”Finally, the problem with transportation was solved.” Mark explored the list of skills he received from the space attribute, ignoring the remaining ones for the moment.

”Hmm… If I remember correctly, my home planet was named Earth-192 by the system. But, the problem is I don’t know where it is or where am I for that matter. I didn’t learn astronomy to even basically understand the positions of planets or stars or galaxies either. How can I locate my world?”

As Mark was wondering about how to make a visit to home so that he can have his revenge and bring back his brother if it is possible, the system gave its piece of advice without being asked.

*Ding! Zan Rong/Marina Zan has traveled from her host planet to another world via summoning. If the system gets access to her memories, tracing is possible.

”Technically, my soul also traveled from earth to this world, correct?” Mark pointed out that if he can remember his whole life, then, his soul should also possess the memories that can be used to track the earth.

However, the system had different opinions on this logic.

*Ding! The soul can only possess the memories its physical body experienced, and that too, for a short while. The soul itself doesn’t have any memories.

*Ding! The host can only remember his past life because of the system. The system stored all the memories in its database when the host’s soul is merged with Lu Zhen’s.

”Fine, you are the boss. I will have to make a trip to Helios city anyways. I will unlock Mari’s memories using the Eye of Talim and get you access to her brain.”

Helios City, Eastern Sun kingdom;

”Your Majesty, for the past few weeks, the members of our specialized unit were operating the warships. It wasn’t perfect but I think we can go ahead with their launch on the day of your birth,” said Lan Jing, talking about the Kidd-class destroyers they acquired in the auction held by Mark.

Ouyang Zen is going to turn 13 within five days and Lan Jing wanted the day to be remembered by the launch of their super warships that will secure their maritime boundaries against the other neighboring kingdoms. They would also be able to prevent illegal fishing too.

”Okay, you can proceed with the preparations for the launch from the harbor,” The teenager gave his nod and further asked, ”what about the guests? Is Lu Zhen invited?”

Lan Jing nodded and explained, ”Yeah, along with him, we will also be hosting the royal guests too.

King Shen Niu and Princess Shen Ling of Western Moon, the new Dwarven King-Kraggek Jadefury, and Crown Prince Qin Yu of the Kun Empire confirmed their participation.

On the other hand, the Leon Empire only replied that a prince and a minister will attend the lunch but didn’t specify which ones.”

”Alright.” Ouyang Zen turned serious as he said, ”But, make sure to keep this in mind. Our priority for this event should be awakening the memories of my sister. Go and personally escort Lu Zhen if you have to. I don’t care.”

Lan Jing bowed, ”I will contact him and make sure that he brings Eye of Talim along with him.”

Meanwhile, in Sector 3 of the Bloodhill forest;

In the region filled with 7-circle and 6-circle realm beasts, a bunch of corpses was placed on the ground in an orderly fashion.

The Necromancer King was drawing some ritual circles on a large scale with the blade of his doom scythe. Surprisingly, he was no longer in Exalt realm when he came out of his prison. He was now in the 8-circle realm.

After he was done, he placed the corpses around the larger circle while placing the body of a woman in the middle of the central circle. It was Alina, who looked devilishly beautiful as always as a while ago, the Necromancer King flattened her face using brute force and still managed to restore it to normal later on.

He then raised his scythe and proceeded with the incantations.

”Oh, the Lord of Death, Yan Wang, here is your servant praying you for your blessings and…”

The incantation was a minute long and once it was done, strange dark wisps erupted from the corpses and made their way toward Alina’s body.

After entering her body, the dark wisps merged to form a large one before transforming into the shape of a missing hexagonal shaped core. Somehow, all the circuits in her body got activated while dark energy flowed through them.

Alina’s eyes were suddenly open and she sat up. She looked at the long-haired man with the staff and kneeled, ”Master.”

The Necromancer King laughed as he spoke, ”Welcome to the world of the living, Alina. But, I don’t like your name. As my first subordinate, I will adopt you into our great Xia Dynasty. Hence, from this moment, your name will be Xia Fen.”

Alina raised her face to look at him before cupping her fists, ”Understood, Master.” After a brief pause, she asked, ”What are your orders, master?”

The Necromancer King then said, ”We are going to get back my peak strength. Also, we are going to need a mount befitting of our status and an army. Follow me…”

Soon, both of them slowly made their way toward Sector-2, which wasn’t explored in decades because of the existence of beast kings of the legendary realm (8-circle).

Three days later;

Genesis Weapon store, Imperial City;

Mark was casually reading the newspaper while sitting in a corner as the remaining people handling the customers.

Song Yue was working as the manager of the store, Chang Bo went back to being a normal employee, and the new freeloader who is interested in Mark and doesn’t have any job responsibilities just spends her time chatting.

The gold dragon, Jin long, didn’t stay with Mark as he felt suffocated in the city atmosphere. Since Mark has no use for the dragon at the moment, he sent him away but made sure to keep an eye on him.

As a result, both of the beast emperors were currently staying at the ruins of Lan Sect, located in the Kunyu Mountain range. But, thanks to Mark’s rank-9 stats, their telepathic connection was still active. Even from a couple of hundred kilometers away, they could speak to one another.

As for Shang Jiao, she returned to the academy, making Chang Bo a little sad but thanks to a new friend he made, he didn’t miss her as much as he thinks he is.

”This damn idiot… He really made a mess this time.” Mark was busy cursing Feng Wu for letting his grand tutor go wild. Because of the latter’s actions, the imperial army is rigorously searching the Kunyu mountains while the Ji clan has gained additional security.

The whole second page was completely dedicated to the news from Western Yan. As if it is sponsored by the imperial family, the Kunyu bandits were shown in a bad light in the newspaper.

Their crimes were exaggerated too much and their noble deeds like giving charity to the poor are described as an evil scheme to recruit bandits.

Mark could only let out a sigh of pity and turned the page to look for the market section. ”Oh, someone from the inner sector is putting up their store for an auction. It is in a prime location. I can place an office there just for taking orders.”

As he was reading the details, a notification bell was heard in his head, followed by the appearance of the holographic screen.

*Ding! The upgrade time is completed. Inspect Allen for details.

”Finally, the ten days of wait is over.” Mark closed the newspaper with a pleasant smile and got up from his seat. ”Let’s go and have a talk with him…”
