*Ding! You selected Anti-matter Warhead.

*Ding! Please type the yield you desired in grams.

"Hmm, let's go with the base…" Mark wrote 1, which should be equivalent to that of a 21.5 KT yield, enough to take out average demigods with ease.

But, the demanded price is far higher than an equivalent yield from a nuclear warhead.

A nuclear warhead of such magnitude costs about 10,000 gold coins but the anti-matter warhead is 10 times higher. It is around 100,000 gold coins per warhead that only has 1 gm of antimatter.

For 1 kg of antimatter warhead, the price spiked up as high as 100 million gold coins.

It is not just because of the attribute. One should consider the costs of the high explosives and casings, neutron reflectors and tamper materials, safety and stabilization features, etc…

Rather than depending on the system to manufacture these, Mark felt like he should just try to master the attribute and make his own. It is not like he doesn't know how to create antimatter explosives.

Mark was confident about making them in the future, but for now, he purchased 9 warheads with 10gm antimatter, each worth about 1 million gold coins, and 10 warheads with 1 gm antimatter, each worth about 100,000 gold coins.

As a result, his wealth was further reduced by 2 million credits, leaving his net worth with only about 1.3 million credits and 11 million gold coins.

It will still make him the richest individual in the Western Moon kingdom though.

Usually, he would be happy to test them but the high costs made him rethink it and just stored them in the inventory.

Returning to the real world, he then slept for the rest of the night.

The next day at dawn, Mark made his way to the training grounds. By sharp 6, the soldiers and everyone arrived. Song Yue ran late a little bit and arrived 15-20 minutes later but she was alone.

She informed Mark that Xie Mei and her griffin are missing.

Mark didn't place too much attention to it and replied that she probably had gone sightseeing as she told them during the earlier dinner.

Song Yue thought it might be the case and focused on the training.

Little did either of them know that the teenage girl had actually been standing in front of the store since dawn.

She patiently waited for atleast an hour before finally getting to see Meng Tao and Chang Bo. Thankfully for her, there were also no people around as the opening hours start at 9.

They both recognized her and were quite surprised. Following them inside, she took a seat.

"What is it, Lady Xie?" asked Chang Bo.

Xie Mei looked at Meng Tao and replied, "Actually, I came for him."

"Me?" Meng Tao was taken aback. This is only the second time he was seeing her. Or maybe, the third time…

As Chang Bo was about to leave the two of them to talk in private, Xie Mei stopped him and requested him to keep this meeting a secret from their boss.

As both of them nodded and Chang Bo left the room, Xie Mei then said, "Mr. Meng, I want you to train me."

"Eh? Train you?" Meng Tao was confused once again. "You are a 6-circle-realm Spirit Warrior." He reminded her that he was weaker than her.

Xie Mei shook her head with a smile, "I'm not talking in the traditional sense."

"Then, do you mean cooking?" He asked.

Xie Mei shook her head once again and this time, she became direct to clear his confusion, "I'm talking about firearms. I heard Lu Zhen once mentioned that you have the best skills in handling firearms after him and Allen. I vaguely remember watching your battle in the Dragon Warrior tournament. You do certainly have the skills despite the fact that you are self-trained."

"Thank you for the praise, Ms. Xie but…" As Meng Tao appeared to be like rejecting her request, the latter quickly interrupted with an offer, "10 ether crystals of high quality for four weeks of training. Deal?"

"High quality?" Meng Tao was tempted by the offer as each of them will be sold for atleast 1000 gold coins in the market and that too, when available. If he sells all of them as a package in the black market, he could fetch 20,000 gold coins with ease. That's an amount even his clan would struggle to pay someone. 𝓫ℯ𝓭𝓃𝓸𝓋ℯ𝓁.𝓬𝓸𝓂

But, the only problem is the time. How could he afford such time to spend on her training when he has a job to do? Not to mention, his boss (Mark) will be displeased if he knew about this.

Seeing the guy still thinking about it, Xie Mei pushed it further by saying, "I won't take all of your time. Just one hour before dawn and one hour after dusk. Two hours per day. Please help me…"

Meng Tao took a few seconds and nodded, "Okay."

"Great, pleasure to be working with you, teacher." Xie Mei smiled as she bowed to him.

Meng Tao awkwardly smiled as he waved his hands, "Please don't do that… Treat me more like a training partner or a mentor."

"Alright."

Sector 3, Bloodhill Forest;

In an Ether mine secretly located within sector 3 where rank-7 beasts like the werewolves roam around, the Necromancer King was busy absorbing the ether energy from the crystals around him and simultaneously refining it.

His cultivation has grown from the elementary stage of the supreme realm to the peak stage. However, no matter what he does, he couldn't just break through to the demigod realm for some reason. It was as if an invincible wall that is blocking his progress.

Eventually, the whole mine was dried up but still, he has to see the success.

The Necromancer King got frustrated. "Why? Why couldn't I just make a breakthrough? I guess the quality of the mine is the problem. I need to look at a better one."

As he was prepared to leave the place, a voice was heard in the surroundings, "It wasn't a problem of the quality. Your method itself is wrong, Mr. Xia."

The Necromancer King furrowed his brows and looked around. He saw no one and shouted, "Who is it? Come out?"

A figure materialized. He spoke with a smile, "Hello, I'm the current leader of the Church of Doom and I'm here to help you on behalf of Lord Yujin."

"Church of Doom?" The Necromancer King's frown deepened. "You are a successor to that bag of bones, Long Yujin?"
