Chapter 138 Trading Away The Battle Tank

"Oh, that Gatling-style gun?" Mark knew the machine gun, which was once, one of the fastest guns capable of shooting 2000-4000 rounds per minute. He was naturally happy to receive it in exchange but what slightly disappointed him is that it is a graded weapon.

He knew the system very well. It wouldn't let a graded weapon be sold. Now, the only thing that matters is whether this machine gun has any worthy skills or not. With the weapon only being in gold grade, Mark didn't have much hope but still, he asked the system for its details.

<strong>M134 Minigun</strong>

Type: Machine gun

Grade: Gold

Ammo: 7.62 x 51mm

Barrels: 6

Weight: 39 kg

Length: 801.6 mm

Barrel Length: 558.8 mm

Muzzle velocity: 850 meters/sec

Effective range: 500 meters (Accuracy: 100%)

Absolute Range: 1000 meters (Accuracy: 20%)

RPM: 1000-6000 (can be set beforehand)

<strong>Description:</strong> A destructive machinegun that is capable of destroying enemies within a snap of a finger.

Consumption: The machine gun uses the user's ether energy as its power source. It consumes 1 ether energy point per every second.

<strong>Skills:</strong>

<strong>Ether bullets:</strong> The user could charge the machine gun with ether energy and use energy bullets in place of 7.62 x 51mm ammo. Each bullet fired from one barrel has the power to eliminate any target under the peak-3-circle realm. Cost: 10000 ether points per 100 rounds.

<strong>SuperBeam:</strong> The machinegun will be charged for ten seconds and create a concentrated beam of energy to shoot it at the enemy with 130% attack power. Cost: 50% of maximum Ether energy. CD: 10 minutes

Note: The system recommends the host to have atleast 1.5 points of strength before trying to use the ammunition to handle the recoil force. Until then, it is recommended for the host to use the fixed mount.

"Oh, 130%? That's not bad if I consider the cooldown timer. As for the ether bullets, they aren't worth much. Another problem is its weight.

I can lift 40 kg but I can't hold it for too long. There's recoil force I need to consider. I guess I need to depend on the mount until I gain the necessary strength. Maybe, I can just keep it in the entrance to make it more intimidating.

And there's consumption. 60 ether points isn't a big deal either way. Currently, I have about 2000 ether points. That means I can easily operate the gun continuously for 30 minutes. That's like shooting 100,000 bullets at the enemies. It's awesome but gonna be expensive for sure.

Anyway, let's not wait for this old man for too long. Who knows, whether he might change his decision due to impatience…"

After asking a couple of questions, Mark proceeded to accept the trade. The ring disappeared from his hand.

<strong>*Ding! M134 Minigun has been unlocked. Check out the gallery for details.</strong>

<strong>*Ding! 7.62 x 51mm ammunition has been unlocked.</strong>

After he was done with it, Mark looked at the old man and faked out his expression with a bright smile as if he appeared to be excited, "I'm willing to take the sword. I live in Imperial City and was acquainted with a few nobles and a prince who had awakened a phoenix bloodline. So, I'm sure that I can find you, a successor."

The 9 points of charm worked on the spirit of Emperor Shun who trusted Mark's words and nodded.

As soon as he left the divine sword, it flew by itself and landed in Mark's right hand.

"I will be resting inside the divine sword for the next year. I hope you find the potential successor." Emperor Shun then flew into the divine sword.

As soon as the old man disappeared, Mark received a request from the system for official confirmation.

<strong>*Ding! You received a trade request from the system.</strong>

He clicked on it.

<strong>*Ding! Trade either Battle Tank-V or Attack Helicopter EC665 with the removal of soul fragment from the Celestial Grade sword and bind it to Allen, lottery pick ticket (7 days)</strong>

"I trade Battle Tank-V" Mark spoke to the system.

<strong>*Ding! Confirm with Battle Tank-V?</strong>

"Yes"

The Battle Tank behind him and the sword in his hands, both of them disappeared at the same time and he received a confirmation. Along with that, there were some surprising notifications that he didn't take into account.

<strong>*Ding! The Battle Tank-V has successfully been traded.</strong>

<strong>*Ding! 96 of K3 (120mm ammo) have been returned to the system. The debt was reduced by 192 ether crystals (low) </strong>

<strong>*Ding! 94 of 40mm grenades have been returned to the system. The debt was reduced by 470 gold coins.</strong>

<strong>*Ding! 834 of C6 (12.7mm ammo) have been returned to the system. The debt was reduced by 834 gold coins.</strong>

"So, I guess I made a loss about all those failures?" Mark let out a sigh. When he thought about the character of the system, he felt like it perfectly makes sense.

Since it takes an hour to complete the process, Mark forgot about the sword and opened the Lottery Wheel.

Nearly three days ago, the cooldown timer has already ended but Mark didn't meet any proper enemy to absorb luck points. Even now, he doesn't want to risk absorbing Ji Guanli's luck. After all, there are two things available on the wheel. The rest of the 19 spaces are empty. Unless he possesses 10 points of luck, he cannot risk wasting the turn and waiting for another seven days.

Keeping the lottery wheel window on the side, Mark opened the inventory and clicked on the lottery pick ticket. He held on to it for two seconds before a prompt appeared.

"Use?"

"Yes"

The lottery ticket disappeared and took away all the empty spaces temporarily, leaving behind only two rewards. One Upgrade stone and the other is a unique skill.

After thinking briefly, he selected the upgrade stone, aiming to improve his luck. He doesn't want to keep the matters pending any longer.

<strong>*Ding! Upgrade stone is being sent to the inventory.</strong>

The lottery wheel returned to its earlier state with only one reward and 20 empty spaces. Below it, the spin option is available.

Mark right away searched the inventory and found a blue-colored stone with white patches on it.

He took out the stone and held it. The stone was lightweight and has a smooth surface but was very hard like steel.

He inspected it.

<strong>Upgrade stone</strong>

Grade: N/A

Description: Use the upgrade stone to improve the quality of equipment.

Following the instructions from the system, Mark took out his ring and placed it on the ground. He inspected the ring. There was an upgrade option that became available at the end of its details.

He clicked on it.

<strong>*Ding! Upgrade stone will be consumed. Proceed?</strong>

"Yes"

A blinding flash of light covered the gold ring for a few seconds before it once again revealed to be the same without any appearance chance. While it still looks like a gold ring, it is successfully upgraded, although unfortunately, not a platinum grade.

Mark wore it and then inspected it with Sage eyes. "Eh?"

<strong>Ring of Luck (Bound)</strong>

Grade: Gold+

Description: Absorbs the luck from the targets, increasing the wearer's luck.

Effects: Luck+5

Skill: Absorb a maximum of 7 points of luck from the target. CD: 12 hours.

"System, is there a grade such as Gold+?" Mark asked in confusion. He expected it to become a platinum grade.
