Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel
Chapter 404: The Team’s Dilemma
Under the cool moonlight, the campfire in the open space of the camp was still burning. The food in the pot had been completely consumed and replaced with water freshly drawn from the lake.
There is still an hour and a half before the fire-extinguishing bell rings. The Tara people living in the wilderness must solve the problems that require fire in advance before the bell rings.
Violation of the blackout bell regulations will result in a hefty fine, the exact amount depending on the appetite of the management officials.
Some people really cannot pay the fines. At the very least, they will be beaten with batons, and at the worst, they will be forced to work in mines in lieu of paying the fines.
So in order to avoid attracting the attention of local officials and causing unnecessary trouble to the team.
Wei Cao stipulated that teammates must extinguish all campfires and lanterns and go into the tent to rest half an hour before the bell rings.
Sometimes the clock doesn't ring, but the rules about turning off the engine still apply. Wei Cao uses a watch she bought at a shop on Nasrsha Street to remind the team members to turn off the engine and lights.
After the lively bonfire dinner, the team members got busy, some sharpening dull farm tools, others weaving various tools with straw ropes.
The woman we mentioned earlier who lost her husband and son was mending her torn old clothes by the flickering light of the fire.
She seemed to have some problems with her eyesight. Every time she sewed a section, she had to hold it in front of her eyes to examine it carefully to determine the position of the next step.
Roy added a piece of firewood to the campfire closest to him. The dark red charcoal collided with each other, flying sparks.
The bonfire became brighter with the addition of fuel, hoping it would help the woman a little.
When Roy sent his spell clone to Victoria, his goal was to get a brief overview of Abrana and Ravshini's situation.
Tara was invited to participate in the cultural exchange event held by Kazdel, so the clone was not arranged to bring any additional items.
To solve the woman's vision problem, they needed medicine and a doctor. According to Roy's observation, the team was extremely short of medicine and had no professional doctors.
If you want to lead a team to grow and develop, continuous financial support is essential.
Perhaps Reed didn't want Abrana to interfere with his team, so he chose not to ask her for help.
Roy turned to look at Wei Cao, who was explaining the manuscript story to the children, and asked, "Wei Cao, what time is it now?"
Faced with Roy's sudden question, Wei Cao seemed a little confused. She raised her wrist, glanced at the time on her watch, and replied, "It's 7:30 now. Why are you asking this question so suddenly?"
"Well, half past seven...it's about time. I should go."
"Hey...are you heading back to Kazdel?" Wei Cao closed the manuscript and whispered a few words to the children. Then he sat down next to Roy and asked with concern.
"No, I want to take advantage of this evening to go see Aburana." Roy confirmed again the direction where Aburana was currently.
It was discovered that her position had stopped changing. It seemed that the high-speed battleship "Gastril" had stopped.
"Why don't you rest for a night and go tomorrow?" Weicao subconsciously wanted to keep Roy without any consideration.
If he stayed to rest, which tent should he sleep in?
"As the leader of Deep Pool, Abbrana must be accompanied by cadres and guards during the day. I don't want this visit to be known to too many people, especially the Duke of Wellington's men."
"I understand. Please wait a moment..." Wei Cao trotted into her tent. After a while, she came out holding a dark cloak.
"The temperature drops rapidly at night, and fog will form. Please put on this cloak to protect you from the cold and fog."
Wei Cao held up the cloak with both hands and handed it to Roy. Her eyes were a little evasive, and her gaze kept shifting between the cloak in her hands and Roy.
"Thank you. If everything goes well, we'll see each other tomorrow." Roy did not refuse Wei Cao's kindness. He took the cloak from her and put it on.
"Is this the cloak you wore before?" Roy was surprised to find that there was a wide opening at the back of the cloak, specifically for the tail.
There are also multiple zippers on the side of the hood to make it easier for users to pass the horns out.
This functional design is obviously intended to meet the needs of special races like Reed, who have thick tails and multiple horns.
The fabric feels silky and tight, is both waterproof and wear-resistant, and has a well-controlled weight, making it the perfect choice for long-term wilderness living.
"Well, when I enter the mobile city, I need to disguise myself a little, so I put on this cloak. Since I rarely have the opportunity to wear it, it's relatively clean..."
Weicao was worried that Roy would mind the cloak he was wearing, so he explained it in detail.
"It's okay, as long as the clothes fit me. I'm leaving, good night." Roy smiled and said good night to Weicao, pulled up his hood, and his figure gradually disappeared in the moonlight.
......
In the elegantly decorated room, ripples appeared in the space, and then a cloaked figure appeared.
Arriving at where Abbrana was, Roy took off his hood and quickly scanned the room, his eyes finally landing on the bathroom door where the sound of dripping water was coming from.
"It can't be such a coincidence, right? Abbrana is taking a shower right now. Should I leave first and come back later..."
Roy turned awkwardly, preparing to cast a spatial spell to leave. The tightly closed bathroom door suddenly flew open, and amidst the thick white mist, a pair of slender, snow-white legs stepped out.
"Since you're visiting so late at night, why are you leaving right after arriving, Demon Lord of the Sarkaz..."
Abbrana, wrapped only in a large bath towel, took confident and graceful steps as she slowly approached the Sarkaz man who had his back to her.
A palm burning with purple fire was pressed on the broad shoulder, and the delicate red lips whispered in the ear. The moist air was filled with the fragrance of unknown flowers.
"Put on your clothes first..." Roy took a step forward and temporarily got rid of Abbrana's entanglement.
"Okay, then how about you lend me your cloak for a while?" Abrana raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and her white fingertips stroked Roy's back.
"Don't you have your own clothes?" Feeling the strange stimulation from his back, the muscles all over his body trembled slightly.
"This cloak was specially made for Ravshini. Given our close relationship, it is my dress."
"...I don't think she would agree."
"Hehe... She's not very good at refusing my requests."
"..."
"Forget it. Since I've already given it to her, it's hers. As a sister, I'm pretty generous."
"I'm going to change my clothes, please do as you please."
Abbrana turned and walked towards the bedroom, and the towel fell to the floor as the door closed.
