Ark Undead

They all recognized this strange little girl; she was Ceobe, who loved to eat. The image of the Undead carrying Ceobe was already considered a famous painting of Rhodes Island.

Melantha followed behind the Undead, glancing every now and then at Kroos, who was hanging on the Undead's shoulder.

Although Kroos is a good boy, seeing such a scene makes one want to hang on the other shoulder of an immortal.

They look so close!

The purple kitten lowered its head, seemingly pondering something, but its tail swayed from side to side.

The three sat at a table in the dining hall, Kroos still half-asleep. It wasn't until the Undead and Melantha placed the food in front of Kroos that the blond idiot came to his senses a little more.

Watching Kroos eat makes everyone feel hungry; her love for food is a pure desire, and no one would waste food in front of her. They feel that doing so would be disrespectful.

The Undead still hadn't eaten anything; he hadn't even drunk the Humanity Elixir yet, so he wasn't wasting food.

After lunch, Melantha had some time to rest, and she took Kroos back to their room to rest.

Kroos has been acting strangely lately. In the past, Kroos was usually very wary. If someone got too close, she would prick up her ears and look over. This was a habit she developed while she was a wanderer.

During this period, except when eating, Kroos was very energetic, but at other times he seemed to be unable to wake up and liked to sleep with his eyes half-closed.

Whether it's beside the Undead's campfire or beside Vulcan's furnace.

I always felt that Kroos's mental state was a bit strange. But since he's not dead, I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong.

We can only say to wait and see, or perhaps it's because Kroos has been rather lax lately.

After seeing Melantha and Kroos off, the Undead were preparing to return to Vulcan's workshop to see if Vulcan had gone back.

If Vulcan returns, he can meet this new friend of Kroos and ask if he knows how to forge weapons.

At that moment, the communicator hidden inside the undead's armor rang.

The Undead took out his communicator and saw that the caller was Kal'tsit.

This woman, who left me with a dark expression this morning, is now calling again? Has something happened?

The Undead pressed the answer button and heard Kal'tsit's voice coming through.

"Undead, someone has come to visit Rhodes Island. It's an old friend of yours, and also an old friend of the Doctor."

Kal'tsit's tone remained as indifferent as ever, as if she wasn't angered by the undead at all.

"?" The Undead didn't react for a moment, wondering who this old friend Kal'tsit was talking about was.

"In short, the doctor and I will be in the hangar to welcome our friend who has come from afar in ten minutes. We hope you can come too."

Kal'tsit hung up the phone immediately after she finished speaking.

The immortal was about to ask who it was when he heard a beeping sound coming from the communicator.

Good grief, Kal'tsit still doesn't want to say a few more words to the undead, she even hung up the phone so decisively.

After thinking for a moment, the Undead stood up from his seat, picked up the greatsword that was placed beside him, and decided to go and see who this old friend Kal'tsit had mentioned was.

Ten minutes later, at the Rhodes Island hangar.

As the steel gate rose with the mechanisms and gears, its exterior was revealed.

Still in the wilderness, but right at the entrance of the hangar, several vehicles were parked, and in the lead vehicle sat a solemn-faced man.

As the vehicle drove into the hangar, Kal'tsit, along with the Doctor, the Undead, and Amiya, went to meet it.

A robust Fungti man stepped out of the back seat. He first glanced at the four people who came to greet him with a friendly look, then gave the Undead a barely perceptible nod before opening the front door.

A young man with white hair stepped out of the car. He was wearing a black overcoat, and his cane, a symbol of gentlemanly elegance and Victorian style, was propped on the ground. His dark black boots swayed on the ground. His tall stature and proud demeanor made him impossible to ignore in the crowd.

"Welcome, Shivaish of Shelag, the founder of the Karan trade."

Kal'tsit approached SilverAsh and extended her right hand.

SilverAsh extended his right hand and shook hands with Kal'tsit, then looked at the several important figures behind Kal'tsit.

He paused for a moment upon seeing the undead, then spoke.

"I am deeply honored by the welcoming delegation from Rhodes Island. Thank you very much for your attention, Ms. Kal'tsit."

Kal'tsit glanced back, took a step to the side, and then began to introduce the members behind her one by one.

"The current leader of Rhodes Island, Amiya."

Amiya took two steps forward and extended her right hand.

Even though the height difference between the two was quite significant, Amiya still mustered up her courage, reached out her hand, and spoke earnestly.

"Welcome, head of the Shivaish family."

SilverAsh looked at Amiya with slight surprise. Although he had heard about her before, Amiya's age still exceeded his expectations.

