"Young master, young master, it's time to get up and eat breakfast."
An aged but very serious voice sounded by Zhao Hai's ear. Zhao Hai didn't pay it any mind, only feeling a terrible headache. He thought that his computer wasn't turned off, and that he was memorizing lines from a TV show inside.
But that voice continued, "Young master, it's time to get up. As a noble, getting up on time is a good habit."
Zhao Hai stared blankly for a moment, because this voice didn't seem to be coming from the computer. This voice seemed to be right by his ear, and it was very real. It definitely wasn't a voice from that broken speaker of his.
Even though his head hurt, Zhao Hai still forced himself to open his eyes. What entered his eyes wasn't the white ceiling of his house, but a gauze canopy.
Zhao Hai stared blankly for a moment, turning his head to discover that he was lying on a large wooden bed. Beside the bed stood a man in his fifties, his gray hair meticulously combed, his face solemn, calmly looking at him.
Zhao Hai stared blankly at this solemn-faced old man, and then turned his gaze to look at his surroundings. This was a house made of stone, very simple and crude. Other than the large bed he was lying on, there was only a desk and a chair that could be considered furniture. The floor and walls also seemed to have just been cleaned. The window frames were made of wood, a layer of white paper pasted on top, and there was a sparkling stone overhead for lighting. There was nothing else in the entire house.
At this time, that old man spoke again, "Young master, you're already fine. Please get up quickly. As a noble, you should have a routine of life. Right now is breakfast time, young master, please get up quickly."
Zhao Hai's eyes turned to that old man, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. Transmigrated! Then he felt a burst of pain in his head, and fainted in an instant.
Seeing that Zhao Hai had fainted, Ling Bu Da stared blankly for a moment before hurriedly walking outside. Outside the room stood four people, two men and two women. The two men's ages weren't very old. Looking at their appearances, they should only be in their teens. Looking at their height, they were both more than two meters tall. Their skin and flesh were like cast iron, with dark skin and short hair. The two people looked exactly the same. They were actually twins, but their expressions were a bit silly.
Of the two women, one was slightly older, in her forties. She was very fat and had blue hair. She had a benevolent look on her face. Now, she looked anxious.
The younger girl was only sixteen or seventeen years old today, but she had a head of long green hair, a small oval face, a petite figure, and fair skin. She was a rare beauty, but now her head was lowered, and her face was blank.
Seeing Green come out, the older woman immediately said, "Green, how is it? Is Young Master awake? "
Green nodded, then shook his head and said, "She woke up, but just as she woke up, she fainted again. Merlin, is your magic ineffective? Or is there a problem with those medicines? Did someone do something to the medicine? "
Merlin said with a cold face, "If it's really like this, then I'll fight it out with those guys. Even though Young Master is a bit of a bastard, he's the last bloodline of the Buda clan. Those bastards of the Empire, could it be that they've forgotten how much Master did for the Empire back then? Those ungrateful bastards. "
Green said seriously, "You'd better go in and take a look. If it doesn't work, then use water magic to treat Young Master. No matter what, we must preserve the last bloodline of the Buda clan."
Merlin nodded, but then looked fiercely at Green and said, "If Young Master recovers, you're not allowed to request Young Master according to the nobility's requirements. We've already come to this kind of damned place, what nobility's etiquette? Let them all go to hell. Looking at the faces of those nobles, just thinking about it makes me sick."
Green helplessly glanced at Merlin, but still solemnly said, "That won't do. No matter what, Young Master has the status of a Viscount. He must be like a noble. I have to teach Young Master to be a true noble, so I won't let down the Buda clan's great kindness to us."
Merlin fiercely glared at Green and said, "If you dare to treat Young Master like that, I won't cook for you and starve you to death. Right now, we're in this kind of place, and we don't know how long we can last. With those people from the Empire, do you think Young Master still has a chance to return to the Empire? Stop dreaming. "
Green smiled bitterly and didn't say anything. He also knew that Merlin was telling the truth. The reason they were assigned to this barren place where even birds didn't lay eggs was because the Empire's King and those great nobles had led the way. If it weren't for the Buda clan's previous military exploits being too brilliant, perhaps they would've directly exterminated the Buda clan.
Even though the Buda clan still existed now, it would be impossible for them to enter the Empire's noble circle in the future. So much so that people would deliberately forget that such a clan existed.
