Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

Countdown to Requiem – twenty-four hours.

"Ms. Mudstone, can you help me move those colored lights over here?" a Sarkaz girl asked, pointing to several boxes of colored lights in the corner of the venue.

"Okay..." Mudstone did not wear a helmet today, but revealed his true appearance confidently and generously.

The young and beautiful Sarkaz girl with white hair and red eyes attracted the attention of countless people, especially those hot-blooded young people.

"Hey, Tiechui! Look at your captain, she's so handsome and works so fast, why don't you try to get her?" Several workers were joking and chatting while building the scaffolding.

The Sarkaz called Iron Hammer turned his head to look at Mudstone who was stacking several heavy boxes together and lifting them up easily, and shook his head with a bitter look on his face.

"Don't be ridiculous. Our captain's mind is on that prince. She didn't wear a helmet to work today. It's very likely that the prince is here too."

Tiechui looked at Roy who was directing the layout of the venue on the other side, his eyes flashing with loneliness and envy.

Mudstone is in a good mood today, and anyone who knows her can see it.

There was a happy smile on his face, not sure if it was because Requiem was tomorrow or because Roy was watching not far away.

Her silver hair was tied up with an exquisite braided hairband, with a small bell hanging at the end. As the ponytail swayed, it made a crisp sound.

This was the gift Roy gave to Mudstone after returning from Longmen, successfully unlocking the single ponytail form.

It can be seen that Mudstone likes it very much. After learning that Roy will come to direct the layout of the Requiem venue today, he specially put on a hairband to show it to Roy.

On the huge platform of the venue, Roy, Fremont and the elders of the dead souls had a heated discussion on the format of the requiem ceremony tomorrow night.

Fremont believes that this is a very important traditional festival of the Sarkaz and should be held in the traditional way.

The whole ceremony should be solemn and dignified, not a celebration like Roy imagined, with free wine, barbecue, costume performances, colorful lights and fireworks.

The most important thing is that the humanoid bodies that I had the liches create were to make it easier for them to move around in the future, not to let the ancestors come out to perform shows to entertain them.

Roy represented the new trend, while the old lich Fremont represented the traditional. The two quarreled fiercely on the stage, and they were just about to move out a table to arm wrestle to decide the winner.

The elder dead soul felt that both sides had their reasons, but in the end, it chose to stand on Roy's side because of Roy's achievements and status.

Frémont had no choice but to do it since His Highness and the ancestor both thought it was a good idea.

The old lich turned his head and looked at the younger generations of the Sarkaz who were at the bottom of the platform, working together to erect wooden stakes, hang colorful lights everywhere, and place various decorations.

I suddenly felt that the Requiem described by Roy might be more suitable for them.

New Kazdale City

In the huge square in the city, temporary shops are selling various props needed for Requiem costumes.

There are all kinds of fake Sarkaz horns, fake halos and wings needed to play Sakta, fake bear ears for Ursus, fake tails for Kuranta...

In this city, Sarkaz and non-Sarkaz residents roughly each account for half.

A large number of people come here to make a living or seek treatment for mineral disease, and live with the local Sarkaz.

I don't know when it started, but Requiem has had elements of cross-dressing. Not only do non-Sarkaz pretend to be Sarkaz, but Sarkaz also pretend to be people of other races.

On that day, if you see someone with Sarkaz horns, a Sakta halo, and a Kuranta tail on the street, don't panic and don't try to confirm which of these features are real.

As long as we are all on the land of Kazdel and live together, that is enough.

In the square, a black-haired Sakta carrying a musical instrument case walked quietly through the crowd.

Noisy sounds entered the black-haired Sakta's mind, not only the shouts of vendors and the bargaining of buyers, but also sadness, joy, excitement, happiness...

In her eyes, these emotions are like strings of a guitar, waiting for her to pluck them gently.

But for Arturo, there are stronger hearts and more beautiful emotions in this city, waiting for her bow to sound.

......

The vast wilderness outside the city of Kazdel is covered with artillery pits and traces of tracks.

The Wang Ting army used this place as a training ground for high-speed warships to familiarize themselves with the operation, maintenance and combat methods of these powerful and complex weapons.

What is now underway is the last round of naval gun aiming exercises of the morning. Just as the naval gun operator locked onto the hypothetical target a few kilometers away through the sight, an ordinary medium-sized land craft slowly appeared near the target.

This is Rhine Life's landship. After traveling through multiple countries and spending a lot of time, Kal'tsit finally returned to the land of Kazdel.

Just as she opened the curtains and prepared to see the changes taking place on the land, a dark mass in the distance caught her attention.

"Is that a battleship?"

At this time, in the control center of the Rhine Life Landcraft, the captain received a radio signal to confirm his identity.

The observer high on the deck also reported to him that the fleet in the distance was pointing its black guns at its own ships.

The captain immediately stated his identity and purpose, and ordered the landship to stay where it was and wait for the signal allowing it to pass.

On the high-speed battleship side, Manfred reported the situation to Tracys and received the order to allow it to pass.

After receiving the signal allowing him to continue passing, the captain immediately stepped on the accelerator and sped away from the area.

The captain, who had been on edge, finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the mobile city's dock.

With so many naval guns pointed at them just now, as long as the other party gave the order, this landship and all the people on it would be blown up into the sky.

Fortunately, we arrived at the destination safely. After sending a connection signal to the mobile city, the mobile city that looked larger quickly responded.

After receiving the reply, the Rhine Life Landship slowly docked at the port of New Kazdel.

After hearing the broadcast that the ship was about to dock at the mobile city, Muirseth quickly put on some light makeup and dressed herself more formally.

As soon as I walked out of the cabin, I ran into Kal'tsit, who was also preparing to board the city as soon as possible after docking.

"Ms. Kal'tsit, it looks like we're going the same way, would you like to go together?"

"Um......"

The tightly closed cabin door slowly opened, and the breath of the city wafted in.

Muirseth is ready to face the test of Kazdel's harsh environment.

But what she didn't expect was that the air here was quite fresh, and the number of Originium particles in the air was unreasonably small.

She placed her hand on her forehead to block out the glaring sunlight and looked up at the city sky.

A huge light blue grid covered the entire sky, and she didn't know what it was. She could only follow Kal'tsit's footsteps and meet the people who came to greet them.
