Chapter 276. Mage's room for moderation

The mage stood in front of Kant with great respect, bowing his head and bowing his waist, very humble.

With such a large number of great knights eyeing him, his so-called pride and pride as a mage had actually flown away with his dead companions.

It's just groveling, as long as you can live.

Therefore he intends to say all about Kant's problems as long as he knows them.

Very cooperative.

Kant nodded in satisfaction.

Riding on his own warhorse, the sword of the king has been re-sheathed.

But as a superior person, the momentum and the power of victory made the mage's forehead break out in a cold sweat, obviously he was very afraid of Kant and the big knights around him.

The mage is already weaker than the Great Knight in melee combat.

The battlefield has been cleared.

The Svadian knights had already laid the bodies together.

Including the two sections that have been burnt, the rich smell of blood mixed with the stench of burning, which permeates the nose and smells very unpleasant.

The mage swept over these corpses, they were all familiar figures, although they had only known each other for a week, and there were even some frictions and grudges, but these guys had just turned into corpses and been slaughtered like lambs, which still made him feel a throbbing of fear in his heart, and he turned his head to look to the side.

For his unbearable appearance, the corners of Kant's mouth curled up with a smile, reached out and took out a handkerchief in his arms, covered his mouth and nose to temporarily avoid the smell of corpses, and asked sullenly: "Who are they?" ”

"They... They..."

The mage opened his mouth to answer, but his lips trembled and he didn't know what to say.

He's just joined.

It's just a temporary attempt to join this assassination team for profit.

As for these 7 raiders with the level of great knights, as well as the 2 top archers, in fact, he didn't know them at all, but this mage looked up at Kant and the surrounding big knights staring at him, and his heart trembled, he didn't know this word, and he couldn't say anything.

He couldn't say it, but Kant was not surprised.

Looking at the appearance, you can see that they are not a long-term run-in team, but more like a team spliced together in a short period of time.

"Don't recognize?"

Kant asked, still covering his mouth and nose.

"Yes." The mage swallowed and foamed, his tone trembling.

The speculative rage did not appear.

Kant looked at him and continued to ask: "I used to study in the academy not far from the mage tower of the Duchy of Lion, and I know many faces of mages, but you are very rusty, my memory is very good, I can be sure that you have never appeared in the mage tower of the Duchy of Lion, and you don't look like a mage inside the mage tower, which makes me very puzzled." ”

"I'm a wandering mage, from the Kingdom of the Silver Platter."

The mage hurriedly replied: "The Holy Church of the Silver Plate Kingdom has fully begun to expel the mage forces this year, and the mage tower we are in cannot be maintained, so we can only choose to evacuate. After hesitating for a moment, he continued: "I'm just a supernumerary mage, not a lineage mage who doesn't belong to their mage tower, so I had to be abandoned when I was evacuated, and I came to the Lion Duchy to fend for myself, looking for a place to stay. ”

"Well, that's right." Kant nodded, he also knew something about the inside story of the Silver Plate Kingdom, the Holy See, which believed in the God of Light, was indeed expelling the forces of the non-Holy See.

For example, the Mage Tower, which also wields supernatural powers, is within the scope of expulsion.

This is due to the historical reasons of the Silver Plate Kingdom.

After all, when this country was founded, it was supported and established by the Holy See, so the rights of the pope are comparable to those of the king, it is a country with a system of integration of church and state, and it also has its own knights of the protectorate, which belongs to the top religious armament.

There is such a saying in the Kingdom of the Silver Platter.

The body to the king and the soul to the light.

The meaning is obvious, the king and his aristocratic forces have the right to rule over the kingdom and the people, and the Holy See is the pillar of faith of the people and even the nobility, and the two sides have occasional dirty, but there has been no conflict.

But where there are people, there is fighting.

The aristocratic forces are not reconciled, and their rights are really divided with the Holy See.

The mage power is the object of the nobles' wooing, after all, the mage who has the power of the elements is much stronger in terms of destructive power than the priest who has the healing magic and various restoration magic techniques, and the magic of destruction and destruction.

The two sides colluded to bring down the position of the Holy See.

But for now.

Apparently the Holy See won the final victory, and throughout the country, the mages were completely expelled.

This was also allowed by the king.

Perhaps there are compromises as well.

The matter of the Silver Plate Kingdom naturally had nothing to do with Kant, but he had a slight impression of the mage in front of him, nodded with satisfaction, and asked the last question.

"Do you know the employer?" Kant asked.

"Employer..."

The mage clearly did not have the work ethic of an assassin.

He was not an Assassin either.

After hesitating for a moment, he said to Kant: "My employer seems to be the Eastern County Commander from the Lion Principality, and the person I negotiated with was just an ordinary gentleman, but I think the real employer must be hidden behind it." ”

"East Commander." Kant narrowed his eyes: "This is really unexpected. ”

He thought it would be the southern county leader, and then the northern county leader.

