Chapter 369. The eagerness of the central station
Since Kant decided, there would be no hesitation or procrastination.
The Sentry Oasis is already well built, even after the destruction of the undead troops, the reconstruction work is very easy, and it only needs to be rebuilt according to the previous plan to reproduce the scene of the past.
In contrast, it is more important to remain vigilant and always be vigilant from the north.
Of course, this is already the sole responsibility of Bandak.
This apostle of the underworld is worth the money.
At least under his leadership, the skeletons that remained on the Narun Desert were easily swept away.
Now, almost every moment, there is a patrol team of desert bandits quickly skimming through the desert, and once they find something abnormal, they will call the Mamluks, who are also patrolling in the rear.
By the time the Mamluks, dressed in Salander chain mail and armed with steel shields and spears, arrived, all threats would be extinguished.
Only broken bones were left on the ground.
Handed over the sentry oasis to them, Kant was relieved.
For now, you just need to hold on.
Although the undead retreated.
But who knows if they have a backhand.
In order to ensure safety, Kant did not send troops to the salt mine station to recover the fallen salt mines, in order to be vigilant and avoid being attacked by the voice, so as to take advantage of the situation to capture the castle of "Drehem".
No one is a fool, and there will be intrigues on the battlefields of this world as well.
The Elder Gods are not stupid either.
Can fight against the abyss demons for thousands of years and still die together, how can they be fools.
The rise of mankind is to rely on the two former top forces to consume each other and benefit from it, if you really underestimate these former world hegemons, then you really don't know how to die.
At the very least, according to Kant's current understanding, those undead ancient gods are wise.
And they are still looking for ways to truly resurrect themselves.
Don't be careful!
Having Bandak in charge of garrisoning this place can be regarded as reassuring, after all, with the power of the underworld, the combat effectiveness of this strongest general is not comparable to a dozen or so extraordinary knights.
Maybe in the legend, the pinnacle of the knight level can be compared to the extraordinary knight.
Knight.
Grand Knight.
Transcendent Knight.
There are three major levels of force among the nations of mankind.
Knights are just regular forces, representing worldly control.
The Great Knight is beyond the norm, equal to strong combat effectiveness, and is the elite of the troops, who can lead the troops to victory with one enemy and one hundred.
As for the Transcendent Knights, that's pure legend.
No one has ever seen it.
It is said that the founding Grand Duke of the Lion Principality was a transcendent knight.
That is, Kant's ancestors, so in terms of blood, they are stronger than other nobles, and they are more noble.
In the faint legends of the Lion Principality, they all point to the Lion Castle, the top military fortress of the kingdom, and in the political and military center, there is a transcendent knight stationed as the foundation for the suppression of the Duchy.
Otherwise, the Yinpan Kingdom, which is several times stronger than the national strength, would have led a large army to come and annex it!
I just thought it was a rat trap.
This is not a secret.
In fact, the Duchy of Lion also indulges in the spread of this kind of news, intentionally or unintentionally.
Of course, no one has ever seen the extraordinary knights of the Lion Principality, and no one has seen what the combat power of the top of the knight class is, but those famous extraordinary knights in history are all powerful existences.
And the transcendent knights of mythology, even gods and demons are feared!
Exactly how Kant is not clear.
But now he has really confronted the so-called gods.
Extraordinary knight, he didn't have this top combat power, but Kant was still not afraid.
Bhandak, the apostle of the underworld, is not a joke to fully burst into 1000% combat power, even if there is an extraordinary knight appearing, he can fight against it, and even faintly suppress it.
This has already been shown in previous campaigns.
For example, those Death Knights.
In the decisive battle, no death knight who has the power of necromancy can make 2 moves in front of Bandak.
If the terrifying power of the underworld is substantial, the terrifying demonic phantom behind it seems to be really the projection of the supreme demon lord in the underworld of the Pande continent.
No one can stop Bandak, maybe not even the legendary Transcendent Knight!
So Kant was reassured.
The entire castle of "Drehem" has been given carte blanche to Bandak.
As for himself, he only led 30 lion knights, lightly armed, and a caravan led by Manid to the central post station to see how patient the merchants who were waiting at the post station at this time still had.
The merchants who could stay were certainly patient, and Kant didn't mind continuing to sweeten them.
It's like the spices he carries at this time.
………………
The group trekked through the Naren Desert.
At this time in the desert, a solid road has long appeared.
The caravans followed this path, and the sand was firmly trodden, and although it was the most rudimentary dirt road, it would be buried by a sandstorm, but the Narun Desert rarely had abnormal weather.
The last sandstorm was a complete accident, and it may be described as a man-made anomaly.
