Lord of the Oasis

The nobles of the Principality of Lions are spying on Kant greedily.

And why isn't Kant plotting against them?

The Naron Desert is really barren. Even if there is systematic help, Kant has to go all out and focus on Songun politics in order to ensure his own strength and control over the area.

But even so, the foundation for the development of the Nalen Desert is here.

Even the development prospects of the Sangwaya Mountains are not at a high level.

In terms of environment, barren deserts and complex mountains can never be compared to fertile plains. This is an eternal truth, and it is the difference between the advantages and disadvantages brought by the environment.

Now, Kant has taken his first step towards attacking the Principality of Lions.

The Northern Territory is not rich.

It can be said that it is the most barren county in the Principality of Lions.

But it is still much better than the Nalen Desert, not to mention that Kant's goal is also to use the northern county as a springboard to extend his power to the southern county or the east county.

As long as he gets more troops, he can rule the country.

Strength is the truth.

What's more, Kant's bloodline also has the inheritance bloodline of the lion duchy. In fact, he was originally the second-in-line heir to the lion prince Cameron!

It is only because of the political factors of the ancestors that he was excluded.

If you fight for the title of Grand Duke.

Kant is fully qualified for this!

Fatis led the team, 10 lion knights, 100 Swadia knights, and 500 Swadian infantrymen who had been promoted to level 4. They were completely able to take root in the Stone Pass to ensure their own safety. Control the dungeon firmly in the palm of your hand, without fear of the backlog of other forces.

After all, they are extraordinary knights, knights who can run rampant in the Principality of Lions, and accept the courtesy of many nobles, even if they encounter the royal family, they can maintain their own demeanor and receive a grand etiquette in front of Archduke Cameron.

This is the prerogative of the strong.

And the strength of a country has a one-sided measure of strength, which is also the number of these extraordinary knights!

Not to mention this mere Stone Pass.

Even the entire North County Territory, on the bright side, the official number of extraordinary knights recorded is only 10.

Now there are 10 people here, and they are all united, and they are the great knights who are completely unified with extraordinary power. How can they not be able to deter this place, and how can they not control this stone pass?

Of course you can control it!

This is precisely what Kant's confidence is!

Fatis led the team away.

The central station returned to its former silence.

The Salander rider was looking after the 724 captives, all gathered at the corner of the inn, squatting on the sand, his face full of ashes, the panic and despair in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

They all saw that Baron Dylan was taken away by those elite knights.

And his actual commander.

That is, the two great knights from the East County Territory were left here alone, including the 30 vassal knights of Baron Dylan. No one returned with the returning troops, and they were all kept under guard at the inn. .

If possible, they would prefer to leave, leave this desert far away, and never dare to set foot in it again.

But this is their delusion.

Kant won't let them all leave, after all, these are his captives, who can mine a lot of salt for him in the salt mine to ensure the smoothness of the salt trade again.

Before the curtain of death arrives, Kant intends to accumulate the next batch of coarse salt.

This is the basis for the future salt trade.

Only a steady stream of salt trade can bring golden eagles that can be exchanged for dinars, and can make Kant develop faster and expand his power even more. This is a crucial link.

Once the salt trade is interrupted, Kant will also fall into a situation where the capital chain collapses.

After all, the current situation is not good for him.

Even if Kant has the ability to push the Principality of Lions horizontally, the subsequent ruling work is absolutely difficult, or even impossible. After all, those nobles will never allow Kant to enter their traditional sphere of influence abruptly.

Even if an aristocratic power is destroyed, the power vacuum that can be formed cannot be filled by Kant.

He doesn't have enough troops.

There are also not enough allies.

If any of the nobles of the county can support Kant, then he can directly swallow the Principality of Lions, and then it will be a big deal to divide those power vacuums and give them to these allies.

The interests of alliances and alliances among nobles are also here.

It's just a technique of vertical and horizontal.

It is for this reason that Kant did not completely bring his power into the Principality of the Lion.

If they really attacked the Principality of Lions and defeated a large number of enemies, in the end, they would only be able to leave a large vacuum of power, which would be given to others and become free labor for other forces. Naturally, Kant would not do such a thing.

If he has the ability, he would rather swallow the world!

If you don't have the ability now, then you can devour the world!

It's all strategic.

After arranging the central station, Kant needs to clear the battlefield quickly.

