Weapon seller in the world of magic-Chapter 515: The Third eye
*Ding! The host has to manually unlock the rocket. It costs 10 million credits to unlock and the price of a rocket depends on its size.
"You…"
Mark wanted to swear at the system even if he had to risk taking an electric shock, but fortunately for him, the system followed up with another notification, making him swallow down those curses.
*Ding! With a peak force of 9x10^25 N, the cannon launcher has enough force to launch objects directly to even this planet's moon, resisting every kind of force that has an opposite effect, as long as they can fit inside the cannon and are durable enough to withstand it.
"Oh, I see," Mark had faced enough shocks in the past few months that he was no longer stunned by the system's created items that defy the logic of science he learned while growing up.
"Anyway, system, launch the space station"
*Ding! Affirmed.
The block of the cube disappeared from his inventory and was transported to the launcher.
A green-colored light in the form of a line appeared at the bottom of the launcher before another one appeared a couple of meters above it.
Third one, and then, the fourth one, and so on, until the tenth one at the center of the launcher.
*Ding! The cannon launcher is charged up. The required force to the desired orbit is achieved. Get ready for the launch.
*10
*9
*8
*7
*6
*5
*4
*3
*2
*1
*Swooosh*
The giant block of cube was fired vertically from the launcher without any sort of sound. Mark got a glimpse at it when the object was released but it instantly disappeared from his sight.
Mark sent the so-called portable rocket launching station to his inventory and returned to Lunaris City by walking into the portal.
After randomly appearing in a remote location that just looked like a wilderness, Mark summoned his LNovelFire and started driving back to the palace.
Not even five minutes passed since he started driving and Mark received a notification from the system.
*Ding! Space Station-V successfully reached its orbit (400 km altitude) and activated.
*Ding! Space station panel is added to the character menu. Check it for the details.
Mark was forced to hit the brakes and stop the vehicle, "Already?" He couldn't help but ask the system to confirm it again.
It responded in a way that made it seem like it was mocking Mark's intelligence.
*Ding! System clearly mentioned that objects launched by the cannon launcher with enough force that all kinds of resisting forces will have negligible impact on them.
After a few moments of silence, Mark let out a sigh and passed the order, "System, open Space station panel."
"Activate the skill, Third Eye"
*Ding! Need the name and other details, the better the details, the less time is taken.
Mark closed his eyes and imagined the appearance of his eldest half-sibling in his mind before mumbling, "Name: Shang Zexi, age 38 or 39. Location Priority: Phoenix Empire."
*Ding! The Third Eye activated. Wait for the details.
As 25% of his ether energy reduced instantly, in space at 400km altitude, the large space station that just unfolded into its real form and started revolving around the planet in its desired orbit glowed brightly for a few seconds and momentarily increased its scanning ability to the entire planet instead of just the partial area it was designed to scan.
Back to Mark, after activating the ability, he waited in patience, thinking that the job would be done within a few minutes unless the former crown prince was hiding deep in the underground caves of some mountains.
The system's creation didn't let him down and gave him the GPS location of the target within 15 seconds.
It showed him the location of Northern Yuan Province's Silla, a town located near the border with Zhao Province.
"Shang Zexi was found. Now, all that's left is to force him to start a rebellion. But, hurting Shang Jun isn't enough to do that. I would have to take action by myself.
However, if I go in person, there is a significant chance of getting rejected. A guy like him might even twist the facts and blame me for his current situation. Well, I might have played a part but he is still responsible for his own demise.
Anyway, let's send someone he doesn't know but strong enough to give him that courage. It is time for that nonexistent mysterious backer of mine to come into the limelight." Mark let out an evil grin, imagining the scenario of the future of the Phoenix Empire.
Meanwhile, at the Phoenix Empire;
Shang Jun was lying on his bed with a dazed expression on his face with his left arm being treated by the imperial healer.
Various officials were seen standing on the side and watching him, including His principal advisor, Cao Wen; Prime Minister, Shang Wei; The Supreme Commander, Bai Xun.
After the treatment was completed and the imperial healer left, Cao Wen spoke, "Your Majesty, the regrowth pill is already on the way. Within a couple of weeks, your left hand will return to normal without any side effects."
Shang Jun didn't respond to his words filled with assurance. He continued to stare at the ceiling in a daze.
Shang Wei and Bai Xun glanced at each other. The latter slightly shook his head, gesturing for him not to speak anything and stay silent on the spot.
"Your Majesty" "Your Majesty…"
After calling him a couple of times, Cao Wen walked to the bed and touched his shoulders, "Your Majesty…"
Shang Jun finally responded by moving his eyes to the side to spare a glance at his advisor.
Cao Wen softly spoke, "Fourth Prince's organization (NET) was working with everything they have got. His Highness promised that we will find the assailant's identity within a week."
"The true heir to the throne says hello. This is what he said, Advisor Cao," Shang Jun slowly opened his mouth, "Do you know what that means?"
"Crown Prince Shang Zexi?" Cao Wen yelped in surprise. Shang Wei and Bai Xun also seemed taken aback.
"Are you implying that Eldest Brother is the one behind this incident?" Shang Wei couldn't help but ask, "But, the assailant seemed like a supreme realm expert."
He had no love for the brother who tried to harm him multiple times, but that doesn't mean he would sit quietly if Shang Jun just blatantly pins it on the one who went into hiding in fear.
However, to their surprise, Shang Jun bitterly smiled as he slowly shook his head, "There is someone else. The one who attacked me is no doubt a direct descendant of the Shang Dynasty. You should have also sensed it, Prince Wei. There's a Phoenix Bloodline inside him and it was very pure, but not pure to the extent that he or his immediate ancestors received a blessing from the Phoenix.
If I'm right, a line from the previous emperors must have existed without us knowing. If we want to find out his identity, we should start from there." He shifted his attention back to Cao Wen, "Advisor Cao, I need you to send a message to our brothers. Tell them to come here."
"Our Brothers?" Shang Wei and Bai Xun spared a glance at each other once again. They shared the same thought.