And what made Green feel the most discouraged was that the Empire's King, fearing that the Buda clan would once again rise up, actually gave their Young Master, the Buda clan's last successor, the Buda clan's last hope, Adam Buda, to drink the Water of Nothingness.
This Water of Nothingness was a supreme magic treasure. The value of each drop couldn't be measured in gold coins. And this Potion of Nothingness only had one use, to turn your power into nothingness.
Just one drop of the Water of Nothingness could make a magician with the power of a Magic God, or a warrior with the power of a Martial God, or even a Divine Knight instantly become an ordinary person. From then on, there would be no way to use any magic or Dou Qi, and there was no cure.
Even though this potion could make a person unable to use Dou Qi or magic, it wouldn't have any other effect on the person's body. It only turned you into an ordinary person.
If this person was an ordinary person, then this potion was no different from ordinary water. But if this person was a noble, or was a powerhouse, then it would instantly turn you into a magic martial arts cripple, a waste, making you fall from the high clouds into a bottomless abyss.
And Adam Buda was ordered to drink this potion by the King. He would never be able to learn any magic or Dou Qi for the rest of his life, and could only be an ordinary person.
If this matter happened to another noble family, then it wouldn't be much. At worst, they'd just be an ordinary person in the future, muddling along and waiting for death. They wouldn't think about any matters of power and that would be enough.
But this matter happened to Adam and took his life. He was the last successor of the Buda clan. He needed strength to revive the clan's glory, to let the Buda clan once again walk onto the historical stage of the Aksu Empire. But he just had to drink the Water of Nothingness. From now on, he would never be able to learn any magic or Dou Qi. It was impossible for him to have the strength to revive the clan. The Buda clan's last hope was extinguished.
If it was just no strength, Green wasn't afraid. No matter what was said, he was still an eighth level warrior. His wife Merlin was also an eighth level water mage, and his granddaughter Meg was a sixth level wind mage. With them, the Buda clan's strength was enough. If they were in their original fief, then the Buda clan's prosperity wouldn't be a difficult matter. After all, the Buda clan's original fief was in the south of the empire. There was a main city and four medium-sized cities, with a large population and fertile land. As long as they kept a low profile and developed for a few years, the Buda clan would similarly prosper.
But they didn't expect that the king would actually change their fief, from the south of the empire to the Black Waste in the north of the empire.
The Black Waste was a famous land of death on the continent. Although its area was very large, no less than a third of the total area of the Aksu Empire, no plants grew here at all. No plants grew here. Even those plants that grew in the desert would wither and die here.
According to legend, the Black Wasteland used to be a fertile land. Later on, a battle broke out here. Several Magicians at the level of Divine Magicians jointly used a large scale Forbidden Spell, turning this land into a land of death. Nothing grew here anymore.
If it was only a land of death, Green wouldn't be afraid. As long as transportation was convenient, they could do some business. At least they could support themselves. But the Black Waste was surrounded by an abandoned dwarf iron mountain. Over the mountain was one of the continent's five forbidden areas, the Carrion Swamp. This Carrion Swamp belonged to the Buda clan's fief. Really, the Buda clan's fief was the largest in the entire Aksu Empire.
And the only exit here was the Purcell clan's territory. Although the Purcell clan and the Buda clan had an engagement, the Buda clan had fallen to this point. How could they talk about marriage with the empire's most powerful Purcell clan? This place had become a veritable land of death.
Fortunately, this place used to be under the empire's control. Therefore, on the abandoned dwarf iron mountain, there was a small castle. In addition, this mountain wasn't affected by the forbidden spell. Therefore, there was still some land on the mountain that could be cultivated. These people wouldn't starve to death.
And after Green learned that their fief had been changed here, he immediately changed all of the Buda clan's money into slaves, living supplies, seeds, and some tools. Then he led Adam, who was unconscious after drinking the Water of Nothingness, to this abandoned but still usable little castle to live in.
Together with Green were his wife Merlin and his granddaughter Meg. There was also a pair of orphaned twins Blockhead and Rockhead that Adam's father had adopted. In addition to a hundred slaves, there was no one else.
And during the journey from the empire to the Black Waste, Adam had been unconscious. Fortunately, Merlin was a magician and could use magic to treat Adam from time to time. This allowed Adam to safely arrive here. Moreover, she had checked Adam's condition yesterday and thought that he would wake up today. Therefore, Green woke Adam up at the bedside. But they didn't think that the Adam lying on the bed now was no longer Adam. It was just a Zhao Hai draped in Adam's skin.
