Sometime later;

Mark and the others gathered at the dead forest, lying at the bottom of the cliff where the campsite is located.

Mark opened the inventory and took out the corpse of the giant lava golem, which stretched for 3200 meters.

Everyone stared at it, mouth agape with incredulity. Even Song Tai couldn't hide his astonishment upon seeing the giant monster up close. Adding on top of that, no holes were seen on its body. Everything appeared to be intact.

Perhaps, the only couple of changes from when it transformed is the dullness of the Fire seeds on its body and the lack of life.

,m The two large fire seeds, one on its forehead and the other on its chest, might not be glowing but they are working perfectly. The best example is the regeneration of the lava golem's skin and organs.

"Venerable Song, Your Highness, now, I need your help in severing its head cleanly." Mark reminded them of the agreement they just made.

According to the agreement, Mark will keep the severed head and the smaller fire seed while the rest of the remains will go to the Imperial Palace.

In exchange for the golem's remains, which can be used to make more than 100 semi-divine weapons, a number of 9-star delicacies, advanced elixirs, and other things, the Imperial Palace will pay 15 million gold coins to Mark (Of which atleast 5 million gold coins in the form of ether crystals or ores). If not for the fact that the golem doesn't have a spirit core, Mark might have demanded more money.

Adding the compensation, he will earn a total of 17 million gold coins. Of course, all of this money isn't included in the 100-million gold coins deal. Not to mention, several storage rings are waiting to be explored.

Hence, Mark managed to make huge profits from this trip and no longer felt disappointed in paying a million to repair the missile defense system.

Meanwhile, the Imperial palace's treasury was downed by a significant portion.

The large amount of savings amassed by the Shang Dynasty's rulers during the past millennium was squandered by the current emperor within just a week.

Now, if the Imperial Palace will pay 17 million gold coins at once, the empire will have less than one-third of the treasury left.

The remaining money won't sustain much longer in case a food crisis or other issues arose unexpectedly and the Emperor knows it very well. Yet, in order to improve the military might of the Empire; in order to bring Mark closer to the Imperial Palace, Shang Fu took the risk.

Shang Wen was aware that Shang Fu spent more than 26 million just a few days ago in the auction. And now, another 15 million. He couldn't understand why his father was squandering so much money on improving the military strength when he was known to be a responsible ruler but he is a General after all.

He doesn't know how the empire is administered or how much money the treasury has. And neither was in a position to question his father's motives too. Hence, he kept his thoughts to himself and went on with the flow.

After the golem's head was severed, Mark stored it in the inventory, and then, pointed to the 2800-meter big headless corpse lying on the ground, "you can take it in any way you wish, Your Highness. We'll meet at the store again, three days later."

Soon, the helicopter left the area, flying toward the Imperial City. Staring at the helicopter, Shang Fu let out a deep sigh and turned around to walk away to the campsite, leaving the work to his son and the others.

Meanwhile, inside the vehicle, Mark contacted the system as soon as the helicopter took off. Since the fire seed is practically useless to him as well as Song Yue, he wanted to know how much it is worth so that he can sell it in some auction later on.

"System, if I want to trade the fire seed along with the lava golem's head, what would you offer in return?" He asked out loud, considering no one can listen to his words.

The system responded right away.

*Ding! You received a trade request. Exchange Lava golem's head (fire seed included) for 18 million credits/Random Mythril graded weapon.

"What the… 18 million? Are you serious?" Mark couldn't just believe his eyes for a moment. "That's like 90 million gold coins."

*Ding! The fire seed possessed by the host is of Superior quality. Upon usage, the host has a 76% chance to awaken the Phoenix Bloodline. Otherwise, the fire seed, like all the elemental seeds, contains a minute percentage of divinity. It is beneficial to the system.

*Ding! The three pairs of eyes, brain, and teeth are precious parts of the lava golem. The eyes contain the bloodline. The brain contains its memories of the earth. And its teeth are more durable than titanium and far stronger than tungsten. Hence the price is fair.

"What if I sell it to you separately? How much they would be worth?" Mark's heartbeat steadily increased in tension. He feared that he made a tremendous amount of loss earlier.

And the system surely disappointed him by confirming his fears.

*Ding! The fire seed is worth 14 million credits and the parts of the lava golem's head are worth 4 million credits.

"The head is worth 20 million gold coins and I gave away such a huge corpse for a far lesser price. No wonder Shang Fu readily agreed to the price without even bothering to negotiate."

Mark was really riding on the wave of emotions on this trip.

He started the trip by successfully convincing Lan Ju to follow him to the campsite.

Eventually, his excitement died down with the lava pillar taking forever to transform.

After that, he became lucky to receive an exoskeleton suit.

However, it didn't last long as he lost an opportunity to acquire the corpse of a red dragon.

Then, once again, he found his happiness by destroying the lava golem with one skill attack.

Unfortunately, within the next few seconds, his missile defense system was damaged to the extent that he needed to pay 1 million gold coins to repair it. Intending to kill the enemies, he had to use the peak potion, which he never wanted to do because Lan Ju was supposed to be tagging along with him.

After that, that feeling of unhappiness disappeared with the Emperor agreeing to pay compensation and even was ready to pay an exorbitant amount to acquire the corpse.

Now, he has money and he has one of the fire seeds.

Just as he thought that he was content with the trip, once again, the unhappiness found him in the form of the system's offer, which made him realize that he actually faced a huge loss by making deal with the emperor.

Knowing that it is almost impossible to acquire 90 million gold coins even if he sells the head with the fire seed in some grand auction, Mark decided to make the deal with the system and find temporary satisfaction. As for acquiring the majestic Phoenix Bloodline, he wouldn't do it even if the system offers him a reward in return.

"System, I accept the trade."

*Ding! Choose the exchange item: 18 million credits/Random Mythril grade weapon.