The employer from Dongjun Collar still didn't expect it.

After all, compared to the nobles of the southern counties, who are full of enemies, the nobles of the northern counties, who are currently greedy for salt mines, have been closed for 10 years, and the relationship between the eastern county lords and Kant is still in a neutral state.

There is no grudge, no goodwill, and likewise no connection.

"Lord Baron Kant."

The mage swallowed and spat, and hesitated, "That's all I know, can you let me go?" I'm just an ordinary wandering mage, and I've had a conflict with these teammates, and I released the wall of fire, which was also not directed at your team, but just blocked your path, so you and I should have room for mitigation. ”

"Well, I know very well." Kant nodded, he was telling the truth, and said, "I won't kill you." ”

"Thank you so much for your kindness!"

The mage immediately bowed down excitedly.

But before he could lift it, the golden light was shining, and a mace hit the back of his head instantly, and the whole head was like a burst watermelon, red and white splashed on the ground, and his body fell down heavily.

"But someone will kill you."

Kant's words fell, and he said calmly: "You know too much. ”

The royal knight who wielded the mace next to him dismounted and threw aside the corpse of the mage whose head had exploded and shattered, while the knight dismounted and quickly searched for any valuable items on these corpses.

Kant rode to the side.

The smell of corpses mixed with the smell of blood, very strong, made him a little disgusted.

It was his decision to kill this mage.

Although his own strength is all elite, when he has not yet digested the fruits of his current victory and developed into a behemoth in an all-round way, Kant does not intend to let his power be known to outsiders.

A slight show of muscles is enough to arouse the vigilance of those with evil intentions.

But show absolute force.

It is not submission that greets oneself, but all kinds of hostility.

Kant was not ready to completely tear his face with those nobles of the Lion Duchy.

Now his entire force is no more than 2,000 people.

Even if you can break through the Solid Stone Pass, successfully enter the Lion Principality, or even capture the barren Northern Commandery, and attack the Eastern Commander and the Southern Commandery, the next rule is particularly weak.

A mere 2,000 people, full of 5,000 troops, all conscripted into 5,000 troops.

Can you completely rule the entire Principality of Lion?

That's impossible.

It's even less realistic!

Without 5,000 regular troops and 30,000 civilians, Kant would not have waged a war that would destroy the country.

At present, his troops are mainly strategic defense and tactical offense.

There is no problem in holding on to the Narun Desert.

Secretly plotting the Lion Principality, just as he now let Manid infiltrate the Solid Stone Pass and let the bankrupt businessman Borg return to the East County Territory to develop offline, boil frogs in warm water, and slowly control the Lion Principality in his hands.

With the help of the system, Kant was able to do it with ease.

The knights searched the body.

Coming behind Kant, he reported: "My lord, we have obtained a total of 1 staff, 2 parchment scrolls with incantations, and 300 large silver coins with us, as for the war horses they are riding, they seem to have exhausted their energy, and they are all exhausted behind the sand dunes, and they have no value. ”

"Yes, got it." Kant nodded.

These are his trophies, which are naturally to be looted.

Just as he wanted to continue to lead the team away, a large number of cavalry appeared in the sand dunes to the south.

It should be a large-scale cavalry team advancing, although the sound has not yet come, but there is a lot of wind and dust behind him, galloping at great speed, and the yellow fine sand and dust are filled in the air.

The knights suddenly regrouped around Kant.

It's just that the alert was quickly lifted.

The cavalry that arrived in the distance were desert bandits and Salander riders.

Rolf is leading the race.

Seeing the corpses at the feet of Kant and the knights, his face was a little embarrassed, and he fiercely whipped the war horse under his crotch and rushed over, and asked Kant eagerly: "Lord Kant, you are not injured, are you?" We're late! ”

"It's okay."

Kant nodded, not blaming Rolf.

Most of these attackers have extraordinary strength, and it is estimated that Rolf will not be able to solve these attackers if they catch up and rush over, but will definitely suffer tragic casualties, and if they win, they will probably win a miserable victory!

This is the suppression of the class level.

After a few words, Rolf was relieved to see that there were no casualties.

However, turning his head to look at those corpses, he also had a little palpitations about the combat effectiveness of the great knight.

I couldn't help but say to Kant: "This world has this kind of power, I don't dare to imagine what kind of danger my cavalry will face if they encounter these 10 guys." ”

"If you encounter them in the future and have no advantage, retreat immediately."

Kant said calmly: "The main thing is to preserve strength. ”

"Yes." Rolf sighed lightly, a rare gloom on his face.

After all, this kind of terrifying combat power is indeed unacceptable to him from the original world of history.

"That's right." Kant said: "Since you are here, then I will give you 3 Swadia royal knights, they are all top knights comparable to these big knights, with great strength, even if you encounter this kind of big knight again, I think it can temporarily alleviate the predicament of the central station." ”

"Thank you for your help." Rolf was overjoyed.
