Weapon seller in the world of magic Chapter 132.1: Taming a Beast King (part

Originally, Mark planned to hand over Ji Guanli to the Kunyu bandits as a present but because of the fuel capacity of the battle tank, he decided to keep him hostage until he was done with the next dungeon and return by helicopter.

As for the dungeon, it is indeed a special one. Unlike other dungeons, it is small and only contains five monsters. So, more than a dungeon, it's like a prison.

But, why hasn't it been cleared yet?

It's because this overlord that was trapped inside it is a legendary realm beast king. The other four monsters were in the seven-circle realm.

A decade ago, a lot of fools risked their lives to gain treasures or clear the dungeon but over time, the numbers reduced, and eventually, it was abandoned.

At first, Mark intended to go to another dungeon located in the Southern Yuan after clearing the first one but then, after seeing how easily the man-faced spider Taslan was defeated, he decided to gamble on it and is also excited to see the emergency quest and its bountiful reward.

It took two hours for the battle tank to reach a valley. Because the dungeon firmly holds a legendary realm beast king as the prisoner, it is so big that it can be seen from even 100 km away. Not to mention, every dungeon emits a special type of dense energy that can be sensed by a high-level Spirit Warrior.

So, it wasn't difficult for Mark and Alina to find it as long as they knew the location, although it was a bit difficult to reach that place. The road was quite bumpy and filled with wild bushes, flowers, and grass. Since rarely any adventurer comes to this place, no one bothered to make a proper route like with other dungeons.

The giant dungeon portal was blue, just the same as a decade ago, stating that there's no dungeon break going to occur.

Of course, because of how powerful it is, it goes without saying that the Yuan Clan, which manages the Southern Yuan Province, kept its eyes on it constantly. A tower was constructed on the top of the hill and three soldiers were stationed there.

Their job is to simply monitor the situation. Because there's no adventurer attempted to go there for the past 18 months, the three soldiers just enjoyed the peace. One of them is sleeping inside the tower and the other two made a fire and is cooking breakfast while chatting.

Because of how quiet the place is, the noise escaped by the battle tank's engine is enough to disturb them.

Both of them spotted the battle tank that is going towards the portal.

"Brother Mo, What is that?" One of them asked.

"That is one strange puppet, Brother Cao." The other commented.

"Is it the Puppet Sect?" The soldier surnamed Cao, wondered out loud.

They just take a note and continued their business. It's not their job to stop someone to commit suicide. So, they were indifferent to it.

Meanwhile, the battle tank entered the portal and the surroundings changed to that of a simple plain ground with two four portals standing right beside each other.

Mark readily stopped the vehicle and read the notifications.

Quest: Clear the dungeon

_{Visit ʟɪɢʜᴛɴᴏᴠᴇʟᴡᴏʀʟᴅ.ᴄᴏᴍ, for the best no_vel_read_ing experience}

Description: Either tame or kill the dungeon overlord, Savage Baltrow.

Difficulty: Rank-8

Risk: Extreme

Reward: Self-propelled Howitzer Pzh 2000.

"I remember the code. It's Panzerhaubitze…" Mark's eyes lit up instantly. "This one is even more powerful than the battle tank I have, right now. But, why is there such a huge reward? Is the difficulty level too high or does the howitzer have weak skills? Or maybe…"

After brief thinking, he asked in his head, "System, is this an ungraded one like the panzer?"

*Ding! Yes, the howitzer isn't an ether weapon but can be mass-produced.

"No wonder." Mark nodded in realization. After all, the first ether weapon that is waiting to be mass-produced needed so much work. The system wouldn't give him a weapon that is even more powerful than the Battle Tank-V that easily.

He then climbed up the ladder and peek outside to inspect each portal. A frown appeared on his face, "all four of them are rank-7 portals? Then, where is the beast king?" Mark looked around.

The place isn't some endless landscape. The blue barrier could be seen around the place. Since this wasn't exactly like a usual dungeon, he thought the rules must be also different.

Mark glanced at the unconscious teenager and then, at Alina, "I'll leave him in your care once again."

Alina looked at him in worry, "but, Big Brother, can you take care of yourself? They are strong beasts, you know."

An hour ago, he was purposely knocked out so that he wouldn't get to see the real prowess of this battle tank. Who knows whether the Kunyu bandits will decide to send him back or use him as a ledger for something…

Now, another issue had occurred for him. He thought he can just ignore them and go straight for the boss. Since his skill attack can lock the target. He planned to stay at the dungeon entrance and just shoot the target from far away. If something unexpected happens, he will drive in reverse and get out of the dungeon.

But, here, the situation is a bit different. Or maybe, this occurred because he hadn't gathered enough information during his stay at Sui province. After all, he never planned to clear this dungeon. But, consecutive breakthroughs during the past two weeks changed his opinion.

The Battle tank cannot take out seven-circle beasts. Last time, it was completely thrashed down by the Cerberus with one attack, although it has more to do with the fact that Cerberus is a beast king but still, he knew that it cannot contend against those beasts.

And there's no guarantee that Alina can defeat them too. The fact that she was unable to defeat Bai Xun clearly tells that she was weaker than them.

And until those four protectors are defeated, a passage that leads to the final boss might not be revealed. So, what to do, now?

After thinking for a while, Mark let out a smile, "I guess I'm going to depend on that steroid, once again."

If not for those advancement pills, Mark would have attempted to make another breakthrough. He received 8000 credits as a reward for the breakthrough. If he can just exchange 20000 gold coins for 4000 credits and use them to buy intermediate intelligence pills, he could just become six-circle right away. But, in such a case, intermediate advancement pills would no longer work.

The reason he takes those pills is to get a temporary boost of ether energy points. With his meager 1000 ether points, even if he becomes a Supreme Realm expert, it would be useless.

This is why he stopped at rank-5 and decided to stay there until he manages to get his hands on high-quality advancement pills or raise his ether points by steadily absorbing the energy from ether crystals.

After the plan is formed, Alina took the unconscious heir of the Ji Clan and stepped outside the tank.

Mark proceeded to open the inventory and click on the attack helicopter, summoning it beside the tank.
