Weapon seller in the world of magic

Qincheng Prison, one of the world's toughest prisons, where notorious human criminals and other intelligent races were imprisoned. It is reputed to have a 0% escape rate over the past five decades.

The prison was located on the island of Qincheng, which is only about 6 sq. km of are. All it contained was a prison and outposts in every direction.

The prisoners here were completely cut off from the world. There are no visitations or releases. And they are known to have only two fates, either dying by trying to escape or turning into a bag of bones in the cell.

Because the inmates have a lot of reputation in the outside world, there would be always some fanatic followers trying to break into the prison to save their leader. This is why there are more guards around the prison than the number of prisoners.

Due to the sheer amount of work put into security, Western Moon was always funded by the other empires whose criminals were facing life imprisonment. In a way, the kingdom holds a bit of leverage over these larger empires, although the king would never exercise that leverage because he couldn't afford to face the anger of the Emperors.

But, the current king, Shen Qiu is different. Because of the border disputes with the Phoenix Empire, he is constantly challenging the patience of Emperor Shang every time his Prime Minister visits the Imperial City.

Of course, he never intended to release the prisoners or anything but wanted more funds in maintaining security. Shen Qiu wants others to pay money for the prison and its maintenance while he pockets the money that was supposed to be allotted to it.

Several five-circle and six-circle realm experts were guarding the island at the outposts and warships that patrol around the place to make sure no one gets near it.

These people were paid in full but because of that, the prison guards with low cultivation levels weren't getting their wages properly. As a result, they take their work lightly. With how the inmates had several powerful seals on their bodies, followed by getting inadequate food, all of them are weaker than a normal person. So, there's nothing to worry about.

And in the middle of the night, when several soldiers appeared to be tired and the patrolling of warships was almost reduced to just one ship, Mark and Allen appeared on the island, behind some huge tree.

Looking around his surroundings, he found that he was teleported right before the entrance, evading all the possible security on the island. Behind him, there were woods, spanning over an acre or two. Maybe, some soldiers are hiding in the woods. Who knows…

The walls were about 50 ft in height but the entrance gate was only 6ft big and 6 ft wide. There was a security guard on either side but to Mark's luckiness, they were currently sleeping.

Looking at them, Mark mumbled, "Man, I'm really missing Alina in times like these…"

"Big Brother, I can do better than her," Allen called him out in response. Because it is dark, Mark couldn't see what kind of face the Android is making but just from Allen's words alone, he felt like the male Android is getting competitive against his female counterpart.

It's something new but was it good or bad? Only time will tell.

Mark realized that it is probably the right time to test the power of the divine sword of Emperor Shun. He opened the inventory and clicked on the sword. Details appeared on a holographic screen.

"What the…" Mark had hit his back to the trunk of the tree in shock, letting the leaves rustle. Thankfully, it didn't alert the guards who were in deep sleep.

It's been a while since he had acquired this divine sword but considering he was never going to equip it, Mark never inspected its details, worrying that he will regret it. All he knows from the system is that the sword can increase Allen's rank by 1.

Mark thought that Allen will have the power of the 7-circle realm when the Android will get an upgrade. It is also why he had never equipped him with the sword, feeling that it is useless now.

However, Mark had earlier gained the unique skill of the lightning clone. Combined with Thunderblast, he was confident that he wouldn't need the divine sword even in dreams. Not to mention, weapons like swords aren't for a lazy guy like him. He wouldn't like to move too much on normal occasions.

Now that he finally saw the details, the reality became difficult to swallow. But then again, what else can he do? He could only let out a sigh and click on equip.

As soon as he did that, the divine sword left the inventory in the form of a speck of light and entered Allen's body, becoming one with its new owner.

Allen then raised his hand and summoned the exquisite glowing sword. In an instant, energy flowed from the sword into the core of his body. His stats were boosted by 30%, crossing even Alina's stats and reaching 6.7 points.

Soon, the surprise on Mark's face was replaced by a pleasant smile and he immediately takes out a couple of black robes with hoods and blank masks.

"I should really thank Feng Wu for giving an idea." He then gave a blank mask and a black robe to Allen and wore the other.

Once he was fully equipped to hide his face, he looked at the Android, "Let's go, Allen."

The Android understood Mark's intentions and dashed towards the entrance.
