and wearing taotie masks too.

No one knows their origins but they came to the shores of Western Moon about three centuries ago. Back then, the Church of Light opposed their existence and termed them evil because of their practices but the Church of Doom was too strong with its leader said to be in the Supreme Realm.

They wiped out half of our army, hunted down the members of the Church of Light to the last man, and massacred more than 2 million citizens.

It forced Supreme Beings to take action and get to an agreement. In exchange for the Church of Doom being given a place in the Kingdom of Western Moon and recruiting the citizens, the organization will not influence the king and interfere in the internal matters of the kingdom. Of course, this treaty also forced the Church of Light to leave the kingdom permanently.

While the leaders of the Church of Doom kept their word for decades, the Kings couldn't help but be restless. After all, it is like hosting a tiger in your house. You can't sleep even if it is a harmless one.

So, about two centuries ago, King Shen Yang had made another deal with them. The Royal family will pay tributes to them in the form of funds, and in exchange, they will not only have to help out with the seals but also come to their aid in case an Empire or any sect invades their land.

Maybe, they have a grand plan, or maybe, they simply don't. Whatever the case, until now, Church of Doom is staying true to the agreements even after two centuries."

It was a shocking piece of information to Mark. He didn't expect that there's a powerful organization with a Supreme Being as its head. He felt like he really underestimated this tiny independent kingdom. Mark thought that the kingdom is depending on the treaty between Western Moon and the two empires.

Staring at the real king, Mark mumbled, "No wonder Shen Qiu is bold enough to challenge the Imperial Palace."

"Sorry?" Sun Xia's ears perked up when he heard a familiar name. It looks like he indeed has a great sense of hearing.

Mark didn't speak it again and said, "Open it."

Sun Xia finally placed his attention on the inmate. He doesn't have any idea who it is though.

After securing the unconscious king, Mark and Allen left the prison. They reached the compound. Instead of going outside, Mark had directly summoned the attack helicopter. He and the unconscious king sat in the back while Allen closed the doors and started flying.

As the attack helicopter flew into the air while pushing away everyone nearby with the wind generated by the rotor blades, Sun Xia stared at it and mumbled, "What kind of puppet is this?"

Once the helicopter is out of his sight, he remembered something important, "That's right. Brother Yazhu was still alive back then." He rushed towards the northwestern gate.

Meanwhile, in the helicopter, Mark was getting an urge to vomit due to the bad smell coming from this rugged old man who looked more like a beggar than a king. Being in a tighter space, the smell only became worse. As a result, he was forced to use ether energy to block his sense of smell while looking outside.

It was night. So, not much was visible, well, atleast for the next half an hour. Then, he found thousands of tiny lights spread all over the land. It was the capital city of Western Moon. As the island of Qincheng was too far from the mainland, no citizen of any city or town was alarmed at the moment, although the same can't be said for the royal family and the ministers.

As the King had summoned the high-level officials at early morning five and is discussing the attack of mysterious people on Qincheng prison, resulting in the deaths of 8 four-circle realm warriors, 4 five-circle realm warriors, and 1 seven-circle realm Spirit Warrior, the appearance of an attack helicopter alerted the soldiers stationed in the city of Zhishang.

After landing at a deserted place within the city, Mark dismissed the attack helicopter and summoned his LMV (light multirole vehicle), throwing away the king in the back seat while he drove it.

Mark traveled in random directions for a while to look for a citizen. Fortunately for him, a few soldiers were already looking for him. He encountered a unit of about 8 members.

He stopped driving and simply showed them his invitation letter, making them understand that he was a guest of the king.

The captain read the letter and wondered whether this man with a mysterious vehicle was late or whether he came six days earlier. Whatever the case, the letter had a royal seal along with the king's name, which itself states that he can't mess with the person.

As a result, he didn't question him much and politely asked whether he could provide any assistance.

Mark replied, "Do you know where I can find an inn? The rental price isn't important but I need a peaceful atmosphere."

"There's an inn named Bao Bao. I think it will suit your needs, Lord Lu." The captain informed him right away as the inn is quite famous among tourists.

Upon reaching there, Mark also requested servants to clean up the old man who looked like a beggar. The owner was quite cooperative. Even though it is rather early in the morning, he followed Mark's request.

Strangely, the old man didn't wake up even after being cleaned up and was dressed in new clothes by the hired servants. Was he in a coma? Mark suspected at first but as there's no status attached to his details. Naturally, he asked the system for answers.

And in response, he received a couple of notifications.

*Ding! The Seal of Doom that was used on King Shen Nui is more powerful than a normal one. As a result, his consciousness was also sealed along with his ether energy.

*Ding! You triggered a hidden quest, "Break the Seal of Doom"

Quest: Break the Seal of Doom

Description: A Legendary realm (8-circle) expert had unleashed a unique seal known as the Seal of Doom onto King Shen Nui before he was locked away at Qincheng Prison. Break the seal and save the victim.

Reward: Unique skill – Seal Breaker

"Seal breaker? System, shed some light…"

*Ding! Seal Breaker skill would let the host remove any type of seal as long as it is under Ancient grade.

(Seal grades: Common < Elite < Knight < General < King < Emperor < Ancient < Saint < God)

"Oh, that's awesome." Mark was now excited. Free rewards are always welcomed. But then, something clicked in his mind. How should he break the seal in the first place? He enquired with the system once again.

*Ding! Solution 1: Use 1 billion EP (ether points) worth of ether energy to break the seal by force.

*Ding! Solution 2: Buy a platinum-grade purification stone from the store and nullify the effects of the seal.

*Ding! Solution 3: Exchange Attack Helicopter EC665 with the system to temporarily get access to Protos energy reserves of the system and remove the seal.

Mark's expression changed suddenly and he couldn't help but let out a sigh, "Does the system hold a grudge on me or something? None of those solutions are fucking viable."
