Ark successfully constructed the second spell, the Water Curtain Technique, but he was not yet a second-class apprentice of the spellcaster, and he had to wait for a month, at least until the mana accumulated enough to be able to release the Water Curtain Technique once, before he could be considered a true second-class apprentice.

"I don't know what happened to Spark, maybe he also built a second spell?"

Ark thought of Spark, the other party's mental power was stronger than him, and after such a long time, his mental power may have also improved somewhat, and there was no problem at all in constructing the second spell.

The effect of the Water Curtain Technique, Yak doesn't need to test it, the first spell that Spark constructed at the beginning was the Water Curtain Technique, and its effect has been tested, and it is still quite good.

Therefore, Ark can only wait quietly for the mana accumulation of the Water Curtain spell model, which will take a long time, a month to accumulate a full release of mana, if it is to reach a full state, it will take at least four months.

If you can prepare some magic potions, it will be able to greatly shorten the time for mana accumulation, but it is a pity that many of the potion recipes recorded in Rick'an's notes, Ark can't find those potion materials at all, otherwise, he is also sure that the mana of the spell model of the Water Curtain Technique will accumulate to a perfect state in a very short time.

As for now, we can only wait slowly.

Time passed little by little, and in the blink of an eye, it was two months, and Ark still stayed in the castle with peace of mind, but the three people hidden outside the castle were miserable.

"It's been two months, how long is he going to stay in the castle?

There was an ordinary room not far from the castle, but the people in the room were not ordinary residents, but had been quietly replaced by three strangers, two men and one woman, all dressed plainly, but the occasional fierce look in their eyes undoubtedly indicated their identity.

"Old Eleven, it's only been two months, don't worry, be patient. ”

It was a bearded, hunchbacked, middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader of the trio.

"This guy is really careful, he hasn't left the house for two months, and if he continues like this, he may really be preempted by the other four guys. ”

The one who spoke was a woman in a tights, she didn't look very good-looking, but her body was very hot, and people couldn't help but look at it twice.

"Don't worry, although those four guys are very strong, and they have also discovered the whereabouts of the Sparks, but they are a little unlucky, the Sparks entered an ancient ruin, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, they do not dare to enter the ancient ruins, in case they are escaped by the Sparks. Therefore, they all lay in ambush on the periphery of the ancient ruins, waiting for the Spark to come out, but after such a long time, the Spark still did not come out, and they did not know how long they would wait. Hehe, we're lucky compared to them, at least we know that Ark is still hiding in the castle. ”

All three are members of the Shadow Guard, Nine, Ten, and Eleven. There is no need to use a name in the Shadow Guard, they are all called by numbers. And their numbers are not arranged randomly, but are ranked according to their strength.

For example, the strongest strength is No. 1, and the strongest Shadow Guard is Captain Gattes, so Gattes is No. 1. A little lower is No. 2, No. 3, and so on, No. 12 is at the bottom, which is the weakest, but this is also the weakest relative to the internal members of the Shadow Guard, if it is placed outside, even the worst No. 12 has the confidence to beat Spark.

This time, the Shadow Guard sent a total of seven people, of which Nine, Ten, and Eleven were sent to deal with Ark, while Four, Five, Six, and Seven were sent to deal with Spark.

In terms of numbers and strength, the members sent to deal with the Spark are obviously much stronger than the ones sent to deal with Ark, which also reflects that the Shadow Guard obviously still pays much more attention to the Sparks.

"Hmph, Four, they're too cowardly, they're so careful with a mere Spark. ”

Ten is a woman, and she is the only female member of the twelve official members of the Shadow Guard.

Nine smiled and said, "It's not that they're cowardly, it's that they're cautious, and they've privately decided that they're going to capture Spark alive, so they have to make sure nothing goes wrong." Just like us, dealing with a mere Ark and staying outside the castle for two months, maybe those guys are laughing at us. ”

mentioned that they had been here for two whole months, and the tenth and eleventh were speechless, and even very embarrassed. They didn't actually take Ark in their eyes before, as long as the three of them made a move, they felt that they could easily catch Ark.

But no matter how confident they were, they would never dare to rush into the castle to arrest people, what kind of joke, there were two large mercenary groups stationed around Ark's castle, and the number reached 20,000.

And according to their observations, these 20,000 people are absolutely elite, not to mention that they are only three people, even if the twelve members of the Shadow Guard are dispatched together, facing 20,000 elite mercenaries, it is just going to die.

Although they were confident, they were not arrogant enough to deal with 20,000 elite mercenaries. That's why they say that Ark was too careful and kept hiding in the castle. If Ark had been hiding in the castle, there really wouldn't have been much they could do to catch Ark.

Unless a large army is mobilized to attack, but it really comes to that point, it means that their shadow guard is too failed.

What's more, the Blue Star Kingdom has no reason to attack Ark's mercenaries, not to mention whether it can defeat two large mercenary groups, Ark's identity alone is destined to make it impossible for the Blue Star Kingdom to use troops to deal with Ark.

This is because Ark is a canonized nobleman of the Blue Star Kingdom, a viscount with a territory, and he also concocted a corrosive potion to indirectly help the Alliance of the Twelve Kingdoms repel the Wesker Empire.

In the face of such a meritorious nobleman, what reason did the royal family have to deal with Ark in a bright and open manner? Therefore, Carlo IX sent their shadow guards.

For some things that are inconvenient for Carlo IX to do, or that cannot be done in the open, then the Shadow Guard needs to step in.

"Don't worry, Yak will definitely come out, at least he has to go to the potion workshop to check it out, once he goes out away from the castle and the mercenaries, this is our chance!"

Nine stared straight at the castle in the distance, he had been waiting a little aggrieved for the past two months, when had the Shadow Guards been so aggrieved to wait for a target for so long.

But in order to make sure nothing goes wrong, they can only continue to wait.

However, it took another two months, a full four months, and when the three members of the Shadow Guard were a little impatient, finally, there seemed to be movement in the castle.

"Come out! Ark is finally willing to leave the castle, and it's not in vain that we've been waiting for four months!"

No. 9, No. 10, and No. 11 are all holding back the fire in their stomachs, and now they can finally vent happily. However, the three of them did not act rashly, and now they are not far from the castle, and if there is any movement, it is very likely that they will be discovered by the mercenary group, so they are still waiting patiently.

Especially when Ark was accompanied by about ten mercenaries, it was almost a team, and it could be regarded as Ark's guard, and in the royal capital, Ark had no sense of crisis, so these ten mercenaries were just a situation. (To be continued.) )
