Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

It has been nearly half a month since Kazdel's commercial landship docked at the port of Oak Forest County, and the originally empty cargo hold has been filled with various materials.

The mechanical engineers were conducting a pre-departure inspection of the entire ship. The three brothers Zoe, Hunter, and Frankie, along with a few reliable and well-behaved co-workers, planned to go to Kazdel together to work hard.

Ultimately, Zoe failed to convince her girlfriend and had no choice but to leave Catherine temporarily. She decided to prove that her choice was right after making a name for herself.

Catherine and Zoe agreed that they must keep in touch through letters and that she would always wait for him here.

Reiner and his mother, Ms. Kalina, moved all the belongings they had accumulated over the years into an empty room on the ship and settled down there temporarily.

The two Sarkaz who had never set foot in Kazdel would be transported by the landship back to their real home.

After Roy barely won the maid outfit challenge jointly launched by Shining and Nightingale last night, he couldn't help but sigh that the Victorian aristocrats really knew how to have fun.

Through the Black Crown's internal communications, Roy informed Theresa of his upcoming return to Kazdel.

With a happy smile on his face, Roy was cuddling with Theresa in his mind as he went to the upper deck via the elevator inside the ship.

I climbed onto the empty upper deck, put my hands on the railing, and enjoyed the good weather today.

The sky in Oak Forest County was as clear as a piece of blue paper. A few thin white clouds, as if melted by the sun, floated slowly in the wind.

Outside the city, there are scattered fields belonging to the village. Old steam tractors are spewing white smoke and working hard on the hard land.

Farmers need to loosen the land in advance and mix organic fertilizers into the soil in preparation for the upcoming spring plowing.

The breeze brings intermittent bagpipe sounds, blowing on your face, making you feel happy.

After this period of understanding, Roy had his own understanding of the people of Victoria.

People at the bottom of society always hope to improve their lives through hard work.

The middle class people hope for social stability so that they and their families can live a peaceful life.

As for the Victorian aristocrats, they were supported by the lower classes but brought suffering to the people in return.

The major dukes each had their own ulterior motives, undercurrents were surging within society, the throne of the kingdom had been vacant for more than a decade, and there was no way to strike a balance between the nobility and the royal family.

This country needs a great transformation. The current Deep Pool can't do it, and neither can the dukes.

Deep Pond is just a violent organization that was forcibly held together by the Tara people, taking advantage of their hatred for their suffering.

Abrana did not personally experience the sufferings of the Tara people, but she achieved her own goals by constantly inciting hatred in the hearts of the Tara people and luring them to join the Deep Pool.

To many Victorians, Deep Pool was a group of Tara thugs, not unlike the highwaymen who roamed the wilderness.

They didn't know what Shen Chi was going to do. The funny thing was that even Shen Chi herself didn't know. They just blindly followed their leader and obeyed the orders she gave.

What does Abrana really think? Perhaps only by asking her in person can we know...

"You're here, Miss Abrana." Roy noticed the slight movement behind him and said without turning his head.

"Mr. Roy, if you relax like this, be careful of being attacked from behind with a spear." Abrana came over with an elegant and calm pace with a polite smile on her face.

"Will you?" Roy turned his head to look into Abrana's deep eyes and asked back.

"You know I'm no match for you, and you've helped me and Lavishini. How could I attack my mentor?" Abrana replied with a smile.

"Do you have anything you want to ask me this time?" Roy looked at Abrana deeply and continued to look at the farmers working hard in the distance.

"Heh... Mr. Roy is really sharp. Then I won't say so many useless flattering words. Why did you do that yesterday? Ravshini and I probably don't have anything you would like..."

After Abrana asked her question, her eyes were fixed on the changing expression on Roy's face.

Although she does not have the ability to see through people's hearts like the power of the devil, but after years of interacting with various nobles, she has developed a meticulous ability to observe people's words and expressions.

"Let me tell you a story. You should understand after listening to it." Roy did not tell Abrana directly, but planned to tell her a story.

"You talk, I'm listening." Abrana nodded and listened carefully to what Roy said alone.

"This is a story that spans thousands of years. On a large land, there are many different races of people. One of these races is discriminated against and oppressed by the other races."

"Their homes were rebuilt and destroyed over and over again, and this process lasted for thousands of years."

"During this process, they thought of many ways to save themselves. In order to protect their homeland, the monarch took the initiative to attack and killed all the enemies who oppressed them."

