Weapon seller in the world of magic

"System, explain it."

<strong>*Ding! You can expand the interior of your store or add new chambers as you wished in exchange for gold coins.  </strong>

<strong>*Ding! Note: The exterior of the store and the appearance will not be changed.</strong>

"Okay, that means I don't need to move out to a bigger residence." Mark's eyes lit up in excitement. Along with the suppression, the interior expansion will certainly improve the fame of his store.

Feeling that he had enough gold coins in his inventory, Mark clicked on blueprints.

Several blueprints containing the plans, preview images with different dimensions, and prices appeared before his eyes.

The starting one was the cheapest with 100 gold coins.

It was simple, quite similar to the one he had now with everything being wooden furnished except that instead of the pistols displayed on shelves, the entire left wall had a glass fitting where tiny weapons and rifles can be placed separately.

Mark swiped to see the next one.

He went on to search a few times before finally deciding on the blueprint that cost 25000 gold coins. The money was enough to buy a mansion in the central region of the city where the nobles and wealthy individuals live but Mark didn't hesitate to spend on renovating the store and increasing its interior size.

"Here we go…" He purchased it.

<strong>*Ding! Would you like to replace it, right away?</strong>

<strong>*Warning: All of you will be teleported outside the building. It takes 3 hours.</strong>

Mark changed into new clothes and clicked on proceed. With the system once again online and his helicopter available, Mark no longer feared to go out.

<strong>*Ding! System expansion is about to start in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…</strong>

In the neighborhood, a few laborers are breaking the large stones and removing the smaller ones one by one. It was indeed a slow process, employed by Song Clan's strategy.

All of a sudden, everyone witnessed a black-colored barrier appear over the two-story building.

Followed by that, Mark, Allen, and Alina were teleported outside altogether.

"What is that?" "Wow, that woman is so beautiful." "Who are those handsome warriors?" "Are they twins?" "Shhh, he's the Cerberus Slayer" "The owner of that mysterious flying machine?" "Shh, he's the enemy of Minister Song"

All kinds of murmurings spread around the workers.

Mark stared at the barrier for a few seconds. He felt the energy he was sensing in it is extremely similar to that of Alina's energy daggers.

"System, is that the so-called Protos Barrier?" He mumbled to himself.

<strong>*Ding! Yes. This is the final line of defense, which can block the attack of even a Demi-God realm beast or human. However, it comes with a heavy cost when it is used on the host to absorb the attack.</strong>

"That's great." Mark let out a wide smile in realization.

This statement from the system gave a strong hint to Mark that even without a helicopter, tank, or the Android assistants, his life can be saved atleast once. That is enough to remove the fear from him.

"Allen, Alina, let's go for a walk," Mark said to them as they stared at him.

Soon, they left the street and walked for another few kilometers, reaching the Guild District.

On the way, he felt the gazes from every passerby. Some looked at him curiously while some look at him in fear. Whether people remember how he looked or not, the quality of their appearances is enough for every onlooker to identify them, especially Alina's. Meanwhile, there were a lot of spies who followed them in secret.

Mark's performance at the Arena indeed attracted the attention of several wealthy individuals and the neutral major noble clans. Of course, there's also the fourth prince from the Imperial family.

His pace was neither fast nor slow and his head keep turning left and right as if he came to the guild district for a tour.

Eventually, the group of three stopped before a giant building that stretched over two hundred meters wide and stands atleast fifty meters tall, having seven floors. He raised his head and nodded as he read the name, "Swordmasters."

They walked through the entrance and stepped inside to find themselves inside a massive hall and a lot of crowds gathered at different places. There were several reception desks at various spots.

Here, everyone is too busy that they didn't notice them until Mark patted a passerby who is walking towards them with their adventurer team, "excuse me."

The man looked at Mark and the other two. Naturally, he was surprised at their visuals at first but then asked, "Yes?"

Mark asked, "Do you know someone named Mo Jiang here?

"Mo Jiang?" The other adventurers who passed by Mark suddenly stopped and turned around.

One of them reacted to it, "who are you?"

"Wow, look at that beauty." Another man whispered to his teammate as the three of them turned around.

The leader who asked the question was also attracted to Alina for a second before turning back his attention to Mark, when the latter questioned, "Do you know Mo Jiang?"

"Yes, he can be considered an acquaintance." The Leader of the group informed him before asking a question in return, "but, who are you? Why do you want to meet him?"

"That is of no business to you," Mark replied in an annoyed tone. He came here for a purpose and didn't want to waste his time explaining to every Tom, Dick, and Harry. Maybe, defeating several top experts also increased his arrogance, "If you know where he is, then, tell me. Otherwise, you can be on your way. I'll ask others."

A frown appeared on the leader. He couldn't sense even a tiny bit of ether from three of them but something tells him the girl in Hanfu wear is someone who is far stronger than him.

He said, "Brother Mo is no longer in the guild. He left a while ago."

It was Mark's turn to frown, feeling that his time indeed wasted. But, then, something clicked in his mind, "You said you are acquaintances. Where is he?"

"As you said, it's not my business. I'll be on my way, then." The Leader named Chen Shi turned around to walk away, "follow me."

"Stop," Mark spoke in a bit of a loud tone. For some reason, he sensed that this guy knows where that rat is hiding. Seeing how he addressed Mo Jiang as Brother Mo, Mark was a little bit confident.

A few adventurers and clients around looked at the source of the voice. Meanwhile, the leader stopped and turned his head, "what is it?"

"I'll ask you again. Where is Mo Jiang? I need to meet him." Mark asked him again. This time, his gaze was cold as if he wanted to intimidate this adventurer.

"I'm afraid I can't tell you without knowing your intentions." Chen Shi felt like this guy is probably here to settle the scores. So, he doesn't want to reveal Mo Jiang's location. "Now, if you excuse me, we have a mission to finish."

As someone who is in 6-circle realm status, he had his own pride and definitely didn't like how Mark was speaking to him as if that person is of above status. Even if he's a prince, Chen Shi wouldn't care.

It was at that moment, some nearby adventurer rushed towards Mark, "Lord Lu, I will take you to him."

It was a boy in his teenage with messy hair and crappy armor.

"Lord Lu?" Chen Shi frowned but then, he put it aside and barked at the boy, "Chang Bo, what are you doing here?"