However, SilverAsh still bent down slightly and extended his right hand.

SilverAsh then turned his gaze to the man behind Amiya.

"The evil spirits of the Tower of Babel, the Doctor of Rhodes Island. I've heard of them before."

This time, SilverAsh spoke up without Kal'tsit's introduction.

The doctor took two steps forward, looking at the lord who seemed to know him, but in reality, he had no memory of him at all.

However, the doctor still extended his right hand.

"You can call me Doctor."

"Nice to meet you."

That concludes the greetings between SilverAsh and the Doctor.

But whether it's Doctor or SilverAsh, their attention to each other won't stay at this stage.

Finally, when SilverAsh looked at the Undead.

His expression suddenly relaxed.

Even the way they reach out their hands has become less formal.

"I'd heard you were coming to Rhodes Island, but I never expected to be invited to meet me. You truly are a War Knight."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Seeing SilverAsh, the Undead were naturally very happy, as he was an old friend.

Thanks to SilverAsh, the Undead didn't take too many detours on their journey after leaving Kjerag.

The Doctor was quite surprised to see the Undead and SilverAsh so familiar with each other. He had previously heard Kal'tsit mention that this current de facto ruler of the Snowlands wielded immense power in Kjerag. How did they come to know each other?

But Kal'tsit wasn't surprised, after all, Victoria's informants had mentioned that the Undead had a close relationship with the Shiva'ish family of Khalig.

The Undead and SilverAsh reached out and shook hands, even leaning against each other and patting each other on the back.

After exchanging greetings, SilverAsh went upstairs to talk at Kal'tsit's invitation.

"These are gifts from the Kharlan trade, and we hope to forge a good relationship with Rhodes Island."

Kal'tsit glanced at him, gave a word of advice to Blaze who had been following her, and then led SilverAsh upstairs.

The five people entered the elevator together.

But right behind a vehicle from Kalan Trade, a figure quietly slipped off the truck.

Horn Peak was still coordinating supplies with Huang and didn't seem to notice the girl in the fur coat.

She glanced at the elevator that had just closed, relieved that her brother hadn't noticed her along the way, and then quietly slipped into the stairwell.

The girl gripped the sacred bell tightly in her hand.

"God... protect me... I will surely find your call!"

...

On the other side, inside the elevator.

The Undead seemed to hear a sound.

He tilted his head slightly.

SilverAsh glanced back.

"Is there something you need?"

"No..."

The Undead tapped his helmet.

Did I hear that right?

SilverAsh didn't actually have much to do this time.

As the founder of the Kallan Trade and currently the only public face of Kerrig, SilverAsh had also heard the news of the Doctor's return. As a leader who enjoys meeting all sorts of heroes, SilverAsh was determined not to miss this opportunity.

Moreover, he is no ordinary person. As the current leader of Snowfield, SilverAsh has also collected a lot of information related to the Doctor. The Doctor during the Babel Tower era can be said to be SilverAsh's ideal rival and friend.

He never gave up on forming an alliance with Rhodes Island. However, in SilverAsh's view, Rhodes Island without the Doctor wasn't worth the effort he had to make a significant investment in.

Kal'tsit's intention to release the news of the Doctor's return was also with this in mind.

He was, after all, a notorious evil spirit who once roamed the continent of Terra. Even with his memories gone, the instincts that remained deep within him were still enough to support him as a Doctor.

Putting aside other factors, the Undead were indeed the decisive factor in the Battle of Chernobog. However, without the Doctor, the group wouldn't have been able to quickly reorganize their formation amidst such chaos, and most of them left Chernobog with only minor injuries or even no injuries at all.

Scout is already a stealth expert, yet his squad still suffered serious injuries. This shows just how important a good commander is.

In the eyes of SilverAsh and most operators, the Doctor's talent lies precisely in this: his control over the overall situation is terrifying, while his attention to detail is appalling.

Of course, SilverAsh hadn't expected the Undead to gain the attention of Rhodes Island's higher-ups so quickly. His spies in Chernobog hadn't yet been withdrawn due to the chaos in Chernobog, so he wasn't entirely clear on what the Undead had been doing within the city.

However, their relationship remained as good as ever.

After all, SilverAsh was the first high-ranking member of the faction to explicitly express his respect for the Undead. Moreover, his attitude towards befriending the Undead was completely agreeable, not at all off-putting. It was as comfortable as meeting a long-lost friend.

"Besides having business to attend to, I also wanted to talk to you about Mount Kalan when I came to Rhodes Island. I also brought you some gifts."

As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, SilverAsh walked to the back and stood next to the Undead to start a chat.