"He achieved temporary victory in his generation, and the monarch of the tribe left a shadow of terror in the hearts of his enemies."

"But their race lags far behind other races. After the death of this monarch, this race is still unable to compete with other races."

"So they began to migrate and escape, and came to a poor land, where they established their own country."

"But the war that lasted for a thousand years came again, and this race, after suffering heavy losses, once again repelled the enemy."

"When the race was in a life-and-death situation, two monarchs appeared. They were a pair of brothers and sisters."

"My brother advocated starting a war to disrupt the fragile stability of the earth. When other races have no time to pay attention to them, they took the opportunity to develop themselves."

"My younger sister advocates peaceful development. She only hopes that her race can settle down and build their own home."

"She is an idealist who believes that one day, all races will understand each other and face the crises that will come in the future together."

"This place looks a bit like you and Ravshini in the future." Having said that, Roy found it a little funny. How could it be such a coincidence?

"..." Abrana did not interrupt, but waited for Roy to continue.

"Both the brother and sister were trying to continue their race, but they adopted different methods. So they each took different paths, and in the end a civil war even broke out."

"My sister's ideals are too vague and intangible. Her tribesmen cannot understand this, and most of them decided to support my brother."

"In the civil war, my sister was at a disadvantage. Until she received a powerful helper."

"The new collaborator used his powerful strength to clear away all obstacles in front of my sister, ending the civil war between the brother and sister, as well as the invaders who came after hearing the news."

"With the all-round military deterrence from both inside and outside the company, the elder brother recognized his sister's ideals and began to help her with all his strength."

"This long-suffering race ended the war and began to develop rapidly."

"In fact, if the paths of the brother and sister can be combined, learning from each other's strengths and weaknesses, they can achieve their ideals without the need for outsiders."

"But how much suffering do we have to endure in the process of realizing our ideals? So when necessary, seeking help from outside forces is also a good choice."

Roy simply summarized and processed the thousand-year history of the Sarkaz and told it to Abrana.

Compared to the sufferings endured by the Sarkaz, what happened to the Tara people is nothing.

With Abrana's tough and decisive approach to external affairs and Lavshini's internal ideological education, the independence of the Tara region as a new country will be a foregone conclusion.

But the Dukes of Victoria did not want to see this. Nearly half of Victoria's population were Tara people or people with Tara blood.

Once Tara declares independence, the entire country of Victoria will fall into chaos, and they will definitely stand up to stop it.

How could the newly developed Tara possibly be a match for the Victoria high-speed battleship?

Just like the newly born Kazdel, if Roy hadn't been there to deter others and drag Victoria out to kill her to establish her authority, other countries would have taken action long ago.

"So what you mean is that you have plans to help Shen Chi?" After listening to the whole story, Abrana immediately thought of the recent changes in Kazdel in combination with the question she just asked.

The powerful helper in the story should be Mr. Roy himself.

"It's not about helping Deep Pool, but about helping the people of Tara. Whether you can get my help depends on you." Roy shook his head, rejecting Abrana's inference.

"Me and Ravshini?" Abrana fell into deep thought. She didn't know what the future Ravshini would be like as described by Roy.

However, according to the younger sister's description in the story, in the future, Ravshini should have left the Deep Pool and no longer be her shadow leader.

What about the future in which Roy mentioned his sister's death?

"If we can meet your expectations, what can you do for Tara?" After thinking for a moment, Abrana seemed to have made some decision.

"Just like the story says, clear away all obstacles in front of you." Roy smiled confidently and made his promise.

"So after all you've said, I still don't know why you want to help us." Abrana raised the question again.

"Didn't I tell you? I just do what I want. I'll help whoever I want to help. There's no need to ask so many questions..." After lying on the railing for too long, Roy raised his hands high and stretched comfortably.

"You are such an interesting person." A tiny arc appeared at the corner of Abrana's mouth. Although it was imperceptible, it came from the heart.

"So, if you want my help, you and Ravshini should work hard to be good leaders. I will consider it as an investment in you. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

Roy extended his hand to Abrana, and noticing the lingering smile on Abrana's lips, he returned her a sincere smile.

"Have you foreseen this future?" Abrana did not hesitate and held the hand Roy extended to her.

Draco's body temperature is higher than that of ordinary people, but when Abrana shook hands with Roy, she was surprised to find that she felt a scorching heat in her hands.

This is not simply a high body temperature, but the other person's life energy is strong and surging, Abrana can feel it through physical contact.

"It's better to leave some suspense about this."