Baron Dylan blocked the Stone Pass, which eventually made it impossible for the caravans to enter. After returning to the Stone Pass and Fatis taking control of the area, the trade route will be opened again, and the caravans will definitely continue to come.

By then, it is estimated that the salt trade will be even larger.

Kant has flexed his muscles.

He can be called the overlord of this place. Even Baron Dylan has been defeated, and the Stone Pass is controlled by his forces. It is really difficult for other nobles to go deep into the desert of Naron.

The first thing to do is to conquer Stone Pass.

They have to go through the desert to attack the central station.

In the end, facing the huge fortifications of the "Drehem" castle in the sentry oasis, there is still a bit of enthusiasm and morale. It is really two things.

Back then, the high-level gnolls of the Greymane Kingdom were so invincible in foot combat that they attacked the fortress-level "Drehem", but the 5-meter-high city wall and the 2-meter-high attic were all destroyed, let alone humans.

Although there are also those high-level gnolls who are exhausted.

But at that time, Kant was so weak that he could only protect himself. Where could he have the current strong force?

Now he can be called the overlord!

"Rolf."

Kant made arrangements and instructed him: "Clean up the battlefield, and then start next week, the salt trade will start again, continue the task of patrolling and maintaining order, and stick to this place."

"Understood." Rolfe nodded solemnly immediately.

"I'll go back next."

Kant frowned.

The undead in the depths of the desert are still threatening him. Although 5 months is not short, it is definitely not long!

After pondering for a moment, he turned to look at the mages who were talking to each other behind him.

11 mage apprentices, and 7 mages.

These mages of the Enfass Empire had a great time talking in detail, and it seemed that they all talked about the topic of the sun disc.

"Cough cough."

Kant let out a light cough.

The 18 mages reacted immediately and came to Kant to salute: "Sorry, Lord Lord."

"fine."

Kant shook his head and asked: "Listening to your topic, it seems to be discussing the sun disk."

"Yes, Lord Lord, the wonderful thing of the sun disc is indeed the focus of our discussion, and in response to the current predicament, we also agree that the sun disc containing positive energy is indeed the one that we can currently To have, and it's the best way to deal with it."

The leader of the mage is the mage apprentice who proposed to Kant to study the sun disc.

After discussion and the original research, they still guessed a few conclusions.

However, there is still some regret: "If we can get more information about the sun disk, maybe we can analyze more things, maybe we have those strange things that have been extinct in history, the so-called sun god religion, and we can analyze it. More granular results."

"This..." Kant frowned: "I remember that there was a sun disc in the ruins on the top of the mountain and the ruins of the temple at the bottom of the mountain. Didn't you study it in Aaron?"

"Uh, it is."

The wizards looked at each other.

Looking at each other, they were all dumbfounded: "We are just assisting the defense in Aaron, dealing with some magical creatures, and we have not observed those strange objects that have not been identified in detail..."

"Not yet authenticated?" Kant frowned.

"It's those strange objects that don't know their purpose yet."

The Master replied: "For example, those strange objects in the castle, including the sun disc, have been identified. When we touched them, we all understood the function of this thing in our hearts."

"I see." Kant nodded, it should be the role of the system.

The Master continued to explain: "However, we have studied solar disks before, so we have the ability to identify similar disks and can easily identify them and find out the power they contain. If we get more solar disks , maybe we can really develop special spells that gather positive energy, and use these strange objects that contain positive energy to fight against the dead sky with extremely negative energy of the undead race."

"That's it, let's go to Aaron!"

Kant makes a decision.

Rolf next to him frowned and suggested, "Lord Kant, what about these prisoners?"

"Let the cavalry take it back!"

Kant waved his hand and commanded in a deep voice, "Let all the prisoners look south."

"Yes." Rolf responded, this order was strange, but he still chose to obey.

I will be back soon.

"It's all set," Rolfe reported.

"Um."

Kant nodded, but a dialog box appeared in his eyes.

With his determination, the data flow spread, and the 500 Swadian light infantrymen lined up in the north were instantly wrapped by these data flows, and after just a few seconds, they suddenly stretched, and it seemed that there was a huge change.

After the data flow disappeared, it was not the light infantry who appeared on the north side.

But 500 cavalry with horses and chainmail.

Swadian Heavy Cavalry!

This is the upgrade of the arms, from level 3 light infantry to level 4 heavy cavalry, the entire Calradia continent, the best defense, the best equipment, the strongest level 4 heavy cavalry!

And it's still a full 500 people!
