Weapon seller in the world of magic-Chapter 543: Cultivating even before birth?

After a few minutes, the result came out as follows.

Shang Zexi: Southern Phoenix is rejecting the resolution

Shang Wei: Northern Phoenix is abstaining from the resolution

Shen Niu: Western Moon is abstaining from the resolution

Ouyang Zen: Eastern Sun is in favor of the resolution

Feng Chun: Western Yan is abstaining from the resolution.

*Bang*

Mark slammed the plate with the hammer, just like how the auction house master does at the final bid, and announced, "Three Abstains, one in favor, and one rejection. According to Article 3 of the Genesis Cabinet's constitution, the cabinet will revise the terms and conditions of the resolution and send it to the states for approval.

Now, let's move on to the next agenda. The Red Lotus Brotherhood."

Everyone's facial expression immediately changed upon hearing that name.

It was a newly formed rebel group, shortly after the partition of the empire. Their aim is to wipe out wealthy individuals and nobles who enjoy the fruits of the labor done by common citizens. They also held the Shang Dynasty accountable for the Shang Jun imperial massacre incident.

More than a rebel group, it is like a sleeper cell. No one even knows who orders them in the first place and how many people are working for this organization. Any civilian or random adventure could suddenly launch a terrorist attack in public areas and grand events.

If there was one thing that was common, it was their way of conducting the attack.

Mark placed a red pill on the table and spoke, "I believe all of you already know what this is."

Shang Wei nodded seriously, "The Exploding Pill."

Mark then took out a hand-sized glass bottle and placed it on the table, surprising the rest as it had dozens of pills inside. "A couple of days ago, we accidentally caught a suspicious merchant at Lunaris, trying to sell this to a servant of our palace."

"Eh?" Shen Niu looked surprised by this news as he wasn't aware of it.

Mark continued, "The servant was a relative of a soldier who lost his life in the massacre incident.

While we couldn't extract the information of the mastermind behind the organization, what we know so far is that they were targeting the relatives of the victims who lost their lives in that incident, poor people who were frustrated about the inflation, victims or who were related to the victims who were, in one or another, harassed by nobles, military and civilian authorities, etc…"

"What is the source of this jar full of exploding pills?" asked Ouyang Zen. If a batch of pills is so many in number, where each pill represents one possible terrorist attack, it is natural for this 13-year-old to be worried.

Mark answered, "The prisoner said that this was given to him by a wandering merchant in a clown mask and hood. He was given 500 gold coins to deliver to Servant Yu, who unfortunately committed suicide without revealing anything."

"Meaning, they have a high fund source. We need to look for someone with a legitimate business that has the potential to acquire high profits and has a high customer base but for some reason, their profits are only marginal. Businesses where their profits could easily be concealed from the official account books," Shang Wei commented in a firm tone as if he was confident in his hypothesis.

"Hmm, we can certainly start from there," Mark agreed with Shang Wei's thoughts as even Shen Ling opinioned the same when he consulted with her.

After discussing a few other affairs, they concluded the conference and Mark had a series of private meetings with them, who mostly enquired about the status of the weapons manufacturing on his private island and asked whether he could provide the first batch of their orders as it has already been 6 months since he took advance from them.

Unfortunately, Mark could only disappoint them by citing a lack of raw materials for certain parts of firearms. In reality, he isn't interested in releasing them into the market until the numbers reach the (1 million) benchmark. Since he could no longer create weapons out of nothing, Mark had to carefully plan to establish a successful long-term business.

Once he was done with the meetings, he left the palace in his LNovelFire without his father-in-law and traveled nonstop for six hours to reach Lunaris City, before reaching a large mansion in an affluent neighborhood, guarded by robots.

Upon his arrival, the robots made the way for him to enter the Genesis Mansion, greeted by more robots.

From the cook to the gardener, every servant appeared to be a robot here.

He gave nods to each of them, climbing the staircase to the first floor and eventually reaching a bedroom where a 26-week pregnant Song Yue was seen sleeping peacefully. The Golden Demon Kitten, Anan Spencer, was in his cat form, lying beside her and sleeping too. And so was the Manticore, which was lying on the floor. There are a few Rank-8 robots standing in the corners of the room like bodyguards.

His arrival alerted both of them, but neither of them came to him to show their affection, like before. They looked at him and then slept once again as if he didn't matter. As for the robots, they bowed to him and stood straight once again.

Mark couldn't help but let out a wry smile when he saw that and let out a sigh, "Well, it was my decision to cut off my contract with them and force their wills to bind it to Song Yue instead. At the very least, they don't hate me. I should be satisfied with it."

He dragged a chair nearby and sat beside the bed while the manticore, Baltrow, moved aside in silence.

"Ark, check the status of baby," He spoke in his head, taking a glance at her belly.

*Ding! Scanning in progress

A few seconds later;

Fetus (unnamed)

Status: Healthy, Body is fully developed, hibernation.

Gender: Male

Age: 6 months, 18 days.

Estimated time of Birth: Unknown

Cultivation: 1-circle (High)

Attribute: Chaos

Bloodline: Primeval (locked)

Description: The unnamed fetus is the child of Master and his first wife, Lady Song Yue. Due to the remnants of chaos energy left behind by the Orb of chaos after its extraction, the fetus was forced to cultivate automatically before even the birth. However, due to enormous power, the fetus was forced to go into hibernation. Its birth might happen after the end of its hibernation.

"Oh, he already reached the advanced stage? Two days ago, it was only at intermediate stage, good," Mark developed a big smile on his face, feeling proud of the child who has yet to be born. At the same time, there was also this anxiety about when his birth will take place.

Of course, in case of emergency, there was always Sylvandria on her side, the unborn child's godmother, appointed by Song Yue.

But for the moment Sylvandria isn't in the home as she went to Mt. Lan for her breakthrough.

Roughly, Three weeks ago, following Lan Clan's ancient technique, under Zheng's instructions, she created an avatar by splitting her soul into two, using the elemental seed of light, which was brought by Deity Yujiang on Mark's request.

Her ether energy has been halved but resulted in two copies of Sylvandria with mid-9-circle-realm cultivation, one has a light element and the other inherited her divine energy.

Together, they ventured into Bloodhill forest and the oceans on a daily basis in order to increase their cultivation by absorbing the cores of the spirit beasts.

Two days ago, they managed to reach the peak stage and went to Mt. Lan for the merge.
