Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

The two sides in the dim alley were on the verge of a showdown. A third party, lurking in the shadows for a long time, finally made their move. Several pitch-black metal balls shot out, crashing onto the hard alley floor. A thick white mist instantly filled the air, obscuring the view.

"There are ninjas! Be careful!" The experienced East Country law enforcers immediately recognized that this was a ninja method, and stood back to back in a circle, guarding the surroundings.

"What's going on..." Considering the unknown smoke that appeared out of nowhere might be poisonous, Xingxiong held his breath briefly and quickly retreated to get out of the range of the smoke.

"Hurry up! I'll help you hold them back..." A very light and unfamiliar voice passed by my ear, like the airflow generated by a feathered beast flying at low altitude.

"Thank you." Xingxiong said thank you in a low voice without any hesitation, then turned and ran to the other end of the alley.

The nimble and light Miss Liberi Ninja landed quietly on the ground, flicked her slender fingers, and several metal balls shot out again.

The lavender smoke quietly blended into the white smoke, making it completely invisible in the dim alley. These smoke bombs were laced with hallucinogenic neurotoxins, which were sufficient to delay time and cover the retreat of himself and Xingxiong.

After clearing the smoke bombs he carried with him, the Liberi ninja guessed that Xingxiong had gone far away completely, and his tall figure disappeared silently into the darkness.

The Eastern Kingdom law enforcers, poisoned by the hallucinogenic toxin, were disoriented in the smoke. Stretched out, they finally managed to cling to the wall and escape.

"Ms. Mio, where did you go just now?" Meng Mengxiang asked the returning cold-faced assistant in confusion, holding a cup of pearl milk tea.

"I went for a walk on the other side of the street." Mio, who was already used to lying, was very familiar with deceiving Meng Mengxiang. Her cold expression did not change at all.

"Oh...is there anything delicious over there?"

"...I didn't notice." People cannot accurately describe things they have not seen, so Mio directly said that she didn't know.

"Okay, let's go for another walk." Mengmengxiang enthusiastically took Mio's hand and called out loudly to Eureka who was not far away.

"..." Mio's gaze lingered on the hands they held together for a long time, and ripples began to appear in her calm and peaceful heart.

"I want to protect this child's future." This thought, which had already been deeply rooted in my heart, became even more resolute when I saw Meng Mengxiang's innocent smile.

......

"Missy, I was delayed by something just now. I'm on my way now..."

"How is the situation over there?"

Xingxiong left the alley and anxiously stopped a taxi. After telling the driver his address, he added money and asked for full speed.

The experienced driver, familiar with the city's routes, drove through the streets and alleys and arrived at the designated location smoothly. Lao Chen and Missy were no longer there. They couldn't tell their exact location and could only describe the surrounding environment as best they could.

"Thank you, uncle." Xingxiong thanked the driver and got out of the car. He carried his shield and followed the traces left by the battle.

......

"Old Chen... hold on a little longer... Xingxiong is here." Shi Huaiya hung up the radio and turned back to report Xingxiong's movements to Chen Huijie.

"Huff, huff, huff... Where's Simuitai?" After a long period of intense fighting and high-speed maneuvers, Chen Huijie's physical strength was about to run out. At this time, he was leaning against the wall and breathing heavily.

The enemies who attacked him and Shi Huaiya were still pursuing them from behind. Their magic was somewhat strange, and they were numerous. Chen Huijie could only fight and retreat, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

"They said they are on their way." Shi Huaiya stuck her head out from the corner of the wall to check. The enemy had not caught up with them for the time being, so they could take a break now.

"If the situation worsens later, you go find Xingxiong to meet up first, and I'll hold the enemy back." Chen Huijie raised his head, his eyes still firm on his sweaty, messy-haired face.

"Don't be so stubborn. What can you use to drag things along in this state?" Shi Huaiya rolled his eyes when he heard this. Abandoning his companions and retreating alone was not his style.

"This sword, I also have Chixiao..." Chen Huijie's right hand trembled slightly, and he tightly grasped another long sword that was completely red.

It is the dragon-slaying sword - Chixiao.

After many sparring sessions with Wei Yanwu, Chen Huijie's control over Chixiao had greatly improved. Given his current state, he should be able to perform a Chixiao sword strike.

"Forget it, that sword is too fierce. If you don't control it well, you can easily hurt yourself."

Shi Huaiya had heard of Chi Xiao's vicious reputation and had also seen Lao Chen suffer backlash for using that sword, so she spoke to persuade him out of concern.

"I know my limits..." Chen Huijie turned her head to avoid Shi Huaiya's gaze, and the atmosphere between the two fell into a brief silence.

"Where did those two Longmen policemen hide..."

"They can't run far, look for them nearby..."

"Let me catch them...I must...hehehe..."

At this time, the thieves who were chasing them shouted and searched loudly, breaking the silence between the two at an inopportune time.

"You go quickly, I will delay them." Chen Huijie's attitude could not be refused. He mentioned Chi Xiao and was about to walk out of the corner to fight the enemy.

The enemy was outnumbered, and Shi Huaiya and I would be discovered sooner or later. It would be better to give it a try and give one of them a chance to escape.

"Don't underestimate me, Old Chen. This time, it's my turn to stand in front of you." Shi Huaiya grabbed Chen Huijie's wrist and stood in front of her.

“…I found you…little mice…” The mysterious man in a dark gray cloak, surrounded by the members of Shanhai, made a stiff voice like a machine.

Upon noticing their target, the Shanhai members swarmed over like sharks smelling blood, weapons drawn. A mysterious figure from a high vantage point cast a spell, creating a small sandstorm that trapped the two men fighting back to back.

"Quick! There is a response to the Originium skill here..." The Simuitai-Tianshifu team, who received the distress signal, is rushing to the scene of the battle.

Xingxiong rushed ahead and could already see the two people fighting hard in the sandstorm. She was about to throw out the Prajna Shield to support them. She didn't notice that Lao Chen's right hand had already grasped the red longsword.

"Chixiao! Unsheathe!" With a cold shout, the domineering red sword energy burst out from the scabbard, instantly defeating the sandstorm and rushing straight towards the mysterious man who was casting a spell behind.

The invisible magical barrier before the mysterious man was shattered by the extremely sharp Chi Xiao sword energy. The mysterious man was cut in half, but not a drop of blood was splashed.

The figure beneath the dark grey cloak was actually a puppet crafted using the art of Qimen Dunjia. The true mastermind was nowhere to be found.
