Weapon seller in the world of magic

"Zheng is a five-tailed leopard monster native to a place called the undying lands. The female species is called Ning.

Roughly about 50 years ago, Lan Gengxin along with his acquaintances, who were originally expelled from the Ancient Lan Sect, came to the Western Yan and settled down at the Kunyu mountain range where a branch of the Lan Sect is already located.

All of a sudden, the Lan Sect's strength grew leaps and bounds, forcing the Emperors, kings, and other organizations to have a good relationship with them. That is completely another matter to discuss. So, I will come to the main subject.

Anyway, these new members who took over the Lan Sect didn't come with empty hands. They brought a Zheng cub with them. It is a Beast Emperor. It's highly possible that they have stolen or they might not. It doesn't matter. What matters is that it is still alive and is currently guarding its master's grave.

Nearly 30 years ago, when Lan Sect was destroyed because of a 9-star dungeon break, the 22-year-old Zheng was at a 5-circle. And over time, its strength increased to 9-circle. Our Church of Doom is attempting to subdue it for a long time but even our Supreme Pontiff isn't strong enough.

Now, coming to the prophecy, while I couldn't see your exact face because it is all blurry but I see a young man who was mounted on top of a large leopard with five tails and has some sort of cat on his shoulders. All over him, I felt the aura of a Pegasus that suppresses even beast emperors.

And this man will bring the glory to our Church along with the Western Moon kingdom.

Now that I confirmed your bloodline, I feel like everything is pointed to you. I'm willing to take a chance. After all, we don't have much time.

​ <strong>*Ding! You triggered a hidden quest.</strong>

Quest: Inheritance of Lan Gengxin

Description: As a direct descendant who inherited the Blizzard Pegasus, it is your right to inherit his unclaimed inheritance. Capture the pet that he left behind.

Reward: Missile Defense System (upgradable)

Accept?

"Man, another hidden quest? They are popping one after another." Mark would usually be happy if there's such a tempting reward but the difficulty of the quest made him doubt whether he can complete this quest.

First of all, the target was a beast emperor. And second, it was in 9-circle. That means it is the same as battling a demi-god.

The beast would probably leave him alive upon learning that he is the grandson of Lan Gengxin but submitting itself to him, Mark doesn't have confidence. If that's the case, why should he take the risk?

But at the same time, Mark also knew that this quest doesn't have any time limit.

So, he decided to accept but without any intentions to complete it until he was strong enough. Even if it fails and someone else manages to capture it or kill it in the future, Mark wouldn't lose anything either way.

<strong>*Ding! You accepted the Quest.</strong>

Once he accepted the quest, he nodded, "Okay, I'll try and see if I can subdue it. Thank you for informing me."

"It's my pleasure," She forced a smile.

It was at that moment Mark found her expression strange. Something else clicked in his mind and he called her out as she was about to remove the barrier, "Wait for a second, Miss Gu…"

As she looked at him, Mark proceeded to ask, "Why do I feel like you are hiding something? After all, even if I subdue the beast emperor, I will gain a powerful pet but what will you gain from this? We are strangers. What makes you think that I will help this kingdom and bring glory to your church and this land? Who knows… I might even use this beast against your organization."

Mark was logical in his statement and Gu Ya also knew that it was possible but she appeared to be helpless in this situation. She let out a sigh in response and revealed the truth, "I don't have any choice but to take a leap of faith.

Some of the elders of our church are conspiring with the queen to resurrect her ancestor who is our founder using an ancient sacrificing ritual within a year. Even the Supreme Pontiff is involved, once the news of King Shen Niu's return is out, they might speed up the process.

The life of 10 million people is at stake now. If you were able to subdue the beast and reveal your alliance with the Royal Palace of Western Moon, the undertaking might be stopped.

For the sake of innocent citizens, I need your help." She clenched her fists before making a deep bow.

On the other hand, Mark received one more quest from the system. This one appears to be at the same level as accomplishing the earlier quest.

<strong>*Ding! You triggered a mandatory hidden Quest.</strong>

Quest: Stop the Undertaking

Description: The Church of Doom is planning to sacrifice 10 million citizens of the Western Moon kingdom to resurrect the founder of the Church of Doom. Stop the ritual by killing the current Supreme Pontiff openly.

Time limit: 324 days (can be reduced at any time)

Reward: Battle Android (Rank-7)

Quest Failure: The deaths of millions of innocents, loss of Zheng, chaos in the continent of Vermilion bird, destruction of independent kingdoms, a possible alliance between the Empires, and the host's business might get affected depending on the situation.

Mark doesn't even know to react now. A mandatory quest and there are consequences of Quest failure? He felt like he ran off his mouth unnecessarily.

Obviously, the reward is very tempting but the quest is something that is out of his capabilities. Well, as long as he takes an advancement pill, the thunderblast would be able to kill the Supreme Pontiff who is rumored to be in the 9-circle realm. Using the clone, he could also defeat the elders.

However, the biggest problem here lies in his defense. The Spirit Warriors under 7-circle aren't at risk but the above realm experts have certain skills to even strike him before he makes a move. Moreover, he only has two trump cards. What if this Supreme Pontiff guy would protect himself with skill against his thunderblast and makes a counterattack.

If his attacks failed, neither his attack helicopter nor his Howitzer PHz 2000 would be able to shield him. He can only depend on the manticore, the beast king of the 8-circle realm.

Even if he convinces it to protect him, will it be a match for a Supreme realm expert? Mark doesn't want to take any gambles. That means he was left with two options to complete the quest.

First, the beast Emperor pet of his grandfather, and Second, the peak potion.

The peak potion is entirely up to the chance. And it isn't easy to form a contract with a beast emperor either. That means he needs to depend on the potion to increase his strength and force Zheng beast to admit loyalty to him. And then, he uses the beast to kill the Supreme Pontiff of the Church of Doom.

That means everything now depends on the lottery wheel. Well, what can Mark do? He could only sigh and tells her again that he will see what he can do.

Gu Ya was also clear on what she was asking but she was also helpless here. After all, she doesn't have any solution to the problem except to put her trust in this stranger.
