Weapon seller in the world of magic

Unlike Allen, as Mark didn't move from the spot while targeting different locations, the guards that came out of the northwestern gate had spotted him.

There were about 12 of them, of which four were in the 5-circle realm and the rest were in the 4-circle realm.

All of them drew out their weapons as soon as they spotted a stranger with a hood and mask.

If it was some other place like the royal palace, they would first ask about his identity as well as his motive, followed by a warning to stop and surrender. If an intruder doesn't accept the surrender, they would try to capture him and give the death sentence as the last resort.

However, the Qincheng prison is different. The guards directly went for the kill after seeing Mark without considering any circumstances or consequences.

Unfortunately for them, it's the person who doesn't have any care for the lives of the strangers. As Mark knew that he was in the 30-meter range, he didn't fire the warhead at the enemies that appeared. Instead, he unleashed the lightning clone skill and ordered it to kill them.

Before they even get an opportunity to attack Mark, his mighty clone raised its arm and charged forward, striking their chests one after another.

For a moment, Mark's vision went blurry because of his connection with the clone. It was like his eyes couldn't follow the movements of his body. It was too fast for him.

One strike, one kill. Within five seconds, dozen corpses fell on the ground. With a thought, he dismissed the clone after wasting two seconds (2% of his ether energy).

As a result, he lost 7% of his ether energy (4650 ether points) but he was satisfied with the result because this was his strength, neither his Androids nor his weapons.

"Okay, the small fish are dead. Now, let's wait for the big fish." Mark loaded a warhead in the rocket launcher but didn't shoot it. He calmly stared at the prison's entrance.

Roughly half a minute later, one of his three targets appeared. Long Yazhu glanced around his surroundings. His facial expression turned serious upon spotting the corpses of his subordinates. Then, there was a huge fire, burning in the woods. Finally, his eyes fell on Mark with a rocket launcher on his shoulder.

"Bastard…"

Like his subordinates, he too didn't waste the time chatting with the enemy and directly sprung into action.

"Lightning Clone, activate"

Mark also resummoned his lightning clone, which readily blocked his attack and countered with a kick to his chin.

As Long Yazhu flew by the kick, Mark ordered his clone, "Don't kill him. Just knock him out."

The lightning clone leaped towards its opponent and planted another kick, this time in the abdomen as Yazhu was still in the air.

Long Yazhu crashed onto the wall and fell to the ground. The sturdy wall cracked but managed to stand.

"Damn it. This enemy is stronger than me." Long Yazhu wiped the blood from his lips as he slowly stood on the ground. Instead of attacking with all of his strength, he took out some talisman and ignited it with his ether energy.

Unfortunately for him, the lightning clone was too fast. Before he even managed to send a message to the warden, the clone reached him and gave a solid kick to his thigh.

"Argh…"

Long Yazhu screamed in pain but the lightning clone didn't stop its attacks. It gave consecutive punches, smashing his bones all over his body. Long Yazhu lost consciousness.

"Dismiss…"

Mark slowly walked toward his body after checking his status. Upon reaching him, he observed him for a few seconds and nodded in satisfaction, "okay, one is down. I wonder what happened to the other."

He connected to Allen and enquired about the other 6-circle realm expert through the system.

Meanwhile, at the south-eastern entrance gate

A fatty was engaged in a sword battle with Allen. A spear user was supporting the fatty. Allen looked like he wasn't gaining any advantage.

"Ha" "Oraaaa" Both of them were trying their best to kill him but Allen calmly parried their attacks while looking for a way to break through their defense without killing them, of course.

As he is in the middle of a battle, the system sent a message to him.

Allen didn't waste any time backing off a bit and sending back the reply.

*Ding! Allen replies that he is in the middle of a battle with the spirit warrior named Sun Xia and the Warden of the prison, Ren Zhelan.

"A two-front battle?" Mark furrowed his brows by the reply sent by Allen. He didn't expect Allen would face two of them at the same time. According to his strategy, the three of them should separate and go to each entrance gate to check upon the attackers as he and Allen were making explosions from all the sides of the prison.

Was he wrong in his approach? He couldn't help but wonder.

In fact, he was right. They were separated for sure but Mark had made the mistake of letting Allen climb the outer wall. Because of that, he was spotted by the Warden and he changed his direction upon witnessing the divine sword on Allen and got consumed by greed.

He doesn't know that it was a divine grade sword but he knows for sure that it was more powerful than his platinum grade sword. As the semi-divine weapons were bound to the owner, he decided to kill Allen at all costs, thinking it as compensation for causing chaos around his prison and disturbing his sleep.

And once they clashed their weapons, Ren Zhelan realized that the other party was equally strong and can heal himself through the light attribute. As a result, He couldn't even injure him, much less kill him. So, he took the help of Sun Xia.

If not for the fact that the explosions continued even after his clash with Allen, Ren Zhelan would have even brought Long Yazhu to assist him.

But anyway, two on one is also good, considering they are managing to push back the Android to a disadvantage.

Unfortunately for him, his subordinate was already defeated and Mark is free to move. At the same time, Allen wasn't using his offensive skills because his master ordered him not to kill them. That means he was only allowed to use them on weaklings who will cross the woods and come towards the prison.

Why did Mark give such a strange order when he mercilessly killed a dozen prison guards earlier?

It's because of their usefulness.

Unlike four-circle and below realm warriors, Five-circle and Six-circle realm experts were important to any organization or kingdom. As they weren't high-level warriors like Exalt realm experts, they usually have less arrogance and would stay bound to duty under normal circumstances.

As a result, they are important to the kingdom. Since he was going to save the king, he will naturally become an ally of Western Moon. So, he shouldn't harm the kingdom by killing them unnecessarily when he had a choice of sparing their lives.

As for why Mark had cleaned up those five-circle realm experts too, it is because he doesn't think too much of them. For him, anyone below 6-circle isn't worth thinking about. Maybe, his decision will change once he gets his hands on more powerful weapons but for now, he decided not to kill 6-circle experts who could be useful to him in the future.

And now that he felt like it is difficult for Allen to hold back any longer, Mark ordered the Android to lead his opponents to him.
