Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

The blood splattered from William's severed arm fell onto Eve's cloak, and the arm that was severed by the blow rolled to her feet.

When Eve saw William's miserable condition, she retracted the magic in her hand and the red light in her eyes gradually dissipated.

When William jumped out to cause trouble, Eve was about to teach him a lesson, but she didn't expect Roy to act so quickly.

William struggled and twisted his body like a mouse caught in a trap. Indistinct words came from under Roy's feet.

"Damn...foreigners...attacked...me."

Roy heard that William seemed unconvinced, and gently lifted the foot that was stepping on the back of his head.

William was about to use his only remaining hand to support himself, but Roy kicked him heavily and stepped on the ground again.

"Crack..." The blood demons watching heard a crisp sound of bones breaking, but they didn't know whether it was the bone at the back or the front that broke.

Roy turned his foot over William's head a few times before lifting it, then wiped the blood off the sole of his shoe with the fine clothes he was wearing.

There were a few blood demons who wanted to help William get back his face, but when they saw what happened to William, they immediately retreated back into the crowd. They lowered their heads in panic, worried that the terrifying foreigner would come looking for them.

Roy looked around with his sword in hand, and seeing the blood demons looking as if they were facing a formidable enemy, he smiled contemptuously.

"If anyone else wants to come up, come together. I'm in a hurry, and your Lord has something else to ask me."

"You said so, Dukare." Roy suddenly said in one direction.

A path was made through the crowd of onlookers, and the Blood Demon Lord Dukare came over with the guards who had brought the news earlier.

Dukare glanced at William who was unconscious on the ground, his eyes full of disgust. He took back the blessing left on him, and kicked William back into the crowd.

"From today on, William is no longer a prince." Ducare said lightly.

This sentence was tantamount to a death sentence for William.

Some blood demons in the crowd had gleaming eyes, looking at William's body with greed. I wonder what the blood of the blood demon prince tastes like...

"My Lord, you are here." Eve bowed quickly when she saw Ducare coming.

For the blood demons who stick to tradition, complicated etiquette has been deeply integrated into their blood.

"Yeah." Ducare nodded slightly.

But his eyes were always fixed on the sword in Roy's hand. Recently, he had been reading ancient books and studying various spells and rituals.

The sword in Roy's hand gave him a sense of familiarity until he saw the traditional Sarkaz words "The Fight Ends Here" on the sword.

He recognized the sword, the legendary sword of the demon king Quillon - Blue Fury.

Seeing that Ducare had punished William, Roy's magic sword turned into particles and dissipated.

"Dukalei, it seems that these people of yours still need a good beating. Do you need my help?"

"Don't worry about it. I can handle it myself. But it will take a few days to prepare the things you want. You can stay here for a while."

The witchcraft circle of the giant beast skeleton has not been completed, and Dukare's ritual has not been completely perfected.

Because he found that there were missing parts in the ancient books collected in the castle, especially the part about "Blood of Tikaz".

He suspected that it was his elder brother who destroyed them. After all, when Ducare was young, he had seen his brother put away some ancient books.

It seems that there must be something hidden here.

What is the connection between the Demon King and the Blood of Tikaz?

Maybe I can get something out of Roy...

When Roy heard Ducare asked him to wait here for a few days, he instantly felt like he was being fooled.

"Why did you call me over when you're not ready!" Roy said unhappily.

"You came too fast and disrupted my plan." Ducare was a little upset.

He had been overwhelmed by spells, rituals, material distribution, and tribal reforms in the past few days. Now Roy had arrived at the Blood Demon Tribe's territory at a speed beyond plan.

He had given him a big job when he first came. Ducare felt that Roy was simply his nemesis. He always caused trouble for him, and he could do nothing about him.

"Tsk..." Roy curled his lips and turned his head away, not wanting to look at Ducare.

"My Lord, Mr. Roy thought I was driving too slowly, so he used magic to fly the car over here..." Eve softly explained to Ducare why she and Roy arrived so quickly.

"......Okay, I get it." Ducare knew that he could not use his own standards to make plans about Roy next time. This guy was a weirdo.

......

Ducare asked Eve to help Roy arrange accommodation in the castle, as he himself had other things to do.

"I didn't expect that this guy Ducare has such a big castle. If I had known, I would have asked him for more..." Roy sighed as he looked at the castle built halfway up the mountain.

This castle seems to have at least a hundred rooms, and the gate alone is two stories high.