The reason for the mage's apprenticeship.
Not for long.
In a little more than half a day, they rounded the undulating sand dunes and came to the desert plain.
In the middle, a two-story post station is standing there, but on the north and south sides of the post station, there are many more tents set up, although it seems to be ordinary, in fact it is completely different, as if it is distinct.
The tents on the south side are of different forms, and the construction plan is a little chaotic.
Many of them came in and out at will, or led horses, or carried things, which was very messy.
It was a makeshift camp for the merchants of the Lion Principality.
And the north side is different.
The unified tent, with a militarized management style, is clearly organized, and there are soldiers with spears standing guard among them, and there is not the slightest trace of chaos in sight.
Because that's where the Salanders are stationed.
The direct source on which Rolf relied to deter the enemy from daring to cross the central line!
"Here we are."
Kant takes off the hood from his head.
Looking at the desert bandits who were already aware of the danger in front of him, the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "Manid, after you go, let's have a good chat with those merchants first, and at the same time tell them about our new goods." ”
"Understood." Manid nodded, "They'll know." ”
"Hmm."
Kant nodded, but still commanded: "If you can, you can win over some merchants." After a pause, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Let them pass the word to the masters behind them, and tell them that I, His Royal Highness Kant, am still the second in line to the throne of the Lion Principality, and I am still qualified to enter the Lion Castle." ”
"Don't worry, Lord Kant, it's all going to work out perfectly."
Manid nodded.
For him, the political struggle is just as simple.
Not to mention, it is just a matter of communication, and the merchant is naturally good at the art of language.
As the Nords, warlike and seafaring and trading peoples, they also have a high degree of enthusiasm for politics, after all, when they first came to the continent of Calradia, they lost the battle, and instead of directly destroying the kingdom of Svadia, they were dragged by both Vekia and Svadia, and when they could not advance or retreat from the coastline, they also resorted to political means.
It worked well, and they took advantage of the mutual jealousy and distrust between the Kingdom of Vekia and the Kingdom of Svadia, and finally gained a foothold in the continent of Calradia, and the reputation of the Nord Kingdom was completely established.
Sometimes force doesn't solve too many problems.
The brain is also very important.
And those Nords who crisscross the world, sometimes as merchants, sometimes as pirates, and sometimes as mercenaries, are even more proficient in this way, and between the Nord mainland and the continent of Calradia, the mix is getting better and better.
"Let's go, meet Rolf."
Kant rode forward.
The sentry oasis was blocked by the undead, and it is estimated that the news has been obtained here.
If Kant hadn't been in contact with Rolf in advance and asked him to insist on holding the central station, and if he hadn't been in contact for one month before he was allowed to send someone to the sentry oasis to investigate, it is estimated that this fierce rogue nobleman would have sent someone over long ago.
Rolf was not afraid of the undead, and he did a lot of immoral things.
His belief in God was even less than his belief in the Dinar.
Kant is an exception, of course.
If he really can't detect the news of the Sentry Oasis, he will definitely organize all the desert bandits and Salander riders under his command, abandon the central station, and go back to the rescue.
This is the guarantee of absolute loyalty!
"Lord Kant!"
Rolf personally led the team to greet him.
The towering watchtower can quickly spot the team that is coming, not to mention that Kant and they are not covered, and the camel team composed of 50 camels is not so easy to hide and hide, and even those merchants can see it at this time.
One by one, they all walked out of the tent, looking eagerly at the camels laden with table salt.
However, the faces of individual people also changed slightly.
They don't know what the hell has happened to them in the depths of the Narun Desert.
However, they did not see until the salt trade, which occurred every two weeks, had been interrupted once, which was impossible for the central post station, which had established perfect trade rules.
The merchants understood in their hearts, but their faces were calm.
But in their minds, they are speculating.
However, no matter how they guessed, they would never have imagined the fact that Kant had already defeated hundreds of thousands of undead troops, all of whom were directly defeated and destroyed by him.
The gods and demons have disappeared, and the world is dominated by humans and other major races.
It's all legend.
Although there are occasional undead appearances, it is harmless.
Ordinary lords can easily destroy these zombies, skeletons, etc., which are infected with negative energy and get up again, with extremely poor combat effectiveness and extremely slow movements.
But they can't imagine how terrifying the zombies are when the real undead gather.
That's really a scourge of the dead!
"Okay."
Kant and Rolf talk.
After simply listening to the report here, looking at the eager businessmen in the distance, the corners of his mouth curled: "Yes, since they are so obedient, then we will not treat them badly." ”
"Of course, they have to be obedient." Rolf gave his trademark grin.
Appropriate force is also the best factor for maintaining stability.
