Weapon seller in the world of magic

Roughly Three hundred kilometers away from the mainland, there used to be an island, a 5 sq. km of land filled with beautiful white beaches, lush forests, and a large mountain.

But now, the forests are gone and replaced by gardens. The mountain completely disappeared and was replaced by a lighthouse.

Instead, a massive factory that encompassed three-fourths of the island, over 4 sq. km in area, became the landmark of this location.

From the outside, it looked like a giant dome made of white granite. But when one steps inside, their minds will surely blow up in amazement.

Magical ceiling was applied at the largest section of the factory, which is actually almost 90% of the factory, and makes it seem like it is under the sky.

Usually, it is a testing arena where Mark tests his weapons, but at the moment, it has become a battleground for Shang Jiao and her recent mentor and also her friend, Jingwei.

The 16-year-old princess was already in the legendary realm and currently perfecting her new Bloodline ability, the Eternal Ice, in which she could endlessly conjure ice for a couple of minutes and manipulate it in any way she wanted.

The skill was so strong in her hands that even Jingwei, a supreme being, was completely focused on evading it as a streak of ice chasing her at subsonic speeds.

Naturally, her speed is way higher than the streak of ice and she couldn't help but taunt her opponent with provoking words.

"C'mon, little princess, try to catch me up" "What happened? Did you slow down? At this rate, you won't be able to master this place" "Don't you want to get out of here and assist my papa? Put more ether energy into it…" "You are doing nothing but destroying this place."

However, Shang Jiao completely ignored her taunts. She was standing on top of an ice pillar with icy wings sprouting from her back; her gaze looked calmer, and it was difficult for Jingwei to see through her thoughts.

Jingwei eventually got bored of it and decided to patiently evade the ice streaks and then knock out her opponent once it disappeared.

It was only after a while did she realized that she was actually playing right into Shang Jiao's hands. By the time she realized it, she was surrounded by the ice streak on all sides. The only way for her escape was to fly higher, but there was a giant Ice mirror covering the sky above her.

Shang Jiao finally let out a smile as she motioned her hand, "Now."

In an instant, thousands of icicles gush out of the mirror, raining down on Jingwei. The latter covered herself with an energy barrier.

It was at this moment all of a sudden, the false sky turned scarlet and the ice streaks disappeared at once; so was the energy barrier around Jingwei. Both girls started falling to the ground.

As they landed safely on their feet at the same time, Mark was seen entering the space in a white lab coat alongside a robotic three-headed hound (Alina) and a couple of robots in lab coats too.

"Zhen-ge," The little princess was taken aback in surprise, upon seeing her brother coming out of nowhere. "When did you arrive?" She hastened her pace toward him, ignoring Jingwei altogether. However, the latter beat her to it with a dash to Mark and grabbed his arm, "Papa…"

Mark stroked Jingwei's hair with a smile but had his attention on his sister instead, "Jiao-mei, I need your help with testing a missile."

"Okay, sure," Shang Jiao's eyes lit up as if she was excited. However, Jingwei, who was enjoying her time snapped out of it and protested by tugging his sleeves, "Papa, I'm stronger than her and in a higher realm. Shouldn't I be the one to help you?"

"Excuse me, Wei wei…" Shang Jiao folded her hands to her chest and let out a smirk, "Who was the one that ran away like a scaredy cat? You were almost defeated by the one in the lower realm."

Jingwei sharply stared at her and argued, "Hmpf, who was afraid? I was just biding my time. Moreover, I was helping you out as your mentor. I could destroy it in a matter of seconds if I want to."

"Oh, Yeah? Then, how come I never saw you did it? You always beat me with your higher speed," Shang Jiao didn't back down.

"Then, let's resume our spar. This time, not only I will destroy it head-on but I will also teach you a lesson on how to respect your elders," Jingwei displayed confidence, glancing at her master from the corner of her eyes.

"All this time you were acting as if we were the same age and suddenly you become my elder? Fine with me. Let's fight. Your bluff doesn't work on me…" As Shang Jiao looked like she was ready to fight, probably to show off her prowess in front of her older brother, the latter interrupted them before it got out of his hand, "Okay, stop it you two."

He then pointed his finger at the red skies, "You see it right. I have activated the Null mechanism. Neither of you will be able to use your powers in this place. Now, Jingwei, this has nothing to do with who is stronger. My sister's ice manipulation is stronger than mine and I need that ability for my test."

Alina chimed in, "Yeah, that's right. We need to test our 'Song II' missile in extreme cold conditions."

Named after Song Yue, the Song missile is a nuclear-capable missile, created by Mark and Alina a year ago, using Brahmos missile as the base. It was also the first missile he actually built in this world.

This versatile missile could be launched from land-based mobile autonomous launchers, naval vessels, and aircraft.

However, it could only move at supersonic speed (Mac 2.9 without a warhead) and the range is around 300 km.

For the past few months, Mark has been working on this project, placing Alina as the main researcher for it. Their aim is to increase its speed, range, and yield capacity, eventually giving birth to Song II, which has a 560 km maximum range without a warhead and has over Mac 4.5 speed. Yielding capacity is also increased from 42KT to 75KT.

But, it has its own challenges too.