Eve easily pushed open the heavy wooden door and led Roy into the castle.

Roy's residence was at the end of the corridor on the third floor. The room was very large and from the window one could see the Blood Demon Clan's territory at the foot of the mountain.

Along the way, Roy saw that most of the rooms in the castle were closed and it seemed that no one had lived there for a long time.

After asking Eve, I learned that it was Ducare who drove everyone out.

"Does he like living alone?" Roy had his own guess.

After helping Roy arrange accommodation, Eve specifically reminded Roy not to enter other rooms in the castle at will, as Ducare didn't like others touching his things.

After Eve left, Roy began to wander around the room. Although the room was decorated very exquisitely, Roy felt that it was not as good as his dormitory in Rhode Island.

It had only been one day since Roy left Kazdel City, but he already missed his doghouse.

"Ah...anything else. This bed is much more comfortable than mine." Roy rolled around in bed a few times and came to this conclusion.

Since there was nothing to do now, Roy began to daydream.

Staring blankly at the spiral pattern on the ceiling, Roy suddenly remembered the spell that could achieve space teleportation.

"Why don't we give it a try..." Roy wasn't sure about the safety of the spell and was worried that he might spread it randomly.

An obscure spell sounded, and a black shadow flowed out from Roy's body and formed a human figure in front of him.

"Just try it."

However, before officially starting, Roy had to confirm the range of Sarkaz that the crown could detect.

Speaking of which, Roy has never fully unleashed the power of the Demon King. After all, he usually gets defeated by the opponent before he even uses it.

The crown rose between the horns, and Roy put his mind into it, expanding it as far as possible.

A huge map unfolded in his mind with himself as the center. There were dots of starlight in the darkness, which were the distribution of Sarkaz in this land.

On this map, there is a place where a large amount of starlight gathers, and that is the city of Kazdel.

Roy zoomed in on Kazdel City and found that there was a particularly dazzling star among the stars. That should be Theresa.

In the past, Roy used to use Black Crown’s internal communications directly. This was a novel experience.

Theresa should be busy now, and she hasn't seen my clone, so let's go find Shining.

Roy found the starlight representing the Shining and connected to it.

At this time, Shining had just finished a day of treatment and was about to go back to take a shower. Suddenly, a strange feeling appeared in her mind, someone was invading her mind.

As an elite among the pardoners, Shining has profound attainments in spirit and soul, although he is still not as good as that of Quesatusta.

She subconsciously resisted, but the next second Roy's voice sounded in her mind.

"I'm coming in, Shining." Hearing this, Shining frowned. She always felt something was wrong, but she couldn't put it into words.

"Is this the way you said to let us know you're safe every day?" Shining and Nightingale sat together and chatted with Roy in his mind.

"Yes, but not completely." Roy explained to them that he had tried to use space magic to teleport and asked the two to be prepared.

"Well, I'm ready, come on." Nightingale was probably very excited because she was thinking about seeing Roy soon.

After receiving the reply that Shining and Nightingale were ready, Roy began to cast the spell.

There was a crack in the space before his eyes. Roy looked closer and saw darkness inside.

He controlled his clone to walk into the crack, and in just a moment, the clone was out of control.

"Roy, did you pass it on?" Nightingale's puzzled voice came.

"Uh... something seems to have gone wrong." Roy scratched his head. It was the first time he used this spell and something unexpected happened.

Fortunately, I used a clone...

In a forest in Kazdel, Master Gray Hat, who had been busy all day, could finally take a break.

High-end ingredients only require the simplest cooking methods. Gray Hat took out some dry food and swallowed it with hot water.

“How about catching a few Originium Worms as a snack?” Although the dry food in the mouth is filling, it will become tasteless if you eat too much.

Do it as you think of it, Gray Hat has his own secret recipe for dealing with Originium bugs.

Just as Gray Hat was turning over stones in the wilderness in search of Originium worms with the help of the light from the campfire, a crack suddenly appeared in front of him.

The man in the gray hat reacted quickly. He jumped a few times to create some distance, unfolded the folding saber at his waist, and stared vigilantly at the crack that appeared out of nowhere.

A figure clad in black walked out, his body covered with red cracks.

The lifeless eyes looked in the direction of the gray hat.

The man in the gray hat clenched the saber in his hand, and his intuition developed from years of intelligence work told him.

"This guy is dangerous!"
